On that day, 12 children's group members came back from the countryside happily, singing and dancing. However, due to the emergency, the large troops had to leave before waiting for them.
At this time, with a "wow", Qu Fei, who was only 10 years old, squatted on the ground and began to cry. When the cry rang, everyone suddenly lost his mind. Some of them stamped their feet, and some simply joined in the crying.
Think about it, too. The youngest of them is 10, and the oldest is only 13. Who has thought about the future? Who has faced such a big event?
A child said timidly, "Why don't we all go home?" As soon as the voice fell, someone objected: "I want to break up! It is that the revolution is not firm! " Then someone said, "If you want to go home, go home by yourself. We will never go back! " "
Don't go home, but there must be a way not to go home. A dozen small mouths, you say a word, I say a word, noisily out of the idea. Finally, the older He Lianying said, "Let's take the road of the Red Army and catch up with the big troops!"
Her idea is like pulling everyone out of a pot of porridge. Her confusion is gone and her future is bright. So everyone answered with one voice: "Good!"
Just say yes. This group of girls with a little combat experience and revolutionary ideals set up a "special action group" with dignity.
Elect the team leader who has his own ideas and make an action plan: divide the staff into several groups, pretend to be beggars fleeing abroad, pretend not to know each other during the day, go their separate ways and meet again at night. After inquiring about the direction of the troops, they embarked on a journey to catch up with the Red Army.
In late spring in northern Sichuan, the earth is decorated with bright yellow and oily green, and butterflies are flying in it, tempting people to linger. However, they are eager to return to the team, but have no intention of stopping to play. Everyone has saved enough energy to move on.
This road is not so easy to chase.
First of all, we need firm willpower. The blockade and interrogation of the enemy is still a minor problem, because they are all children, and it is easier to escape the suspicion of the enemy.
And sleeping all the way is the real test. Sweat on sunny days, mud on rainy days, drink spring water when thirsty, eat when hungry, and never sleep well at night.
Once, they buried their heads in the road. It was dark and they couldn't walk, only to find themselves in the middle of nowhere. In this desolate place, they are afraid. At this time, I don't know who shouted: "There is a home ahead!" " "
Everyone looked up and there seemed to be a big house in front. When I got closer, I found it was a ruined temple. The shadow pupil of the statue in the temple is getting weirder and weirder because of disrepair. Timid to stop, afraid to go forward.
A little bolder said, "The shop is better than this field." In this way, they pulled one by one, leaning against the wall and didn't sleep a wink all night until dawn.
In addition to willpower, you need enough endurance. The first thing to endure is hunger. They walked all the way in search of food. However, the farther away from the Soviet area, the more difficult it is. Farmers along the way are poor because of the exploitation and deduction of landlords.
Most people don't have enough to eat, and there is really nothing to help them. On the night when they lived in the temple, at dawn, they ate 1 15 steamed bread, which was a tribute of the temple.
This gave them a delicious meal. But after eating this meal, they couldn't find anything to eat anymore, and they were hungry all day.
After the meeting in the evening, the team leader and other winners called everyone together and said, "Now we can't find food in farmers' homes, so we'll go to the big eaters." "The so-called" big eater "means going to those rich families and expressing their willingness to work for them, just to eat, not to get paid, or to adopt a child.
This was a good method at that time. However, for them, the purpose of "eating big" is to continue to catch up with the team after eating and drinking enough.
This requires them to handle the time of going or staying very tactfully. They often set a good signal, one person strung together, and the rest took some dry food and found a chance to slip away.
One night, they finally reached the edge of the grass. Everyone was tired and hungry, so they couldn't walk. They all sat on the ground. The wet grass is filled with moisture and cold.
Just when they were tired, suddenly, a bonfire was lit in the distance. At one time, at one time ... everyone stood up at once, jumped up in unison, and immediately sent two people to inquire.
"Found it! I found it! It is the Red Army, it is our army! " When they brought back the news, everyone was so excited that tears came to his eyes. Seeing these red children catching up with the team, the big brothers and sisters opened their eyes strangely and held them tightly in their arms.
In this way, these 12 little red devils passed through Jiange, Jiangyou, Zhongba, Xiabeichuan and Maoxian all the way, escaped the attack of the needle wolf and bison, got rid of the kidnapping of traffickers, overcame various difficulties such as disease and hunger, and finally caught up with them after more than three months' journey of 1000 miles.
