At midnight, the door was slammed loudly. Hu Yi, who lived in the outer room and had not slept at all, got up and went out. The person who came was Wu Shitou, who was standing outside the door panting and not saying a word.
After a while, a figure nimbly climbed over the wall, walked through the yard to the front of the house and gently knocked on the window: "Brother, are you here?"
Hu Yi sat up from the bed, and went downstairs with Wu Shitou, who was sleeping in the outer room, to open the door. In came the dusty Ma Liang.
After lighting the lamp, Ma Liang came to the table and took a swig of water. He put down the broken teacup and wiped his mouth: "I met Li Xiang and his friends on the way here. He said the girl is..."
Before Ma Liang could finish his words, the door curtain of the inner room was lifted, and a pair of pigtails swung out, shouting: "Shut up! You are not allowed to say that! You are not allowed to say that!"
Hu Yi had already struggled to get the general outline of the battle from Wu Shitou, but he didn't know the situation of the third squad. Now that Ma Liang had arrived, it seemed that everything was fine with the ninth platoon, and he could now feel relieved.
After seeing Hu Yi's state and the girl's behavior, Ma Liang was relieved. What Li Xiang said was right. The little girl taught all the soldiers in the regiment a lesson about women. Physiology is really amazing. Looking at the little girl's red face, which was rare in a century, Ma Liang couldn't help but smile.
Soon after, the lights went out and the two rooms fell silent again.
As time went by and the sky gradually brightened, there was a knock on the door again.
Ma Liang got up and opened the door. The person standing outside was Xu Xiao, whose face was covered in dirt.
After Ma Liang left the bar, Liu Jianqiang organized a small meeting with Shi Cheng and Chen Chong. Without his mortal enemy Ma Liang and his stumbling block Luo Fugui, he finally became the legitimate acting platoon leader of the ninth platoon. The first thing Liu did after taking office was to send Xu Xiao back to the regiment to report on the battle and the list of captured items.
Xu Xiao entered the regiment headquarters early in the morning and reported the situation to the regiment commander. Now he ran to see Hu Yi and the girl. This was the reason why he appeared outside the gate.
After listening to Xu Xiao's story, Hu Yi put on his coat and buttoned it up. Since the regiment commander and political commissar had been woken up, he should go to the regiment headquarters now. He was too lazy to lie here as a wounded soldier. He put on his military cap and opened the door, feeling fresh air.
The girl is fine, the ninth row is fine, everything is fine, there has never been a happier time than now, why bother about what others think, just be content.
He walked straight, with his chest held high, his bronze face as cold as usual. Some soldiers passed by in front of him without daring to glance at him. Only after he passed by could he feel them laughing and pointing at him from behind. Even so, it could not dilute the freshness of the air.
He walked across the regiment's courtyard, entered the open hall door, and stood at attention and saluted.
"Why are you here if you don't want to concentrate on recuperating?" the political commissar spoke first.
"The injury is healed." Hu Yi stood straight, looking straight ahead.
Captain Lu, who was washing his face, grabbed a towel and wiped the water off, saying unhappily, "You're well so quickly! Since you said so, then don't be a wounded soldier. Do you know where to stay? Hmm?"
"Know!"
"As a commander, you have abandoned your entire team. You, Hu Yi, really made me proud! Get out! Get out now! I don't want to see you now!" Captain Lu threw the towel into the washbasin, and the water for washing his face splashed all over the basin.
"Yes." Hu Yi turned around and strode towards the confinement room.
When Hu Yi disappeared outside the gate, Captain Lu's angry expression instantly disappeared, and he returned to the washbasin to wring out the towel: "Hehehehe... The air this morning is really good, why do I feel it's so good? Hey, Lao Ding, do you feel it?"
Ding Deyi smiled slightly: "Isn't it like this every day? I don't think it's anything special."
"You really are... You wouldn't believe me if I said you were stupid because of reading so much. Heavy machine gun, I have a heavy machine gun! The night before yesterday I dreamed of a big fish, and it came true today. I wonder who will dare to laugh at my independent regiment for not having a big gun in the future! Hahaha..."
"..." Ding Deyi was speechless. It turned out that he had not forgotten about Nurse Xi Shi!
…
Wu Shitou brought back five breakfasts from the kitchen, placed four on the table in the room, and took one to the confinement room.
Xu Xiao sat at the table, eating ravenously, while Xiao Hongying sat on the other side, clumsily braiding her own hair, without any of the cleverness she had when she was handling a gun.
Ma Liang paced back and forth in the room with his arms crossed. One problem after another, why did the bad luck of the Ninth Platoon never end? The platoon leader finally returned to the regiment, but he was put in solitary confinement again. The whole regiment hadn't laughed enough about the girl's incident, and the platoon leader became the focus again. How embarrassing! Runny Nose was even more unpromising. It was okay to satisfy his desire to be a platoon leader. It was right to report the battle situation truthfully, but why did he give such a detailed list of captured items? At least make up for the Ninth Platoon first. If you really expect Li Suanpan's stingy supply department to make up for the Ninth Platoon, you will lose your day.
"Girl, how much can the captain leave for us in this situation?"
Xiao Hongying impatiently cleaned the hair on the broken comb while answering: "You count on the regiment commander? I dare say he won't even replenish the bullets we have consumed! Not to mention the lack of guns in the first company and the guard platoon, most of the people in the fourth company are looking to the supply department with nothing. How much do you think he can leave for us!"
"Ugh—Runny Nose... this mule is really something, where did his little cleverness go? He actually let Runny Nose become the acting platoon leader." Ma Liang complained to himself, staggered a few steps, and asked the girl again: "I can only stare at this kind of thing, there is nothing I can do. The regiment commander and the political commissar both feel sorry for you, otherwise... Can you go to the regiment commander to discuss it?"
"In this matter, the regiment commander is even stingier than Li Suanpan. If I discuss it with him, maybe I can only keep a few dozen more bullets. What's the point? Besides... I don't want to see anyone now!"
The last sentence is the real reason of the little girl, right? Ma Liang looked helplessly at the careless little girl with pigtails and sighed. He couldn't imagine how thick-skinned she could be now.
After much effort, the braids were finally tied asymmetrically. The little girl grabbed a small broken mirror and looked at it. She couldn't help curling her lips. It was still a little crooked. Forget it. She was too lazy to tie it again. That's it! She took the bowl on the table and prepared to eat breakfast. At the same time, she said to Ma Liang, "There are ways."
Ma Liang stared fiercely, waiting for the next words without blinking.
"A general is not always able to obey orders from his sovereign when on a mission abroad." These were the words Hu Yi had taught her.
"You...are you being a rogue again?"
"Do you have any way to avoid being a rogue?"
"This... that depends on who is the general. Runny Nose is facing the platoon leader, do you expect him to play rogue?"
"You should go back and be the platoon leader."
"Me? Forget it. The platoon leader is suspended from duty. How can I be the platoon leader without orders? I can't guarantee that I can convince Shi Cheng and Chen Chong when I go back to the meeting. In the end, they will each do their own thing. Besides, how dare I play such a rogue with the regiment? You are the best person for this kind of thing. Girl, go back now. You will definitely be the platoon leader. You are the best person for this job."
Xiao Hongying really didn't want to go out during the day recently. Besides, the outcome of the fox's treatment was still unknown. She was worried about leaving the group. After thinking carefully for a while, she said to Ma Liang: "You should go back. You can say this to Runny Nose..."
"But... I'm still unsure. After all, playing rogue is... "
"You don't have to be afraid of this. The regiment commander will definitely send people from the first company to get the things. I'll try to get Tiedan to take his platoon. Remember, you have to make arrangements for Tiedan and give him the full set I promised. The Type 99 rifle will be given to the first company on the spot, along with 500 bullets. The canned food will be divided into three packages, one for Doctor Zhou, one for the regiment commander and the political commissar, and the rest for the supply department. I can take care of the guard platoon, but the only ones who will complain are the rookies in the fourth company. The regiment commander only cares about the heavy machine gun, and he will forget everything else as long as the heavy machine gun arrives in the regiment. You should talk to Sun Cui in advance..."
Ma Liang was speechless after hearing these words. It turned out that being a rogue also required skills and capital. People who didn't know the girl thought that she was spoiled and arrogant, but they didn't know that she used all her evil tricks on this. She was truly the most experienced veteran in the independent regiment.
“… If this doesn’t work, the worst that can happen is that I will go to the regiment headquarters and make a scene! Just lock them up, the foxes are already in anyway, so what if there are a few more?” At the end of her words, the little girl’s braids even stood up.
Ma Liang was completely relieved. The girl was right. Hu Yi had already been put in jail, so what if there were a few more? For the sake of the Ninth Platoon's better life, why should I, a small squad leader, be afraid of being beaten? Besides, this might not be impossible.
The plan was set, and Ma Liang did not hesitate. He grabbed a few pieces of steamed bread from the table and stuffed them into his bag. He had to set off now. He had to get back to the wine station before the regiment sent anyone.
Seeing Ma Liang leave the door, the little girl asked Xu Xiao, "Have you finished eating?"
"Um."
"Go find your former 'Instructor Tiedan' and tell him I have something urgent to tell you. Um... Also, ask Xiaodou to come over here too. Don't let anyone else know."
Then Xu Xiao wiped his mouth and ran out the door.
Now, the shameful Comrade Hongying finally began to enjoy her breakfast happily.
…
Liu Jianqiang's shouting woke up the sleeping bear. The bear rubbed his sleepy eyes and came to the window. It was already morning, and the soldiers, led by Platoon Leader Liu, were doing morning exercises in the open space of the wine station.
No matter how much he thought, he never expected that Ma Liang would be sent away by Runny Nose before he even entered the door of the wine station. Luo Fugui was locked up for an entire afternoon and a whole night, and his hope that Ma Liang would help him regain his freedom was completely dashed.
"Runny Nose, come here!" Xiong shouted at the open space in the wine station.
After a while, Liu Jianqiang appeared outside the window.
"Is it time to open the door?"
"No, three days means three days. This is what the three of us decided at a meeting. Do you think discipline is a joke?"
"Damn it, do you really think you are a nobody? I tell you, if I really want to play, you can't stop me!"
"You come out and try without my order!" Liu Jianqiang raised his eyebrows very high and turned back to supervise the training.
"I..." The bear who was about to jump out of the window looked at the soldiers on the open space and gave up the idea reluctantly. A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him.
He lay at the window and looked around boredly for a while, his eyes stopped at the nearby kitchen door, where Sun Cui was busy making breakfast, going in and out. The bear seemed to remember something and couldn't help laughing.
"What are you trying to say by making those faces? I'm busy." Sun Cui appeared outside the window.
Luo Fugui glanced towards the open space, then turned back and said to Sun Cui in a low voice: "Sister Sun, please help me. They said the village needs me to work."
“Hehehe… I’m busy as hell!” Sun Cui turned and walked towards the kitchen.
"A box of canned food."
Sun Cui stopped, turned around, and looked at the bear in the window in confusion. More than 50 boxes of canned food had been moved from the bunker to the first shift. How could he have canned food
"If you can't get it, just say that you have completed the work. Then I will have to come back and lock you up, right?" Luo Fugui understood Sun Cui's expression.
"Two boxes." Sun Cui gestured at the same time.
"OK!"
Then both of them laughed.
