"In the early years, there was a famine, and I was still young. I couldn't bear it, and the leaves of the mulberry tree at the door of the house were eaten up. ”

"First my mother died, then my sister, and when it was my turn, my father couldn't stand it anymore, so he sold the last piece of land in the family and sold it to the landlord."

The oldest warrior, who was less than thirty years old, leaned against the walls of the ruined mountain temple and spoke briefly to the strange visitor.

“…… When my mother died, she still held my father's hand and told my father that the last land must not be sold, and if it is not sold, there will still be some people alive in the house this year, and if it is sold, it will not survive next year...... In the end, it was sold. Changed a little food...... I relied on that little grain and grass root bark to survive that year...... Then, when there was no land, my father and I became tenants of the landlord...... It's okay to say that you have become a tenant, and you can barely live...... But at this time, war also broke out. We also had a commander and marshal there, and he collected taxes and grain in the fields, and then this commander was defeated, and another commander came, and then he collected taxes and donations. Half of the food left in the house was also looted.

My father fell on the bed, his whole body was so swollen, the sides of his face were swollen, his eye bubbles were swollen, and his meaning was also muddy.

I don't have the energy to pick the bark anymore, and I don't have the bark anymore...... It was still autumn, and there was a thick coat in the house. I thought about changing it for food, at least before my dad left. ”

The strange comer, covered with the old military uniform, leaned against the temple wall and listened.

The older warrior grabbed his hair and continued.

Next to him, the platoon commander sitting at the entrance of the temple, and the two soldiers leaning against the wall also listened.

"Before I left the village, those beasts came to arrest the strong men, and the landlord led the way, pointed at me, and arrested me."

"I said my dad was still in the house, so I couldn't let me go back and bury my dad. No one answered me, like no one heard. It was indeed noisy, and the other strong men who were arrested were almost crying. ”

Then, like a pig, they were driven all the way to the place where the strong men gathered, and there was no food or clothing on the road, and those who were sick and unaccustomed to the water and soil were beaten to death, and more than half of them died on the way...... I looked like I was going to die, but I survived it...... Then he was sent to the battlefield, and when others shot him, he shot him, and when others left, I followed him, and I was lucky not to die...... once followed those people to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army, probably because it was counter-surrounded.

The army was directly defeated, and I ran away.

However, it didn't go far before the Eighth Route Army was caught again.

Then in the prisoner camp, I learned what the Eighth Route Army was and why we were fighting!

I don't know anything else, so I'll just admit one thing. There is a base in our hometown, and the land in our hometown has been divided...... Although my father and mother are already dead...... If only my mom and dad were still around. ”

“…… I have to fight for the Eighth Route Army! It's okay to let me die...... We can't let the land that has reached our hands be snatched away again! ”

In the end, the elder warrior's eyes lit up, and his conviction was unusually strong.

Then he paused, leaned against the temple wall with his gun, and did not speak again.

The strange visitor paused, looking at the look in the eyes of the older warrior just now, and seemed to be shocked,

I didn't speak for a long time.

Another warrior next to him spoke at this time.

Previously, he had rarely spoken.

Even the platoon commander and the older, youngest soldier spoke one after another,

Most of the time he just listened.

"Then I'll tell you about it. Before joining the army, I was a student, and I believed in our doctrine and joined the army. ”

The warrior's words were short and crisp.

"At first, I was a clerk at the regimental headquarters, and then I applied to become a soldier myself."

"For no reason. It's just that I firmly believe that we can achieve the final victory. And not the brutes across from us. ”

"If there's a team that can win and create a new, beautiful world, I think it has to be us.

And not those who keep the common people in front of them and let the common people block the bullets for them. ”

"I am willing to fight to create a new world, sacrificing everything, including my life!"

"We have nothing! But we must be the masters of the world. ”

The warrior's words were not heavy, but they were unusually firm, as if he were repeating a belief that had been established countless times.

"Definitely!"

The strange visitor also said with an inexplicable affirmation.

The warrior looked at the strange man again, closed his eyes, and leaned against the temple wall.

“…… Well, I'm not that complicated. I just killed my father for the devil, my mother said, the Eighth Route Army is the real army, let me follow the Eighth Route Army to do a good job, I will come. ”

The youngest warrior looked a few years younger than the strange man,

The two comrades-in-arms who looked at him said one after another, so they looked left and right, and said loudly,

"My father used to carry a big bag by the water's edge, but then he crushed his body, and when he came back one day, his ears, nose and eyes were bleeding outward, and he asked the doctor to come and see him, and he said that he couldn't do heavy work anymore, and it wouldn't be long after he worked...... But my dad went and worked for a while, until he couldn't move anymore and others didn't want him...... So he planted vegetables and took them to the city to sell...... When I went to sell vegetables on the street that day, I was hit and killed by a devil driving a car...... The people in the village said that they were playing with my father, and when my father ran to the left, they turned left, and when my father ran to the right, they turned to the right...... In the end, my father had nowhere to run, and the devil still pointed a gun at him, so he could only stand still and hit him.

I was run over by a car and didn't die, but I came back and felt pain at home for two days before I died. ”

The young warrior half-crouched up, half-crouched and said aloud.

The two fighters next to him, although one was resting with his eyes closed, both of them clenched their fists.

“…… My mother was blind from crying...... Later, he also died, and before he died, my mother asked me to join the army, and I came to let us follow the army. ”

The young warrior crouched and said,

"Hey...... Later, I killed a lot of devils. ”

"Comrade, you say, we won in the end, right? Will it win? ”

"I don't know if we're going to win, but I know that if we're gone, there's no hope...... So if we can win, I'll die. ”

The youngest fighter also scratched his head.

"Sure to win!"

The strange man said inexplicably firmly.

"Hey...... You don't know what the future holds, why are you so sure? ”

The young warrior couldn't help but laugh when he saw the strange person answer so surely.

The strange visitor opened his mouth and didn't speak,

"We can definitely win, and we have no reason not to win."

Finally, the warrior next to him said equally firmly.

"Hmmm......"

The young warrior answered,

Then he leaned against the temple wall with his gun in his arms, and raised his head and didn't know what to think.

The last to speak was the platoon commander,

The platoon commander sitting at the gate of the temple, waiting for the three soldiers to finish,

There was silence for a while before he spoke.

"I'm the son of a bandit."

After saying a word, he paused again before the platoon commander said,

"In the early years, my father was still a farmer, and there were a few acres of land in the house, which was barely enough for the house to eat under intensive cultivation."

"Later, natural and man-made disasters, wars, land was gone, food was gone, and my father went up to the mountains to become a bandit.

And my mother died before my father went up the mountain.

The bandits on the mountain robbed the soil under the mountain, the peasants under the mountain had no food to eat, and the bandits on the mountain could not eat enough, as for those rich landlords, they had nothing to do with the army of the commander and marshal, and the bandits on the mountain did not have the ability to rob. Not to mention guns on the mountain, there are not even a few knives, and the robbers are all armed with hoes and flat poles. ”

"Later, more and more bandits went up the mountain, and the bandits who blocked the road and robbed could not survive.

At that moment, I felt an inexplicable strangeness, obviously I was also a person who was forced to live, but I robbed other people who couldn't survive. It is obvious that he is a person who is forced to live by the landlord warlord, and does not resist the landlord, but robs other people who are oppressed by the landlord warlord...... I can't figure it out......

Then my dad died...... The bandits on the mountain were hungry and rushed into the big houses under the mountain to grab food, and they did grab some when there were many people, but my father knocked the people to the ground, and the people behind rushed inside, and the people inside beat out, and when the food was snatched, my father had been trampled to death on the ground.

After that, I went down the mountain and walked all the way...... Finally I saw our troops, and then figured it out, and joined the troops. ”

After the platoon commander finished speaking, the dilapidated mountain temple was quiet again.

“…… Comrade, do you want to join us by asking these questions? ”

It was the youngest warrior who asked this, and with some curiosity in his eyes, he asked aloud.

"Hmmm......"

The strange visitor paused, then nodded.

“…… Comrade, you don't have to listen to his random questions. I see that you are also a rich and noble family, he just asks randomly, if you really have an idea, slowly think about it, and then find our big army.

Wait for dawn and see if we have a chance, and we will still help you take it down the mountain. But we don't know much about the road here......"

The platoon commander took over and was silent again.

In the ruined temple, it was quiet for a while,

Finally, it was the youngest warrior who spoke up.

“…… Well, comrade, can you tell us a little bit more about what the future holds? That's what you just said. ”

"That is, can you tell us more about eating? Just military rations or something. ”

The other two warriors also reopened their eyes and looked at the strange comer.

"Good!"

Cowering in the tattered military clothes covering his body, the strange visitor met the gaze of the three warriors and nodded heavily.

“…… You've all seen the kind of cars in the city, right? ”

"We will have more and better ones in the future, and we can make our own."

"It's that kind of electric light, every house can afford it, every house has the lights on at night, and it's still on in the middle of the night."

"That's nice, there's a world like this...... But what are you doing with the lights on in the middle of the night? ”

"You have what you say, eat supper, I heard that some rich city people eat four meals a day, unlike our country food two meals a day. Comrade, don't you say? ”

"Hmm...... Well. ”

"You said you eat four meals a day, so what should you eat? Comrade, there should be meat. ”

"Yes, duck, chicken, beef, pork, lamb."

"Beef? Do you eat beef? Beef is not good to eat, eat cows, how to plow the ground. Our landlord there has a cow that looks like a treasure. ”

"Eh, you said you, just a little comrade said, it's such a good time, then there must be a special beef cattle to eat, the cattle that plough the land must be different, do you say it's not a little comrade."

"Hmm...... At that time, there was no need for oxen, and machines were used, like cars, to drive in the fields, and machines were used to turn over the soil and plough. ”

"Pull a rake with a car?"

"Well, almost."

"That's good, how fast that car goes, how much faster the ox plows."

"That...... Comrade, you don't have to be so serious...... Actually, I just want to hear what to eat...... Let's talk more about the military rations or something. ”

"At that time, what should the army eat?"

"As the little comrade said just now, there are ready-made and dry food, so there must be a lot to eat......"

As he spoke, the three warriors looked at the strange man again,

I just want this strange person to describe what they eat.

The platoon commander also turned his head a little.

"Hmm...... There is a lot to eat...... Braised pork belly, fried with sugar. ”

"That's not what the chef in a restaurant does."

"Hmm...... There is also back to the pot meat, as well as fried meat, roast chicken, ......"

"Is there any rice? With so many dishes, the rice must be fragrant. Do you have any white-flour steamed buns? ”

"Yes, white rice, a big pot of rice, steamed buns are also served, you can eat whatever you want......"

"Gollum ......"

A soldier's stomach rang and he swallowed again.

The strange man stopped talking.

"Why don't you talk about the rest?"

"It's okay, it's okay, just talk about this, hehe, I like to hear it...... It sounds like a dream. ”

"Little comrade, you spoke so well! In our future country, everyone will definitely be able to eat white flour steamed buns and white rice. A country that is also warmly dressed! ”

"Comrade, you are ...... Hey, I feel a little more reason to fight again...... Our future country will definitely be able to build like this...... Although you say that it feels pretty ...... It feels like a long way off, but we're definitely going to do it......"

"That...... Comrade, go on...... I feel like I'm about to smell that smell...... I can't eat it, but when I hear you say, I'll eat it."

"Okay, I'll tell you ......"

"There are also fried shredded potatoes, fried with sour chili peppers, sour and hot shredded potatoes, fried in a full pot...... When the training was late, everyone lined up to serve a meal and eat ......."

"You can eat as much as you want."

"Then I don't have to eat! Hey, there's so much to eat, I can't get up. ”

"Fool! Comrade that person said that he ate every day at that time, and you still have such a big appetite? ”

"Yes, yes...... Hey hey ......"

The three soldiers leaned against the temple wall, and the platoon leader sat at the temple gate, all eating seriously.

I couldn't help but follow the words of this strange person and imagine beautifully.

“…… And then what...... Speaking of food, talking about dressing, what was the military uniform like at that time, should it have changed? ”

"It must have changed, is it possible not to change clothes after so many years?"

"Well, it's changed...... But our stars haven't changed, and the pentagram will always be there. ”

"That's not ...... The clothes must have been beautiful then, right? ”

"Well, pretty! It's beautiful! ”

"Hey...... Comrade, you are so sure of this, as if you have really seen it. We don't dare to think about it in our dreams. ”

"You know, comrade, I don't even know if we can win...... But I'm not afraid, even if we lose, there will be future generations...... Sooner or later, we can win because we are right. Do you say, comrade? ”

"That's right! Homosexuals! ”

……

"Comrade? Homosexuals? ”

"Why haven't I seen that little comrade, he was still there not long ago!"

"Look for it! Look around. ”

"I didn't find it...... Maybe it's dawn, I know the way, and I go down the mountain. ”

"Hmm...... That could be. Then let's go too, and hurry up to find a meeting with the big army. ”

“…… You say, is that little comrade said that the future is possible? ”

……

"Comrade? Homosexuals? ”

"Wake up, wake up...... Why did you sleep here, why did you sleep in front of the grave at night? ”

"It's all foggy and dewy, you'll get sick if you sleep here all night, get up quickly, go home."
