On the return journey, the troops again passed by rail. Yang Mingzhi didn't know if the enemy had repaired the railroad that had been blown up before, at least he didn't notice that there were trains running on the railroad again. In line with the principle of sabotage, the troops blew up the railway again.

Yang Mingzhi could not make a good assessment of what the destruction of the railway would ultimately do.

A party of 8,000 people successfully reached the new settlement.

In just a few days, a large number of wooden houses have been built here.

Yang Mingzhi was exhausted, but after seeing Roshakov, he still endured it and saluted each other.

"Report to Comrade Commander, we have prepared all the supplies in accordance with the order. We brought in another batch of tent materials, which was enough for everyone to stay overnight. Roshakov reported.

"Is this true? In this way, everyone can really have a good rest. ”

Yang Mingzhi turned around and looked at the people who had arrived one after another, one by one they were already sitting on the ground according to the arrangement, waiting for the next order. The people who are guarding the settlement have begun to distribute dinner, black bread cubes. The fish soup has also been boiled, and the troops have already begun to line up.

"Excellent! Very good! Roshakov, all the wounded and sick who arrived before, did they bring them to the village? ”

"Yes, they are already lying in Catfish Village Hospital, including one particular patient." Roshakov kept a thoughtful eye, and he asked in a low voice: "Sir, at first glance I thought that child was Besika, but she was not!" Should she also be Chinese? ”

"You guessed it!" Yang Mingzhi smiled and weakly punched him: "Roshakov, I also know that there are so many strange things that have happened on this battlefield. The child was an international student, and we had to save her and keep her healthy because it was of great international significance to us. ”

"So! You specifically ordered the child to be given special care, and I did observe the implementation of your order. I took her to the village hospital in a jeep as fast as I could, and then she would be lying in a comfortable bed, so she didn't have to worry about anything! ”

Through his explanation, Yang Mingzhi knew the exact situation of the wounded and sick who arrived first, and he also had a little doubt in his heart.

"You mean, they were all taken to Catfish Village Hospital? I know too well about there, that hospital ward is too small! ”

"Yes, sir! So trucks deliver the seriously wounded to the blacksmith village overnight, and you don't have to worry about it at all. ”

After that, Roshakov introduced: "Sir, the jeep prepared for you is ready to depart. You are the commander of the army group, and I have received orders from the city party committee and the deputy commander to make sure that you can sleep in a real dormitory tonight, and not in a tent. ”

The man made a gesture, and soon a jeep with its headlights on drove up with mud on it.

How can you oppose it?

It's only five or six kilometers away from Catfish Village, and when I first came here last year, there were only extremely winding paths, and now, the military and civilian mud and wooden blocks have paved a smooth road, and it leads all the way to Catfish Village!

Yang Mingzhi didn't get into the car immediately, he first called the battalion commanders and arranged for tonight's order.

For the vast number of liberated prisoners of war, it is the greatest happiness to be able to survive and eat bread and soup. They didn't ask for anything more, and after eating, they laid out their shacks and slept around the campfire.

All battalions of the combat unit have also set up tents, but the women's barracks have enjoyed special treatment, and they have become the first occupants of the newly built barracks.

Among these people, there is also a very special person - prisoners of war.

In the battle for the village of Bainiu, the troops captured only twenty people. These young Germans were tortured a lot along the way, and the Soviet soldiers spat on them from time to time, and even withheld their food, and when these people arrived at the ferry, they were languishing and seemed to faint. They had dinner with just a bite of bread, and then they were escorted across the pontoon.

Everyone was destined to spend only one night here, and the troops returned to their barracks early tomorrow morning to rest until the sun rose on May 5. The rescued people will also be assigned to new barracks, but they are destined to be temporarily overcrowded.

In the next two days, the soldiers may sleep in the dormitory continuously, and Yang Mingzhi knows that it will not be easy.

Yang Mingzhi sat in the co-pilot, enjoying comfort, while star fruit and Natasha followed in the back seat of the truck, while his guards climbed into the two trucks.

Such a small convoy turned on its headlights, steadily passed the pontoon bridge made of more than 20 wooden boats, and drove steadily towards the east.

……

It was already late at night, and Yang Mingzhi, who had taken a bath, was lying comfortably in the neat old headquarters dormitory.

After arriving at Catfish Village, he and the girls first went to the hospital, first to see if the wounded and sick were being properly cared for, and most importantly, to see Liu Hongxiu's condition.

The best doctor, Raslyutin, arrived in Catfish Village two days ago, and immediately after the sudden rain, he ordered his doctors and nurses to prepare for the flu.

Of all patients, children are the most fragile and therefore the most well cared for. The little girl who instantly reminded Raslyutin of star fruit was taken care of only by high-ranking officers. This kind of care, Natasha is the only minor who has ever enjoyed.

Liu Hongxiu lay quietly in a separate ward, a nurse waiting outside the door, and she was ordered to visit every half an hour.

"Hmmm! She's doing well, it's supposed to be asleep! The door was slightly opened, and Yang Mingzhi saw the situation inside with the help of an oil lamp.

The child was covered with a white blanket and only one head was exposed. She slept peacefully, and a hint of relief floated in Yang Mingzhi's heart, and at this moment, he suddenly had a sense of happiness similar to being a father.

Pepper is safe, and the hearts of star fruit and Natasha are also relaxed. The three of them are tired and tired, and what should be done is still indispensable.

Fomin has been transferred out of Catfish Village, which is managed by the village chiefs Pobosky and Roshakov, and the old command is now in the hands of Kravsky.

These two attach great importance to the physical condition of the officer, and the necessary enjoyment that an officer should have is indispensable, one of which is to take a hot bath!

Hot water is always ready, and there are more than a dozen large wooden barrels. All the wounded and sick were at least wiped down, and the sick were almost slightly soaked in the bucket.

It was Yang Mingzhi's turn, and he himself was immersed in the whole body and enjoyed the relaxation of his whole body. In the next room, two girls also jumped into the water for the first time in seven days.

The two girls would be chattering about something, and he didn't have the time to think about it. His skin was already full of sludge, and there was a lot of dust in his hair, and the military soap that was fortunately airdropped, and even the soil soap made by the village itself, had no ability to remove dirt!

After this bath, he was cleansed, and when he saw the two girls again, they also regained their freshness and beauty. Both were draped in their hair, their military uniforms had been taken off and washed, and both were wearing dresses. Especially Natasha, her appearance without braids is more worthy of this white dress, and the whole person is pure and lovely.

Young girls often can't help but scratch their heads in front of the men they like, not to mention that although Natasha is sixteen years old, she is a real blonde and blue-eyed, wash off the smoke and mud to restore fair skin, her figure is already mature and her face is already a little immature, this is enough to make men want to be a big girl!

She showed a smiling face, and her smile was like a flower: "Comrade Commander, look, am I so beautiful?" I've worn it for so long that I've forgotten what it used to look like. ”

"That's right! You are pretty! ”

"What about me? Elder brother! Star fruit asked.

Sounds challenging? "You? Are you beautiful? I can't wait to hold you in my arms now! ”

Star fruit was satisfied when she heard this, and she still didn't fall into her husband's arms after all. For no other reason, the two girls made an agreement that the two would rest together tonight.

Yang Mingzhi nodded: "Very good!" You two are sisters who are friends in life and death, and you will be here to recuperate in the next few days, and you should enjoy a vacation. ”
