[When I first entered this world, the new editor I was in was preparing for the battle, and the one who was scolded by everyone in private, said that we would definitely beat the Japanese devils this time so we didn't even know their parents... But as a result... hehe, fled, fled all the way.]

The endless defeated soldiers seemed to fill the world, and Xia Tian, ​​who was supporting Deputy Meng, who was confused and asked at a loss:

"Where are we going?"

A day ago, after the Japanese left their positions to continue attacking, Deputy Meng Lian bandaged the wounds and dragged Xia Tian, ​​who was shocked by the death of death, left the battlefield where 106 comrades were left.

And one day later, they walked forward with countless confused defeated soldiers in a daze and numbness, not knowing the way back or the way to go.

Deputy Meng Lian said numbly: "Go to the place you should go."

"where?"

“Go wherever you should.”

"Where?" Xia Tian continued to inquire, Meng Lian yelled and said, "Go to find a place to contain the defeated soldiers, then go to war, and then continue to be the defeated soldiers or die in a place that should be damned or not!"

"Oh." Xia Tian responded lightly, looking at the number of defeated soldiers who could not count, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

One supported him and the other accepted him. The two continued to move forward with the flow with difficulty. After finally meeting a river that became turbid due to the destruction of the defeated soldiers, countless destruction soldiers rushed over and joined the crowd of people who ruined the river.

The water became more and more turbid due to the destruction of countless defeated soldiers, but the defeated soldiers who rushed forward did not care about the turbidity of the river. They held the water and poured them into their mouths. The defeated soldiers were like locusts because they had no logistics. Everyone would use all kinds of methods to rob, plunder and kill them in order to eat in one bite. The more defeated soldiers, the less they could find something to fill their stomachs.

This cripple and a newcomer who was full of fear of everything were the ones at the bottom among the defeated soldiers. What could they have to eat?

Deputy Meng Lian pushed Xia Tian away and tried to squeeze into the river, pouring water into his stomach to suppress the desperate hunger. Xia Tian stared blankly at the group of people who looked like animals. Finally, he gritted his teeth and tried a lot to squeeze to the river. After holding a handful of water in both hands, he could not bring the water to his mouth.

Until the end, he did not send the water to his mouth, but soaked his hands in the river and washed his dirty hands over and over again.

Deputy Meng Lian, who was full, squeezed away the defeated soldiers around him, found his "crawler" and said, "It's time for us to leave."

Xia Tian shook his head and said, "Wait a minute."

After waiting for a long time, the defeated soldiers like sheep were finally gone around. Xia Tian took off his dirty shoes, rolled up his trousers and walked into the middle of the river. After cleaning his helmet for a while, he carefully scooped up the river water of a helmet.

Meng Lianshang looked at Xia Tian's actions and laughed and said, "It's useless, useless. Those bastards are ruining the upper class. They will be the same everywhere they go to drink, they will be the same."

He remembered the beginning of his abandoning his pen and joining the army. At that time, he followed the defeated soldiers, but he disliked him not drinking the dirty river water. The horse and donkey who smashed the tank with a stock like a fool joked about him. He stubbornly waited until the water was clear and drank happily. As a result, he saw countless corpses stuck in the river in the upper reaches of the river.

Look, the same - they are the same, they are the defeated soldiers, the rivers, and the defeat is desperate and hopeless.

Xia Tian didn't know about the mental activity of Deputy Meng Lian. He went ashore with a helmet full of water, and carefully handed over the helmet to Deputy Meng Lian, who was only 24 years old and had countless defeats. Then he looked for firewood and took matches that Mr. Meng Lian had never lit on the battlefield, and created a bunch of bonfires that made people cry.

"Even if it's a little dirty, boiling water is always cleaner than cold water." Xia Tian explained his actions after washing his hands. Meng Lian looked at Xia Tian's washing hands again. The hands that looked dirty but were obviously washed were dazzling. He said:

"It's useless, it's useless to wash it, it'll get dirty in a while."

"Wash it if it's dirty, don't move," Xia Tian, ​​who was squatting in front of Meng Lian, said distractedly, while untiing the bandage that Meng Lian had exploded with his wounds - if that's called a bandage.

"This thing is too dirty and must be infected. Take boiled water and sterilize it."

Deputy Meng Lian was stunned. He seemed to have forgotten the knowledge in the school. He looked at Xia Tian blankly and tried his best to think about the past, but...

Those memories seem to be separated from me for several lifetimes.

A long time later, Deputy Meng Lian said: "You are different from them."

Xia Tian looked at the bandages soaked in the water and said for a long time: "The same."

Same humbleness.

Deputy Meng Lian understood what Xia Tian meant, so he laughed and said, "Yes, the same thing, sooner or later, it will be the same."

At this time, Deputy Meng Lian looked at his "crawler" carefully - the new editor who was in his name could see a lot of things. If he was not familiar with the reasons why most of the soldiers were, he looked at his young face and asked, "How old are you?"

“20.”

"It's almost the same as me at that time." Meng Lianpang sighed and said, "Why don't you call me like them?"

After appearing in that company in summer, everyone called the company commander "Company Captain" or "Supervisor" because the company commander's authority was very powerful, but everyone would only shout "I'm upset" to Deputy Meng Lian.

Even though I started calling me "supervisor", I was shouting "irritated" when I got to the back.

Because Meng Lian’s deputy name is Meng Fan, and he has no official power.

"I've called it."

"You bastard, I thought they were dead and no one called me like that again." Deputy Meng Lian laughed, and began to scream as he smiled, and tears came out together. One hundred and six guys, familiar and unfamiliar, were all lying there, no one collecting the corpses, no one erected them - because they were defeated, because the Japanese at most dig a pit for farmers, piled them up in the pit, and covered them with soil.

A group of lives struggled humbly for decades, young, strong, old or weak, all piled up together, and turned into fertilizer without distinction.

There was no feeling like Meng Lian in summer, but he felt very cold, his heart was thorny, and his bones were cold. When he was unconscious, he did not see the corpses everywhere, but he remembered the crowds of people when he went to the battlefield, and the eagerness for victory for the group of people on the battlefield.

And now, there are only two poor people living aimlessly.

...

Soldiers pass by like bandits - When soldiers holding guns cannot be fed, they have to become bandits to fill their stomachs. For the sake of local security, the army has to establish a shelter station that restrains the defeated soldiers to contain the tide-like defeated soldiers.

Along the way, Xia Tian, ​​who was supporting Meng Lian, saw one shelter after another in the town and the county town along the way, but the answers he received were full. Then he pointed out the direction for the aimless defeated soldiers, sent a little food to fill their stomachs like beggars, and asked them to go to the next shelter station - guided the way again and again, and moved forward numbly again and again. Finally, twenty days later, a shelter station established in a small town called Chanda accommodated the two defeated soldiers.

[Twenty days along the way, I have seen many defeated soldiers, and even walked with many defeated soldiers. However, there is no friendship between us to join the regiment for warmth. There is only plunder and pitiful interreliance. However, after arriving at Zenda, all this changed.]

Zenda is a small town, and the small town has been baptized by the defeated soldiers and has become even more destitute.

In order to restrain these defeated soldiers, the commanders had to turn an alley into a military zone and concentrate all the defeated soldiers in the military zone - but it was not very useful, because the sentries at both ends of the entrance of the alley were still held by the defeated soldiers, and how could the defeated soldiers restrain each other?

Xia Tian supported Meng Lian and walked into the dirty, messy, bad and smelly alley. Then he asked in the room if he could get a partner. Finally, he was taken to a smelly yard by a frown old man.

"General Lin, there are two people here, add us here." After the old man entered the door, he shouted to a handsome officer. The reason why he could see that the other party was an officer was because the other party was still wearing a school uniform - the terrifying major was hung on the rank of a major, but after the major spoke um, Deputy Meng Lian, who was supported by Xia Tian, ​​immediately returned to his usual indifferent posture.

Xia Tian, ​​who has changed from a college life to a defeated soldier and an old defeated soldier, instantly understood the root cause of Meng Lian's change in his state.

This major is not worth mentioning.

The major's yes, a um, made the yard more than two more. The defeated soldiers who covered the sky and the sun looked at the newly added two people in numbly without any reaction. Xia Tian glanced cautiously and found a place where he could settle down, and wanted to support Meng Lian over.

"Hey, he is injured, he should go to the injured barracks," the old man stopped the two of them at this time and said, "How about you send him to my injured barracks?"

"Is there an injured barracks?" Xia Tian looked at the old man in surprise. The old man's face looked radiant at that moment. He asked carefully: "Are you a military doctor?"

"Military doctor? Veterinarian!" A joking voice came from the defeated soldiers: "Doctor Hao, the wounded barracks, is now eleven guys waiting to die. Don't go there. When his wound becomes inflamed and needs to die, just throw it to death."

The joking voice tells the terrifying cruelty.

"Doctor Hao is not a doctor - he is just a veterinarian. He is a bullshit barracks. If you want medicine, no medicine, and nothing to eat, we are waiting to die. If you go to the barracks, you will die."

The cruel words made Veterinarian Hao yell: "Can a few donkeys speak human words?"

"What howl? Is it still so that people can't sleep?" A voice full of Northeast flavor rang out from the recliner not far away, and a man covered in flesh shouted, "Are you so much nonsense? Hey, are you a newcomer?" The man said in surprise:

"Hey, I have food, canned food, clothes, whatever I want, do I want?"

In normal times, Xia Tian’s first reaction was, but the twenty days of the defeated soldiers made him understand many principles that he might not be able to understand in his life. Sure enough, the other party’s next sentence proved his foresight:

"I am always a good person in business, but I am just one rule and I don't have to pay any credit! I want to be tough, I welcome you, I am just about to send my bones."

"We don't want it." Meng Deputy Lian seemed to have seen such bully-like existences, and said with a hint of flattery, completely ignoring his official power, although he had no official power at all.

In this way, two new defeated soldiers were added to this yard, which were as pitiful as the previous residents.

The familiarity between the defeated soldiers is often because of hunger. After the two men settled down, there are continuous defeated soldiers coming up to ask if there is any food. However, reality quickly dispersed. Only the defeated soldiers who were full of Shanxi's taste when they spoke were asking tirelessly:

"Is there anything to eat?"

"Is there any fire?"

“Does anyone have needles or threads?”

"Does there smoke?"

"Does anyone have tobacco?"

Xia Tian initially answered no, but when the other party asked for the third sentence, he was too lazy to say it, but the man kept asking for something that he would never get from Xia Tian and Meng Lian. It was not until later that Xia Tian knew that this guy was called Kang Ya, or an official, a ridiculous warrant officer platoon leader, but now he was just an idiot with only one button, no soldiers, no guns, no bullets, under his command.

Or it looks like self-protection.

The yard returned to peace, but a place attracted the attention of many people - the place where the fugitives gathered the eyes of the deceased was the recliner and the room behind the recliner.

"Do you know what's in that room? Clothes, food, canned food, cigarettes, and medicine. Look at your companion, he is injured and must need medicine." Someone was seducing Xia Tian in Xia's ears. She was a sloppy man with a bruised nose and a bruised nose and a bruised nose and a bruised nose and a pity that was the same as many soldiers in this yard, and sloppy, but it was the same as that.

Xia Tian was moved for a moment, but was pulled by Deputy Meng Lian beside him. Deputy Meng Lian said to the defeated soldiers who seduced Xia Tian:

"We two walked all the way over for twenty days."

The defeated soldiers looked at Deputy Meng Lian in confusion.

"In other words, we dare to join forces to beat you up. Do you think you have any help?" Meng Lianshou waved his fist, and the other party was timid and muttered:

"It's amazing to beat people? If you have the ability to beat Milong, tell you, as long as you beat Milong, you will be able to eat delicious food and drink spicy food."

"Get out!" Deputy Meng Lian changed his face. The other party was no longer entangled and moved away slowly. After the man left, Deputy Meng Lian whispered to Xia Tian: "Learn smarter here, don't think about grabbing food from the bully, and don't try to trust others - they will only throw you out as a scapegoat at critical moments."

Xia Tian nodded and said that he would not show off his strength. Not long after, he saw Milong's barbarity and toughness. A defeated soldier tried to negotiate with Milong, and the essence of the negotiation was to make a fuss. Milong quickly turned his face and swung his old fist. The negotiated defeated soldiers ran into the crowd to try to attract reinforcements, but wherever they went, all the defeated soldiers retreated and did not even have the courage to meet Milong.

The defeated soldiers could no longer run and became a poor worm trembling under Milong's fist. Milong beat him very fiercely, and he was hitting him to death.

"Don't fight anymore? If you fight again, you will kill people." A very light suffocation sounded. Xia Tian looked in surprise and found that the major was the one who made a sound. The major's voice was very soft, as if he was whispering. The sound of the soldiers shocked many of the soldiers from such a distance. The soldiers looked over one after another, but the major who made a sound became restless, like a shy girl.

Xia Tian wanted to laugh, but then he silenced. At that moment, he thought: What kind of face do you have to laugh at others?

Milong was still beating this lifeless soldier, surrounded by cold eyes. Finally, Xia Tian yelled like an idiot and a fool: "I'm beaten! I'll be beaten to death if I beat you again!"

The furious Milong looked at Xia Tian who shouted like a hungry wolf. Just when Xia Tian thought he would vent his anger like a hooligan, Milong stopped his waving fists and cursed loudly:
To be continued...
