Drift [Gone with the Wind Drift Doujin BL]

The dance was canceled because of the war.But no one felt discouraged, and everyone was intoxicated with enthusiasm, thinking that in a month, the war would be over.

When returning, Ellen was sitting in the carriage, looking out the window, looking at Scott, his smooth black hair on both sides of his cheeks, drifting behind his head like a cloud, his big dark green eyes opened even wider, The expression on the face was very light, as if it could be wiped off with a stretch of hand, but the expression of determination and determination and unyielding appeared on the pursed lips.Ellen suddenly had an unknown premonition, whether it was auspicious or ominous, because her son's expression reminded her of her 15-year-old self.

That year, her beloved cousin died, and Ellen made up her mind to leave Savannah and follow a short Irish man who had no family background and was even somewhat rude to Georgia, which was almost another world.Everything about her was buried with her own hands.

Ever since she buried her girlhood with her own hands, Ellen has never expected to be happy.She just sincerely and sincerely prayed for her children, hoping that they would be happy.

Now that the eldest daughter seems to have found a suitable husband-in-law, all that is left is to watch and wait.But the second son... Ellen didn't know which girl in the three or four counties around, or even Savannah and Charleston, where there were many famous families, could be worthy of him.Fortunately, Scott is only 14 years old, and the lifelong event of marriage is not in a hurry for the time being.

14 years old.Ellen's dark eyes suddenly filled with tears.

The sound of wheels grinding on the ground was intertwined with the sound of horses' hooves.Ellen touched the ring in the sheepskin glove, and sighed softly: "Scott has grown into a real man... Are you really back, dear? I just got home yesterday afternoon, and I haven't had time to speak yet... It always feels like a dream..." Scarlett pursed her lips and complained, "Yes, Mom, Scott hasn't come back for four years, he's a scoundrel! If my brother hadn't asked someone to bring back letters sometimes, I would have thought He fell into the sea to feed the fish!" As soon as she finished speaking, Scarlett immediately covered her mouth, because her superstitious Irish blood made her flustered, because she accidentally uttered an unlucky word.Scarlett immediately crossed herself.

Scott did what he could to the Confederacy.

He knew that the agricultural south was bound to be completely defeated by the industrial north, and that any effort would be a meaningless struggle, and any action would be powerless.Everything Scott did was not for the Confederacy, but for his friends.

The most important contribution Scott made was to provide enough guns and ammunition, especially sufficient bullets-dum bullets, to the cavalry companies and militia regiments in the county and Atlanta.

Dum bullets are 7.7mm bullets with the tip armor removed and the lead core exposed. Commonly known as "flowering bullets", "shrapnel bullets" and "in-body deformation bullets", it is a kind of bullet that does not have penetrating power but has extremely high shallow Layer lethal "expansion" bullet.

This is a bullet that appeared in 1897, but Scott was born in a special soldier and has researched on various guns and ammunition.Dum ammunition is a weapon banned by international law in 1899. After being shot into the human body, the lead core will be exposed because the tip of the bullet is not covered. serious injury.

100 meters away from a direct hit by Dum bullets, 100% of the head will die, 20% of the limbs will die, and all the rest will be amputated. 100% of the left chest (near the heart) will die, 70% of the right chest will die, and 70% of the abdomen will die. die.The warhead is severely deformed or even ruptured, resulting in trumpet-shaped or gourd-shaped cavities in human tissues. The wound area is hundreds of times the cross-sectional area of ​​the projectile, and when it is hit, a cavity more than ten times the caliber or even larger will appear instantaneously.What makes the wounded even more painful is that if the fragments of the projectile remain inside the body, it may cause lead poisoning. Even if there are relatively few fragments left inside the body by chance, the huge broken wound is extremely difficult to heal and is easy to cause infection.

In the era when surgical disinfection was not yet recognized, once it was hit by a dum bomb, it would cause devastating damage.

However, ordinary bullets cannot be transformed into dum bullets, so currently dum bullets do not have the conditions for widespread circulation.

But as long as friends in the county can use it to save lives more easily.

Even if it was a weapon that was later banned by international law, Scott can't control that much now.

Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

Within two weeks, Scarlett became wife, Charles became Scott's brother-in-law, and Scarlett and Melanie became aunts.

In the south, wars are raging and wars are frequent. The whole south is intoxicated with passion. Everyone thinks that fighting will end the war. Young people join the army one after another. Fearing that the end of the war will miss the opportunity, they rush to marry their sweethearts before the road opens.Dozens of pre-war weddings were held in the county, and laughter and bustle filled the entire south.

After joint persuasion by Scott, Melanie and Charles, Scarlett reluctantly agreed to hold the wedding at the Wilkes Manor with the would-be Wilkes couple.

"The newlyweds are going to part soon, why is everyone not sad at all?" Scott At the wedding of Scarlett and Charles, Melanie and Ashley, Scott stood among the guests, casually Ask Rhett who was also invited.

Hundreds of candles lit on the four walls illuminated Rhett's bronze face in half-darkness, and the sounds of kisses, congratulations, and toasts came one after another. Those noises seemed to be a fragile dream, low background music, for a while. , Scott could only hear the sound of blood flowing in the cranial cavity, and even his breathing stopped.

A voice, separated from the background music, broke away from the dream, rang clearly in his ears: "Everyone is so busy, so excited that they have no time to think calmly, and naturally they don't have time to cry. "The deep voice became as soft as silk," If they knew that the relatives and lovers standing in front of them with a smile on their faces might be buried in some god-knows-all trench within a month, they would probably I can't laugh anymore."

Scott also laughed in a low voice: "It's still your usual style, Rhett, annoying and unsightly, but real and sharp."

Rhett's black eyes, which often rolled around, were now fixed on Scott, or more precisely, on Scott's eyes.

Those were a pair of blue, cold, and proud wolf eyes, no matter in color, shape, or even temperament, they were exactly the same.

Scott looked up and found himself in a strange dream.He followed the instructions of reason, socialized with his mouth, smiled on his face, and talked and laughed happily with the guests crowded around him.But Scott felt that his soul had already floated into the air, and together with the candles on the four walls, he watched all this with cold eyes.He watched Scarlett O'Hara emerge as Scarlett Hamilton; he watched Melanie Hamilton emerge as Melanie Wilkes.Scarlett wrapped in a white wedding dress looks like a princess, and Melanie standing beside her is like an angel, like an angel sent by God to protect the princess, almost dazzled Scott, thinking that The Madonna in Raphael's painting came down and stood among them, her ordinary face shrouded in a soft and warm halo.

Scott saw Ellen's slightly bewildered loving face, her lips moving in silent prayers for her daughter's well-being.Scott watched as Gerald gulped down the brandy, flushed and smug.Scott saw Scarlett smiling, and he could see her forced smile, like a child trying not to cry and pretending to be strong, but all the guests thought she was a happy bride.

Scott felt that the soul seemed to refuse to return to the body, because once it did, he would feel unbearable bursts of pain.

A low but powerful voice brought Scott back to his sanity.

"You are such a rose-like child, you even have thorns in your eyes." Rhett's voice came into his ears without warning.

Ridicule, sarcasm, or something else, in a word, let the fugue Scott return to his original appearance.He clearly felt the pain in his heart, which was real and unavoidable.

The dream-like cover in front of him was shattered like a crystal.

In front of the eyes are cheering, noisy, blessing each other, people full of confidence, and hidden in the back, the predictable but unpredictable future.

But seeing the scene in front of him, Scott suddenly calmed down, and there was even a vague, faint smile on his mouth——

Two brides who have become sisters-in-law, wrapped in shiny cream-colored satin and translucent wedding dresses on their heads, stand side by side.Ruffles and lace cover up the too thin and straight lines of Melanie's body, and her unstunning face is radiant and full of vitality.Melanie put her arms around Scarlett's neck, stood on tiptoe, and left a loud kiss on Scarlett's pale cheek, then hugged Scarlett tightly, and said cheerfully: "Honey, now we are real. Sister! Will you come to Atlanta to see me and Aunt Pitty? Oh dear, we're all looking forward to your coming!"

Not knowing whether it was because she was too tired and lacked strength, or something else, Scarlett let Melanie hug her, and only made a sound of one syllable: "Mmm."
