After the failure of the fifth counter-"encirclement and suppression", the Red Army was forced to embark on a long march of 25,000 miles. Along the way, the Red Army climbed snowy mountains and meadows, endured thousands of difficulties and dangers, and created historical miracles.
However, when crossing the grass, there was a 13-year-old little Red Army, who was temporarily dispatched because of a stomachache. When he returned, the vast grassland was already empty.
So, the little Red Army embarked on a journey to find the large army alone...
So can the small Red Army smoothly rendezvous with the large troops? What will he experience on the way?
The little red army that fell behind
The little Red Army who fell behind was called Luo Yuqi and joined the Red Army in 1933.
Under the "encirclement and suppression" of the Kuomintang, he followed the large army on the Long March. In the autumn of 1935, Luo Yuqi's unit came to the Zoige grassland.
Regarding the crossing of the grassland by the Red Army, the founding general Zhang Aiping once wrote such a poem: "The green plain is boundless and full of wind and smoke, and the height is not knee-footed in the quagmire." Wild vegetables are boiled in water to warm the belly, and hay is burned to ward off the night cold. ”
It can be seen from this that the Red Army fed itself with wild vegetables and weeds for a long time when crossing the meadow, and the conditions were very difficult. Although Luo Yuqi was still young at that time, she also ate the same food as everyone.
His will was able to hold on, but his body resisted. One day, not long after Luo Yuqi ate the weeds, her stomach began to ache sharply.
He wanted to solve it nearby, but because there were female comrades in the team, he decided to run farther to solve it. Because his stomach hurt so much, he delayed a little longer.
When he rushed back, he was completely stunned in place...
At this time, there was only a vast meadow in front of him, and the large army had long disappeared.
Luo Yuqi reacted at this time, he must have been separated from the troops. This could have made him anxious, and if he could not find a large army, he would probably die in this meadow.
But the grassland is so big, where should he start?
At this time, Luo Yuqi calmed himself down and comforted himself: "The troops should not have gone far, I will definitely be able to catch up with the team!" ”
In this way, the little red army, with the memory in his mind, embarked on a journey to find the large army.
So can he succeed?
Team hunting tour
As General Zhang Aiping wrote in her poem, the grass seems to be open and boundless, but in fact it is full of dangers, and if you don't pay attention, you will fall into the swamp quagmire.
Just a few days after leaving, Luo Yuqi's feet began to swell under the baptism of sewage. With every step he took, there was a sharp pain in his feet.
In this way, Luo Yuqi walked slower and slower. Even so, he did not give up and continued to move forward with a stick. Soon, his feet were worn out, so he took local materials and applied grass to the wounds.
When he was too hungry to hold on, he took out his treasured nest head, carefully took a small bite, and put it back. Along the way, he told himself: "Can't give up, I will definitely find the team!" ”
A few days later, his treasured nest head had been eaten, and there was no more food on him. Luo Yuqi is young, and she has to walk so many roads every day, it is difficult to stick to it without food, and she will even starve to death on the road.
Sure enough, Luo Yuqi, who had run out of food, became weaker and weaker, and suddenly fell to the grass. Just as he was about to fall unconscious, there was a sudden movement in the grass.
He looked up and saw a person. Luo Yuqi saw the other party wearing a five-pointed star hat, and immediately rekindled hope, and his heart was excited, and tears were about to gush out of his eyes in the next second.
After walking for so many days, he thought that he would explain to this meadow, but he did not expect to meet his comrades at this time. After inquiring, I learned that the other party was also a soldier who was separated from the troops.
As the saying goes, "everyone collects firewood and the flame is high", even if there are only two of them, their strength is always much greater than that of one person. So the two decided to travel together and embarked on a team search journey again.
So, what happens to them next?
Meet your comrades halfway
Two men with sticks helped each other to walk on this grass.
After walking for a while, they found traces of people again. What excites them is that this time it is not one person, but a group of people.
The two excitedly threw down the sticks in their hands, waved into the air and shouted: "Comrade! Homosexuals! Wait for us! ”
After that, the two of them couldn't care about the injuries on their bodies, and ran towards the team in front.
When he arrived at the team, Luo Yuqi found that most of the soldiers in the team were wounded. In order not to delay the overall speed of the march, they voluntarily withdrew from the ranks and marched alone.
At this time, a tall man stood up and said, "You guys are left behind? The tall man, named Li Yusheng, held the position of deputy company commander in the ranks.
So, Luo Yuqi told him the beginning and end of his separation from the team.
Then, Luo Yuqi asked, "Company Commander Li, do you know where the big army has gone?" Will we be able to catch up with the large forces? ”
"Little ghost, rest assured, it's time for our large army to get out of the meadow. We can walk for a few more days and we will be able to walk out of the grass to meet the team! ”
Listening to Deputy Company Commander Li's words, Luo Yuqi was like taking a "reassuring pill", and his heart was much calmer.
On the later march, Luo Yuqi learned that Deputy Company Commander Li was originally marching with the large army. But later, because the correspondent was missing, he let the team go first and went back to find the correspondent himself.
On the way to find a communicator, he encountered these wounded one after another, so he collected them and took them with him. After that, Deputy Company Commander Li, Luo Yuqi and others encountered several wounded, and the team grew to nearly 50 people.
Because most of the soldiers were wounded, and some of the soldiers were still seriously wounded, the march was very slow, and the mood of the soldiers was very low.
At this time, Deputy Company Commander Li stood up and said, "Comrades! Don't give up! If we grit our teeth and hold on for two more days, we will definitely be able to go out and go out! ”
With the encouragement of Deputy Company Commander Li, can everyone get out of the meadow?
The Red Army was not afraid of difficulties in expeditions
After that, Deputy Company Commander Li ordered the lightly wounded to take care of the seriously wounded, and food was left for the seriously wounded first. Under his command, the loss in the team disappeared, and everyone rekindled hope for getting out of the grass.
One day, Deputy Company Commander Li went out looking for food and came back with a goat in his hand. The fighters have not eaten meat for a long time and are naturally delighted.
That evening, the goats were made into a delicious meal. Looking at the fragrant lamb, the soldiers spontaneously left the meat for the seriously wounded.
It is precisely this spirit of unity, selfless dedication and perseverance that enabled the Red Army to complete this arduous long march.
Although this goat is not big, each warrior only eats a little, and some people can't even eat it, but everyone eats very satisfied.
The next day, on the way forward, a soldier unfortunately fell into the mud. Seeing this, Deputy Company Commander Li quickly asked everyone to bring the straps and connect them together.
Even if everyone works together, it is still difficult to pull him up. The trapped soldier could not bear to drag down the troops, and said with tears in his eyes: "You guys go quickly, leave me alone!" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about! You are our comrade-in-arms and must not be left behind! ”
With everyone's efforts, the fighter was finally rescued.
After that, the team united and walked out of the meadow after 3 days to successfully join the large army.
Luo Yuqi, the little red army, witnessed the great spirit of the Red Army along the way, and also experienced the test of the Long March, and then became a real soldier.
As Chairman Mao said: "The Red Army is not afraid of difficulties in expeditions, and thousands of rivers and mountains are only waiting for idleness." ”
Along the way, the soldiers of the Red Army fully carried forward the spirit of revolutionary optimism, successfully survived the 9981 difficulties with tenacious perseverance, and created a historical miracle!
Finally, let's pay tribute to these greatest people!
