He leaned the sniper rifle against the tree trunk and found a nearby rock to sit on. Only then did he realize that there had been a cut in his thigh.
Sometimes it's like this on the battlefield. Because of the high mental tension, I can't feel pain. I don't even remember when I was injured. I only feel a burning pain when I'm resting.
"You're injured!" Chen Yiyi appeared beside me at the right time. Without saying a word, she took out the bandage and wrapped it skillfully for me.
"Just now...thank you!" I was surprised to find that in modern times, I, a sharp-tongued person, could actually stutter.
"Thank you for what?" Chen Yiyi raised her beautiful eyebrows. It was obvious that she was asking knowingly.
"Thank you for saving me!"
"You save me once too, and everything is settled!" Chen Yiyi replied without thinking.
I was speechless, and I didn't want to be so confused with each other, but what she said seemed to be the truth.
"That's right!" After thinking about it, I asked again: "How come you, a big girl, can also shoot?"
"Is it weird?" Chen Yiyi answered me while busying her hands: "I have been in Vietnam since I was nine years old. Who among those who grew up in Vietnam doesn't know how to shoot?"
"Oh!" When she said this, I thought it was true. Not to mention that all the people in Vietnam were soldiers. After so many wars in the past decades, it was not surprising that civilians could fire rocket launchers and mortars, let alone guns.
"Squad leader..." At this moment, I heard Little Shitou shouting to me from a distance: "Come and have some soup..."
"Soup?" I couldn't help but feel strange after hearing this. The only food in our army is canned food and compressed biscuits. Where can we get soup?
But looking at a few people with bayonets surrounding a steaming pot...it really doesn't look like a lie.
So I took Chen Yiyi and the two of them up to take a look, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Wow!" These guys had picked a lot of mushrooms from somewhere and were cooking a pot of fragrant soup.
It had been a long time since I had eaten hot food. How could I withstand the temptation? I immediately grabbed the bayonet and handed over the can to fill it, but I found that none of the other soldiers moved.
"What's wrong?" I was a little surprised. These guys don't seem to be such honest people! Are they so kind enough to let me eat first?
"Um... monitor..." After a long time, Xiao Shitou hesitated and said, "We... don't know if this fungus is poisonous..."
"Damn it!" I became furious when I heard this: "I'm sorry you asked me to test the poison!"
"Squad leader, what are you talking about!" The scholar rushed over and said politely: "How dare we let the squad leader come to test the poison? Isn't that right? Everyone said that squad leader, you are blessed with great fortune... let you eat this first
The mouth is the most suitable!"
"That's nice to say!" I cursed angrily: "Isn't that the same as testing poison?"
The few soldiers under my command fell silent after I scolded them like this.
And I was in a dilemma, should I eat it or not?
Eat it, it won’t be easy if something goes wrong. There is a severe shortage of medicines on this battlefield. If you are poisoned and sent to the rear, you will probably die long ago...
Don't eat it, the taste is really mouth-watering, and it has been boiled into soup. Wouldn't it be a pity to just pour it out like this?
At this time, I saw Chen Yiyi wink at me and nod slightly, so I felt confident. Chen Yiyi has been living in the jungle of Vietnam for a long time. Besides, food is in short supply in Vietnam, so eating mushrooms and the like
It is not a common occurrence, so it is not easy to tell whether it is poisonous or not.
So I pretended to clear my throat, put two mouthfuls into the can with a bamboo spoon, blew on it, and drank it in one gulp.
"How about it?"
"How's it going?"
…
Seeing the expressions of the soldiers looking at me nervously, I suddenly had the idea of teasing them, so I suddenly held my stomach and screamed "Ouch, ouch, ouch"... After a while, I lay on the ground and rolled my eyes.
This made the few soldiers under me anxious. They were hurriedly trying to help me and cover their stomachs. Some of them immediately started to blame: "I said you can't drink this soup. Now it's broken. The squad leader
Poisoned!"
I don’t know if it’s because my acting skills are too good or something, but I actually deceived Chen Yiyi with this trick... Then I saw her reaching out to put her hand into my mouth, as if to make me spit out the soup.
Good guy...I can't hide it now.
I had no choice but to end the play by pointing to the pot of soup and pretending to be weak: "This soup, this soup..."
"Squad leader, stop talking!" Xiao Shitou said angrily: "We know this soup is poisonous!"
"This soup..." I took advantage of them not paying attention and shouted, "It's so fresh..."
While shouting, he quickly ran to the pot, minding his own business, and filled the can with a full can in two clicks. The soldiers under his command were stunned for a moment. Then he
I don't know who shouted and ran to the pot to grab it... But unfortunately, the pot was not big to begin with. I filled up a full pot and almost half of the pot was filled, leaving more than enough rice.
How far has the law been divided?
"Come on..." I walked up to Chen Yiyi triumphantly and said, "For the sake of saving my life again, I'll give you half of the bottle..."
Chen Yiyi looked at me and then at the other soldiers who were stamping their feet in annoyance. She couldn't help but cry or laugh.
Looking at the soldiers who were fighting for a little mushroom soup, I couldn't help but smile. In the past, I only thought that the so-called friends were those who could drink and pick up girls together, and it would be good if they could help fight when something happened.
Only now do I know that there is still the kind of friendship in this world that can truly share joys and sorrows without distinction.
The sun slowly sets behind the mountain, and the slanting light shines on the trees, turning the leaves into a bronze color. The sunlight under the trees spreads like a golden tablecloth on the roofs of the old street. The whole old street seems to be shining.
It burned. The yellow-green fields in the distance were gradually submerged in a vague loneliness.
To be honest, if you remove all distracting thoughts, the dusk in Vietnam is actually very beautiful. But it is not beautiful in my heart.
Because dusk means that we will soon face countless mosquitoes, which means that we will soon face harassment from the Vietnamese army...
But tonight we don’t seem to have to worry about harassment from the Vietnamese army. The reason is very simple. The underground Great Wall in Lao Cai has been basically cleared by our army. Even if there are still some remnants, the tunnel entrances are still under the close surveillance of our army.
No matter how much trouble we make, we can't make any big waves.
"Second squad leader, come here..." Just when I was still having a headache about how to deal with the mosquitoes at night, I heard the company commander's cry.
"Yes!" I responded, grabbed the sniper rifle and walked towards the company commander.
I don't know why, but I suddenly felt that the company commander looked at me in a strange way...
"Second squad leader!" The company commander glanced at Chen Yiyi, who was not far away, and asked in a low voice: "Can you tell me more about Comrade Chen Yiyi's situation in detail?"
"Oh!" After hearing what the company commander said, I understood that someone must be doubting Chen Yiyi's identity.
But this is not surprising. There are too many Vietnamese who can speak Chinese, right? Anyone can say that I am from somewhere in China... Although China has a strict household registration system at this time, the household registration system has not yet been counted.
Let's blame the Chinese in Vietnam. Besides, this is also a battlefield. Who has the time to go to the original place of residence to check? The battle here will be over by the time you finish checking over there!
"Report to the company commander!" I didn't dare to hide anything, and explained clearly the process of meeting Chen Yiyi in the tunnel. I especially emphasized two points. First, if it were not for Chen Yiyi, we would probably
Unable to complete the task of blowing up the Vietnamese army's ammunition depot, secondly, Chen Yiyi successfully blocked the Vietnamese army's breakout plan of cooperating inside and outside.
Any sensible person would know that if Chen Yiyi was a Vietnamese agent, he would not have sacrificed the entire underground Great Wall under Lao Cai.
Of course, Captain Li also understood this. After a moment of thought, he nodded and said, "Well, so Comrade Chen Yiyi is trustworthy, so we can use it with confidence!"
"Huh?" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, and said: "Company commander...don't we...not accept female soldiers?"
Although I have not been here long, I know that the army at that time generally did not accept female soldiers. Occasionally, I saw a few female soldiers in art troupes or field hospitals, but all of them had connections and backers.
, are not simple characters, and they are usually not sent to the frontline battlefield.
but now……
"I'm talking about Comrade Yang Xuefeng!" the company commander said meaningfully: "As a person, you have to learn to be flexible. Why not accept female soldiers? Women can hold up half of the force, you know?"
"Oh!" I responded in confusion, thinking to myself that even though this company commander is a jerk, he has a lot of tricks up his sleeve when it comes to fighting, and even after saying so much, it's as if he didn't say anything at all.
Later I found out that the reason why the superiors accepted Chen Yiyi, a female soldier, was firstly because she could speak Vietnamese, secondly because she was familiar with Vietnam’s terrain and troops, and thirdly...she had shown good combat effectiveness before, and the superiors believed her.
She is fully capable of protecting herself.
From this point of view, I still misunderstood just now. Not long ago, I thought someone was doubting Chen Yiyi. Now it seems that this may just be a necessary political review before joining the army.
After a while, Chen Yiyi was also called up, and of course she was asked if she would like to join the People's Liberation Army... No need to think about it, Chen Yiyi agreed without thinking, but she added a condition, that is, she must be incorporated into my army
class……
"You kid!" Before leaving, the company commander secretly pulled me aside and said in a low voice: "You are not allowed to mess around with men and women, do you understand? Be honest!"
My injustice, no one cares about how many times I messed up in modern times, but now I haven’t even started yet... I’ve been warned!
