Chapter 10: Alive

Here, probably because everyone pins their heads to their belts all the time, there is no taboo in the army, except for the border sentinels who need to be on duty that night, almost all the soldiers of the federal imperial death force drink more or less whiskey, otherwise, at Pearl Harbor, where the temperature is a few degrees below zero at night, there is really no effective way to keep the soldiers warm.

After three rounds of drinking, at this time, Zhang Tie was also bold, his face was flushed, and he came to Mitchell leisurely, half-raised the wine glass in his hand, and said: "Dear general, you are really too sympathetic to the military situation, I feel envious that the American Empire has such a lieutenant general as you, come, I will give you a glass." ”

After saying that, the former tilted his neck and drank the liquor in his hand down his stomach, feeling the heat like a burning fire, he couldn't help but burp, and a mouthful of wine was spraying on Mitchell's face.

Now it was embarrassing, including the soldiers of the American Empire, all the officers and soldiers couldn't help but gather their eyes here, and the camp that was originally full of wine and laughter was filled with endless silence at this time, and everyone was looking at Mitchell's blushing face.

"Although I am not opposed to drinking in moderation as a way to regulate body temperature, excessive drinking like you is not a good phenomenon after all! Sir Yang, this should be your soldiers......" Mitchell glanced at Yang Lei next to him and said: "Like this, I really don't know what I'm here for, if the enemy's gunboat is not far away, I believe Your Excellency may not even be able to do the least evacuation order, right?" ”

"This ...... Iron, don't drink it! Yang Lei looked at Zhang Tie and looked unaware, and immediately stopped: "Look at what you are drunk and what kind of body you have become?" ”

"I'm not drunk...... Not drunk. After Zhang Tie finished speaking, he turned around and put his arms around Mitchell's neck, pointed to the moon in the sky, and said: "Old man, do you know that there is a poem in our Huaxia country, called when is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky, and it is ......"

Yang Lei couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this, seeing this, the falcon glanced at him, and he then recruited two soldiers to forcibly carry him back to the tent.

"Father-in-law, it's not too early, I think it's better to let the distinguished guests who have been tired for a day rest first, and it's not too late to deal with any affairs until everyone wakes up, what do you think?"

At this time, James, who had not said a word during the whole dinner, suddenly spoke.

Mitchell, who was not dripping with wine, nodded after hearing this, and said, "Inform the sentry, don't relax your police equipment, and the rest of the people will all go back to the barracks to rest." ”

In this way, the banquet of the American military to welcome the Chinese death squads to Pearl Harbor on the first day ended hastily, and when Mitchell left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Mitchell walking away slowly, muttering something in his mouth as he walked, as if immersed in what Zhang Tie had just said, Yang Lei shook his head helplessly and wanted to leave.

"Comrade Major, please wait a minute." James hurriedly shouted when he saw this.

Yang Lei turned around and watched the young man with a sturdy physique and muscular arms trotting towards him, and couldn't help but be puzzled, and asked, "Major James, do you have any instructions?" ”

"No, no, yes...... Are there cigarettes? Jaime said.

After tossing the only pack of Ares cigarettes left in his pocket, Yang Lei said, "Major James, I think I have to remind you that smoking is bad for your health. ”

"Hehe, I don't think, if that's the case, why do you still put this thing on you?" James said, "Besides, I see that you have been smoking alone at the banquet, do you have anything on your mind?" ”

Seeing Yang Lei's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, James immediately explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just see that you are not in a very good mood, so if you have anything unhappy, you can confide in me, you know, this is also convenient for us to work together in the future, in order to promote the cooperation between the naval forces of China and the United States, so ......"

Since the latter served as the commander of the naval forces of the American military in this Pacific incident, Yang Lei thought that in the future alliance period, the two would definitely be partners, and then he didn't think much about this deliberate concern.

"You're married, aren't you?" Yang Lei said: "What Lieutenant General Mitchell said, you have a beautiful wife, right?" ”

"Yes, Ruth and I are married, but this time he was not involved in the Pacific incident, I don't hide it, this is what I mean, because we already have the crystallization of love, I think if you are a married soldier, you should be able to understand my feelings, after all, accidents can happen on the battlefield at any time."

"Yes, I understand." Yang Lei replied with a smile.

Regarding Yang Lei's indifference, James was slightly surprised: "Are you already ......?"

"I'm not married, but ...... Well, as you guessed. Yang Lei said with some embarrassment.

Unexpectedly, James laughed out loud after hearing this, and said: "Dear Comrade Major, you don't have to be like this, take off your military uniforms, we are all the same, men probably know what kind of virtue they are, so, you are unmarried and have children, right?" ”

Yang Lei nodded awkwardly.

"Hmm, it seems that your Huaxia Kingdom has become more and more open over the years." James quipped, "I'm sorry, no offense, but I think that lady must be very beautiful, or she wouldn't have captured the heart of our comrade major." ”

"She's really beautiful." Yang Lei said truthfully.

"Are you worried that you won't be able to see her again?" Jaime asked.

Yang Lei acquiesced to this and said, "Jaime, I want to ask you a question, how do you feel now?" It is...... When I knew I was about to become a father. ”

"You have to be stronger, you have to go back alive, that's it!" Jaime said, "Being alive is more important to us than anything else, and as long as we live, there is hope, which my father-in-law taught me." ”

Nodding, Yang Lei said, "Thank you, I think I already know what to do." ”

"It's a great honor to help you." After continuing to chat for a while, James said goodbye to Yang Lei, and before leaving, he didn't forget to say: "This smoke is very strong." ”

Laughing at it, Yang Lei let out a long sigh of relief, looking at the American reconnaissance plane with its signal lights flashing from time to time in the sky, and his thoughts couldn't help but go back to when he was in Akagi.

"Alive...... Stay alive! Clenching his fists tightly, Yang Lei secretly made up his mind in his heart, and then got into the camp tent.

At Pearl Harbor at night, due to the perennial snow cover of the mountains on both sides, coupled with the low-lying terrain, the air could not help but be a little cold, and as all the officers and men in the harbor gradually fell asleep, something seemed to be slowly floating on the endless black sea.
