Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars

Textile factory director's office

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. The small office is now full of people, each of them looking like eggplants hit by frost.

"Director Wang, is there really no other solution?"

After just a few months of not seeing each other, Xia Xing has become even thinner.

"This, ah!" Director Wang also had no good solution.

He went around the farm every day and knew the situation better than anyone else. All the chickens, ducks and pigs had been eaten, and the grain harvested last year had also been eaten. The only thing left was the vegetables in the vegetable garden, which was the lifeblood of everyone in the factory.

"I know we shouldn't have come here, but you didn't see the leader, the leader..."

"The leader has so much work to do every day, and the daily ration is only 10 taels, which is not enough to fill him up! Especially after October, the leader became visibly swollen, and there were often pits on his legs when he pressed them, and his skin had no elasticity at all.

We are all very worried about his health. Last night during the Chinese New Year, when the chef was making scallion pancakes for him, he tried to boil some lard and added it to the dough. As a result, the leader got angry and scolded the chef! "Xia Xing, a big guy, almost cried as he spoke.

"I won't live anymore! Guohua, tell Xia to take away all the supplies left in the factory!" Wang Shaosheng shouted.

Except for Wang Shaosheng, everyone else said they didn't want any and asked Comrade Xia Xing to take the supplies first.

Everyone is so excited, how could Li Guohua fall behind others?

"There is not much food left in the factory and logistics warehouse, but you don't have to worry. Wait for my good news!" Li Guohua stood up suddenly and said resolutely.

He decided to do something big this time, big enough that it might shock the whole city.

At worst, I can just run away with my wife and kids!

"Guohua, I order you to do it boldly. If anything goes wrong, it's all my fault!" When Wang Shaosheng saw his eyes, he thought he was going to do something illegal, so he quickly took the responsibility.

"How can this be possible? You, Old Wang, are willing to take risks, and so am I. Young man, just decide what to do, and we'll listen to you!"

"Count me in. If you're afraid of death, then you'd better not be a ghost!"

"I am one of them."

Everyone present expressed their support one after another, and some even took out pens and paper and started signing and putting their fingerprints on the document to show that they stood together.

As expected, the more difficult the time, the more heroes will emerge.

Li Guohua was also very moved, and immediately asked everyone to go back to the factory and drive all the cars that could be driven to Kaoshan Village in the north to wait.

Together with Liang Xingguo, he gathered most of the security personnel of the textile factory and all the cars of the truck team, and headed for the northern mountainous area with live ammunition.

The strong wind blew heavy snow like goose feathers, flying in the air, and dozens of cars were driving on the mountain road.

"Guohua, tell me honestly, where are we going? And why is it such a big deal?" Liang Xingguo asked a little worriedly.

He also received a call from the factory director, asking him to cooperate with Li Guohua's operation. He only knew that he had to get food, but as for how and where to get it, he was full of question marks.

"Uncle Liang, you will know soon. Can I still harm you?" Li Guohua said with a wry smile.

There's really no way to explain this kind of thing. No one will believe it if I tell them. I can only do it and not say it.

"Guohua, Uncle Liang has never been so nervous. Tell me the truth!" If it wasn't Li Guohua who did it, if Li Guohua didn't have a record to check, if he didn't know that he wouldn't harm him, he really wanted to turn around and go back.

"Uncle Liang, the last time we went into the mountains, we found several groups of wild boars. Let's go and kill them today!" Li Guohua said mysteriously.

"A herd of wild boars, that's great! But you're making too big a scene this time. In addition to us, there are people from more than a dozen units. What's the use of giving each of us a few boars?" Liang Xingguo thought that Li Guohua was young and didn't think things through.

"Uncle Liang, there are quite a lot of wild boars, and there seem to be a lot of rabbits nearby. When the time comes, you should take people to block the intersection and don't let them run away!" Li Guohua could not give a specific explanation and could only laugh it off.

A bit much?

How many could there be? At most a few dozen.

Although Liang Xingguo thought so in his heart, he still shouted: "Don't worry about this, your uncle Liang has never lost a position before, so you can go with peace of mind, I will meet you outside!"

When they reached a mountain pass, everyone got off the car.

The mountain pass at this location is an inverted triangle. There is a mountain road on the east side, and mountains on the north and south. There is only a mountain road in the middle heading west, going deep into the mountains.

As long as we set up a defense line along the highway, we can block the mountain pass on the west.

"Guohua, take as many heads as you can. Be careful and take this with you!" Liang Xingguo pulled Li Guohua's hat, checked the signal gun on his waist, and finally stuffed a bottle into Li Guohua's hand, saying with concern.

This was given to him by an old comrade who died in battle, saying that they should drink it together after victory, but he had never been willing to drink it. Today, Li Guohua was going into the mountains and might not be able to come out for several days, so he took it out.

"Uncle Liang, wait for my good news. Be sure to arrange the battle lines well, as the noise might be a bit loud!" Li Guohua thought about it and repeatedly reminded him.

"Just go ahead and relax. Didn't you see I almost brought a heavy machine gun with me?"

This time when they came out, the security department and the driver had a total of more than 200 long and short guns and four light machine guns. Not to mention wild boars, even the Japanese would have to surrender.

Li Guohua didn't say much. He saluted Liang Xingguo and plunged into the deep mountains and forests.

Wang Shaosheng waited until Li Guohua left before he began to feel some regret. This winter was different from summer. The mountains were covered with snow, making it difficult to walk, and there were dangers everywhere. He was too impulsive.

"Yangtze River, Yangtze River, I am the Yellow River, I am the Yellow River!"

"Yellow River, Yellow River, Yangtze River received, Yangtze River received, please tell me if you have anything to say."

The entire security department was mobilized this time, and in order to ensure communication, they also brought a radio, which was put to use now.

"Changjiang, Changjiang, please report the situation!"

"Yellow River, Yellow River, everything is fine!"

The waiting time was the most torturous. Li Guohua was gone for three days.

From calling once every half a day at the beginning, the factory now calls almost every hour, worried that something might happen.

Liang Xingguo has also started making a fire to keep warm.

"Captain, do you think something happened to Director Li?" a security guard asked the captain beside him.

It was freezing cold and they had been out in the wild for three days. Everyone was almost freezing.

"Shut up!" The captain frowned and shouted.

He was also very worried. Three days was too long and it was getting dark. He might not come back today.

Section Chief Liang Xingguo has not even slept yet and has been staring blankly towards the west.

"Captain, captain..."

"Shut up!"

"No, captain, look, look quickly." The scolded security guard pointed to the west, gesticulating and speaking incoherently.

The captain also felt a little strange and quickly turned his head to look to the west, only to see a red flare slowly descending from the sky.
