Wang Ke visited the family home at three o'clock in the morning.
A platoon of left guards and a few soldiers were disheartened and were discussing how to wait for dawn to search.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
A long line of left guards opened the door in surprise. Outside was a snowman with white frost on his eyebrows. His entire lower body was covered in ice. His two trouser legs soaked in snow were so frozen that they couldn't even bend. And standing next to the sleigh at the door was a white donkey. Except for its nose, its whole body was covered with white frost, and its four legs looked like they were wearing boots.
"Report to the platoon leader, I'm back, I didn't delay anything!" Wang Ke saluted with difficulty, his hands and feet were a little numb.
At this time, eighteen hours had passed since the morning departure. Who knows, how many hardships and ups and downs Wang Ke has experienced in these eighteen hours.
A platoon leader, the left guard, hugged Wang Ke and was so excited that he could not speak! The lives of comrades are more important than the lives of children.
At this time, several soldiers rushed forward to help Wang Ke pat the snow off his body and help unload the things on the truck.
Entering the outhouse, a long line of left guards brought a chair and placed it next to the fire. Ask Wang Ke to take off his cotton pants. When I untied the bag on the outside of my trouser legs, I found that the bottoms were worn through. I couldn't take off my big-toed shoes and cotton trousers. They were all soaked. When I hit them with a stick, they made a "dong-dong" sound.
The water in three military kettles was completely frozen. "Give that donkey something to eat and drink!"
Wang Ke pointed to the door, and a soldier went out.
He opened the dough bag, took out the medicine, the two kilograms of sticky rice, the donkey hide gelatin, and finally two sheep heads, and then told the platoon leader and left guard one by one.
The platoon leader, the left guard, didn't listen to a word and just looked at Wang Ke blankly.
"Platoon leader, what's wrong with you? Take out the medicine quickly and stew the sheep's head quickly. Then you can make sticky rice. Make rice wine with distiller's yeast. Finally, don't forget to feed your sister-in-law donkey-hide gelatin and pumpkin kernels..." A row leader left. The guard was still stunned. He was at a loss and didn't know what words of gratitude to say.
In the end, Wang Ke stood up, picked up the sheep's head, washed it, mixed the medicine, put it in the stove and started to stew it.
At this time, the left guard of the platoon leader suddenly woke up and said, "Children are not important, hurry up and make some noodles for the reconnaissance squad leader." He took the medicine pot and started making noodles himself.
The medicine was very effective. At noon the next day, news came from the family hospital that the milk was coming down.
I remember that before leaving, he bit the ears of the platoon leader and left guard: "Platoon leader, the Chinese medicine doctor said that after three hours of drinking the milk soup, you should help suck hard to suck out the first mouthful of milk! Then it will be convenient for you to drink. ”
Wang Ke was carried back by several soldiers. His lower body was wrapped in a long fur coat, and his cotton trousers and big-toed shoes were left there to bake.
Back in the dormitory, next to the wall of fire, Wang Ke was still cold all over. It wasn't until the wake-up call was blown in the morning that he recovered and fell asleep. In the dream, it was still snow and a sled.
When he woke up, Luo Shaohuan brought the meal over. It turned out to be a sick meal made by the cooking team, a big bowl of noodles and eggs! There are some chopped green onions on top.
"Squad leader, the platoon leader asked the cooking team to prepare sick meals for you."
"That's nonsense! I'm not sick. What time is it now?"
"Two o'clock in the afternoon."
"Why did I sleep for so long?" Wang Ke looked at the platoon. Except for the famous soldier from the telephone squad who came in to get his belt, Luo Shaohuan was the only one left.
"Where are the people in the platoon?"
"You've all gone to shovel the snow. Squad leader, you can eat first after you get up. Your clothes and shoes have been brought back. I'll notify the company headquarters and the second platoon leader!"
"Come back, come back, Luo Shaohuan, why are you informing the company headquarters and the second platoon commander?"
"Yesterday and today, even the chiefs and the second platoon leader came several times and asked me to take care of you here. I told them to notify them when you wake up."
"What's going on? I'm just on a business trip. Why have so many company leaders been alarmed? I'm fine. You see, I'm even getting sick meals. What a bad impact this will have if word spreads!"
"Squad leader, you think this is a trivial matter!" Luo Shaohuan opened his mouth.
"It's not a small matter, but it can be a big deal? Is it more important than the company's military training?"
While the two were talking, the voice of Second Platoon Leader Hu Zhijun came from outside the window, "Is your reconnaissance squad leader awake?"
It seemed like a soldier on the phone shift was saying: "It seems he's awake and getting dressed and getting up. Platoon leader, I'm going to shovel the snow first."
Then the door of the outhouse was pushed open, and the voice of the second platoon leader Hu Zhijun came: "Reconnaissance squad leader, are you up?" Before the words could be heard, someone had already walked in.
"Platoon leader, I'm just waking up! I came back too late last night and I slept until now."
"Have you slept well? Continue if you haven't slept well."
"Sleep well."
"I just came back from the toilet and saw that the donkey of the company is still sleeping and has not recovered. How far did you walk yesterday?" said the second platoon leader Hu Zhijun sitting on the chair opposite.
"We have taken many detours, and there are always some in ninety kilometers."
"It's hard work, it's life-threatening! We are all relieved to see that you are okay." Second Platoon Commander Hu Zhijun said with a happy smile on his face.
"The milk has come down!"
"I heard that they are coming down. This platoon leader didn't sleep all night last night. He just went back and came here to bring you boiled eggs. Hey, those should be on the table."
Wang Ke turned around and saw that there were indeed seven or eight boiled eggs in the bowl on the table.
"I don't need to eat eggs either!"
"Eat, eat, he gave birth to a son, he should have given us wedding eggs."
Wang Ke shook his head. He had already put on his clothes, so he stood up and reached for a cooked egg and handed it to the second platoon leader Hu Zhijun, "Platoon leader, you eat one first, and I eat first. Look, the company also made me sick." Call for rice."
"That's right! You went out to ask for a doctor yesterday morning, but it lasted nearly 24 hours. The company was worried. The snow was so heavy, and they were afraid that something would happen to you in Xishan. Fortunately, you returned smoothly. I heard that you led I came back with a lot of medicine."
"Yes." Then Wang Ke told how he received the care of Dr. Dong Pianfang and how Dong Pianfang loved the People's Liberation Army. Not only did he only charge a dime, but he also gave a lot of extra medicine, glutinous rice, distiller's yeast and donkey-hide gelatin. Once again; he also said that he had personally seen Dong use folk remedies to treat diseases, and even raised many black donkeys. Finally, he said that the donkeys got lost when he came back, and how he finally came back along the Juma River. After reading it all over again, he just concealed the fact that he rescued Cuilan from the snow cave. In addition, he didn't say a word about Dong Pianfang coming to the army to thank him. This is nothing, maybe people said it under those conditions. Kind words, that's enough.
"This Dong folk remedy is not simple. Our company goes to Xishan every year. If we have a chance this year, we will go and have a look."
"OK!"
After talking about this, the second platoon leader Hu Zhijun continued: "You, Platoon Leader Yan, don't know when it will be healed. I don't know if my teacher's fragment can be successfully disposed of?"
"It shouldn't be a big problem. He can't become a family man. The key is his grandfather. I've seen that old man before, and I feel like there won't be any mistakes. It's just a matter of more money and less money in the end." Wang Ke said.
"Well, by the way, Scout Squadron, after I wrote your poem last time, my teacher spoke highly of you. I encourage you to practice calligraphy and develop your poetry."
"Platoon leader, don't worry, I'm practicing recently, and I even learned to write a song a while ago!"
"Oh, why don't I know, what kind of poem!" Second Platoon Leader Hu Zhijun should have become excited upon hearing this.
"After I finish eating, I will find it and ask the platoon leader to give me some advice. What I wrote is a five-joy song." Wang Ke said.
After eating, Wang Ke pushed his bowl, took out his notebook from the empty grenade box, opened a page and handed it to the second platoon leader Hu Zhijun, and saw that it read:
The country roads are full of shame, the feelings of the homeland are cold, and every year I feel uneasy, only afraid of heading east of the Yangtze River.
"This poem is good. Let me take it back and write it into a banner for him." Second platoon leader Hu Zhijun said. At this time, the door outside was pushed open again, and deputy company commander Lu Zeran opened the door and walked in. , with a higher voice.
"Is the reconnaissance squad leader awake? I said it's okay, but the instructor was so scared! Hey, the second platoon leader is here too!"
"Hello, deputy company commander!" Wang Ke puffed up his chest and saluted deputy company commander Lu Zeran.
Deputy company commander Lu Zeran returned the military salute and stepped forward to hold Wang Ke's hand. "How is it? It's not going well, is it? It's impossible to find the way in this snowy day." He didn't know that Wang Ke followed the refusal last night. Only then did Ma He find his way back to the barracks.
"Fortunately, I let the company commander worry about it."
"Oh, look what you said, you are our king of soldiers, it is normal to be worried and worried. You see, even the second platoon leader came to you several times, doesn't it mean that you are very popular!" Deputy Company Commander Lu Ze But at this time, his face was also full of smiles.
"Officers love soldiers, soldiers love officers, officers and soldiers are the same. This is the glorious tradition of our army!" The bearded company commander Tian and instructor Ding walked into the room with a smile. Instructor Ding continued the words of deputy company commander Lu Zeran. Finished sentence.
At this time, Wang Ke's heart was full of warmth. He was just a soldier. He just walked in the heavy snow, and all the cadres at home came to see him. He stood at attention again, raised his right hand to several cadres, and saluted solemnly.
This kind of friendship, this kind of atmosphere, this kind of care, people who don’t have that experience will never understand it.
For the sake of this comradeship, if it is necessary to go to the mountains of swords or the sea of fire, I believe everyone will do it.
It is the call of the military camp, the heat of the military camp, and the experience of the military camp that make an ordinary young man grow into an invincible warrior and a strong-blooded warrior.
"By the way, reconnaissance squad leader, it's been snowing these days. If you take a break today, can you continue to go out to the regiment ammunition depot and shooting range tomorrow to help the munitions section and the ordnance section organize their warehouses? After the new year, The training tasks of each company are about to be issued." Company Commander Bearded Tian said.
"Yes!" Wang Ke responded.
"Company commander, the reconnaissance squad leader is very tired, let the second platoon arrange it!" Deputy company commander Lu Zeran said.
"Do you think I want the reconnaissance squad to go? It was the two section chiefs who called the name! The reconnaissance squad leader is now a celebrity in the regiment. The logistics section chiefs, when they were assigned to work, called Wang Ke by name. Because the warehouse is a big place, inside There are so many good things! I’m not worried. They all think our reconnaissance team is good. Even Captain Li of the regiment health team came to us when he was tossing the medicine warehouse last time, so I blocked him back, huh!" Bearded company commander Tian said this As he spoke, he looked proud!
Second platoon leader Hu Zhijun interrupted: "Company commander, you can't whip the fast cow, you have to block it."
"That's right!" Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran also followed.
"It's okay, company leader, please rest assured. We have completed the mission well, which shows that the soldiers of our company are of high quality, and the honor belongs to the company." When Wang Ke saw the gods fighting, he immediately stepped forward to save the siege.
"Let's see, the scout squad leader can still talk." Instructor Ding laughed.
But Wang Ke still feels a little sour. When it comes to work, instructor Ding always praises himself. When it comes to solving the problem of joining the party, there is no chance. I really don't know what the company leader thinks.
well!
