It is not at all true to say that a camel is bigger than a horse.

Half of a brigade is gone, half of a brigade is also a brigade, and the brigade commander is still a brigade commander, not to mention that people are still officially organized!

In the hall of the mansion, there were five people, and in the middle of the hall sat the brigade chief, in his thirties, although he looked haggard, he was quite rich, the two buttons under the collar were not tied, and the military hat was held in his hand and fiddled.

On the left sat a regimental commander, with a scruffy beard and a fierce face, with a bandage on his forehead, and no hat, who looked like a fierce general.

On the right sat Staff Officer Liang, and behind the brigade commander stood a guard; it was said that the adjutant should be standing behind him, but unfortunately, the adjutant was unlucky, and he disappeared with the other half of the brigade.

In the middle of the hall, there was a Balu, of course he was Hu Yi.

After looking Hu Yi up and down three times, the brigade commander continued to fiddle with the hat in his hand and asked, "You said you are...... Independent regiment?"

"Yes. ”

"Hehe, I've heard of the new group, and I've also heard of the temporary group, your independent group...... What kind of regiment?"

This is not a question at all, it is just a mockery, talking about things with fame, and he can't arouse Hu Yi's interest in refuting it, he only replied lightly: "You can understand it however you want." ”

The brigade commander asked again: "What about ...... How many troops do you have?"

"Four companies. ”

With a snort, even the regiment commander laughed this time: "Four companies? I'm really curious, how did you come to be the commander of the ninth company?

"Chosen. ”

The regimental commander, whose military uniform was dirty and his head was bandaged, raised his chin and continued with a look of disdain: "This guy is very cleanly dressed and has he ever fought? Has he been hiding in the mountains all day?"

Hu Yi is still expressionless, this kind of sarcasm, if someone who has never fought is here, it will definitely not be able to stand, it is strange not to blush and explain roughly, precisely because he has fought, no matter whether it is a big or small battle, he has been too lazy to live, so there is no wave in his heart. He looked at the bandage wrapped around the head of the regiment leader, obviously an extradermal abrasion that was not even bloody enough, and it was actually necessary to deal with it so ceremoniously, you can imagine what kind of person this is. is also the head of the regiment, he is much worse than the head of the regiment, although the commander of the regiment Lu is also a disgusting guy, but he will never look down on people, on the contrary, the commander of the regiment attaches importance to all opponents, even in the face of the girl, he will destroy the flower and not underestimate the enemy, now it seems that it is really rare, it is very lucky!

"We can't afford to fight, we can only hide every day. That's why I've been sent here, and I want to ask you if you want to take refuge with us?"

These words made Hu Yi say not salty or light, but several listeners were speechless, and the hall was so quiet that it was so quiet that a pin could be heard.

The brigade commander turned his head to look at his regiment commander and scolded him with his eyes for being stupid, that if you want to save face, you will have one less way to live, and if you can't speak, what kind of door do you interfere with?

The regiment commander turned his head to look at his brigade commander and retorted with his eyes, didn't you laugh and sarcasm first? I understood the intention of your superiors to put the icing on the cake and humiliate Tubalu? Can you blame me now?

Hu Yi didn't feel comfortable, a tooth for a tooth was just his selfish character, he was thinking now, this sentence must not be reported in the same way after he goes back, otherwise Director Su will have to kill him, a bastard who is quick for a moment and ignores the overall situation, and he hasn't wiped off the matter with the three bullshit, this is another stroke, can he still live!

Staff Officer Liang didn't speak all the time, there was a brigade commander here, and in front of an outsider, this staff officer who didn't fart was not suitable for talking. His face was very bad, and he was thinking, putting the cart before the horse! When has this been, and he is still playing face-saving? The Three Kingdoms have seen too much? Regard yourself as Dongwu? Completely reversed! Right now, the Eighth Route is the Eastern Wu, because the Eighth Route has a stable territory, and his own side is Liu Bei, who has nowhere to stay, and this is not how the Confucians of the Tongue Battle Group act! There is nothing to say! There is nothing to say!

The brigade commander weighed in embarrassment, although this was a straw bag, but he was not stupid enough to give up a choice of survival route for the sake of a one-sentence face, but he was narrow-minded and more concerned about the problem of the 'four companies', and his own brigade was all in vain, and the territory was not there, and the Eighth Route was only four companies, so what could he do? Say that they had territory? Blow it! Subjectively and arbitrarily asserting that the Eighth Route had territory was nonsense, then the decision would be easy to make.

The brigade commander finally threw the military hat in his hand on the table: "Good intentions have been received! The national disaster is at the head, as a soldier, it is his duty to die on the battlefield!"

The tone was proud and his expression was excited, he felt that he had both face and face, how could he know that the Eighth Road in front of him had been killed on the battlefield N many times, and once a month ago, and the injuries at this moment had not healed.

......

Staff Officer Liang chased him to the entrance of the village, his staff officer was not an embroidered pillow, but like Hu Yi in the past, he came up step by step from a big-headed soldier, and it was precisely because of his ability that the brigade commander looked down on this staff officer, and it was precisely because of his ability that the wise brigade commander only promoted him to the staff officer.

The brigade commander who relied on his relationship and status couldn't see anything special about Hu Yi's Tubalu, but Staff Officer Liang could see that not to mention that indifferent temperament, just based on Hu Yi's chic legging style, he could conclude that Hu Yi must have come out of which military threshold, which is not what ordinary people would.

When they met, he didn't shake hands with Hu Yi, the guest, and now that Hu Yi was leaving, he stretched out his hand to Hu Yi: "My name is Liang Wu." ”

Hu Yi looked at the hand handed by the other party, hesitated for a moment, and then shook hands with the other party briefly: "I have already introduced myself." ”

"I want to ...... later. We may still need to help each other. ”

"I'm sorry, but I didn't say it very politely. ”

"That's not your problem, military...... No need to be polite, and no need to save face!"

This sincere sentence made Hu Yi look at the other party quietly for a few seconds, and then said, "Your current situation ...... Not optimistic. Personally, I don't think it's a good place to stay. ”

Liang Wu didn't think so, and his haggard face, which had always been serious, showed a wry smile: "Thank you for reminding me." Unfortunately, I can't treat you to a drink. ”

"I'm glad you said that. ”

"Take care. ”

"Take care. ”

There are only a few words, so simple that they can't be simpler, they don't say goodbye, and then the backs of the two eight-way people walked away in the cold wind, and Staff Officer Liang still stood in the wind and stared, full of sorrow.

......

The other party looked down on these two dirt eight roads, and Tian Sanqi also looked down on those zombie-like sloppy soldiers. He followed behind Hu Yi, walking step by step in the floating snow of the cold wasteland, and after being silent for a long time, he finally said, "They are far behind!"

Hu Yi seemed to be thinking about something, but he still didn't look back and asked, "Than whom?"

Tian Sanqi wanted to talk about the second company, but he was embarrassed, and he wanted to talk about the ninth company, but it was too sensitive, so he had to answer: "I don't think they can even compare with our third company!"

"Than what?"

This question stopped Tian Sanqi, yes, what is it compared to? It can't be compared to standing in a military posture? Is it more enthusiastic than fighting? By the way: "The Third Company at least has fighting spirit! Look at them, they are all like lonely souls and wild ghosts who have lost their souls, can they still fight?" ”

"It depends on whether they want to fight or not. ”

"I ...... Don't understand. ”

"To be a soldier is to die. Pretending not to be afraid of death is also sending death, and if you are tired of living, looking for death is also sending death, what is the difference?"

Tian Sanqi was even more confused, his mental level was limited and he couldn't understand the true meaning of these words. However, he didn't dare to deny Hu Yi, because he knew that Hu Yi was rolling back and forth in death.

"I know you're confused. You, and your company commander, are not in my words. "The 'your company commander' that Hu Yi is referring to is not himself, but Gao Yidao.

"Why?"

"Because of pride. Or rather...... You two are all face-saving ghosts!"

“......”

The wind is still cold, the snow and dust are still gusting, and a bird is flying over the icy sky. In this cold of all things, it seems particularly abrupt and unreal. However, it was really a bird flapping its wings vigorously, and it did not fly very high, just looking at it, it was as if I heard the low whistling of the wings flapping the air. Floating in the cold wind, it flew from the southwest, flew over the two looking eyes on the wasteland, and flew towards the white horizon to the northeast. If you can extend the line of sight indefinitely, the end of the direction in which the birds fly is Meixian.

Tian Sanqi stared blankly at the black dot that slowly disappeared into the distance, forgetting the question just now, and said, "What kind of bird is that? It's as white as snow, I haven't seen it." ”

Hu Yi hadn't seen it before, maybe there had been such a bird flying over him, but he didn't have time to notice it. I could just see the snow-white color of the bird, which was as beautiful as a paper cut.

After I don't know how long, the two of them stopped, lowered their heads, and looked at the strings of footprints on a large sheet of thin snow, which had not yet been blown away by the wind, across the direction they had returned.

"Looks ...... There are more than a dozen, one column, all the way to the southwest!" Tian Sanqi carefully checked the footprints.

Hu Yi was already half-kneeling on the ground, in a position where there was no floating snow, looking at the footprints on the loess, and then looking at the Japanese-style 'Zhao Wujun shoes' he was wearing, and when he lifted his feet, the footprints clearly left 39 iron nail marks, which were exactly the same as the contrasting footprints. Carefully identify all the footprints in the vicinity, all of them are iron hooves!

"It's a devil. ”

Straighten your waist, look back to the south, be silent for a while, and then look north in the wind: "You go back to the group to report the situation first." From now on, be cautious and fast. ”

Tian Sanqi understood that Hu Yi was going to turn around and give them a warning. No matter how unpleasant the two sides look at each other, they are still a family in the face of devils, and they can't help but be reminded. So he nodded at Hu Yi and turned around hurriedly.

With his back to the south, he thought that the downwind road should be warmer, but he didn't feel this way, his hands were still stiff, his feet were still numb, and it was biting cold. The bursts of pale white water vapor had already condensed a light frost on the broad black eyebrows, making the darkness under those thin eyes even deeper.
