While Song Wei and the others were treating the wounded outside, the accidents in the cave seemed to be continuing. As soon as the battalion commander came up, he immediately ordered the soldiers in the tunnel to stop the rescue and evacuate immediately.

Song Wei hesitated for a moment after hearing this order, and finally pursed her lips and said nothing.

In the face of nature, human beings are too insignificant. Even in modern times with advanced technology, they are unable to withstand landslides, let alone without rescue equipment. How can flesh and blood fight against natural disasters?

Carrying it hard will only increase the number of casualties.

The battalion commander's decision was correct. Even if he felt distressed, he could only endure it.

Song Wei gritted her teeth and lowered her head again to continue treating the wounded's wounds.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a medical soldier found Song Wei.

"Dr. Song, go see Army Corps."

Song Wei was stunned, and then suddenly remembered that when the accident happened just now, Lu Jiu was almost the first one to run to the bottom of the mountain from below.

After launching the rescue, she did not see Lu Jiu, but the situation was so chaotic that she didn't have time to pay attention.

When she heard the medical soldier's reminder, she couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat.

"What happened?"

"Platoon Xie is gone." The medical soldier looked tired and sad: "The Army failed to rescue Platoon Xie."

No need for the medical soldier to say much, Song Wei guessed what happened.

She immediately put down the wounded and looked for Lu Jiu under the guidance of the medical soldiers.

Night had fallen at this time. If the dry air guns in the tunnel were still roaring into the mountain, fires were lit in the camp at the foot of the mountain and cauldrons were set up. But today, except for the medical soldiers who were busy coming in and out, other people seemed to They all lost their vitality and sat in silence, their eyes full of sadness for losing their comrades.

Today's collapse caused them to lose 31 comrades. Among them, the team led by Xie Pai, except for 4 who came out to learn to drive, all the rest were gone.

They didn't even have time to pull out their bodies, they had already merged with the mountain and stayed in the mountain forever.

But no one here dared to cry, they were all holding back their tears. They knew that as long as one of them cried, everyone would be unable to hold it back.

They are the Iron Ninth Division, the iron-clad Iron Ninth Division that only bleeds but does not shed tears. This is not the first time that they have faced the sacrifice of their comrades. They cannot cry. They can only turn their grief into motivation and continue to move forward with the ambitions of their comrades on their backs.

Therefore, everyone sat in silence, avoiding looking at others to avoid breaking down and crying.

Song Wei passed through the deathly silent camp and found Lu Jiu behind Lu Jiu's jeep.

At this time, Lu Jiu was sitting in the grass next to the jeep, with his tall body facing away from them and his head hanging slightly. Even though it was just like this, Song Wei still saw unspeakable depression and sadness in his back.

At this time, Dongzi and others were guarding Lu Jiu from a distance, but there was a strong low pressure around him, and no one dared to come forward to comfort him.

Seeing Song Wei coming over, everyone stopped talking.

Song Wei nodded understandingly and motioned for them to rest first and leave this place to her.

Dongzi Amao did not hesitate. After all, the few soldiers who had just lost their platoon leader were crying sadly, and they also wanted to take a look.

So Dongzi Amao left decisively.

"Wait a minute." Song Wei called to Dongzi, "Do you still have your cigarettes?"

Dongzi was stunned and instantly understood Dr. Song's intention of asking for cigarettes. He took out a small pack of deflated tobacco and cigarettes from his breast pocket. "Give it all to the captain."

Song Wei nodded, took the cigarette and walked towards Lu Jiu.

……

At this time, Lu Jiu was quietly staring at the shoe in his hand. The sole of this Jiefang shoe had a big hole and was covered with burnt plastic. The upper was so mottled and black that it couldn't be restored to its original appearance. On the inside of the shoe, it said "Xie Fenglin" "Three words.

Obviously, this is a habit of soldiers. Firstly, it can prevent others from wearing the wrong shoes, and secondly, in case of misfortune, the clothes left behind can also declare to others who he is.

Lu Jiu looked at the tattered shoe and clenched it tightly with his hands. The darkness in his eyes was like a whirlpool. Just when he was blaming himself for being so weak and unable to pull Xie Pai out, Song Wei sat on his lap. around.

Song Wei didn't speak, she just opened the cigarette pouch silently and rolled a cigarette for Lu Jiu unskillfully.

"I don't usually advocate smoking, but now I know you're uncomfortable so I'll make an exception. Smoke it. It might feel better."

Lu Jiu didn't answer her, or even move.

Song Wei was not in a hurry. She recalled how Lu Jiu usually rolled cigarettes, rolled a cigarette for him, and then handed it to Lu Jiu.

Lu Jiu still didn't move.

Song Wei glanced at Lu Jiu's hand. The bloody hand was tightly holding a liberation shoe, and the other hand was hanging quietly.

Song Wei sighed, put the cigarette in Lu Jiu's hanging hand, and then stayed beside him quietly, neither comforting nor treating, just accompanying him.

After sitting there for an unknown amount of time, Lu Jiu finally said hoarsely: "Song Wei, can I lend you a hug?"

Song Wei said nothing and told him with practical actions.

Lu Jiu felt a soft body wrap around his back, and the hands crossed his arms and folded on his chest.

He felt like a snail that had been shelled, without any defensive weapons. He could only huddle in place and didn't know how to move forward or retreat. But now Song Wei was holding him from behind, making him feel like a house had grown on his back. .

Lu Jiu's heart softened, and she finally slowly raised her hands and held the hand folded on his chest, along with Xie Pai's shoe.

After a while, Song Wei felt Lu Jiu shrugging his shoulders slightly, and his arms were wetted by a little bit of hot water droplets.

Lu Jiu cried silently, but it made people feel heartbroken. This was the first time that his inner emotions were vented after his father suffered a disaster, was forced to retire from the army, went to the stage of criticism, was left out in the third line, and even saw Xie Plato fall into the subsidence with his own eyes.

He has swallowed too many grievances in the past few years...

Song Wei's eyes were red when she heard Lu Jiu's low sobs. She gently buried her head on Lu Jiu's back, but tightened her hands more and more to let Lu Jiu feel her presence.

He is not alone, he is not alone, he has partners behind him and people who love him.

Seeing that Song Wei hadn't come back for a long time, Liu Yu took advantage of the emergency rescue to come to an end and hurriedly went out to look for him, fearing that Song Wei would go to the tunnel looking for someone in the dark.

Finally, he found the two of them beside Lu Jiu's car.

At this time, Song Wei was hugging Lu Jiu tightly. Lu Jiu was holding Song Wei's hand, his head hanging slightly, and even the blurry figure knew that he was crying.

Liu Yu never dreamed that he would see Lu Jiu's vulnerable side. It was this scene that finally shattered the image of Lu Jiu, the little overlord of the compound, in Liu Yu's mind.

Watching them licking each other's wounds, Liu Yu's eyes were full of sympathy and sadness.
