Su Qingyun's mood dropped instantly, and looking at the birds outside the window, her eyes were a little melancholy.

The second brother doesn't know where he is now, is he injured? When will I be able to come back? They don't know all this.

The family was immersed in the joy of her imminent marriage, and it seemed that everyone avoided talking about it, but Su Qingyun knew that they had been thinking about it in their hearts, otherwise, there would not be this invitation that could not be sent.

She retracted her gaze, looked at the invitation, and was silent for a long time, until she heard the voice of the uncle and them coming back, she woke up like a dream, and put the invitation into the drawer as quickly as possible.

Su Qingyun didn't want everyone to feel emotional after seeing this invitation, especially if she didn't want her second aunt to see it, everyone could have avoided mentioning the second brother in front of her, if she saw it, she would definitely cry again.

"Yunyun, come and see, we bought a lot of things and came back." Annette Li greeted her.

"It's coming!" Su Qingyun answered, walked over, looked at a large pile of things on the ground, and was dumbfounded, "Why did you buy so many things?" ”

"That's not much." Zhang Xinlan took a breath and replied, "You think, you have to arrange it everywhere, you have to buy firecrackers, melon seeds, peanuts, candies and everything, and all kinds of messes." ”

Qin Ying smiled, "Marriage is not a casual thing, we have to do it best." ”

She and Aimin are such a daughter, Qingyun, they definitely want to give her the best.

"That's right." Su Aimin came over, "I received a telegram from the army today, they received the news, and they will come by train tomorrow." ”

In order to save time, Su Aimin informed Su Congjun that they also sent a telegram.

"That's good." Wu Guixiang nodded, "My sister is married, and those of them who are elder brothers can't be absent no matter what." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xinlan's originally bright eyes instantly dimmed by two points.

Li Xiulian noticed it and hurriedly changed the topic, "Let's order something first and see if there is anything missing." ”

"Okay."

Zhang Xinlan responded, but her expression still faded.

When the family saw it, they all sighed in their hearts and thought in unison.

Congwen, when will he come back?

————————

"Xiao Su, you can eat some more."

On the mountainside, in a freshly dug trench, Brother Zhang took out a moldy steamed bun and handed it to Su Congwen, who was wrapped in dirty gauze, his face was pale, his lips were chapped, and his cheeks were sunken.

"We can't find anything to eat in the company, and if we continue like this, we will gnaw on grass roots and bark."

"You eat quickly, you can pad your stomach a little."

Su Congwen shook his head and refused, "I won't eat it, Brother Zhang, you are a wounded, you eat it yourself and nourish your body." ”

His condition is not much better than that of Brother Zhang, although he has not suffered any major injuries, but there are countless small wounds on his body, and his once white face is also full of scars, and a hideous scar at the corner of his eye is still bright red flesh, obviously he has just healed, and the whole person has lost a lot of weight, but the eyes are still amazingly bright.

"What wounded?" Brother Zhang sneered, "As long as I can still get up and fight, I am not a wounded, I can still rush to the front, anyway, my life, I would have been gone for a long time." ”

"It's good to be a martyr, at least if I'm gone, my wife and children will be managed by the state for the rest of my life, even if I leave, I won't worry."

"Maybe it's a little regrettable that I didn't get to see my girl grow up."

He sighed softly, after three years of fighting and so many people died, he was already numb, and he had no luxury for a long time to go back alive, and the only thing to remember was his family.

"Brother Zhang, don't say that." Su Congwen said softly, "The company commander said that as long as we hold this bridge and let the troops in the rear pass safely, even if our mission is completed, we can go home." ”

Defending the bridge at the foot of the mountain was the last task of their company.

"Go home?" Brother Zhang's eyes were stunned, "Can you really go home?" ”

He smiled bitterly, "We only have about thirty people, can we really hold on?" ”

"Yes!" Su Congwen's tone was firm, "I must be able to!" ”

On the battlefield, only those who have firm ideas and beliefs can live longer.

"I hope so." Brother Zhang's voice was light.

Su Congwen frowned, sensing that something was wrong, and hurriedly checked his injury, "Brother Zhang, is the wound cracked?" You wait, I'll go get you some medicine. ”

He was about to get up.

"Don't toss." Brother Zhang stopped him, "It's been out of medicine for a long time." ”

"It's okay, I can still bear it, I can't die." He gasped and replied.

Su Congwen could only sit back in silence.

"By the way, was the body of the fifth child put away yesterday?" Brother Zhang asked suddenly.

"Put it away." Su Congwen replied, "Don't worry, we'll take them home." ”

Battlefield discipline does not allow the throwing away of a single wounded, still less the loss of a single martyr's body; in the course of the battle, as long as conditions permit, it is necessary to report to the authorities every day the strength of the personnel and equipment, as well as the attrition and attrition of personnel.

On the battlefield, everyone who sacrificed, they are eligible to return to their homeland, even if it is death,

Not only Lao Wu, but also thousands of soldiers like Lao Wu, they will all take them home, and there will be no less.

The mountain breeze blew gently, there was silence all around, only the sound of birdsong in the intervals, this was a rare moment of tranquility for them, but the muscles of the two were still tense, and their vigilance was not slackened at all, ready to fight at any time, which was the quality and ability that a warrior must have.

"Xiao Su." Brother Zhang suddenly spoke again, "If it's time, I'm the same as the fifth child, you also remember, you must send me home." ”

"I don't want to die here."

"I've already thought about it, when the time comes, I won't be under the yellow horn tree at the entrance of our village, that tree has lived for hundreds of years, I am buried there, and it must be a long life in the next life."

"Brother Zhang, don't say it, you'll be fine!" Su Congwen's eyes were red, he really couldn't listen to it anymore.

"Who can say for sure if this man is alive? We're doing it with our heads hanging from the waistband of our pants, so it's good to think about it. ”

Brother Zhang's tone was relieved, and he seemed to have looked down on life and death.

Su Congwen pursed his dry lips and was speechless.

"Bang!"

A gunshot broke the silence of the moment.

The expressions of the two people who were still depressed just now changed, and they instantly ejected themselves, picked up their guns, and entered the battle state.

"Bang ......"

Another flurry of rapid gunfire.

"The enemy is coming, fight, fight!"

The battle began in an instant.
