Chapter 148: Wait
Three days later, Goofy returned to his company, except that he did not go with the main army, but in the health team's car.
After returning to the reconnaissance company, the veterans of the company all looked at him and Wang Ye with alternative glasses.
Two days later, the company returned to normal training.
It's just that Gao Fei was injured in the leg and couldn't participate in the normal work of the company, and in the end, he could only be placed in the cooking class to help.
However, Gao Fei is not the official establishment of the cooking class after all, and the squad leader of the cooking class did not let Gao Fei do the main work of the cooking class, he completely became a miscellaneous staff member of the cooking class, mostly to pick up vegetables, clean up the kitchen, etc.
On this day, Gao Fei and Lao Wang, squad leader of the cooking squad (Gao Fei didn't know what Lao Wang's squad leader was called, it seemed that the people in the company only called him Lao Wang's squad leader, he was a fourth-level non-commissioned officer, and the oldest soldier in the brigade. )
When he arrived at the gate of the camp, Goofy got out of the tricycle, and at this time, he saw an old woman, carrying a snakeskin bag, picking up garbage at the gate of the camp.
The old woman was wearing a military uniform of the era, without a military rank, and there were several patches on the military uniform, Gao Fei was a little curious when he saw it.
The old woman, carrying the snakeskin bag, moved at some point to their cart, and here, like them, waited to fetch the food, but not the cooks of the company, who, like the cooks of the reconnaissance company, carried their own company's carts or tricycles.
Gao Fei's unit has its own logistical supply, which is the logistics section of the organ, and they are responsible for purchasing the dishes in the market, and the dishes they purchase are also reported to the secretaries of each company, and after that, the logistics supplies are bought, sorted out, and sent to their barracks.
Gao Fei saw that the soldiers of the cooking class, they were very conscious, took out a few empty bottles from their cars and handed them to the old woman, and even Lao Wang, who came out with him, handed two empty bottles to the old woman.
Goofy then realized why when they came out, there were two empty bottles of mineral water in the tricycle used to pull vegetables.
And the old woman, after collecting the bottles handed over by the soldiers of the cooking class, did not hurry to leave, she put the snakeskin bag in her hand on the ground, and sat down.
Gao Fei was full of questions and curiosity about this old woman, but now, it was clear that it was not a good opportunity to find out the opportunity.
It didn't take long for the logistics delivery truck to come, and then, it began to distribute the food to the companies, and the soldiers who distributed the vegetables in the logistics also packed the cardboard boxes for the purchased supplies, folded them, and gave them to the old woman, and this was not enough, the team leader in charge of logistics also got out of the car and handed over a small bag of dishes to the old woman.
After the old woman had collected the cardboard box, she dragged the full snakeskin bag out of the camp.
The old woman was obviously a little hunchbacked, and the snakeskin bag seemed to be a big burden to him, which made Goofy look a little uncomfortable in his heart.
When the old woman arrived at the door, an old soldier who was not standing guard helped the old woman to lift the snakeskin bag and go out.
"Goofy, are we all ready?" When Goofy was distracted, the voice of Lao Wang's squad leader came.
Gao Fei hurriedly picked up the record book in his hand, he looked at the dishes in the corresponding tricycle, and then replied: "Lao Wang, our dishes are all ready." ”
"Okay, then let's go back and get in the car."
After Lao Wang's squad leader finished speaking, he stepped on the tricycle.
And Goofy, because he injured his leg, he couldn't pedal the tricycle, so he could only sit in the back of the tricycle.
After they rode forward for a short time, they arrived at the uphill road, here, Gao Fei couldn't sit in the car, he also got down and helped Lao Wang's squad leader push the cart.
"Gao Fei, I see that you have been wandering for a while, are you hiding something in your heart?" Lao Wang, the squad leader who boarded the tricycle, turned around and asked Gao Fei.
Gao Fei hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he didn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, he asked: "Old Wang, squad leader, when we picked up the food before, the old woman we saw, who is he?" I think he's pathetic. ”
Lao Wang's squad leader got out of the car, got down and pushed the car away, he was quiet for dozens of seconds before he said: "That's Grandma Yang, this Grandma Yang's identity is a little special, his son turned out to be a battalion commander of our army, which is our camp." ”
When Lao Wang said this, there was no movement suddenly, and Gao Fei listened to half of it, and he didn't hear a reason, half of what he said, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
"Lao Wang's squad leader, could it be that battalion commander........."
Gao Fei's later words, he didn't say it, and the later words were not easy to say.
"Actually, this is a very sad story of our troops, most of the people in our army know it, but it is all handed down by the older generation, but the battalion commander, I know."
Goofy was even more curious, so he asked, "What happened later?" ”
"That was the original commander of our second battalion, I was still a recruit at the time, once, we caused a forest fire in the mountainous area, the second battalion commander at that time took the soldiers of the second battalion to fight the fire, the fire burned very big, and later, the mountain suddenly turned the direction of the wind, and most of the fire had been extinguished, and it was reversed back, Battalion Commander Zhang was covered up by the fire in order to save a new soldier, and then the fire was finally extinguished through the joint efforts of troops in many regions, but the battalion commander Zhang could not be found."
After Lao Wang's squad leader said this, he turned around, looked at Gao Fei, and said: "Actually, everyone knows that Battalion Commander Zhang has sacrificed, but Battalion Commander Zhang's body has not been found, and Camp Commander Zhang's old mother, that is, the old grandmother you saw before, he didn't believe in his child, so it was gone, so he walked thousands of miles from his hometown to the army, and finally he took root outside our army barracks, picking waste for a living, and the troops also came forward to set up Grandma Yang, but Grandma Yang did not leave. ”
Lao Wang's squad leader looked at Gao Fei, changed his tone, and asked Gao Fei, "Do you know what Grandma Yang is reluctant to leave for?" ”
Goofy was shocked by a sad story, and he subconsciously shook his head.
"Grandma Yang said that his child is not dead, he will come back, he will be stationed at the door of our barracks, she has to wait, wait for his child to come back."
