The martyrs I am responsible for are soldiers from the direction of Datong, Shanxi, which is more than 300 kilometers away from Beijing...... In modern times, it's only a five- or six-hour drive, but the roads are poor, and the jeep broke down on the way, so we arrived at our first destination in the early hours of the next morning.

Of course, we had to spend the night in the jeep, which was already July, but it was still quite cold at night, especially since the jeep was still open-topped...... This is for the convenience of combat, one of the advantages of the convertible is that it can quickly jump out of the car to react when encountering the enemy, and the other is that it can shoot guns in the car, and even add a machine gun or recoilless gun if necessary.

It's just that this has made a few of us miserable, the driver and the guard take turns driving in front, and Zhang Fan and I are shivering in the back...... Fortunately, the driver later pulled out a raincoat from the trunk to block out some of the cold, and at the same time, it also gave me the opportunity to hug Zhang Fan all night.

But I don't know if it was because it was too cold or because my mood was heavy, I didn't take advantage of Zhang Fan that night, I just hid in my raincoat and hugged each other to keep warm...... It also gave me another feeling that I couldn't put into words, and I haven't experienced it in modern times.

Later, when I thought about it, I felt that it should be because Zhang Fan and I had no sex until this time, and it was precisely because there was no sex that the two sides would have more mystery about each other, and this mystery would be like a catalyst to make each other's feelings continue to heat up, and now it seems that both parties are used to each other's existence.

But I think the reason why the relationship between me and Zhang Fan has grown so naturally and yet silently. It actually has a lot to do with Zhang Fan's character. If it's Chen Yiyi...... Her approach is passionate, direct, and bold. Maybe it's a character cultivated on the battlefield...... Many things on the battlefield can't be slowed down like in the peace shijie, because if you don't seize the opportunity in time on the battlefield, it may mean eternal loss.

Where will Chen Yiyi be at this time? I wonder if she found her sister, or maybe she's on her way back to China...... I admit that I am a little inattentive, thinking about another woman when I hold one woman in my arms, but I don't know weishenme either...... I don't feel guilty at all.

Finally half-asleep...... There was a dawn in the sky, and as soon as the sun came out, not to mention whether there was really heat sprinkled on us, my heart warmed up when I saw such a fiery red light.

At this time, the driver Xiao Li stopped the car, rubbed his hands and said with a snort: "Battalion commander." It's too cold, let's rest here! I'm going to ask for directions......"

"Hmm!" I nodded, and then I noticed that there were already a few farmers working in the fields by the roadside.

Farmers in the countryside tend to work earlier in the summer because the sun is too hot during the day, so some people prefer to get up early to work during the sun.

At this time, Zhang Fan suddenly realized that the sky was already bright, and hurriedly broke free from my arms. I smiled and put on my raincoat for her, then got out of the car and jumped on the road.

"Battalion commander!" The guard brought me two packets of compressed biscuits and said, "Eat something, it will be warmer!" ”

"Hmm!" I took the biscuit and threw one for Zhang Fan.

The guard Xiao Zhang looked very experienced, and took advantage of this time to find some dead branches and grass on the side of the road. Then I took some diesel fuel out of the trunk and poured some on it...... Military vehicles that are going to go to the battlefield generally choose diesel, on the one hand, because of the high horsepower of diesel engines. On the other hand, diesel is not as flammable and explosive as gasoline...... This is directly related to its ability to survive on the battlefield. It is precisely for this reason that the tanks on the battlefield will be changed from the common use of gasoline engines in World War II to modern diesel engines.

The two of us couldn't stand the temptation of the flames, and even Zhang Fan got out of the car, gathered around the fire while eating biscuits to keep warm, and then Xiao Zhang put the kettle into the fire...... But after a while, I drank hot water.

"It's coming!" Soon the driver joined us in the fire, and while he was roasting the fire, he said: "I heard from the fellow, it is just a few miles ahead, but the strange thing is that it ...... When I asked where Chen Zhongqi's (pseudonym) home was, the fellow asked if we were here to arrest people! ”

"Do we look like we're here to arrest someone?" Everyone burst out laughing.

"What do you mean?" I couldn't help asking: "Fellow weishenme would ask that?" ”

"This ......," Xiao Li replied, "I don't know either...... Maybe it's scary to look at us! ”

This is indeed a jeep with four soldiers, all with pistols pinned to their waists, and the guards are still holding 56 charges...... This is indeed a bit scary in the eyes of ordinary people.

But I didn't stop there, I got up and ran to the other side, and shouted at the peasants who were working in the fields: "Fellow, why do you think we are arresting? ”

"Chen Zhongqi's son is a deserter!" The villager replied, "It's all over the village...... You can't catch anyone, his son isn't at home! ”

"What?" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, how could I be a deserter when I was a martyr? Could it be that the superiors made a mistake? Or the villagers are mistaken.

When I asked again, the fellow replied: "I don't know very well, you can ask Chen Zhongqi yourself, he is in the third room in the row of the road in the village!" ”

"Get in the car!" As soon as I turned around, I jumped into the jeep and urged, Xiao Li and Xiao Zhang jumped into the car skillfully, and when Zhang Fan came up and sat down, he stepped on the accelerator and went straight to the village.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Fan asked suspiciously.

I shook my head and didn't speak, and I didn't know what was going on.

Soon I found Chen Zhongqi's house according to the location pointed out by the villager, and when I knocked on the door, it was an old farmer with a torn coat on his body, as if he had just gotten up......

"You are ......," the old farmer's lips trembled.

"Hello uncle!" I said, "You are Chen Zhongqi!" ”

"Yes!" The old farmer nodded with a wooden expression.

"Uncle!" I said, "We are Chen Zhonghe's comrades-in-arms, and we are here to see your ......."

"Hmm!" The old farmer couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "You ...... Is it really my son's comrade-in-arms? ”

"Yes!" I said, "Your son has a mole on his face......"

Actually, I only found out about this by looking at the photos.

"Come in, please come in......," the old farmer immediately welcomed us into the house.

Although it was early in the morning, it was still dark in the house, so it was not until the old farmer lit the oil lamp that we noticed an old woman with a sick face struggling to sit up.

She coughed and asked with difficulty, "You guys...... Really a neutralized comrade-in-arms? ”

"Yes, aunt!" I nodded, and I almost burst into tears when I looked at my home.

"Then can you tell me......" said the old woman, gasping for breath, "where has my house and gone?" Are you a deserter? ”

"Weishenme, you're going to think he's a deserter?" I asked.

"Alas!" The old peasant's wrinkled face was huddled into a pile, and he said with a sad face: "There has been no news since the war, I went to the county to ask a few times, but there was no follow-up...... It is said that ...... 'missing'. What is 'missing'...... I don't really understand, and the county's explanation just can't be found. So the word spread in the village, saying that my family had run away and had become a deserter! His mother fell ill in a fit of rage...... Homosexuals! I don't believe that my family and I will be a deserter, where do you say my family and what the hell is going on? ”

I couldn't hold back my tears anymore, and I didn't know what to do with him.

"Uncle!" Zhang Fan choked up and said: "Zhonghe didn't become a deserter, he was brave in battle!" Killed a lot of Yue devils, and made meritorious contributions! ”

"Really!" The old farmer couldn't help crying with joy when he heard this, and happily sat at the head of the bed and helped the old woman and said, "Wife, do you hear? We didn't do deserters in our family, and he made meritorious contributions! We are at home and did not do deserters! ”

"Comrade!" The old woman, who seemed to be much calmer than the old peasant, saw that we didn't look right, and asked us again: "How ......can you neutralize him?"

There was silence in the room, I wiped my tears, gritted my teeth and said, "Uncle and aunt...... Neutralize him...... Sacrificed! We're here to ...... this time."

"No, no......" the old woman interrupted me, "you lie to me, and he will not sacrifice in my family...... He was a deserter, he must have been a deserter...... You must be mistaken! ”

The old farmer let out a long sigh, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have deepened a lot.

I wanted to say something, but I couldn't say anything as if something was plugged in my throat...... Obviously, they would rather believe that their son had become a deserter and lived in this world than hear the news that their son had died. From this point of view, we don't know whether it is good or bad to justify the hero in this way.

Because we couldn't stand the atmosphere, we left the pension and ran out of the old farmer's house as if we were running away, so much so that the old farmer forgot to put a handprint on the receipt...... It's not okay to not stamp a handprint or sign a name, we can't deal with the superiors, and the superiors will think that the money has not been delivered and let us swallow it! So I had no choice, so I walked back and let the old farmer put a handprint!

When we got back to the jeep, we realized that it was not an easy task...... Especially since these soldiers were once my comrades-in-arms, and may even be my soldiers!

However, such a thing could not be delayed, because we did not know if the same misunderstanding would happen to other martyrs, so although it was not easy, we still rushed to the next destination with a heavy heart. (To be continued......)
