Zheng Yuan suddenly visited Old Jiulian for two reasons. One wanted to visit everyone, and the other was to inform Qin Hanyong that he was about to transfer back to the seventy zero group he was thinking of. Even though he could not go back to Yehuolian for the time being, it was still considered to be the case. Make an exception and go to the military academy to apply for a crash course and serve as the commander of the second battalion.
On the other side, Gu Yiye was recording a roster of soldiers, only to learn that He Bing in the hospital was injured and eventually died. Thinking that the entire company had survived a total of 27 people, even half of them were in the hospital, Gu Yiye's mentality collapsed again. Sorghum walked in to comfort Gu Yiye, but at the end of the conversation, he was also sad. The two sat on the ground and remembered the past, crying too hard for themselves.
Qin Hanyong considered that the impact on the soldiers was too great this time, and was unable to get out of the shadow of the pain, so he asked Zheng Yuan for instructions to join Jiulian and Sanlian, so that it would not be too deserted. Zheng Yuan understood Qin Hanyong's thoughts, and planned to invite the soldiers to have a light meal tonight and let Qin Han prepare some strong alcohol.
After arriving in Class 9, Zheng Yuan saw Niu Mancang sitting at the table with his head hanging down. Except for him, Gao Liang and Gu Yiye, the other beds were already empty. Zheng Yuan calmed down Niu Mancang's emotions. When he heard the situation of the platoon leader Zhang Fei, he looked at the empty bed in front of him, feeling very uncomfortable.
When eating at night, a dozen people sat neatly on both sides of the table, and the teacher Zheng Yuan was directly above them. In this extremely depressing atmosphere, Zheng Yuan took the lead to toast and drank it, as did the others. Only Gu Yiye poured the wine on the ground to mourn the sacrificed comrades.
It is said that men have tears and don't flick them lightly, but men's tears often flow in their hearts, so Zheng Yuan made an exception to let everyone cry happily and open their mouths to eat and drink. Qin Hanyong quietly called sorghum away, and told him to look at the leader. At this time, Gu Yiye came out to ask Qin Hanyong for leave, really not in the mood to drink any more, and handed him the soldier roster by the way.
While the two were talking, Zheng Yuan came to Qin Hanyong and Gu Yiye, urging them to go back to dinner first, and then go to work after half an hour. Zheng Yuan went back to the canteen to call Gu Yiye, and asked Gao Liang to bring a broken flag with the five characters "Life and Death Together" written on it, so striking, it also represented the aspirations of the Jiulian soldiers.
Under Gao Liang’s introduction, everyone learned that these five words were written by Gu Yiye himself. Zheng Yuan affirmed and praised him on the spot, praising him for facing multiple enemies, even if the battle is fierce, he can still lead all his comrades. Breaking out of layers of encirclement, they also praised every soldier one by one, they charged at the enemy desperately, existed for war, and took peace as the ultimate goal.
Due to the outstanding achievements of the Jiu Company in this battle, the 720th Regiment was given the title of “Hero Company”. Zheng Yuan suggested to change the title of “Life and Death”. Qin Hanyong also stated that if Jiu Company can be judged as a meritor Consider going back to the Seventy Zero Group, but continue to stay.
As soon as everyone changed their low mood, they became excited at this moment. Zhao Hongying ran in from the door in a hurry, kept his previous promise, and embraced Qin Hanyong in public. Facing the sudden embrace, Qin Hanyong was both surprised and delighted, the feelings between the two could be seen clearly in everyone's eyes, and they applauded to create the atmosphere.
The dinner party tonight was very successful. All the officers and soldiers of the Jiu Company seemed to come alive. Zheng Yuan was also full of joy when he left, which made Chen Dashan and Song Jianshe also relieved. Qin Hanyong attributed the credit to Gao Liang. Without his suggestion, the situation tonight would not have happened. By the way, he suggested to Chen Dashan that the delegation should deal with the notice of Zhang Fei’s death as soon as possible. After all, Axiu lived in the guest house in the town for more than ten days. , Hasn't waited for a result.
Qin Hanyong and Gu Yiye came to the guest house and found that sorghum had been visiting A Xiu carrying a large package of small rolls. Similarly, A Xiu also prepared many specialty products of mountain products for the soldiers, as well as ginger candy tablets to treat Gu Yiye's cough. In fact, Axiu has already noticed something wrong. After so many days, how can the few people who are Zhang Fei's good comrades-in-arms and good chiefs deliberately avoid mentioning it unless something goes wrong.
Axiu knows that war is bound to be dangerous, but she still doesn't want to think about the worst result, even if it is disabled and unable to move, at least she is still alive. It's a pity that good luck makes people, Axiu finally waited for Zhang Fei to take care of it. Before they got their marriage report, they were completely separated from each other.
There are only three people left in the dormitory of Class Nine. Gu Yinye sits on Zhang Fei’s bed, recalling the bits and pieces of the past, while reminiscing and crying, Gao Liang and Niu Mancang are moved and cry, and Qin Han stands silently outside the door. The same is true for Yong. From then on, Niu Mancang stayed in the barracks during the day without speaking, and went to stand guard at night, without rest for three nights.
The instructor was worried that Niu Mancang's body would not be able to bear it, so he asked Qin Hanyong to help persuade him, but it was a pity that no one had any results. Later, the instructor took the initiative to chat with Niu Mancang about Shu Jiagui. Two boys who grew up in the same village joined the army together. They felt like brothers and sisters and were comrades-in-arms, but in the end Shu Jiagui stayed on the list of martyrs forever. The instructor took out the letter written by Shu Jiagui to Niu Mancang. This was the last word he left to his good brother. Although only a short line, it was enough to make Niu Mancang tears in his eyes.
