At 10 o'clock in the morning of the next day, the traffic boat of the school headquarters quietly picked up the 13 instructors who were "injured in the line of duty" and the company and platoon commander of the enlisted student regiment. An Yi, who hadn't slept all night, returned to the command bunker after assigning the task and fell asleep, and the large-scale exercise training that was originally planned to start today had to be postponed.

Before lunch, An Yi, who was in a daze, was woken up by the brothers, and when he came to the grass hut, he had to put down his rice bowl as soon as he picked up his rice bowl: the transportation boat of the school headquarters docked at the dock again.

Under the nervous gaze of 75 engineer cadets, the two unsmiling military judges strode up the embankment and opened the folder to announce the important decision of the school headquarters: Everything that happened from last night to the early hours of the morning is listed as a military secret, and from the moment it is announced, no one will be allowed to leak or discuss it, and those who violate it will be severely punished!

After the military judge read out the decision to turn around and leave, An Yi and Zhang Tianyi let out a long breath of turbidity, knowing that this matter was the same as they predicted, it was a family scandal that they were embarrassed to spread outside, and it would not be mentioned again until now. The thirteen chiefs who were beaten in vain were nothing, because they themselves felt that they were guilty, plus An Yi had good cigarettes and good food to greet him warmly, and he made amends one by one, and the heartache of regretting his mistake deeply touched the hearts of every accident victim, plus this is not a personal feud but a public matter, and three of them have long had a relationship with An Yi, so there is no need for everyone to take it to heart.

The six main officials of the school headquarters are not so chic, the decision was made by them, no one expected such a fiasco, if the old face is not good-looking, the prestige of the instructors will also be deeply hit, although the second district team of the engineer brigade is conscientious and performs well, but the honor of dozens of new eggs is far less precious than the face of the officials, simply do not reward or punish, keep your mouth shut, and it is best to treat it as if nothing happened.

The next morning, the officers and men of the 2nd District Team began to devote themselves to intense training, and the subjects of the training made the members deeply regretful: Within two days, all the trenches, bunkers and other facilities dug were filled in!

The team members began to be very reluctant, watching the first work of their lives was destroyed, few people felt good, but after An Yi's ideological education, everyone expressed their understanding and earnestly implemented: because this is not their own territory but the people's territory, since we dug up, we should restore it before leaving, otherwise I'm sorry for the villagers, if the wind blows and the wind and rain causes the soil to be loose and on the verge of collapse, it just so happens that the children in the village come in and frolic There are three long and two short, how can we bear it?

Two days later, this area of 5,000 square meters basically returned to its original appearance, and seventy-five brothers moved to the grass hut by the stream where the wind was leaking everywhere.

Seeing this, An Yi, who was queuing in the team, stuffed his rice bowl into the hands of the brothers next to him and hurried to greet him: "Fourth brother, so many brothers are here, is there something wrong?" ”

Lin Xudong snorted and then shook his head: "Xiao Yi, you can do it!" If I don't come, you won't say hello to me when you leave, will you? ”

"What do you mean by that?" An Yi asked puzzled.

Lin Xudong laughed dryly, and pointed to the filled ground and a circle of new soil at the foot of the mountain: "What are you doing if you don't plan to fill in?" And said to leave it to me, huh! ”

"Haha! Fourth brother, you misunderstood! ”

An Yi stepped forward and pulled him to the entrance of the filled trench: "First of all, I want to say that filling in is what we should do, this is the responsibility of the soldiers, but it is not that we will leave immediately after filling it up, so far, we have not received a notice from our superiors." Secondly, this fortification is completely an experimental object, due to the lack of building materials, there is no strength at all, it can be used as a temporary position, but it is not possible as a permanent fortification, only a heavy rain or a few days of continuous drizzle, this fortification can not be used. However, if the fourth brother wants to build such a fortification by himself, it is very simple, and the younger brother can draw a drawing for the fourth brother in only half a day, and it is more reasonable and scientific than the one that has been filled. ”

Lin Xudong was deflated: "That's it...... You're really not going to leave right away? ”

"How is it possible to leave right away? Unbelief...... Lao Zhang, Jianguang, come over here. ”

An Yi and the others came to their side and said solemnly: "The fourth brother and the villagers thought we were leaving, I explained that they didn't believe it, you two help me tell me, did I hide it from them?" ”

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "I am leaving, but I will not leave today, but we have not received any orders yet, and it is estimated that it will take three or five days or even longer to leave." ”

"If we leave, we will also greet the villagers in advance." Huang Jianguang said honestly.

Lin Xudong breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile returned to his face: "It's the eldest brother who misunderstood, I'm sorry brothers, haha!" I really thought that you would leave quietly tonight, so the village decided to get together for a glass of wine before all the brothers left, and at this moment I am afraid that the banquet is ready, and the village has prepared a small gift for each brother, which is not a tribute, haha! Because you are all our good brothers, and what you have done since you entered the city deserves our respect......"

"Report to the Acting District Captain: The 'Nanyang' traffic ship is heading towards us and is expected to dock at the dock within three minutes." The sentinel's report interrupted Lin Xudong's words.

An Yi returned the salute: "I know, go back!" ”

"Yes!"

"Fourth brother, I'm sorry, the younger brother was greeted on the dock." After An Yi finished speaking, he turned to Zhang Tianyi: "You go with me, Jianguang, you are in charge for the time being." ”

Lin Xudong shook his head helplessly, and led his people to the embankment to wait by the wooden bridge, and saw An Yi and the two salute the two chiefs on the boat on the dock, one of the middle-aged chiefs said a few words, and the two quickly nodded and ran up, and the two chiefs on the boat also jumped off the boat and followed.

An Yi and the others did not stop when they passed in front of Lin Xudong and others, and when they ran to the front of the grass hut, they blew the whistle, and the soldiers who were eating and eating put down their rice bowls and quickly formed a team.

The middle-aged chief came to the front of the team, nodded after listening to An Yi's report, and announced loudly to everyone: "Emergency order: The second district team of the fourth engineer brigade must all withdraw to the school headquarters before eight o'clock in the evening of this day, and wait for the next order!" Brethren, I give you ten minutes to prepare, and when the ten minutes are up, you will be ready to pull! ”

"Yes!"

An Yi ran forward from the front of the team, and the division of labor for each group of brothers to prepare for the retreat was orderly and concise, so that the two commanders who came to give the order nodded frequently. An Yi gave an order, and the brothers quickly dispersed, and in less than ten minutes, everyone packed their backpacks, and even the two marching pots, which were still hot, were firmly fixed on the wooden frame and carried on the backs of the two big men.

"Stand upright, turn left! March! ”

The neat team walked towards the embankment, An Yi whispered two sentences to Zhang Tianyi and trotted in front of the middle-aged chief, and after saluting, he whispered, and the chief glanced at the dozens of young men at the head of the wooden bridge, and nodded in agreement.

An Yi strode up to Lin Xudong and explained apologetically: "Fourth brother, I didn't expect the order to come so quickly, if you hadn't been watching from the side, the younger brother would not be able to tell if he has a hundred mouths, alas! Being a soldier, that's it, I don't know when to go where and how long, and I will get used to it slowly. The younger brother didn't know when he would have time to come back to visit the villagers, but the younger brother would always remember the affection of the old patriarch, the fourth brother and all the villagers. Apologize to the old patriarch for me, the little brother didn't dare to disobey the military order, and he took his leave! ”

An Yi saluted solemnly, looked at Lin Xudong with red eyes for a while, and knew that this eldest brother had already paid his feelings to him, An Yi didn't say anything more and resolutely turned around and left, catching up with the line and waiting to get on the boat. An Yi didn't look back for a few minutes of waiting, he was worried about seeing that sad face, and when he boarded the steamboat and turned to look at the wooden bridge at Xikou, he found that there was no one left. An Yi sighed heavily, as if saying to himself: Goodbye, Lin Village!

"An Yi, those young men just now are from Lin Village, right?" The middle-aged instructor walked up to An Yi and asked kindly.

"Yes, sir." An Yi replied.

"As far as I know, Lin Cun has always been fierce and vigilant, never allowing any army to enter their territory, for decades every political axe has been a deep headache for them but helpless, because in addition to the tough village rules, the taxes they should pay are never short, Lin Village has never been against the political axe, and there is no riot or gathering crowds to make trouble, and there is no political inclination, it can be said that this is an extremely closed small world, but just now I saw that you had a good relationship when you said goodbye to them, I can see the regret and reluctance on their faces clearly, and you have only been stationed here for more than ten days, how can you establish such a deep relationship with them? I'm very curious, can you tell me? The chief smiled expectantly.

An Yi smiled bitterly: "I can't tell you clearly, this world is very wonderful, just like love at first sight between men and women is not uncommon, there are also similar emotions between men, which is called love at first sight." Sir, this is just a student's superficial opinion, and if what he said is wrong, please correct it. ”

"What a first sight! Ha ha...... You can say that again! An Yi, can we have a good discussion with each other when we have time in the future? The middle-aged elder looked at An Yi with interest.

"Yes!" An Yi straightened his chest and looked solemn.

At this time, the engineer at the stern of the ship shouted, "What's going on?" What's going on with so many fishing boats catching up? An Yi walked through the gap to the back of the ship, and saw more than a dozen familiar fishing boats chasing quickly, one by one familiar figures were desperately rocking the boat to catch up, and the one person standing majestically on the boat was none other than Lin Xudong, who was deeply affectionate, and the distance between them was less than fifty meters.

When Lin Xudong saw An Yi appear, he immediately raised his hand high, and his face was still with that confident and amiable smile.

An Yi's nose was sour, his eyes were hazy, he raised his head and shouted: "Fourth brother, go back!" The little brother must go to see you again, you still owe the little brother a meal of wine! ”

Lin Xudong didn't answer, he put down his hand and stood firmly at the bow of the boat until he followed to the dock of the military academy, he ignored the questions and obstructions of the guards, and loudly commanded more than a dozen strong men of the boat to carry a cage of fat pigs, chickens and ducks, a basket of sausages and souvenirs, and he jumped on the boat without looking back, leading more than a dozen bows up the river after everything was finished.

All the officers and soldiers on the dock stood silently, only the screams of pigs and chickens and ducks sounded from time to time, Zhang Tianyi left An Yi, who was standing by the water, ran back a few steps and gave a loud order:

"The second district team assembled...... Attention! Salute to the fathers and villagers of Lin Village-"
