Chapter 9: Commander of the Light Pole
When Shi Changqing finished telling his story, the sun also set, and the chariot under the mountain lit up with white lights.
An Jia listened to him quietly, and curiously pointed to the collar badge under his chin and asked, "How big an official is it to bring this brand?" How many people do you have? ”
Shi Qingshan stroked the two-bar one-star collar badge and said: "This is the rank of major, I used to have five soldiers under me, I told you just now, they are glorious on the ship, and now I am the commander of the light pole!" ”
"Why are you only leading five soldiers? My cousin has eight or nine subordinates in a small squad leader! Anjia looked down on him.
"That's different!"
Shi Qingshan thought for a while and said, "Let me tell you this, if in other troops, the position corresponding to my rank is battalion commander, and I can manage thirty squad leaders like your cousin!" ”
Anjia wrapped her fingers around the ends of her hair and tilted her head and groaned: "Battalion commander? There should be platoon commanders and company commanders below the battalion commander, have you been a soldier for more than ten years? ”
"What more than ten years of soldiers? Lao Tzu is the same age as you, okay! ”
"You're only twenty-six? How can I not believe it? ”
"Show you your papers!"
Shi Qingshan took out his military ID card from one pocket and showed it to her.
An Jia carefully compared the documents with Shi Qingshan, and smiled: "It's quite handsome with a big-brimmed hat!" But...... I found out that you yourself are in a hurry to look like in the photos! ”
Shi Qingshan glanced at her: "Isn't this nonsense?" The photo was taken when I graduated from my country's defense university, and after five or six years, of course, I am more mature! ”
The corners of An Jia's mouth curled, her arms wrapped around her crystal round knees, and her body shook slightly and asked, "Is it that the leader thinks that you are not very capable, so he only asks you to bring five people?" ”
"Hmph, it's the opposite! I'm very capable! ”
"How tall? That's as tall as a five-story building? ”
Shi Qingshan said disdainfully: "The five-story building is still called high?" Don't look at my only five brothers, they were all once the kings of soldiers in the major military regions! It's a pity that the boat capsized in the gutter, and he didn't sacrifice his life for the country, but died in the hands of zombies! I don't know what happened to their families. We haven't been together for long, and we don't know where their house is, otherwise I would have gone back to see it for them. ”
Shi Qingshan said as he spoke, and there were faint tears in his eyes.
An Jia was also a little moved, was silent for a while, and asked softly: "Then where are you from, and who else is in the family?" ”
Shi Qingshan lit another cigarette, and the red cigarette butt trembled slightly in the twilight.
"I still have my father and mother at home! If you have good eyesight, stand upstairs and look due south, a few hundred miles away, on the other side of the sea is my house. ”
Anjia knew that he was worried about his parents, so she deliberately didn't let him think in that direction: "Oh...... No wonder you smell of oysters when you speak! It's so close to the sea, why don't you go to the navy, how hard and tiring the special forces are! ”
Shi Qingshan heard the righteous and stern education of her: "You must know that being a soldier is where the country needs me to go!" Instead of going wherever you want! Do you think the army was run by your family? ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Oh no, it's not! The troops are not driven by my family! ”
Anjia humbly accepted the criticism.
It gets dark very quickly, and you can't see the situation down the mountain without night vision equipment.
Shi Qingshan suddenly became focused, and he vaguely saw a few thin zombies crawling up in the grass, attracted by the lights of the car wash, and staggered towards the chariot.
It was a little far away, he pulled down the bolt of the gun and aimed it at the zombie's waist, and fired several shots in a row, "bang, bang, bang", all of which broke them into two.
A 12.7mm bullet will shatter any part of the body, and zombies, like living people, will lose a lot of blood and incapacitate them.
Shi Qingshan got up and stepped on the cigarette butt and said, "Hurry up and go down!" Zombies have large pupils, and they have poor eyesight during the day, but they can see better than us at night! ”
"Okay!"
Anjia also stood up, patted the dust that might be on her skirt, and ran down the hill with him.
Hearing the gunshots, Zhang Gong and Wang Hongwen sped up the speed of the car wash.
The bones and minced flesh of the zombies are stuck in the crevices of the chariot's tracks, and the inside of the carrier wheels and load-bearing wheels are also dead spots for washing. The two of them endured the fishy smell and dried quickly, but when Shi Qingshan and An Jia ran in front of them, they didn't clean up one side of the track, and only brushed the upper part of the body and the bulldozer shovel.
Shi Qingshan circled around the chariot, and saw that a headlight cover on the right side of the car was broken, and a few LED lamp beads were broken, which may have been touched by the crossbar of the community.
"Lao Zhang, this can't work! We have to change the front shovel to a deed shape and increase the height. If you hit it like this, no matter how hard the body is, you will have to damage! ”
Zhang Gong immediately responded to his proposal: "Hmm! I've also thought about it, there is another advantage to changing the shovel to a triangle, hitting the zombies will push them to both sides, and they won't be pressed directly, you see that the stubble in the chain rail is full, and it can't be cleaned at all! ”
Shi Qingshan touched the short beard of his chin and thought for a while, "Don't wash it!" Drive directly to the lake, we don't need a water jet propulsion, and we can accelerate directly to run a track that is estimated to be self-cleaning! ”
"Good way! I guess it works! Zhang Gong and Wang Hongwen, who were already exhausted, immediately agreed with this idea.
"But then the water will be contaminated!" Shi Qingshan was a little undecided.
"Oops, you're thinking too much! This water has long been polluted! Just now I threw a water pipe into it, and a carp with red eyes stared at me at the water's edge, looking like it wanted to bite me, it was crazy! Even grazing fish want to eat people! Wang Hongwen couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
"In that case, let's pack up and leave! It's not safe on the shore, and if the lights attract a few big rats, it's going to be troublesome! Shi Qingshan made a decision.
In fact, there is nothing to clean up, the car wash pump is not needed, and several people speed up their actions, and directly cut off the power supply and enter the car.
Zhang Gong was still in charge of driving, he raised the bulldozer shovel of the chariot to the highest, put down the wave guard, and slowly drove into the water, and the chariot floated.
The waterjet at the rear of the vehicle worked for a while, and after pushing the vehicle some distance from the shore, the tracks began to turn, and they turned faster and faster.
The generator joined the work, the eight-cylinder diesel engine roared, the chariot looked like a monster peeking out of the water, and the tracks raised two dark red waves of water, spraying high.
Zhang Gong didn't dare to turn on the water jet now, he was afraid of getting stuck in the dirt.
The traveling mechanism used on land is not easy to control the direction in the water, and the chariot draws a serpentine red line on the water.
After a few minutes, Shi Qingshan opened the hatch and poked his head out to take a look, and came back and said, "Okay, Lao Zhang!" The water is clear, and the tracks are as good as new! ”
The engine revs slowly slowed down......
"Great! Let's wash the car like this in the future! ”
Shi Qingshan smiled slightly and said: "As long as it doesn't rain zombies anymore, you can wash it like this, and the amphibious vehicle is not a submarine, so at most you can only wash the tracks!" ”
He looked back at Anjia and saw that she was quietly looking out the window thinking about her thoughts, so he said, "I'll rest on the water after dinner tonight, just to fully charge the battery!" ”
"Come on! Sleep on a waterbed tonight! "Zhang Gong is not as depressed as Fang Cai.
Wang Hongwen was still a little sullen, and when he heard Shi Qingshan say that he would not go ashore tonight, he suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he actively prepared the food for dinner.
