In July 1951, the 40th Army was transferred to the area near the west coast, and while resting, it was responsible for preparing for the landing operation against the US army. It was already early summer, and the weather was slowly getting warmer, as it was close to the sea, and the climate was getting wetter.

Since coming to North Korea with the troops, Shi Chen has been in North Korea for almost 9 months. One to five battles, fighting, charging, retreating. Shi Chen's mood also changed from the triumphant when he first entered Korea, to the complicated inner complexity when he transferred to the five battles later, which made him more and more reticent.

Today, it was the Lianli machine qiang squad standing guard, and Shi Chen set up a turntable qiang to stand guard quietly on the position near the beach. He was lonely and bored, but he enjoyed the time, wiping the turntable with a cloth, while occasionally looking up at the sea, looking at the waves that were constantly washing on the shore, and thinking back to the past.

Shi Chen began to feel more and more homesick, and he began to miss the days with Ah Feng and Xiao Fengtian. Maybe he didn't think so much about it when he was fighting and charging into battle, but when it was time to rest, Shi Chen's mind began to ripple and began to recall the past. The naughtiness and stubbornness of childhood, the responsibility of being a first-time father, and the reluctance to leave home, the former comrades-in-arms kept falling, those roads they had walked, those people they had met, everything seemed to have just happened in Shi Chen's mind.

At this time, Guo Lin, who had put a secret sentry in the grass next to him, came out of the grass pile. His head and body were covered with leaves and blades of grass, and he looked a little funny, like a scarecrow. He came to Shi Chen's side, casually found a stone and sat cross-legged, looked at Shi Chen's appearance looking at the sea, smiled and said, "The squad leader has something on his mind again?" ”

Shi Chen saw Guo Lin, blinked his eyes and said, "Why don't you put your secret whistle well, what are you doing when you come out?" If Company Commander Li sees it, he will scold his mother again! ”

"Haha, it's okay, squad leader, as long as you don't say it, no one knows." Guo Lin said with a smile.

People who have experienced war are usually not smiling, and they are usually expressionless. But they all cherish their feelings, and they are the feelings of their comrades-in-arms. Shi Chen was embarrassed to say anything, after all, it was a class, so he smiled, and then turned his eyes to the sea again.

Guo Lin looked at Shi Chen, who had a melancholy face, and said, "Squad leader, are you thinking about the past again?" ”

Shi Chen shook his head, his eyes were still staring at the sea and said with a smile: "Haha, no, I just want to be stunned for a while." ”

"Squad leader, I don't know you yet. I've been following you since I entered the machine qiang class, how can I say that it's been two or three years now, and you still don't know? When you pout your ass now, I can tell how much shit you pull. When you are alone, you start to think about things, and when you think about things, you start to wipe qiang, which is about to be wiped off by you, do you miss your family again? ”

"You, you. It's like a roundworm in my stomach! I can't hide anything from you, haha. Yes, I miss my family again, and I start thinking about my own women and children. ”

Guo Lin also set his eyes on the sea and said in a deep voice: "Yes, since I lost my home, I often think of the past, my father, my mother, and many interesting things with them. But now there is nothing left, only thoughts, only those thoughts that I don't want to remember, but keep remembering. ”

Shi Chen glanced at Guo Lin and said softly: "Guo Lin, if the war is over, hurry up and ask for a wife and start a family." ”

Guo Lin shook his head and said with a smile: "It's a bit too early for Zhang Luo to do this, why don't you wait until the American devils are beaten away, and then Zhang Luo will do this after it's too peaceful." ”

Shi Chen nodded lightly and said, "Yes, everything has to wait until after the battle!" ”

After a while, the meal began. Baochuan and Zhigang finished eating and came to replace Shi Chen and Guo Lin's sentry.

After fighting so many battles, I even have experience in cooking in the cooking class. In order to prevent air raids, the stoves of the cooking squad did not have chimneys, and they used leaves to pour water to create "smoke stoves" along the trend of the cooking smoke.

Today's staple food is steamed buns, and the side dish is wild vegetable soup. At that time, white noodles were brought in, but there was no yeast, so the cooks simply fermented them with salt and water, so the steamed steamed buns were hard. In order not to delay the lives of the neighboring North Korean people, Company Commander Li specially instructed the volunteer soldiers who went out to dig wild vegetables: "Dig less, don't dig all the wild vegetables, the North Korean people in the vicinity also have to live, because the harvest is very bad because of the war, we should dig less and leave some for the North Korean people to eat." "So the wild vegetables in the wild vegetable soup are also very thin. But that's it, it can be regarded as a meal in the volunteer army.

"Haha, is it a holiday today? There are white flour buns to eat. Shi Chen looked at those hard steamed buns and said.

Cai Dong, who was eating steamed buns on the side, pointed to the table of Company Commander Li and Instructor Zhao not far away, and said in a Hunan accent: "Squad leader, look at the people at that table." ”

Shi Chen and Guo Lin looked in the direction of Cai Dong's finger, and there were several men sitting next to Company Commander Li and Instructor Zhao at a table not far away, their white skin, high nose bridge, curly hair, and the same clothes as the volunteers. Their table was noticeably different from the others, with a few more cans of American canned food and fish soup made from freshly caught fish from the sea.

Shi Chen chewed the steamed bun and said, "Huh? What about this, why are there still Americans? Why do you still eat so well? Are you wearing the same clothes as us? ”

Cai Dong listened to Shi Chen's words, shook his hand and said, "No, squad leader, not an American devil." It's lao maozi, the Soviets! I heard Liu Er of the sixth class stunned and said, they are here to teach our army's artillery battalion da pao, today to survey the terrain and pass by our company's station, the superior specially ordered our company to treat people well. Don't you see this, today we will borrow light from the Soviets, can we eat white flour buns? ”

Shi Chen asked suspiciously: "Teach da pao, what kind of cannon do you teach?" ”

Cai Dong replied: "It seems to be called a card or a cannon, and it is said to be quite powerful." ”

Guo Lin took Caidong's words and said, "Katyusha rocket artillery! ”

Cai Dong nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it seems to be the cannon!" ”

Shi Chen looked at Guo Lin, and then asked, "What cannon!" So powerful? ”

Guo Lin said: "The power of that kind of cannon is equivalent to the firepower of one of our previous artillery companies, which is very fierce!" ”

Shi Chen still said with some skepticism: "There is still this kind of cannon? ”

"Yes, that kind of cannon is composed of many barrels, once fired, a dozen or even dozens of shells will be fired in a few seconds, the power is amazing, and the lethality is very strong!"

Shi Chen nodded and said, "That relationship is really good!" We can also be regarded as a bit heavy firepower! This meal must be served to them. After saying that, he began to be happy.

"Haha, the squad leader told you. When Liu Er was stunned when he saw the Soviets just now, he thought it was an American spy? They all look like each other, and they almost didn't kill anyone when they picked up qiang! Fortunately, the interpreter shouted in time, otherwise it would have hurt the friendly soldiers. ”

Shi Chen asked again: "Then why are they still wearing our clothes?" ”

Guo Lin said: "The Soviets are afraid of causing political trouble to their own country, and now the Soviets and the Americans have not yet fought openly." If a Soviet soldier dies and is discovered by the Americans, it will be assumed that the Soviets have also entered the war. But wearing our clothes, even if the Soviets are sacrificed and discovered by the Americans, it can be said that we are a minority in China, and we can reduce a lot of political trouble for the Soviets. ”

Shi Chen nodded and said, "Oh! That's it. ”

Cai Dong next to him said: "Then you say that the Soviets are so bears, such a strong country, why are we not as good as us, dare to fight with the Americans!" ”

Guo Lin said: "This is determined by the current international situation, the Soviet Union and the United States are now friendly countries, if the two countries fight, then Di Sanshi Jiezhan will not be far away!" ”

Shi Chen and Cai Dong both nodded after listening to Guo Lin's explanation, and set their eyes on the table again...... Baidu takes a look at the latest chapter of "Men's World Masterpiece Literature" to read for free for the first time.
