Roast chicken, or a wandering boy chicken. My favorite, I couldn't have been born in the most difficult era of that country, and when I was a child, not to mention that eating chicken, even if I could eat enough, it was a luxury.

I reached out and grabbed the fat chicken leg and tore it off and brought it to my mouth.

"Platoon commander, platoon commander. Wake up platoon leader. A voice called out to me. In an instant, the chicken legs and roast chicken all disappeared into the air, and my dream was shattered.

"What. It's not dawn yet. "I still miss the roast chicken in my dream, looked at the dark sky outside the car, and said angrily.

It was Zhang Xiufeng, the first squad leader, who called me, don't listen to this guy's name, there is a show in his name, he has nothing to do with Xiuqi. If he grows hair, he will probably be beaten to death as a bear. The big black face was round and black, and his head was white with white teeth, and a head with a spinning head, I didn't know at the time, but now I wonder if he was of African descent in retrospect. Because of his blackness, we all call him Lao Hei.

"Platoon commander, something is wrong. The sentry is gone, and the dog is gone. One of the soldiers in our squad got up to pee and found it. Lao Hei said anxiously.

I was a little dazed just now, and I woke up in an instant, and this mission was to give food to the outpost in the Kara Pass. My right eyelid began to jump since I took this task, and I didn't go to the village or store before the third day I came out, and the sentry was gone, and the dog was gone.

"When did you find out?" I asked, belting up.

"Just now, when I found out that the sentry was missing, he came to call me, and I came to call you after looking around and not finding it." Old****.

"Hurry up and blow the whistle roll call to see if there are any others missing." I hurriedly let the old black blow the whistle. I looked at my watch, and it was half past four in the morning. It is the time when people sleep hot. It's 1983. Twenty years ago, we had a hard fight with the country opposite. Until now, both sides have talked about peace. It's still quite tense at the border.

The whistle sounded. Simultaneous swearing rang out from five liberation trucks. Then came the sound of Kuroko shouting and gathering.

The clutter quickly died down, followed by the sound of the count.

Heizi and the second squad leader, the third squad leader ran over: "It's Ding Shengli from the third squad, the backpack is still there, and the gun and dog are gone." ”

"What." My head "buzzed", and in an instant, two words "defection" appeared in the minds of the three of us at the same time, otherwise how could even the dog disappear together.

Lao Hei glanced at the three of us and said the last thing we wanted to hear: "Don't this kid run over there." ”

I pulled them to the back of a truck and said, "I got up at two o'clock in the middle of the night to check the sentry once, and it was the dog standing guard in the third shift at that time. This kid starts running as soon as he gets off the post. At most, it will take an hour and a half. The second and third classes stayed to watch the car, and Lao Hei took your soldiers and me to chase after him, and he must catch up with this B. ”

The third squad leader grabbed my arm and said, "I'll go too." ”

I shook off his arm and said, "Go back and take care of your soldiers, especially those who usually have a good relationship with Ding Shengli." People can't chase it back, and they can't find the grave when they cry. In my absence, the second squad leader was in charge. With that, I climbed into the car and grabbed my satchel and water bottle.

"Platoon commander." The voice of the third squad leader was a little choked, he was a fourth-year soldier, and this year was the key to becoming a volunteer. I know the conditions of his family, a child in the countryside of northern Shaanxi, who is absolutely poor, and really belongs to the kind of people who can't eat if they are not soldiers. Becoming a volunteer is almost all his life ideals.

I patted the third squad leader on the shoulder and said, "Take care of the car and your soldiers." People can't be found. We can't eat and walk around. ”

The third squad leader squatted on the ground and cried with a whimper. Because his ideals in life were shattered. Maybe he'll go to a court-martial, and be sentenced to a few years. Then he was sent to an unknown prison for a few years, and after being released from prison, he was expelled from the army, and he was discriminated against.

I ignored him, and no one could chase him back. I'm going to be worse than him, not better than him, because I'm the leader of the team.

"If we don't come back for six hours, the second squad leader, you will call by radio and report the incident here to the company, so that they can hurry up to support." I finally gave me a command. This is the longest I can conceal this, and we are scheduled to arrive at Shibu Chin Station at noon.

I led Kuroko's squad of eight men heavily armed, all armed with Type 5 or 6 semi-automatic rifles. I was holding a new Type 1 automatic rifle. This gun is a new type of automatic rifle, which can be single-shot, point-fired and burst-fired, and is now only distributed by platoon-level cadres.

This is the famous Banku Nokun no man's land, to go north through the no man's land and then over the Tianshan Mountains to Xinjiang, Ding Shengli will definitely not go there. To the west is the way we are going, and this kid will definitely not be able to outrun the wheels of a car. Don't even bother to the east, that's where we came, there are many soldiers along the way, and a person with a dog carrying a gun will definitely be detained. So he had to go south, over the gentle slopes that had just reached the elevation of the snow line, and then through the disputed primeval forest, which was the most likely escape route.

This kid hasn't been gone for long now, so I still hope to catch this kid, so that I can explain it anyway when I go back. The army is the army, and the people who were captured did not cause a big incident, and they have been explained from top to bottom, and they can almost fool the past, after all, no one wants to be more serious with their own soldiers, and if they really want to stab them, how can they have a leadership responsibility.

The cold moonlight shone on the hills of the plateau, and we had to climb to the top of the high mountain in front of us as soon as possible. The mountains in this area are all overlapping Hengduan Mountains and Zongduan Mountains, and they turn from side to side like the backs of fish. That mountain is really steep, and a slope of 60 degrees can be called a gentle slope.

There were nine of us, three meters apart, advancing in parallel. I didn't dare to scatter people too much, and if there were any more casualties, the prison door would be completely open to me.

Soon the traces were discovered. A row of branches was newly broken, and the height of the broken was just the height of a person. Animals in general do not cause such marks.

Then Kuroko found a footprint in a place where the soil was soft and there was no vegetation, which was a human footprint. The footprints clearly showed that the man was wearing the same big-toed shoes as we were. This shows that we are looking in the right direction, and I am beginning to see hope.

Since he walked here, I was sure to catch him, walking alone on the plateau is actually very tiring, not only physically tired but also psychologically tired, the kind of world is vast, there is no creature in front of me, not even a tree or a dwarf, I feel like I have been abandoned by the world, and people will have a feeling of collapse after walking for a long time.

In the past, there were old car soldiers, and the car broke down and could not be repaired in the middle of the road, and one person walked to the military station. It was already crazy to wait for the people to walk to the station, it was a great oppression from nature. It feels as if you are a grain of sand in the sea, and you feel that no matter how you go, you will never reach the end.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaobao, the spearhead who was walking in front, raised his hand. We all crouched down and aimed our guns in front of us. Wu Xiaobao waved at me, and I ran over with the sunspot cat.

Wu Xiaobao pointed to the ground, and Heizi and I were stupid at first glance. On the sand on the ground, there are two rows of footprints scattered in front and back. One line is the footprints of the same big-toed shoes as we are, and the other is a huge footprint without shoes. On that footprint, his feet were the size of two of our normal feet.

Kuroko looked at me, and I looked at Kuroko. Then we all looked at the footprints on the ground, which we had never seen before. And looking at the depth of the footprints, this guy's weight must have far exceeded ours.

Heizi waved his hand at the Tibetan soldier Gava in his squad and called him over softly.

Gawa is a Tibetan soldier who enlisted in Aba in Sichuan, grew up in the mountains and served as a lama for two years. So he knew Tibetan, but he didn't know Chinese characters.

Gava didn't speak Chinese fluently, but he saw the footprints on the ground. The three of us understood the two words that popped out of our mouths: man-bear.

"What is a man-bear?" Kuroko asked.

"A man-bear is something that looks like a man and a bear, and in the old forests of the snow-capped mountains, tigers are afraid of this thing." Gava said with a pale face.

"You've seen it?" I asked again.

"I haven't seen it, this thing eats people, and everyone I've seen it has been eaten. But one of our village escaped, and he saw it. Gava said.

"Isn't this thing a cannibal? How could that man still escape? I asked curiously.

"Because it was a she-bear who captured him. The she-bear caught him borrowing seeds. ”

Kuroko sneered: "Borrowed seeds? ”

"He is the best hunter in our village, and he dares to go to the old forest that others dare not go. One year he went into the mountains and didn't come out. More than a year later, he ran out of the forest with ****. It took half a year to lie in bed before he recovered.

He said that he went into the woods that year and met a man-bear. The bulging **** on her chest showed that she was a mother, and he was scared. But before he could shoot, the she-bear had already run in front of him. Later he said it was lightning fast.

Before he could react, he was stunned by a slap. When he woke up, he was already in a cave. The she-bear was gnawing on an animal's thigh, blood dripping down her mouth. He looked to the side and was startled, and there was actually a tiger lying next to him. This she-bear's gnawing is actually the thigh of a tiger. Gava said and compared the painting, with a serious expression on her face.

"Alright, let's rest for a while." I saw that Gawa, who usually doesn't like to talk, actually has a tendency to tell stories, and I rushed for more than two hours all the way. The lack of itching on the plateau no longer allows the soldiers to continue to chase like this, so just rest here for a while, and listen to the story of this Gava by the way.

Listening to my order to rest, Kuroko set up a guard post and ran back to Gava and asked, "Go on." What happened later, how did the she-bear borrow the seeds? "Hey, you can't blame him for being so gossipy, (to be continued.) )
