Bright Sword: I am the old squad leader of the Northwest Shanxi Iron Triangle

"Brothers, we have survived the most difficult days." Ling Yunzhi opened the kettle, "Mix the wine and chili water in the kettle and let everyone drink a few sips."

Li Yunlong and his team distributed the more than ten pounds of dried chili peppers they brought to everyone, with each person getting half a pound of dried chili peppers.

Everyone stuffed the dried chilies into their mouths and chewed them in big mouthfuls.

Their mouths were numbed by the spiciness and their lips were red and swollen.

"Those who can ski will slide down, and those who can't ski will roll down." Ling Yunzhi found a flat mountain road.

He tied two wooden boards to his feet, and everyone realized that Ling Yunzhi brought too many things.

Ling Yunzhi leaped forward and quickly slid down the mountain.

Along the way, Ling Yunzhi was like a dragon emerging from a cave, flying up and down on the snow with a dashing and heroic figure.

Everyone was stunned.

“This method is good, it’s not hard to go down the mountain.

It will probably take an hour or two to slide down the mountain." Li Yunlong took the lead and jumped, with nothing on his feet except a 50-centimeter-long wooden board.

With a thud, Li Yunlong fell directly on the snow.

The huge inertia caused Li Yunlong to roll down the mountain.

Everyone followed suit. Except for Ling Yunzhi, no one knew how to ski, but they rolled down the mountain much faster.

Two hours later, everyone crawled down the mountain.

After everyone gathered together again, Ling Yunzhi shouted, "Everyone, listen quickly and report your numbers."

1、2、3、4、5、6、7、8……的声音，快速响起。

This time, they brought more than 360 people out of the snow-capped mountains.

A burst of gunfire was heard not far away.

"Who has a battle map?"

"Old squad leader, I have a combat map on me." Ding Wei quickly ran over and took out a so-called combat map.

This so-called battle map was drawn with a pencil on a piece of straw paper.

Ling Yunzhi looked at the sun in the sky. It was June now and most of the sunlight was blocked by Jiajin Mountain.

For an ace special forces soldier, determining direction is not a problem at all.

30 miles ahead is Songpan County, and further ahead is the infamous Songpan Grassland.

Compared to the snow-capped mountains, the grassland is even more terrifying.

More than 2000 Red Army soldiers died in the snow-capped mountains.

However, more than 20,000 people were swallowed up by the Songpan grassland.

The Songpan grassland in the distance is endless, with black mud everywhere.

From afar, the Songpan grassland was covered with fog.

That's not just fog, it's poison gas.

The Songpan grassland is full of swamps full of rotting leaves and decaying animal carcasses, which have piled up together over the years and emit large amounts of toxic gases.

Ling Yunzhi took the telescope and looked into the distance again.

In the distance, the green grass and black mud on the meadow mixed together, looking like a vast ocean.

We have to find a way to cross the endless swamp ahead.

"Old squad leader, look ahead, there is a white dog flag." Kong Jie said, pointing in the direction of Songpan County.

“That’s the Central Army.”

"The sound of gunfire just now should be the exchange of fire between the Central Army and our soldiers." Ling Yunzhi frowned.

Most of the more than 300 people he brought with him were in weak health.

Many people still have high fever.

It is absolutely impossible to expect these 300-odd people to fight against the Central Army.

The Central Army’s weapons and equipment are much more advanced than those of the Sichuan Army.

Ling Yunzhi knew that this Central Army unit belonged to Hu Zongnan's First Division.

"Comrades, if we want to pass through the Songpan grassland smoothly, we must get supplies from Songpan County."

"Everyone, take off your white clothes. Pick some strong men to put them on."

After hearing Ling Yunzhi's order, everyone took action quickly.

Before climbing the snow mountain, everyone put on more than a dozen military uniforms of the white dogs from Chen Baoguo's regiment.

Soon, more than 200 sets of military uniforms were taken off.

"Those who are strong and capable of fighting should wear the white-fruit military uniforms, and the others should wear the clothes of the Red Army soldiers. You are the soldiers captured by us." Ling Yunzhi made deployments quickly.

After everyone had finished eating and had a brief rest, they headed towards Songpan County in a mighty procession.

Ling Yunzhi walked in the front with 50 soldiers wearing white trousers and uniforms.

Following closely behind were the Red Army soldiers.

At the back were still soldiers wearing white trousers and military uniforms.

Two hours later, everyone arrived near Songpan County.

The closer they got to Songpan County, the angrier the crowd became.

The trees on both sides of the road were hung with the heads of Red Army soldiers.

Whether it is the central army or the local armed forces, they treat our soldiers cruelly.

Whether they were dead soldiers or captured soldiers, they were brutally beheaded and hung on trees.

The bodies of the soldiers were carried on sharpened branches.

Many people's eyes were blazing with fire after seeing this. Li Yunlong and others clenched their fists and gritted their teeth.

There was a noise coming from near the gate of Songpan County.

"Hurry up, you red bandits, beat you bastards to death."

"You damned red bandits have finally met your end."

"Hurry up, don't dilly-dally."

"Drag these red bandits into the city and parade them through the streets. Then take them to Caicaishikou, skin them, and chop off their heads."

Ling Yunzhi looked over and saw dozens of soldiers being captured.

These soldiers were seriously injured and were all skinny and weak.

The soldiers' already tattered uniforms were whipped into rags by these white dogs with whips.

All the soldiers were barefoot, without even a pair of basic straw sandals.

They walked barefoot on the road full of sharp stones, and everyone's feet were covered in blood.

With every step they took, piercing pain spread throughout their bodies.

A young soldier ran out of energy after walking only a few steps and fell to the ground with a thud.

"You little son of a bitch, you dare to play dead in front of me."

"I told you to play dead, but I'm going to beat you to death."

The two white dogs quickly stepped forward, swung their gun butts, and smashed them on the body and head of the young soldier.

These white dogs are ruthless and cruel.

After dozens of hits, the young soldier's brain was shattered and his body was covered in blood, with white and red mixed together and scattered everywhere.

"You can't kill people like this." A female soldier quickly pounced on the young soldier.

"You beasts, he's just a child, how could you have the heart to do that to him?" The female soldier was hit twice on the head by the butt of a gun before she could finish her words.

A bloody hole was instantly smashed on the female warrior's head, and blood gushed out.

"You unfaithful bitch, why are you following a bunch of men all the way here?"

"If this bitch wasn't so dirty, I would have killed him tonight."

When the other soldiers saw that this group of white dogs brutally killed two people in succession, they immediately started fighting.
