No

It was them, who were abandoned.

And I, who happened to be an inconspicuous passer-by in this sad and desperate story, had nothing to do with me, but I almost broke down in disbelief.

How so? I froze in place, my heart stabbing like a pinprick, I shouldn't have this emotion, it's not my story. But it's bloody, but it's about my life and death, and even if they are abandoned, what does that mean? It means that the life of an ordinary person like me is cheaper.

Isn't it said that they are heroes?

That's how they treat heroes who give with their lives? How can they do that? I mourn the soldiers who fought so bloodily. I turned around stiffly and slowly, looking at them, and the turbulent and complicated emotions could only be played by a pale and wooden expression.

They should have realized before I did, and I could still see the disbelief in their eyes, but it was all the more tragic that they stood straight and didn't say a word. She was the only one standing in place with a calm face.

"Did they really have to!? Why?! Why?! ”

Lin Shaoquan pounced, knelt down, and slammed his fist on the solid ground, I couldn't help but feel worried about his hand. But he didn't seem to feel pain, the green tendons on his neck were like wriggling snakes, his eyes were as if they were about to eat people, but his fierce eyes were shining with tears.

This is a man of flesh and blood, and I should have felt resentment at the punch he punched me, but at this moment it seems to have vanished, and I admire this flesh-and-blood soldier.

She quietly walked towards the package thrown down from the plane, it was a large-capacity marching bag, she picked up the marching bag, opened it and looked at it, then picked it up and walked towards everyone.

"Team Zhang, I hope you can give an explanation to the brothers, an explanation to the dead brothers, why did they do this?"

Lin Shaoquan lowered his head, snorted heavily, and his voice was slightly hoarse.

She stood quietly in front of Lin Shaoquan, carrying a marching bag in her hand: "Before leaving, we signed the life and death certificate and left a testament. At that moment, you should realize that you have become dead. ”

"Yes, but," he clenched his fists, "but I don't want to die so wronged, and I don't want my brothers to die so wronged." ”

"As far as I know, in areas with serious nuclear pollution, only 0.3 percent of people may not induce mutated genes, and whether the virus has an incubation period is not yet known, once we carry the virus back, it will no longer be a personal matter, but a disaster for countless people, people in the disaster source area must not leave the quarantine area, even if we enter the quarantine area for business, let alone impossible." She calmly and coldly uttered a fact that no one wanted to accept.

Lin Shaoquan stopped talking, just lowered his head and clenched his fists, as if he had not yet come out of his emotions.

She continued: "You know the urgency of this mission, it is related to the survival of the country, the survival of the people, and you are soldiers, dying for the country, dying for the people, it is your fate, it is the fate of soldiers. As she spoke, she glanced at the people present, then poured out the contents of the marching bag, took out a piece of paper from it, and read: "All the soldiers of the 106th Brigade Special Operations Detachment of the 36th Division of the 18th Red Lion Army died in the line of duty, and were posthumously awarded the honor of martyr, commander, Zhang Yingying, female, rank, major, awarded the martyr, first-class meritorious service. Deputy Commander, Lin Shaoquan, male, military rank, major, martyr, first-class meritorious Liu Yong, ordnance, second lieutenant, martyr of the 106th Brigade of the 36th Division of the Red Lion Army The martyrs who died in the line of duty, salute! ”

"Salute !!"

I watched a special ceremony, I felt a little ridiculous, but I couldn't laugh, this is a group of martyrs who have not died yet to salute themselves who are about to die, I am the only bystander, I don't know if it is fortunate or unfortunate.

"Rite !!"

Her voice is crisp and high, and her straight body is heroic and unyielding, blooming with her unique iron-blooded heroism.

They became martyrs, and what about me? A forgotten passerby

"We're dead."

She said this, then pointed to the pile of things on the ground that had been poured out of the marching bag: "You should be glad that they left us compressed biscuits for three edible solstice days, as well as drugs to boost the body's immunity. ”

She started handing out compressed biscuits, giving me five packets of compressed biscuits packed in vacuum bags. One by one, the soldiers who got the syringes pulled out the hoses of the syringes and injected the liquid into their arms. I, on the other hand, were a little hesitant because I wouldn't use it.

She looked at me during the injection, seemed to sense my embarrassment, and after she finished the injection, she walked up to me, picked up the syringe in my hand, pulled out the hose, scooped up my left sleeve, and inserted the needle into my arm.

"Team Zhang, what should we do now? Could it be that Lin Shaoquan walked up to her, looked back at the soldiers with a complicated expression, and his voice was hoarse and low: "Do you really let the brothers wait here for death?" ”

She was silent at first, perhaps she had guessed the outcome, but she didn't think about how she would live with the group of people in the future.

"We should go in the direction of Source City"

They still want to live, that's what I want to see the most, and what I'm most afraid of is that they will live and die, because they are my hope to live.

In order to survive, my brain didn't know when it would start, and it was like a clue, and it was running rapidly. In the scrutinizing eyes of her and Lin Shaoquan, I said what I thought: "The most serious city in the disaster source area is Chengqing City, where millions of citizens have been infected with the virus and become the source of the disease, including several cities near Chengqing City, isn't it?" ”

I told my guess, looking at her and Lin Shaoquan, she was silent, Lin Shaoquan nodded imperceptibly, and after getting the answer, I continued: "The scope of nuclear radiation is very large, I think, the disaster source area is not only Chengqing City and its surroundings, right?" Other provinces must have had such problems to a greater or lesser extent, right? ”

I asked, she was still silent, Lin Shaoquan hesitated for a moment, and nodded hesitantly.

"There should be pathogens in many nearby cities, in this area, there is no safe place, these pathogens will spread to the surrounding cities sooner or later, and even because there are no survivors who have time to evacuate, the isolation zone is full of pathogens, and now more than half a month has passed, if we want to live, we must go to the direction of the source city, which is the city at the edge of the isolation zone, all citizens should have evacuated a long time ago, according to the speed of the spread of the virus, there should be no threat of pathogens there for the time being."

I saw Lin Shaoquan's stiff face slightly moved, it should have approved my plan, but she was still silent, maybe she had already thought of this, I was silent for a moment, and said the guess in my heart: "I think, the most dangerous thing is not the source of the disease." ”

In Lin Shaoquan's puzzled look, I explained bitterly: "Since the military has pulled up the isolation belt, it means that the root cause of this devastating disaster must be eliminated." How to exterminate and to whom exterminate? Naturally, there are pathogens that have mutated genes and constitutions, and if we want to stop the parasitic viruses in the pathogen from spreading, we must eradicate these pathogens. And these viral parasites are nearly tens of millions of people, how can they be eradicated? It is impossible to use nuclear weapons, and I guess that the next step should be to send the air force to carry out a carpet bombing attack, and then gradually close the isolation zone, and destroy the pathogen inside little by little, as long as it is in the isolation zone, whether it is the pathogen or normal humans who are not infected, they will be killed."

She was finally no longer silent, and a hint of gloom flashed in her bright eyes: "Your guess is correct, as long as it is in the isolation zone, it is impossible for either the pathogen or the survivor to survive." Death is just a matter of time. ”

"That Us"

Lin Shaoquan's eyes widened, he obviously hadn't thought about these questions. I think that if it weren't for the sense of crisis that arose in my heart, maybe I wouldn't have thought about it so deeply, and what I said was simply a baseless guess, but I didn't expect it to be so close to the truth. I thought that what I had exaggerated would give her a sense of crisis, and she would find a way to get us out of the isolation zone, but I didn't expect that she would have thought of everything I could have guessed, and even more than I did.

"We can find a way to get out of the isolation zone, I know that the source city Haikou is a good escape route, we can sail out of the sea, maybe we can find enough wetsuits, when we are close to the defense line, we can dive away from their sight and sneak out from the bottom." I was still unwilling to accept my fate like this, I couldn't help but say the thoughts that flashed in my mind, and the more I spoke, the more excited I became, and the louder and louder I became, I couldn't even believe my own blind thoughts, and when I thought about it, it was really possible to succeed, which made me more and more excited, but the reality will always try to make people bow their heads and accept their fate.

Just after I became more and more sure of my thoughts, I subconsciously wanted to look at the expressions of the two of them, but I found that things were not as perfect as I imagined, and she rarely changed her expression, her face was full of mockery, and she looked at me like she was looking at an idiot: "You are a waste when you are in the military?" Even if the Haikou defense line is as unbearable as you say, will they be so stupid that they don't even pull the iron net near the defense line? ”

Her words undoubtedly made me feel like I had been splashed with cold water in the cold winter season, which was really embarrassing, and I felt some hot stinging pain in my face, as if someone had slapped me a few times, and woke me up from my daydream.

"Is there really no way around it?"

Lin Shaoquan on the side clenched his fists and looked at her unwillingly, the muscles of his face throbbing and twitching. Perhaps, he also wants to live, and wants to live with that group of brothers in life and death. Or else? Who wants their life to end in their most glorious years?

I didn't want to die, I didn't want to stay in this dangerous quarantine zone, I made a bold decision, I wanted to give her a reason to live, a reason to leave the quarantine zone, otherwise, my hope of living would become more and more slim.

"We have to get out of the fence."

I said in a sure tone, and she looked at me, I don't know if my decision will stir her to live, but I have to try.
