Chapter 80: The Real Excuse

Chapter 80: The Real Excuse

I opened my eyes in a daze, and found that I was lying on the up-and-down stretcher, and there were bursts of pain all over my body, perhaps because the soldier carrying the stretcher was too big and woke me up.

Faces flickered in front of me, and there were a few faces that felt similar, but no one could see clearly in the darkness. A bespectacled volunteer cadre appeared in front of me, and after he looked at me seriously, he asked, "Is he Cui Wei, the commander of the 538th Regiment?" ”

After receiving an affirmative answer, he immediately ordered resolutely: "Quickly add two more hygienists, be sure to ensure his safety, prepare the car, and the guards...... Tune in a platoon to escort ...... Wait, two more tanks, there are mines on the road......"

I heard these words, but I was still in the 'chaos' and I didn't realize that these were all "services" for me. If I had known at the time, this bespectacled volunteer cadre was the commander of the 21st Army, known as Zhou Yu, and I also transferred a platoon of guards to escort me, and even used two tanks to open the way one in front of the other...... I would have jumped out of the stretcher with emotion. The units of the Volunteer Army have always paid attention to the equality of cadres and soldiers, and what wounded person will have such treatment?

But I didn't know that at the time, so I was lucky not to jump off the stretcher. Maybe it's because the physical exertion is too severe, maybe it's because you're too sleepy, or maybe you know you're safe, so your nerves are relaxed...... Anyway, I was only awake for a moment, and then I fell back to sleep.

I didn't sleep well this night, and I didn't know if it was a dream or reality, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that I was in the car compartment, and several hygienists were busy beside me under the kerosene lamp, and when I opened my eyes again, I saw Jin Qiulian and Lin Xue by my side, and then I opened my eyes and I was on a stretcher......

When I woke up completely and regained consciousness, I found myself lying on a 'bed', and a kerosene lamp hung on the wall, illuminating the infusion bottle at the head of the 'bed'. The body was covered with a 'bed' quilt, which was very clean and warm, compared to the muddy and dirty water on the 585.2 heights, it was simply a heaven and an earth.

I felt a little dizzy when I held up my upper body, maybe because I hadn't had time to recover from the loss yet

"You're awake," Jin Qiulian's surprised voice came from beside her.

"Comrade Kim...... Why are you here? I asked suspiciously, and soon realized that she had been asleep on the edge of the bed. Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel a little moved in my heart, how long have I been in a coma? Has she always been with me like this? She should also rest more after the war, how can she still do this? And also...... What about Lin Xue......

"Your Xue Mei is fine" Jin Qiulian seemed to see through my thoughts, and said with a light smile: "She has also come to see you several times, and she also wants to stay and take care of you, but her political commissar brother won't let her...... Ordered her to go back to rest, I was originally a hygienist, and it was only natural to take care of you."

As he spoke, he smiled at me proudly, as if he felt that Lin Xue couldn't take care of me by her side and she could, as if she had taken a great advantage......

"Oh, you wait" Jin Qiulian jumped up from the chair as if she suddenly remembered something, and while quickly taking out the porcelain bowl from the cupboard and walking to the stove where there was still a fire, she said jokingly: "Your Xue Mei is worried about you all day long, and I will send you a bowl ......of porridge every two or three hours, and repeatedly 'deliver' that I must heat it in the pot, otherwise you won't have hot porridge to eat when you wake up."

"Hey......" Jin Qiulian sat in front of me with a bowl of porridge, scooped a spoonful and put it in my mouth, and asked half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Your snow sister is so good to you, don't let people down."

"You ......" Listening to Jin Qiulian's words, I don't know how to answer it.

This is not quite like her, she has always been a person who will fight for what she wants, and will say whatever she thinks in her heart. But what she said now is obviously not what she thinks in her heart.

Of course, I don't dare to expect her and Lin Xue to accept me at the same time. When the 585.2 Heights entered the final 'hand-to-hand' battle with the puppet army, the two of them did mean this, but I also knew very well in my heart that it was just that everyone thought that they were going to die soon, so they didn't think about the difficulties of reality and the world's vision. For example, now, I believe that one of the reasons why Lin Xue didn't take care of me by his side was because he was worried about other fighters gossiping.

The difficulties of reality are...... The troops have the discipline of the troops, and both the DPRK and China are monogamous and will never allow such a thing to happen.

And I also know that the "style problem" in this era is very strict. Take our corps commander Wang Jinshan as an example, he is a person who has made great achievements on the battlefield, and now he has achieved the position of corps commander, no matter what, he can be said to be a senior cadre, but he is just temperamental, and he can't get along with his wife, so he insists on divorce. To say that this divorce is a normal thing for modern people, but in this era it is a veritable "style problem". As a result, all the military exploits made in the past were wiped out, and he truly understood Jiaguitian and became an ordinary person......

As a commander, I have been demoted because of such a "style problem", so what can I be considered as a district commander? What's more, my problem is still a big problem. And most of the time my soldiers didn't tell me about it, otherwise I wouldn't have been in the confinement room by now......

"By the way, how are the warriors?" I knew the answer I was going to get would be brutal, but I couldn't help but ask.

"The soldiers are all very good...... Jin Qiulian avoided my gaze, and pretended to be relaxed and said: "You will be healed, don't think about other things, the doctor said that you have lost too much blood, and your physical strength is too ......."

"Tell me, how many people are coming back?" Jin Qiulian is changing the topic, I don't want to let her be confused like this.

"There are still one hundred and forty-eight people in the two battalions of the 585.2 Heights" Jin Qiulian looked at me and replied a little helplessly: "The first battalion of the 522.1 Heights is only more than two hundred and seventy people. When they returned, none of the comrades knew anyone, and their uniforms were torn one by one, exposing their shoulders and stomachs...... Not a single fighter's clothes are in good condition"

I couldn't help but be silent, only more than 400 people made it back alive...... A regiment of more than 3,000 people went up, and it only took one or two days to go up, and only a fraction of them came down

"But there is one thing that is a great luck in misfortune," Jin Qiulian continued: "The casualties of the cold gun troops are not serious, and there are still twenty-three sharpshooters who have combat ability, most of them are slightly injured or have too much physical strength, and they will be fine after a few days of recuperation."

"Hmm" I nodded, there was a reason why the soldiers of the Cold Gun Unit suffered few casualties, they always knew how to protect themselves. And the roles they play in the mission are different, for example, when the soldiers are stabbing and they are 'shooting' the puppet army in the second line, which also makes their casualties smaller.

"Battle...... Did you win? Then I gritted my teeth and asked, our regiment paid such a big price for the victory of this battle. I wonder if the sacrifice of the fighters is worth it.

"Won" Jin Qiulian nodded: "The four divisions of the puppet army were hit by the devastating 'sex', and they were killed and wounded by our army, and there were many prisoners, but I don't know the specific number, the entire front moved 9.5 kilometers to the south, and all the heavy equipment of the four divisions of the puppet army, including tanks, cars, artillery, etc., were captured by our army......"

I was relieved to hear that the four divisions of the puppet army had been devastated, at least I knew that the sacrifices of the soldiers were worthwhile. In modern information, I know that the total number of these four divisions of the puppet army is nearly 50,000, and these four divisions are still several main divisions of the puppet army.

In fact, it did not matter how much equipment our army captured in this battle, the most important thing was to annihilate the living forces of the four divisions of the puppet army, which made the Syngman Rhee clique lose the capital of "going it alone" and facilitated negotiations. Now that our army has achieved the expected results, it is not far off that the next negotiations, reaching an agreement, and finally armistice will not be far off

The sacrifice of the warriors was worth it, because on the banner of negotiated agreement and peace there was a heavy stroke written in their blood.

"By the way, Master Pang has come to see you several times" Jin Qiulian continued: "He seems to be very concerned about your injury, as if there is something urgent, and has been asking the doctor when you will recover......

"Why didn't you say it earlier," I said, and immediately lifted the quilt and sat up.

"Where are you going?" Jin Qiulian looked at me suspiciously.

"Let's go to Master Pang," I replied as I grabbed a pair of shoes in front of the head of the 'bed' and put them on my feet.

"Puff......" Jin Qiulian laughed out loud when she heard my words: "Where do you think you are?" Still on the front lines? ”

"Oh? Where is it? "When Jin Qiulian said this, I realized that something seemed wrong, because I hadn't heard gunshots and cannons for a long time.

"Fool, this is Pyongyang, at least a dozen hours away from the front line" Jin Qiulian stuffed a spoonful of rice into my mouth and said with a smile: "You don't know how much face you have, the Volunteer Army will arrange a tank escort for you, and the People's Army can arrange the best hospital and the best doctor...... Isn't it just that little skin injury, isn't it just a little more bleeding, and after a blood transfusion and rest for a few days, it's fine, can you do this? ”

However, although Jin Qiulian said this, I saw pride in her face. Every 'woman' is proud of her man's accomplishments, even though I'm not her man, even though it may not be much for me......

"That'...... Did Master Pang talk about it because of something? "I sat back on the 'bed' with some disappointment, because I understood that it was almost impossible to rush to the front line overnight to find Commander Pang under such circumstances.

Jin Qiulian shook her head: "He only asks you to recuperate from your injuries, and when you are well, you will go back to the division headquarters to report immediately."

"Hmm" I nodded, my brow furrowed. I secretly felt that it was definitely not a trivial matter for Master Pang to find me in such a hurry, otherwise, I had just gotten off the battlefield and was a little injured, although it was not serious, but at least let me recuperate for a while

What could it be? What else can be done now? Just waiting to sign at the negotiating table and then there will be an armistice, isn't it? Now it seems that I just have to wait on this sick 'bed' to return to China.

"Captain Cui......" Jin Qiulian suddenly sighed and said, "The battle is over...... I'm going back to China, can I see you again? ”

"Hmm" I almost choked when Jin Qiulian asked me this, why didn't I think of this question all along. I just wanted to end this damn war quickly, but I didn't expect that once this battle was over, Jin Qiulian and I might never see each other

"I ...... "I don't know" is not the truth, and usually when the truth is difficult to accept, I will use the words "I don't know" to perfunctory.

Jin Qiulian's slightly pale face barely showed a little smile, looked at me resentfully, and said something that made my heart ache: "Sometimes, I really wish we could die on the battlefield together and not come down."

At this moment, I suddenly understood what she meant by what she said before, she was facilitating me and Lin Xue.

Of course, this is not her 'sexual' personality. I believe that if I can stay in North Korea, Jin Qiulian will fight with Lin Xue without giving up half a step. But I can't, Jin Qiulian understands me, and she knows that I will never give up my motherland for her, so ...... She had no choice but to quit.

At the same time, I also knew that I was wrong about Lin Xue, just now I thought that Lin Xue was not by my side to take care of me because I was worried about others gossiping. But now, I vaguely feel that Lin Xue and Jin Qiulian have reached some kind of tacit understanding, just like having a soul on the battlefield - Lin Xue also knows that I don't have much time to get along with Jin Qiulian, so I left this precious time for Jin Qiulian; But Jin Qiulian made a decision, and on the day I returned to China, she would completely 'hand' me over to Lin Xue......

I don't know if they are what I think they are, but I guess the truth is that eight or nine are not far from ten. I don't know if I should feel happy or helpless. Speaking of happiness, if you can get their hearts at the same time, no matter which man will feel happy. Speaking of helplessness, I still can't repay the feelings they gave me. Especially Jin Qiulian, I feel that I owe her a lot.

"Actually......" Looking at Jin Qiulian's helpless face, my head was hot, so I sighed and comforted her: "Maybe neither I nor the two of you will have results......"

"Why?" Before I finished speaking, Jin Qiulian looked at me in surprise and asked, "You mean that neither of us does you like either?" All those words you said on the battlefield are false? ”

After thinking about it, Jin Qiulian laughed miserably again: "I know, you think that we are all going to die, so the words you said on the battlefield are all lying to us, right?" We're both really stupid......"

"No, no...... I didn't mean that."

As soon as I said that, I regretted it, men are sometimes so stupid, and I meant to tell her that even if we didn't have the helplessness of our country, we wouldn't be able to have children together. And I can't be with Lin Xue for the same reason, so that she won't have any regrets and helplessness, right? Unexpectedly, Yu described Yu Hei......

"Why is that? What do you mean? ”

"This ...... You won't believe me if I say it, "I've got a big head."

"How do you know I won't believe it if you didn't say it?" Jin Qiulian chased after her: "If you have anything to say, just say it clearly, so that I can die of this heart"

"Don't ask......" I became impatient.

"No, you have to say it" Jin Qiulian continued to ask without giving way: "I don't care if you are the head of the regiment or not, you must give us an explanation, not only me, but also Lin Xue, why are you lying to us like this?" ”

"I didn't lie to you," I was a little annoyed.

"You didn't lie to us, so why? You just said that there will be no results with either of us."

"That's because I'm sixty years later," I called out to Jin Qiulian on the shoulders of Jin Qiulian, "Can you believe it?" I'm sixty years older than you."

"What? What did you say? "Jin Qiulian's head couldn't turn at all, and she looked at me in a daze.

"I don't believe it, do you?" now that I had already said it, I simply shook it with her: "Don't you think I can know a lot of things in advance?" For example, I know which battle was fought when, where it was fought, including the enemy's route, troops, etc., and I knew everything because these things had already happened to me, and it was all written in the book."

In fact, most of the information I got came from the Internet, but if I wanted to talk to Jin Qiulian about computers, the Internet, I was afraid that she would faint on the spot......

"What are you talking about?" Jin Qiulian looked at me stunned for a while, looked at me in disbelief and said, "Even if it...... Even if what you say is true, what does it have to do with us? ”

I smiled helplessly and replied, "I am not the person at this time, if I marry one of you and have children, sixty years later he will be sixty years old, and I will only be twenty-three years old." What shall I call him? Son? Or grandpa? ”

The idea came from a science fiction film I watched in modern times, forgetting the title, which also traveled through time and space. There, a warning to the protagonist who is going back to the past: Don't touch any 'woman', or there is a good chance that your son will become his grandfather......

Jin Qiulian 'touched' my forehead, and after making sure that I didn't have a fever, she smiled bitterly and replied coldly: "Actually, you don't need to make such an excuse at all. Don't worry, Jin Qiulian will never pester you again in the future."

As he spoke, he turned around and walked out of the room without looking back, and closed the door fiercely.

Hearing the faint crying outside the 'door', I couldn't help but smash my head hard, I didn't even know what I said, and I was dizzy......
