Chapter 122: Night on the Prairie
How edible the big head is, people have finally seen it today.
With more than a dozen dishes in one meal, half a bottle of red wine and three bowls of dumplings, this kid ate all by himself.
When it was time to clean up after eating, his head slid directly to the ground, and then he lay there holding his stomach and humming.
A group of people just laughed, but no one said anything bad about him.
In the afternoon, a group of people were fine, the big head lay on the bed and slept, the other six people played cards around the table, the stove was burning very brightly, and the dormitory was not very cold in the leaky room.
Xiaobai has no spirit as always, and he doesn't know if the wolf will hibernate in winter.
After dinner, Big Head, who had rested all afternoon, went to duty with a gun as the first sentry, while the others still played cards in the dormitory, but with more instant noodles and coke.
A bowl of instant noodles and a bottle of Coke is a hearty Chinese New Year's Eve snack for Class 13, which is really a bit sad.
There are no other games in the class, and when I turn on the TV, it is a snowflake screen, and the angry Lao Yue muttered more than once that he wanted to sponsor a new TV.
The wind on the grassland was "whirring", and there was a sound of "tearing, tearing, pulling" at the door, and then I heard the big head say: "Squad leader, the couplets are blowing down." ”
"It's okay, leave it alone, keep an eye on the situation outside."
Aru shouted outside, then threw out four preserved eggs, and the card table was hot.
Lao Yue, Alu and Brother Jun formed a backbone team of officers, Zhang Junbao, Brain Gate, and Kai Kai formed a veteran team, both sides were full of firepower, and there were no comrades on the table!
Fought until half past eight, Kai Kai went out and replaced the big head, and then the big head joined the battle with an excited face.
The joints of the big head's hands are unusually thick, and one hand can hold the entire deck of cards, and the whole person is lying on the stool.
His hands were red from the cold holding a military kettle filled with hot water, and the rope of the kettle was hanging around his neck.
When a group of people played until half past nine, it was already time to turn off the lights, and the people who had played cards for a day did not have much interest, and shouted to disband and go to bed.
Zhang Junbao was lying on the bed boredly looking at the gray cement roof above his head, a dim light outside the window shone in through the window, and the next sentry was him.
I don't know when I fell asleep, but when I opened my eyes again, Kai Kai was standing by his bed with a cold breath.
"Get up, sentry."
"Got it, wait for me a while."
Kai Kai nodded and went out, Zhang Junbao lifted the quilt, and then quietly got dressed and got out of bed.
"Junbao, put on your regular coat, it's too cold outside."
Brother Jun was not asleep yet, he was half-lying on the bed looking at him, his two dark eyes were bright.
Zhang Junbao glanced around the room and found that Lao Yue and Alu were not sleeping, one was playing a flashlight, and the other was chatting with his daughter-in-law with a mobile phone.
Zhang Junbao just nodded lightly, didn't say much, got dressed and walked out of the dormitory.
On the night of the grassland, the cold wind is like a knife, with the cold wind and frost and the ice ballast floating in the distance, hitting the body and making a "rustling" sound.
Kai Kai was standing in the sentry tower, stomping his feet vigilantly to scan the movements around him, and when he saw Zhang Junbao come out, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Kaikai, what's wrong, right?"
"No, pay attention to yourself, the gun is given to you."
Zhang Junbao took the gun in Kai Kai's hand, and then put on the old ammunition bag with four empty magazines stuck in it, which was scary.
The really useful thing is the spur pinned to the waist, and in close combat, the knife is much easier to use than the gun.
Kai Kai trotted back to the dormitory with a shiver, Zhang Junbao walked into the sentry tower surrounded by this half of the plank on three sides, his calves were not so cold, and he could still stand up when he stomped his feet.
The dim light is behind him, which is also the welfare of the thirteenth class for the New Year, usually the power supply here is difficult, people can save and cherish all the materials that can be used.
Sometimes Zhang Junbao wondered if he had entered the wrong unit, and the treatment of the thirteenth squad and the treatment of the company was simply worse than the level of thirty years.
The white high-rise buildings, the clean large glass windows, and the barracks full of the atmosphere of the army seem to be the places that the soldiers yearn for.
Look at the old dormitories of Class 13 and the three red brick and cement tile houses, which are obviously products of more than 20 years ago, with air leaks everywhere, old doors and windows, and even sleeping beds are products that the company has eliminated a generation.
What a grievance!
He hadn't been to the company before, and Zhang Junbao felt that it was like that, but after he went, he felt unbalanced.
He is not a saint, what kind of consciousness is high, selfless dedication and other spiritual chicken soup, at most he is a real fool who fools around, and now even the recruit knows what the soldier is for: to be promoted and make a fortune!
At night, as the time gets later and later, the wind on the grassland grows stronger.
In the dark night, I can't see my fingers.
The sky was also dark, and there was not a single star in sight, nor the shadow of the moon.
The small courtyard of Class 13 is like a lonely island in a dark world, and Zhang Junbao is the soldier guarding the island.
He didn't know what the sea was like, and he hadn't been there, but he once thought about being a people's navy and then driving a warship in the sea, which must be very handsome.
It's a pity that he put on the army's uniform and waved goodbye to the navy, like two parallel lines, and there was no intersection again.
The Yankees called Guam an unsinkable aircraft carrier, and Zhang Junbao did not dare to express any opinion on this statement, after all, it was just miscellaneous news, and he was just a small soldier.
However, the small courtyard of Class 13 is an unsinkable island on the grassland, and he is involved in the herdsmen's settlements dozens of kilometers away, and also involves the troops stationed hundreds of kilometers away.
Thinking of those honest uncles on the grassland, Zhang Junbao's face showed a smile, and he felt that the corners of his mouth were a little stiff, and he knew that he was about to be frozen.
Hurriedly stomping his feet in the small sentry tower and walking around a few times, Zhang Junbao continued to think of those uncles from the grassland.
And, of course, the fat lamb, which is Xiaobai's favorite.
There are also Gesang flowers on the grassland, little sister Tana, I don't know how the little girl is now?
In the quiet night, Zhang Junbao stood alone in the sentry tower and smiled, I don't know when, the dormitory door behind him opened.
Zhang Junbao woke up from his fantasy at once, then clenched the butt of the rifle with his left hand, touched the military thorn on his waist with his right hand, and turned to look behind him.
"What's your kid's name? He heard it all in the house, can he still stand guard properly? ”
"Huh?" Zhang Junbao looked behind him in the dim light, the military brother was wearing a military coat and staring at him with a black face, and there were two people standing at the door, Lao Yue and Brain Gate, it seemed that people had not slept yet.
What's going on?
Zhang Junbao was a little confused.
