"Recruit eggs!" I was stunned when the instructor turned around and yelled at me.

It took me a while to realize that he was calling me, and I hurried up to follow. Recruit egg, am I still a recruit egg? There was only a wry smile in my heart.

"Why are you stunned*......" The instructor said angrily to me: "I'm telling you, stay for a while and let me behave normally and smartly, understand?" ”

Be normal and smart? I really don't understand this, am I not normal and smart?

But when I thought about it, I still answered "yes" in my mouth.

No way, what can you do if you have been a regiment commander for so many years? Who made me wear it on an unknown creep again!

I was taken to a bungalow like a prisoner, and I soon realized that this was the infirmary, as I noticed that there were several men in white coats and a few wounded warriors bandaged here.

"It's him......" A doctor at the table next to the door, looking at the papers, glanced at me through a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

"That's him!" The instructor replied, squinting at me as he spoke, not understanding what he meant.

"Sit!" The doctor motioned for me to sit down, and flipped through the papers in my hand again, and I had a vague sense that it was a report or something about me.

"What's the name!" The doctor asked without raising his eyes.

"Cui Wei!" I replied.

That's what the soldiers called me last night, and I think this time I was attached to a guy with the same name and surname!

"Origin?" The doctor asked again.

Now I was stunned, with the same name and surname, it is impossible to have the same origin and address!

"Origin!" Seeing that I didn't answer, the doctor then looked up at me" and then asked, "Do you remember where you are from?" Or do you remember how you got hurt? ”

I shook my head blankly, and then I realized why the instructor wanted me to behave normally and smartly.

The doctor stood up and walked behind me and pressed my hand against the back of my head, "A tingling pain made me avoid the conditioned back, and that's when I knew I was really hurt."

"Typical amnesia!" The doctor said in a matter-of-fact manner: "This symptom often occurs after the brain is violently shaken, so he doesn't remember you or his comrades in the same class, and sometimes he has violent tendencies!" ”

Well, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after listening to the doctor's diagnosis, at least I didn't have to explain it to others myself or be mistaken as crazy.

The doctor walked back and sat down, picked up the pen and wrote something, and said, "It is recommended not to be confined again, otherwise it is very likely that the condition will worsen!" ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart, if it weren't for my "amnesia*......", this confinement would still be closed!

"Doctor Xie!" The instructor looked at me with a little pity and said, "Does that mean that he is going to go back to his hometown?" ”

"Originally, he wanted to be in such a condition!" Doctor Xie replied: "However, the higher authorities have issued a new document, and if it does not seriously affect the combat effectiveness, you can stay in the army and continue training!" So ......"

"Hmm!" Although the instructor's face was still cold, "But I still saw a hint of surprise in his eyes."

"Take some 'medicine' and go back*......" Dr. Xie continued, "It's best to rest for a few days and not train too hard to avoid new symptoms......"

I find myself liking doctors more and more!

"Instructor!" On the way back to the dormitory, I hurried a few steps to follow, and said with some apologies: "Sorry last night! I didn't mean to ......"

I said you kid...... "It's okay if I don't say it," and the instructor got angry: "Where did you learn those two hands?" I said, why are you so ruthless? Almost killed me, you know no*......"

"I, I don't know!" This is the best excuse for people with amnesia.

"Gotta get it!" The instructor smiled bitterly and shook his head: "But then again, if it weren't for the little skill in your hand, I would have kicked you back to my hometown!" ”

"Thank you, instructor!"

In fact, at this time, I don't know whether to thank him or hate him. Because, from the doctor's words just now, "I have a faint feeling that this journey will not be so smooth sailing, just like the last time."

Originally, according to my condition, I wanted to go back to my hometown, "Why do my superiors have new documents?" The purpose is obvious, and that is to increase the number of troops. The biggest and most tragic battles of this period "should be......

"Instructor!" Thinking of this, I couldn't help but follow again and asked, "What day is today?" ”

"Number Ten!" The instructor replied without looking back.

"I ......," I hesitated and continued, "what year?" ”

The instructor looked at me with his mouth wide open and stunned, and only after a while did he pause, and then told me word by word: "January 10th of 79!" ”

"January 10th, '79......" The instructor's answer was like a bomb exploding in my head, and I was right, there was only a little more than a month before the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, and we were still recruit......s, and so on, Vietnam would not send us recruits! Look at those recruits last night, it seems that they haven't even shot a gun!

But I quickly thought again: how not! During the war of self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam, our army was strategically attacked on two sides. In order to prevent them from attacking, our army also laid a large number of 'elite' troops on the northern front. This forced our army to invest a large number of new troops to attack Vietnam. I*Oh said that this soldier set out from his hometown to serve as a soldier, and he died in battle in just over a month, and it took more than ten days to reach the Sino-Vietnamese border!

Soldiers like him can be sent to battle, let alone soldiers like us who have been trained in the boot camp. It's no wonder that the higher authorities will issue any documents to relax the conditions.

"Why are you still stunned? It's here! The instructor interrupted my train of thought and said, "You are the blessing of Dr. Toxie, you will rest in the dormitory today and start training tomorrow!" Five kilometers ............ Don't run for now, and the rest of your training will continue as usual! ”

"Yes!" I answered, saluted the instructor, and returned to the dormitory. In fact, it was already evening, "and even now, I don't have a few minutes to train."

With the memory of last night, I found my 'bed' and sat down with my face in my hands.

As a journalist in modern times, I have interviewed some veterans who returned from the Vietnam War, and I know a little bit about the war.

According to the descriptions of the veterans, I know that the severity of this war is 'pressing' the Korean War. Although the total number of casualties was much smaller, from the beginning of the war to the withdrawal of our troops from Vietnam three weeks later, an average of 2 to 3,000 people were killed every day. Such a price is already a figure in today's modern military! And not only that, but after that, there will be a ten-year-long border confrontation, which is longer than the eight-year war of resistance against Japan!

With a sigh, he turned his head and saw a military uniform at the head of the bed. I flipped it over, "That's dirty!" Sweat and dirt were mixed together, and there was a lot of dirt that couldn't tell what it was forming a lump on the clothes. It's okay not to move, but when you move, it emits an unpleasant smell.

I rummaged through the 'bed' to find another uniform, but was soon disappointed that there was only one set. I think that's probably why this military uniform is so dirty and unwashed! Fortunately, I came out of the Korean battlefield, and the dead people have been in it, "What is this!"

But when I put it on with a hard scalp, I unconsciously feel itchy all over my body!

"Yo! It's out, huh? With a shout, the sweaty warriors swarmed into the dormitory.

But looking at the way they walked, some of them were limping, some of them were bumping their buttocks, and some of them were dragging their feet as if they were ossified...... One by one, they came in and leaned their guns on the gun rack, and they sat heavily on the 'bed' and wailed. Those who still have the strength pat their 'legs', and those who don't have the strength don't care about the sweat and lie on the 'bed', opening their mouths wide like dead fish and panting! Others took off their liberation shoes, and the soles of their feet were covered with blisters............

There was an unpleasant smell of sweat and feet in the dormitory, but compared to the smell of the tunnels on the battlefields in Korea, "it was still much better."

"I said Cui Wei!" A big man took off his hat and fanned it, and shouted at me: "Today is a bargain for you, if I knew that I would toss like this today" I'd rather stay in the confinement room! ”

"That's it!" Another soldier lying on the 'bed' hummed weakly: "Let people run five kilometers with a rock, what kind of physical training is this?" Cheng wants to torture the dead! ”

"Hey! Comrades ............" A soldier who was as thin as a monkey stood up from the 'bed' and asked with some concern: "You say, is this going to war?" Why don't the instructors toss us so much? ”

"Even if we don't fight, we have to train like this!" A soldier poured a glass of water for himself, and he couldn't wait to pour it into his mouth regardless of whether it was hot or not, and after he was done, he continued a little breathlessly: "Haven't you heard what the instructor said? Sweat more before the war and shed less blood during the war. The harder we train now, the more we will be on the battlefield one day, and it will come in handy! ”

"Huh! I'm serious! The thin monkey frowned and said: "I didn't come to be a soldier to fight, I still want to arrange a good job for my superiors after demobilization, and find a good daughter-in-law to live the rest of my life!" ”

"Just like you, find a daughter-in-law and let her crush to death!"

As soon as there was a coax, the other warriors followed suit.

Listening to this, I understand a little, in modern times I seem to have heard that people in this era are very popular to be soldiers, and often a person who is a soldier will call a neighbor or friend to have a few drinks to celebrate. In order to arrange work after demobilization, there will be an iron rice bowl, and if you have made meritorious contributions, you can also "turn agriculture into non-farming".

Modern people may not have any thoughts about this "agricultural to non-agricultural hukou", in fact, I don't understand it very well, isn't it the transformation of agricultural hukou into non-agricultural hukou! I don't know what the good thing is, the older generation is just sharpening their heads and drilling into it for this.

No matter how ugly the young man is, as long as he is a non-agricultural hukou, the beautiful girl will rush to ask for it!

If they came to serve as soldiers for this reason, then can they go to the battlefield to fight? I couldn't help but frown.

"Cui Wei, why don't you speak?" The big man shouted at me, "Didn't you 'really' be majestic last night?" Holding a gun as if it were real, he subdued the instructor with one move! ”

"That's it......" The thin monkey was also energetic when he heard it, and looked at me with excited eyes and said: "Looking at the instructor today, I don't have the same arrogance as before!" ”

"You still have the face to say!" Everyone pointed at the thin monkey and laughed: "Have you forgotten the way you raised your hand and surrendered last night?" ”

"What are you laughing at?" The thin monkey blushed and defended with a thick neck: "People are sleeping soundly" As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a gun pointed at my head, aren't you afraid? ”

Where would everyone listen to the thin monkey's explanation, and laugh even louder.

"Comrade, I'm sorry!" I walked up to the thin monkey, generously stretched out my hand and said, "If I knew you were my own, I wouldn't have pointed my gun at you!" ”

"...... you" The thin monkey hesitated and stretched out his hand, looked at me for a while, and saw that I didn't seem to be joking, before asking, "You really don't recognize us?" ”

I looked at the soldiers around me helplessly, and felt a little sorry for them, after all, I occupied the bodies of their comrades, "Although I don't want this either."

"My name is Lin Shun! Comrades call me Junko! Skinny Monkey said.

"My name is Yang Songjian*......" The big man struggled to stand up and shook my hand.

"I'm Niu Wu Haiguo*......" The soldier who drank the water said seriously: "I'm the squad leader!" ”

"My name is Al Ziri, from the Yi nationality in Sichuan!" The soldier who was lying on the 'bed' said jokingly: "I can be regarded as your good brother, usually we are at the end of the five kilometers, and we have a companion......

With a coax, the warriors burst into laughter again.

That's when I noticed a soldier who hadn't said a word since he walked into the dormitory, and hadn't seen him smile. He looked very young" only seventeen or eighteen years old, but there was a maturity on his pale face that was very disproportionate to his age!

"Oh! His name is Li Shui 'Bo'! Wu Haiguo, the squad leader, tugged at the corner of my clothes and whispered, "I heard that it was an overseas Chinese in Vietnam, and he joined the army after being driven over by the Vietnamese, and when he came, he didn't say a word!" ”

"Hmm!" Listening to this, I couldn't help but glance at Li Shui'bo' more, and found that his fingers were slender and white, and he should have rarely done farm work, thinking that he should be a child from a good family. Such a child should have been a very sunny young man, but I don't know why he is so ruthless now.

"Shhhh......hhh

The soldiers were still tired and tired just now, but as soon as they heard the whistle, they all came to their senses, and they got up from the bed and rushed out of the room. Junzi was even more invited to go out, "while walking, he shouted in his mouth: "Go, eat!" If it's late, just scrape the bottom of the pot *......"

Later, I found out that it was not as exaggerated as Junko said, and there was still something to eat, "It's just that the fighters have been hungry and panicked after a day of training." This can be seen from the wolf-like way they look at the things on the plate. I was the only one who ate slowly...... and I twisted the yellow noodles in the bowl with my chopsticks, as if I was eating this thing in the confinement room, but it was too dark to see what it looked like.

The taste is really not good, it is as hard as iron wire, and the yellow one seems to be made of 'jade' rice noodles. The dish was only pickles, and I couldn't figure out what it was made of after looking at it for a long time. Maybe it's a turnip, and some of it looks like a cabbage head...... and the taste is much worse than the kimchi on the Korean battlefield, and it's so salty that people can't stand it. From this point of view, it seems that North Korea is better. So I wondered how the people who make these dishes do it, even if they don't know how to cook, they can put less salt!

I later learned that it was intentional to 'make' the dish so salty. Junko said, it's good to be so salty! Pick a little bit and it goes with a big bite of rice! This is not? Such a big bowl of noodles, just such a small lump of pickles will do!

Since then, I've hated Junko because he uses the word "tuo" when describing pickles, and the pickles are also black, so much so that every time I see pickles at dinner, I taste them.

This made me realize that life at this time was still very difficult, and after ten years of turmoil, the living conditions may be even more difficult than during the period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea. At least at that time, those of us soldiers who returned to the motherland from the Korean battlefield had no problem eating a few bowls of rice and a few side dishes.

But now, ......, I slowly stuffed these 'jade' rice noodles into my mouth, which made my cheeks sore and painful, and I only thought in my mind, the social status of soldiers in this era is very high, and they all eat these, so what do the common people eat?

I can't help but think of the experience my parents told me at the dinner table when I was a child, my mother had to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables to satisfy my hunger when I was pregnant with my brother, and I wanted to drink a bowl of porridge after giving birth, but my father ran around to borrow rice, but ran away and the whole village did not borrow it! And a lot of things, like a big pot of rice or something......

When my mother gave birth to my brother, it was almost now! When I was a child, I didn't take these words too seriously, because when I was sensible, I was already worry-free, and I didn't understand their hardships at all. Looking back now, it's hard to imagine how they came over and pulled the kids up!

I couldn't help but think of my family, and suddenly I had a strong 'desire' in my heart to go home and see how my parents and family were doing! But I know that I can't find them, and they may still be running around, and I don't know where in China!

"What's wrong?" Junko fiercely stuffed the 'jade' rice noodles into her mouth, and looked at me suspiciously.

"Oh! Nothing......" I realized that I already had tears in my eyes, and hurriedly lowered my head to hide them.

"I'm homesick!" Alziri's words slowed down the movements of the warriors.

"Who wouldn't want to!" Junko swallowed a mouthful of noodles fiercely, and said in a daze, "I've grown so big, and I've never been away from home for so long!" It's been more than a month! ”

I smiled helplessly, I haven't been away from home for more than a month, and it's been almost three and a half years now! And whether you can go back or not, and how to go back is still a question!
