At noon the next day, Liang Guocheng escorted the prisoners back to the regiment headquarters. Seeing that he was the only one, the bearded regiment commander asked about the situation, only "sigh", did not say anything, and returned to the command with a gloomy face. Through the interrogation of the prisoners, information on the enemy's position was obtained. The shells of the Volunteers looked like eyes, and the infantry shelled most of the allied firing points before attacking. After the battle, he found him on a small dirt slope. Li Yuanchao still maintained the shooting posture, and the blood flowing from his leg was frozen with Bai Xue, and he had already died. Liang Guoxiang had a piece of something, which blocked his throat at once, and he wanted to swallow it, but he couldn't spit it out. After holding it for a few days, until the celebration party, when the whole venue was jubilant, the bearded head personally brought the medal to his chest, and he suddenly burst into tears.

Xiaoyu counted the days, and he had not received a letter from Liang Guocheng for more than 20 days, which was the first time that he had been in the war for so long since he entered the DPRK and participated in the war for two years. After the last class in the morning, the students all went to the cafeteria to eat, she trotted all the way, ran to the school gate gate to check today's letter, and walked away disappointed after reading it. Since Liang Guocheng joined the army and entered the DPRK, Xiaoyu began to worry endlessly, worried that he would not be able to eat enough on the battlefield, whether he could dress warmly in the cold and snowy North Korea, whether he could sleep in a house with fire at night, and especially whether he would be injured? And his letters always talk about the war very easily, especially when it comes to food and accommodation, it is even more delicious and full, and the house with the fire wall of the Korean villagers who live at night sleeps on the warm kang as if he is not on the battlefield, but a trip to Korea. In the past, there were letters that were delayed for a few days, in which he always had to find a reason to explain. He also always understands that he has no choice but to be on the battlefield, which reassures him. This time, she didn't believe it for more than 20 days, and her first reaction was that she might be injured. She went to the military station to inquire, it was not the normal recruitment season, there were no chiefs there, only a few general staff who did not understand anything. People born before liberation were influenced by Confucian culture, although highly educated, more or less superstitious. Liang Guocheng had a dream before joining the army, standing in front of her covered in blood, often waving it and coming again.

Since Liang Guocheng entered the DPRK for two years, every year to the winter conscription, Xiaoyu has actively signed up to join the army, she wants to use the knowledge she has learned in school to go to the front line to serve the new country and serve the bloody volunteer soldiers; I want to be with Liang Guocheng even more, take care of his daily life, and remind him to pay attention to safety at all times. Every time, she was dissuaded by the head in charge, and kindly persuaded her to complete her studies so that she could better use the knowledge she had learned to serve the motherland. What she didn't know was that the army was a disciplinary unit, and even if she joined the army, it was impossible for her to be assigned together, not to mention that everyone's work was different.

In the third year of the Korean War, it has reached the stage of talking about fighting. Negotiations rely on strength and results. Therefore, the scale of the war is also getting larger, the more war materials are used, and the number of soldiers on the front line is several times more than at the beginning of the war. The country has set off a frontline to support the "defense of the homeland" and give priority to domestic supplies to the loveliest people*. A group of well-known artists such as the famous actor "Chang Xiangyu" performed nationwide, donated planes and artillery to the Korean front, braved the flames of war to perform on the front line, greatly encouraged the people of the whole country and the front-line soldiers, and the good news of the victory on the front line was frequently spread, and the rear of the motherland set off a large-scale production. However, as the war expanded, so did the number of wounded on the front lines, and more doctors and nurses were needed. The volunteers first considered recruiting from the civilian population, but at that time, just after the liberation, Chinese folk doctors were mainly Chinese medicine, and the wounded soldiers on the front-line battlefield were all traumatic, and Chinese medicine played a small role on the battlefield. After repeated consideration, the Volunteer Army Command decided to graduate from medical school; It is best to recruit among recent graduates.

When the conscription notices were first posted in the academies and universities, the troops were worried that the country had just been liberated, and that the patriotic education of the students had not yet been done in a solid manner, and that the amount of registration would not be too much, so they could only mobilize the backbone forces to enlist in the army. On the contrary, after the conscription notice was posted, for a while, the students at the school immediately hugged the soldiers. Although the conscription order stated that only medical and nursing students who had graduated from the current year were recruited, the students who had just entered the first grade and looked like children who had graduated from the first grade with a childish face, and there were many students from other disciplines. However, the enlistment office received an order to recruit only students in the medical and nursing classes of the current year, and those who did not graduate from other disciplines were not registered, which made the students complain. The leaders in charge of conscription were sweating profusely and patiently explaining that they could not dampen the patriotic enthusiasm of the students, but also had to fulfill the tasks assigned by their superiors in accordance with the requirements of the troops.

Xiaoyu heard the news at the end of class, and hurriedly ran to the school gate to ask the old man who was in the communication room. The old man seemed to be illiterate, wearing reading glasses, and reading the newspaper word by word with a crooked head with a few goatees in one hand. Xiaoyu has always come here for two years to see if there is any letter from her, knowing that his ears are a little back, and asked loudly: "Uncle!" ”

The old man was engrossed in reading the newspaper, and was startled by Xiaoyu's sharp voice, and the hand that stroked his beard subconsciously pulled his beard, probably painfully, "Oops! He screamed, rubbing his chin vigorously with his hands: "You child, you child." ”

Xiaoyu almost laughed out loud, and hurriedly covered her mouth.

"No letter from you today." The old man looked unhappy, and shook his head like a rattle.

"I don't ask about the letter today, I heard from my classmates that there is a military recruitment notice posted?"

The old man's reading glasses fell off the tip of his nose, rubbed his chin, rolled his eyes and said, "Look at the outer wall of the conference room!" ”

Xiaoyu thanked the old man and hurriedly ran to the conference room, and sure enough, there was a conscription notice on the wall of the door. She looked at the conditions for conscription, only recruiting students who had graduated from the medical class, and she was secretly happy in her heart, she knew that he just met this condition. She ran back to the dormitory, got her student ID and the necessary documents, left the school gate, got into a rickshaw, and arrived at the recruiting station.

This used to be a place where new recruits were concentrated, and Xiaoyu had been running here for the past two years in order to join the army, so he was familiar with it. She got out of the rickshaw, and the whole yard knew that he was already shouting and crowded. Xiaoyu saw that most of them were students, and those who had other disciplines or were not freshers could not apply, so she was a little excited. There was an older soldier who looked like a leader, and he explained to his classmates with a smile. She tried to separate the crowd, to get through the cracks in the crowd and squeeze into the front registration desk. Suddenly grabbed her wrist by a big hand, and she was running from the crowd with all her heart, she was suddenly caught by someone, startled, and looked up to see that it was Battalion Commander Zhao, a kind and kind person, and also the biggest officer in the military station. When she went to the winter conscription for two consecutive years, she came here to sign up for the army, and she was received by Battalion Commander Zhao, although she did not recruit female soldiers, Battalion Commander Zhao always patiently explained to her, and she felt that she could trust someone. Battalion Commander Zhao was able to recognize her in the crowd, also because after being in charge of the recruitment station, she was conscripted for two consecutive years, and it was full of young men of the same color, and only Xiaoyu, a thin young woman, signed up for the army. When he learned that she was still a college student, he fell in love with the child. Each time, he talked to her alone and explained: "The enthusiasm of young people to defend their country is invaluable! To serve the country, it is not necessary to join the army, the country has just been liberated and is recovering from the wounds caused by the war, and all aspects need talents, methods and opportunities. You are a college student, you have completed your studies, you have learned the knowledge of serving the country, and you can play a greater role in the construction of the motherland. Battalion Commander Zhao's tone of voice, Xiao Yujue was as kind and to the point as her father, on the one hand, she was glad that she grew up in this era, but also frustrated that she could not join the army.

Xiaoyu obediently followed Battalion Commander Zhao into the house, and Battalion Commander Zhao asked, "Have you decided to sign up for the army?" ”

Xiaoyu nodded and said, "Hmm! ”

"The superior ordered that only fresh graduates of medical and nursing students should be recruited."

Xiaoyu took out her student ID card and materials to prove herself from her bag, and said, "I am a fresh graduate of the medical class." ”

After seeing it, Battalion Commander Zhao said: "The front line needs a talent like you, you will definitely be approved!" ”

After filling out the form, go back to your school and wait for the notification. Xiaoyu's body was as if he had unloaded a thousand pounds of heavy burden, which was very relaxed. Jumping up and down, singing the revolutionary songs he had just learned, he seemed to feel that the sky was particularly blue, and the clouds in the sky were also particularly beautiful. She hasn't seen Liang Guocheng for two years, she misses him all the time, and when she thinks that she will meet soon, there is some shyness on her face.
