After the fierce battle, the soldiers returned to the surface, and all of them immediately breathed in the fresh air of the mountains. They were really suffocated underground. Regardless of the built-in filter in the welding helmet or the filter tank of the gas mask, as long as they had to go Toxic and unable to remove the odor. Think about it, the combination of a damp tunnel that has been stuffy for decades and the smell of rat droppings, blood, and corpses is so exciting.
But Shen Rusong was a little embarrassed. He found he couldn't take off his helmet.
"I'm a fool, I'm a fool, I'm a fool, you guys are pulling out my helmet or my head!" Shen Rusong shouted.
The people surrounding him laughed together, and even gloated about knocking on Shen Rusong's welding helmet, which made a "bang bang bang" sound. The depressed Shen Rusong sat on the stone and subconsciously touched out the As a result, I couldn't put the cigarette in my mouth, which made people laugh even more.
Shen Rusong was very speechless. Only then did he realize that in the fight with the helmeted rat, the beast had bitten his helmet, and now he couldn't take it off.
"How about we saw it off?" Li Hao held the flue in his mouth, and while the squad leader was trapped, all the grandchildren lit up.
Xie Guorong leaned over and lit the cigarette, took a good drag, but hesitated: "Ah, this... is not good, if the saw is crooked, wouldn't the squad leader's head also snap..."
"Cracked?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Deng Feng slapped him on the back of the head and cursed: "Can you say something auspicious?"
Deng Feng squatted next to Shen Rusong and carefully studied where the helmet was stuck. However, after studying for a long time, he tried to pull it out and hit it with the hammer head, but he couldn't take it off.
"It looks like it's really been sawed." Deng Feng rolled up his sleeves and shouted to the bastard who was watching the fun: "Hey! Who is that! Go get the chainsaw!"
As soon as they heard that Squad Leader 2 was about to have his head chopped off, the soldiers all came over with a bang. Those who had something to do could not stop taking a peek. The platoon leader was busy telegraphing to the base at the moment, so he was not involved in this matter. Maybe with the character of Xu Bowen, how mature can a newly graduated military academy student be? He was probably having fun while training people.
Chen Xiaoxiang, who had been squatting on the cliff the whole time, was brushing her horse. She did not participate in the tunnel battle. It was not because she was unwilling, but because she could control all the horses in the cavalry squad by herself. She went down. , two cavalry would have to be replaced.
Seeing the sparks flying from Shen Rusong's head, the Hunan girl couldn't help laughing. She stepped on the stirrup and got on the horse. She raised the telescope and looked leisurely from a distance. She thought to herself that this guy is also unlucky. Flattened the helmet.
Lying on the horse, Chen Xiaoxiang habitually took out the flat wine bottle behind his coat and took a sip. He cried out happily, thinking that you guys were conducting a raid down below, and I was shooting birds above. It's really unfair.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoxiang jumped off the horse, patted the horse's neck and said "Stop!" and walked towards Shen Rusong's place.
"Is it okay? Why does it take so long?" Shen Rusong shouted.
"Come on, come on." Deng Feng said perfunctorily.
The thickest part of the welding helmet is several centimeters, and it is made of composite materials. It is padded with a steel layer, and you have to worry about the head underneath. How dare you really chop it down like sawing wood? Deng Feng felt that his hands were tired from holding it, and he was drinking water at the moment. Rest, after all, he had been fighting for an entire afternoon and was tired.
It was really painful for Shen Rusong to wait, so he told Deng Feng to stop sawing. It's not that I can't trust your craftsmanship, but I have a buddy named Gao Keming. He is a technical soldier and is more skilled with saws. Go and call him. Saw my head off.
Deng Feng left in response and met Chen Xiaoxiang who was walking over.
Chen Xiaoxiang folded her hands and bent down, staring at Shen Rusong's helmet. She remained silent. The others had enough of the excitement and went back to prepare for the camp. This communication base station was hollowed out by helmeted rats. If you set up camp rashly, it might sink. So now everyone is transporting things to the cliff and camp there at night.
Chen Xiaoxiang laughed softly "hehe" a few times and saw Shen Rusong holding his chin in a daze with his hand. She observed for a long time and determined that Shen Rusong would not wake up for a while, so she unbuttoned her cuffs and took advantage of others' absence. Paying attention, he picked up the chain saw, pulled the rope, and moved it towards Shen Rusong's head.
Sparks flew for a moment, and Shen Rusong thought that sawing had started again. Since he couldn't see it, he naturally didn't react. However, Deng Feng, who had led Gao Keming over, was stunned when they saw this scene, and then they immediately panicked. What is the ancestor going to do?
Saw my brother's head off? Gao Keming thought.
Saw off my monitor's head? Deng Feng thought.
"My aunt, what are you going to do?"
For fear of startling her, the two of them did not dare to start and hurriedly circled around Chen Xiaoxiang, urging her to stop immediately. However, she held the chain saw and without shaking the gestures that she was used to holding the reins, sawed the helmet in half, just right. Go to the last layer of flannel.
"Don't tell him what I did." Chen Xiaoxiang put down the chainsaw, raised his slender fingers to make a silent gesture, then clapped his hands and danced away with a few skips.
"Is it okay?" Shen Rusong, who didn't know anything, asked.
What can Gao Keming and Deng Feng say? They looked at each other, it was a good thing that it was sawed open, and not a single hair on his head was lost, so he replied: "Okay, okay, let's peel it off."
Taking off his helmet, Shen Rusong howled excitedly, "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many times" in the mountain wind, then hugged Gao Keming and lifted him up, shouting: "He#%&!" I finally came out! I’m so touched!”
"I'm so touched! I love you so much, Datou!"
Shen Rusong hugged Deng Feng again and shouted: "Old Deng, I love you too!"
Gao Keming and Deng Feng both showed embarrassing smiles. In the distance, Chen Xiaoxiang, hiding behind the horse, covered his mouth and laughed until he could not straighten his waist. Pointing his trembling fingers at Shen Rusong, he almost laughed to the ground.
Putting aside such a small episode, the crackdown operation was a success without any danger.
Xu Bowen, who presided over the battle, reported the results to the company commander. Captain Xia was very happy to report to his superiors on the field phone, saying that in the five-hour battle, the 2nd company killed more than 150 people at the cost of four minor injuries. Ten adult helmeted rats destroyed seven large and small nests with fat bundles growing out, ensuring the safety of the reserve and so on.
The superiors are naturally satisfied with this matter. It is not a big deal to have a mutant beast nest. After all, there are so many small beast nests these days that the hunters are too lazy to deliberately destroy them. However, a beast nest with fat bundles growing out means that this mutant beast group is about to be born. The deformed species will no longer be treated simply like this, but professionals, namely hunters, will be sent.
After praising him, his superior reminded Xia Xiaoyuan before hanging up the phone, saying that there were still a bunch of maintenance goals ahead, and he should not encounter the beast's nest "again".
Xia Xiaoyuan understood the meaning of his superiors. There was a reserve bank accidentally discovered under the 1148.7 communication base station. Someone from above would definitely come to check it. The credit would not go away. However, if there was no such reserve bank, according to the usual practice, the nest would be blown up, and there would be a death without evidence. , then was it finally suppressed or not?
There are too many ways here, but that doesn't stop the company commander from being in a good mood. He fought a refreshing battle and recorded a note in his merit book. Anyone else would be happy.
After setting up camp at night, the company commander announced that everyone performed extremely well in today's battle, which showed the results of training. For this reason, after the return trip, he will report for third-class collective merit, and at the same time, he will receive double supplies today!
The recruits don't quite understand what third-class collective meritorious service means. Anyway, meritorious service is a good thing, and you can have two meals! Although the individual soldier rations don't taste very good, everyone likes to eat the gummy candies that come with the rations. You can also smoke cigarettes without fear of being kicked by the squad leader.
Everyone sat around the bonfire, baking cans and sharing cigarette butts and candies. The cool breeze blowing from the forest melted into everyone's laughter.
"Let me tell you, at that time, the squad leader was in a panic. He just said 'flour'! With a bang, he flew out and lay on the ground. I almost thought he died." Xie Guorong recalled bragging about himself in the flour warehouse How brave he was to stand in front of the squad leader, and how he rescued him later.
Shen Rusong grabbed a handful of stones and threw them over, cursing: "You guys have the nerve to say that? You are the one who shoots the most enthusiastically! I want you to be more careful! If the scattered bullets behind you ignite, it's all your grandson's fault!"
"Squad leader, you shoot the hardest!"
"That's right! He touched my bullet in the middle of the beating. I said at that time who touched my butt!"
Everyone in the class was laughing from ear to ear, complaining about Shen Rusong's "ill-ethical" behavior in the tunnel, such as being pushed away in front of the door, liking to take other people's magazines, hitting mice but having to ride on him, etc. It's not a matter of breaking things and making them as heavy as loose. It's not a matter of not refuting.
"You guys pull me down, I'm going to bed." Shen Rusong stood up to leave.
"Monitor, don't leave, we can't afford to play anymore."
The crowd burst into laughter again, reflecting the bonfire. Everyone's faces were bright red. They had endless things to say to each other. After going to the battlefield for the first time, they were stained with blood for the first time, and it was animal blood, and they could spit stars. Put out the firewood.
Of course Shen Rusong didn't return to the tent. The moon was pretty good today, and his excitement didn't go away. Just like the aftertaste after that, he sat on the bedside and thought about it again and again.
Leaning against a tree next to the camp, Shen Rusong lit a cigarette and let it burn. He stared blankly at the bright moon as big as a jade plate, and saw the ash falling on his hand without realizing it.
There was an indescribable feeling in my heart. Is this the moon? Yes, it’s the moon. I’ve just seen the coming moon. I’ve heard about the sun and the moon since I was a child, but I didn’t really see it until I was 20 years old. I didn’t expect it to be such a thing. One can’t see it with his eyes, and the other can see it with his eyes wide open. Unclear.
Shen Rusong took out a small notebook from the inner pocket of his coat. He kept the big one at the base. When he goes out for training, he takes a big diary with him. There are many things to do. If you have any thoughts, just jot down them in the small one.
[April 3rd, the rain turns sunny]
[Today was the first battle in my life. I was clearing out the helmet rats. It was a bit dangerous. I had two accidents. Now I'm scared. But there were no problems, except that the helmet got stuck in the end, and Lao Deng had to find a big saw for a long time. I just opened it, it’s quite embarrassing]
[I was just bragging to everyone, these guys are all here for me, I'm going to train them tomorrow, monitor authority! as well as……】
Shen Rusong paused his pencil, looked up at the moon, and naturally thought of his mother and sister who were far away in Longshan. They might never come to the surface of the earth in their lifetimes, and they might not be able to see the scene in front of him in their lifetimes.
Just a bright moon.
Shen Rusong smiled slightly, and waited until he finished cleaning up the surface before bringing his mother and Xiaomei here. By then, he should be demobilized. If he came here as a tourist, if he overstayed his term of service, he might bring Xiaomei's child with him. Come.
As for himself? He hasn't thought about it yet. Let's talk about it in 27 or 8, if everything is healthy.
Shen Rusong bit the eraser behind the tip of his pencil. He stopped thinking and wrote the last line.
[Also, the moon is beautiful today. 】
