Similar to the story of Baiyang Village, it is being played out all over Jishi County, around Jishi City, there are a large number of villages of retired disabled soldiers and immigrants who have grown up with Jishi City, they have built Jishi City little by little, little by little to build their own homes, turning pieces of wasteland into today's fertile fields, turning sewage ditches into fishing ditches, once barren and inhabited land, into today's prosperous hometown, paradise, now they live in Mingtang, have surplus food at home, and have surplus money in their bags, This kind of life is something they have never thought of before, nor dare to imagine, and what brought them this qiē is naturally the expedition to the Eastern Mansion and the Eastern Army.

Poplar Village is just the biggest of them.

To defend the Zhengdong Mansion and support the Zhengdong Army is to defend one's homeland and defend the happy life that one has gained through years of hard work.

A red team drove from the periphery of Jishi County to Jishi City.

The station of the first company of the red guard, Yang Dasha sat in the company, stroking a big flag in his hand, that is the flag of the first company, this flag, once accompanied the first company to all the regions of the Eastern Mansion, from the beginning of the formation to the present, the first company has a total of 252 soldiers, several years of conquest, now there are still 58 people left under his command, especially in the last battle of the palace guard army led by Yan Qi in Hetao, the first company suffered most of the battle, plus the seriously injured and retired, now the first company has only 58 men left.

Of the four platoon commanders, now only Meng Songhai is left, those brothers who followed him and charged forward indomitable, are they doing well in heaven now? Stroking this banner stained with countless blood, Yang Dasha is an iron-clad man. I burst into tears.

The door was pushed open suddenly, Meng Songhai strode in, and was about to speak, but when he saw Yang Dasha with tears on his face, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide and stay where he was, in his heart, Dasha Company Commander has always been a nervous and iron-clad man, but his body was cut to a blur of flesh and blood, and when the military doctor was worried about his infection and poured the liquor on him like water, the muscles on his body jumped suddenly. They were all frightened on the side, but Dasha even the commander didn't hum, why is he crying now.

"Company commander, the banquet outside has been set up, and the big guys are waiting for you!" He snorted.

Yang Dasha nodded, stood up, raised the bright red flag, raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face, "Let's go!" ”

In the courtyard of the company. There were three rows of long tables, and fifty-six men in new robes sat in the middle of them. There are a lot of empty seats, but on top of each empty seat, there are also dishes and chopsticks. If someone carefully counts them, they will add them up. That's exactly two hundred and fifty-two.

Seeing Yang Dasha striding out of the company, fifty-six people made a noise and all stood up. Yang Dasha nodded at everyone. He walked straight to the flagpole on the side, stretched out his hand to hang the flag, and personally raised the flag to the top of the pole. The banner fluttered in the air in the wind, and Yang Dasha took a step back and shouted loudly: "Salute!" ”

Everyone's right hand touched their left chest at the same time, and fifty-eight pairs of eyes stared at the big flag that was waving in the air.

"Conquer the Eastern Army!" Yang yelled.

"Wan Sheng!" The soldiers shouted with almost all their might.

Yang Dasha's gaze slowly turned, sweeping over every soldier's face, from every empty seat, "Brothers, since three years ago, the Governor began to form a personal guard battalion, I was in the first company, starting from a small soldier, step by step, to the company commander, up to now, our first company has a total of two hundred and fifty-two brothers, but today we can still sit here, there are only fifty-eight brothers in total, and the others have gone one step ahead of us." ”

When all the soldiers heard this, their eyes were a little blurred, and among these departed people, they were once familiar partners, but now, they are separated forever.

"Everyone also knows that the Governor has abolished the establishment of the Guards Battalion, based on the Guards Battalion, and expanded into the Young Guards, you will all be officers of the Young Guards, and after drinking this wine, everyone will disperse, the Young Guards have four divisions, and I don't know which unit you will be transferred to, but I ask all of you to remember that no matter where you go, no matter how big an officer you become in the future, how many soldiers you bring, remember the first company of the Guards Battalion, remember that this face is stained with the blood of your brothers, The blood of your enemies, and the banner of your own blood, remember these departed brethren who fought with you. ”

"Never forget." A thunderous roar rang out.

Yang Dasha listened to the tsunami-like answer, his eyes couldn't help but turn red again, and a few old tears fell down again without breath, but none of the fifty-seven men standing around him laughed at him, because at this time, they were also the same as Yang Dasha, especially the recruits Mei Hua and Wu Ya in the eyes of the two old birds, and the tears fell down like broken beads.

But no one reached out to wipe it.

"Men don't flick when they have tears, but it's not time to be sad!" Yang Dasha shouted loudly, "There is nothing to be ashamed of, Meng Songhai, pour wine, pour wine for every brother, Mei Hua, Wu Ya, you two stupid birds, don't come out to help." ”

"Yes." Two crying guys ran out, lifted two jars of wine from the side, and poured all the wine bowls with Meng Songhai.

"Pick up the bowl!" Yang Dasha shouted loudly. "The first bowl of wine, we respect the governor, if it weren't for the governor who took us out and called the majesty, I'm afraid that now we are still alive like a dog, the red-clothed guards, follow the governor, go to play a Lang Lang Qianhan, play a prosperous world, come, do it!"

"Respect the Governor!" Fifty-eight people turned to the direction of the Governor's Mansion in Jishi City, held the wine bowl high, and drank it all.

"Second bowl, to our departed brethren!" Yang Dasha said: "One hundred and ninety-four brothers, we only found the families of eighty-three brothers, the rest, either orphans, or relatives have died, today, in front of all the brothers, we promise, even if we are no longer in the first company, but we will still support the families of these eighty-three brothers, you, promise?" ”

"This is our obligation!" Another neat thunderous roar.

"Okay, drink this bowl."

It's all over again.

"The third bowl is my salute to you. In the past few years, the brothers of the first company, I am afraid that no one has not been beaten by me or scolded by me, but you still regard me as the best brother and the best comrade-in-arms, and I thank you. Without you, there would be no prestige of the first company, and Yang Dasha did it first as a respect. ”

"Company commander, you are the best company commander, you are our best brother." Meng Songhai said loudly, raised the wine bowl, and looked around, "Brothers, aren't you?" ”

"Yes."

"No matter where we go in the future, the company commander will be our company commander and will never change."

"Forever."

"Good, good!" Yang Dasha couldn't help but shed tears again, "Rabbit cubs, I have been shed tears again." Come, drink, you can get drunk today, and you don't have to worry about whether you are on duty or not, because, from today onwards, our first company has been disbanded, and our responsibilities have been taken over by the garrison of Jishi County. Everyone, get drunk. ”

In the first company, it immediately became lively, and countless veterans brought wine bowls and walked straight towards Yang Dasha.

Looking at the company commander who was surrounded by veterans, Mei Hua and Wu Ya glanced at each other with a wry smile, among the army, it is the place where seniority is the most, even if they toast to the company commander, they are afraid that they will have to wait until the end.

Wu Ya took the wine and walked towards Meng Songhai, the platoon commander who had been squeezed out by the veterans after drinking with the Dasha company commander, but Mei Hua sat down, picked up the wine bowl, and raised it to an empty seat next to him.

"Fat man, I respect you. To be honest, I used to hate you, because when I was still boiling eagles by you, you actually used the trick of a monkey stealing peaches to cut off your grandchildren, and Lao Tzu's bird hurt for a few days, do you know? At that time, I thought, when will I give you this trick, so that you can also see it, but you dead fat man, why don't you live and wait for me to give you a monkey stealing peach, why do you want to block that knife for me, you dead fat man, you usually don't even look at me, why did you block a knife for me at that time?"

He cried loudly, drank the wine as he cried, and then picked up the wine in front of him and spilled it on the ground. Fatty, drink well, over there, I don't know if there is such a good wine to drink, don't spill it."

Lifting the wine jar, he poured two bowls again, "Fatty, I also saw the suicide note you left in the company, it turns out that you are also from Hejian and my fellow countryman, I told the company commander that your relatives who stayed in your hometown will be raised by me, but I don't know where I will be assigned now, and when all the qiē is stopped, I will go to your house, you can rest assured where you are, this matter, I also told Wu Ya, if one day, I also chase you, he will take over, anyway, he has also divided the field at home, Life is much better, and half of his army will come out to support your family for you, and you won't go hungry, will you?"

After two bowls of wine in a row, Mei Hua's face was also red, his eyes were a little blurry, he staggered to his feet, and saw that there seemed to be fewer people at the end of the Dasha company commander, so he immediately carried the jar and walked towards the company commander.
