The Rise of the Youth in the War of Resistance

Chapter 135: Once you choose a path, you must follow it to the end

On the night of August 10th, the air gradually became humid after the first rain.

The sky seemed to mourn for the dead, and the blood on the city wall was washed away by the rain, revealing its original earth-gray stone bricks.

Yongxin County once again returned to its former dullness.

On the way back to Pingxiang, everyone was in a trance.

At the end, Zhao Shao was lost in thought, while Nan Nan muttered to herself:

"Shouldn't I have come to this world full of things that have yet to dawn? If it weren't for me, perhaps Platoon Leader Hu wouldn't have died, and Wu Hou wouldn't have died while helping me block the shells..."

At this time, the deaths of Platoon Leader Hu, Wu Hou and others affected Zhao Shao.

Compared to Zhao Shao's confusion, Liu San, the obedient baby before, was extremely silent, as if he had experienced the biggest setback in his life.

The group is transforming from enthusiastic recruits entering the battlefield into mature warriors.

No matter how much silence there is, people will never come back.

After all, there are so many people around who need him to coordinate and arrange things.

Seeing that the forest after the exchange of fire had disappeared far away in the rain, Zhao Shao waved his hand and ordered:

"Everyone, stop and rest for a while!"

So, everyone stopped and turned around to see Zhao Shao waving, and then they were sure that Zhao Shao really wanted them to rest.

Taking advantage of the break to hide from the rain.

Liu San slowly came to the big tree next to Zhao Shao.

Then he hid from the rain aside, but his eyes remained on Zhao Shao, as if he had something to say but couldn't.

Zhao Shao then had the opportunity to take out the yellow paper map wrapped in a bamboo tube. Fortunately, the seal was intact and there was no leakage. Otherwise, if he wandered around in this deep forest, even if Zhao Shao often ran in the forest, he would probably be dizzy.

After a day's journey, Zhao Shao roughly sketched out the map and said:

"From Yongxin County, we walked for about an hour, that is, from Yongxin County to Tailin County. Now we have walked for ten hours, which is about ten times the distance just now. In other words, I am now flashing stones, and if I walk forward a little further, I will reach Pingxiang."

Just as we were about to happily tell everyone that we were about to return to Pingxiang, Zhao Shao denied himself and said:

"No, no, I think I remembered it wrong. We ran when we first left, so it was faster.

Moreover, when we were being pursued by the enemy, we stayed for one hour to eliminate the enemy, and then we moved on. In other words, we traveled for eight hours.

In other words, we are now in Heshan.

After about a day's journey, we will reach Pingxiang."

After confirming the location and itinerary, Zhao Shao began to collect the map, which he had finally gotten back from Wang Yaxin.

.........

At that time, they had just entered Yongxin County and immediately began to fight against the landlords with bad reputations. Among the confiscated items, there were naturally maps.

The map was very detailed, with the locations and distances of the counties near and surrounding Yongxin County clearly marked.

Wang Yaxin was overjoyed when he saw it. Coincidentally, at this moment, Zhao Shao entered the house to report that the families of the landlords in Yongxin County were causing trouble.

Wang Yaxin immediately stopped looking embarrassed, but Zhao Shao had already seen all of this.

Wang Yaxin asked first:

"what's up?"

Zhao Shao asked:

"Report to the regiment commander, what should we do if the families of those landlords who have committed crimes cause trouble?"

Wang Yaxin frowned and said:

"Why wouldn't we give each of those people a dollar and let them go? Why would they still cause trouble?"

"They said their master was wrongly accused and asked you to let them go."

Wang Ya's frown suddenly relaxed, and he said sarcastically:

"These people don't even know what kind of person their master is. It seems they are tired of living and don't want to live anymore. You need to investigate for me. If any of their family members have committed crimes, arrest them. I want to see if they dare to cause trouble again."

"it is good"

"Why don't you leave? Do you want me to treat you?"

Zhao Shao smiled happily.

"Captain Wang, can you let me use the old map on your desk?"

Wang Yaxin asked curiously:

"Oh, you can use a map?"

"meeting"

"Then tell me where Yongxin County is?"

Zhao Shao came to the table, looked at the map, and pointed out the location of Yongxin County.

Wang Yaxin said:

"Well, it seems you have a lot of treasures waiting for me to explore!"

Zhao Shao smiled:

"Captain, please excuse me for laughing. Isn't reading a map a simple matter?

Besides, I've been listening to storytellers since I was a kid, so it should be easy for me to read a few maps!"

"Okay, then I'll give this map to you. Please keep it safe for me. If I need it in the future, remember to return it to me. Do you understand?"

As he spoke, he circled the map and handed it to Zhao Shao.

"Understood, Captain."

Only then did Zhao Shao run out happily, like a child who had received candy.

...short memories

Zhao Shao, who had put away the bamboo tube, happened to see Liu San's gaze on him.

Zhao Shao asked:

"San'er, is there anything on me?

You look at me like that?"

Liu San shook his head, then said with certainty, as if he was about to join the Party:

"I was wondering why you were carrying a bamboo tube with you. So that's how it is. But I remember it wasn't Captain Wang's?

I'm curious how it got to you?

Could it be that the team leader gave it to you?

No, how could the captain casually give you such an important thing? You stole it."

Zhao Shao gave him a slap on the head and said:

"Of course the leader gave it to me. It's for your convenience."

"Oh, then Brother Zhao, can I take a look?"

Zhao Shao took it down again and gave it to him, saying:

"Here, you can watch it if you want."

"Brother Zhao, is that Pingxiang?"

"No, isn't it right there?"

“So small!”
