Chapter 184: Those Years in the Great Northern Wilderness (2)

Yun Tinglan made a big promise, "Instructor, we should take a long-term view. When the rice planting is successful, it will also be the achievement of our entire Sharp Knife Battalion, don't you think?"

Come on, can I expect you to mess around with something that our ancestors failed to accomplish in thousands of years?

Zhang Zhigang had no hope at all.

When he was halfway there, he suddenly realized that something was not right. Raising seedlings was not a matter of one or two days. It was obvious that the couple had planned this a long time ago.

Suddenly, I remembered the greenhouse they built. Everyone used to say that they were being too picky. They went to so much trouble just to eat fresh vegetables!

It seems to be in the process of seedling cultivation now.

So it seems that they didn't do this on a whim.

In the battalion office, Geng Bao looked at the spring planting summary table and advised Zhang Zhigang: "It doesn't matter if there are a few acres of land. Besides, rice can grow here, but the harvest will be lower. It's better than leaving it empty."

The couple who grew the rice seeds provided themself, why are you making such a fuss about it?

Zhang Zhigang sighed. What else could he do? He had called the division headquarters several times, but the seed problem had not been solved. But the farming season could not be missed. He was not happy to let the fields that everyone had worked so hard to cultivate go to waste.

Just leave it at that.

"Boom!" Thunder and lightning roared, and angry clouds rolled!

The heavy rain was beating against the windows. Several branches of the persimmon tree in the yard were broken by the strong wind and heavy rain, and the flowers were scattered all over the ground.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Zheng, the land of the first and second companies is flooded. Should we go and help?"

"Boom!" There was another burst of lightning and thunder in the sky.

As soon as the door was opened, the wind blew in with heavy rain. Song Jinhan put on his raincoat while giving orders, "Gather all the people in the third company immediately."

Yun Tinglan also quickly put on her raincoat. When they arrived, they saw only a vast ocean, and rows of crops were all flooded.

Geng Bao and Zhang Zhigang were leading people from the first and second companies to drain water from the fields. Everyone picked up their shovels and were ready to join the team.

Song Jinhan shouted, "Come back!"

Everyone was puzzled by Song Jinhan's obstruction and said, "Deputy Battalion Commander Zheng, let's help them. There is so much food."

"That's right, Deputy Battalion Commander Zheng, we are all brothers in the same battalion, we can't just stand by and watch someone die."

The heavy rain blurred Song Jinhan's face. No one could see his expression clearly. They only heard him say loudly: "The rain is too heavy, and their ditches are too shallow. The water can't be drained out at all."

If the rain stops, it can still be of some use. Now...

It's all in vain. There's no hope for those crops.

"Even if it doesn't work, we can still do our best."

"Yes, do your best. Comrades, follow me."

"Stop!" Song Jinhan frowned. He didn't like this kind of person who acted on impulse. What a reckless man!

Yun Tinglan held his hand and said, "Comrades, we understand your feelings, and we should help each other! But we must proceed from the facts. At present, the heavy rain shows no sign of stopping."

"We only have these 500 mu of crops left in our Sharp Knife Battalion. If even these crops go wrong, can we live up to the trust of the Party and the people?"

"Think about it calmly. Even if you go over there now, will it be of any use? It will not help! Our priority now is to focus on protecting the remaining crops."

"Listen to my orders, go to the fields immediately and make sure the ditches are clear. Those that need to be cleared are cleared, and those that need to be dug are dug." Song Jinhan glanced at everyone, "Anyone who dares to drag their feet and reduce grain production will be criticized throughout the battalion."

It can be seen that everyone still has opinions, but Song Jinhan doesn't want to waste any more words. The heavy rain is still going to continue, so he helped Yun Tinglan put on her raincoat and took the lead to go to the fields.

Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to follow.

"Has God gone crazy? It has been raining for three days straight."

"Yes, it never ends."

"Okay, what's the use of complaining? Let's get to work. What Deputy Battalion Commander Zheng said is right. Instead of wasting time over there, we might as well take care of the crops of our third company. Otherwise..." Just wait for the whole division to be embarrassed.

"We should listen to the deputy battalion commander. The people from the first and second companies did not come as required, which is why they were flooded. The deputy battalion commander is also an old man from Northeast China. He said that the rain will continue for a few more days, and it will definitely continue."

Yun Tinglan also received accurate information from Lingxi, "Heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, strong winds, and severe convective weather will probably last for five to seven days."

Historically, this heavy rain did last for seven days.

Zhu Xueer spat out the rainwater in her mouth and shouted to Geng Bao, "Captain, it's useless. The water can't be drained out."

There are still four days left of this heavy rain. It’s totally useless. Just give up.

In her previous life, she had a fever and had been lying in a horse rack. She only knew that it was raining heavily and the crops were flooded, and Geng Bao was criticized. But in this life, the canal was clearly repaired, so why was it still flooded?

Where is Zheng Sheng?

She took two steps at a time and rushed to catch Geng Bao, "Where is the third company? How is the third company?"

Geng Bao wiped the rain off his face and said with difficulty: "Xiao Wenshu came back and said that the third company is fine."

At this time, Zhang Zhigang also came over panting, "Leopard, it's useless! The water can't be drained out! The drainage ditch is too shallow, it's all flooded, it's completely useless!"

I regret it!

The spearhead battalion headquarters.

"Review in front of the whole battalion? Leopard, don't be impulsive!" Zhang Zhigang hurriedly stopped him. Suddenly he frowned, "Did Zheng Sheng say something?"

"No! But you might as well scold me, so that I can feel better. The reason why the grain was flooded this time is ultimately because of us. We don't believe in science and act recklessly. If it weren't for the harvest of the 500 acres of land owned by Deputy Battalion Commander Zheng, our Sharp Knife Battalion would have been wiped out!"

The teacher was right to scold them. They were too arrogant and did not know how to respect talents. Therefore, they must review themselves in public so that everyone can learn from it!

Zhang Zhigang couldn't bear to lose face, so he advised earnestly: "You can review, but there's no need to do it in public, right? Our leadership team can review themselves internally and promise not to make the same mistake again."

"That won't do. Such a serious mistake must be reviewed in public!" Looking at the commendation on the table, Geng Bao's voice slowed down a few degrees and smiled, "Look, this is the commendation from the division headquarters. Cold-region rice is a major breakthrough. Our Sharp Knife Battalion pioneered it! The yield per mu is 500 kilograms. It's a great event!"

"This is a happy event, and I am happy too, but there is no need to review it in public. This will only boost Zheng Sheng's prestige. How will we brothers carry out our work in the future? Who will have the final say in the future of the Sharp Knife Battalion?"

"Zheng Sheng!" Geng Bao made the decision without hesitation, "From now on, he will be our teacher, and the whole battalion must follow his scientific teachings! Tell me, how big a mistake did we make this time, and how much loss did we cause!

The division headquarters should replace me as the battalion commander and let Zheng Sheng take over the position temporarily, which is also right..."

Before Geng Bao could finish, Zhang Zhigang's eyes turned red with anxiety, "Why? What kind of background does Zheng Sheng have? No, I want to call the division headquarters!"

"Put it down!" Geng Bao held the phone. "Listen to me. Zheng Sheng refused. He said he didn't have the energy to manage the Sharp Blade Battalion, so I am still the battalion commander. However, the division commander said that we must fully cooperate with him in the research of cold-region rice in the future, and strive to double the yield of autumn harvest next year."

Zhang Zhigang's mouth twitched. More than a thousand pounds? I dare to think about it!
