Chapter 68: Homecoming

Brother Guan was carried on the shoulders by several teenage students, looking at the arms waving below and smiling awkwardly, the wounds on his face were still wrapped in cotton cloth, making his smile look even more awkward, Brother Guan's chest and face were fine, but he was injured in the calf, the injury was not very serious, but he could not participate in the training, it happened that Zhao Xuan was in Lushun, the two signed a fake note, gave him a vacation, and asked him to follow the seriously injured back to Wendeng to visit relatives, shijiān is two months.

Several teenagers carried him through the sea of people, and countless enthusiastic people made the shy Brother Guan very cramped, but there was an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart" "The chapter of the novel is updated the fastest. The school yard was on the east side of the water city, and the people could not enter, so the young man put him at the door, clapped excitedly and shouted to him: "You are a hero, a good man!" ”

Brother Guan scratched his head, I don't know what to say, several soldiers came to help him in, walked through the inner wall inside the gate, there was a wide training ground inside, this afternoon happened to be méiyou training, the school field was divided into five courts, many soldiers in armor were chasing a kind of flat ball, the soldiers watching the battle in the court howled loudly, and the school field was noisy.

This kind of sport called rugby is also Guan Dadi's favorite, Jinzhou Zhouwéi is all wasteland, soldiers often use this kind of ball jinháng game I heard that it was also invented by Lord Chen, soldiers play shihou also wear armor, is a disguised training, but more popular than formal training.

He is not zhidào Chen Xin is also a half-ass, Chen Daren does not know the rules of rugby at all, so Chen Daren simplified it to holding the ball and rushing into the goal to score, the whole game méiyou too many skills, that is, the team with the brutal movement of rushing and rushing, and Guan Da Brother is one of the strongest soldiers. is often the main force on the field, and at this time, I can't help but have some itchy hands.

There is also a football sport. There are also many enthusiasts in the army, and Chen Xin promoted it in the army when he was in Wendeng. The sphere is first made of pig bladder as the shell, and then filled with some chicken feathers and duck feathers and sewn. The rules are similar to Keju, but with the addition of an offside rule, this rule will increase the amount of running on both sides, but it is a little inexplicable in the eyes of Brother Guan. Now I heard that this sport is also being carried out in Tunpu and schools.

The inevitable harsh hierarchy in the army, the boring years of training, and the corporal punishment and reprimands of the officers must have made the soldiers very stressful, and these campaigns were just the right way for them to vent. These ball games are extremely physically demanding. It is also the best way to cultivate competition and collective jingshén, Chen Xin naturally wants to vigorously promote it, but at present, it is only carried out in the army and a few vocational schools, and the rest of the tun households work all day long, and the nutrition is too much to play football.

No matter how itchy Brother Guan was, he couldn't join in at this time, and several soldiers helped him to the ambulance room in the southeast corner, where Brother Guan received a pair of crutches, and he only left one. Then the leader of the 4th battalion ambulance team led the military affairs department to report for duty.

The Military Affairs Department was located in Chen Xin's official office pángbiān, which was very wide, and after Brother Guan and others handed in the fake note, an officer pasted a piece of paper on the back of his waist card. Then a stamp was stamped that it was written that he would be able to stay in Wendeng and Dengzhou for two months.

The officer of the Military Affairs Department asked for the address of Brother Guan, and most of the wounded soldiers were from the dragoons of the fourth battalion. This thousand headquarters was changed from the first general of the peasants and soldiers, and came from the four tunpu. All in Weihai and Wendeng.

The officer arranged for them to live in a row of dormitories to the east, and then told them to spend a few days in Dengzhou. After the injury healed, he waited for Wendeng to send the heavy sand boat over, and took a tailwind boat back to Weihai, and Wendeng's wounded could also save 200 miles.

Five of the people in Guan's room were seriously injured in the leg, and the other seven were injured in the hand, or broken or fractured, and could not continue to serve. Although the instructor repeatedly said that Dengzhou Town would be responsible for their lives, they were still somewhat worried about the future, because they were all strong laborers in the family, and they would not be able to do heavy work in the future, which would affect the living standards of the family.

How long did they worry about it, and the deputy general manager who came back with the team brought the deputy director of the military affairs department, registered the waist number and name of the wounded soldiers one by one, and looked at the cultural level on the back of their waist cards, and then told them that they would be assigned posts within a month, and those with high cultural levels could enter the civil affairs system, including tunpu and schools, and serve as instructors, and those who were literate could give priority to business, and those who wanted to farm would be arranged by the tunpu for mutual assistance, and thirty taels of silver would be distributed to each person. The pension they originally paid can be withdrawn or continue to eat dividends.

The wounded soldiers were worried, and their interest immediately increased, talking and laughing loudly with each other, discussing whether to take the pension or not, the person from the Military Affairs Department came over and turned over the waist card of Brother Guan, and when he saw that it was the wounded visiting relatives, he left without saying a word, and Brother Guan hurriedly said: "Sir, my pension silver...... This one. ”

"Shime pension silver, you have to go back to the army to serve, the pension silver is only available for war deaths and wounded retirement." When the chief finished speaking coldly, he ignored him no more.

"What should I do with the silver?"

"Use Ziji's military badge to go to the quartermaster to get a pay ticket, and other wounded soldiers can also go to get it first." The chief méiyou turned around, he ziji was also a wounded soldier retreated, naturally he would not worship the wounded soldier like those students.

A few officers left quickly, and then there were trainers who came in to talk to them, these instructors were eloquent, but they didn't talk about the big truth, they just talked to them about the recent interesting things in Dengzhou, and the wounded soldiers listened to it with relish, and the two adults who had just seen it forgot to be out of the clouds.

Brother Guan thought to himself about ziji silver, he scratched his head, "What is the ticket?" ”……

"Your fourth battalion is stationed in Liaodong, and the military salary is only received when you return to Dengzhou." An officer of the Quartermaster Department took the waist card of Brother Guan and looked at it, "How many people in your thousand headquarters want to lead the army's salary?" ”

"I, I'm one."

The officer shook his head, "Don't come one by one, it's inconvenient for our Quartermaster Department to do the accounts, let the officers you lead the team back to count qingchu, and collect them according to the company." ”

Brother Guan didn't know how to say shime, since everyone else said so, he had to salute and leave, and walked out of the gate of the quartermaster department on crutches, he had always been in the field army, and he listened to the commander for everything. I have never been to this kind of yamen. There are two courtyards in the Quartermaster Division, and a large wooden sign hangs at the door of each room. There are some words written on it, and the shihou he came in is easy to find. It was only a passing guard who showed him the way to find it, but it turned out that Méiyou got his salary.

All departments in Dengzhou Town are busy with ziji affairs, and there are a lot of things to deal with after each war, and the deputy Qian who leads the team is constantly notified by various departments to check the situation, and Brother Guan only thinks that the people in this courtyard are so powerful, because he doesn't understand what they say.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Vice President Qian freed up Shijiān to count the people who were going to lead the army's salary. Brother Guan reported five taels, and the vice president went for more than half an hour before coming back, taking out a pile of papers and sending them to everyone.

Brother Guan looked at the papers. The wounded soldiers also looked at each other, obviously asking for silver, how did it become a pile of paper. The deputy Qian Zong said while sending a hair: "Everyone listen, these are salary tickets, you can exchange huàn cash silver at any branch of the Sihai Money Village, that quartermaster Jian yì you directly bring the salary ticket home, Ma Zidun and Wendeng Lao Camp have semicolons, and then go to redeem them when you get to difāng, so you don't have to take nàme more silver to hurry." ”

The wounded soldiers were relieved when they heard this. Brother Guan plans to redeem it at the semicolon in Dengzhou Shuicheng, and it is still comfortable to hold the silver. The vice president continued, "By the way, this ticket can be bought directly at those comprehensive stores. ”

"What about the other shops?" Brother Guan asked cautiously.

"Some are willing to take it. Some reluctant, this ticket has just come out, and Lao Tzu only asked for a long time before asking qingchu. I also went to the Shuicheng branch to try it, and it was indeed able to redeem huàn. "Mr. Qian complained a few words." However, the Quartermaster Department will not pit everyone, just bring your military cards to the shihou of huàn. After a while, give me the military badge and send it to the Military Affairs Department for dyeing and marking. ”

Brother Guan stood up on crutches and limped out of the gatehouse, and a neighbor behind him asked, "Big Guan, what are you running around again?" ”

"I'm going to exchange the silver for huàn first." Brother Guan replied, and then Ziji muttered in a low voice: "How can a piece of paper have silver and feel comfortable." ”……

Five days later, Brother Guan followed the first batch of wounded soldiers who returned to their hometowns to return to Wendeng No. 3 Tunpu, he took the return baggage boat from Dengzhou, and was warmly welcomed after disembarking in Weihai.

Wendeng Zhouwéi Tunbao is intensive, many people along the way set up artillery to welcome them, Huang Side this time to carry out a complete set of plans, he made a special trip to southern Liaoning, deployed a series of propaganda activities from Lushun to Denglai, Denglai people's feelings are all mobilized, after the wounded soldiers return home, there will be a wave of Jiannu prisoners' march, the route covers all the Tunpu and township dense areas, not only to enhance the people's morale, but also to those potential hostile elements to show Dengzhou Town's deterrent power.

Some of the family members of the Third Tunpu rushed to hear the letter, and they were informed, and when they saw Ziji's relatives, they all cried and laughed with joy.

The students of Wendeng Vocational School all went out, shouting loudly to welcome the wounded soldiers back to their hometowns, and a student team has been following, playing infantry jinháng songs with drums and brass flutes, Brother Guan heard this familiar tune, and couldn't help but be surprised that there were nàme drummers among these young people, he didn't zhidào Those vocational schools actually have military training, and beating the drum is the most basic training content, and their future www.biquge.info of Biqu Pavilion is much higher than that of farmers like Brother Guan.

The lively atmosphere infected Brother Guan, so that his feelings were also very high, and finally arrived near the gate of the third tunbao, but the popularity here was very low, only the tun chief led nearly 100 people to wait, and there were white huángsè round paper money floating everywhere on the roadside. Among the people behind the Tun Chief, many of them were still wearing white clothes, or wearing linen and filial piety.

Brother Guan's mood fell back, his third company is the third Tunpu as the main force, most of them are the first batch of peasant soldiers, this time in Fuzhou casualties are very heavy, there are more than 60 people killed, more than 30 seriously injured, plus some losses in the battle of Dengzhou, this 500 households of Tunpu vitality is greatly damaged.

Brother Guan got off the ox cart, some familiar neighbors came to talk affectionately, but there was always a kind of sadness, Brother Guan méiyou found his mother, and did not say much to the neighbors, limped forward, and when he walked past the Tun Chang, he only heard him say to the officer of the Military Affairs Department who sent the wounded soldiers, "My lord, can you recruit soldiers in the future...... Don't recruit people from a fort to a battalion, this death and wound are all from a fort, and our fort's performance appraisal this year is hanging, not to mention the morale of the people, all of them are very low. ”

"We have also noticed this, Yijing reported it to Lord Chen, and the Lord is discussing the strategy with the Mobilization Division......"

After listening to this, Brother Guan hurriedly walked to his alley, and the familiar street scene made him very excited, he rushed to the door and knocked on the door gently. (To be continued.) )
