Chapter 59
Zhao Yuanzhi shouted dissatisfied, "Who is it?" Stand up and speak" A figure squeezed into the dressing room, and said coldly, "I said, Mr. Colonel, please take a closer look, don't go and wronged other people for a while" Zhao Zhi saw the person coming, and his smiling eyes were almost invisible, it was Edward. How did this dog day come about? Zhao Yuanzhi saw that he was still Edward, his face turned white with anger, and he said angrily, "Zhao Zhi beat the military doctor, and our military police need to take him back to investigate clearly."
Edward looked at William, who was lying on the ground but had woken up, and smiled in his heart. Except for the slap at the beginning, Zhao Zhi was still very attentive, and there were almost no obvious scars on William's body. Edward, who was crouching in front of William, said in an almost threatening tone, "Doctor William, did this captain beat you?" You have to think clearly before answering, he is a guest of the headquarters" William glanced at Zhao Zhi with some hesitation, and then looked at Edward, with an ugly smile like crying on his face, "Then how should I answer?" ”
Edward blocked Zhao Yuanzhi's gaze with his body, and quietly stuffed a gold ring into William's hand, "Doctor William, this captain is not only a guest of the headquarters, but he is also a friend of General Alexander, you know the answer, right?" William was confused by Edward's mist-shrouded words, but the gold ring he was holding in his hand was real.
"I just accidentally fell, the captain tried to help me, nothing happened to us," William's answer made the onlookers collectively stunned. William's face is still printed with a red mark of a big slap, why did he suddenly change his words, you must know that William's bitterness is very famous in Ledo. Satisfied, Edward stood up and shrugged his shoulders at Zhao Yuanzhi with a smile, "Mr. Colonel, you see, there are no beatings, no beatings, nothing happens" "Let's go" Zhao Yuanzhi, who was angry and had a green face, took the gendarmes away.
Edward glanced at Zhao Yuanzhi who was going out, and pushed Zhao Zhi on his shoulder, "Zhao, why did you provoke him, always looking for trouble with you?" Zhao Zhi took a boring puff of cigarette, patted Edward's head, and said, "It's not a good thing you did on a dog day, if you hadn't driven people to the third-class carriage on the train, would people be worried about me?" ”
The hospital saw that Edward was willing to speak for Zhao Zhi, and besides, it was indeed the responsibility of their doctor, so they did not hold Zhao Zhi responsible. After changing the medicine, Zhao Zhi endured the pain in his back, and returned to the barracks on Edward's three-wheeled motorcycle, the cook made braised pork today, Zhao Zhi had to go back quickly, or those guys wouldn't leave it for him. How can there be less Edward if there is good food, this kid is already very familiar with everyone, and he also gets some foreign wine for Uncle Guo from time to time, so he often comes to Zhao Zhi's mixed rice.
"Zhao, there is a plane to Kunming tomorrow, will you go?" Edward swallowed the meat in his mouth and said something to Zhao Zhi. "What time is tomorrow?" If you have a chance, the sooner you can, the better. "Leave early tomorrow morning, it seems to be a transport plane of the Flying Tigers, and it is to deliver supplies to Kunming" Edward looked at Mao Tou who was eating with his head down dirty, and Mao Tou's ears were obviously red.
"Rich man, after eating in a while, you and the profiteers will clean up our house, don't wait for tomorrow to be in a hurry. The goats and dogs checked all our weapons to see what else we needed. That old cannon, long-haired and Xiucai will take the female soldiers to buy some specialties or something, we can't go back empty-handed, just leave a thought"
What about me, "What am I doing?" "Uncle Guo is not satisfied with Zhao Zhi and excluded him." Edward got you some more wine, you can clean it up by yourself later, don't break it on the plane, it's a pity" Zhao Zhi hugged Uncle Guo, the two bit their ears, and Uncle Guo nodded with a smile.
"It's over, it's over, the two foxes have come together, everyone has no good life" Longfur looked at the two guys biting their ears depressedly. "Lao Tzu cleaned them up sooner or later, and skinned their foxes," Lao Cannon said with deep sympathy, and in order to show his anger and determination, he also took a bite of meat and chewed it vigorously in his mouth.
"Holy shit, aren't you two a good thing?" The rich man led the profiteer to pack up his things, and when he left, he did not forget to stimulate the old cannon and the long hair, but unexpectedly he was hit on the nose by a bone thrown by the old cannon, and the painful tears and snot flowed for a long time, and he was embarrassed. The old cannon's bones finally sparked the war, and a bunch of rotten people scuffled together, fists and boots flying, and nosebleeds soared. Edward, who had long been surprised, took the bowl of meat and changed places, and then feasted, and pointed and commented from time to time. The honest wrench really didn't know what was wrong with these people, and wanted to pull the rack, but Yuan Qingqing stuffed a bowl of meat and drove him to be Edward's company.
The twilight was low, the sky was overcast, the group fight had already ended, and the rotten people were lying on the ground on all sides, accumulating physical strength, preparing for the next melee. The old cannon that started the war is now fine, and only fist marks are seen on his face. The rich man was even worse than he was, with only half of his clothes left. The endurance and arrogance of the old cannon are probably comparable to the bear in the northeast, he just let go I don't know how many, he actually lay on the ground and was still scolding, "Dog's day, deflated calf, wait, wait for Lao Tzu to get up and then cut you"
Edward, who had enough to do and had nothing to do, was fiddling with a gramophone, which Uncle Guo got from somewhere, and the record probably came from the same way. The gramophone was repaired by a wrench, and it turned very smoothly, and an ethereal song sounded in the barracks.
"Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green. The evening breeze blows the willow flute, and the sunset is outside the mountain.
The end of the sky, the corner of the sea, half of the acquaintances. A cloudy wine is full of joy, and there is a lot of parting tonight.
Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green. Ask you when you will come, and don't linger when you come.
The end of the sky, the corner of the sea, half of the acquaintances. Life is rare to get together, only parting more! ”
As an Englishman, Edward could never understand how sad people were when they listened to this song. The old cannon's face, which was about to be misplaced, was full of sorrow at the moment, and Edward couldn't help but look sideways at that strange and sour face.
The old cannon wiped his face and continued to curse the people around him who were about to challenge, "Bad thing, come again" So at least three people pounced on him together, and the guys who were still lying down got up and scuffled together. Zhao Zhi stopped the dog and pulled out the bayonet beside the dog. "If you fight with your own people, be careful, don't hurt anyone." Zhao Zhi lowered his voice and said without any emotion.
Zhao Zhi just sat on the side and watched, watching the rotten people make a mess. It's been a few months, and everyone's hearts are pressed with fire, and it's okay to disperse.
"Oh, oh, the rich man of the dog day, you belong to the dog, why do you still bite people?" The embarrassed old cannon screamed loudly. The rich man, who really can't beat the old cannon, will lie on the old cannon's body, holding one of the old cannon's arms and biting fiercely, like gnawing on a pig's trotters. The old cannon who struggled out of the war group was now very good-looking, the clothes on his body had been completely torn, he was tearing off the last few rags on his body, the swelling on his face and the bruises on his body didn't bother to check, he was checking a bite mark on his arm.
"The rich man let me see your teeth!" Instead of being angry, he muttered, "Look at your rotten teeth, don't give me any contagion." ”
Zhao Zhi looked at this group of guys with blue noses and swollen faces helplessly, and couldn't help but scold, "It's all embarrassing guys, Lang Zhong, Lang Zhong" Lang Zhong, who was also bruised, stood in front of Zhao Zhi wearing a rag, I don't know what Zhao Zhi wants to do. "You clean up yourself first, and then clean up for these uncles, let's go back to China tomorrow, look at your picture, it's really ruined" Zhao Zhi left with a depressed face, leaving the uncles in one place.
In the open space in the corner of the barracks, Zhao Zhi inserted three lit cigarettes in the void, which was the last thing he did for his dead brother. "You, you just have too many things in your heart" Uncle Guo placed an open bottle of wine on the ground and sat down with Zhao Zhi. "If I had been tougher at the beginning, the 1,500 people taken away by Yu Shinan would have survived, as well as the more than 600 people taken away by Zhao Yuanzhi, more than 2,000 lives," Zhao Zhi smoked wistfully, with a hint of choked in his voice.
"You've done a good job, and you've brought back me, an old man, and you're good at eating and drinking. Look at the guys in the yard, didn't you bring them back? You're just a captain, these things are not your responsibility, you can't afford it"
"I just feel that my heart hurts," Zhao Zhi clutched his chest in pain.
"Don't talk about this kind of child in the future, these brothers behind you are still pointing at you, don't be stupid" Uncle Guo's warm hand brushed Zhao Zhi's head, and hummed a small tune in his mouth. Uncle Guo's warm hand made Zhao Zhi feel very comfortable, closed his eyes, listened to the melodious tune, Zhao Zhi fell asleep, this was the last night in Myanmar.
