Qiao Nianchao and Fang Wei's first love naturally surfaced in the air-raid shelter in early autumn. Years of crushes finally came to fruition, and they were like two trains entering the station, calmly gasping for breath. They forgot the time and place in the bomb shelter, and searched each other with their young bodies.

When they walked out of the bomb shelter, the sun was already setting. The trumpets of getting off work in the compound of the military region had just sounded, and the soldiers who had been busy and nervous in the military district building for a long time hurriedly walked home, and the family members who worked outside the hospital also returned to the courtyard one after another, their bags full of red, green, and green fruits and vegetables.

The screen was ripped up on the open-air court, two fighters were adjusting the projector, and the open-air movie every Wednesday night was thundering and ready to start.

Zhang Weiping has been living in the compound for a long time, and everything he sees is so fresh. At this time, he stood on the court, standing upright, and holding a lit "Yingchun" brand cigarette in his hand. He looks chic and mature, with underage children in front of him and behind him, some moving their chairs to occupy their seats, and a few playing the game of police catching thieves.

Zhang Weiping looked at these children with a smile and a kind expression, and seemed to see the shadow of his teenage life again at that moment. Of course, now he doesn't take everything to heart, that is, he is already the leader of an organization. In the evening when the sunset was about to pass, Zhang Weiping felt good.

At this moment, Qiao Nianchao and Fang Wei passed by the stadium one after the other, and they found Zhang Weiping, and Zhang Weiping also saw them. The smile on the corner of Zhang Weiping's mouth was enriched, Zhang Weiping was one grade higher than Qiao Nianchao and Fang Wei, they both studied in the same school, and they lived in the same military compound, they were familiar with each other, but when they were in school, because Zhang Weiping was one year higher than them, they rarely interacted with them. However, the incident of Zhang Weiping running away from home and sneaking across the border still caused a sensation in the entire military compound. It's just that after that incident, Zhang Weiping disappeared in the compound of the military region.

A few years have passed, and they have both grown up, and they look at each other strangely and familiarly in the first moment. In this process, Zhang Weiping was well-informed after all, and he also had an advantage in age, and soon gained the upper hand in this kind of scrutiny. He walked over enthusiastically, and actually stretched out his hand, he was used to dealing with people by shaking hands. Obviously, Qiao Nianchao was not used to shaking hands, and was finally caught by Zhang Weiping passively. For a moment, his face was a little feverish.

Zhang Weiping let go of Qiao Nianchao's hand, and quickly took out a box of "Yingchun" brand cigarettes from his pocket. The tin foil on the cigarette case sparkles in the afterglow of the autumn sun. Qiao Nianchao subconsciously refused, and his face suddenly turned red to the root of his ears. He has just graduated from high school for only two months, and he has not yet fully entered the society, and in front of Zhang Weiping, who is already very social, he seems a little helpless and embarrassed for a while.

Qiao Nianchao faced Zhang Weiping with some appreciation and some hostility at that moment. Zhang Weiping has completely occupied the psychological advantage, he took a puff of cigarette very elegantly, and spit out a puff of smoke rings skillfully, and then asked in the tone of a leader who cares about his subordinates: Graduated?

Qiao Nianchao nodded, Zhang Weiping's series of actions had completely crushed Qiao Nianchao's self-confidence established due to the victory of his first love. He left Zhang Weiping as if he had run away, Zhang Weiping seemed to have something to say to Qiao Nianchao, but Qiao Nianchao left suddenly. He stared at Qiao Nianchao's figure with an imperceptible sneer on the corner of his mouth. In this process, he only nodded to Fang Wei, in the memory of three years ago, Fang Wei was still a little girl, and in a blink of an eye, the little girl grew up, of course, it was still far from maturity. He stared at Fang Wei's back, and subconsciously thought of Li Yaling, the barefoot doctor of the Fangmagou Brigade. Li Yaling is just 20 years old this year and is the daughter of the branch secretary of the Fangmagou Brigade. As soon as he thought of Li Yaling, Zhang Weiping's heart moved.

What was the open-air movie that night, Qiao Nianchao had no impression at all, his body leaned against a tree, but his eyes were attracted by Zhang Weiping. Zhang Weiping was standing not far away, he was talking to some older people, some of them were serving as educated youths in the queue, some were serving as soldiers, and they were all going home for vacation. They all had cigarettes in their mouths, and the fire on the cigarette butts flickered in the darkness, and they talked and laughed, and they looked very mature. The content of their words sounded distant and unfamiliar to Qiao Nianchao.

Qiao Nianchao didn't want to focus on these people, but he couldn't control himself, his ears and eyes were drawn over again and again, and the feature films on the screen were just decorations in front of him. Fang Wei was standing under a tree not far from him, she glanced at Qiao Nianchao with her eyes from time to time, he felt Fang Wei's gaze, but he couldn't concentrate on responding to Fang Wei's gaze. Fang Wei was eating snacks, her appearance and style were still like a little girl, her first love did not make her mature, but Qiao Nianchao was attracted by Zhang Weiping's maturity that night. How seductive it is to be a mature man! That early autumn evening, Qiao Nianchao was deeply impressed by the charm of a mature man. That night, he remembered the gorgeous quote that no tree grows in a greenhouse.

After the open-air movie ended, Qiao Nianchao took Fang Wei's hand in the dark, hid in the shadows of a building, and gritted his teeth and said: I want to be a soldier.

His determination infected Fang Wei, who was in the excitement of her first love, and she also said excitedly: Wherever you go, I will go.

Fang Wei is not a very assertive child, he listens to his parents at home and his teachers at school, and he has hardly done anything out of the ordinary since he was a child. Her parents were very worry-free about her, and her teachers were also reassuring to her. Now that she and Qiao Nianchao have come together, she naturally has to listen to Qiao Nianchao. Because at this moment in her heart, Qiao Nianchao is already her only, and Qiao Nianchao's decision is her decision. Fang Wei that night was very moving in Qiao Nianchao's eyes.

Qiao Nianchao's father is the deputy chief of staff of the military region, has participated in the Anti-Japanese Federation, fought three major battles, and fought in North Korea. Every time he fights, he has to give birth to a child, and when he gave birth to the eldest Nian Liao, he had just finished the Liaoshen Campaign, and later gave birth to Nian Ping and Nian Huai. In the thinking logic of Deputy Chief of Staff Qiao, fighting a war is to train a man's blood, and now that there is no war to fight, he has never given birth again. He misses those times of war.

In peacetime, Deputy Chief of Staff Joe let the children join the army in one go. In the end, only Nian Chao, who had just graduated from high school, was left. In fact, Qiao Nianchao did not make up his mind to join the army is just one of his own determinations, in the plan of his father Qiao, deputy chief of staff, Nianchao can only take the road of joining the army, but this year's conscription work has not yet begun, in the early autumn in the military compound, on the tree or on the telephone pole, such propaganda slogans have been written on red and green paper, such as: "One person is a soldier, the whole family is glorious", "Being a soldier for the family is peace" and so on.

A few days later, the registration for joining the army began, and Qiao Nianchao took the household book and successfully registered in the neighborhood committee of the military compound.

Fang Wei had trouble with the registration. Fang Wei's father was the head of the logistics department of the military region, and his mother was the director of a local hospital. Fang Wei's mother was also a soldier before, working as a doctor in the army's field hospital, but after the Korean War, some field hospitals were abolished, and her mother was transferred to the local area at that time. Soon, my mother became the director of a local hospital. Fang Wei's family has three children, the eldest is an older sister, who has been a soldier for eight years, and now works as a confidential officer in a military department. My brother has been in the countryside for almost three years, and my mother is actively transferring my brother back these days, and the receiving unit has been found, which is the Municipal Health Bureau. The director in charge of logistics had already agreed, and when his brother had completed the formalities for returning to the city, he would let him learn how to drive a car, and then drive for the leader.

These things are all worried about by my mother, but my brother's business has not been done yet, and Fang Wei's business has been put aside for the time being. Mother had already planned, their hospital was going to train a group of nurses recently, and her mother had already registered for Fang Wei, waiting for the training class to start.

When Fang Wei said that she wanted to sign up for the army, her mother resolutely objected, her reason was that all the children in the family who were soldiers had joined the queue, and the party's call had been completed. Whether it is a soldier or a queue, in my mother's feeling, it is all temporary, and in the end I have to integrate into society, just like I have been a soldier for so many years, and I still have to change jobs in the end? She doesn't want her youngest child to take another detour, she wants her child to go directly to the local work in one step. She is engaged in medical work, and she also hopes that Fang Wei can work in the hospital, become a nurse first, have the opportunity to study again, and slowly become a doctor.

In order to make Fang Wei die and become a soldier, her mother simply put the door book in her briefcase and took it with her when she went to and from work. Without the household registration book, Fang Wei would not be able to become a soldier no matter what, and in the days when the conscription work began, Fang Wei was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

In his mother's impression, Fang Wei is a sensible and obedient good child, but when it comes to being a soldier, the quiet Fang Wei is as strong as a cow. In those days, she didn't think about tea and food, and pestered her mother to sign up for the army wholeheartedly. The mother is very busy, she has no time to talk nonsense with her children, she leaves early at work every day, and she doesn't pay attention to Fang Wei's affairs after work. In this family, the mother is the head of the family, and the father never cares about the children's affairs. Fang Wei found his father and expressed his thoughts. My father was a kind little old man, white and clean. The father said, "Girl, go to your mother and tell you to go, and your mother agrees to let you be a soldier, so you will go."

However, how easy is it to do the work of a mother?
