Li Dongsheng sent Wan Lin and others back to the guest house, and then followed Wang Tiecheng to the Provincial National Security Bureau to report the situation to the leaders.
The exhausted team members took a nice hot bath in the guest house, and then went to the restaurant for dinner. When they walked to the restaurant, they were shocked by the table full of dishes, which were piled with delicacies from all over the world.
Zhang Wa raised her chopsticks and shouted, "It's so rich, come on, brothers!" Just as she picked up a piece of sea cucumber, Li Dongsheng walked in accompanied by Director Wang Molin of the National Security Bureau and the leaders of the provincial department. Everyone quickly put down their chopsticks and stood up to salute.
Director Wang cheerfully waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down quickly.
He picked up the wine glass and said loudly, "Brothers, as a former veteran soldier, I just want to say one thing today, that is, you have used your blood and sweat, life and death to create the military might of the Chinese army! You have created ours.
National prestige! The reputation of the Leopard Commandos has been established! The motherland thanks you! The National Security Bureau thanks you! I thank you! I will definitely ask for credit from my superiors for you! Come on, do it!" He drank it all in one gulp.
These soldiers, who had shed blood and sweat on the battlefield and were unyielding, shed tears when they heard the old soldier's voice: "The motherland thanks you!"...
Because their blood was not shed in vain! They were satisfied. They roared "Serve the motherland!", picked up the wine glass, and drank it all.
Two days later, Li Dongsheng and Wang Tiecheng led Wan Lin to the Armed Police Hospital to change Xiaohua's medicine, and then visited the injured Dali and Chengru. Dali was injured in the back by rocket shrapnel, and 6 shrapnel were removed during the operation; Chengru
He was shot by a sniper rifle bullet. The bullet entered from the right rib and grazed his heart and stopped at the left rib. Da Li lay on the bed and Cheng Ru lay on his back. When the two of them saw them, they both wanted to get up and were beaten by Wan.
Lin and the others pressed down.
While everyone was greeting each other in the ward, Li Dongsheng asked the accompanying dean a little nervously, "How are they doing now?" The dean cheerfully replied, "These two people are in very good physical condition, and their lives are no longer in danger after the operation. They just need to recuperate.
It’ll be fine after a while.”
Li Dongsheng felt relieved: "I want to transfer them to our military hospital. Do you think it's okay?" The director smiled and said, "No problem, but they have to go back lying down."
On the way back to the guest house, Captain Wang Tiecheng of the armed police looked at Wan Lin carefully and said: "In half a year, I have grown taller and matured. In the past six months, the state has invested in building roads in the mountains, and they have almost reached your doorstep. Last month I returned
We sent someone to see your grandpa. Why don't you go home this time?" Wan Lin raised his head and glanced at Li Dongsheng. Li Dongsheng smiled and said, "I'm going back to summarize the battle this time, and I won't go back until I get the military medal."
Wan Lin nodded silently. Wang Tiecheng's words reminded him of his grandfather and the mountains and forests where he had lived since childhood. There was a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.
On the third day, the commando team returned to the base by plane, and the ambulance took Cheng Ru and Dali directly to the military hospital. In the next few days, Li Dongsheng organized the commando team to conduct a battle review and summary. In the afternoon, Li Dongsheng was cheerful
After returning from the military region, I reported good news to everyone: at the request of the National Security Bureau, the military region applied and the Ministry of National Defense finally approved: the "Leopard Commando" was awarded first-class collective merit; Wan Lin was awarded special merit and was directly promoted to the rank of second lieutenant; Wang Dali
, Zhang Wa and Cheng Ru received first-class merit, Dali and Zhang Wa were promoted to sergeants, Cheng Ru was promoted to lieutenant, and the rest were awarded second- and third-class merit and promoted. Li Dongsheng was awarded the rank of senior colonel.
After the investiture ceremony, Li Dongsheng smiled and said to Wan Lin, "Okay, you can go to the hospital to visit Dali and Chengru. By the way, you can check Xiaohua to see how she is recovering? After visiting them, I will give you 20 days of leave."
, go back and see grandpa, this is a reward from the team. My second lieutenant," he said, throwing the car keys to him, "just drive my car."
Wan Lin stroked the little flower lying on his shoulder: "Thank you, captain. I've been so anxious these days. I always wanted to go to the hospital to see Dali and the others." He took the key and ran out.
Wan Lin ran back to the dormitory, picked up Zhang Wa and ran out: "Let's go see Dali." When Zhang Wa heard this, he shouted: "Really, go ask the captain for leave first." Wan Lin shook the key in his hand.
He said happily: "The captain gave me the car, why are you asking for leave?"
The two drove the car very fast and arrived at the provincial capital. When they entered the urban area, Zhang Wa shouted from the side: "Slow down, there are many people in the urban area. Stop at a shopping mall and buy something to comfort them."
In the shopping mall, the two of them bought a bunch of fruits and nutritional supplements. When they arrived at the hospital, they saw Xiaoli holding Dali and Rongrong holding Chengru walking in the hospital area.
Seeing their strength from afar, they spoke with a high-pitched Shandong accent: "Babys, do you still remember me?" The two ran over carrying their things. Zhang Wa circled around the two of them and took photos.
Dali patted his back and said, "You are recovering well." Dali grinned and shouted, "Be gentle, my little ancestor."
Seeing Wan Lin and Zhang Wa, Xiaoli and Rongrong abandoned Chengru and Dali and ran to a pile of condolences on the ground. They shouted with a smile: "Here comes us delicious food again."
The baby's little face tightened: "What is it for you? It's for the wounded, please step aside." Rongrong showed a bright smile: "Hey, it's just for us. If you don't believe me, just ask them."
Cheng Ru smiled beside him and said, "Isn't that right? In the past few days, the Li brigade and the military region chief came every three days, bringing a lot of food and drink every time. But as soon as they left, their things were taken to their nurse station.
Well, the euphemistic name is: they help us keep it with their mouths.”
The chubby Rongrong stuffed a piece of banana into her mouth and stared at the little flower on Wan Lin's shoulder, wanting to touch it but not daring to touch it: "Little mountain man, you are so shameless. You didn't even say to see your sister when you came back. Your sister is
"You stare at the window every day," "You're talking nonsense, and I can't stop your mouth." Wan Xiaoya, who had just run over, smiled and gave Rongrong a slap.
"Whoosh", Xiaohua, who had been lying on Wan Lin's shoulder, wagging her tail and jumped onto Xiaoya's shoulder. Xiaoya was so happy that she hugged Xiaohua into her arms. Suddenly she saw the bandage tied on Xiaohua's hind leg and rushed towards her.
Wan Lin cried out distressedly: "What did you do to it?" Wan Lin quickly replied: "It's injured and it's fine. You can change its dressing later."
When Xiaoya heard that Xiaohua was okay, she carefully stroked Xiaohua's fur and circled around Wan Lin. She fluttered her long eyelashes and exclaimed in surprise: "Hey, Lieutenant, you've been promoted!" Touched Wan Lin.
The shoulder patch with one bar and one star said: "How is it possible? The last time I saw you, you were a private. How come you were directly promoted to second lieutenant?"
Xiaoli also looked at Zhang Wa and shouted: "How come you have become a sergeant?" Rongrong stuffed bananas in her mouth and muttered vaguely: "Isn't it borrowed?"
"Hmph." Zhang Wa pulled Cheng Ru and Wang Dali to his side, puffed up his chest and said, "I borrowed it. How can we do such useless things? Listen up: First-class meritorious officials Zhang Wa, Wang Dali and Cheng
Confucianism is here."
"First class merit, oh my god." The three girls' eyes widened with shock on their faces. This is the title of a hero.
No wonder they were surprised. During peacetime, first-class meritorious officials and above were approved by the Ministry of National Defense. There were only a few in the entire military region, but they had never seen any of them.
Xiaoya hurriedly took Wan Lin's hand and asked eagerly: "Where are you?" Wan Lin blushed and did not answer. Zhang Wa beside him said in a longer tone: "Well, I'm sorry...", he paused.
Suddenly, he saw the expectant eyes of the three girls and shouted, "Grand Merit! Ah!" The three beauties opened their mouths wide.
Back in the ward, Rongrong's quick talk spread the news throughout the nurse station that three first-class meritorious officials and one special-class meritorious official were in Ward 302. She also specifically mentioned that the little mountain people who caused a sensation in the military region were inside.
The young and beautiful nurses, one holding a sling bottle and the other holding a syringe, shuttled into Ward 302 like a revolving door. They first looked at the four people carefully as if they were looking at giant monkeys, and finally walked to the little mountain man and pinched them.
He touched his arms, touched his head, and then ran out with a smile. The four gentlemen, whose faces remained unchanged in the hail of bullets, turned red and at a loss.
Xiaoya held Xiaohua in her arms and pulled the embarrassed Wan Lin out of the ward with a smile: "Let's go change Xiaohua's dressing." She carried Xiaohua to the trauma treatment room. When she carefully untied the gauze on Xiaohua's hind legs, she saw a
Yuandong, exclaimed: "penetrating injury, this is a gunshot wound."
Then she stopped talking, just silently cleaning Xiaohua's wound, applying medicine and bandaging it again, and then kissed Xiaohua's forehead gently.
After doing all this, she slowly raised her head, her big bright eyes flashing with a touch of sadness, and asked softly: "What did you do? Why is it a gunshot wound?"
Looking at Xiaoya's worried eyes, Wan Lin's heart trembled. This big boy who had been lonely since childhood suddenly felt a warmth that he had never felt before!
He grabbed Xiaoya's hand and said, "Sister, it's okay, don't worry." He pointed to his epaulettes: "I'm a second lieutenant, an adult, and can take care of myself. By the way, the captain gave me 20 days off. I want to go back.
See grandpa, can you go?"
Xiaoya's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said with joy, "I have annual leave, and I have wanted to see your legendary grandpa for a long time. Let's leave tomorrow." She often heard Zhang Wa mention Wanjia Kungfu in chats
She has long been full of longing for the grandfather who raised and taught this little brother.
Xiaoya has been pampered since she was a child, and she is used to seeing the dandies who surround her every day in the city. Ever since this simple boy saved her on the long-distance train last time, she has developed a crush on this boy with a big tabby cat.
Great curiosity and affection.
Every time she was with this younger brother whom she had inadvertently recognized, she could feel a fresh and at ease feeling that she had never experienced in the past. Ever since she learned that Wan Lin's parents had died and that he only had a grandfather who had depended on each other in the mountains and forests since childhood,
