Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Yan'an (2)

Zhang Pei suppressed his surging emotions, held back tears, and said: "Comrades, the Party Central Committee has safely withdrawn from Yan'an. Comrades, don't worry, the brigade head conveyed: Chairman Mao continues to command the National People's Liberation War in northern Shaanxi, And personally command us; Chairman Mao is with us..." The second squad leader Ma Quanyou suddenly stood up and shouted: "Report! Instructor, let me say a word. I... We Communists, revolutionary soldiers, day and night Came from Shanxi, came... came to defend the Party Central Committee, Chairman Mao, and...to defend Yan'an... Now... what kind of Communist Party members are we? What kind of revolutionary fighters?"

A soldier shouted: "Instructor! For our Chairman Mao... order! Go fight, go fight the enemy! " The thunderous voices of the soldiers exploded: "Fight it! Fight it!" "Let's go all out! Fight!" "Fighting...fighting...fighting..." "For the Party Central Committee...we...go to recover Yan'an...go...go..." "For Chairman Mao..." "Go!...go..." "The Central Committee of the Party...Chairman Mao...Chairman Mao...Yan'an..." "I...I will fight to the death...I will also...let our Party Central Committee return to Yan'an. If I, if I die in the battle Yes, you regained Yan'an, and wrote a letter to Chairman Mao for me, saying that a Communist Party member died... He, he did not defend Yan'an... I will always be sad..." This is the cry of Li Jiangguo, a light machine gun shooter Voice.The cries turned into shouts, and the shouts into oaths.The stronger the wind, the louder the oath.

Zhang Pei said: "Comrades, don't be sad, don't cry, listen to me. Comrades! We love the Party Central Committee and Chairman Mao, we should..." The soldiers shouted: "Defend the Party Central Committee... Chairman Mao..." The shouts were like rolling thunder.The strong winds on the hilltops and rolling in the ditches carried the roar far away. Zhang Pei said: "Comrades! There is no need. We will not stick to one city or one place... As long as we wipe out the enemy's vital forces, Yan'an can be taken back, and Xi'an will be liberated. American lackeys Chiang Kai-shek and bandits invaded Yan'an. Their victory is that they are going to death faster... Comrades! Don't be sad, don't cry, but sharpen the bayonet, sharpen the bayonet..." His voice did not fall, and the second squad leader Ma Quan raised his gun , said: "Teacher!

We swear,...we swear: we will regain Yan'an even to the last man! " The soldiers raised their guns one after another, shouting... During the meeting, Wang Huhu, the squad leader, leaned against the ridge and held his gun in his arms, silent.After the meeting was over, he still squatted there motionless.Ma Quanyou gave him a hand and said: "Tiger! Let's go." Wang Huo stood up slowly, still not uttering a word.Ma Quanyou still wanted to ask the tiger a few words, but he knew that Wang Huo would not say anything.Because Wang Huo is the person who can best bury hatred deep in his heart.Fives

On the evening of the second day, Wei Yi, chief of staff of the regiment, and Zhang Pei, the instructor of the first battalion, toured the companies.They came out of a row of cave dwellings where Erlian was stationed, went down the hillside, and walked along the small stream in the valley. Suddenly, a person came up from behind and shouted, "Report!" Zhang Pei looked back, it was so dark that his eyebrows and eyes were unclear.However, Zhang Pei recognized from the stocky figure that this person was Sun Quanhou, the veteran cook of the first company. Zhang Pei asked, "Old Sun, what's the matter with you?"

"Instructor," Lao Sun swallowed. "Instructor, you said, I can only hold a kitchen knife? Well, I can be a combatant. The instructor and comrades said that I am old, even if I am fifty-seven years old... Instructor...I...I am also a party member ...I am eighty years old...At present, everyone is determined to defend the Party Central Committee and Chairman Mao. I want to go to the class. As long as I kill a few enemies with my own hands, I will not be in vain for the party and Chairman Mao to educate me , I am willing to die!" Zhang Pei didn't know what to say for a moment.With his hands behind his back, he rubbed his right foot lightly on the ground.

Wei Yi walked up to Lao Sun and said, "Old Sun, you are very loyal. The party knows this. But cooking is also an indispensable job!" Lao Sun lowered his head in pain and said, "In my heart..." Zhang Pei took his hand and said, "Old Sun, your idea is right. If a person wants to live a promising life, he should stand at the forefront of the struggle." .The people standing at the front, some are holding machine guns, some are holding spatulas. Do you understand what I mean? Okay, you go back and rest!" Old Sun said: "Yes. Instructor...I..." He hesitated for a while, turned around slowly, and walked away.

Wei Yi and Zhang Pei walked side by side on the path in the ravine without saying a word.The two of them thought about Lao Sun's request just now with a feeling of being moved.Lao Sun's voice rang in their ears; Lao Sun's appearance always appeared in front of their eyes. They walked towards the door of the kiln where the light was spitting out.There were loud voices of speech.They walked to the entrance of the cave and saw Zhou Dayong standing by the wall outside the cave, as if thinking about something. Zhang Pei asked: "Zhou Dayong, what kind of meeting are you having?"

"Branch meeting." Zhang Pei stretched his head into the kiln and saw the instructor Wang Chengde speaking.He turned his head and asked, "Why are you standing outside?" Zhou Dayong didn't say anything.He knew that our army had indeed withdrawn from Yan'an for several days, but he always felt that the news was untrue.Sometimes, his mind was in a daze, as if he was having a nightmare when he was half asleep. Zhang Pei said: "Comrade, the war will last for a long time, and we still have to endure a lot of hardships!" Zhou Dayong said with a trembling voice: "Instructor, I understand the truth, but I can't let go... If the enemy defeats us... then admit defeat... But, that's not the case! Yan'an, then It is the place where our Party Central Committee and Chairman Mao live..." Wei Yi asked: "Zhou Dayong, according to you, what should we do? Let's go all out and fight recklessly?

At present on the northwest battlefield, the enemy has mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops, and we have only 20,000 to a few thousand.The enemy is American equipment.What about us?Taking rifles as an example, there are the 38-style of the Japanese devils, and Yan Xishan's Taiyuan-made.Each fighter has only a few bullets.In a word: At present, we can only rely on rifles, bayonets, explosives, grenades and modern equipment of the enemy; moreover, these weapons we use must be taken from the enemy's hands.According to me, you still work patiently and repeatedly explain to the soldiers: As long as we can continue to eliminate the enemy's vital forces, then things will be easy in the future!Zhou Dayong, you must hurry up and do your work, we are going to war soon! "

When Zhou Dayong heard that a war was about to start, his spirits perked up, and he hurriedly said, "Really?" "Really, act tomorrow afternoon." Six The main force of the Northwest Field Army is hidden in the deep ditch behind the mountains on the east and west sides of Qinghuabian. The cadres went to the hills around Qinghuabian to look at the terrain all day long; a few troops were doing fortifications on the hills. The head of the regiment, Zhao Jin, led more than 30 cadres, climbing from one mountain to another, watching around with binoculars; while spreading the map on the ground, the cadres formed a circle and discussed how to deploy and how to attack. After Wei Yi said something, everyone nodded and said, "This is really a good place to ambush." Liu Yuanxing, the commander of the first battalion, took Wei Yi's words and said: "Isn't it? This is Qinghuabian. You see, this is a good terrain that can't be found even with a lantern! As long as the enemy sneaks in, we can catch them all at once." Hold it. Great! Great!" Qinghuabian is located sixty or seventy miles northeast of Yan'an.The Xianyu Highway extends eastward for more than 50 miles from Yan'an to Yaodianzi Village, and then turns north from Yaodianzi Village to extend into the small valley of "Qinghuabian".This ditch is a small river sandwiched between two mountains in the east and west, and the road is parallel to the small river. Zhao Jin led the cadres to climb several hills.He spread the battle map on the ground again, bowing his head in thought.The cadres gathered around Zhao Jin, bent down, and stared at the map. Zhao Jin picked up a twig, pointed to the map, and talked about the planned deployment of troops: "Comrades, our troops are placed on the surrounding mountains. The enemy has entered the ambush circle in the Qinghuabian area, and blocked the enemy from the north." After the troops started, the fraternal troops attacked from both sides. The mission of our regiment is: to block the enemy's rear, cut off the enemy's retreat, and ensure that our main force completely wipes out the enemy's 31st brigade." His eyes swept over the cadres face, and said: "The whole formation is like this." The cadres looked at the surrounding hills, some of them were thinking about what Commander Zhao said; some took out their diaries and wrote something with a pen; some were talking in a low voice: "This pocket is quite good! If the enemy gets in, he must be reimbursed." "But is the enemy going to drill in?" Liu Yuanxing said: "Who is not a fortune teller, but the enemy may just come!" Zhao Jin said: "It's not possible, but definitely coming!" He introduced the enemy's situation again: After Hu Zongnan's bandits occupied Yan'an, they were full of power and prestige, rushing around, yelling, and wanted to find my main force for a "decisive battle" .The enemy regards the small group of troops we lure in Ansaichuan, northwest of Yan'an, as the main force of our army.Therefore, yesterday, more than 50,000 enemies attacked Ansai County to "extinguish" the main force of our army.At the same time, the enemy sent the 31st Brigade and other units to the right to search and advance the Qinghuabian area. Only twenty or thirty miles away. At the end of Zhao Jin's speech, he said: "Comrades, in this way, we have made the enemy obey our command. Now our central task is to turn the intentions of the superiors into the determination of the soldiers, and turn the determination of the soldiers into victory." Judging from the appearance, Zhao Jin is a person who has lived a strict military life for a long time.At all times, his belt straps are neatly tied; his body is straight. He had been injured ten times, lost a lot of blood, and his thin face was a little yellow. Suddenly, Zhao Jin pointed to the hillside to the east and said, "Look! 701① is here." The cadres followed his hand and saw Brigadier Chen leading five or six cadres up the hillside. The brigade commander was sweating, probably he had traveled a lot of hills.With the usual agility of a soldier, he picked up the binoculars and looked around.He saw that on the hill to the west of Qinghuabian, the cadres of the brother army were also looking at the terrain in twos and threes.After looking at it for a while, he hung the belt of the binoculars around his neck, let the mirror hang on his chest, and sternly shouted to the correspondents beside him: "Be careful of concealment, what are you all doing here?" Brigadier Chen put his hands behind his back, looked at Zhao Jin and the cadres, and said: "This cannon must be fired, and the enemy's prestige must be suppressed." He handed the mirror to the guard, patted the dirt on his body, He asked again: "Zhao Jin! How is the terrain?" Commander Zhao stood beside the brigade commander, thought for a while, and said, "Take a preliminary touch. In addition, some troops have been pulled up to start working on fortifications." Brigadier Chen asked about the regiment's fire positions and preparations for troop deployment, and then said to a cadre beside him: "Have you figured out the mission of your regiment? Okay, you can repeat it." The cadre said: "The enemy has entered the ambush circle, and the front is fired. We will cut off the enemy's back route desperately and tie up the pocket." He pointed to the front left and added: "Block the ditch where the enemy comes in ." Brigadier Chen looked forward to the left for four or five minutes.Then asked a cadre next to him; "Where is your best way to attack?" "Cross the hill right in front of you, just keep poking down!" Brigadier Chen thought for a while and asked, "Have you visited it yourself?" "It's so complicated, you can see it through at a glance." "It's so simple? I want to see it myself." Brigadier Chen glanced at Zhao Jin. "Some things in combat seem simple. But the simplest things are often the most complex and difficult." Head Zhao, without blinking, looked straight ahead.He felt that the brigadier's last words were a bit reproachful to him. Brigadier Chen and the cadres went to another hill.He studied the regiment's mortar positions and heavy machine gun bunkers, and stood in the heavy machine gun bunkers to try to aim.he asks: "Zhao Jin, it seems that you haven't checked here yet?" "yes." Brigadier Chen turned around and asked the cadres standing beside him: "What is the mission of your firearms?" A cadre replied: "Report! Our task is to block the entrance of the enemy." Brigadier Chen said: "But standing in this machine gun bunker, you can't see Mizoguchi at all! How many heavy machine guns are there in your regiment? How many bullets?" "There are four in the regiment; each gun has an average of three hundred and fifty rounds of ammunition." Brigadier Chen said: "Nonsense! Among the four poles, there is one that cannot be used, Maxim?" "right!" Brigadier Chen asked another heavy machine gun shooter: "Each heavy machine gun has an average of 350 rounds of ammunition. When the battle starts, you send it out in a few clicks. What do you do when you run out of bullets?" The soldier stood at attention without making a sound. Brigadier Chen said: "Chiang Kai-shek will send the bullets after the bullets are fired. Do you think so? However, if you place machine guns like you are now, Chiang Kai-shek will not send you bullets. "He looked at the cadres, everyone was very embarrassed. He pointed to the machine gun and said: "This is not here to fight, this is here to join in the fun.Bullets are always faster than a person's legs. If you don't use firepower to cut off the enemy's retreat first, then you won't be able to tie the pocket.Some of our comrades like to say: when the three shells fall, the machine gun fires, the soldiers rush up and a row of grenades solves the problem.Try it, if you stay at this level, you will be smashed.War, war is not your kind, comrade! After a pause, he stared at Zhao Jin again, and said: "I think it's so simple that it will kill people!"You should too. "After that, he walked forward without waiting for Zhao Jin to answer. Wei Yi personally led the soldiers to correct the heavy machine gun bunker. Brigadier Chen was walking on the ground.He greeted the soldiers as he walked and shook hands with those who approached him.He shouted: "Comrades, the first shot is about to be fired!" His loud, cheery voice rang through the trenches. The soldiers shouted one after another: "701, the first shot is safe!" He inspected the fortifications; he asked the soldiers about various conditions in the company: the preparations for battle, the mood of the people, whether it was cold at night, whether the food was good or bad, whether there was tobacco. Brigadier Chen walked to a bunker and saw Zhou Dayong and Li Jiangguo studying something.He said, "Li Jiangguo, how are the soldiers feeling?" Li Jiangguo *#踥/oo straightened his waist, looked into the eyes of the brigade commander, and said: "All the soldiers are screaming!" Brigadier Chen laughed.He looked Li Jiangguo from head to toe and said: "You naughty guy, just light up your head and feet?" He pointed to his head and said, "You have to start the brain machine!" Then he moved his fond eyes from Li Jiangguo's face to Zhou Dayong's face , asked: "Young old revolutionary! Li Jiangguo is a mighty and smart fighter, isn't he?" Zhou Dayong looked at the brigade commander's face and said, "Yes." Li Jiangguo held his stomach full of joy and looked very solemn. Brigadier Chen's face suddenly became severe, and he said: "Comrade Zhou Dayong! Tell every cadre in your company that this battle can only be fought well, not badly!" After Brigadier Chen left, Li Jiangguo jumped out of the bunker and said, "Company Commander, our brigade commander always calls you a young old revolutionary. This nickname has really been used." Zhou Dayong said: "It's better for him to call a young old revolutionary. When he calls Comrade Zhou Dayong, nine out of ten times he beats me. Hey, I figured it out!" Seven The soldiers spent the whole night digging fortifications nervously on the hills around Qinghuabian, building firepower positions.Those companies that have completed the fortifications will practice on the position and correct the fortifications.At night, you can hear the sound of shovels digging, nervous footsteps, and short orders everywhere from one hill to the other.It is not allowed to speak loudly, let alone smoking; but there are always people behind the hills, unbuttoning their clothes and covering their heads, smoking quietly.Veterans have all experienced it: it is uncomfortable not to eat for a day or two, but the itchy throat is particularly difficult to not smoke. The soldiers worked on the fortifications all night, and when it was daylight, they disguised the fortifications and cannons.During the day, only a few people were left to monitor the enemy, and most of them hid behind the green mountains. At dawn the next day, the troops entered the position, and it was said that the enemy's vanguard was advancing towards the ambush site.The soldiers crawled in the fortifications, loaded the bullets, opened the safety covers of the grenades, and placed them one by one beside the fortifications.Their eyes were fixed on the mouth of the ravine without blinking.One o'clock, two o'clock,...there was no sign of the enemy in the second half of the day.Every commander's heart was on the throat, and his eyes were sore.Ah, it really matters a lot whether you can win the first battle correctly. Taking advantage of people's inattention, the sun swished down on the western mountain line like a shooting star at night. Those experienced veterans on the battlefield: Li Jiangguo, Ma Quanyou, and Ma Changsheng stamped their feet and rubbed their thighs anxiously. With a small dry tobacco pot in his mouth, Wang Huo squatted in the fortification without saying a word.It seems that he is sticky, as if the sky is falling and there is no need to worry him.He squinted his eyes and looked at the small smoke pot next to his mouth.It seems that his five-inch small smoke pot has inexplicable benefits, and he is concentrating on studying it. The soldier Ning Jinshan asked Wang Huo anxiously: "Squad leader! Tell me, this place is only a few dozen miles away from Yan'an. We have so many people lying here, and the enemy doesn't know?" Wang Huo kept his eyes on his small smoke pot, He said slowly: "Hmph, what are you busy with? You can't eat enough food in a hurry. You have to understand: our ears are sharp, and the enemy is deaf and blind." Ning Jinshan said timidly: "Squad leader! My brother has joined our People's Liberation Army for less than a month, but he is not an outsider when it comes to war..." He saw Wang Huhu steadily knocking on the small smoke pot, and he couldn't figure it out: Why did Wang Tigers and the others believed that the enemy would definitely come?According to his thinking, this battle is not allowed to be won.The Kuomintang team is also very good at fighting, but he can still step on the blade with his eyes wide open?Besides, the Kuomintang troops are commanded by Americans with ideas, and they bring a lot of American cannons, which is much more powerful!Ning Jinshan looked up at the enemy's reconnaissance plane in the sky. Not only was he not interested in this battle, but he also wondered what he would do well if he kept up with the People's Liberation Army. For some unknown reason, Ma Quanyou suddenly became angry.He stared into Hu Biaobiao's eyes, and the inch-long scar on his left cheek turned red, and shouted: "What are you talking about? I'll pull out your tongue!" Ning Jinshan saw Ma Quan's eyes hanging from the corners of his eyes, and thought that Ma Quan was angry at him.His heart was like fifteen buckets fetching water, going up and down. Suddenly, a soldier next to Ma Quanyou said angrily: "What's the matter, you take your kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs! Okay, I'll see you at the branch meeting." Ning Jinshan knew that Ma Quan was arguing with the soldier and had nothing to do with him. He breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was ironed. By this time, the sun was about to set.The red clouds dye the rolling hills red.Thousands of crows fly across the sky.The soldiers murmured that crows are the worst thing in the world! The enemy who came to take the bait is still without a trace! At four o'clock in the night of the third day, the troops climbed up the mountain of Qinghuabian again.On the hillside, the teams all the way from the left to the right cut in and out, except for the footsteps of the soldiers and the sound of bayonets hitting grenades, everything was quiet. The troops entered the position at half past four.After Zhao Jin contacted the brigade command post on the phone, he sat in a small dirt hole and smoked. The chief of staff of the regiment, Wei Yi, walked over along Long Kan.He was always in high spirits, as if he had inexhaustible energy and inexhaustible energy.He stooped into the shelter of the regimental command post, knelt on the ground, and immediately called the battalions to check their readiness for battle.He put down the headset and said, "Commander, Director Yang said he has gone to the First Battalion." After that, he called a staff officer and the phone platoon leader, gave some orders, and said to Zhao Jin, "Commander, I'll check it out at the ammunition depot and be back in ten minutes." Zhao Jin didn't say anything, and thought: let him go, a person like Wei Yi won't let himself have a minute to spare.Zhao Jin walked out of the shelter and walked north along the ridge.Some soldiers were digging air-raid shelters, some used branches to camouflage fortifications, some talked in low voices, and some snored against the back of the ridge.Suddenly, Zhao Jin saw a flashlight flashing in the distance, and he cursed: "Isn't this intentional to send news to the enemy? Unlucky guy!" He walked towards the shining place. The soldiers squatted in the wet fortifications, lying down from midnight to dawn, and from dawn to the sun. "Today, it's all about today!" The soldiers all thought so worriedly.There was a look of anxiety on their sleep-deprived faces.Some of the commanders stared at the tree shadow for a long time, but the tree image did not move at all; some stared at the watch on the wrist, and the hour and minute hands seemed to fall asleep.Time, amidst people's infinite anxiety, seems to not move at all. "Dada, dada...Boom! Boom!" Suddenly, Qinghuabian led to the Mizoguchi of Yan'an Dongchuan, and there were gunshots and grenade explosions.The soldiers all raised their heads, stretched their ears, and opened the sweat pores all over their bodies.Everyone looked at each other in surprise, and no one said a word; but everyone was guessing in their hearts: Oops!Probably the enemy fought with our scouts, and probably the enemy discovered our ambush troops.Hey, the enemy is at the mouth of Qinghua Biangou, victory seems very close; but, victory seems to be thousands of miles away! The sun rose a pole high above the eastern mountain line.In the Dachuan Road to the east of Yan'an, there was no trace of people.The wind does not blow the trees and does not shake, and the air between the sky and the earth seems to be condensed and will never flow.In the distant sky, there are a few enemy planes circling vaguely, probably for reconnaissance. In Dongchuan, Yan'an, there is a small village not far from the mouth of Biannangou in Qinghua.All the villagers in the village ran away. At this time, an old man named Li Zhende came out of the small ditch, carrying a dry tobacco pot like a short stick in his hand, and walked towards the village.He was a tall, broad-shouldered man in his sixties, with a square face with high cheekbones and long eyebrows that almost covered the deep eye sockets.His gray beard fluttered in the wind. For the first four or five days, people in the village went up to the mountains to hide from the enemy, and came back only when the lights were on.Li Zhende did not believe that the enemy could occupy Yan'an.During the day, the family went to the mountains to hide, but he never went.He reversed his past experience and thought about it many times: How many times has the enemy attacked the border area, and which one did he attack?On March 19th, rumors spread: the enemy really occupied Yan'an.He said: "Yan'an is a good place to occupy? That's where our Chairman Mao lived for many years!" The village chief told him about the situation when our army withdrew from Yan'an, and he also said: "During the land revolution, you still had to eat You don’t know how hungry or full you are! Young people, you haven’t gone through battles. You, you just listen to the nonsense of those who are fleeing!” That’s what it says, but what is it?Since Li Zhende heard the news that the enemy had occupied Yan'an, he had been sitting on the edge of the village cliff all day long, looking at the road in Dachuan.In the past, cars and horses would come and go on that road, and pedestrians would come and go. Until the middle of the night, the bells of camels carrying charcoal could still be heard.Now, the smoky dust raised by those fleeing refugees with their feet* has covered all the prosperity brought by the people's regime.All night, he pondered back and forth, unable to close his eyes.In just one pot of smoke, he asked ten times: "How many rotten guns did we have during the Agrarian Revolution! How powerful are we now! How dare the White Army come? Can it withstand it? "He looked at the pots, pans, pots, stoves, and agricultural tools he had bought with blood and sweat over the years, so that he could look and think about the current situation from a positive perspective. Last night, his eldest son Li Yushan asked someone to send a message, asking him to go up the mountain with his family to hide from the enemy.Li Zhende was moved: "Yushan said he wanted to hide, but he did. He is very shrewd, and he is always right in planning things. "He has a special trust in his eldest son. Li Yushan was the head of the district in Shangchuan, and he won an award for his hard work last winter. At that time, Li Zhende stroked his beard and boasted to others: "In my family, only Yushan has promising.Counting from me up to three generations, they are all black-bellied, and I can't recognize Li at any rate.Well, Yushan can still carry a bamboo pole and write a letter.During the Agrarian Revolution, Yushan followed our Red Guards to pick up bullet casings.Now, this young man has become a model district mayor! " Today in Linming, Li Zhende planned to follow his family up the mountain to hide from the enemy.He was about to get up when a scout from his own unit ran up and asked him to be his guide.He also said that there is something urgent, please ask the old man to work hard, don't refuse.When Li Zhende heard this, he became irritable: "Let me lead the way? The revolution seems to be a crime for others! Listen, my old man always puts public affairs before private affairs!" The scout smiled and said, "Yes, yes! You, the old man, know something about revolution. Let's go!" When Li Zhende was about to go out, his wife said that his family members went to Beishan to hide from the enemy.But when he turned around, he couldn't find anyone in Beishan.Presumably the enemy didn't come, and the family members didn't come out either.There was no reason for him to speculate like this.But his hot kiln and heated kang absorbed his thoughts, and his legs moved towards the house involuntarily. He walked three or four miles away from Yaodianzi Village, Dongchuan, Yan'an, and his hair stood up one by one.Our army has withdrawn, but the enemy has not yet arrived, just like the common vacuum in war: it is empty here, there is no smoke from the chimney, no sound of chickens barking and dogs biting, and there is no vitality!He walked in this area with trepidation in his heart, as if something catastrophic could happen here every second.He was angry at his timidity: "The sun and the moon in Taiping have spoiled people!" He walked two or three miles and entered his own village.On the cliffs in the village, there are newly written big characters: "Long live the Communist Party!" "Don't be a subjugated slave, don't be a slave to Chiang Kai-shek! All men, women and children in the border area, arm up and destroy the enemy!" "Strengthen the walls and clear the fields, starve the enemy , Trapping the enemy to death!" The village was cleaned very cleanly, and there was not even a single firewood stick left.He thought, let the thieves who were hacked into pieces carry the cave away!He was walking towards his own house when he heard a plane whizzing past his scalp, followed by a booming explosion.Yaodianzi Village is on fire, and black smoke is rising!Fifty miles west of Yaodianzi Village is Yan'an City.He looked at the sky above Yan'an, where it was gray.However, he felt that Yan'an was also on fire for a while.He said to himself: "What kind of sun and moon is this... Alas... Chairman Mao... Chairman Mao, you should not encounter any danger!" Tears flowed from his dim old eyes. Now, decades of life flashed through his mind: long-term labor in the old society... In eleven years, he only ate two catties of white flour... And that ragged cotton jacket that he wore for twenty-one years... At that time, he often said to his wife: "Oh! We are two poor men with our mouths raised on our shoulders. After a while, we will have a piece of land, so we won't be able to bury them in the river beach if we die!" Later, northern Shaanxi became "red", and his family divided the land, cattle, and sheep.He worked hard from morning to night and endured hardships, and slowly his days began to take shape.In my own district, every year is getting stronger... There are no hungry beggars, and things are thrown on the road and no one picks them up... He thinks in his heart: "Now, alas! Is this good day and the moon coming to an end? The old society is coming again Tossing people? The world will turn upside down again? Can the river flow upside down?" He was thinking about the past and the present in a panic, looking at the empty, desolate and unsafe homeland, when suddenly, his little grandson ran back with a tied cow.Little Shuan Niu ran too fast and was out of breath, his chubby little face was flushed red.He said: "Grandpa! You taught me how to find it! Come on, hurry up to the back mountain. How dare you squat in the village for a while!" Old man Li shook his head.He felt dazzled, his legs were weak, and he was very tired. Shuan Niu took the old man's hand and said, "Grandpa, can't you hear? There are gunshots in the front of the river! Hurry up to the back mountain. There is our team on the back mountain." Old man Li's eyes sparkled, and he said: "+H, isn't our team heading east? Is there really our team on Beishan?" "That's right! There are so many people and horses!" Old man Li said: "Then it will be saved. Tied the cow, your mother is so stubborn! I made a vow to her and said, teach her not to send you running around. She, take my words as a deaf ear!" Old man Li said as he walked, "I'm about to die! If I die, I won't be able to die on my own kang! What kind of evil spirit is this to oppress people?" He kept looking back at his cave dwelling, looking at Above the cave dwelling is the place where corn sticks and peppercorns are hung every year.Ah, the cave has seen the sad tears of the suffering people, and heard the laughter of the peasants.Ah, the cave dwelling where our ancestors lived for generations is now so lovable, it's hard to part with! Before the old man Li and Shuan Niu left the village, they heard gunshots: "Okay--Gu-- Ba-gu-baba..." Followed by the gunshots came shouts, neighing of horses, and it was hard to tell how many people and horses there were. This dead-like villa was churning. All kinds of birds were also frightened and flew wildly in the sky. Enemy search forces entered the village. You can't run away!Old man Li took his little grandson to tie the cow, ran back to his cave, and blocked the door with stones.He tried his best not to let his eyes meet the eyes of the tied ox, why let the child see danger and disaster, life and death from his own eyes! The little Shuan Niu looked through the crack of the door, squeaked, and shouted like it was on fire: "Grandpa, it's broken! Look, the chicken he caught with the gun must be the Bai army. Grandpa, what should I do if I can't get out?" "His heart was pounding.He had never seen Bai Jun before, so he couldn't imagine what disaster these ghosts would bring!I just feel scared and wish I could hide in the mouse hole.Old man Li's eyes widened, he was very frightened.He said: "What are you looking at, nest in the corner of the stove!" "Grandpa..." Old man Li threatened the tied cow with his hands, refusing to let him speak.There was another "snap" shot outside.Shuan Niu trembled all over: "Grandpa! If you can't get out, what should you do?" "What to do, what to do, you quietly! Now that things are up to now, we're talking about pots and cans, and if you can't run, you can do as you can't run! Tether the cattle, there are our brigades on Beishan, this It won’t last long to help the ghosts. Tether the cattle and meet the white army, but you must not say that there is our team on the back mountain. Remember, tie the cattle, and you must not tell the truth to the enemy. If you tell the truth, I will dig out your eyes Come out!" Old man Li felt calm when he felt that all the inevitable disasters were on his head.He sat down on the edge of the kang solemnly, put a walking stick between his legs, propped his chin, and his beard trembled. Shuan Niu's two startled black eyes rolled around.He became more and more afraid, but he still couldn't think about those terrible things, how terrible they were. "Grandpa..." He hugged Grandpa's leg tightly.Like any child, he felt that with his parents or grandpa protecting him, something terrible would happen and he shouldn't be afraid. While the grandfather and grandson were talking, there was a click, and the door was stepped open, and six or seven enemies came in with raised eyebrows.Some of these enemies are tall, some are short, some are black and thick, and some are thin; all of them have dusty faces; they wear cotton hats that look like gourds and scoops, and they wear new yellow cloth military uniforms.Some are carrying "Chinese official" rifles, and some are carrying American submachine guns, which look fierce and horizontal. "Get out! I have something to ask! Don't go? I'm going to shoot!" The enemy cursed and roared; the butt of the gun hit the door, the bolt rattled, and the bayonet dangled under Old Man Li's eyelashes.Old man Li felt that there was darkness in front of his eyes, and the sky was dim.He stood with his hands on the wall.A few enemies rushed to the back of the kiln, the pot support was overturned, and the bottom of the broken pig food bowl was upside down.The sauerkraut urn was broken, and the water in the urn flowed out like black blood. Li Zhende clenched his teeth.He knows that these evil spirits will not spare you unless they torture you to death.But, right now, shame is more terrifying than death.He hated himself for being old and weak, if more than ten years ago, he would have defeated several enemies, at least he would have exchanged his life for another.He stared at the enemy contemptuously, as if to say: "Open your eyes, the people here, the people here have followed the Communist Party and hacked out a person from the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region with a kitchen knife." The platoon leader of the enemy's search company grabbed Old Man Li by the collar of his clothes, pushed back and forth, and shouted, "Where did the common people go?" Old man Li kept panting, shaking his head and said, "Ah... ah... did you ask the common people?... ran away!" The enemy platoon leader asked: "Damn, what kind of thief is running away?" The old man Li took a long breath and a short breath.With his dazed and cold eyes, he looked at the bandits with bundles around their waists, and said, "I don't know!" The enemy platoon leader looked around for a while, his face softened a little, and asked, "Are there any bandits around this village?" Old man Li said: "What bandits? In the past ten years in our border area, let alone bandits, you threw gold on the road, and no one picked it up!" The enemy bared his teeth and scolded: "Why are you pretending to be confused? I asked you where there is the Communist Army and the Eighth Route Army?" Old man Li put one hand behind his back and supported the wall with the other, and said, "Ah, the Eighth Route Army? Soldiers act like ghosts, we ordinary people can't tell!" Before the words were finished, a group of robbers shouted and cursed in terror, and their gun butts and fists fell on the old man's head and body. ... Lian Niu pulled Old Man Li, and cried in a hoarse voice: "Grandpa!..." Old Man Li supported the wall and wanted to get up, but his legs were so soft that he couldn't help it.He got up and fell down, dizzy, and the sky turned and the ground moved.He gritted his teeth, and stood up again, holding the child's shoulders, and said: "Tie up the cow, if you die, you have to stand up and die, tie up the cow, give me a hand...Grandpa is the man whose neck is covered with loess." It's over, the old society and the new society have passed. Tie the cattle! Grandpa has had enough!" He stood trembling.The mouth is tight, and the creases around the mouth are as tight as bowstrings; the beard is trembling.The twin lights that shot out of his deep eye sockets were fierce, sharp, and icy cold.站在他面前的几个敌人，在他的眼光威逼下，都不自觉地向后退了半步。 那个敌人排长吼叫："来！把这个老家伙捆起来！" 一霎时，李老汉被五花大绑捆起来。拴牛紧紧地抱住爷爷的腿。李老汉感觉到拴牛抱着他的腿，这感觉使他心酸！敌人搜索连连长来了。这家伙，脑袋不大，下巴挺尖；一身是黄卡叽布衣服，脚穿黄色的长筒皮靴。他把他的排长问了一下，就贼眉溜眼地把拴牛拉到一边问话。 李老汉吐着口里的血，瞪起眼，长长的眉毛和睫毛在颤动，厉声高喊："拴牛！" 一个匪徒上去打了李老汉一巴掌，说："你打什么电话！" 李老汉鼻子口里血直淌，他喘着气，抬起头，直挺挺地站着。如今，只有如今，他感觉到自己并没有衰老。 那个敌人连长，把拴牛拉到一边，假眉三道地说："我们是八路军，国军打到延安我们掉了队。八路军在哪里？你说。我给你钱。给你糖，快说！" 拴牛说："你不是八路军。八路军我常见哩，不打人，不骂人，也不捉鸡，可和气哩！" 敌人连长两手插在裤兜里，两腿叉开，把拴牛端详了一阵。又把那美国式的帽子推在脑后，点了根纸烟叼在嘴角，问： "小崽子，你认错了，我们不是八路军是什么军？" "白军！" 一个敌人问："啥子叫白军啊？" 拴牛怯生生地说："顽固军。" 那个匪军连长脸一翻，上去一脚把拴牛踢翻在地，用膝盖压住拴牛的胸膛，又打又骂。 拴牛又哭又喊："爷爷！爷爷！我……我。" 李老汉被一种强大的感情控制了，他呐喊："拴牛，你什么也不知道。他要问什么，爷爷都知道。" 几个匪徒一听，龇牙咧嘴地跑到李老汉跟前，说："贱骨头！你早说何必受这份洋罪。说吧！" 敌人解开李老汉身上的绳子。李老汉跌跌撞撞地走过去护着孩子，心一酸，泪水涌满了眼眶，他连忙把脸捂在孩子的背上，让眼泪往心里流。他思量：说什么哩？说我们的队伍就在后面山上？这千万使不得。不说吧！拴牛人小，万一说出了实话。……霎时，万千事情闪过眼前。他想起了十多年以前，自己跟上刘志丹同志闹革命，打土豪、分田地…… 他想起了这多时村里人都说的话："活是边区人，死是边区鬼！"心里又筹思："我们的队伍就在山上哩！他们不会跟你们这帮恶煞善罢甘休的！"一想到这里，他觉得心劲又大了： 说不定自己的队伍会呼呼呼地扑来，搭救他爷孙两辈人。敌人排长掏出一把票子，说："老头子，不能亏你。你说哪里有八路军，指一下就行了。" "指一下就行了？你要我把良心卖给你？畜生们，你们算找错人了！"李老汉心里盘算。 拴牛望着北面的山头，一个匪徒顺着孩子的眼光急问： "这边山上有吧？" 李老汉心里暗暗吃了一惊，但是他还是稳堰堰的，脸色凝然不动，说："老总！他们前两天是在这边山上哩，昨天夜间跳过延河到南边山上去了。只有七个人，大约是游击队，成不了啥气势！" 敌人搜索连长喊："马云山！带这个老头子到对面山上搜索。注意！根本找不到向导，不能让老头子跑掉。" 李老汉面色蜡黄，形容枯瘦，但是目光炯炯，非常庄严、自尊。他一颠一跛地走着；望那前面移来的几株枣树，枣树干枯而刚劲的枝杈，撑在天空，无畏地迎着冷风。拴牛死死地拉住李老汉的后袄襟。他眼珠子发痴，像是吓得迷糊啦！ 李老汉朝前走一步，心就抽一下，像是他一步一步走近了绝地。可是，他心里还在重复："伤天害理的畜生！你们从我口里半个字也掏不出！" 匪徒们不停地向山上打枪，战战兢兢贼头贼脑地互相丢眼色。他们觉得，这些山沟都像很大的嘴巴一样，随时都可能把他们生吞下去。一个匪军吹胡子瞪眼地吼喊："走！快走，快走！"其他匪军像助威一样，跟着乱喊、咒骂。 敌人兴师动众地押着李振德和他的孙子，从村子里走出来。这件事惊动了我军侦察员。 侦察员们蹲在青化砭沟口的山坡上监视敌人的行动，盯着川道里平展展的土地、片片的绿麦苗、闪闪发光的延河。他们跟前放个很小的电话机，埋在土里的电话线向北伸去。侦察员们浑身插上蒿草，远看起来，活像一堆堆天然生长的蒿草。小麻雀也落在那蒿草上，喳喳叫。 延安东川里，三五十个一伙的敌人搜索部队，顺着树林、河槽搜索前进。有一伙敌人，爬在延河边的一棵树下，用望远镜朝我军侦察员们蹲的山坡望了好久，还"啪"地放了一枪。子弹从侦察员们头上飞过去。 侦察排长喊："别动！敌人在冒诈哩。" 一个侦察员说："我不动。我只想用手摸摸敌人打来的子弹，试试它的体温。" "住口！"排长生气了。突然，他倒抽了一口冷气，轻声地说："看！" 侦察员们揉揉眼，盯住敌人押着的老乡跟小孩。 "怪呀！敌人怎么能捉住那老乡呢？啊，兴许，那老乡就是今天拂晓给我们带路的那位老汉。"这侦察员用手敲着自己的脑壳，说："他姓什么来？哦，对，对。他姓李。" "去你的吧！那姓李的老大伯能落到敌人手里？他是个老革命，作战经验比我们也不少。" "注意！" "注意！" 侦察员们紧张地转述排长的命令。因为敌人押着老乡和小孩，向侦察员们蹲的这座山根下走来。侦察员们浑身紧缩着，仿佛他们想钻地入土。 "我真想开枪！" "排长！糟啦！转移吧！" "不准说话！注意保险机，不要走了火！"排长圆瞪着眼，紧咬嘴唇，盯着老乡和敌人。他的脸通红，额头上的汗珠泼拉拉的滴在地上。他跟战士们撤退是很容易的，可是身后不远的地方，就是自己的伏击部队呀。他想："不要紧，敌人押着的那个老乡，像这里一百五十万老乡一样：不会出卖胜利，而会至死不屈。" 可是，敌人押着的老乡跟小孩，还是一直向侦察员们蹲的这座山根下走着。侦察排长把帽子向脑后一推，头上直冒热气。他声音急迫地命令： "从左至右，一个随一个转移！" 左边第一个战士，倒退在一个垅坎下，接着第二个战士往后退。 ... "停止！"排长的音调，因为高兴而有点颤抖。 原来，那位老汉和小孩领着那帮敌人，走在侦察员们蹲的这座山下时，突然向南一拐，涉过延河朝南山坡爬去了。蹲在北山坡的我军侦察员们，用望远镜观看。老乡和敌人的身影一会让山头遮了，一会又出现在更高的山头上。猛乍，那位老乡站定了，用胳膊护着孩子，回头看敌人。那帮敌人向后一退，又向前逼进几步。那老乡手抡了一下，弯下腰抱定孩子，向前纵了几步，跳下了绝崖深沟！ ... 几十个匪徒像是猛地发愣了。直到他们醒悟过来的时候，才乱打了一阵枪，朝崖下扔了几颗手榴弹，灰溜溜地返回来，下了山。 我军侦察员们紧握着枪，眼睛一眨也不眨地盯住远方的山头。侦察排长原是坐在地上观察的。突然，他手里的镜子掉了。他胸脯一挺跪了起来，紧紧地抓住一个侦察员的胳膊，低声重复："老乡……老乡……"就在这天吃早饭的时光，敌人三十一旅得到他们搜索部队的报告："前边无敌踪"。这样，他们便大摇大摆地顺公路向青化砭大沟中推进。Eight 第一连在最前面的山堡上。营长刘元兴不停地从营指挥所打来电话，要第一连注意观察。 指导员王成德给爬在山梁背后的战士们叮咛：要把鞋子绑紧。连长周大勇把驳壳枪插在腰里的皮带上。他弯下腰，顺垅坎来回跑，告诉战士们："手榴弹准备好！注意，不要把枪口堵上土；要沉住气，没有命令不准打枪！" 严肃紧张的空气，在阵地上流动。阵地上静得像几百年没人去过的古庙一样。 战士们有的贴住耳朵谈什么；有的蹲在垅坎下，轮流抽那最宝贵的烟头；有的紧缩着身子，抱着枪，轻轻地呼吸着。 "赶快敲打起来吧！我心里实在痒痒的不行。" "这阵我心里七上八下的不安生，只有稀里哗啦地干起来，我这心跳劲才能收煞！" "听，听！手榴弹铮铮响，它要发表意见啦！" 突然有三架战斗机划过天空。敌人的飞机在青化砭地区绕了几个圈子，顺着山沟俯冲下来，扫射了一阵，向远方飞去。 战士们都眼睛一眨也不眨地盯着敌人的飞机，一直到看不见。 "注意，敌人！"这命令声很低，可是有的人听到了，有的人感觉到了。战士们因为太兴奋、紧张，心冲到喉咙门快要蹦出口。天气挺冷，可是大伙头上直冒汗。 最前面负责观察的少数战士们格外着急、兴奋，全身火辣辣的。Look!上午十点钟的时光，一片黄煞煞的敌人从南朝北涌进了沟：前面是尖兵，后边是大队人马，顺公路大摇大摆地推进。山炮、迫击炮、重机枪，都在牲口上驮着。当官的骑在马上，一摇一晃地舞动马鞭子，好安逸呀，简直像游山玩水哩！骑在马上的军官，有的还往两边山上瞭望，贼头贼脑的；有的双手撑在腰里，像思谋什么；有的腰干挺得笔直，望着前方，看起来蛮威武。一溜一行的士兵，背着笨重的行囊，扛着步枪、躬起腰低垂着头走，像是累得慌。有的士兵把步枪当扁担，挑着行李。有的士兵扛着轻机枪，连枪衣也没脱。有一个士兵，枪梢一晃把当官的马惊了。那当官的调转马头，用鞭子朝那当兵的头上猛抽。 ... 周大勇带着几个战士，在山沿上一个隐蔽的地方观察。他那钢板似的胸脯贴在掩体的胸墙上，用两个铁一样的拳头支住下巴，紧盯着沟里的敌人。这就是胡宗南匪徒！就是这一伙土匪占领了我们党中央和毛主靠住的延安！周大勇牙咬得吱吱响，脸色通红，鼻孔扇动，眉头拧成一条绳。 敌人残暴可恨，敌人安然自在的样子更可恨！ "用刺刀挑，才解恨！"马全有的声音。 "用手榴弹，把这狗操的捣成肉饼！"马长胜答话了。 "糟糕！"李江国沉不住气了。 "留神！"王老虎命令。 宁金山怯生生的声音有点发抖："班……班长……"周大勇猛地缩下身子，说："不准吱声！" 原来敌人派出的侧翼搜索部队，顺着两翼的山头搜索着前进。有百十来个敌人端着冲锋枪，向"英雄部"阵地上走来了。敌人边走边射击，还叽哩哇啦地叫喊："出来！出来！不要装蒜，我们知道你们人不多。" 周大勇看得分明：有些战士沉不住气，就要开枪。但是，在这节骨眼上，只要有人打一枪，敌人的乌龟头往回一缩，日夜期待的胜利就忽地飞去了，一切心血都白费了！可憎的敌人还是向战士们接近。 ... 王老虎看起来满不在意。他低下头绑鞋带子，那双手呀，可紧张地打颤。 马全有急得直流汗，他一边绑鞋带一边低声提议："连长，敲打起来吧！" 周大勇猛摆手，低声喊："胡说。彭总有命令：前面部队打响，我们才能打。我们是堵屁股的呀！" 马长胜不停地咽唾沫。他说："连长，不打枪，上去用刺刀解决他。" 周大勇很凶地瞪了他一眼，说："你不打枪敌人打嘛，一打枪就把锅砸咯！" 李江国两手在大腿上搓着，好像浑身起了风湿疙瘩，痒得撑不定："祖宗呀！活受洋罪，心要炸了！活受洋罪，心要炸了！" 王老虎不眨眼地盯着敌人，说："沉住气！" 一秒钟啊顶一年！ 周大勇使劲地抓住自己胸前衣服，脸红彤彤的，黄豆大的汗珠顺脸泼拉拉地淌下来。 How to do it?敌人搜索部队离我们部队伪装的重机枪阵地，只有三百公尺……二百五十公尺……战场上所有的人都闭住气，盯着这一股敌人！这当儿，真希望像战士们摆龙门阵时说的一样，能够有什么"罩眼法"遮住敌人的眼睛。但是，不管你怎么样想，敌人还是向前走。再过半分钟不开枪就不行了。 ……猛然，敌人这股侧翼搜索部队，进到离重机枪阵地一百八十公尺的地方，乱打了一阵枪，又折转向我伏击部队右前方走去，而且敌人跳过一个山头，顺山梁直向北走去了。战士们都长出了一口气，阵地上有轻轻的笑声。但是因为人们太惊奇、太高兴，心跳得更凶了。这时候，只有这时候，战士们才觉着脊背上的汗水，湿透了棉衣。 战士们高兴得你挤我，我戳你，多乐和多熨贴啊！暖融融的阳光，照着神秘的战场和愉快的脸膛，照着粗壮而严肃的大炮和精干而调皮的机关枪。 王老虎那稍长的脸，因为兴奋，涨得通红。他提议："我说，--嘿，我的棉衣像冰凌一样贴在身上！……我说，给这些敌人记一功。" 李江国说："你们说国民党腐败不好，我看，也还不能完全那么说！" 马全有忽地转过身子问："你放这一炮什么意思？" 李江国说："这还用问？你看，那一群家伙，不是马马虎虎地帮助了中国革命？这不是国民党腐败的功劳吗？" 一阵不出声的笑。 王老虎擦着头上的汗，拉长声调说："照我看，杜鲁门把他的全部家当拿出来，也把蒋介石打扮不成人样子！" 马长胜一动也不动地望着自己的胸脯，说："癞狗扶不上墙搝！" 接着，战士们就争论，有没有"运气"这玩艺。有的战士说有，并举出他在战争中遇到的"怪事"，证明他的看法。 可是大多数战士说，相信"运气"，就是"迷信脑瓜"。猛的，连长周大勇低声喊："同志们，注意！" 战士们一个个都伸长脖子瞪起眼看，敌人差不多全部进到大沟里了。他们凝神屏气，好像盯着一个转眼就要剧烈爆炸的什么东西。阵地上罩着让人呼吸困难的闷气。这种闷气掩盖着焦灼、渴望、紧张！ 大约，又过了十来分钟，前边一二十里的地方机枪"哒哒哒"响了。 随着这枪声，憋在人心里的那股气，一下子给爆发了；那看来寂静和空虚的阵地，也一下子给翻腾了：青化砭上空，枪榴弹爆炸了，冒起一团团的黑烟。枪声、炮声一齐吼叫起来。 我军各种火力，压在敌人头上。敌人混乱了。 青化砭的川道里，烟雾腾腾。 ... "冲呀！" "同志们！冲呀！" 战士们像猛然暴涨的山洪一样，向山沟中冲下来了。 青化砭左右山头上的冲锋号，激昂地吹起来。一个小司号员站在一个最高的山顶上，扬起头鼓起全身气力吹号，那号上的红绸子还随风飘动。 赵劲他们团的任务是堵住敌人的屁股，所以战士们直向敌人进来的沟口飞跑，不管三七二十一，前面就是胜利，是沟也跳，是崖也跳。 跑得最快，伸得最突出的是第一连。连长周大勇率领两个排跑在队伍的最前边。指导员王成德率领一个排在连长右侧奋勇前进。这时王指导员身边有人高喊："堵住敌人屁股就是胜利！"战士们回头一看，原来是团参谋长卫毅。他满脸淌汗，在指挥第一连右翼的一支部队。第一连左翼，营长刘元兴率领本营二、三连在飞跑。他只穿一件衬衫，两只袖子揎到肘子以上。边跑边凶狠狠地咒骂什么。 土坡上，尘土漫天。枪声炮声喊声像狂风在吼，摇得山脉直晃荡。 赵劲在一块高地上指挥着团的火力。连发的机关枪，像长剑一样斩断敌人的退路。各种炮弹，不是丢在敌群中，倒是丢在敌人刚才进来的山口上；炮弹爆炸以后掀起的尘土烟雾，像一座山一样，堵住了敌人的退路。那座山一样的尘土烟雾，不断地增长着，一直伸到挨住了天，嘿呀，鸟儿也飞不过去。 看起来这山沟不宽，可是去斩断敌人退路的战士们一口气跑到指定地点，就是七八里路。 青化砭上下二十多里的川道里，拥满了敌人。敌人像潮水一样，哗地涌流到东边山根下，碰到迎头爆发的火力，哗地流到西山根下，又是披头盖脑浇下来的手榴弹。敌人在沟里就是这样涌来流去。炮弹在敌群中爆炸，受惊的骡马，踏看人腾空而起。 ……有些敌人军官摇着指挥旗，冒着我军炮火在奔跑指挥。有的敌人趴在河槽里顽强地射击着，有的敌人恶凶凶地挺起刺刀，迎击我军的战士。 ... 战场上，是一片"缴枪不杀"的喊声，是刺刀枪托的猛烈格斗声。 这时，团长赵劲带一个营，配合兄弟部队从山上扑下来，冲入敌群了。他们，步步遇到敌人的抵抗；有些地方，敌人一个班被打得剩下一个人，但是那一个人还在拼死抵抗，仿佛不到万不得已决不放下武器。 赵劲率领战士们顺沟向北攻，看见兄弟部队捉住了一个军官。这个军官就是敌人三十一旅旅长。敌人少将旅长两手垂下，木头人似地站在公路上。他，脸抽动流冷汗，干瞪眼，瞎咕哝："就这样完了？就这样完了？……"看样子，他像是很不服气，也像是不相信他目前的处境。过了一阵，他咚地往地下一蹲，双手抱住头，气愤若狂地嘟囔："想不到，太快！想不到，太快！连展开兵力的时间都没有。就全军……就全军……想不到！万万想不到……"沟渠、河槽、山岔里，有些零散的敌人，还在拼命抵抗。 枪声稀稀拉拉；手榴弹轰隆隆，东一下西一下地爆炸。天空敌人的飞机绕来绕去，不投弹，也不扫射。因为它闹不清青化砭发生了什么事情。 赵劲让战士们把他们捉到的三百多个俘虏集合起来。俘虏们，有的丢了帽子，有的丢了鞋，有的棉衣被酸枣刺挂得稀烂。那些混在俘虏群里的敌人军官，有的疯狂地撕扯自己的头发，用那充血的眼睛瞧着我军战士；有的把帽子压在眼眉上，偷偷丢掉他身上耶些可以表明他军官身份的东西。 我军战士们有的拼命地把子弹带往身上背；有的拣起敌人崭新的美国造冲锋枪，怪稀罕地说："伙计！你从美国到这里也挺辛苦，跟我去为人
