When Xia Zhongcheng saw that the Shangguan siblings' clothes were stained with blood, he turned around and ordered the soldiers, "Go and get two clean shirts!"
"Yes!"
The soldier turned around and went out. After a while, he came back with shirts and trousers and placed them beside the bed.
Xia Zhongcheng's voice was steady and powerful. "Have a good rest! Don't worry, once you're in China, you'll be safe! What happened in the past is in the past! No one will harm you again! "
He didn't say anything else.
He and Yun Laohu left the barracks together.
Yun Jingting was an "old" soldier and was meticulous in his actions. He whispered to the soldiers beside him, "Be careful! Don't let them come and go as they please! "
Although the other party claimed to be an overseas Chinese, reported their names and family background, and claimed that their "father" was injured, they still had to guard against enemy spies and undercover activities before verifying their identities.
The two of them stood in the dark and were not in a hurry to go back to their room. Xia Zhongcheng lit a cigarette and took a few deep puffs. He seemed to be talking to himself as he sighed. "Once you open fire on the battlefield, your life is no longer your own. The chances of survival and death are 50/50. It's good to be able to come back alive and smoke a cigarette …"
He casually handed the cigarette box to Yun Laohu. "Have one. Your wife isn't here."
Yun Jingting took out a cigarette, put it under his nose and sniffed hard. "Hmm! It smells so good! "
He put the cigarette behind his ear. "I'll keep it! I'll take a whiff! It'll satisfy my craving! "
Xia Zhongcheng looked at him from the corner of his eye. "Tsk! Tracheitis! Even if Mi Xaing 'er isn't here, she'll still have you under control. "
Yun Jingting looked serious. "Why isn't my wife here?"
He patted his chest. "She's been here all this time! She's so close to me. "
He unexpectedly showed off his public display of affection.
Xia Zhongcheng pursed his lips. "Show off!"
Yun Laohu looked into the forest, as if she could see through the treetops and see her home thousands of miles away. Her voice was low and gentle, completely different from the cold and hard voice she had in the barracks just now. "Who doesn't show off when they have a good day? A wife, children, and a warm bed. Any man would have this dream, right? "
Xia Zhongcheng sighed inwardly …
Wife, children, a warm bed?
He could not help but think of Yun Jingqi's smiling face. He pursed his lips and said, "Tiger, I wonder how your sister is doing now."
Yun Jingting did not respond.
The two of them stood under the moonlight and silently looked up at the starry sky.
At night …
Yun Laohu is lying on the bed, writing a letter to his wife.
Xiang'er
I miss you again!
Every time I finish a mission and calm down, I can't help but think of you and Little Fengshou.
I'm doing pretty well here. It's just that the weather is a little hot, and I feel a little frustrated and uncomfortable. Especially at night, I can't sleep!
So I miss home even more. I miss the Northeast, I miss the heavy snow, I miss the extreme cold, and I also miss the warm bed in the winter night, you in the bed, and my son's laughter …
How are you at home?
Are you doing well in school?
Are you healthy?
Do you miss me occasionally?
How are your parents?
How are my parents?
How are the children?
1,000 questions are constantly lingering in my mind. There are thousands of words to say … Take care of yourself. When I come back, I will definitely make up for everything that I lack from you!
There are also a few words that I have to say. Xiang'er, meeting you in this life, marrying you, and having you by my side for the rest of my life … It's great!
Love you!
Love you!
Love you!
He did not sign the letter, but drew a heart at the bottom.
He pressed his face against the letter and involuntarily rubbed it twice, as if he could feel the warmth of his wife.
After a long time, he carefully folded the letter, placed it beside his pillow, and fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning.
Gu Dalong came back. As soon as he entered the house, he gulped down half a vat of water before wiping the corners of his mouth. "Reporting to Regiment Commander, Political Commissar, the documents to verify the identity of the overseas Chinese are back!"
"So fast?"
Gu Dalong nodded vigorously. "Fast? There's a reason for that! "
He took out a file from his bag and handed it to Yun Jingting. "Regiment Commander, take a look for yourself!"
He did not stop talking and continued, "I heard from the comrade who took in the refugees that the Shangguan family is very famous in Xi Gong. They are already under our control, so there's no need to investigate in detail."
Xia Zhongcheng looked up curiously. "Ah? What's going on? "
"I heard that their family is the key target of our protection!"
Gu Dalong raised his chin proudly. "We've saved them this time, so we've done a meritorious deed! The comrade from the military said to praise us verbally first! As for the rest … we'll implement it after we report it to the higher-ups! "
Meritorious?
Yun Laohu glared at him. "Don't be so smug! What did you say when you reported the situation to the military? "
Gu Dalong smiled honestly. "What else could I have said? Of course, I followed your and the political commissar's instructions … We rescued the Shangguan siblings in our own country. There were some minor conflicts with the enemy, but there were no casualties! That's all! The military is very appreciative of our actions. "
Xia Zhongcheng knocked on the table with his hand. "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. I'll write a detailed written report later! Dalong, continue to talk about the Shangguan family. "
"Okay!"
Gu Dalong straightened his back and swallowed hard. "The Shangguan family's ancestors are from Hunan. They went to Vietnam three generations ago and have been doing business there. Their business is quite big, and they are one of the richest families in Xi Gong! They are authentic Chinese. Ever since the civil strife in Vietnam, they have been secretly protecting our intelligence personnel. They can be considered as a safe transit point for us in Xi Gong! "
Xia Zhongcheng pursed his lips without anyone noticing. "Oh, there's such a history."
"That's right! Overall, their family is still reliable! Probably because of this, when the situation between the two countries became tense, their family was the first to suffer. Not only were their assets completely seized, but only these three escaped from their family of more than ten people! The rest are … "
Gu Dalong sighed. "It's quite tragic just thinking about it! With only these three, Dad still … Sigh! Only the siblings are left in the family! His sister is called Shangguan Ying. She used to be a talented girl in Xi Gong. She was originally studying in America and could have avoided this disaster. But when she heard that the situation at home was tense, she flew back. Before she could bring her family out, she was also involved! "
I see.
She's also a woman who values relationships.
Xia Zhongcheng lowered his head slightly. "Looking at the situation yesterday, their family is very close. When I rescued the girl, I saw it clearly. Although her father was shot, he was still holding her tightly in his arms. He even wanted to use his own body to protect his daughter! When I carried her on my back, I forced my father's hand away! "
Gu Dalong also nodded. "Then they must be very close. Otherwise, why would Shangguan Ying come back to get involved in this mess when she's already overseas? He had almost lost his life as well? Sigh! When I see their house, I'm reminded of my parents! "
He was quite emotional.
While Gu Dalong and Xia Zhongcheng were talking, Yun Jingting had already roughly looked through the information in her hands. The situation was basically the same as what Gu Dalong had said.
Yun Laohu coughed lightly. "Dalong, what are the higher-ups' opinions? Should we send them back to the military zone now? "
Gu Dalong stood at attention. "Yes! The higher-ups have instructed us to immediately send people to send Shangguan Ying to the military zone hospital to ensure that her injuries are properly treated! The military zone will also send specialized comrades to take care of the siblings. "
Yun Laohu turned to Xia Zhongcheng. "Political Commissar, I still have to deal with the aftermath here! I'll leave the task of sending the siblings to the military zone to you! You can also make a detailed written report to the higher-ups about our exchange of gunfire this time to ensure that there are no mistakes! "
After all, there was an exchange of gunfire?
It could be a big or small matter!
Xia Zhongcheng considered for a moment. "Alright! I'll go there personally then! "
He didn't say anything else.
He got up and tidied up his desk. "Gu Dalong! Prepare the car! "
Gu Dalong responded and turned to leave.
Xia Zhongcheng looked at Yun Laohu. "Is there anything else?"
"No! Be careful on the road! I'll accompany you to get the siblings into the car? "
Since the identity of the overseas Chinese had been confirmed and there were instructions from the higher-ups, there was no need to hesitate. The two of them chatted as they arrived at Shangguan Ying's residence and took the siblings out of the barracks.
Shangguan Ying had already changed her clothes. She was wearing a white military shirt and a pair of loose yellow military trousers, which made her figure look even more delicate. Her thick black hair hung down to her waist and her eyes seemed to be filled with tears. It was a pitiful sight.
Xia Zhongcheng briefly explained the situation. "… I'll send you to the military zone now! Get in the car! "
Shangguan Ying was stunned. She looked at the forest and her big, watery eyes deepened. "Comrade Xia, can I go and bid farewell to my father?"
Then she added, "Please don't worry, I won't cause trouble for the army! I'll just be at the border and bid farewell from afar! "
Without waiting for Xia Zhongcheng's reply, she pulled her brother's hand and walked to the edge of the forest. With a "plop" sound, the two of them knelt down. Without saying a word, they kowtowed three times … Although there was no sound of crying, one could faintly see that her shoulders were constantly trembling.
Xia Zhongcheng couldn't bear to look at them. He turned around and walked to the side of the car … leaving the siblings a moment of peace.
They got into the car and the journey was bumpy. By the time they arrived at the military hospital, it was already evening. The sunset glow filled the sky and painted the horizon with a pleasing brilliance …
Xia Zhongcheng got out of the car first. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he immediately straightened his back, habitually adjusted his collar, tugged at his lapels, and adjusted his military cap. The setting sun reflected on his resolute facial features, as if covering him with a layer of gorgeous light and shadow, making him look even more imposing.
His eyes casually swept around the place ….
Suddenly, a figure in the distance attracted his attention …
Xia Zhongcheng couldn't help but take two steps toward the figure. He muttered softly, "Jing Qi?"
