The troops set off from Yichang to Hunan, and they were mighty and endless.
The marching conditions were difficult, and the soldiers carried their bags across the mountains. Lu Chan didn't know what happened to the others. Anyway, after just two days of walking, her feet developed blisters. Every step she took was painful, and she insisted on perseverance.
The comrades in the health team were very concerned after learning about her situation. While sharing their experience, they also took advantage of the rest time to find some symptomatic herbs on the mountain for her to grind and apply on the wound.
This kind of situation is too common for soldiers. In Xiao Xia's words, who hasn't worn out a few pairs of shoes, and who doesn't have a few layers of calluses on the soles of their feet.
Seriously, the entire sole of the foot can shed the skin, which means that Lu Chan is young and has a delicate face, so everyone is willing to take more care of her.
In the evening, the troops stopped to spend the night by the lake. Lu Chan found a secluded place and prepared to apply the medicine. Instead of the herbs given by his comrades in arms, he used the "muscle-creating ointment" that was exchanged from the system and claimed to be able to heal all trauma.
She sat on a rock and took off her shoes and socks. She had round toes on her white insteps and healthy peach pink nails. If the blisters on the soles of her feet were ignored, she would be able to participate in a beauty pageant with her bare feet.
Lu Chan put her feet into the lake water, ready to wash and apply medicine.
It is already May, the lake water is not so cold, it is quite comfortable to soak in the water.
Maybe it was because she was in such a good mood that she ignored the surrounding environment and didn't even notice anyone appeared. When she heard the noise and turned her head, she met Mu Wanfeng's surprised gaze that she had no time to retract.
I saw that his face turned red quickly, his calm look disappeared, and he couldn't speak anymore.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to, I really didn't know you were here..."
Because I was too ashamed, I couldn't say the word "washing feet" on my lips.
In comparison, Lu Chan was much calmer. Washing her feet was not a bath. In later generations, in summer, the streets would be filled with girls wearing sandals, with bare shoulders and thighs everywhere.
But at least she didn't forget her personality, she turned her body embarrassingly, lowered her face and said, "It's okay, I shouldn't be here."
The white toes curled up in the water because of shyness. Seeing that scene by accident, Mu Wanfeng felt a tightness in his throat. He quickly looked away and coughed lightly, "I'm here for inspection. The army is nearby, but you, a lesbian, should not come out alone when it gets dark, and hurry back to the camp."
Lu Chan hummed, the voice was soft and thin, scratching like a feather.
Mu Wanfeng left, his back was a little hasty, Lu Chan shook her feet triumphantly, and even the lake jumped out of the water like she was in a good mood.
After using the "Growing Muscle Ointment", the blisters disappeared that night. Fortunately, the wound was on the sole of the foot, and it healed so quickly that no one knew about it, but in order not to arouse suspicion, she continued to pretend for two days. Finally, everyone thought it was Thanks to the herbs.
It had been nine days since Lu Chan's letter was sent in the hometown, and her parents were both surprised and happy. The surprise was that she really joined the army, and the joy was that she was still alive without any accidents.
Because she didn't want to reveal her identity in front of Mu Wanfeng so quickly, she didn't mention the specific information of the army in the letter, nor did she say that she had met Mu Wanfeng, she only said that she was not filial, and asked her parents not to worry about her.
"After I came out, I realized how vast the world is. My life should not be muddled. I should pursue something so that this life is not in vain. I am just ashamed of letting down my parents' kindness in giving birth."
She also said, "I am looking forward to the victory of the revolution, and hope that on that day, the door of my home will still be open for me."
The letter was read by Lu Yuanhai, Wang Jinhao and Lu Huaigen were both illiterate, after listening to it, Wang Jinhao sucked his nose and wiped away his tears. He thought that all the tears in this life had already been shed.
"This girl was raised for nothing. For a man, she even gave up her parents. What I regret the most is that I was obsessed with money back then, so I accepted the marriage of the Mu family."
I thought that the conditions of the Mu family were good, and that their daughter would not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of their lives after marrying, but this turned out to be the result.
In June, the Red Fourth Front Army, which had been transferred to Hunan, experienced a small-scale battle with few casualties, but the health team faced the same dilemma, that is, there were not many medicines left.
Someone suggested to follow Mu Wanfeng's method last time and go to the enemy camp again, but was rejected by the chief.
"No brains, the last success was just a fluke, do you really think that the enemy is a vegetarian?"
After scolding, the chief took a sip of the water in the porcelain jar, and said in a deep voice, "It's not that the matter can't be solved. I have already received news that a patriot secretly donated a ship of medical supplies to our army. It will arrive at Laodukou two days later. How did you unknowingly bring the cargo back."
Several transportation fortresses in the city are controlled by the enemy. Once the enemy finds out, the hard-earned supplies are likely to be lost. The chief asked everyone to express their opinions. Method.
Someone suggested, "Why don't we find a way to travel by water?"
"It won't work. Firstly, the water level is different, and big ships cannot enter here. Secondly, once the materials are off the ship, it is not possible for one or two small ships to handle such a large amount of goods."
Even if it is made now, it is too late.
"Otherwise, from the periphery, let's go over the mountain?"
This proposal is still unworkable, the port is in the urban area, no matter how much you climb over the mountains, you have to pass that hurdle.
This doesn't work, that doesn't work, a group of straight soldiers really can't think of a feasible solution other than scratching their heads and ears, but the matter is in front of them, and there is not much time to waste.
"Everyone, don't have any worries. No matter what idea you have, just mention it. We don't care about age or qualifications, and we only care about whether it is feasible or not."
As soon as the chief finished speaking, Mu Wanfeng, who was sitting on the outermost side, spoke.
"Chief, what I'm thinking is, since it won't work in the dark, we might as well try to make it clear."
Seeing that he was the one who suggested it, the chief suddenly became interested, "Oh, tell me how to make a clear move."
Under the gaze of everyone, Mu Wanfeng spoke calmly, "There are quite a few soldiers from Hunan in the battalion. If they pretend to be moving or picking up relatives, can they cover it up? Even if someone interrogates them, as long as they are well prepared, we will take them with us after we leave the city." Supplies go by the sidewalk.”
The reason why he came up with this idea was that Mu Wanfeng had a cousin who married a wife from another province. At that time, he accompanied his cousin to pick up the bride outside the city, so he was very impressed.
The chief's first reaction was that this method was feasible, but the details still needed some deliberation.
It was easy for soldiers from Hunan to find dozens of people, but since it was a marriage reception, there must be a bride and groom, right? And dowry and so on.
The chief thoughtfully looked at Mu Wanfeng who made the proposal, and suddenly felt like he was running out of iron shoes, young and handsome, isn't he the best groom candidate
The chief coughed lightly, and said with a generous smile, "Xiao Mu, since you brought up this idea, why don't I leave it to you?"
Other military officers attending the meeting echoed.
"Yes, Xiao Mu is young, this kind of good thing is suitable for young people."
"Since Xiao Mu came up with the idea, it's the most reassuring to leave it to him."
It all sounded reasonable, and Mu Wanfeng couldn't refuse. Now that there is a groom candidate, he still needs to arrange a bride candidate.
"What's so difficult about it? We don't have many female soldiers in the 31st Army."
The logistics, cooking team, correspondents, art troupe, and health team all add up to just over three hundred numbers. After subtracting the inappropriate age and mismatched looks, the rest can be counted with two hands.
Lu Chan's face appeared in Mu Wanfeng's mind almost immediately. This feeling was too unfamiliar, and he was even a little at a loss.
He was born in a big family. As the eldest son in the family, he was given high hopes by his elders since he was a child. He was enlightened at the age of three and went to a private school at the age of five. His husband often praised him for being sensitive and studious. He will definitely be a dragon and phoenix in the future.
He lived up to the expectations of his elders, and was admitted to the best local university at the age of sixteen. Since then, he has been exposed to many more scientific and advanced ideas, and his mind and soul have been sublimated like never before.
In college, he participated in editorials with his classmates, studied Marxist philosophy together, and criticized the feudal system, which was so harmful.
He yearns for a world of freedom and democracy, and firmly believes that one day, after the fog dissipates, all people in the country will live a dignified life. This kind of thinking completely erupted after being exposed to red thoughts, and he found a place where thoughts belong.
His heart was so free, but one day he suddenly received a letter from his mother, telling him that he had a fiancée, a girl who was only thirteen years old.
My mother said that she is quiet and well-behaved, good at cooking and a skilled worker, she is a rare good girl.
There is a family of girls who are begging, because they are afraid that other people will look at them, so their parents help him make an appointment first, and wait for him to go home and get married after he has achieved academic success.
He immediately went to write to express his dissatisfaction, and sincerely begged his parents to annul the marriage contract.
In his conception, the future wife must have the same aspirations and ideals as him, instead of a country girl who can't even read a word.
For this marriage contract without his own consent, he had disputes with his parents several times but failed. This year, the other party turned 18 and his family began to urge the marriage. Just as the Red Army was recruiting soldiers, he resolutely left home and became a Red Army soldier.
Although he has no feelings for the "fiancée" whom he has never met and asked his parents to annul the marriage contract, he is not sure whether he is "free" now, and if not, whether there is any immorality in his special affection for Lu Chan.
When Mu Wanfeng's thoughts were wandering, someone made a suggestion for the "bride" candidate.
"I think it's better to choose a suitable one from the health team. This can also help take care of the materials, which ones can't get wet, and which ones should be handled with care. Only those who understand can understand."
The chief nodded in approval of the proposal.
"Then let's find it from the health team. As for the candidate, you can decide for yourself, Xiao Mu."
The other leaders also laughed and teased, "Xiao Mu, this is a good opportunity, don't you still have a date?"
Needless to say, it is too clear, anyway, everyone understands it.
Time was tight, and Mu Wanfeng started preparations after the meeting. First, he gathered all the soldiers from Hunan to avoid being seen by the enemy during the interrogation. The final number was more than 500, and he selected 80 elites from them.
After that, he asked the logistics to prepare a dowry to conceal the public's eyes, and hurriedly produced a batch of mules and red sticks.
After arranging everything, Mu Wanfeng went to the health team, and met Zhang Lianchang's meaningful gaze as soon as he arrived.
He pretended to be calm and said, "Company Commander Zhang, you should know the content of today's meeting. I came here to choose a female comrade to cooperate with the work of covering the transportation of medicines."
Not only did Company Commander Zhang know, but he also knew how everyone made fun of Mu Wanfeng at the meeting, but to be honest, if his soldiers found a partner like Mu Wanfeng, Company Commander Zhang would support it with both hands.
Last time Mu Wanfeng took a risk to solve the problem of drug shortage, and he was the one who was appointed this time, which shows that he has a deep relationship with the medical team.
"Platoon Leader Mu, I have already understood the matter. Our health team only has these soldiers. You can choose whoever suits you."
The proportion of female soldiers in the health team is quite high, and most of them are unmarried, but there are not many who match Mu Wanfeng in terms of age and appearance.
Like Xiaoxia and Xiaoli, they are a few years older than Mu Wanfen, and they feel like sisters and brothers standing together, full of sense of disobedience.
Mu Wanfeng was naturally interested in Lu Chan, but because he had a "ghost" in his heart, he didn't dare to choose directly. In the end, it was Zhang Lianchang who helped him.
"How about Lu Chan? I remember that you are still from the same hometown, so you can communicate more smoothly?"
Mu Wanfeng had no objection to this, and the matter was settled so happily.
