    Fifteen military trucks lined up and headed west. At the front was Xiong Sanwa driving a Dodge six-wheel pickup truck. Because of his good driving skills, Xia Yang also sat in this car, and he was also considered a  command.  The last car in the battle was driven by Wang Peng. For safety reasons, Xia Yang arranged for Ge Bo, the commander of the third company, to sit in that car.  A total of more than 120 people from the third company followed, and each of the fifteen vehicles could seat seven to ten people, so there was no need to worry about anything going wrong.

    Zhang Xian and Chen Daxing were sitting in the same car. Chen Daxing was the driver, so he drove the car, but Zhang Xian was regarded as a mechanic of the automobile company.  This car is a ten-wheel Dodge truck, ranked third from the bottom.  In addition to the driver, there can be two people sitting in the carriage. In addition to Zhang Xian, there is also a squad leader of the third company. Because he is very tall, about 1.89 meters, everyone calls him Li Da.  Tall.  When they came out of Gaozhuang, because of the presence of this big man Li, neither Zhang Xian nor Chen Daxing took the initiative to say a word. Instead, this big man Li asked this and that. But as soon as he shut up, the people in the car building  The atmosphere immediately became dull again. He wanted to sleep for a while, but was knocked dizzy again. The three of them just drove to Guoyang City.  After lunch, the team continued on the road, but the big man Li didn't want to sit in the car. Although the car could withstand the cold wind, he was so frustrated that he would rather sit in the car.  In his words, he could chat and brag with his seven comrades, which was much better than guarding the two mutes Chen Daxing and Zhang Xian.

    When Big Man Li got to the back of the car, it was something that Zhang Xian and Chen Daxing couldn't wait for. It would be much easier for the two of them to talk about many things.  Since the grievance meeting, the working group has been asking them to talk to them and ask them to express their feelings, which makes them feel like they are on trial. They have to tense up their nerves all the time for fear that if they are not careful, they will say the wrong thing.  After every conversation, it was almost late at night, and they would fall asleep exhausted. For Zhang Xian and Chen Daxing, this kind of thing felt more tiring than rushing to fight with bayonets on the battlefield, so they spent several days  Neither of them said a few words. This was an opportunity to pour out each other's bitterness.

    Because they had to maintain the formation and the distance between vehicles, the convoy did not drive very fast. According to Xia Yang's plan, they had to arrive at Shiheji in the south of Bo County to spend the night before dark.  Zhang Xian turned his head, and through a small glass window at the back of the carriage building, he could see the PLA soldiers sitting in the carriage. Although the carriage was still covered with a tarpaulin, which separated the outside space,  But they still couldn't separate themselves from the biting cold. The soldiers wore thick cotton jackets and huddled together to keep warm, but they were also talking and laughing. I don't know what they were talking about, but it was very lively.

    "Ah Shui, what are they talking about?" Chen Daxing also heard the laughter from behind and couldn't help but ask.

    Zhang Xian shook his head, smiled bitterly, and said: "I can't hear clearly, maybe they are talking about capturing prisoners!"

    Chen Daxing was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, and said helplessly: "Haha, we are the prisoners they captured!" Zhang Xian did not answer immediately, thought for a while, and looked at the gray People's Liberation Army clothes on his body at this time.  Military uniform, he laughed at first, pointing to this suit of clothes and said: "Now I understand why the Communist Party is attacking more and more, but the National Army is attacking less and less! In fact, many people in the People's Liberation Army have been prisoners.  Just like me and you, they have done a good job in ideological and political work! They have done it thoroughly. It is no wonder that many people have forgotten their experience as a national army after they became the People's Liberation Army! You see, I am now  I¡¯m about to forget myself! I think I¡¯m also a member of the People¡¯s Liberation Army!¡±

    Chen Daxing turned to look at him and laughed, but said seriously: "Ah Shui, you are a member of the People's Liberation Army now, don't say you are not!" Zhang Xian was startled and understood that this was a kind reminder.  , nodded immediately, and said sadly: "In front of you and Sanwa, I still have a little dignity, but in front of others, I am just half a person!"

    Chen Daxing was silent. Indeed, Zhang Xian's nickname nowadays is "Banbianren", but few people call him "Yu Deshui".

    "There is a note in my pocket, please take it out for me and have a look!" Chen Daxing said to Zhang Xiandian with both hands on the steering wheel. He couldn't let go because the road conditions were bad.  Zhang Xian stretched out his hand and took out a neatly folded piece of paper from the pocket he pointed to. However, this piece of paper had obviously been rubbed by someone before and was still full of wrinkles.

    Chen Daxing took a look and saw that it was this note, so he said to Zhang Xian: "Take a look!"

    Zhang Xian opened it carefully, for fear of tearing the piece of paper, butThere happened to be four relatively large shops, a pawn shop, a medicine shop, a rice shop, and a restaurant. There were also several stalls selling steamed buns, groceries, and cloth, which were quite lively.

    Zhang Xian felt a little emotional. As the commander of the 11th Division, he followed the 12th Corps from Henan to Huaibei. Every village and town he passed along the way, the people ran away, as if they were avoiding the plague.  Looking at them; there was a time when he really thought that this was an uninhabited yellow area.  Until now, when he saw the bustling crowd and heard the cries of vendors all over the street, his mood was already hard to calm down. He had not seen this kind of scene for a long time. It was like a world of difference.  It seems that the liberated areas are not as advertised by the National Government. There is only land reform, no economy, and no prosperity.

    Because he was wearing the uniform of the People's Liberation Army, two teenagers in their teens were following Zhang Xian. The uncle shouted, hoping that he could tell him some war stories.  Zhang Xianzheng was about to tell these two brats away with a story, but he heard a burst of children's laughter: "Hit him! Beat him, beat him to death!" He couldn't help but follow the sound and looked over, and saw what he saw.  Five or six eight or nine-year-old children were holding stones and throwing them at a beggar with a muddy face lying on the roadside. The beggar was holding a dumpling that was thrown by someone who didn't know who it was, and his black hands didn't care about anything.  Dirty or not, he was devouring it and putting it in his mouth, not caring about the stones falling on him.

    "How can a child bully others like this?" Zhang Xian couldn't help but walked over and shouted loudly.

    When these children saw the People's Liberation Army coming, they ran away.

    ¡°He is a fool!¡± One of the two teenagers who pestered Zhang Xian to tell him a story told him.

    "Oh? Why is he stupid?" Zhang Xian couldn't help but ask.

    Another child said: "He even eats dog poop!"

    "Is he from here?" Zhang Xian couldn't help but ask again.

    "No!" the first boy replied, and told him at the same time: "He appeared two days ago, I don't know where he came from!"

    "Oh!" Zhang Xian nodded. In this troubled world, there are so many beggars and fools that no one cares about them.

    Looking at this beggar, Zhang Xian couldn't help but feel a little sad. He thought about how much luckier he was compared to him.  At that moment, he walked over and came to the beggar's side, but the two teenagers who were pestering him did not follow him. Instead, they watched from a distance, obviously thinking that the beggar was an evil spirit.

    The beggar obviously heard the movement behind him and turned around involuntarily. His eyes met Zhang Xian's. Zhang Xian couldn't help but tremble all over. Although this man's face was full of filth and the sky was too dark,  With his keen eyesight, he recognized it immediately, it was an old friend of his!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
