Chapter 411: Anger
Kang Dezhu drove the car to the threshing floor and saw a man standing on the edge of the threshing floor smoking a cigarette from a distance.
Although the light was dim, the two still recognized it at a glance, and that person was the God of Wealth Xiang Facai, who had not seen him for several years.
Seeing a car driving in, the God of Wealth raised his eyes and saw them get out of the car, and immediately recognized them.
He threw away the cigarette he had just lit and strode up to meet it.
came to Sheng Kai and Kang Dezhu, saluted a standard military salute, and shouted excitedly: "Tiger Shuai." ”
Sheng Kai returned a military salute and then said, "Now that I have left the army, I don't need to salute like this in the future." You can call me big brother just like Kang Dezhu. ”
"Yes, big brother. ”
The God of Wealth respectfully agreed, and in a short period of time, he still couldn't change this deep-rooted habit.
Then he stretched out his hand to shake Kang Dezhu's hand and shouted, "General Kang." ”
Kang Dezhu stretched out his hand, hugged him, and said, "Brother." ”
The God of Wealth is also more than 1.85 meters tall and has a relatively strong body, at least 130 kilograms or more.
The two big guys hugged each other, and this picture is really a bit incongruous.
Sheng Kai said, "Foundry, let's go and worship the Black Eagle first. ”
Only then did Kang Dezhu let go, nodded and said, "Yes...... ...... to the
actually reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and walked towards the mourning hall with Sheng Kai.
In the mourning hall, several old people sat there, and two other girls and a young man knelt in front of the spiritual throne wearing filial piety clothes.
Behind the spirit card, there is an urn.
Sheng Hua and Kang Dezhu came to the spiritual seat, knelt down slowly, and kowtowed three times.
The faces of the two were very solemn, and after kowtowing, the three of them also kowtowed in return.
Sheng Kai said: "Brother, I haven't seen each other in the barracks for more than 2 years, I never thought about it, but we will see each other again, but we will be separated by yin and yang." Brother go with peace of mind, your family, we will definitely take care of ......"
Kang Dezhu also said: "Black Eagle, with me and my eldest brother, and the God of Wealth, your family is our family, and we will definitely take care of them......"
The two got up, and an old man stepped forward and asked, "...... you guys Also a comrade-in-arms of Eagle Hua?"
Sheng Kai nodded and said, "Yes, we used to work together in the same army for eight years......
"Alas......"
The old man let out a long sigh, shook his head lightly, and said, "Didn't you fight a big battle two years ago, saying that there would be no more war......s in the empire?" Why did you sacrifice it?"
Such a question, Bloom could not explain clearly to them. He said in a deep voice: "Yinghua died fighting for the country, and he will not die in vain. ”
Then he turned to look at the three young men and asked, "You are Yinghua's younger brothers and sisters, right?"
One of the girls, who was about twenty-three or four, said: "I am his eldest sister Ying Sunflower, my younger brother is called Ying Ye, and my younger sister is called Ying Lotus." ”
Sheng Kai nodded and said, "We are all your brother's comrades-in-arms, my name is Sheng Kai, and this one's name is Kang Dezhu." Knowing that your brother was coming home today, he rushed over from Hancheng overnight. ”
"Thank you for ......"
The three of them bowed down again, and the gratitude in their hearts was sincere.
Sheng Kai, Kang Dezhu and the God of Wealth left the spirit shed, leaving more than ten meters, and Sheng Kai asked in a low voice: "God of Wealth, tell me what's going on?"
The God of Wealth sighed lightly, a trace of anger and hatred flashed in his eyes, and said, "Big brother, since you and General Kang left the barracks, Hua Liubin has made a big adjustment to our old brothers. Black Hawk was transferred to the reconnaissance battalion and was put in charge of front-line vigilance. I ......"
At this, the corners of his mouth twitched.
In the past, the God of Wealth was in charge of the finances of the barracks in the barracks, a general in wartime, and the head of the barracks in his spare time.
Seeing his hesitation, Sheng Kai said in a deep voice: "Say, what's wrong with you?"
"Hua Liubin knew about my relationship with my eldest brother, so he transferred me to the pig farm in the logistics department......"
Kang Dezhu was surprised: "He actually asked you to raise pigs?"
The God of Wealth nodded and said: "He just wants to control the real power, all the people who were valued by the eldest brother before have been taken down, I am still good, I am a pig farm director......
Sheng Bloom's face was a little gloomy and frightening, and he didn't say a word, but it made people feel a compelling aura.
"How did Black Hawk die?"
He asked again.
"In the First World War two years ago, Beiyi surrendered and has withdrawn, but there are some radical organizations in Beiyi that have been unwilling to fail. They organized guerrilla detachments of their own initiative and hired international mercenaries to strengthen them. Whenever the opportunity arises, they will harass us at the border. Black Hawk has been on the front line, and the other night, an outpost was attacked by Beiyi guerrillas. Black Hawk led the team to support, but was ambushed. Some of those who ambushed were mercenary squads hired by the guerrillas at a high price, the captain was called Free, and the nickname was Rattlesnake. His squad is the world-famous King Cobra Commando. Black Hawk led his team in a bloody battle, and finally was shot while protecting the evacuation of several recruits......"
Several days have passed, but the God of Wealth is still very excited and sad when he talks about it.
Sheng Kai listened calmly, his eyes flashing with a cold light, looking at the deep night in the distance, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Where is that guerrilla station?"
After a long time, he asked in a deep voice.
"They were stationed in a small town called Larnaca on the border of Beiyi, which had been under their control, and the Beiyi army had tried several times to clear it, but to no avail. ”
The God of Wealth replied.
"Larnaca...... ...... Larnaca"
Sheng Blossom muttered, he was very familiar with the place, it was originally a small town with a population of more than 50,000, but due to the war, almost all the people in the town ran away, and it became a deserted town.
Back then, he led his army to capture that town, but unexpectedly, this town has now become a cancer against the border of the Empire.
Kang Dezhu also followed his gaze to the distant night, although he didn't speak, he seemed to have understood in his heart what Sheng Hua was thinking at this time.
At this moment, I saw more than a dozen cars slowly driving over on the driveway leading to the village.
Sheng Kai and Kang Dezhu looked at the dozen or so cars and glanced at each other suspiciously.
"Did you notify anyone else?"
Sheng Kai looked at the God of Wealth and asked.
The God of Wealth nodded and said, "These are all soldiers under Black Hawk, and they have already left the army because they can't bear the exclusion of Hua Liubin. Knowing that their original commander had died in battle, they came to offer their condolences. ”
There were not so many cars parked in the barn field, and all the cars stopped slowly close to the side of the road, and with the sound of the door, dozens of people got out of the car.
The movement outside alarmed the people in the spirit shed, and several old men walked out, looking at the dozens of people in surprise, lining up on the road.
Someone shouted a slogan, and the team quickly got in order, and then walked in unison towards the barnyard.
The steps are neat, and the "click" sound is not messy at all.
The procession drove to the front of the mourning hall, and the people shouting slogans shouted: "Queue, listen to my orders, bow down......"
Sheng Blossom, Kang Dezhu, and the God of Wealth stood not far away, and after seeing them bow three times, they observed a three-minute silence before they went to help the three brothers and sisters of the Eagle family up.
An old man wept bitterly and shouted: "Yinghua, look at it, you have so many brothers to see you off, you are the pride of our village......"
Then he turned to the other old men and said, "Go, go door-to-door to inform everyone, ask everyone to move stools and send them, and let Yinghua's comrades-in-arms sit ......."
Eagle Sunflower also said: "I'll go and fetch my mother ......"
Their mother, grief-stricken, was sent back to her home, where she was watched by several elderly women in the village.
Seeing so many people suddenly coming, she felt that her parents should also be there.
Suddenly, the whole village came alive.
Although it was a very bad feeling to be woken up in my sleep, I heard that Yinghua's comrades-in-arms were coming, and they rushed to the barn with chairs.
At this time, the sky is close to dawn, and in the hazy morning light, the figure is faintly visible.
In the morning and afternoon of the same day, people came one after another. These people were all old subordinates of Sheng Kai, but after the war, Sheng Hua left the army, and they were ostracized and returned home.
Hearing the news of Yinghua's death, he consciously came to attend the memorial service and funeral.
By the time of the evening memorial service, nearly 300 people came.
Because of their arrival, the memorial service is solemn and grand.
In the drizzle, the funeral of Yinghua was completed, and the old subordinates were evacuated in an orderly manner, while he went to Yinghua's parents' house with the God of Wealth and Kang Dezhu.
The village is not large, with only about 30 families in total.
The house of Yinghua's parents is on a small hillside, the house is dilapidated, and the wooden house of I don't know what age it is, it looks like it is crumbling.
Before going to their house, Sheng Kai asked the God of Wealth: "Yinghua died in the line of duty, how much pension did the army give?"
The God of Wealth gritted his teeth and said: "Originally, according to the regulations, there should indeed be hundreds of thousands of pensions. But Hua Liubin characterized Black Hawk as violating the rules and fighting without authorization, but because Black Hawk was killed, he was not held accountable, and at the same time, the due pension was cancelled......"
Kang Dezhu said hatefully: "This dog, the mother's ......"
Sheng Kai waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "The brothers are all burdened by me, and everything Hua Liubin has done is aimed at me. Sooner or later, I will ask him for this justice. ”
The three of them came to the dilapidated wooden house, and their hearts were full of emotion.
Black Hawk fought the enemy on the front line, but his family struggled to survive, and in the end he did not even get a pension.
When Sheng Kai saw this wooden house, she couldn't help but think of her home in Daliu Village, how similar was it?
Seeing Sheng Hua and the other three coming to their home, Ying Ye and Ying Lotus were a little afraid and didn't dare to come out to meet people.
Eagle Sunflower hurriedly wiped two wooden stools with her sleeves on the two wooden stools that were unknown how many years old, invited them to sit down, and then shouted, "Ying Ye, go and boil water for the guests to make tea." ”
The two siblings turned around at the same time and went to the kitchen to boil water.
Eagle Sunflower is twenty-three or four years old, and it is the time when it is in its prime. But she was dressed very modestly, without a single piece of jewelry, and even her hair was tied with a red head rope, and her long hair was draped behind her shoulders.
Although she is delicate, her face is a little pale, I don't know if it is because she has been too sad in the past few days, and she has not rested well, but it is like this.
Sheng Kai and the others sat down, and Yinghua's mother Min Xiu walked out of the back room, her messy gray hair, and her eyes that were still red and swollen and distracted, making people look a little desolate.
"The guests are here, and there are guests in the past two days, or ...... to be there."
Speaking of this, sadness came from the heart, and I couldn't help but choke again.
Sheng Kai said: "Aunt Day, we are all Yinghua's comrades-in-arms before his death, and it is natural for us to come to his funeral. ”
"Pity my Hua'er...... He was the hope of our family, but I didn't expect it...... Now the family, the old and the young, his father still has that kind of illness and needs to be taken care of...... The family is pointing to the big girl now, what can I do in the future......"
Her grief is not only about the death of Yinghua, but also about what the family will do in the future.
