Moderate rain continued for two hours and fell at dusk. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info a touch of thieves sprinkled on the horizon. The ancient temple on the marble mountain is reflected with indescribable solemnity and desolation.

On the stone platform at the side entrance of the ancient temple stood a tall middle-aged man with abrupt cheekbones, slowly smoking a cigarette, staring at the dazzling stones and lush forests under the marble mountain less than a thousand meters high, and his eyes were full of heavy worry because of his emaciation. A gust of wind blew, and the white and gray cloth uniform on his body swayed in the wind, outlining his tall body even more thin.

The guard, who was no longer equipped with a gun, walked lightly behind the middle-aged man: "Chairman, Comrade Li Xiaolong, deputy director of the Political Department of the Red First Army, came to visit you, outside the side door, to see or not to see?" ”

The long soot of the cigarette on the chairman's fingertips broke and spilled with a slight surprise, and he slowly turned around and glanced at the side door obscured by the corner of the red wall:

"Isn't he commanding operations at the front? How can you have time to meet me? ”

"Deputy Director Li had gauze wrapped around his head, and he was put on a splint with his right arm hanging, and it seemed that the injury was not light, and his complexion was very bad. I saw that he was a warrior carrying him up the mountain, like his guard, and when he entered the mountain gate and reached the high hill under the temple, he asked the warrior to stay there, and he came up and knocked on the door with a big burden. He said that when he arrived at Yeping, he learned that the central government organs had moved to the ancient temple of Yunshi Mountain, and he also said, "He also said that the Military Commission and the General Headquarters were in a meeting, and he couldn't see acquaintances asking for directions along the way, so he asked the officers on duty of the Shanxia Security Bureau, and only then did he know that the chairman lived on the mountain."

The guard said a long paragraph sadly, feeling sorry for the chairman. Not only did the much-ostracized chairman lose the command of the Red Army more than two years ago, but soon because of the establishment of the Council of People's Commissars, even the power of the last chairman of the Soviets was gone, and none of the ideas put forward by the chairman in the past two years were adopted, except that at the turn of spring and summer, he took the initiative to reduce his daily supply of two or two meters to support the front-line soldiers. Not even a ghost came to the door. My task was to eat, sleep, and poop okay, my head wasn't chopped off.

Now that someone has visited, and it is Li Xiaolong, deputy director of the political department of the Red First Army, who has been highly valued, the chairman and the guards have been somewhat surprised and puzzled.

He Zizhen, whose stomach was already bulging, heard the conversation and hurriedly came out, gently holding the chairman's arm and saying that he was about to have dinner, there was nothing good, so invite the guests in to eat together. The chairman smiled slightly and nodded in agreement, walked to the side door, greeted Li Xiaolong who was waiting at the door, stretched out his rough hand, and showed a bright smile: "Xiao Li, injured?" ”

Li Xiaolong was carrying a large coarse cloth burden in his left hand, hanging his right hand on his chest, looking at the chairman's outstretched hand, and smiling awkwardly: "In the battle of Guangchang on July 9, I was bombarded by Luo Zhuoying's mortar, and I only appeared in the rear hospital after waking up. ”

The chairman gently held Li Xiaolong's shoulders and invited him in kindly: "It's better to come early than to come by chance, eat together, talk while eating, I still have a big bowl of sauerkraut here, haha!" ”

After entering the door, Li Xiaolong politely greeted He Zizhen, glanced at He Zizhen's arms and face that were swollen due to malnutrition, sighed softly, put the burden on the table, opened it with one hand, and took out a cardboard box:

This is a special anti-inflammatory drug produced by the Xiangxi Pharmaceutical Factory and a good medicine for the treatment of paralysis and disorders. This wooden box is a good thing

"Radio? OMG! Such extravagance, "still, Jiangnan brand." How did that liaison get through the tight blockade of the Kuomintang troops around the Soviet zone? ”

The chairman pointed to the brand-new radio, and was momentarily surprised.

Li Xiaolong said with a smile: "The liaison officer of the Sichuan-Hunan-Hubei border area left Lao Nanchang early at this time, and it is our own liaison officer, who was originally the regiment-level staff officer of our first division, and after taking over Li Heng in charge of the traffic station, he has been hiding in the old Nanchang Hongcun, which I personally brought out back then, of course, there is a way to send it in, he was very happy to meet me unexpectedly when he arrived at the political department of the legion, so he asked me to bring these things, and also conveyed the greetings of the liaison officer of the Sichuan-Hunan-Hubei border region to the chairman before going back."

"Chairman, guess who sent the liaison from the Xiangxi region?"

"It can't be Hebeard, right? He has just been a Liangshan hero in Zhongxian County, Sichuandong, and he is estimated to have made a fortune. You sit down, Xiao Li, sit down and say slowly, I'm so happy to see you, I said goodbye last time, it's been almost two years, right? The chairman smiled wryly.

Li Xiaolong sighed in his heart, nodded and sat down, and then said: "The chairman guessed wrong, it is not Commander He, but Huang Han, who has grown rapidly for more than a year and has not lost a battle. ”

"Huang Han? Is it the fierce general under Zhang Dehuai's original command? The chairman's gaze left the radio and stared at Li Xiaolong intently.

"That's right, it's him, he specially sent a liaison officer this time, walked nearly 2,000 kilometers, and traveled for more than 20 days to find the old Nanchang traffic station, and was almost eliminated by our intelligence officers because of a misunderstanding. He entrusted our traffic station with a summary of the work of the independent division in the Sichuan-Hunan-Hubei border area, as well as a thick complaint report written by 76 party members, all of whom were suspicious party members who had fled from various regiments or had been expelled from various regiments during the anti-rebellion movement, and who, under the leadership of Huang Han, the division commander, had created their own base from scratch.

After the Political Department presented it to Secretary Zhou, Comrade Bogu thought that it was under the jurisdiction of the Military Commission, so he seized it, and I could only send the medicine that he had personally entrusted to hand over the medicine. Li Xiaolong finished counting his things and motioned to the chairman to look at them.

The chairman opened the medicine and looked at it, nodded and said that it was really a good thing, took out two vials of dysentery and anti-inflammatory tablets and handed them to He Zizhen beside him, closed the box again, the battery box was not touched, and he caressed the smooth radio shell lovingly, and sighed:

"I remember that this kind of radio was produced by the factory owned by Commander An Yi of the model battalion where you once stayed, and it became popular all over the country as soon as it came out! We have one in the central government office, and it's still the kind of old-fashioned one that was produced in three years, which is twice as big as this one, and it is not as delicate and beautiful as this one. I'd love to hear about it! I haven't been able to see a newspaper for three months. ”

Li Xiaolong was extremely sad in his heart, stood up and opened the back cover of the radio with his left hand, and quickly went from the old west to the electricity! Take out three batteries and stuff them in. Close the skewer and unscrew the front screw switch... Cao Za's electric current soon found the channel, which happened to broadcast the second half of "Ostrich Bell", the most popular song in the Kuomintang and Communist Army:

"Mountains and waters. Revolutionary careers often break up, the same and two loves. Comrades-in-arms, dear brothers, beware of the cold wind in the middle of the night, take care of yourself all the way"

After another beautiful prelude to pure music, the pleasant voice of the female announcer of South Sichuan Radio came again:

"South Sichuan People's Radio News Station, the following is the 7 p.m. news reporting time, first broadcast today's news summary: The Central Government Disaster Relief Committee held an emergency disaster relief meeting in Lushan, and General An Yi, a member of the Central Supervisory Committee and alternate member of the Central Executive Committee, officially announced that he would accept the appointment of the central government and serve as the executive deputy director of the National Disaster Relief Committee from now on, and expressed five suggestions for disaster relief at the meeting; Our reporter interviewed on the spot, and General He Chengjun, the head of the Wuhan camp, personally inspected Zhongxian County in Dongchuan, and was determined to exterminate the Huang Han and He Long divisions of the Sichuan, Hunan, and Hubei ** Red Army within two months; According to the news from the front line of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Suppression of Bandits, the headquarters of General Wang Zhulong of the Sixth Route Army of the Sichuan Army Suppression General Headquarters is in Qinglong Pass, Wanyuan, Sichuan. fought fiercely with Zhang Guozhuo, Xu Xiangqian, and He Weibu of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Red Army for two days, and unfortunately lost; News from our Yunnan reporter: General Zhan Huanqi, commander of the security forces of the Yunnan Army, once again stated to reporters from Europe and the United States the regulations on the control of prisoners of war; Central News Agency Jiangxi Frontline News. Twelve fighters of the Air Force once again bombed Ruijin, where the headquarters of the main force was located...... Listen to the detailed report below

A dim oil lamp was lit in the small hall, He Zizhen picked out the wick with a needle, sat down with the chairman, and listened quietly to the news broadcast with the chairman, Li Xiaolong and the guards, until the end of the half-hour news report, and the melodic advertising music came, and everyone took a long breath and came back to their senses.

"Xiao Li, save electricity, turn off the radio, eat first, your stomach is tight" little ghost. You go out first, and beckon Deputy Director Li's guards to deal with you next door for a meal. ”

The chairman smiled and ordered, and the guard answered, stood up and slid his gaze over the radio. Reluctantly left.

Li Xiaolong turned off the radio, took the chopsticks handed by He Zizhen, glanced at a large bowl of fried sauerkraut that had been cold, a dish of dry fried spicy fish and a bowl of boiled vegetables, and then looked at the small half bowl of aged rice in the rough big bowl in the chairman's hand, sighed secretly, lowered his head three times and two times to finish the rice in the bowl, refused He Zizhen to add rice to himself, put down the chopsticks, and looked at the chairman who was eating slowly.

The chairman smiled slightly, put down his rice bowl, picked up a piece of spicy newspaper and put it in his mouth, and asked while eating: "It is estimated that the front line will not be able to eat a meal of sauerkraut, why don't you eat more?" ”

"Chairman, if you continue like this, your body won't be able to bear it, these vegetables don't smell much salt, and there is no oil at all, look at Comrade Zizhen, what kind of swelling has become like this, it's not okay to go on like this! I'll report to the top when I get back. Li Xiaolong said sadly. The chairman laughed: "Isn't it good for me to be like this?" How many people can't even reach the level of me, what else is there to complain about? Besides, now that all the strong laborers in all counties and townships have gone to the front line, there are only old and weak women and children left in thousands of households, which is difficult! Originally, I had been strongly opposed to the so-called expansion of the army by one million, and the dogmatic "fortress against fortress against the enemy outside the country." and so on, but no one listened to me, and now it has been proved that such a blind operation will not work.

"The so-called expansion of the army by one million has not only seriously affected agricultural production, but has also increased the burden of military logistics supply by two or three times, and has not been helpful in military operations at all.

Young men who have never undergone military training are pulled to the front line. How do you let these honest peasants fight? Isn't it nonsense? Since the founding of our Red Army, when have we been so reckless? Confused! ”

He Zizhen patted her excited husband worriedly, then stood up and walked quickly to the door. He looked around cautiously, turned his head and whispered: "Be quiet, no matter how loud you shout, no one will listen to you, and you will be infamous for accusing the Central Committee and negative revolution."

Li Xiaolong sighed: "I'm also confused now, compared with the Huang Han Department in the Sichuan-Hunan-Hubei Border Region that insisted on movement warfare and guerrilla warfare, I have now started from the fourth anti-encirclement and suppression, and the guiding ideology of our Red Army from all walks of life has been problematic, and now it has reached the point where it cannot be cleaned up. Become a formidable military force to be reckoned with in the revolutionary camp.

However, at this time, our Central Committee still refused to restore Comrade Huang Han's honor and party membership even though it found out that there had been serious mistakes in the interrogation of Comrade Huang Han that year. Instead, we do everything possible to bury our mistakes, and this is not our party's style! Chairman, to be honest, I feel very disappointed now, there is nothing to fight, and there is no fear of the dead, for so many years, I have fought one battle after another, and the comrades-in-arms around me have almost changed" However, I have never fought such a sloppy and hopeless battle, and the wrong line has harmed people a lot! ”

The chairman took a deep breath, stood up slowly, and put his hand on the back of Li Xiaolong's slightly trembling hand: Xiao Li, I understand your thoughts, but we must not be pessimistic and disappointed, let alone lose confidence in our party, I firmly believe that after a painful teaching, our party and our comrades will one day come to the right path, as long as we persevere, one day we will usher in light, one day we will win the victory! ”

Li Xiaolong stood up and nodded emphatically: "Understood!" Chairman, I lost my temper. It's not too early, I still have to rush back to Shazhouba, there is an important meeting tomorrow morning, and now I can't go to the front line, so I have to do more work in the rear. ”

"Excellent! Xiao Li, bring back the radio and these medicines, I will leave two bottles of medicine is enough, comrades need these things even more. Again, you see, if you have the opportunity, you can compile a copy of Comrade Huang Han's information, and I want to take a good look at how they have come over the past few years. ”

"The ear is these things are,"

"Take it back, now the situation is critical, you decision-making people need to grasp the enemy's every move, even a small mistake is a big loss for the revolutionary soldiers!"

"Chairman"
