Army stab

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Bai did not blow the assembly whistle very kindly. Even so, the gang of trembling soldiers who had long been accustomed to being abused still woke up early.

In the sharp edge base in the early morning, the morning mist filled the air, and half of the sun hung between the mountains. The sun could not penetrate the misty mist, and covered the green pines in the cold weather with a layer of dewy clothes. On the training ground, groups of young figures were standing in front of each other. Hard work.

After Ye Jue got up, Su Mingyuan pulled him to chat with him, asked him how his injury was and how he was doing these days, but before he could ask, Su Mingyuan saw Ye Jue who was putting on his clothes. A red mark, thinking about what it was, made Su Mingyuan sigh, but he couldn't ask anything.

After getting dressed, Ye Jue patted Su Mingyuan on the shoulder vigorously, then straightened his military appearance in the mirror, and said, "Let's go, run around a few times, and I have to report to the brigade after dinner. If you're free today, I'll treat you to a good meal, my young master has paid a lot of pensions recently."

Su Mingyuan stood behind and looked at Ye Jue in the mirror. He had a familiar figure and a familiar smile. Looking at him like this, it seemed that everything in Country E was just a dream, so he nodded and smiled very brightly. : "Then you have to hurry up, my current physical fitness is definitely better than yours."

When the two were circling on the training ground, they met a group of people. Sun Jing, Zada, and Ming Zi were also running. When they saw Ye Jue, the bastards were stunned, but soon they They rushed up from behind one after another, pounced on Ye Jue, lifted them up and threw them into the sky, and Fu caught them collectively.

Ye Jue gasped from being thrown by them, and scolded with a smile: "Fuck, I'm bullying me all by myself! If there are any, one by one!"

Considering that Ye Jue was seriously injured before, the soldiers who committed the second crime did not dare to leave him for too long. After putting him down, they ran around together. They wanted to exchange a few words, but they couldn't say anything too pretentious. I can only express my feelings through the activity of running.

Ye Jue excitedly looked around among the group of people, and not long after, he found that Guan Zhong, who was shouting all day long, was missing from the team, which made him very curious.

"Hey, where's Guan Zhong?" Ye Jue asked Su Mingyuan who was beside him. Su Mingyuan's eyes darkened, and his voice was very low: "Guan Zhong was injured too badly before, and a steel bar was hit in his thigh, but the doctor said it wasn't the last The fatal thing is that the medicine Guan Zhong gave himself hurt his heart, and now he can't do any strenuous exercise."

"How could it be?!" Ye Jue was very surprised. He thought that he had been drawn so much blood in that hospital, conducted various researches, and finally solved the injection of drugs on his body. How could Guan Zhong be so serious? It's not scientific at all, that guy likes to yell nonsense all day long, how could it be like this...

"The doctor said that the dose of the medicine is too high, and there's nothing they can do about it." Su Mingyuan's eyes turned red when he said this. You can see the loneliness in his eyes. No one has ever seen Guan Zhong like this. Even after the South China Sea collision incident, Guan Zhong was not as distraught as he is now.

Ye Jue took a long breath and clenched his fists tightly. Like these soldiers, Ye Jue also knew in his heart that Guan Zhong injected himself with so many drugs for the sake of his teammates, in order not to drag them down, and in order to return to the motherland as soon as possible.

At that time, Mingzi had warned Guan Zhong about the serious consequences of injecting these medicines, but he still chose to sacrifice himself to help his teammates.

Faced with these things, Ye Jue didn't know what to say. He thought of himself in the past, or the self when he was in college and when he first joined the army. He had a mouth so cheap that he could speak eloquently, and he could turn death into life. .

But ever since he came to Sharp Blade, Ye Jue felt that he was becoming less and less good at words, probably because the weight of life and death was too heavy, and all words were so pale in front of this weight.

Ye Jue couldn't imagine what he could say in front of Guan Zhong, say come on, Guan Zhong has always been an indomitable man, he knows better than anyone the principle of never giving up, should he say that he is sorry, this is simply shit A word, because no one can replace Guan Zhong to bear the current trauma.

Because of the seriousness of the topic, the noisy running team fell silent in an instant. The cold wind blew from the west mountain, and the cemetery where unknown heroes were buried brought the smell of iron and blood to the blade, sticky and scorching. .

When the last lap was almost over, Ye Jue saw Xiao Bai running towards them in the opposite direction, his steps were firm against the direction of the light, his figure was like a sharp silhouette.

At that time, Ye Jue heard the voice from the bottom of his heart, selfish and ruthless but it is human nature—fortunately, the person who had the accident was not you, my captain.

After running, he ate the long-lost breakfast in the sharp blade cafeteria. Ye Jue touched his swollen belly, went back to the dormitory to get the report he had written long ago, and then walked to Zhou Rong's office.

Zhou Rong was smoking a cigarette and reading documents in the office. After hearing the knock on the door, he stubbed out half of the cigarette butt, got up and opened the window, and then let Ye Jue in.

Zhou Rong didn't turn on the heating in his office. This is his habit. The cold can keep people awake. In addition, the window was opened just now, so the cold wind blows around the room at this time, and it is even colder than outside.

"Report to the brigade, I'll go through the formalities for returning to the team," Ye Jue stood up straight, Zhou Rong looked him up and down, kicked a stool over, and said in a deep voice, "Sit."

Maintaining an absolutely standard sitting posture, Ye Jue said everything he could say after he returned to the border, and didn't mention a single word that shouldn't be said. In summary, he was taken to a secret hospital by He Weize, A researcher there took a sample of his blood and developed an antidote for his injection. Fortunately, he was only injected once by Li Yu, so the sequelae were not obvious, and the so-called sequelae were heart palpitations with a random probability , this palpitation will disappear after a year.

As for the chip in Ye Jue's stomach, it disappeared after it was taken out. After the chip was taken out, He Weize visited Ye Jue once, and he asked Ye Jue to convey a few words to Zhou Rong. The original words are as follows :

"Uncle Zhou, I'm sorry, I can't go back to the sharp blade to give you an explanation. As you said, even if I did what I thought was right, the sharp blade was indeed taken advantage of by me. Before I set off, I knew that someone would I came to deal with them specifically, but I still didn't care about the life and death of these team members. I was cold-blooded and ruthless and couldn't stand on the land of sharp blades again.

Please don't pursue the matter of Zhao Bowen. He has been transferred to me. As for Zhou Kaifeng who has not returned to the team, he has been included in the list of missing persons. Please don't pursue it any further.

I owe you a lot, and one day I will pay it back, please don't tell the third person these words. "

After listening to Ye Jue's report, Zhou Rong flipped through the well-behaved report in his hand and sneered, "Sure enough, he has grown up, but he has lost his grandfather's demeanor. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse."

Ye Jue looked at Zhou Rong silently, he could see that the team was very uncomfortable, as if a volcano was about to erupt, but they were firmly suppressed.

After a while, Zhou Rong stood up, closed the window, turned his back to Ye Jue and said, "I have finished reading your report, and I will report to the higher authorities in three days, and I will notify you if there is anything wrong, you should go back first." , Don’t tell Xiao Bai these things.”

"Yes!" After saluting, Ye Jue turned around and walked out of the room. Zhou Rong stood at the window and looked out. The sun had already risen, and the training ground was full of lively soldiers, young and full of vigor.

After leaving Zhou Rong's office, on the way to the shooting range, Ye Jue ran into Xiao Bai. The man was standing against a telegraph pole, his military cap was kept very low, and the brim of the hat covered half of his face.

"team leader?"

"The report is over?

"kindness."

"Let's go, I'll take you to see Guan Zhong."

These days, when the team members were training or on missions, Guan Zhong would run up the western hills. He couldn’t run, so he took a slow walk, saying hello to the passing team members from time to time, and when he was tired, he would find a haystack to hide and look up. God, it's an afternoon at a glance.

When Xiao Bai took Ye Jue to find Guan Zhong, he was lying in a haystack, looking at the sky stupidly, his eyes were dull.

Xiao Bai pulled a withered grass root and shook it in front of Guan Zhong, the guy came back to his senses and asked in a daze, "Captain? What can I do for you?"

"Ye Jue is back," Xiao Bai pointed at Ye Jue who was standing next to him, and said with a smile, "Let's come and see you."

"Ouch! Little Yezi!" Guan Zhong jumped up from the ground, and stood in front of Ye Jue with his dark and strong body, which looked like an iron tower. There was a mean smile on his big black face. As usual, he looked awkward: "You actually came with the captain, are you showing affection? It's too unreliable!"

"Get lost!" Ye Jue couldn't help cursing with a smile, seeing Guan Zhong like this, although he felt very sad, but Guan Zhong with such an exaggerated smile is better than a lifeless Guan Zhong.

"It's all nonsense all day long," Xiao Bai pretended to kick him, but his kick was quite light. After the three of them started talking again, Xiao Bai's expression suddenly became serious, and he said, "I've considered what I told you earlier. how's it going?"

The bright smile on Guan Zhong’s face disappeared all of a sudden, and he said with a wry smile: “Captain, it’s not that you don’t know me. Let me do logistics in the sharp blade, and watch you go out for missions and training all day long. Fuck me, I...I know myself as a person, and I won't be able to bear it by then. "

As if he had guessed what Guan Zhong would say, Xiao Bai remained silent and did not speak. After a long time, he asked: "Let's think about it carefully, at least we are still together."

"No," Guan Zhong closed his eyes with a stiff expression, "You all kept it from me, but it's not true that I didn't hear what the doctor said. I'll be like this for the rest of my life. I can feel the steel bar in my leg. Now, I want to jump up, but it is stuck in my bones, it will be there for the rest of my life... As for the heart, I know it too, it will never heal. "

"Captain, I'm already a useless person. I don't want to stand in this place. I have witnessed too many things here. From the time I joined the army until now, I have spent all my time here. I don't want to leave it incomplete. Even if I was buried in the Western Mountains, I wouldn't feel as bad as I do now."

Wiping the tears that slid down his cheeks, Guan Zhong raised his head and looked around the Xishan, which he was very familiar with, and continued with sobs: "Captain, I don't mean to complain by saying this. I may have regretted many things in my life, but I never I regret joining the army back then, and I don’t regret injecting so many bloody medicines. I never regret it, really! I’m just... just a little bit unwilling..."

Speaking of this, Guan Zhong was sobbing, Xiao Bai opened his mouth, but found that there was no sound coming out of his throat, he could only pull Guan Zhong into his arms very fiercely, and fiercely hugged Ye Jue together. hold him.

That day, Guan Zhong cried for a long time, crying like a man, Xiao Bai and Ye Jue stayed with him until the end, they heard Guan Zhong say: "Captain, I've thought it over, I still want to recover, let me go home."

A week later, Guan Zhong's recovery procedures were completed, along with a second-class merit medal, but since this matter cannot be put on the table, there is no notification, reward or commendation. , There is only one military medal alone, counting Guan Zhong's previous second-class merit and two third-class merits, this is his fourth military medal, and it is also the military medal that witnessed him leaving the sharp blade.

On the day when they packed their luggage and set off, everyone in Lijian saw them off at the gate of the base. The neat rows of military salutes entrusted too many silent blessings. Sun Jing stood at the front. He had never cried in his life, but at this time She was still crying like a fool, but even though she was crying, the raised right hand didn't waver at all.

Guan Zhong, who had packed his luggage, originally wanted to leave quietly in the early morning, but he didn't expect so many people to see him off, and he was completely dumbfounded.

The saluting team was very silent, and it was Sun Jing who broke the silence after a long time. He cried and shouted: "Fool! Guan Zhong, you are a fucking fool! Idiot!"

Guan Zhong held back his tears and turned his back. He no longer dared to look at the rows of raised right hands behind him. There are too many concerns and too many friendships here. If you want to walk out of that door, your steps are heavy as if filled with lead. .

This was probably the first and last time in his life that he did not dare to look at his comrades behind him. Guan Zhong walked towards the jeep outside the gate of the base step by step. When he finally opened the door, he heard a thunderous sound coming from behind him. It was like a singing voice, that was what He Weize had sung when he was drunk when he first came to Sharp Blade.

Familiar lyrics, familiar melody, everything is just like before, everything is different again.

From now on, I will take off this military uniform completely, from now on, I will leave this place I have loved with my life, and from now on, I will no longer be able to share life and death with my teammates.

"We are brothers, brothers, brothers

Difficulties and blessings

Do you still remember this oath?

I will never forget in this life

......"
