Chapter 56: Youth Shock Brigade

~8 min read 1,506 words

After a night of rest, the troops sent personnel to carry out a comprehensive survey of Laoyingzui, including the determination of the direction and the setting of the anti-collision wall on the side of the road. After measuring for a day, the conclusion was not optimistic.

The only way to open a road that can walk two cars side by side in Laoyingzui is to hollow out the giant stones, let the road walk in the stone mountain, and form an open tunnel mode. The tunnel walks in the belly of the mountain, without seeing the sun. Open-style, as the name suggests, means that one side can see the sun, but the top of the road is stone, which means digging into the stone mountain along the current road surface to dig out a road.

Everyone was at a loss. The amount of engineering was too large, and the progress was too slow. Digging out a half-kilometer-long stone road is no different from the old fool moving a mountain. Zhang Yingzhang, my uncle, had to mobilize his soldiers, saying that soldiers should dare to fight hard battles. Difficulties are not terrible, what is terrible is having no confidence.

The officers and soldiers of the army like this set the most. After a mobilization, everyone was eager to try, and the feelings were high. Some even wrote blood letters, saying that if they couldn't take Laoyingzui, they would swear not to be human.

I was sent by Liu Quan to follow up on the work, and Zhao Jinming was temporarily transferred to Quanshui Village.

Originally, I thought that a car of explosives would not work, but now it began to be of great use.

According to the engineer's calculation plan, eyes were drilled and explosives were filled. The first cannon shook the earth and mountains, scaring the chickens and dogs in Laoyingzui. After the smoke dissipated, Zhao Deliang climbed up, stepped on the broken stones all over the ground, and sighed in amazement.

With the experience of the first cannon, the subsequent work went much more smoothly. Zhang Yingzhang said to me conceitedly, "Xiao Feng, let me tell you, there is no work that our troops can't do. The more others can't do, the more it is a piece of cake in the hands of our soldiers."

My uncle looked at me left and right and said, "Your aunt always says you will have great prospects, why can't I see it?"

I smiled and said, "Zhang Yingzhang, what great prospects can I have? A secretary in a remote township, if I do it to death, I will at most be a deputy township head." Suddenly, I remembered that after Township Head Hao passed away, the county had not sent a township head down. Could there be any trick in this?

My uncle patted me on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you have to look further. Think about when I was your age, I was a platoon leader."

I laughed secretly in my heart. How much older are you than me? My aunt is less than four years older than me. You are my aunt's classmate, can you be older than the sky?

The county sent a TV station reporter to interview, and Huang Qishan also came on behalf of the Youth League Committee, wanting to discuss with me the organization of a youth shock brigade. I smiled nonchalantly and said, "Secretary Qishan, you go to Laoyingzui Village yourself and see who you like, just pull them in."

Huang Qishan said very seriously, "I have asked Secretary Guan and County Magistrate Liu about the youth shock brigade, and they all agree very much. County Magistrate Liu also specifically explained that the shock brigade is engaged in Suxi Township, so the captain should be selected from Suxi Township. At this time, the countryside has been divided into households, and it may be difficult to organize. I think, the more at this time, the more we must reflect the organization and cohesion of the government."

I said, "Like the Iron Girl Team of the past?"

Huang Qishan smiled and said, "The nature is similar, but the content must be different. In the past, the whole country was a game of chess, a product of the era."

I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Huang, you have given me a difficult problem. Who will come to participate in any shock brigade now."

"County Magistrate Liu asked me to ask for your opinion. How about you be the shock brigade captain?" Huang Qishan ignored my opinion and moved Liu Qimeng out to suppress me. Maybe County Magistrate Liu did say such things, but the shock brigade was under the County Youth League Committee, and in the end, wasn't it Huang Qishan's credit?

I teased, "Are men and women okay? Youth shock brigade, can married people participate?"

Huang Qishan called the county TV station reporter, pulled me and said a few words: "Secretary Chen will grasp who enters the shock brigade." Then he expressed his feelings about the current situation and the status quo of Suxi Township. The general idea was that the County Youth League Committee, under the leadership of the County Party Committee and the County Government, was determined to change the poor and backward appearance of the agricultural ancient township, etc., and took a few shots.

Just happened to see Sister Yue Bai coming over with a basket, I pointed to her and said to Huang Qishan, "Do you think she can?"

Huang Qishan narrowed his eyes and looked at it and said, "Youth shock brigade, age is actually not important, the key is attitude."

I shouted to Sister Yue Bai, "Sister Yue Bai, are you busy? Can you come over for a moment?"

Yue Bai raised her head when she heard the sound. Seeing it was me, she came over smiling and asked, "Secretary Chen, do you have anything to do with me?"

I said, "Sister Yue Bai, there is still something that needs you to go out in person."

Yue Bai puffed out her chest and said, "What's the matter? As long as it's your business, it will definitely be done."

I pointed to Huang Qishan and introduced, "This is Secretary Huang of the County Youth League Committee. He wants to organize a youth shock brigade in our Suxi Township. I think, please come to be the captain."

Yue Bai waved her hand and said, "Secretary Chen, look at me, I'm an old woman, what youth shock brigade to do, are you laughing at me? Sister-in-law will not forgive you."

I smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is just in her prime, how young, how beautiful." There was another sentence "how sexy" that I pressed in my throat and didn't say. Huang Qishan was present, and this sentence was a bit abrupt.

"Do you think sister-in-law can still be this captain?" She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, revealing her white neck.

I said, "Of course you can, don't you think so? Secretary Huang."

Huang Qishan smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, you can do it. Very good."

"That's good, I'll be the deputy captain, and you be the captain." Yue Bai agreed readily, which was beyond my expectation.

I scratched the back of my head and said, "Let's let sister-in-law be the captain."

Yue Bai turned and left, her face covered with a layer of frost, muttering in her mouth, "Then I won't do it."

I hurriedly stopped her and said repeatedly, "Sister-in-law, just follow your meaning."

Yue Bai showed a smile, and then asked me, "Youth shock brigade, what is it for?"

I said, "Secretary Huang will have instructions, we just have to establish it first."

Yue Bai smiled and said, "Just the two of us?"

I said helplessly, "Didn't I ask you to be the deputy captain? Sister-in-law, you consider the matter of recruiting troops and buying horses."

"This is easy to handle." Yue Bai said confidently, "If it is to work with these soldiers, I guarantee that there will be as many big girls and little daughters-in-law as you want."

Huang Qishan immediately understood the meaning and immediately said, "We must pay attention to policy."

Yue Bai rolled her eyes at him and said, "What policy, if you want the horse to run, you have to let the horse eat grass." After speaking, she left us and walked away lightly with the basket.

I chased after her and said, "Sister Yue Bai, what is your decision?"

Yue Bai looked at me and said, "Do you really want to know?"

I nodded and looked at her sincerely.

"If you really want to know, then go to the back mountain pond after dark tonight and wait for me, I will tell you." Yue Bai whispered to me, and then walked away on her own.

I stood there blankly. I knew what kind of place the back mountain pond was. That was the place where the women of Laoyingzui took baths! ===== CHAPTER 57 =====
