"That's ...... Is it there? ”

Pan Meifeng sat dizzy on the train, feeling that the train had finally stopped, standing up with the carriage propped up, and there was a void under her feet, almost not falling. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Not yet!" Zhou Xiaoshan hurriedly grabbed her arm: "Be careful." ”

"How long did we get on the train? It felt like I'd been on the road for tens of thousands of miles, like I'd been on another planet. You say this is not a military division, do we still have to continue to take the train? Pan Meifeng was confused, looked over the platform outside, and looked at the mountains that were still layered in the distance, looking a little afraid.

This strange place in front of her was too different from what she imagined when she came.

She was mentally prepared to go to a poor mountainous area. But after actually getting on the car, I gradually moved away from Hong Kong, and I saw all old buildings, pedestrians wearing the same style and unable to distinguish between men and women. There were very few cars along the railway, and occasionally one or two were seen, which were also dilapidated trucks carrying supplies.

Poor, as far as the eye can see, just this one impression.

Looking at it, the mainland gave her the feeling of being as poor as she guessed Africa.

This is still in the relatively prosperous Guangzhou, since the train arrived in Zhaoqing, it has entered the mountainous area. All you can see are low-rise wooden and tiled houses, and even thatched houses that can only be found in books, and they are not elegant antique buildings, but crooked and dilapidated houses that are about to collapse. The thatch on the roof had not been replaced for a long time, and the color was dark, as if it was about to rot.

The farmers who worked on the slopes of the mountains were dressed in tatters and covered with patches. The farmer's face looked tired, and there was no pride in the so-called battle for heaven and earth that she had imagined.

Her passion was fading.

The fear of the unfamiliar environment, the huge gap between imagination and reality, made her regret participating in this distant journey. If it weren't for the familiar Zhou Xiaoshan by her side, Guan Fei and the others were also next door, and everyone often chatted in the aisle to relieve her boredom, so that she could relieve her inner irritability. She was worried that she would really be tempted to suddenly jump off the train, even if it was walking, and she would have to rush back to Hong Kong immediately.

The train is slow, rickety all the way, and there are too many stations along the way to count, often stopping to pick up and drop off passengers. Each time I stopped, I stopped for a quarter of an hour, and I stopped for more than half an hour. The next night, in order to avoid a train, it also drove to the diversion lane, and waited for more than two hours before returning to the original route and getting on the road again.

When I arrived in Kunming, I waited in the waiting room for more than two hours and then changed to another train.

A total of 1,800 kilometers of road can be reached in a day and a half. But they changed cars back and forth, and walked on the road for three days and four nights, and all their energy was wasted.

She really didn't have the strength to continue tossing on the road.

For Zhou Xiaoshan and the others, they were in a different state with an eager and excited face, and she had no expectations for the military division.

This is still on the mainland, they are all so poor, and the military divisions that rely on domestic support will only be worse, right?

My brain is really funny, how could I be stupid enough to believe Zhou Xiaoshan's words, stupidly get on the train, run thousands of miles away, and go to see where he once fought and lived.

It was the stupidest decision I've ever made!

Pan Meifeng had no strength, her brain was still in a state of confusion, she didn't lift a piece of luggage in her hand, her body was still leaning on Zhou Xiaoshan, and she was carefully carried by him and walked off the train.

"Lao Guan!"

"Shengguo! You kid scared me, why did you run to Chuxiong! ”

As soon as her feet landed on the platform floor, she suddenly saw a dark-skinned man pounce on her, startling Pan Meifeng. Before she could scream, she heard Guan Fei screaming, took a few steps forward, hugged each other tightly, and both of them slapped each other's backs hard, so excited.

It turned out that this was the political commissar in their mouths, who seemed to be named Zhang Shengguo.

"If I hadn't picked you up, who would have run so far, and there was still a lot of work to be dealt with at home!" The man named Zhang Shengguo was dark, thin and tall, with a smile on his face, and waved his big hand at the back, "What are you doing in a daze, come and help the commander move their things!" ”

"Howler!"

With a shout, dozens of sturdy men in strange costumes and with inch hair rushed up, snatching the luggage from each person's hands, or carrying or carrying it, and in less than a few minutes, it was all loaded onto several iron frame cars.

Down-to-earth, Pan Meifeng's strength recovered a little, and she was startled by their resolute actions, and her confused brain suddenly sobered up. She looked back and forth at the fancy dresses they were wearing, and was amazed.

These people are all dressed in the same style, and at first glance you know that they are uniform uniforms. The surface of her clothes and pants is green and black, and she can still recognize it with her little military knowledge, which is called camouflage.

In addition to seeing the camouflage uniforms worn by European and American armies on TV and movies, it was the first time she saw camouflage uniforms on domestic troops.

Different from the fat green uniforms of the mainland People's Liberation Army in memory, the camouflage uniforms worn by these people are much closer, with cuffs, waists, trousers and restraints. This outfit set off their stormy actions, and immediately after they moved, they lined up the whole team according to their height, and their neat manners were uniform, although they did not have a collar badge and cockade, but they looked particularly strong.

Speaking of trouser tightness, she looked down and was surprised to find that these soldiers were not wearing army green rubber shoes, but thick tall cowhide boots!

So stylish!

At this time, she suddenly found that Li Qing and other guards who were following Guan Fei also changed into the same style of clothing at some point.

This is their military uniform!

She quickly understood, leaned into Zhou Xiaoshan's ear, and asked in a low voice, "These are your people, right?" All military? ”

"Yes! These are definitely fighters of the guard squad! Zhou Xiaoshan stared at these soldiers excitedly, and several guys who stood at the head of the team and winked at him were none other than their former comrades-in-arms Qian Qun and Shu Cheng, who were in the guard class. Although the others are all new faces, they are also newly recruited guards and soldiers.

The other party lined up neatly, and he and several other former guard soldiers who had returned from Hong Kong wanted to catch up with their comrades-in-arms, but they were afraid of violating the discipline of the troops, so they could only forcibly press the excitement in their hearts, and they were so excited that their palms were sweating.

"Your commander is so generous, and the clothes and shoes issued to them are quite well-made, and they look so handsome. However, this is not cheap, and it costs two or three thousand to buy it in Hong Kong! Pan Meifeng regained her vitality and whispered with bright eyes.

"That is, in dollars, it will be hundreds of dollars. It's a pity that I've been in Hong Kong without mine. This military uniform is really spirited, and it looks much better than the British army's clicker uniform. When I get back, I'll pick up a set right away! Zhou Xiaoshan stared at his comrades enviously, wishing that he could immediately grow wings and fly back, and also get a set to wear.

The other returning former guard squad soldiers also had envious faces, and their burning eyes made the other party even more chin raised, extremely proud.

"You're not from the guard squad now, are you?" Pan Meifeng was eager to try, and she wanted to see Zhou Xiaoshan wearing this handsome military uniform immediately, but she was worried that she would not have his share.

"It's not just the guard class, the whole army is this new uniform!" Zhou Xiaoshan said proudly, and then pushed her, "Don't be stunned, let's go!" ”

"Oh!"

Pan Meifeng reacted at this time, followed Zhou Xiaoshan, and a group of dozens of people left the platform.

It may be the first time for the locals to see the clothes of these soldiers, and the passengers who got on and off the bus gathered curiously, standing not far away and pointing and watching.

Compared with the large number of imitation green military uniforms among ordinary travelers, as well as the uniforms that are either blue or gray, the military uniforms of the People's Army are more imposing in the crowd. The young people were hot-blooded and impulsive, and under the crowd of onlookers, the guards and soldiers were even more excited, and they stomped their feet harder when they walked. The cow tendon bottom high combat boots stepped on the concrete floor, making a neat step, and dozens of people actually walked out of the rhythm of the march of the large army.

"These guys! I said why they had to change their boots every six months, and I thought it was because of their usual training efforts. It turned out that he was busy showing off in front of people all day long, grinding! Zhang Shengguo was talking to Guan Fei warmly, and was startled by the louder and louder neat footsteps behind him, looked back, couldn't cry or laugh, and then straightened his face and shouted, "What are you doing?" You are too energetic and have no place to play, don't you, if you walk in unison like this, it will alarm the ordinary people, so just walk back on foot for me! ”

After being trained by him, the guard soldiers were slumped, and no longer pursued a unified pace, but walked in a hurry.

However, the scene caused by the crowd still attracted many tourists to follow all the way. There was a lot of discussion about their camouflage uniforms, and the crowd gathered but did not disperse, but there was a tendency to increase the number of them.

This is because they did not wear a collar badge and a cockade, otherwise the sensation would have been even greater.

The situation here attracted the attention of the station, and several police officers from the station police station in blue public security uniforms ran over, and when they saw this scene, they immediately understood. They also belonged to the scope of insiders, but because they didn't know much about secrecy, they thought it was a special force, so they immediately maintained order, separated the crowd, escorted them all the way out of the station, and boarded the vehicle waiting outside.

Pan Meifeng sat down on the bus and breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't expect the people in China to be so curious, and the scene of being surrounded by hundreds of people made her feel very nervous, and she always kept her head down, not daring to face it.

"This bus is good, and it's not bad compared to Hong Kong! I kind of know where you're spending all the money you're earning. Once she was seated, she looked around the car, stretched out in satisfaction, and then came to her senses and quickly closed the curtains.

Zhou Xiaoshan sat down next to her sneakily, his clothes bulging, turned sideways to block the view of others, and proudly took out a set of military uniforms from his clothes.

"Wow!" When Pan Meifeng saw it, her eyes immediately lit up, and she screamed that she was about to reach out and grab it.

"Shhhh Don't scream! This is what Li Qing asked them for just now, and secretly stuffed it to me while people were not paying attention, don't invite the wolf. Zhou Xiaoshan hurriedly put his finger to his lips and asked her not to alarm others.

"What attracted the wolf ......, I'll go, Zhou Xiaoshan, you kid is not authentic! When did you steal a new set of military uniforms and sneak around to keep us from seeing them! Say, where did it come from? Fang Xiao, who was sitting in the back, faintly heard a sound, looked at it suspiciously, and immediately screamed frantically, making Zhou Xiaoshan's attempt to quietly change into a new military uniform completely bankrupt.

In Pan Meifeng's giggles, there was an instant commotion in the bus, and people from the front and back rushed up, trying to snatch the military uniform from him. The new military uniform that Zhou Xiaoshan tried his best to hide was snatched away in an instant, leaving him to collapse in his seat without tears and muttering to himself.
