After a dreamless night, Tang Cheng slept very well. When he woke up after being pushed, Tang Cheng sat up like a zombie, frightening Zhang Xiaobao who pushed him to get up and screamed. In the roar of others
Amidst the laughter, Zhang Xiaobao, who was quite annoyed and angry, glared angrily at Tang Cheng. The latter pretended not to know anything and looked stupidly at Zhang Xiaobao, whose big eyes met his own, causing Liu Shitou and the others to burst into laughter.
Tang Cheng's left hand was pinched tightly by Zhang Xiaobao, but Hou San, Liu Shitou and Dice just laughed and showed no intention to stop him. Zhang Xiaobao kept pinching him and refused to let go, so Tang Cheng had to pretend that the injury had recurred.
Zhang Xiaobao fell backwards, and Zhang Xiaobao was startled, so he let go. When Tang Cheng suppressed his laughter and reached out to touch Zhang Xiaobao's head, Zhou He realized that he had been deceived by Tang Cheng again. "Good morning.
Knowing that you're like this, I shouldn't have asked you to get up to eat. I'll starve you to death." Zhang Xiaobao got up and left angrily. Tang Cheng touched his nose and stood up with Liu Shitou's help.
"Don't tell me, these are the military uniforms you bought with money. Why don't they look better to me than the uniforms of those regiment members in Longgang Town?" When they gathered around to drink porridge, Tang Cheng finally noticed Liu Shitou and others.
The semi-old military uniform he was wearing was so baggy that it looked like something he had picked up, especially the one on Zhang Xiaobao, which made the already slim Zhang Xiaobao look even skinnier.
"That's not bad. Look at the wounded soldiers in the military station. Who is dressed as Zhou Zheng as the rest of us?" Liu Shitou was very dissatisfied with Tang Cheng's demeanor and expression when he spoke, and turned around secretly.
He rolled his eyes at Tang Cheng. "I would like to find a few tailors to make a few pieces like we did in Longgang Town, but I can't find any suitable fabrics here. The 58th Army is the Yunnan Army and not an authentic national army. It can be made
It’s good to have something like this. By the time we leave Sandu Town, everyone’s military uniforms will no longer be visible to anyone.”
Seeing that Tang Cheng just nodded and no longer bothered about the military uniform, Liu Shitou held the bowl with one hand and reached into his pocket with the other hand to take out a pair of small scissors and a few pieces of tinplate can skin. The attraction was successful.
After catching Tang Cheng's gaze, Liu Shitou explained with some satisfaction, "When I snatched you back from the river, the document bag you were carrying was missing, and a piece of your original national army rank was also missing in that bag.
The 58th Army’s ranks are different from ours, I’m going to cut out some of our 88th Division’s ranks for you to wear.”
Liu Shitou's move made Tang Cheng laugh out loud, and he almost choked on the rice porridge in his mouth. The angry Liu Shitou stretched out his hand to pinch his neck. Only then did Tang Cheng promise that he was not laughing at Liu Shitou's childish behavior. It was just a moment.
It was an ordinary meal of rice porridge, but Tangcheng and the others drank it in a lively manner. It was already half an hour later when everyone put down their rice bowls and went about their own business.
Tang Cheng, who was rubbing his eyes, walked out of the warehouse with the help of Zhang Xiaobao. Other wounded soldiers in the military station who could move around like Tang Cheng had also gotten up and washed themselves outside. As Liu Shitou said, other people in the military station
They all looked ragged, and some of the wounded soldiers were only wearing military trousers but with no upper body. Tang Cheng looked down at the brand-new military shoes on his feet. He just saw two barefoot guys, and
Compared with them, I am so happy.
Subconsciously, he turned around and looked into the warehouse where he had slept all night. The warehouse was almost empty. The beds made of broken bricks and wooden boards were filled with Tangcheng's own things. Everyone had two clean sets.
The military uniforms include a new pair of leggings, a backpack like the Japanese army, a water bottle and a bayonet. Most importantly, each of them in Tangcheng has their own weapons and ammunition. The sun shines through the open warehouse door, and the simple bed is covered with
Those things looked very warm, but that warmth made Tang Cheng feel very sad.
Liu Shitou and the others were already familiar faces in the military depot, but Tang Cheng, who was standing at the door of the warehouse at this time, was a new face that they had never seen before. The wounded soldiers gathered in the yard to wash up looked at it strangely.
Tang Cheng was being supported by Zhang Xiaobao. I had always heard that Zhang Xiaobao and the others had a seriously injured officer. Could it be that he was this pale-faced and fragile-looking boy? The wounded soldiers looked at Tang Cheng, but they didn’t know that Tang Cheng was also looking at them.
When these wounded soldiers were washing up, Tangcheng seemed to be back in the big courtyard in Qiandeng Town.
The water level here in the south is very high. You can dig out water just by digging a few meters down. There is a well in the yard of the reception station. The wounded soldiers seen in Tangcheng were washing around the well platform. A short and stocky man
The guy poured soap all over his head but couldn't find the water ladle. He closed his eyes and groped around, but several people around him kept moving the water ladle and placed it in a place out of his reach. What's more, he grabbed one.
The guy with a smile on his face tied up his trouser legs and poured water into them, and then watched him leave with difficulty in a pair of bloomers.
All of this was too familiar to Tang Cheng. After he left Shanghai with Liu Yangyang and the others, he and the veterans of the Second Company had the same fights in the big yard in Qiandeng Town.
But the unlucky guy wearing bloomers at that time was himself. Two guys with cloth towels around their necks wiped Tang Cheng and Zhang Xiaobao past, but Tang Cheng grabbed Zhang Xiaobao who was about to move forward, and then rushed towards the unaware
Zhang Xiaobao lowered his mouth, and just at the feet of the two of them, two small pieces of soap appeared in Zhang Xiaobao's sight.
Zhang Xiaobao glared fiercely at the wounded soldiers who were secretly looking over here. He kicked up the two small pieces of soap and kicked them far away. Seeing that Tang Cheng failed to slip as expected, the wounded soldiers were very worried.
Regretfully. Zhang Xiaobao wanted to have a fit, but was stopped by Tang Cheng. This was always the case in the military camp. Newcomers would suffer some losses, not to mention that they were not members of the Yunnan Army. Ignoring the cries of the wounded soldiers, Tang Cheng
Accompanied by Zhang Xiaobao, I walked around the shelter all morning. Walking around and taking a look was not only beneficial to Tang Cheng's recovery from his injuries, but also allowed Tang Cheng to better understand the shelter.
"It must be Zhang Tuzi's gangsters. I'll go find them later to settle the score. My cigarettes are not in vain. He dares to cause trouble for us. Zhang Tuzi has gained a lot of courage." During lunch,
Zhang Xiaobao, who had been angry all the time, still told Liu Shitou and the others what happened in the morning. Liu Shitou immediately wanted to go find trouble with the wounded soldiers, but Tan Fei persuaded him to go after lunch.
"I'm going out for a while. Which one of you will come with me?" Mu Lianshan, who was the only one who ate slowly, put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands. Liu Shitou and Tan Fei, who were just arguing about finding trouble with the wounded soldiers, immediately raised their arms.
, saying that he wanted to go out with Mu Lianshan. Mu Lianshan not only treated the wounded soldiers in the reception station, but also visited the local wealthy people in Liuyang, and the wealthy people paid mediocre medical fees.
There are a lot of them, and there are delicious food in rich people's homes. Of course, Hou San and Dice wanted to go there because they wanted to see the beautifully dressed women in rich people's homes.
"Forget it, I'm not going, Shitou, don't go either. I'm going down to find Zhou Mazi. I heard that this guy still has some Western medicine in his hand. I'm trying to see if I can use that Japanese pistol to get Zhou Mazi from
Mazi brings some medicine in hand, you can bargain, and you and I will go to Zhao Zhou Mazi." As long as there are places where defeated soldiers gather, there will be a black market, and it is the same here in Liuyang. The defeated soldiers will use their own weapons.
Ammunition went to the black market in exchange for food and medicine. Although Tang Cheng and the others had not fallen that far, they could exchange things they could not use for something useful, and Tang Cheng was happy to do so.
After getting along for a long time, everyone has a certain tacit understanding with each other. A few people decided what to do in the afternoon in a few words. Hou San, Lin Ying and Ma Fatty followed Mu Lianshan on his afternoon visit. Tan Fei, Wu Laosan and
Liu Shitou went to the black market to get medicine, and the rest of the people stayed in the shelter. Only Dice was allowed to go out alone. "Dice made a new slingshot, and there was a place outside the shelter with many birds. Let him go there."
After fighting for a while, maybe we will have some meat to eat tonight." The reason why Dice was allowed to go out alone was actually because of the slingshot. If this had happened in the past, Tangcheng would have given Liu Shitou a slap in the face.
I don’t know what Liu Shitou and Tan Fei said to the wounded soldiers before they left. When Tang Cheng saw the wounded soldiers again in the afternoon, the most vicious ones among the wounded soldiers would pretend to be "I" when they saw Tang Cheng.
With a busy face, he hid far away. "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have had to prepare this small stick. I was looking for such a straight stick in vain." It was not just Tang Cheng himself who was disappointed, but also those who had always been there.
Zhang Xiaobao, who was accompanying Tang Cheng, had no idea what Liu Shitou and the others had taught Zhang Xiaobao. Such a young child had learned to fight with sticks.
After walking around the entire shelter, Tang Cheng became familiar with the place where he had been staying for a month. Saying that this is the office of the 58th Army is a compliment. Liu Shitou and the others were right. This place is basically
It's just a shelter for wounded soldiers. Not only because there is a sign with the word "Housing Station" hanging at the door of the yard, I thought it was bad, but it was really bad.
Come quickly, there are only two rows of shabby houses in the shelter that is the size of two football fields and the large warehouse where Tangcheng and the others live. A 2-meter-high wall separates the people in the yard from the outside world. In the yard
A large area was covered with weeds. The wounded that Tangcheng had seen in the morning were lying in the open space like fish on the beach, basking in the sun. They would rather lie there and bask in the sun and chat than go and take care of them.
His stained military uniforms were washed clean. Compared with these wounded soldiers, Tang Cheng and the others, who were cleanly dressed and firing alone, were obviously aliens. It was no wonder that in the morning there were wounded soldiers who came to trouble Tang Cheng.
