his robbery

Chapter 66 Ambition

Gu Chengxi copied Lian Yi's temporary headquarters.

He and Lian Yi had a close relationship. When they entered the headquarters, there was still a pot of hot water sitting on the stove in the corner of the room.There are three rooms inside and outside the headquarters. There are tables and chairs on the outside, like a conference room; a small living room in the middle, which is similar to an ordinary family’s living room, and the innermost room is a bedroom with a heated Kang. There are piles of satin clothes.Under the kang lay a half-grown child who was dying. The bullet was shot through the throat, and a big blood hole was opened in the neck, and the ground was covered with a layer of soft and trembling blood jelly.

Gu Chengxi knew that he was one step slower, and one step slower, one step slower, the harder he pressed, the faster Lian Yi would escape.Standing in a pool of blood and lowering his head, he watched the half-grown child grit his teeth and sigh.The half-grown child was half-naked, with thin and fair skin, and a pretty face. In Gu Chengxi's eyes, it was a pity to die.

Seeing the credit in his eyes, he just couldn't get it.Gu Chengxi walked out step by step with bloody footprints, feeling very unhappy.If Lian Yi can be captured alive or dead, and sent to Huo Xiangzhen, he will have more face and more prestige.Well now, the half-cooked duck flew out of the pot, and I and Sun Wenxiong might be guilty of it!

Gu Chengxi raised his hand and pushed the brim of his military hat, and walked outside the headquarters with a bitter face.This camp was turned upside down by them all night, and all the corpses were counted, because it was rare to find a complete one.Standing in the sea of ​​corpses like a living hell, Gu Chengxi took off his military cap and dried his sweat in the cool morning breeze—it was okay, although he didn't kill Lian Yi, but he killed many of Lian Yi's soldiers.

There are a lot of good goods in the camp, besides the ammunition, there are also several boxes of smoke and earth.Sun Wenxiong went to find Gu Chengxi, whispering and biting his ears.When he finished speaking, Gu Chengxi raised his hand to wrap his shoulders, and said in a low voice at the back: "I don't want it, I'll give it all to you. I don't like this, I take it out and I don't have a place to sell it. You let Someone carried it to a big carriage and covered it with a bag of grain and grass. It happened to be a big gift for your father-in-law when you returned to Baoding. But don’t touch it yourself. It's a nuisance, too, isn't it?"

Sun Wenxiong has a fat daughter-in-law in Baoding. In Gu Chengxi's opinion, that daughter-in-law is worthless, but Sun Wenxiong loves her very much, and by the way, treats his father-in-law as his own father.Originally, Gu Chengxi wanted to be top-notch everywhere, which aroused his jealousy, but after dating Gu Chengxi in private for a long time, he found that this person is actually quite good, and at a young age, it is a good thing to be top-notch, not a problem.

"Then I'm not welcome!" He smiled at Gu Chengxi, "I'll take it all away!"

Gu Chengxi patted him on the shoulder: "Hurry up and be lucky. We have achieved success in this battle. I'm afraid the commander-in-chief will come over to check in person later."

After listening to Gu Chengxi's words, Sun Wenxiong hurriedly transported away the smoke and soil in the camp.Gu Chengxi was a small soldier under the command, and quietly removed the five heavy machine guns and hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition in the arsenal—now that the world is in chaos, whoever gets it gets it.He has always managed his regiment as a daily life, and after a battle, he knows who died and who was injured.Since we are living a life, we have to save money and take care of ourselves.He really loves his regiment, looking at the smoky little soldiers, his heart and eyes are full of emotion.This is his capital, he will step on the shoulders of the little soldiers and go up, until he reaches a sky-high height.

In the afternoon, Huo Xiangzhen really came.

Gu Chengxi saw him and his horse from a distance.The sorrel fur of the Arabian horse reflected the sun like satin, and it ran like a golden cloud.When he was about to reach Gu Chengxi, he flicked the rein to rein in the horse.Lowering his eyes condescendingly, he and his Arabian horse fluttered their long eyelashes.The corner of his mouth suddenly turned up, and he smiled slightly in the salute and greetings of Gu Chengxi and Sun Wenxiong.

Then he looked up at the remnant camp that looked like a Shura field, and said, "With my brigade, Lian Yi's division was repelled. That's fine, not bad!"

There was still half a sentence, which he didn't say in his heart—"Even if Mr. An came, it would be nothing more than that."

Victory on the battlefield brought him supreme joy, and even reminded him of words like "Jiangshan" and "Tianxia".Although he has no clear ambitions and goals yet, he always feels that those words should have something to do with himself.Looking away in the warm wind, he suddenly thought of his father and Lingji.An old man and a little girl have reached a consensus on him, and they all hope that he will achieve immortality. Even if he cannot be immortal, at least he must become a hero for a lifetime.He has lived with great ambition for nearly 30 years, but he has always been guilty because of internal worries and external difficulties. Not only did he fail to open up territories, he even failed to keep the family business left by Lao Tzu. ——Until the last time he shot Wan Guoqiang away, this time he chased Lian Yi into Shanxi.

Huo Xiangzhen stared at the undulating mountain shadow in the distance for a long time, there was no one in his heart, only things, and the mighty wind howling past.Two victories are enough to prove that he is not Zhao Kuo.How elated, how elated, and yet, with whom?

Looking back at the two regiment leaders under the horse, he said, "Stop chasing, rest for a day, and go home tomorrow! Don't relax at night, beware that Lian Yi will kill us!"

He scowled as he said this.Seeing that Gu Chengxi and Sun Wenxiong were worried, they didn't know whether he was happy or not.

Gu Chengxi was busy restraining the army, spinning like a top all afternoon.When he finally had some free time, he began to inquire about the whereabouts of the commander-in-chief.Finally, on a deserted meadow, he saw Huo Xiangzhen.

The guards were scattered far and wide, and Huo Xiangzhen was only accompanied by the chestnut horse.Huo Xiangzhen sat on a big rock, holding the whip loosely with both hands.The chestnut horse lowered its head, gnawing on the green grass on the ground.The nearby grassland is still green, and the farther you look, the redder it becomes. The boundless redness reaches the horizon, the redness rises to the mountains, and it burns into one with the sunset.

Gu Chengxi has little knowledge and is full of vernacular, but he knows beauty and ugliness very well.The current scene, in his eyes, is beautiful.So he didn't hurry to go there, but just looked carefully and touched the scenery inch by inch.He didn't take a step forward until the black shadow on the grass was imprinted in his heart.

Walking gently to Huo Xiangzhen's side, he squatted down without saying a word, and looked up at Huo Xiangzhen's face.His face was still stern, as if he was dissatisfied after winning a battle.The complexion is not good, but under the dark eyebrows, a pair of eyes are reflecting the clouds.

"Marshal..." He whispered, "Do you have something on your mind?"

Huo Xiangzhen was deaf and speechless.He has things on his mind, but he doesn't need an audience.His mind was full of disorganized poems, all of which he and Lingji had read together: "Painting the horns to mourn the sea and the moon, conquering the clothes to roll the sky and frost. Slashing Loulan with a blade, bending a bow to shoot the virtuous king..."

Gu Chengxi didn't get an answer, so he sat cross-legged beside him.He reached out and pulled out the whip from Huo Xiangzhen's hand, and then he grabbed the other's hand.

Huo Xiangzhen finally spoke in a low voice: "Lian Yi has been hurt this time."

Gu Chengxi knew that he couldn't say anything poetic, but he didn't expect that it was Lian Yi who spoke.

Huo Xiangzhen said again: "It's time to go home, go home and see Mani."

Gu Chengxi smiled, and pinched his fingers one by one: "Marshal, which of us has bigger hands?"

Huo Xiangzhen lowered her head and turned to him, and slapped him seriously: "Same."

Gu Chengxi suddenly closed his fingers, and intertwined with him.Huo Xiangzhen immediately looked up at him: "What are you doing?"

Gu Chengxi lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, and smiled happily: "Marshal, I feel bad."

Huo Xiangzhen raised his eyebrows: "Uncomfortable? Ill?"

Gu Chengxi shook his head solemnly: "It's not that I'm sick, it's that my skin is itchy all over, and I want to be beaten with a military stick."

Huo Xiangzhen was startled for a moment, and then asked back: "I don't have a military stick, do you want a horsewhip?"

Without waiting for Gu Chengxi's answer, he waved his hand and gave a resounding whip, which hit Gu Chengxi's face.The burning pain stimulated Gu Chengxi, he raised his hand to cover his face and hid to the side, he asked with a smile: "Marshal, are you really hitting me?"

Huo Xiangzhen stood up: "You think I'm reluctant?"

Gu Chengxi saw that he was going to get on the horse, so he jumped up quickly and took the rein one step ahead of him: "Marshal, don't go, just sit down for a while!"

Huo Xiangzhen carried the whip behind her back with one hand, and patted the horse's back with the other hand: "What's the matter? You want to pester me again?"

Gu Chengxi smiled, with a low smile: "Don't dare, I just want to stay with you for a while."

Huo Xiangzhen also grabbed the reins: "No need. Let go!"

Gu Chengxi looked him in the eyes, pitifully shameless: "Marshal, please..."

Huo Xiangzhen grabbed his wrist and pulled his hand away forcefully.Immediately afterwards, he grabbed the front of his collar, and Huo Xiangzhen threw him on his back with a flick of strength.And Gu Chengxi rolled up on the spot, and rushed towards him with grass clippings all over his body, just in a posture to fight back.Huo Xiangzhen threw away the whip, went forward to meet him, bent over and hugged his waist, and at the same time tripped him, tripping him back to the ground.Picking up the whip and standing up straight, Huo Xiangzhen turned around and walked to the horse.Suddenly turned around and kicked again, he just hit Gu Chengxi who was trying to sneak attack.

Gu Chengxi clutched his stomach, feeling pain, laughing, and surprise: "It's weird, I'm not smaller than you, I don't eat less than you, why did I move my hands, and I can't take advantage of it at all?"

Huo Xiangzhen smiled at the Arabian horse: "Ask Yuan Man!"

Holding the rein with one hand, he raised his legs and wanted to get on the horse, but at the moment when the boots recognized the stirrups, there was a sudden wind in the back of his head, and then his shoulders sank, and it was Gu Chengxi who jumped onto his back like a monkey.Holding down his two long legs wrapped around her waist, Huo Xiangzhen leaped back without thinking, making Gu Chengxi's spine touch the ground again.Gu Chengxi was thrown and crushed again, and almost died instantly.And Huo Xiangzhen used him as a cushion, lying on his back and looking up at the sky, he asked, "Head Gu, how do you feel?"

Gu Chengxi was in pain and panting, he raised his head and was about to answer, but when he looked forward, he suddenly found that Huo Xiangzhen's head was resting on his chest.Staring straight at the top of the opponent's head, he looked carefully at each hair: "I feel... the handsome is really nice."

Huo Xiangzhen laughed, then pressed his thigh and got up: "This should be heard by the Secretary-General and Mani. They both seem to have a problem with me, and none of them praised me."

After saying this, he turned around and stretched out his hand to Gu Chengxi: "Get up and follow me back to the camp."

Gu Chengxi stared at his hand in a daze for a moment, then raised his hand and grabbed it—after grabbing it, he refused to let go.

So Huo Xiangzhen led the horse with one hand and him with the other, and walked towards the barracks on the uneven weeds.

At the gate of the camp, they met Ma Congrong.

Ma Congrong saw Huo Xiangzhen's one-handed posture, and couldn't help feeling amused: "Master, why did you hold two at once?"

Huo Xiangzhen was recalling the present and thinking about the past in the wilderness, and inexplicably practiced a few moves with Gu Chengxi, but instead practiced his joy: "My horse ran a long distance this morning, so I led it for a walk, let it Rest and rest; my regiment leader was beaten up by me just now, so I also led him away, fearing that he would run away in a fit of anger."

Ma Congrong saw the welt marks on Gu Chengxi's face and the grass clippings all over his body, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Did you make the head of the regiment as the deputy head?"

Huo Xiangzhen let go of his hands, letting the horse and the people go free: "The head of the regiment will fall down as soon as he hits it. It's not as good as the deputy chief."

Ma Congrong stretched out his hand towards the gate of the camp, made a gesture of "please", and at the same time glanced at Gu Chengxi, thinking that this kid is really a fool.

After one night, nothing happened.Lian Yi did indeed flee westward without a trace.Huo Xiangzhen brought the whole brigade back to the court, and dragged the scrapped armored train back along the rails.

When he returned home this afternoon, the first thing he did when he entered the door was naturally to go upstairs to see Bai Mani.As soon as Gu Chengxi went to war, Bai Mani became a loner again, and could only live by a few magazines and pictorials.Suddenly seeing Huo Xiangzhen came back, he was both surprised and happy—joy is real joy, surprise is also real shock, and he even felt like his heart was beating like a drum: "Brother!"

Huo Xiangzhen sat on the sofa chair beside the bed, leaned forward slightly and looked at him with a smile: "When I left, I said I would be back in a week, but it was postponed for an unknown number of weeks. Brother broke his promise."

Bai Mani put the magazine in his hand aside: "It's a war..."

Huo Xiangzhen asked softly like a child, "You also know that there is a war outside?"

Bai Mani subconsciously avoided his gaze: "When Xiao Gu was leaving... he said..."

Huo Xiangzhen looked at Bai Mani with a smile, looked at his small face, small chin, and small ears.At the end, he got up and sat on the edge of the bed, and put his left foot on his lap: "Did your leg hurt for a while?"

Bai Mani lowered his head and replied, "It hurts so much that I don't even know it hurts."

Through the foreign gauze socks, Huo Xiangzhen opened his slightly curled toes one by one: "When the weather gets hotter, I'll take you to live in Beidaihe for a few days."

Bai Mani glanced at him with shame and shame: "I won't go. I went there once the year before last, but you ignored me when I got there, and made me peel off a layer of skin by myself."

Huo Xiangzhen recalled the past, and also felt sorry for him: "Don't worry, I will definitely not bring business with me this time."

Bai Mani thought about it for a while, and felt that going to Beidaihe would be a good idea. Of course, the elder brother's words cannot be trusted. There are always many dignitaries who go to Beidaihe in summer. ?It would be great if Xiao Gu could accompany him. It happened that Xiao Gu hadn't been to Beidaihe yet, so he would be happy to open his eyes.But hesitantly glanced at Huo Xiangzhen again, because he was guilty, he didn't dare to say this.

Huo Xiangzhen was silent for a moment, as if after a lot of deliberation, he spoke to Bai Mani very cautiously: "Little brother, I won a big victory outside."

Bai Mani said: "Brother, don't go to the battlefield yourself in the future, it's dangerous."

Huo Xiangzhen smiled disapprovingly, hearing that his mouth was full of childish talk.

Bai Mani hesitated and changed the subject: "Is Xiao Gu playing well?"

Huo Xiangzhen was a little disappointed, because Bai Mani only knew how to miss his little companion, and didn't ask how brilliant his victory was: "Okay, he's not good, can I cultivate him like this? Love to play, I heard that when I'm not at home, he takes you out every day?"

Bai Mani lowered his head and wiped the wrinkles on his trousers: "Yes."

Huo Xiangzhen suddenly asked again: "Little brother, do you think Gu Chengxi is strange?"

Bai Mani's heart trembled immediately, and then he thought about the elder brother's question.Apart from the fact that Gu Chengxi especially likes men, in other respects, he seems to be similar to ordinary bright and lively young people.Slowly smoothing out the creases on the trousers, he answered, "No wonder, he's quite interesting."

Huo Xiangzhen nodded - he was always afraid that Gu Chengxi would grow up to become Lian Yi, who would flirt with everyone he saw all over the world.He doesn't care about teasing others, but it's not okay to tease the younger brother.Fortunately, according to his observations, Gu Chengxi still treats others with integrity, and has no tendency to become a monster.
