Colonels, colonels, and major generals gathered nearly a hundred. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Qi Rui felt that he was already young and promising, as a person born on January 1, 1862, on September 12, 1891, he would be 30 years old in a little more than three months. When he saw a 26-year-old colonel, Qi Rui felt old.

The young colonel had a scar on his forehead, and Qi Rui could see that if the shrapnel of that shell was slightly offset by one centimeter, the colonel would probably be glorious. To be able to get ahead in this way, there must be courage, perseverance, ability, and luck. Gathering so many outstanding elements in the army, it can be seen that the Military Commission is no longer worried about war.

In the first few days, the soldiers were raised and began to be closed for training, so they immediately complained. Qi Rui's home is in Beijing, and everyone wants to go home as soon as possible, and their emotions are still relatively stable. But there are actually few people in Qi Rui's family in Beijing, and some of the remaining comrades are emotional and want to go home. Of course, there are some guys who don't express their own position, but there are those who say strange things and those who engage in incitement.

A few days later, the Military Commission announced its dissolution and gave these guys half a month's family leave. So everyone dispersed in a hurry, and they left clean that day. Qi Rui also rushed home immediately. The Old Summer Palace is a very beautiful place, but after Qi Rui entered, he felt that something was not right. The layout here is beautiful, and the building is very nice as a play. But the houses that are used to live in people are old-fashioned houses. Qi Rui felt that these houses were like bears with the palace buildings of the Nanjing Museum, looking silly, and the feeling of living in them was the same as his grandfather's old house, cold in winter and hot in summer. There is no way to compare to Daddy Weser and their government compound. Not to mention anything else, just without heating, the quality of life immediately drops a lot.

After entering his own house, Qi Rui found that his imagination had really come true, there was no heating in the house, and he felt a little cold at the end of September.

"Comrade Qi Rui, you wait here, your pass will be issued soon." The head of the guard regiment laughed.

"Thank you!" Qi Rui replied. He finally felt a little proud now, he used to be just the son of his father Wesser. The current Comrade Qi Rui is a major general of the Liberation Army, and it is very likely that he will become a lieutenant general in the near future.

However, when he sat down in the house, Qi Rui immediately discovered that his father Wei Ze's residence in Beijing was very different from Nanjing. The house in Nanjing is for many people, and the three-story building is big enough and there are many rooms. The accommodation in Beijing did not consider this aspect, and the rooms were very small, and Qi Rui immediately found that he actually had no place to live.

Without waiting for the head of the guard regiment to be immediate, Qi Rui hurriedly asked, "Is there an army guest house here?" ”

The head of the guard regiment didn't ask Qi Rui why he didn't live with his parents, he replied cheerfully: "If you want to talk about the guest house, I think ...... You'd better book now. There's been a lot of people coming lately, and if you're late, it's probably gone. ”

"It's fine. It's enough to live now. "There was a word outside the door about Weese.

The head of the guard regiment left very decently, so that the father and son could talk privately after a long absence. Wei Ze asked Qi Rui to sit down, "Your mother went back to the south to see your brother and sister." Wei Li got married and had children, and she was a daughter, but she made your mother very happy. ”

Things have changed so much, Qi Rui only felt a little abrupt. He also felt that the world seemed to be an insect frozen in amber, but from his father's understatement, Qi Rui felt that his relatives were constantly changing. In comparison, on the contrary, Qi Rui, who was running on the battlefield, always stopped moving. These thoughts made Qi Rui can't help but think of Chu Xue again, and after crying once on the boat, Qi Rui felt that his emotions had been evacuated. Reason easily takes back control. Regarding Chu Xue's incident, Qi Rui was like those things on the battlefield that made Qi Rui unbearable, and he froze deeply. But just like the assumptions that Daddy Wei Ze said, the analogous thinking mode of human beings 'rabbits and foxes are sad' makes him easily recall Chu Xue.

It is not only Qi Rui's family who is moving forward, but also the people that Qi Rui cares about. When everyone was changing, Qi Rui seemed to be left far behind, and he could only look at everyone's distant backs.

"There's something I want to ask you. Do you want to continue working in the army in the future? Wei Ze asked indifferently.

Qi Rui didn't think about this question at all, and he couldn't answer it with his mouth stammered. Seeing his son's expression, Wei Ze waved his hand, "You should think about this matter and make a decision yourself." The reason I'm asking you is that I want you to leave the army. But this kind of thing is your own choice, and I am willing to respect your decision. Of course, if you decide that you want to work in the army in the future, then you can be promoted to lieutenant general. If you are willing to leave the army, it is to retire as a major general, and it is impossible to be promoted to lieutenant general. ”

"Why?" Qi Rui was puzzled. Theoretically, it shouldn't be that if you leave the army, you will be given additional promotions, and you can get better treatment when you return to the local area.

Wei Ze replied indifferently: "If you stay in the army, promotion is naturally based on merit." You're no longer in the army, and it's not good for you to be promoted too high. ”

Qi Rui couldn't understand Daddy Wei Ze's thoughts at all, so he picked an answer that he thought was the most ridiculous and said, "Do you want to train me specifically?" ”

Wei Ze glanced at his son, ignoring his son's pretended surprised expression, Wei Ze said calmly, "Yes." I'd like to train you specifically. If you're that material, I don't care if you take over. ”

This answer made Qi Rui's whole person stunned, and he wondered if his ears had heard something wrong. If there is anything that makes Qi Rui feel the most unlikely, it is probably that Daddy Wei Ze regards Qi Rui as his successor. In great confusion, Qi Rui felt that he didn't really want to be his father's successor at all, it was something too far away. But Qi Rui also found that he didn't want to consider the option of staying in the army for a long time. In a dilemma, Qi Rui said: "Father, let me rest for a while." ”

"Okay." Wei Ze agreed to Qi Rui's request without hesitation, and then stood up and left the living room.

Qi Rui was the only one left in the empty living room, and the young major general felt lonely and lonely. Many times when he was on the battlefield, he longed to leave the battlefield and return to ordinary life. However, now that this goal has been achieved, Qi Rui finds that it is far more difficult to return to ordinary life than he imagined.

When I came home after the battle, the house had collapsed, and my wife and children had run away with others. This is a joke that circulates in the military. Qi Rui couldn't understand how anyone could come up with such a boring joke at first. Now he realizes that this boring joke actually fits his current situation very well. Beijing, an unrecognizable residence, is no longer Qi Rui's home, and his relatives ignore Qi Rui's existence and live a life that belongs to them. And the person Qi Rui loves is not only married, but also has someone else's child. In the future, Qi Rui will always be the existence after the fourth place in Chu Xue's heart. And Qi Rui poured countless new blood and dedicated countless battlefields to it, and it was a place where Qi Rui would never want to go back at this time.

Qi Rui, who was about to be thirty years old, suddenly had a feeling of lovelessness, and he found that his life so far was meaningless.

"Here you go. Take it and use it. Wei Ze walked back to the living room and handed Qi Rui a thick envelope.

Qi Rui opened it, and there was a thick stack of banknotes inside, no matter what time it was, Qi Rui felt that his father's actions would never be beyond his imagination. Although he wanted to refuse, Qi Rui remembered that he didn't have much money left. Although he still has a lot of money in his account, it is in North America. If you want to go through the banking system to get the money out, you have to work for at least seven business days. And now Qi Rui needs money for everything he wants to do, and if he doesn't have money, he is afraid that he won't even be able to live in a guest house. So Qi Rui finally said happily: "Thank you!" ”

Wei Ze sat opposite Qi Rui, "Your younger brothers and sisters were going to buy a house and get married at that time, and I gave them 500,000 yuan each." You were at war at the time, and I didn't want to disturb your mind, so I didn't tell you. Now that you're back, you won't have to fight again. I'll give you the 500,000 when you settle down. I'm old, and I don't know how long I'll live, so I'll give you the money first. ”

"Father. Stop it. Qi Rui had a strong negative emotion about this, and he immediately stopped Wei Ze from continuing.

Weeser sighed and didn't continue.

Qi Rui went to the army guest house for a night that night, and before falling asleep late at night, Qi Rui decided to take the money given by his father and go out for a trip first. His life can be said to be thousands of miles long, but every trip is not decided by Qi Rui himself. Where others need Qi Rui to go, Qi Rui will go. Whether it is the hot South China Sea or the island countries of the Indian Ocean, or the icy snowfields, grasslands, wilderness, and mountains.

He once stood on the top of a majestic mountain and looked down on the abyss, and he once watched the fire fall from the sky and set the city on fire. He used to walk on the ground covered with corpses. All of this was a shock when Qi Rui read it from the text, but after experiencing it himself, Qi Rui found that all these things that should have strong emotions were imposed on him by others, and when he looked back at himself, except for the knowledge accumulated from more than 20 years of study and work, Qi Rui himself was empty.

The railway station in Beijing, like the station in Nanjing, is very large, and there are special ticket gates for soldiers. Early in the morning, there was a long queue of people at this ticket gate. Qi Rui wanted to take off his class badge, but he didn't do it in the end. Because it is against military law to do so. So many people's eyes first fell on this tall young soldier with a height of 178, his size and slender and sturdy figure made the military uniform look very good. When some people's eyes fell on Qi Rui's class chapter, they would 100% look at Qi Rui's face carefully. This kind of curious look at rare animals made Qi Rui feel very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the soldiers were disciplined, did not compete in line, and were very simple when they asked to buy tickets. So Qi Rui bought a ticket to Nanjing as quickly as possible. The guard helped Qi Rui carry his luggage to the entrance of the station, and said with concern: "Political Commissar Qi, let's go to Nanjing with you." ”

Qi Rui shook his head, "I'm on vacation and doing some personal things, so I don't need you to follow." You haven't been home for several years, so when you get back, you should report and apply to go home to see it. We all need to go home and see, otherwise we won't feel at ease. ”

These words were Qi Rui's sincere words, and the guards were deeply moved and nodded again and again. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Political Commissar Qi." You brought the money on the road, and you haven't been beaten hard for almost ten years in the blink of an eye. I heard that there are thieves in the area again. ”

"Don't worry." Qi Rui said with some tears and laughter. It stands to reason that it is very dangerous on the battlefield, but Qi Rui has never worried about the people around him. When you return to a peaceful environment, you have to worry about whether the people around you are bad people. It's ironic. Shaking hands with the guards and saying goodbye, Qi Rui dragged his suitcase into the entrance of the station.

There have been many changes in domestic trains, and the original steam locomotive has become a diesel locomotive. North America once hoped to be fully implemented, but the Yankees' train construction was very problematic, and if they wanted to implement it, they had to wait until the war to build the entire railway system. Seeing these carriages with his own eyes, Qi Rui combined the theory on the report at that time with reality. The diesel locomotive towed more than ten cars in the head. In the United States, the head of the steam locomotive generally only tows six cars. The loads on both sides are completely different. If these internal combustion engines of the Republic of China were forced to run on the railroad tracks of the Yankees, it would probably soon be a problem for the railway line.

If it was before, Qi Rui would probably have a feeling of sudden realization, but now Qi Rui is just sad in his heart. If he only understands these techniques in this life, Qi Rui still feels that he is just an empty shell. As long as you have learned and experienced these techniques, anyone can learn these techniques.

There are many, many people whose knowledge and skills are far inferior to Qi Rui, but these people Qi Rui sees have their own lives. Even if it is an unfortunate and uneasy life, they have to face themselves, but Qi Rui doesn't even have a chance to face himself.

The journey was very smooth, and after Qi Rui arrived in Nanjing, he went to the army guest house. As a result, he actually threw himself into the air, and the military guest house turned out to be civilian. When I asked the staff of the new private guest house, they only knew that many units had moved away in large numbers after the relocation of the capital. As for where they moved, they didn't know. Qi Rui could only go to the Nanjing Military Region, but found that there were also people who went to the empty building. When I asked the people around me, it turned out that this place had also been relocated. No one knows where to relocate.

There was no way, Qi Rui had no choice but to go to the military academy. Fortunately, the military academy was still there, and the reception staff who took Qi Rui to the guest house chattered about the decline of the Nanjing military department, and his tone was very heavy.

Qi Rui can understand everyone's loss, the army used to be a very powerful part of Nanjing. Suddenly, the army in Nanking wilted completely. After the Nanjing Military Region, which was a garrison region, was abolished, the highest military units in Nanjing City turned out to be several military academies. And the highest rank among these military schools is lieutenant general. It is completely incomparable to the generalissimo who led the star-studded past more than a year ago.

After staying here, Qi Rui picked up the phone with excitement, trembling in his heart, and dialed the phone number of Chu Xue's new home with stiff fingers. He felt like he had been waiting for a long time, and even suddenly worried that no one would answer the phone. Then a very casual man's voice rang on the other side of the phone, "Hey! ”

With just this sound, Qi Rui felt a breath of life rushing to his face. The guy's muffled voice was very similar to the sound of biting a piece of steamed bun in his mouth. At the same time as this voice sounded, Qi Rui seemed to hear the sound of a little guy crying. Then he froze.

The other party didn't hear Qi Rui speak, so he asked in a very skeptical tone, "Hey! Who is it? ”

"I'm Chu Xue's classmate, and I just returned to Nanjing. Is Chu Xue here? Qi Rui said in a dry voice.

I thought that the boy who answered the phone would ask or even question, but Qi Rui heard the man say, "You wait." ”

Then the man's voice quickly became smaller, "Chu Xue, your classmate is looking for you." ”

Qi Rui made a lot of calls every day, so he knew that it was the movement of a man who put the phone next to the phone and then turned around to call someone. He has seen and heard a lot about this kind of experience. Although Qi Rui could easily judge everything on the other side of the phone by his voice, Qi Rui found that he had forgotten Chu Xue's appearance. Not from now, Qi Rui actually felt that he always felt that he couldn't remember Chu Xue's appearance after separation. Everything about Chu Xue seemed to be a shadow, no matter how real the warm touch and intoxicating aroma brought by that shadow were, but Chu Xue herself was just an unrecognizable shadow.

When there was a slight wheezing sound on the phone, Qi Rui immediately recalled the experience when Chu Xue leaned on his shoulder. Even with just a slight glance, Qi Rui could find Chu Xue from the endless flow of people, and it had been the case many times in the past.

"Who?" Chu Xue asked on the other end of the phone.

"......" Qi Rui's nose was sour, and tears came out of his eyes again. I had the experience of the last time, and I was alone in the empty guest house room. Qi Rui didn't stop this, so he felt choked in his throat and couldn't speak at all.

"Hello? Who are you? Chu Xue's voice became suspicious.

Qi Rui reluctantly regained the feeling in his throat to the level of being able to speak, and then said as calmly as possible: "I'm Qi Rui, I'm back in Nanjing." ”

At noon the next day, Qi Rui stood in the agreed place. It's amazing, this is the place agreed upon when Qi Rui met Chu Xue for the last time, and it is very close to Chu Xue's parents' house. Qi Rui felt that this made him sad, because his parents' home in his mind was not too far from here, but now it is someone else's home. The home is gone, including the hukou, Qi Rui is no longer from Nanjing. In terms of military status, Qi Rui is a soldier in Xinxiang City, thousands of miles away. But even if he crossed the road of 10,000 miles twice, Qi Rui still felt that he belonged to Nanjing.

Then Qi Rui saw Chu Xue. When parting, Chu Xue was slender and tall. Now she is still tall, and her whole body has become plump. The once beautiful girl has become a more mature and attractive beautiful woman. But no matter how Chu Xue changed, Qi Rui could still see that smile and vigorous movements.

Chu Xue also seemed to recognize Qi Rui from a distance, but she was stunned. stared at Qi Rui for several times, and then continued to move forward.
