The red morning sun jumped out of the horizon, and the morning haze darkened the lower half, so the morning haze and floating clouds floating in the distance were also dyed red, cutting the morning sun in two. In fact, in the eyes of those who watch them, they have merged into one, but they don't know, thinking that the morning sun is still the morning sun, the floating clouds are still the floating clouds, and the haze is still the haze, and they all think that the morning glow belongs to them.
Two black buttons are adorned in front of the neat gray military cap. Black eyebrows and narrow eyes are hidden under the rolled brim of the hat. Inside the blank mouth, a soldier stands calmly, gazing at the red glow in the east. His resolute cheeks reflect the glow. I don't know whether he is looking at the rising sun, or the rising sun is looking at him.
The Hunshui River flows quietly in the sunset glow, the water surface is shimmering with golden light, the morning mist has not yet dissipated, floating thinly and lightly on the river surface, illuminated by the rising sun in the east, becoming even whiter. On the bank of the river, a lush honey locust tree accompanies a lonely beautiful figure in the mist.
"... I broke my promise... But I didn't do it for him... I didn't forget what I wanted to insist on... I just did it for the Independence Group... I really did it for the Independence Group... Do you believe it... Do you believe it..."
In the morning mist, she spoke softly to the river, but the river seemed to have not yet awakened, and remained silent, without giving her any answer. So, she cried. All she could see was her lonely back, but no tears or sound.
It was dawn, and the roof tiles were also bright. I pushed open the door and saw the guards cleaning the yard. The fresh morning air flowed in. I walked back to the table and looked at the "Investigation Report" which had been placed on the table. I took a deep breath, and finally took out the pen from my jacket pocket, unscrewed the pen cap, and signed the name of the political commissar.
The melodious sound of the military bugle, repeated over and over in the sunset glow, reverberated, awakened the sleeping soul, and announced the dawn. I opened my eyes, rejoicing in hearing the soul-stirring melody again. Even though I was still lying in this four-bed intensive care unit, I no longer felt wronged.
I secretly told myself that I wanted to learn that, to become that, so that I could hear it every day and proudly wake up the world, even if I was small.
The doctor gradually opened her lazy eyes and finally realized that she had another dream, a dream about being pregnant and crying with happiness because of it. Unfortunately, it was another dream this time. She had been having such dreams since she got married for the first time, and she would dream about them till now and forever.
I wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes with a pillowcase, looked at the ceiling, then looked outside, then forgot about the dream and prepared to welcome the day.
A shadow was stretched long by the morning sun, spreading on the beach by the river. Following the shadow, it became thinner and thinner. At the end, a girl with two pigtails sat on the beach, looking quietly at the east. She had not slept well the previous night, and sat there before dawn, until the distant mountains were illuminated.
I really want to know what happened to the fox. I am worried that the cunning fox spirit will make him leave. If that is the case, let the fox live in the wine station, force him to build a home here, force him to farm, force him to marry a wife and have children, anyway, he can't run away. The mountain is so high and the sky is so big, how can I find him if he leaves
The more he thought about it, the more he felt like Zhuge Liang. The more he thought about it, the more reliable he felt. So his beautiful big, melancholy eyes gradually began to light up, just like the sun, but brighter and brighter, and even his eyebrows stretched out. So he patted his butt and stood up, walked to the water's edge, bent down, searched carefully, picked up a beautiful flat pebble, and threw it hard into the bright river surface.
Seeing the pebbles jumping lightly far away and the continuous waves stirred up on the water, a red smile appeared on the girl's face.
When it comes to how to fight, reconnaissance comes first. Ma Liang needs to send someone to Dabei Village to investigate. Let's do it right away. Let's go to the third shift now.
He clapped his hands and prepared to go back, when he suddenly noticed a figure flash by the bushes on the other side of the river. When he looked over, the bushes had stopped shaking, as if nothing had happened.
In an instant, her beautiful big eyes immediately stood up, and her little hand instinctively reached into her pocket to grasp the handle of the gun. Thinking of the open beach behind her, she did not take out the gun immediately.
His mind raced, and he finally loosened his grip on the gun handle, lowered his raised eyebrows, stopped staring at the opposite bank, stretched lazily facing the rising sun, then squatted down, scooped up some river water to quickly wash his face a few times, then stood up, twisted and turned and walked back, kicking the sand under his feet as he walked.
As soon as he entered the woods, he immediately ran as fast as he could. He saw Liu Jianqiang leading his men to do morning exercises. He immediately grabbed him and whispered: "Emergency! Immediately send your men to hide in the south of the woods and guard the other side!"
Liu Jianqiang's head was full of questions: "What's the emergency?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? We'll talk later. Why don't you go now? Remember, stay hidden and be alert!"
Then he ignored Liu Jianqiang and ran to the dormitory cabin of Class 1. He pushed open the door and said directly: "Prepare for battle!"
Oh my god! The eight grown men in class 1 had just lazily gotten up, some of them hadn't even put on their pants yet, when the little girl suddenly rushed in. All the naked men in the room were so panicked that they had to cover themselves up. First, everyone fell to the ground in a mess, and then they reacted: "Fight?"
He no longer cared about covering himself or putting on his clothes. He just grabbed his gun and rushed out the door in tattered clothes.
…
At noon, in the woods of the wine station, sweaty soldiers were still hiding and monitoring the three sides of the shore. The nine platoons had been on alert for a whole morning, but so far they had seen nothing and nothing had happened.
There were five people sitting under the big tree in the middle of the open space, four squad leaders and Xiao Hongying.
"Did you see it wrong?" Liu Jianqiang asked.
"It's definitely true. There is definitely someone there. Don't you believe in my eyesight?" Xiao Hongying replied.
Luo Fugui said dissatisfiedly: "Come on, I think you have done too many bad things and you are suspicious. I have been tossing around since early morning and I am sorry for talking nonsense with you!"
"Could it be possible that he was just a passerby?" Shi Cheng expressed his opinion.
"I don't know about that. The glance was too brief. I can only conclude that it was a person. What should we do? You four capable people will decide."
Ma Liang grabbed his hat and fanned himself, then continued, "As long as we are sure it is someone, we can't take it lightly. It could be a passerby, or a scout. It's hard to say whether it's a plainclothes team or a bandit. We must think of the worst."
"That's right." Liu Jianqiang immediately agreed with Ma Liang: "We can't relax until this matter is clear. My suggestion is to cross the river and conduct reconnaissance."
"We don't know the enemy's situation at all. There are only mountains and forests on the other side. How can it be easy to investigate? Besides, if the enemy is not alone, he must be prepared. We crossed the river without any clues. What if we are ambushed?"
Ma Liang's objection made Liu Jianqiang very unhappy: "According to what you said, do we have to be on alert all the time? When will the alert end?"
Ma Liang thought for a moment before saying, "I think... if that person is really a scout, if the people on the other side have intentions towards us, they wouldn't cross the river in broad daylight. We need to be prepared at night."
Shi Cheng nodded: "I don't think it's likely to be the Japanese or the plainclothes team, because we have sentries on the Shanhui route in the north, and it has always been normal. If they found this place and wanted to attack us, it would be convenient for them to come from the north. What the girl saw was most likely bandits."
"My opinion is to use static to dynamic. We should only post secret sentries during the day and start the ambush tonight. We should wait for three days. If we catch them, they must be bandits. If we don't catch them, it means the situation is not as bad as we thought. Maybe they are just civilians passing by." Ma Liang raised his head and looked at the four people around him.
Shi Cheng agreed. Luo Fugui hoped that the meeting would end soon so he nodded without hesitation. In this situation, it was meaningless for Liu Jianqiang to raise any more opinions. If the other party was really a bandit, it would be more difficult to detect than the Japanese devils. So he finally expressed his agreement.
The physical alert of the ninth platoon became a secret sentry alert. The smoke from cooking rose again. After being hungry for a long time, they had to eat and build houses as usual, but the work of maintaining the Qingshan Village and crops was suspended, and swimming training was suspended to prevent changes. Except for the smoke from cooking in the air, the peninsula forest was still a forest, and nothing else could be seen.
