"It's almost one o'clock in the morning, and the convoy should be arriving, right?" Gao Linhai, political commissar of the Third Division under the Field Army of the Qishan Military Region, had been waiting for a long time.

What made him wait for so long was that he hadn't rested late at night, so naturally there was only the urgent call that came in the afternoon, and the content on the urgency was very simple, but it was only a dozen sentences, but these few dozen sentences were enough for Gao Linhai not to rest, but to wait for so long in the middle of the night.

"The pass in the Weishan area guarded by your department, probably late tomorrow morning, there will be a team of convoys passing through the customs, the convoy needs to be checked by you in person, before it can be released, what is the specific gate, as long as you see the person in the photo in the personal information attached to the convoy, the name is Qi Li's town committee, you can let it go." ”

Gao Linhai thought about the contents of the emergency telegram that had been destroyed after he read it and memorized it in his mind, Gao Linhai couldn't help but say: "Qili Town Committee, I really don't know what kind of task I have, I can't even use my real name." ”

"But what is the task of this Qi Li, he has nothing to do with me, and he can't give me a salary increase if he cares about this. After Gao Linhai finished speaking, he felt that he thought that this stubble was purely superfluous, and then because the work at hand had been completed, Gao Linhai, who could only sit and wait in boredom, had a faint smoking addiction in his heart that began to itch again.

Gao Linhai looked around, and he was the only one in the room, huh...... Gao Linhai touched his pocket, he was addicted to smoking, and he couldn't control it as soon as he came up.

And just as Gao Linhai was about to take out the cigarette in his pocket, he heard the sound of a vehicle driving outside.

"This is coming?!"

At this time, the vehicles of the troops had already turned off, and Gao Linhai also deliberately chose the place, the room was on the side of the avenue of the city gate, when Gao Linhai carefully listened to the sound that it was indeed the engine of the vehicle, he knew that it must be the team that Gao Linhai was waiting for today.

Now that the convoy to wait for has arrived, what is he still doing here, and he can't get out in a hurry.

Which is more important, smoking addiction or task? Gao Linhai has an answer to this question, and needless to say, Gao Linhai has already walked out of the room quickly.

"You are the Qili Town Committee. ”

As soon as Gao Linhai came out of the room, he could see that there was a person on the small car in the middle of the three military vehicles, that person was under the light, Gao Linhai was not short-sighted, and he could see the person's appearance clearly at a glance, which was exactly the same as the person in the photo attached to the attachment attached to the previous emergency.

And when that person approached, took the five-star red gold badge from the hand of a cultivator who flew down, and activated the badge, Gao Linhai knew that there was nothing wrong with the person.

"Okay, it's been decided, the comrades of the 57th Army have worked hard, I have already informed it, and I will settle here tonight. When Gao Linhai's telegram received a reply from his superiors, Gao Linhai, who received the telegram, spoke and saluted the comrades from the 57th Army who were escorting him next to the Qili Township Party Committee.

"Okay. The comrades of the 57th Army who received the notice did not grind and chirp, and returned the salute to Gao Linhai cleanly, and then turned around and left with the comrades who arranged for them to rest.

Then Gao Linhai stretched out his hand again and shook hands with the "Qi Li" town party committee, and then Gao Linhai said again: "According to the instructions of the superiors, Comrade Qi Li's next escort task to Xiaocanghe will be undertaken by our division? ”

"Thank you. The Qili Township Committee expressed gratitude to Gao Linhai.

Gao Linhai waved his hand, "There's no need, work needs, does the Qili Town Committee want to leave now?"

"Leave now, don't procrastinate. After the "Qi Li" town committee finished speaking, he saluted Gao Linhai, "Political Commissar Gao, see you another day." ”

"There is a period of regret. Gao Linhai returned the salute, and after Qi Li left by car, Gao Linhai, who was standing in place, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "This military salute of the Qili Town Committee seems to be not standard enough." ”

"But whatever!" Gao Linhai shook his head, "Smoke a cigarette and go to bed, fortunately, there is no combat mission tomorrow, you can rest for a night, otherwise you may have to be told by the division commander again." ”

Gao Linhai said this, and the words were not finished, "Really, sometimes I really don't understand whether I am a political commissar or he is a political commissar, maybe I should apply with the above, and let the division commander and mine be transferred as a political commissar." ”

Smoking a cigarette and listening to the heavy snow falling in the deep night sky, Gao Linhai fell into an inexplicable contemplation.

"At one o'clock in the morning, the 57th Army escorted my convoy to the target Weishan Pass. ”

At 1:14 a.m., he turned to the escort convoy of the Third Division of the Field Army of the Qishan Military Region to leave Weishan Pass and go to Xiaocanghe, the next pass. ”

Speeding quickly on the vehicle on the avenue, while constantly bumping, one hand held the pen steadily, and kept writing in the notebook he was holding.

"It takes about an hour to reach the Xiaocang River, and after crossing the Xiaocang River, it is this time that after several twists and turns in the south, after changing the route, it is finally the last checkpoint in the middle region, the Musu Pass. ”

"From the time Zhenbeiguan took that bronze carriage, to now it is finally about to leave the Hengduan Mountains and go south to the Central Domain, the time is exactly a whole number, ten days!"

"These ten days are ten days that I didn't expect at all, and the experience in these ten days is, without exaggeration, like three or four months. ”

"Every day of these ten days seems to be loaded with a delay mechanism, time is very difficult, every hour is a new thing happening, every minute there is a message in the ear, every second can be a sudden accident. ”

"In the past ten days, a war has been seen right in front of my eyes, not simply between people, but between humans and monsters. ”

"There are a lot of feelings, there are a lot of realizations, there are a lot of emotions, and it can be described with mixed feelings. ”

"There are gains and there are losses. ”

"The gain is that I have seen a lot of different things again, and my understanding of the world has taken a further leap, and what I have lost is naturally, I have begun to feel more and more integrated into the world, and the memory of the past world in my mind is more blurred. ”

"I don't know if this loss is okay, and I don't know if this gain is beneficial. ”

"I just still feel that this may be the only way for the traverser to walk!"

"Crossing and crossing, no matter how it is, as long as you can't cross again, there is only the last integration. ”
