The southwestern frontier of the motherland is surrounded by lofty mountains and dense forests. On this day, the morning sun had just dyed the treetops red, and the fourteen-year-old Dai girl Ana, pulling her sister Ayi to sing with a bamboo basket on her back, came to the creek to wash her clothes.
Ho, it's like two little sunfinks, what a song! Ana followed the sound and saw that it was three patrolmen and two militiamen, carrying submachine guns, walking out of the dense forest. They are dressed in night dew and sunrise, full of energy and high morale.
Ana said shyly: "No matter how well the sunbird sings, it is not as good as the eagle on the top of the mountain; No matter how well Ana sings, it's a pity that she is not a female militiaman. She earnestly asked the border guard soldier Marin: "When will I be qualified to be a patrolman?" ”
Marinbi said: "Ana's song is good, Ana's mouth is clever, if you want to be a militiaman, grow so tall!" The comrades of the patrol group walked to the creek with a smile, picked up the stream water to wash their faces, and wiped the mud and sand on their feet, ready to continue patrolling.
Ana looked at them carefully for a while and said, "Uncle Marin, you must have an urgent mission, and you haven't slept all night, have you?" Marin teased her, "Hey, it's a military secret, I can't tell you!" Ana smiled and said, "Ahem, hide it from me!" The dew on your body hasn't dried yet, so it's time to lurk and catch spies, right? ”
Marin diverted the topic and asked, "Ana, do you remember the story I told you last time?" Ana said, "Remember, you said that the spy is like a wolf and a fox!" Uncle Marin, let's talk about one more! Marin said, "Okay, I'll tell you when I get back from my patrol." ”
The patrol group turned around the col and disappeared into the dense forest again. Ana and Ayi stood by the stream to wash their clothes, and the clear water was clear, and the sisters sang happily, rubbed their clothes on the stone slab, and washed them in the water, wringing them out and putting them in the back basket.
Ana shook the droplets of water in her hands and straightened up to wipe her sweat. At this moment, a man with a bamboo pole came out of the dense forest. The man was about fifty years old, and wore a tattered felt hat that wore low, revealing only half of his unshaven face. He kept tapping to the ground with the bamboo pole in his hand, exploring the road ahead.
Seeing that he was a blind old man, Ana, sympathetically watched him walk towards the stream, one foot high and one foot low, and said to his sister, "Ayi, wait for me here, and I will lead this old man to the mountain road." Then he pulled out his legs and ran towards the man.
Ana ran to the blind old man and led the way with his bamboo pole. As she walked, she asked the blind old man, "How did you get out of the jungle?" There's no road there! The blind old man sighed and said, "Alas, I can't see, I fell a few somersaults and got lost." Thankfully, three patrolmen sent me out of the jungle! ”
Ana was surprised: "Didn't you say you can't see it?" How do you know that there are three patrolmen? The blind old man said, "Oh, I have learned from them!" Ana asked vigilantly, "Then did they inquire about you?" The blind old man said in a long voice: "Ask me what I am doing, I am an old acquaintance with Marin!" ”
Rough sound, this man's words are reasonable. Ana led him to the mountain road and said to him, "This road is wide and flat, go along with it, I will do my laundry!" The blind old man nodded: "Thank you, kind little girl." With that, he walked along the mountain road.
Ana returned to the stream and remembered what had just happened, and the movement of the laundry gradually slowed down. She thought, "Why haven't I seen this person?" How could he get out of the jungle? Ayi also muttered beside him: "This person is so weird, I haven't seen it either, and said that Uncle Marin is an old acquaintance?" ”
The sister's words made a series of question marks flash in Ana's mind: yes, if it was an old acquaintance and spoke, why didn't Uncle Marin send him up the mountain? No way! Either he just didn't touch the border guards! But how did he know that there were three patrolmen and that he knew Uncle Marin? Could it be that his eyes...
Thinking of this, Ana's heart was so nervous that she was about to pop out, and she anxiously put down the clothes in her hand: "Ayi, do you say this blind old man is a bad person?" Ayi said, "Didn't he say that he and Uncle Marin were acquaintances?" Ana pondered for a moment and said, "No, maybe we let him hear him when we called Uncle Marin just now!" ”
Ana said to her sister seriously: "* Teach us to be vigilant and defend the motherland, this is the national border, but we must not be careless!" I'm going to catch up with him and send him to the outpost!" Ayi said, "Sister, you have to be careful! I'll go back to the village and find the militia! With that, the sisters split up and ran away.
At this time, the Marin patrol group was patrolling the dense forest, and they were vigilantly observing everything around them. "Footprints! Marin suddenly shouted softly, and the patrols and militiamen immediately gathered. I saw that next to a piece of damp moss, there was a clear trace of a slippery foot.
The patrol team took a closer look: the man who had slipped walked a few steps with moss, wiped the mud off the grass under the big tree, and walked all the way to the exit of the dense forest. As soon as you go out there, it's the stream. Who is this man who has crossed the border smuggling? Marin had a grim look on his face.
Besides, when Ana had left the brook and chased after him for a while, and was not far from the blind old man, she slowed down and carefully observed the man's movements: although the man still had a bamboo pole in his hand and made a path search, he was able to deftly avoid the branches that were about to touch his face, and sometimes he quickened his steps to run.
Ana chased after him and shouted, "Hey, you're on the wrong track!" The blind old man pretended not to hear. Ana quickly ran behind him and shouted: "Stop, don't stop, I'm going to call the border guards!" The man hesitated and stopped, and said unhappily, "Little girl, I have something urgent!" ”
Ana said in a soothing tone: "Old uncle, all the people we haven't seen here have to go to the outpost to register, I forgot just now, now you can go with me!" When the man heard this, he suddenly squatted down, panted, and pretended to be very tired, and said, "Have pity on me, blind old man, I can't walk anymore!" ”
Seeing that he refused to go to the outpost, Ana made up her mind to find out the origin of this "blind man". Then she suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Oh, there's a poisonous snake under your ass!" The man jumped up and asked hoarsely, "In **?"
Ana stared at him intently and pointed behind the big rock he was squatting on: "Wow! I saw that the man pushed the felt hat on his head up, revealing a pair of thief eyes shining with cold ** eyes! When he looked over there, there was nothing but rocks and trees!
The fox showed his tail, this blind man is really fake! Standing in front of me is a spy! Ana bit her lip angrily, but she pretended to be looking at something, picked up an old black and dirty straw rope and said calmly: "Oh, blind old uncle, it's my eyes that have dazzled me, and I think it's a snake!" ”
The spy realized that he had forgotten his identity as a "blind man", and he was anxious and angry, but he saw that Ana did not seem to be aware of it, and quickly ripped off his felt hat. Ana shook off the straw rope in her hand and said resolutely: "Okay, now follow me to the outpost to register, otherwise, I won't let you go!" ”
The spy knew that this little girl was not easy to deal with, so he pretended to be helpless and said, "Okay, I'll go." Ouch, I can't walk anymore, you have to help me walk! As he spoke, he reached out his left hand to grab Ana.
Knowing that he had bad intentions, Ana said cleverly, "You wait for me here, and I'll go get my laundry and go with you." As he spoke, he took the opportunity to run away, and shouted: "Catch the bad guys, Uncle PLA, come and catch the bad guys!" The agent was taken aback and plunged headlong into the forest.
Ana thought: It's not good, the mountains here are deep and dense, and if you don't follow it, it's easy for him to slip away! She shouted as she followed her into the forest. The spy ran in a panic, sometimes caught in his clothes by thorns, and from time to time tripped over the roots of trees that were exposed to the ground, and was embarrassed.
In the panic, the agent's tattered felt hat was hooked by a tree branch and fell to the ground. There were two forks in the road ahead, and when he saw that the little girl had not yet caught up, he quickly picked up his hat and slyly threw it on a path where he was carrying firewood, but he fled in the other direction.
Ana chased him to the fork in the road, found the agent's hat, and thought: Why did the hat fall on the path? If it's a tree branch that is hooked off, it should be in the dense forest! Cunning fox, I won't fall for you! She quickly untied the snow-white headkerchief on her head and hung it on a branch beside another road to show the way.
As Ana bravely pursues the spies in the forest, the Marin patrol group returns to the creek. On the bluestone by the stream, the basket and clothes are still there, but Ana and Ayi are gone.
Marin sent a militiaman to the stockade at once to find out what was going on, and he himself led the patrol to prepare for the pursuit along the mountain road. Suddenly, Ayi's excited shout came from behind: "Uncle Marin, go and catch the bad guys!" Marin looked back and saw Ayi and a few militiamen rushing out of the stockade.
Ayi threw herself into Marin's arms, panting and said, "Sister went to chase, catch the bad guys, blind man... Ma Lin said kindly: "Okay, Ayi, don't be in a hurry, speak slowly." Ayi took a breath before she explained in detail what had just happened.
At this time, Ana's subtle shouts were faintly heard from the depths of the mountain forest. Marin immediately raised his gun, "Smack!" Syllable! Syllable! "Three shots were fired into the sky. The sound of gunfire swept over the outposts and villages, the border guards urgently assembled, and the militiamen and the masses took up guns and firewood knives and rushed out of the villages to participate in the battle to encircle and annihilate the spies.
In the dense forest, the spy thought that Ana had been deceived and was just relieved, when he suddenly heard a gunshot in the direction of the stream, and Ana shouted and chased after him. Terrified, he hurriedly hid behind a large tree, drew his dagger, and prepared to poison Ana.
When Ana heard the gunshots, a triumphant smile appeared on her sweaty face, and she thought: "Dog agent, you can't run!" The agent couldn't wait for Ana to get closer, so he jumped out from behind the tree and pounced on Ana with a dagger in hand.
Ana deftly dodged to the side and ducked behind a tree. The agent couldn't restrain himself too hard, and one of them stumbled to the ground. At this time, the voices of the crowd shouting for the arrest of the spies could be heard very clearly.
The agent was very alarmed. Ana shouted loudly while trying her best to hold him back: if the spy escapes, she will chase him; When the spies stop, she stops; The agent pounced, and she retreated. Winding from tree to tree, the agent was tightly entangled, making it impossible for the agent to get out.
When the spy saw that the hard one was not working, he made it soft again, took out a large pile of bills and begged: "Little girl, take this and let me go!" "Ana hid behind a tree, listened to the shouts of the people getting closer and closer, and thought to herself, dragging him is victory! So she deliberately poked her head out and asked, "Is that all there is to it?" ”
When the spy heard this, he hurriedly took out another gold ring and said, "Can you let me go now?" Ana still pretended to be considerate. The spy said, "Little sister, there are quite a few! I've got a gold watch here, all for you! As he spoke, he pulled out another watch.
The shouts of the crowd chasing the spy got closer and closer, and the spy was pale and sweating. Ana said, "Put these things on the ground, and I'll get them!" The agent threw the object to the ground, turned and ran. Ana chased after her, let go of her voice and shouted: "Catch the spy, where are you!" Come and catch the bad guys! ”
The agent was anxious and angry, unable to shake off Ana, who was in hot pursuit. He hurriedly hid behind a tree, picked up a rock, and threw it at Ana. Ana was caught off guard, was hit in the shoulder, and fell to the ground.
The shouts of the crowd chasing the spies are approaching. The spies panicked like ants on a hot pan. Suddenly he noticed a small cave in the bushes, and he pushed through the low bushes and went into them. None of this escaped Ana's eyes, but Ana's injuries soon passed out.
The border guards, militia, and villagers followed the road guided by Ana's white headkerchief and arrived quickly. They held Ana, her shoulders red with blood. Ana came to her senses, pointed to the cave anxiously, and said, "Uncle Marin, leave me alone, the dog agent has gone into the cave, quick, catch him!" ”
A soldier opened a first-aid kit to bandage Ana's wounds, and Ayi kindly held her sister. Border guards and militiamen immediately surrounded the cave. They fired a burst of shots into the cave and shouted inside: "Surrender quickly, you are surrounded!" If you don't come out again, throw a grenade! ”
Another volley of bullets shot into the hole. After a while, a dull echo came from the cave: "Don't, don't fight... The spy finally crawled out of the hole with his hands held high. He shuddered at the sight of mighty border guards, militiamen, and villagers standing in front of him.
The border guards escorted the spies away. The villagers helped the injured Ana on a stretcher and sent her to the cottage hospital.
The villagers rushed to the hospital to express their condolences and praised Ana as a good child. Ana saw Uncle Marlin and said, "Didn't you promise to tell us a story?" Now tell us about it! Marin said, "This time it's your turn to tell us stories!" Tell me how you fought against a cunning enemy! ”
Ana's face flushed. At the urging of everyone, she began to tell the story of tracking the agent. In the end, Ana said earnestly: "We must be vigilant, defend the motherland, and never allow the enemy to enter our beautiful homeland." I just did what I was supposed to do! ”
A few years have passed, and the beautiful southwestern frontier of the motherland has become even more prosperous. The high-voltage line runs through the north and south, and tractors and pumps rumble to form a harmonious music. Border guards and militia patrol the border day and night, and there are two heroic female militiamen in the patrol team, that is, Ana and Ayi.
