Chapter 1902: Visitation (Part II)
Seeing Le Yiqin, Liu Cuigang's spirit was exceptionally good, and his eyes flashed with sparks of joy, he felt that lying down like this, like a girl, would make the guy who had been competing with him look down on, or rather, the supreme of men, he didn't want to show his weak side in front of his brothers and comrades-in-arms, so he struggled to sit up.
Le Yiqin, who has known Liu Cuigang for many years, naturally understood his thoughts, and laughed: "Come on, Cuigang, what can you do in front of me, are you a wounded, I don't mind lying down, I just came in a hurry, I didn't bring any gifts, don't mind, when you are discharged from the hospital, I will treat you to a good meal!" β
Seeing that Liu Cuigang was still about to sit up, he shook his head and said, "You stubborn donkey, save face," he said, and stepped forward to help Liu Cuigang, and when he put his hand on his shoulder, he suddenly shook like a lightning strike, and his face became unusually pale.
Le Yiqin's hand touched Liu Cuigang's left arm, under the hospital gown, the empty sleeve, as if he couldn't believe it, afraid that he would have a delusion, he pinched it hard, and the cruel but real feeling told him that it was empty.
Le Yiqin asked in a trembling voice, "Cuigang, your left arm?" β
Liu Cuigang smiled casually and replied: "Yiqin, don't make a fuss, cut it off, when I woke up, I found that I was missing an arm, sad is sad, but after a while, I figured it out, it's better than losing my life!" β
Le Yiqin recovered from the shock and said angrily: "Cuigang, do you have to amputate your leg?" Is there no better way? I went to the dean, why should I amputate my leg? β
Liu Cuigang shook his head and said, "Yiqin, don't blame the doctor, the surgical plan was approved by the division commander, in order to save his life." Fortunately, I didn't lose a leg, and I walked without delay! β
Le Yiqin sighed deeply in his heart, he knew Liu Cuigang, don't look at him on the surface, pretending to be casual, in fact, for a pilot who loves to fly fighters and soar in the blue sky. Losing an arm means saying goodbye to the blue sky, and you can only look at your former comrades, drive the war eagle, and fight in the sky. The pain in my heart cannot be replaced by anyone.
A warrior. Lost the ability to go into battle to kill enemies. Like an eagle that has broken its wings and a tiger that has lost its talons, what does it mean for a man who sees battle as the whole of his life?
Le Yiqin understands the character of his brother and comrade-in-arms, strong and persistent, and knows his love for soaring in the blue sky. Can Cuigang accept such a cruel truth?
In Le Yiqin's heart, an ominous premonition suddenly rose, and he was afraid that Liu Cui had just embarked on a desperate path. This feeling of fear gripped his heart tightly and suffocated him so much that he couldn't breathe.
Le Yiqin suddenly said impulsively, "Cuigang, good brother, you must hold on, at the beginning, the division commander selected the two of us from our students, you are my brother and comrade-in-arms, I don't want to leave me alone in the future years of fighting!" Promise me, you must hold on, and when you are healed, you will come to the Southern Flying Group and be my deputy, although you can't fly into the blue sky, we two brothers, we will still fight devils together! β
Liu Cuigang's pale face bloomed with a tired smile, his eyes flashed, but the light of emotion, he gasped, calmed down for a while, and said: "Yiqin, where do you want to go, I thought I wouldn't be able to think about it, take a gun and hit my head, don't worry, I'm not so stupid, the little devil and the old man haven't finished fighting, how can I be willing to die, you guy is too underestimate me!" β
Le Yiqin wiped the corners of his eyes, and said with some embarrassment: "It's good if you don't have it, I know that my brother Le Yiqin is not a bad seed, what is a little arm, he still commands the battle, let's be together, I have peace of mind, there are things on the ground with you, I just have to fight in the sky!" β
Liu Cuigang smiled faintly and said jokingly: "Yiqin, help me lie down, this body is really fucking fucked, I sat for less than five minutes, I couldn't hold on, I have to let you see the joke!" β
With the help of Le Yiqin, Liu Cui just lay on the hospital bed and closed his eyes, and after a while, when he opened his eyes, Le Yiqin found that there seemed to be more perseverance and determination in his brother's eyes, as well as a trace of imperceptible loss and faint sadness, which can only be felt by Le Yiqin, who understands him.
Liu Cuigang said leisurely: "Yiqin, I thought about it, I can't fly into the sky, just don't do anything with the aviation, isn't there a shortage of instructors in our Dingbian Aviation School, after being injured and discharged from the hospital, I applied to the division commander, after so many years of fighting, there are always experiences and lessons, and I teach them to the students, even if I haven't left our aviation troops, I can see the plane every day, it's enough, as for going to you, brother, do you think it's possible?" β
Le Yiqin's eyes widened, and he shouted: "How is it impossible, our brothers are tied together, whether it is a little devil or an old man, it is not one, it can be an invincible opponent in Watanabe Asia, if you think that you are not used to being my deputy, just do it right, I will be your deputy, just fight the war, to worry, the province will be pestering me all day long, and I will go to the division commander in a while!" β
The corners of Liu Cuigang's mouth pulled up a smile, he felt the sincerity of his brother, groped for the hand holding Le Yiqin with his right hand, and said: "Yiqin, confused, it's not like that, our two brothers have known each other too well, they are both people who don't admit defeat, they are two stubborn donkeys, they have fought for so many years, they all have their own set, don't you say, in a trough, you can't tie two donkeys, get together, every day there is a fight, don't talk about delaying big things, but let your subordinates see jokes, do you say this reason?" β
"Papapa" A few applause came from the door of the ward, Le Yiqin and Liu Cuigang turned their heads to see that it was the division commander Tang Qiuli, the division commander Zhao Yuhe, the division commander chief of staff, and Wang Jun, the chief of staff of the Outer Mongolia Frontier Army and the deputy chief of staff of the Outer Mongolia Campaign Command.
Le Yiqin hurriedly got up and said, "When did the division commander come, and so did these nurses, I don't know if I was notified!" β
Tang Qiuli held down Liu Cuigang, who was struggling to sit up, and said: "I have been here for a few minutes, and I have heard the conversation between the two of you, I am here to tell SΓΉ Cuigang as a teacher, you want to be an instructor at Dingbian Aviation School, I don't approve it, the temple of Dingbian Aviation School is too small, I can't let go of your god, and when I am discharged from the hospital, the Northern Flight Group is still yours, and I will settle accounts if I don't do it well!" β
Liu Cuigang was very surprised, and he gasped with excitement and said, "Commander, but my injury? The flying troops don't need a cripple! β
Tang Qiuli's face turned pale and said, "Isn't it just that you can't fly to the sky, what's the matter, you can't command a war on the ground?" Our team is getting bigger and bigger, we can't let the commander go into battle in person every time, Yiqin, this is also a warning to you, don't forget everything as soon as you hear about the war, you are the supreme commander of a unit, not a soldier who charges into battle, you must learn the ability to command the overall situation, and your ass can sit on the bench! β
Le Yiqin "hehe" smirked for a while, and said self-deprecatingly: "Actually, I also want to learn from you, to be a general's demeanor, to strategize, to win thousands of miles away, but I can't learn it, as soon as I hear the movement of the plane, this heart is as uncomfortable as a cat scratching, I have to go to the sky to go around a few times, otherwise, I can't eat, I can't sleep, this is the root of the disease, it is difficult to treat!" Gotcha, Cui Gang, the teacher said, the matter of our brothers building a team has been blown, and in the future, we will still do our own things! β
Several people in the ward laughed, even Liu Cuigang's face was covered with a faint flush, his spirit was surprisingly good, hearing the laughter, a little nurse hurriedly came in, glared and waved his hand, and when he saw several soldiers in the ward, when he saw the shining stars on the epaulettes, he stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, Tang Qiuli put away his smile and said: "Let's go, just rest, I don't see the little nurse is not satisfied!" β
Coming out of Liu Cuigang's ward, several people went to Sun Zhenbang's ward not far away, Sun Zhenbang's injuries were much better than Liu Cuigang's, and he was already able to get out of bed and move by himself with the support of the nurse.
Tang Qiuli could see his thoughts at a glance, and said first: "Zhenbang, if the injury heals quickly, I'll rest assured!" Then, he said jokingly: "Okay, my Tang Qiu is not good for this year, a hospital, lying with my two major generals, almost died, it seems that the bullets of the Soviet army are more powerful than the bullets of the Japanese army, and the general who specifically bites me!" β
Zhao Yuhe, Wang Jun and Le Yiqin all laughed, but Sun Zhenbang did not laugh, and said: "Division commander, I review, the battle of the Gehe River was not fought well, and the troops suffered great losses, it is my responsibility, I thought that I could make up for my mistakes on the battlefield, but I didn't expect that a shell from Lao Maozi sent me to the hospital, it's really unlucky!" β
Tang Qiuli waved his hand and said: "Zhenbang, I don't want to listen to your review, this is meaningless, you have already sat at the best, Liu Hongzhang sent a telegram saying that without the fortifications you built and the several communication trenches dug before the launch of the Battle of the Sesagoge River, the two brigades directly under the corps would have to suffer a big loss, so where are your achievements!" β
"No one can deny it! I would like to tell you one thing, the deployment of the campaign has been completed, the troops participating in the battle are basically in place, and the ambush and encirclement of the troops of the Transcaucasian Military District of the Soviet Union will be set at 5:30 a.m. on 27 September, and after this battle, there will be at least 10 years of stability in Outer Mongolia! β
Sun Zhenbang's eyes lit up, pushed away the nurse who was supporting him, tried to stand upright, and said: "Division commander, my injuries have healed, Sun Zhenbang, commander of the Outer Mongolian Border Guards, asks the division commander for approval to participate in this battle, even if it is to command a regiment!" β
