Within three days, the Beiping Party Central Committee replied to the telegram, refusing to accept his resignation and appointing Chen Zikun as chairman of the Jiangdong Military and Political Committee and commander of the Jiangdong Provincial Military Region.

The old subordinates who were originally worried and uneasy have all made up their minds, *** Sure enough, Chen Zikun can continue to be his king of Jiangdong, and these old brothers can enjoy their old age in peace.

Wu Changqing and Ye Xuefeng led the troops to continue southward, and the soldiers pointed to the great Shanghai that Tang Enbo was holding onto, and the periphery of Shanghai was full of reinforced concrete fortifications, and there was industrial backing and shipping support, and the Kuomintang was clamoring that it could hold on for ten years, and this battle was bound to be extremely bloody.

But these are not what Chen Zikun and others need to care about, after years of war, the vitality of the people has been greatly damaged, and now the major event of changing the dynasty has been completed, and it is time to recuperate.

The provincial capital set up a military management committee to maintain order, Zeng Jiao was retained as the deputy director of the military management committee, and a public security bureau was established, and the first director turned out to be Xu Tingge.

A telegram was sent from Hong Kong that the Chen family was safe and sound, and they were preparing to take a flight back to Jiangdong.

Chen Zikun fell to the ground with a stone in his heart, except for his eldest son Chen Bei, the whole family was saved in this turbulent change.

……

In May, in a certain artillery position of the Fourth Field Army of the People's Liberation Army in Hankou, Hubei, the soldiers were busy carrying the shell boxes, and the big bolt had no other ability, that is, he had great strength, and he could do it in one trip, and the speed was faster than others.

"Xiao Beiping, are you tired?" The old squad leader asked with a smile as he held a cigarette pouch and pot.

"Not tired." Da Xuan replied happily, he is the only city soldier in the company, and it is said that he can't pee in the same pot as these Guanwai men who grew up eating big stubble porridge, but Xue Dazhuan, who has suffered from snacks, does not have the slickness and squeamishness of city people at all, and quickly integrates into the group.

Although the food in the army is not good enough, but it is enough, after eating the military food for two months, the big bolt feels that the physique is better than before, the mood is better, singing and marching all day long, wiping the cannons, and listening to the female soldiers of the art troupe talking about Allegro, every day is like the New Year.

After the cannon is in place, the shelling begins, one by one the shells fly to Wuchang on the other side of the Yangtze River, the big bolt is responsible for loading, holding a polished shell into the gun chamber, the gunner pulls the cannon rope, the cannon is ejected, deafening, the big bolt opens his mouth wide like a veteran to prevent the eardrum from being injured.

As the shelling continued, the position was filled with gunsmoke and ears, relying on gestures and flags to command, and with each round of shells, the ground trembled like an earthquake.

Suddenly, a strange whistling sound came, and the experienced veterans suddenly changed color, and the big bolt saw the old squad leader open his mouth and shouted something to himself, and then a burst of anger struck, and he didn't know anything.

The enemy's artillery fire hit the positions of our troops, several cannons were damaged, more than a dozen soldiers were killed, and many more were wounded.

"I'm going to die...... "The big bolt felt a chill in his heart.

He was only in his early twenties, and before he married his daughter-in-law, he was about to die in a distant foreign land, and he couldn't see his father and mother before he died, but he didn't feel sad at all, and he didn't even feel pain, he staggered to his feet, forced his intestines back into his belly, pulled a backpack strap and tightened it, went to hold a cannonball, stumbled towards the cannon, and used his last strength to fill the cannonball into the barrel.

The comrades-in-arms were all stunned, no one expected that Xiao Beiping would be such a tough guy who was not afraid of death, and he still fought when his intestines were bleeding, "Hygienist!" The old squad leader screamed and rushed forward.

The bolt pulled the cannon rope, and the cannon was pushed backwards violently by the recoil, and the shells whistled out.

The hygienist and his comrades-in-arms rushed up, bandaged the wound with a big bolt with all hands and feet, and carried it down on a stretcher.

Now that the medical and health conditions of the People's Liberation Army are far better than before, the wounded soldiers were quickly treated, and a Japanese military doctor helped the big bolt to stitch up the wound, telling his comrades-in-arms that the wounded were fine, as long as they were prevented from becoming infected.

The old squad leader then put his mind at ease, picked up the cigarette pouch and pot and talked to the acquaintances of the field hospital about the heroic deeds of the big bolt, and it happened that the military newspaper reporter was looking for news clues nearby, and when he heard their conversation, his ears suddenly pricked up, and he came over with a smile and said: "Comrade, I want to interview you, can I?" ”

When Xue Dazhuan woke up again, he was already lying in the big hospital in Hankou, the white sheets, the air full of the smell of disinfectant water, and the angels in white who came and went made him breathe a sigh of relief, and he couldn't die.

A group of leaders who did not have armed belts came to inspect the hospital accompanied by the leaders of the hospital, and asked one from bed to bed to another, where the people were from, which troops, and how they were injured. ”

The big bolt smiled honestly, embarrassed to speak.

A bespectacled chief next to him said, "Little comrade, what spirit inspired you to make such a heroic move at that time?" Give us nagging. ”

The big bolt said: "I didn't think about anything else, I felt that it was too worthless to be an artillery soldier who didn't fire a cannon once, and I had to fire a cannon before I died." ”

The chiefs burst into laughter.

The bolt scratched his head, wondering if he had said something wrong.

The white-faced and thick-eyebrow chief also smiled lightly and said one word: "Okay." ”

When the chiefs left, the big bolt asked the patient next to him: "Who is that?" ”

"You don't know Mr. Lin, you are still a soldier of Siye." The patient said disdainfully.

"Mom, it's Commander-in-Chief Lin." The big plug grows its mouth and can be stuffed with an egg.

Two days later, the Political Department awarded a medal of combat heroes to Da Shu, and a reporter from the military newspaper came to take a picture of him again, and Da Shuan asked if he could send the medal and photos to his home, and the reporter agreed: "You can rest assured, our logistics work is absolutely in place, and your family must know about your meritorious service and receiving awards, and maybe there is a grand award certificate hanging on the door." ”

The big bolt became a hero, but because of the injury, he was stranded in the hospital and could not go south with the army, Siye had already conquered the important town of Wuhan and marched to Hunan, and the comrades-in-arms were discharged from the hospital one by one, seeing that only one big bolt was left.

He was anxious, but the doctor just didn't give a discharge order, and said that it was too late for you to be discharged from the hospital now, and the army was thousands of miles a day, and when you chased to Hunan, the army might arrive on Hainan Island, where would you chase it?

The big bolt said that I have to go too, I can't live in the hospital for the rest of my life.

That being said, he really didn't have the courage to chase the troops, the world was so big, if he couldn't catch up, it would be over, so he helped the hospital do chores every day, sweeping the floor, sprinkling water, carrying stretchers or something.

A little nurse named Yue Wen fell in love with the big bolt, the two went from eyebrows to each other gifts, and later went to Jianghan Road together, the big bolt used the allowance to buy a notebook and a pen for Yue Wen, and Yue Wen gave the big bolt a handkerchief embroidered with a name.

In the middle of summer, the grass and trees on the Hankou River beach are luxuriant, and the wildflowers are everywhere.

Da Bolt wrote a letter home, and the letter also included a photo of him and Yuwen in military uniforms.

The military postal system of the People's Liberation Army is very efficient, the letters are sent to Beiping City thousands of miles away through the Pinghan Railway, the postman pedals to the hair alley in Xuanwumen, liberated, the appearance of Beiping City has changed greatly, the stinky ditch has been filled, the road has been rebuilt, the people's government has paid money to help the poor households repair the houses, Baoqing's family is a military family, enjoy special care, people from the district have painted the walls with white white, paved new tiles, and arranged work for Baoqing, and served as a shift leader in the district transportation company.

The gate of the Xue family was repainted, and a sign was nailed to the door, with the words "military family" written on it, and a big red flower was hung.

"Baoqing's letter, your family's letter." The postman was an old acquaintance, and he called out at the door.

Xing'er hurriedly went out, wiped her apron twice with both hands, accepted the letter with trepidation, and asked, "Where did you send it?" ”

The postman said: "The stamp stamped with the military post was sent from Wuhan, and the good news letter written by the big bolt is accurate." ”

A few days ago, the district beat gongs and drums to send good news, saying that his son had made great contributions on the battlefield and became a combat hero, and the district rewarded a hundred catties of millet, and the whole family followed the light, and there was face wherever he went.

However, I heard that my son was honorably injured, and the mother did not secretly shed tears.

Xing'er was illiterate and didn't dare to open the letter, until Baoqing came back from work, so she asked her daughter to open the letter to read, Erbao read her brother's letter, and the whole family was happy.

Baoqing was silent for a long time, and said: "Marrying a Hankou girl, where will I live in the future, I don't think it's appropriate." ”

……

People come and go in the hospital, the chief comes especially much, not to see a doctor, but to talk to a female nurse about work, Wuhan is a big city, there are a lot of beautiful girls in the city, the military hospital is the army's own place, those old revolutionaries have been singles for half their lives, and suddenly see so many water spirit girls, just like Sun Monkey entered the Pan Tao Garden, and there is nothing to find a reason to turn around.

Although the chiefs are old, they are also old, rude, unhygienic, and swearing, and the nurses don't like it, especially a deputy military commander surnamed Wang, who is like a bandit, and everyone is afraid of him, and the nurses walk around when they hear his name.

Afraid of something, Deputy Commander Wang fell in love with Yuwen.

There was no ambiguity in the organization, the party committee of the academy talked to Yue Wen and asked her about her personal problems with concern, Yue Wen said that I am still young, and I don't think about personal problems now, and there is still a lot of revolutionary work to be done.

The comrades of the party committee said with a smile: "It's good that you have this idea, but you can't just patronize the revolution and ignore personal problems, you see so many old comrades who have been working in the revolution all their lives, and have been fighting horses for decades, and they have not started a family at the age of forty or fifty, and now the revolution is about to succeed, and New China is about to be established, and their life problems are also our tasks." ”

Yuwen bit her lip and didn't speak.

The comrades of the party committee said: "Deputy Army Commander Wang is very concerned about you, saying that you are conscientious and responsible, and that you are excellent in your work, and you also know that Deputy Army Commander Wang has a great temper, and he has never praised anyone, you are the first, and the organization feels that if you and Deputy Army Commander Wang form a revolutionary partner, it will also be an opportunity for you to learn and make progress personally." ”

Yue Wen said expressionlessly: "I already have someone in my heart." ”

"Who? No matter who it is, this is a political task! The comrades of the party committee sank their faces and lost their temper.

Yue Wen turned her head and left, crying behind her back, and the big bolt was very helpless when he knew it, he was just a big-headed soldier, how could he have the capital to fight with the deputy commander.

Yu Wen took out a scalpel and said, "If they force me again, I will die!" ”

Da Shuan gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go find the one surnamed Wang!" ”

It happened that Deputy Commander Wang was "recuperating" in the hospital, and Da Bolt came to the outside of the ** ward, and heard that Deputy Commander Wang was talking and laughing with the hospital leaders inside, and he spoke Beiping dialect very authentically.

He plucked up the courage to slam open the door and walk in.

The people inside were stunned for a moment.

Deputy Commander Wang is a rough man, dressed in a yellow military uniform, with a stubble beard, and his eyes are staring at Xue Dazhuan: "Who are you, you don't shout a report when you enter the door." ”

The hospital leader was a little embarrassed and said, "He is Xue Dazhuo." ”

Deputy Commander Wang said: "Oh, you are the object of Yue Wen, that Xue Dazhuan, boy, you are quite kind, dare to rob my daughter-in-law with Wang Dongliang." ”
