The thunder sword was jumped up by the war horse and brought into the water, and the heavy body of the war horse suddenly fell into the water, stirring up a big wave, and the people and the war horse sank to the surface of the water and were submerged by the turbulent sand river torrent.

Wang Xiaoliang and the soldiers standing on the bank of the river only saw the thunder sword and the war horse rushing into the river, but now the people and horses were gone, and they shouted loudly in fright: "Battalion Commander Lei, Battalion Commander Lei——。 ”

A shout was heard far away, but the thunder sword and the war horse still did not rise from under the water.

Just when Wang Xiaoliang and Li Gang were in despair, a horse's head surfaced more than ten meters downstream, but Lei Jian still did not appear, Wang Xiaoliang was about to cry his good brother, brother-in-law, and Lei Battalion Commander with tears in his eyes, and suddenly a head seemed to be exposed in the river waves, and half of Lei Jian's body jumped out of the water suddenly.

Lei Jian was taken down the turbulent sand river by the war horse, but he didn't expect the whirlpool stirred up by the war horse falling into the water, and he was also brought into the water, and finally surfaced, and immediately worried about the soldiers on the shore.

He did not have time to do the ideological work of the soldiers, and ordered loudly: "You have no time, you don't want to die at the hands of the little devils, immediately lead your horse and jump into the Sand River, wade to the west bank, and carry out the order." ”

The soldiers saw that their Lei battalion was not afraid of death, which inspired their pride, and one by one they led their horses and jumped into the tumbling sand river, some floated up, and some were swept away by the turbulent river, I don't know if these soldiers can surface from the downstream and bravely return to the base area.

More than 30 war horses and more than 30 warriors jumped into the turbulent sand river in unison, blocking the downward force of the fierce river water on the bank for a while, and the waves jumped up more and more, falling again, and knocking the horses and soldiers into the water from time to time.

Lei Jian swam to the center of the river, the waves were getting higher and higher, and the river was getting more and more urgent, if he hadn't been downstream of the war horse, he was blocked by the body of the war horse to relieve his pressure from being swept away by the river, he might have been swept far downstream by the turbulent river, and then he would swim to the west bank of the Shahe River.

He was originally a master swimmer, when he was a child before the crossing, every summer, he was naughty, soaked in the reservoir with a group of children all day long, went to college, joined the army, and was in the coastal area, often soaked in the sea water to train, every year in school, there are competitions in the base, Lei Jian is always ranked first.

But at this time, Lei Jian, who crossed over, borrowed a landlubber, and didn't know water at all, not that when he had just crossed over and had not officially joined the Eighth Route Army, he often went to the base area of Wangjialing, the pond in the west of the village to catch fish and eat sashimi, and often went into the water to exercise, I am afraid that at this time, he still doesn't know where he was washed by the turbulent river.

Lei Jian grabbed the horse's mane and leaned out, and when he saw the war horses and warriors rushing downstream, he shouted loudly: "Whether you can water or not, you must tighten the reins of the horse, as long as the war horse reaches the west bank, you can live, it is clear whether you are clear or not." ”

Some soldiers heard it, and just wanted to open their mouths to answer, but they were choked by the wave and almost fainted. It doesn't matter if he keeps thrashing in the water, he still hugs the neck of the war horse, pressing the head of the war horse and sinking into the water again and again.

Lei Jian saw that such a warrior was looking for death, once the war horse was too exhausted to sink into the water and was choked to death, then this warrior would not want to live.

He shouted, "Let go of the horse's neck, pull the reins close to the horse's body, and it will be all right." ”

But some of the warriors were drowsy from the violent beating of the river, and except for hearing the roar of the river, all they wanted was to hold their horses by the neck, and they thought that only in this way could they live.

For these warriors who are not very good at water, not to mention the war horses that can wade across the river, at this time there is no war horse even if there is a straw, they will hold on tightly, this is the most dangerous moment for people, especially the brain is almost in a semi-confused state, and the desire for life is more urgent than ever.

In the tumbling river, the warrior slowly found the power to rely on the war horse to alleviate his poor water quality, borrowed the power of the war horse, and attached himself at will to alleviate the fatigue caused by his struggle in the water and the struggle with the waves.

Lei Jian was the first to swim to the west bank, and the war horse tried several times to poke out the horse's head and land on the shore, but the horse's hooves stepped on the muddy and sunken mire, and the front body had not yet used its strength, and the back half of its body was washed down by the river waves under the impact of the river waves and slid into the water.

Lei Jian didn't dare to let go of the horse's reins, and dragged the war horse up, and was dragged into the water by the war horse several times, climbed up and was dragged down again.

The war horse failed to land several times, which angered the already physically and mentally exhausted war horse, suddenly jumped up in the water, rushed to the shore, flew up with the thunder sword, and fell heavily to the ground.

Lei Jian lay on the ground, still holding the reins tightly in his hands, he was too tired. Just as I wanted to close my eyes and sleep on the ground, even if I gave him ten or eight minutes, he would not be too little.

When he remembered the warriors who were still fighting against the waves in the river, Huo Di jumped up from the ground, led the war horse down the shore and walked downstream, saw the soldiers and war horses that had landed on the shore, and happily took the initiative to shout: "The brothers are still alive, and my thunder sword has congratulated you." ”

Which is this what a unit commander should say at this time? Comfort is not like comfort, ridicule is a little meaningful, this is the simple Lei Jian, how to think and how to behave. Soldiers who like the style of this half-grown child commander, if they don't talk or laugh for a while, they feel that Lei Jian has grown up, and if they ignore them, they will feel lost.

Lei Jian took the soldiers who went ashore, walked downstream along the river, and just kept walking, about two miles away, and there were no warriors and war horses on the river, and Lei Jian began to get nervous at this time.

Li Gang walked to Lei Jian's side, just wanted to ask a question and held back, he knew that Wang Xiaoliang and several soldiers had not come up until now, and looked downstream, there was no shadow in sight, he didn't dare to take the initiative to ask Wang Xiaoliang at this time, where are they now, why can't they see anyone, where can they die?

Lei Jian couldn't control it anymore, the personality of this half-grown child was completely revealed, he made his hands into a trumpet shape, and cried to the river one by one: "Wang Xiaoliang, where are you, why don't you come out quickly, come out for me quickly——。 ”

The soldiers listened to the hoarse cries of their Lei battalion commander, and one by one they called out to the river with tears in their eyes: "Deputy Battalion Commander Wang——, my good brothers, where are you, come back quickly——。 ”

Lei Jian suddenly jumped onto the horse, whipped the war horse fiercely, clamped the horse's belly tightly with his legs, and rushed towards the lower reaches of the Sand River.

Li Gang ordered: "Get on the horse and follow Camp Commander Lei." ”

Lei Jian rushed out of the downstream horse and found two warriors on the bank, but the war horse was washed away by the river, and Wang Xiaoliang was still missing.

Li Gang, who followed up, suddenly shouted: "Battalion Commander Lei, you see that there are many heads on the river, they, they don't know if it is my first company, or the soldiers of the sixth and ninth companies led by Deputy Battalion Commander Niu, have swam over from the east bank of the river. ”

Lei Jian looked at the heads of the people who were floating on the river, some of them could continue to swim forward in the ups and downs, and some of them sank and never surfaced again, they had been swept away by the merciless waves of the river, and they didn't know where to take his good comrades-in-arms and good brothers.

His heart is like a knife, such a good soldier, on the battlefield of killing the enemy, there is no blood-stained battlefield, but in this surging river water, they are not as heroic as the battlefield of death, but they take their lives to fight for the bottom line of life, that is, they must live, and they can kill devils fiercely if they live, such tragic and touching deeds are just as brilliant.

Lei Jian stood on the shore, wishing that he could become a bodhisattva of all beings, and a breath of immortal qi could save countless lives.

He didn't dare to have such great ability, as long as he could ask him to say a word, he could fly the warrior who was fighting against the rough river to the shore, and once it came true, let alone make him believe in God, even if he believed in anything, he would not hesitate to believe anything.

There is no god, let alone a savior, only to save himself, the extravagant hope in Lei Jian's heart is just an extremely unrealistic wish, he is an atheist, but at this time, if the sky is affectionate, if the god has a spirit, it really saved his warriors, is Lei Jian still an atheist?

But all of this disappeared in Lei Jian's consciousness and eyes, and he stared intently at the roaring water.
