Huang Tingting and other communists were robbed, and Ma Dabeard was killed. After receiving this news, the head of the Beiping Station of the Secret Bureau, Ma Liangchen, and others hurried to the scene of the accident. What puzzled the spy leader was: It can be seen that the ** rescue operation was carefully prepared, how could such a top-secret operation be cracked by the Communist Party? Ma Dabeard and the others only knew the content of the mission before the operation, who leaked the news?

Lying on the ground, Ma Dabeard had a large clot of blood on his chest, his beard was covered with ice, the whites of his eyes were cloudy, his mouth was slightly open as if he wanted to ask something, and he had an inexplicable expression of feeling that he was dead. Ma Liangchen looked down at Ma Da's bearded corpse covered with blood, and felt very proud: he deserved it! Who made you usually not take me in your eyes, today I will send you to the west by the hand of the Communist Party! The amount is not a gentleman, non-toxic and not a husband, now you should know that my old hemp is amazing! Ma Liangchen saw his boss frowning, so he pretended to be very sad and said to his boss: "Stationmaster, how did you let the Communist Party know about such a confidential matter?" What a pity! Ma Dabeard was ineffective, let go of the communists, and even took his own life. Ay! This old horse died in vain! With that, he let out a long sigh.

The spy leader with a frown on his brow pointed to Ma Liangchen's bearded corpse and said, "I must find out about this matter!" Since he's dead, I won't hide it from you. He once reported you to me, saying that you are suspected of colluding with the Communist Party, I ask you, such a confidential matter is only known to a few of us, how did you know? Who leaked the news? ”

Ma Liangchen was extremely nervous when he saw his boss looking at him suspiciously. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Stationmaster, you know that I hate ** the most!" If you hadn't given me a way out, I would have been arrested and killed by them, would I still be alive today? I and ** are incompatible, I hate to kill ** to get rid of my hatred, saying that I am a communist and that Ma Dabeard framed me. We don't know anything about you, you can't believe what he says! ”

"You two dog-eat-dog all day long, which of you do I have to believe? Tell me, are you happy that Ma Dabeard is dead now? ”

Seeing the yin and yang weirdness of his boss, Ma Liangchen hurriedly said to Ma Dabeard's corpse: "Ma Dabeard sacrificed his life for the party-state, so that we have lost a soldier who is extremely loyal to the party-state. Despite our prejudices, after all, he was my subordinate, and I am deeply saddened by his death. ”

The agents took some photos at the scene, loaded the bodies of several agents into the car and left.

After returning to the secret service station, the heads of several departments held a meeting in the office, discussing the cause of Ma Dabeard's death and several secret agents. The spy leader sitting on the side waved his hand to his subordinates next to him after careful consideration and said: "Don't be arguing about anything, this time the ** death row prisoner was robbed, I dare to conclude that it was Ma Dabeard who accidentally revealed the news that allowed the Communist Party to succeed." If you want to settle the score, you have to settle it on him! I want to report to the peak according to the truth. Do you have a different opinion? He said this, first, he was afraid that he would be punished for taking responsibility, and second, he had received a secret notice asking him to evacuate Beiping in the near future, and he had no heart to find out the truth of the matter, so he could only use the dead horse beard as a scapegoat.

Ma Liangchen, who was originally very afraid of investigating this matter, was relieved when he heard his boss say this, and he followed his boss's words and said: "The stationmaster is wise, in fact, I have long suspected that Ma Dabeard and the Communist Party have hooked up. If that's the case, this kid is more than innocent! ”

Someone questioned him: "Lao Ma, you said that Ma is bearded and communist, so why did you kill him?" ”

Ma Liangchen said: "I thought that ** was just using him and didn't treat him as his comrade, and after the incident, he unloaded the mill and killed the donkey!" ”

The spy leader nodded after hearing this, and he agreed with Ma Liangchen's statement, he said: "Judging from the cause and effect of this incident, the possibility of Ma Dabeard's collaboration with the enemy exists, and he is at least very suspicious anyway!" Old Ma, I'll leave this matter to you to investigate. After verifying, I should write a report as soon as possible, and I will explain to the peak as soon as possible. ”

Seeing that the spies had already decided on the case, there was nothing to say.

After the People's Liberation Army captured Tianjin, the team took a short rest and was about to leave for Beiping. Before the troops were about to leave, Wang Hongju asked the company for leave to visit the injured company commander Cui Fengming in the field hospital.

In the hospital, Cui Fengming was frowning and leaning crookedly on the bed thinking about his thoughts, he saw Wang Hongju follow a little nurse into the ward, and hurriedly moved his body to get out of bed, Wang Hongju hurriedly went up to support him, and asked affectionately: "Company commander, are you okay?" Cui Fengming pulled Wang Hongju with his left hand and laughed at himself and said: "What's good, without a right arm, I can't even shoot a gun!" ”

Cui Fengming asked Wang Hongju to sit on the edge of his bed, he looked at Wang Hongju happily and said, "I really want to be a soldier of our company, lying in the hospital all day and night!" ”

Wang Hongju grabbed the empty sleeve on the right side of Cui Fengming's body, looked at his haggard and bloodless face, and felt bad in his heart, and he didn't know what words to use to comfort the company commander. Seeing Wang Hongju's uncomfortable look, Cui Fengming laughed out loud, he said, "Don't be sad! How many brothers have lost their lives in Tianjin, what is it if I don't have an arm? Marx told me: 'I won't accept you, the Chinese revolution has not yet succeeded, you still have to live to carry out the revolution, but I will first ask you for an arm as collateral.' A few words amused Wang Pengju.

At this time, a nurse came over to change Cui Fengming's dressing.

"Company Commander Cui, when will Marx talk to you? Marx is a foreigner, can you understand what he says? The nurse stood in front of the bed with a plate of medicine and blinked mischievously, she stopped Cui Fengming with a word, Cui Fengming hurriedly interrupted and said: "Oops!!! Your little aunt and grandmother have come to torture me again, it hurts to change the medicine, I'm afraid, please let me go, okay?" ”

"Can the injury be healed if you don't change the dressing? I see you as a hero in battle, and you are like a bear when you see doctors and nurses! The nurse carefully straightened Cui Fengming's body and said.

Cui Fengming pointed at the nurse with his chin and said to Wang Hongju very exaggeratedly: "Look at it, her mouth is like a knife, who can afford to provoke her!"

"Company commander, you can take it! In the company, you command more than 100 of us, and here you have to obey the management of doctors and nurses, who are your superiors! ”

Wang Hongju carefully looked at the nurse who carefully changed the dressing for Cui Fengming, this girl was about twenty years old, well-proportioned and medium-sized, with a capable ear-length short hair, a melon seed face and a pair of curved thin eyes, very happy. She took off Cui Fengming's shirt and carefully changed the dressing for Cui Fengming's broken arm, she lowered her head and smiled when she heard Cui Fengming's words. Wang Hongju felt that her silhouette was very attractive, similar to Huang Tingting.

Cui Fengming's severed arm was wrapped in blood-soaked gauze, and when the nurse opened the gauze, Cui Fengming grinned in pain. The nurse said softly while carefully treating the wound: "I know that it hurts to change the dressing, Commander Cui, you bear with it for a while, and I will change it for you immediately." ”

The grassroots company is full of men, but there are many young and lovely female nurses in the field hospital, and these young and beautiful girls bring a lot of warm atmosphere to the hospital full of medical taste. Some of the sick and wounded in the hospital often called the nurses to their beds when they had nothing to do, in order to stay with the girls for a while, to talk a little more, to look at them a few more times. The meticulous and considerate care of female nurses makes the men who can't smell feminine all the year round feel the tenderness of women, and many big men who are alive and well on the battlefield have become obedient little sheep in front of female nurses.

At this time, the nurse changed the medicine, and she instructed Cui Fengming: "Company Commander Cui, you have just undergone surgery, your body is weak, and the hospital conditions are not good, and there is nothing nutritious to recuperate your body, so you have to rest more and talk less." Otherwise, I will go to the dean and sue you and ask him to criticize you. After speaking, the little nurse picked up a pillow and put it on Cui Fengming's back, let him lean on the head of the bed very comfortably, and then gently covered the quilt for him.

Cui Fengming teased at the back of the nurse: "The thorns and raw melons and eggs in the hospital almost made her a smooth donkey." To be honest, I want to look at such a nice girl twice. I dare to pat my chest and say that there are few men who can't see a woman without chemistry, and that a woman's power is greater than that of a tank and a cannon! Some people kill people on the battlefield like majestic, but they are taken prisoner under the woman's pomegranate skirt, don't you say? ”

Wang Hongju smiled and said: "There's nothing strange about it, the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass." ”

"That's right, do you know why the hero is sad about the beauty pass?"

"I don't know." Wang Hongju replied honestly.

Cui Fengming mocked: "Or a college student? I don't even know this, stupid enough! ”

"I didn't take this course when I was in school, you tell me why the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, I am willing to learn."

"Haha! This answer is actually very simple, that is, beautiful women love heroes! The beauties in this world are all over the world chasing heroes, do you think this hero can pass the beauty pass? ”

"Especially you, you can't open your legs when you see a beauty!" Wang Hongju followed.

The ridicule of the two made the wounded and sick around them laugh.

"Company Commander Cui, you are so handsome, are there many women chasing you?" One of the wounded in the clinic asked with a wicked smile on his face.

"Of course! The beautiful women chasing me lined up, but I didn't even look at any of them! ”

"Anyway, if you brag about it, you can't pay taxes, so Commander Cui, you can blow it hard! Let's see which woman can take a fancy to you, a braggart guy who spends all day long! The nurse who had just changed his dressing came over and counted him down.

The wounded man next to him coaxed the nurse and said, "I think you are quite interesting to our Company Commander Cui!" It's not bad, a beauty is a hero! The nurse's face turned red with shame, and she said, "Nasty!" He twisted his waist and covered his face and ran out of the ward.

"Haha! Hahaha! She's ashamed! Everyone laughed happily as the nurse ran away.

Talking about the topic of women, Wang Hongju thought of Huang Tingting, who he hadn't seen for a long time, and looked a little melancholy. He took out a box of cigarettes, picked one up himself, handed it to Cui Fengming, and said, "Smoke, Hademen cigarettes." Cui Fengming took the cigarette and asked strangely: "You used to annoy me smoking the most, why do you smoke now?" ”

"Ten years in Hedong and ten years in Hexi, don't keep talking about the past. Didn't you say that this thing is smoked by ten soldiers, just smoked, a few days later? I think it's open, our people who are soldiers and fight, our lives are not our own, maybe we will be reimbursed one day, if we don't smoke for nothing! Besides, what's so bad about smoking to relieve fatigue and boredom? I've also brought you several packets, all trophies, from Chiang Kai-shek, the Minister of Logistics. You take good care of your injuries, and I will bring a few more packs of cigarettes to see you after the defeat of Beiping. ”

As soon as he said that he was going to attack Beiping, Cui Fengming's mood suddenly fell. He didn't speak, his eyes stared at the ceiling and he gulped down a cigarette. Wang Hongju comforted him not to think too much, to recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, because China has not yet been completely liberated, and there are still many battles to be fought in the future. Cui Fengming sighed and said: "When I first joined the army, I swore that I would return to Beiping as a liberator. But now I'm lying in the hospital with a broken arm and watching you fight Beiping, and I feel like a wreck! ”

Wang Hongju said: "The liberation of Peking is the same with you or without you, there is no shortage of you!" Look at you, it's useless to think so much! It's important to recuperate! ”

The two chatted for a while, Wang Hongju wanted to rush back to the company, he got up and said to Cui Fengming: "Company commander, I have to go back to the company, you have to take care of your injuries, and I will come to see you after Beiping is defeated." Cui Fengming wanted to get up to see him off, but was pressed on the hospital bed by Wang Hongju.

Cui Fengming looked at Wang Hongju's back thoughtfully, and stopped Wang Hongju when he walked out of the ward door, he asked Wang Hongju to sit back on the edge of the bed and said, "There is something I wanted to say to you a few times just now, but I don't know how to say it, how to say this, this," he frowned and wanted to stop.

Wang Hongju said: "Company Commander Cui, you are a cheerful person, why is your mother-in-law and mother today?" Let's not be separated, if you have something to say, just say it! ”

Cui Fengming slapped his thigh with his good hand and said with great determination: "If you are still alive when you enter Beiping, please go to my home to visit my old parents, they are old and sick, especially my father is sick and bedridden all the year round, but I am not filial piety by my side, I don't know if his old man is still alive?" With that, he let out a long sigh, his eyes flushed. He took a hard puff of his cigarette and lowered his head.

Wang Hongju comforted and said: "This is no way to do it, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, you just have filial piety in your heart." ”

"Hongju, when you see them, don't mention my injury, so as not to make the old man sad." Cui Fengming continued: "There is one more thing you have to help me, this matter has been pressing on my heart for several years. Just now we talked about women, and we hooked up again. There is a restaurant called Juxianlou outside the front, and there used to be a woman named Chunli in the back kitchen of this restaurant, can you ask if she is still there? She is not yet thirty years old. If she's still around, you tell her that there's a younger brother named Cui Fengming who has been thinking about her. If she wasn't there," Cui Fengming lowered his head and muttered for a moment, then gently patted Wang Hong's hand with his hand and said, "Then forget it." Anyway, I must find her in the future! ”

"Company Commander Cui, who are you with that woman?" Wang Hongju asked strangely.

Cui Fengming said to Wang Hongju: "Don't rush back first, I'm lying alone in the hospital and panicking, you stay here with me for a while, it's been less than half an hour since I left the meal, and it's not too late to leave after lunch at my place." If the instructor criticizes you, you will say that I won't let you go! I'll tell you who that woman is later. After Cui Fengming finished speaking, he lit another cigarette, and he looked at the wisps of green smoke that came out of his mouth and fell into deep thought.
