Chapter 5 Drivers

As soon as it was dark the next night, Zhao Yongxin really came with two cars full of camouflage on the top, and as soon as the cars stopped in front of the house, more than a dozen soldiers who had already prepared climbed up. After I got into the driver's passenger compartment of one of the cars in front of me, the car turned around and drove back.

"Hello comrade!" As soon as I got in the car, I handed the driver a cigarette, and the driver looked at me in surprise when he saw that I could speak Korean, and took the cigarette without saying a word, and pinned it to his ear. There was an awkward silence in the cab, and although it was dark and I couldn't see the expression on his face, I believed it would not be a good one.

I couldn't help muttering in my heart, secretly saying that Zhao Yongxin had offended these drivers, could it be that he didn't give him anything? According to Zhao Yongxin, the attitude of the People's Army towards the volunteers is still very friendly, and in any case, we are also here to help them fight.

"Where to go?" After a while, the driver asked.

"Well, this ......" I took out the map, and finally found a big position under the bumps and dim light of the car: "Drive in the direction of Anxingli, I will tell you when you get there." ”

"What's your name, comrade?"

"You've been driving for years, haven't you?"

……

I lit a match and lit a cigarette in boredom, and I couldn't help but feel ashamed of my poor driving skills as I watched the driver expertly shift gears on the steering wheel.

But this driver is also cool, no matter how I ask, he always keeps a straight face and doesn't speak. But the habit I brought with me as a journalist is to be good at breaking silence and stirring up topics, so I was unwilling to continue to talk about it, and finally ...... When I asked his grandmother if she had a big man, he slammed on the brakes and the car squeaked to a halt. The huge inertia generated by the emergency stop almost hit my head on the windshield in front of me. At the same time, a car in the back also stopped, and everyone shouted behind them without knowing what was happening.

"Hey, Comrade Volunteers!" He turned to me and said, "Do you think we're going out for a ride?" If you do this again, we will just go back, I still have three children and an old lady at home who are hungry, and I don't want to accompany you to die like this! ”

It's not that serious, I think it's a bit exaggerated to look at this benevolent brother's serious look, but I soon realized that the truth is much more serious than I thought.

When the car was on the road again, I noticed that the driver was very cautious, and as he was driving, he looked up at the still gray sky from time to time, or turned his ears to listen carefully for a while, and sometimes even turned off the engine in order to hear more clearly, and the headlights were only turned on for a while on dangerous roads or in places where there was no moonlight at the foot of the mountain.

I also seemed to understand why the driver didn't like to talk, and what it meant by the unkind expression on his face when I first met him. Because for them, the car drivers, every departure represents a life-and-death decision.

At this time, the driver suddenly turned off the lights, and then turned the car at the foot of the mountain at the fastest speed, and the engine was still "...... and suddenly" quietly, and the driver was ready to drive again at any time.

That's when I heard a faint rumbling sound from the sky, apparently an airplane approaching here. The louder and louder noise made my heart tense for a while, and I couldn't help but look at the handle of the car door, thinking that if this was discovered by enemy planes, the only way to survive might be to jump out of the car and escape.

The driver seemed to see through my thoughts, and snorted softly, a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly, there was a "take-off" sound, and a flare exploded in the sky nearby, and the surroundings were immediately pale. But fortunately, the roof of the car was full of branches, and the car parked at the foot of the hill looked down from the plane to see a clump of grass. The plane spun around twice and flew away without finding anything.

The driver breathed a sigh of relief and put the car back on the road.

"You hitchhikers, if you are found, you can jump out of the car and flee for your life!" The driver smiled bitterly and finally spoke: "But we can't drive, we have to drive such a big car to race with the plane, and few will survive once we are discovered." ”

I couldn't help but be silent, thinking that I did have the idea of jumping out of the car and escaping for my life just now, but it was reasonable to jump out of the car to escape, it was impossible for everyone to stay in the car and accompany such a big target to die.

But it's really painful to think about it, we can at least see the enemy, and we can grab a gun and fight the enemy. But there is no other way to avoid the plane while driving a car, and the most painful thing is for the car and the material on the car, and they can't jump out of the car until the last moment......

The car drove on the bumpy road in this way, although there were two more reconnaissance encounters with enemy planes, but the driver avoided the past without danger, which made me have to admire the driver's driving skills, which should not be said to be technical, it can be called art. Thinking of the two times I drove, it was really a heaven and an earth.

The car finally arrived at its destination in the second half of the night, and although it was a little slower, the journey was relatively smooth. As soon as I jumped out of the car, I took the soldiers to the mountains to dig up the equipment, and as soon as I dug up the equipment, I didn't care about anything, grabbed a few magazines and grenades, and stuffed them into the bullet pouches.

Then we rushed to the car, and the driver dropped a sentence before we came, we must rush back to Seoul before dawn, otherwise we will never go back.

Fortunately, the material equipment was nailed in wooden boxes in advance, and it took less than half an hour for a dozen fighters to load them all onto the car.

"It's okay, let's go!" I climbed into the cab again and threw the driver a small bag of canned food and biscuits, and he didn't speak, but started the car while spreading the biscuits and stuffing them into his mouth and biting them.

The two cars, which did not turn on their headlights, staggered one after the other and drove towards the hazy night.
