Through the window of the room, he saw a group of people, this is a group of ordinary people who were originally carefree, happy and happy life, a change, a catastrophe, they were from carefree by a sudden war to break this status quo of life, their faces can no longer appear smiles, happy and joyful, there is only endless torture and never-ending riots and massacres, this is an unfair war, the enemy's weapons are stretched out to their gang of defenseless people, the enemy's butcher's knife and oppression follow one after another, In the war with the enemy, the dead, the disabled, the depressed, the depressed, everything is so terrifying, everything is cruel to unity and peace, a little life, an oasis, a general needs to open up, that is what hope.

Although everything is not so bad, after all, there is faith, hard work, and dedication, then there will be hope in life.

Lin Maolin looked at the window, and when he walked out of the door, suddenly, a woman stood in front of him, only to see that this woman was dressed simply, and she was so simple that people knew that she was an authentic village girl at a glance, but the only thing that was different from other village girls was that Lin Maolin's eyes clearly saw the beauty of his face, and the fine lines on his forehead revealed the beauty of a young woman.

"General Lin."

I saw that the woman said timidly.

Lin Maolin came to him and asked, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”

The woman's face flushed, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on his face, showing even more blush and endless spring light.

"Nothing, nothing."

Lin Maolin turned around and was about to leave when he heard nothing, when the woman's stammering voice came: "General Lin, that's the case, I want to ask you for a favor, I, I ....."

Lin Maolin saw that her face was flushed, and she asked after talking hesitantly, "Do you have anything to do with me?" If there is anything to say, this is your home, and when something happens, we will discuss and solve it together. ”

The woman finally stopped talking halfway through. "That's right, one of my sisters didn't come with me when I came here, she should have been lost, or fell into the hands of the enemy, I thought, General Lin can help me find my sister, I will promise you whatever you ask me to do."

Lin Maolin said: "Your sister is lost? ”

"Mmmm, yes, my sister escaped from Luoyang with me, and now, I don't know her whereabouts, a girl, alone, I, as a sister, have nothing to help him, but, ask General Lin." After speaking, the girl knelt down, tears had blurred her vision, she didn't know what to do, this was a woman's first instinct, in her eyes, General Lin was a person worthy of her trust, so she would come over in the afternoon.

Lin Maolin helped her up and said, "You get up first and then talk about it, will you talk about your sister's affairs tomorrow?" ”

The girl refused to get up no matter how Lin Maolin pulled, and said: "General Lin, please, you must help me, I am really desperate, and I don't know who can help me, except you." ”

Lin Maolin was a little helpless, squatted down and said, "Girl, what does your sister look like, and what are the distinguishing features?" Or do you have any images of her or something? ”

The girl thought for a moment and said, "My sister has round eyes, a slender figure, a docile personality, and long black hair that falls to her waist. ”

"Can you draw it? I'll send someone to look for it. ”

When the girl heard that Lin Maolin had promised to help him find it, she put away her tears and said in a panic: "General Lin, thank you, you are a good person, I don't have anything for you, you can do whatever you want me to do." ”

Lin Maolin waved his hand and said, "Give me a portrait tomorrow morning, remember, the outline of the facial features and so on must be clear, especially the conspicuous parts must be depicted, if the people under my command can't recognize it, it's all your responsibility." ”

The girl was so happy that she almost forgot about it, and with Lin Maolin's support, General Lin's strength stood up and said, "Thank you, General Lin, thank you, I will definitely come over tomorrow morning." ”

On this day, at night, Lin Maolin thought a lot, Wu Cheng came over to report to him about the military situation, he also thought a lot, the enemy came prepared this time, Dongying people are not good, he can't sit still, he won't sit still, now at the critical juncture, think about how to survive, compared to the bandit mountain soldiers is simply a world of difference, if they are hard, they only have a dead end, this is of course the last resort, now, Lin Maolin remembered something, Maybe that's the only thing that can make them stronger, and the enemy is suddenly terrifying, but they also have their way to survive.

Seeing that the room was empty, everything didn't want to be the way it was, came to the head of the bed, sat on it, touched the bed board, the rope he put here was gone, when he turned around, his right hand moved away a wooden plank, and looked at the empty inside, Lin Maolin said: "It seems that there are other people in this bedroom who have come in, it seems that there must be an enemy's spy henchmen in the bandit mountain, this time wait to check it carefully." Come! ”

Pushing the door open, two soldiers stood in front and said, "May I ask General Lin what he wants?" ”

Lin Maolin said: "Has anyone come into my bedroom today? ”

The two soldiers pondered

After a while, he said: "My subordinates don't know, the two of us just came over to be on duty not long ago, and Lao Zhao and Lao Chen were on duty in the morning, and we just handed over the shift, and we didn't see anyone coming." ”

Lin Maolin said: "It's like this, one of you keeps vigil, and the other goes over to call Lao Zhao and Lao Chen to come over." ”

"Yes"

A soldier walked out, and soon after, Lao Zhao and Lao Chen came to Lin Maolin and said, "General Lin, no one else came over when we were on duty. After thinking about it, Lao Chen said: "Oh, by the way, report to General Lin, there is indeed one person who has come in, that is Zhao Wei, you are also there in the morning, Zhao Wei will go out about ten minutes after you leave." ”

Lin Maolin then asked, "Except for Zhao Wei, no one else has come in?" ”

Old Chen said hesitantly: "There should be no one, we really didn't see anyone else when we were on duty." ”

Lao Zhao on the side thought for a long time and said, "General Lin, in fact, there is also one who came to send you information, and that is General Wucheng." ”

Lin Maolin asked, "What kind of information to send?" ”

The soldier looked at Lin Maolin's table and said, "That's the information, we conveyed it at that time, and General Wu didn't come in." ”

Lin Maolin picked up a volume of documents on the desk and opened it to see that it was some military deployment maps, as well as more and more news about the number of displaced people coming today.

Lin Maolin simply read it, he already knew what he was talking about, and the most important thing was that there seemed to be no food and grass now, because there were too many people, so that their only remaining food was not enough for the soldiers to eat, Wu Cheng came over this time I don't know whether to report the training results and strategic deployment, or to remind him whether he would continue to accept refugees.

Lin Maolin put down the document and said, "If there is no one else, you can go down first, remember, train hard tomorrow." ”

"Yes." The two of them reported and then went out, while the other two continued to be on duty.

Lin Maolin walked out of the door, came to Zhao Wei's tent, knocked on the door, and said, "Zhao Wei, are you there?" ”

After the "in" sound, a beautiful woman walked out and hurriedly pulled Lin Maolin into her boudoir.

Zhao Wei poured tea for Lin Maolin, took some pastries, and said, "General Lin, are you hungry?" Eat more. ”

Lin Maolin picked up the teacup and said, "Zhao Wei, how are you doing lately?" What about the younger brother? Don't you want your brother? ”

Zhao Wei sat down, her eyes were obviously a little ruddy, and said, "Little, little him, he will become a man, I believe in him." ”

Lin Maolin said: "You sent Xiaoxiao to General Li's side?" ”

Zhao Wei nodded and said: "Yes, Uncle Zhou Huang and General Li are both heroes this time, with them to take care of, I believe that when I see my brother again, it may be another person, and at that time, my brother will have the ability to protect my sister." ”

Lin Maolin comforted: "Don't cry, my brother Jiren has his own celestial phenomena, why are you sad for your brother?" What's more, the younger brother can now be said to have an unlimited future. ”

Zhao Wei also stopped talking, Lin Maolin joked, and said, "It's okay, you have a good rest, disturb." ”

Just as Lin Maolin stood up and was about to leave, Zhao Wei hugged Lin Maolin from behind and said, "General Lin, don't leave me, if one day, I do something sorry for you, will you forgive me?" ”

Lin Maolin said: "You won't do anything to be sorry and feel emotional, you have a good rest, I'm going back." ”

Zhao Wei's hand held Lin Maolin tightly, through the touch on his back and waist, he obviously felt that Zhao Wei was very hard this time, and the report was tight, which made Lin Maolin a little reluctant, after all, this woman used to be his pillowman, and now his indifference is simply a judgment between the two, no matter how tight Zhao Wei's hand is, Lin Maolin still let go of her hand and said: "Now that it's dark, let's sleep separately." ”

With tears in her eyes, Zhao Wei said, "General Lin, General Lin, don't you want me anymore?" Why? Why? ”

Lin Maolin said: "It's not that I don't want you, but, now I just want to be quiet, these days, too many people have died in front of me, that immersive feeling, that, that shock, that thrilling, I don't want my brothers to die for me anymore." I also don't want Dongying people, Dongying people trample on the land of the Central Plains so unscrupulously, I, I don't want to, I want to drive Dongying people out of the Central Plains! ”

Zhao Wei stammered: "General Lin, you have worked hard, but, why?" Why can't you live well? The Central Plains royal family also didn't have a few good things. ”

Lin Maolin heard Zhao Wei's words, turned his head to look at her, and Zhao Wei and Lin Maolin faced each other, only two or three centimeters away, although Zhao Wei was not very good, but her lips were close to Lin Maolin's chest, breathing the body odor emanating from this man, the temptation of a man to a woman, just like a woman's temptation to a man, is fatal, and it is impossible to extricate himself, but now Lin Maolin seems to know something, for the Zhao Wei in front of him, he chose to be silent. "The royal family is like this, but what about the people of the Central Plains? Everything on the land of the Central Plains. The silence was broken.

Zhao Wei cried and said: "General Lin, I didn't mean that, I just want to say, if one day in the future, I am going to die, and you need to give up what you have now to save me, are you willing?" ”

Lin Maolin thought for a moment and said, "I, Lin Maolin, have nothing, of course let me give up."

It's just that the premise of my renunciation is that I can't hurt other people, I can't help abuse, and I can't betray the country for glory! ”

Zhao Wei said: "I'm not asking you to turn your back on the country, I'm just asking you to give up everything, let's find a quiet place, just me and you, the two of us, I want to give birth to a lot of children for you, you plough the fields and come to me to weave a warm life." ”

Lin Maolin took Zhao Wei's hand and walked out of the tent, at this moment, he chose to be silent, he already knew everything, but, he didn't want to say it, he just wanted to give her a chance, and he also wanted her to repent herself, but Lin Maolin was disappointed, in exchange for a nonsense to escape from the world, he couldn't do it, and he wouldn't do it, after all, now he is not just a common man, he is also a general this time, this general who shoulders the mission, the enemy's artillery fire is intensifying, and our soldiers can't grow in setbacks and tribulations but blindly retreatThe more frustrated the more cowardly it is a taboo for soldiers, and the more you fight, the more courageous you are, the more exemplary and responsible a general has for the soldiers.

Zhao Wei looked at Lin Maolin's departing back, she knelt on the ground, and her voice was hoarse, "General Lin, you hate it so much, I was also forced." ”

Lin Maolin never looked back when she left, she passed through this simple resettlement camp, where a fire was being lit, the people were singing and jumping around the fire, this time, there was no persecution of war, no fierce pursuit of the enemy, no hunger and cold, some bandits in the army, originally they were also farmers, for various reasons to know each other, at this moment, their hearts seemed to be connected, everyone cheered, jumped, this time was their happiest day, thousands of refugees gathered here, There are strong men and weak women, old people and children, at this moment, no matter who they are, they are happy, happy, cheering, all the unhappiness has been discarded, and all the parting has been washed away in this party.

Lin Maolin walked into the crowd, many people didn't know him, and some villagers handed him a wine glass and said, "Brother, do you want a glass?" ”

Lin Maolin took it and was drained in one gulp, and said happily: "Good, good, it's good wine!" ”

Several villagers saw that Lin Maolin was so open-minded, so they continued to take out the wine bottle, opened the wine cap, poured it full, and said: "Brother is really good for wine, we didn't dare to think about it before, one day we can get together to drink and talk, to live has become a luxury for us, in the face of such a wonderful world, our hearts are trembling, our eyes are warm, our dreams are also the simplest, that is, we hope that we will always be like this in the future, brothers together, happy and happy, wine and meat through the intestines, pleasure comes naturally." ”

Lin Maolin touched a glass with him and said, "This is natural, believe in yourself, this dream will definitely come true." ”

The villagers laughed innocently, some of them still have scars, in this party, they forgot the pain, forgot the sadness, forgot the misfortune, they are the most lucky, gathered on this bandit mountain, although it doesn't sound so good, but, this does not prevent the soldiers from cheering, compared to the bandit mountain, the court, officialdom and Dongying talent is the most terrible, whoever rules is the same, the people have always lived in dire straits, if there is one person who can make them really rise, I think, That person must be their hero, because that is the most desirable and extravagant idea they want.

Zhao Wei stood in the distance and watched Lin Maolin smile happily, a group of grassroots gathered together, green nature has become the most beautiful scenery here, they represent vitality, represent the future, what they support is not a parting, more like a dream, a dream of the Central Plains, in this dream, they carry too much, too much, everyone has forgotten their origin, only the practitioner still remembers every step, and the hardships of each step are like a chopping block, imprinted in their memory.

After eating and drinking, Lin Maolin stood up and said, "Brothers, eat and have fun today, sleep peacefully tonight, and wake up tomorrow morning to be another world." ”

The people didn't know who he was, but in the eyes of the soldiers, they saw that this person's status in the army was not ordinary.

"Okay, that's right."

Wu Cheng walked over, put his hands behind his back, and the others were looking at him, many people here know Wu Cheng, not because of anything, but because this party was organized by Wu Cheng himself, and he also handled this kind of thing by maintaining law and order, so Wu Cheng's status in the hearts of the people can be said to be of no importance.

When Lin Maolin saw Wu Cheng coming, the seriousness on his face instantly turned into a smile, Wu Cheng knelt in front of Lin Maolin, and said: "Report to General Lin, without your consent, I made my own decision to let the people get together, it is my fault, but, General Lin, maybe you have also read my recital, my subordinates are so wasteful at this critical moment of lack of grain and grass, and they are willing to take on the heavy responsibility of finding grain and grass."

When the people heard that there was a shortage of food and grass, one or two soldiers looked solemn, and they wanted to help them, but not everyone had the ability.

Lin Maolin said: "General Wucheng, it's not your fault, what you did this time is quite right, it's just that we have to find grain and grass, I don't know where there is enough grain and grass?" ”

At this moment, a common man stood up and said, "Report to the general, this grain and grass is in Luoyang." ”

Another person said: "Aren't you talking nonsense, Luoyang has been occupied by the enemy, can we get the grain and grass in Luoyang?" ”

Another said, "I have a way here." ”

Lin Maolin looked at him, and sure enough, the wisdom of everyone is the real wisdom.
