The fat man took a platoon of brothers and the health company to appear together to find the gas bombs thrown by the little devils from the plane, and sure enough, as Shen Lina of the health company said, many bombs dropped by the little devil's plane were found in many rivers in the base area, one by one like little dolls in the water, at this time the white smoke on it had already dispersed, Shen Lina had already asked Zhou Wu to bring the gas masks that he had just brought from Su County, and saw the first bomb, The fat man ordered the brothers to put on what looked like pig's nostrils, and cautiously approach the bomb that had not exploded.
Shen Lina followed behind the fat man, seeing that the brothers were about to go into the water to move the bomb that did not explode, and shouted: "Brothers, don't move, be careful that the river water is poisonous."
The fat man heard Shen Lina's shout, and hurriedly asked the brothers to step back, not to contaminate the water polluted by the devil's poisonous gas, and the brothers heard the fat man's shout, and they all stopped, watching Shen Lina wearing a gas mask and gloves and leather boots carefully scoop up some water from the river.
Shen Lina said to the fat man: "I have to take these water samples to the health company for testing, you still take the doctor of our health company to look elsewhere and make a mark here, I think the results of this water sample will come out immediately." ” As soon as the fat man heard that Shen Lina was going back to the health company immediately, he sent a squad of brothers to escort her back, and he took the rest of his brothers along the river water source to find the gas bombs dropped by the devil's plane, and soon found a similar bomb more than ten miles away.
Handed over to Shen Lina of the Health Company for laboratory testing.
Shen Lina After they returned to the health company, they immediately carried out laboratory tests, under the high-powered microscope, Shen Lina saw a line of active plague bacilli, Shen Lina hurriedly ran out to report to Zhou Wu: "Brigade, the big thing is not good, the bacterial bomb dropped from the devil's plane is the plague bacillus, this is a virulent infectious disease, once it is infected on a large scale, then our entire Jiangbei anti-Japanese base area will become a no-man's land" Of course, Zhou Wu knew that some of the whole plague was powerful, and hurriedly asked Shen Lina: "Then can this infectious disease be controlled now, and how does the germ spread?"
"This bacterium is spread by rats and fleas, etc., once someone in the base area inadvertently catches the plague, then he can spread it to the next person through the air, very quickly, if there is no specific medicine, symptoms appear, usually not last more than three days before death," Shen Lina said.
"Ah, then what should we do if there is such a special medicine for the plague in the batch of Western medicine we brought from Suxian" Zhou Wu hurriedly asked Shen Lina, this time the matter is troublesome, once the soldiers and civilians in the base area are infected with this virulent infectious disease, there will be immeasurable losses, and the Jiangbei anti-Japanese base area that has worked hard to develop and grow will be destroyed in one fell swoop, Zhou Wu felt that the matter was big at this time, and it was impossible for him to bear such a heavy burden as a small independent brigade commander, so he hurriedly asked the brigade staff officer to urgently call the division commander Li.
Zhou Wu reported to the division commander: "Division commander, according to the determination of Comrade Shen Lina of our Independent Brigade Health Company, what the little devil threw down from the plane this time was the deadly and virulent infectious disease plague, and according to the fact that we sent people to search the water sources around the base area, we found that this bacterium spread very widely, and if this virulent infectious disease breaks out, it will be a catastrophe for all the soldiers and civilians in our entire Jiangbei anti-Japanese base area, and according to Comrade Shen Lina's analysis, it may become a no-man's land."
The division commander obviously felt the urgent pressure, Shen Lina, as the leader of the health company of the independent brigade and a top student of the Higher Medical College, was an authoritative expert on this issue, and she found that there were plague germs in the water source, which would generally not be bad, and now the question was how to minimize the losses and avoid the terrifying situation of a large-scale plague outbreak.
The division commander was silent on the radio for a long time, and finally ordered Zhou Wu: "Comrade Zhou Wu, this time you will be responsible for eliminating the plague germs, finding the devil team that released the poison gas, and immediately eliminating them, if there is anything that needs to be coordinated by the Jiangbei Anti-Japanese Headquarters, I will greet the comrades below, you can deal with it on the spot, you don't have to report everything."
This means that the division commander has handed over all the heavy tasks of dealing with the devil's bacteriological warfare troops to Zhou Wu's hands, and he can deal with it on the spot, and he can mobilize the New Fourth Army under the Jiangbei Anti-Japanese Command, Zhou Wu listened to the division commander's order, and his heart was contradictory and surprised, the contradiction was that he did not have much confidence in whether he could control the spread of the plague in the base area, in case he could not control it, the consequences would be unimaginable, even if the superiors would not be so difficult for him, but Zhou Wu thought that so many soldiers and civilians would die because of his mistakes, and he would be blamed in his heart, The surprise is that it seems that the division commander is trusting himself and the independent brigade more and more, and even such a big matter is handed over to me this time, if I can't handle it well and live up to the expectations of the division commander, then how can I mix in the New Fourth Army in the future Zhou Wu put down the radio station, fell into deep contemplation, thought for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and decided to do it, since the division commanders and they trusted our independent brigade so much, and entrusted the lives of thousands of anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians in the Jiangbei base area to our independent brigade, how could our independent brigade shirk the matter with too much responsibility, it would be too irresponsible, we must not only dare to take responsibility, but also work hard to do a good job, so that we can be worthy of the people in the Jiangbei base area who have raised us for so many years.
Zhou Wu immediately instructed the staff officers of the brigade headquarters: "Quickly, quickly call Commander Huang Shuisheng, Regiment Commander Ge Sanmin and Regiment Commander Xiao Zheng of the Third Regiment to the brigade headquarters, there is an urgent military briefing."
Taking advantage of the time when the staff officer of the brigade headquarters went out to call people, Zhou Wu and the political commissar of the independent brigade Niu talked in detail about the situation of the devil throwing poison gas bombs at the outside base area, and after hearing this, the political commissar Niu said to Zhou Wu with a solemn expression: "Comrade Zhou Wu, this time the burden is not light, but since the superiors trust us so much, we should bear it, rest assured, I will carry it with you, and when the comrades come, we will discuss a practical method, first control the plague and plague that is about to break out in a large area, and try to kill as few people as possible.
Minimize the losses in our Jiangbei base area" "Yes, Lao Niu, to be honest with you, after coming to the New Fourth Army for so many years, there is nothing more critical than this time, and I can't be sure, whether I can control this situation or not, I am worried that if the villagers below know the news of the devil's release of germs, will it cause panic and riots, since the little devils in Nanjing sent a bacteriological warfare team to drop bacteriological bombs on the outside base area, then they will definitely not have such a trick, but will send many spies into the outside base area, spreading panic rumors everywhere, sow discord, create turmoil, and then the little devils will send troops to wipe out the anti-Japanese forces in our base areas."
Zhou Wu said to the political commissar worriedly, too, Zhou Wu has never been as unsure about those things in the past as he is now, not only because this time he has to deal with super germs that he knows nothing about, and those notorious and countless killer germ warfare troops, but because of his lack of confidence in whether he can control this critical situation, he thinks: If he fails to deal with this poison gas bomb, then he will definitely become a sinner, a big sinner who has caused thousands of lives in the base area, This is Zhou Wu's true state of mind at present, contradictions and hopes coexist, challenges and good opportunities to annihilate the enemy, the key depends on whether he has the courage and wisdom to turn danger into relief, seize the good opportunity, eliminate the bacteriological warfare troops of the devils, completely cut off this cancer that has endangered China for many years, and avenge the countless Chinese who died under their hands "Lao Niu, I am not as good as you in political work ideological propaganda and mass work, this time I think that if we want to deal with this poisonous gas crisis smoothly, we still have to look at your mass work, so that we can keep the common people in the base areas from being caught by rumors and not being provoked by devils' spies, as long as we are stable internally, then we are not afraid of little devils."
"yes.
Comrade Zhou Wu, you are right, it seems that you have made progress in the past few years since you came to the New Fourth Army, although you are not yet a party member, but I can vouch for your personality that you can definitely join our party, and now the time is very tight, after this poison gas incident is resolved, I will be your introduction to the party, and I hope you can join our party.
Work with me to do better things for the people, our New Fourth Army is actually doing things for the people, why do the villagers in these base areas provide us with food and clothing, don't you want us to drive out these little Japan who invaded our country as soon as possible Since the Japanese army attacked Shenyang Beidaying in 1931, it has been a full 12 years now, and the people are looking forward to defeating the little devil as soon as possible, no longer being angry with the little devil, and no longer being a slave of this country.
Of course, I don't mean that you, Comrade Zhou Wu, as a soldier who has served as a middle- and lower-ranking officer in the Kuomintang army for a long time, resolutely broke with the Kuomintang clique and threw himself on our side, which is already very remarkable.
You can bring the independent brigade team over, participate in the New Fourth Army, and fight against the little devil here in the New Fourth Army for more than four years, it is not easy, and it is also quite remarkable, and it is actually normal to have this and that worry now, I will definitely support you no matter what kind of situation arises in the future" Lao Niu Political Commissar once again expressed his firm support for Zhou Wu's decision, and this statement made Zhou Wu feel a little more confident in his heart. t1706231537:
