Chapter 1217 Smoldering ([-])

The howling night wind swirled sharply in the mountains, and the chasing and slashing figures also sprinted in the mountains. The dark vision and the rugged slope made the slashing man fall to the ground and rolled on the grass slope, but then They got up again, shouting and chasing after them. After a while, the two of them fought and rolled into the stream between the slopes.

The staggering fights and collisions are all like conditioned reflexes that have been developed for a long time. The soldiers who were chasing and killing threw away the steel knives on their bodies and still swung their fists. Equally ferocious, as if returning to the Northland, he had imagined countless times that he would fight back after being discovered by the enemy. The wooden stick he picked up from the water was picked up by him and smashed on the opponent's shoulder, and then smashed on the opponent's shoulder. Head and face, until the young soldier was beaten to the point of bleeding, and fell to the edge of the stream.

Tang Minjie had actually been stabbed several times, standing in the stream under the moonlight, gasping for breath.

If it was on flat ground, he would not be the opponent at all. It is very likely that he would have been killed by the opponent after a few stabs. However, he took advantage of the familiar terrain during his hasty escape, and this result was just now.

The cold wind blowing at night, he looked down the mountain, and what he thought of was the figures of two Huaxia Army soldiers who were pushed high in the methane explosion...killed one of his own people...

At this moment, he was also slightly confused, not knowing why he wanted to run up the mountain.He looked down, and the torches had already been lit in the farms and villages, and the crowd was gathering...

I was stunned for a while.

He went to check the condition of the fallen soldier by the stream, then took out a rope and tied the soldier's hands, picked up the steel knife again, and dragged him forward.

……

At the foot of the mountain, in the 223 Agricultural Research Institute, a few security personnel have gathered, and other personnel in the institute have also taken knives, guns and plows, and gathered towards the composting field.

The middle-aged soldier checked his companions with red eyes. One of them had been killed on the spot, but the other was still breathing—to be precise, he was already in a dying state. A doctor with a little medical skill came over and was Do everything.

Chen Cirang came over to check the situation, and the other party notified his name: This middle-aged soldier is now the team leader of the Wenpu County Working Group, his name is Fang Lu, and his rank in the army is not low, at least Chen Cirang is completely out of reach. kind of height.

Knowing that it was Tang Minjie who had covered up the landlord in the accident and now escaped, Chen Renrang, who felt that the matter was not simple, defended him a few words, asking if there was a misunderstanding in this matter, Fang Lu pointed at his dead companion and went mad: "This is called Misunderstanding! You call this a misunderstanding! You call this a misunderstanding!?"

Chen Cirang knew that Tang Minjie's past was not simple, but of course he didn't dare to talk back now, and then he could only accept the other party's deployment: "You are locals, call everyone who can call, guard the escape route around you, be sure to To catch him, I have to interrogate myself."

The people in the village have also gathered.

Fang Lu went to his companion on the other side, and "The Cripple" also came over: "Xiao Yu chased after him immediately, but there is no news yet, so I'm afraid he's on the wrong track. Also... so many outsiders come, will it make you feel uncomfortable?" Things go wrong?"

"People who come back from the spy line are difficult to deal with. I expected it at first. But something happened to him, why didn't he run to a crowded place? Why didn't he shout?" Looking around, after thinking for a moment, he said, "If there are as many people as there are people, let's look for it together, let's go together, try our best...kill him on the spot."

Everyone nodded, gripped their weapons tightly, and walked up the mountain.

……

The mountain behind Xiaoye Village is not small, Tang Minjie dragged the soldiers of the Huaxia Army, marched up the mountain, walked for a while, the other party shook his head, and gradually became more sober, Tang Minjie forced him with a steel knife, went to the mountain deep walk.

The young soldier's head was covered with blood, and his consciousness was not very clear for a while, so was Tang Minjie.This sudden incident has shattered the dreams he had experienced in the past six months. He didn't even know what he was going to do next, how to do it, or even why he was going to do it...

Shouldn't have touched these things.

The night before, Qiu Yuanwai, who was hiding in the excrement bucket with injuries on his body, made him curious about the accusation made by the Huaxia Army working group. The other party was seriously injured, and the evidence was actually insufficient. Should I believe it or not, so I just made some arrangements subconsciously, waiting for the other party to fall into the trap.

If the other party is open and frank, everything will be carried out in a dignified manner, and someone will come to him and make formal inquiries and negotiations with him-he also believes that this should be the process.

All reactions are subconscious.Too skilled.

So much so that Tang Minjie didn't even know how to be in a good mood when the other party came to kill him.

The scene where the biogas pit killed two people hit him with a sap on the head even more.Why bother?Why did you come to this point all of a sudden?

At a certain moment, I heard the soldier in front of me cough violently, spit out a mouthful of blood, and cursed through gritted teeth: "...Why? Why... You are a bastard, why... You have the guts to kill me! Kill me!"

Tang Minjie was silent, but then said: "I'm sorry..."

"You can't live." The other said, "You know you can't live... You know they are heroes, my brothers, they all killed the golden dog in bloody battles, what are you, you bastard! You To be assigned to pick up dung is to kneel down to the enemy! You coward! I told you that you can't live—"

Tang Minjie pushed him forward with a knife, and partly agreed with what the other party said.

"But you...why would you do such a thing..."

"We...we are for the good of the Huaxia Army..."

"No." Tang Minjie shook his head. "You force people to sign the land deed, and then kill the whole family. When the land reform is completed, you rely on the land deed to get money, and there are other transactions in the middle..."

"Blood! You have no proof—"

"It can't be hidden. It's easy to find out if you investigate this matter. The temporary land deed must be filed as a fraud, which shows that you still have your own friends in the government. But many people in the local area know which lands belonged to Qiu's family in the past. You can deceive them. outsiders, but as long as the investigation has a direction, it is easy to get the bottom of it..."

"..."

"Also...you come to kill me, it means you are not calling yourself. How did you become like this..."

"..." The wind at night blew across the hills and the leaves in the woodland, the soldier was silent for a moment, "...what right do you have to say about me, you betrayer?"

"I don't mind you killing people. Even if you are a little extreme, it doesn't matter. I didn't want to care about it." Tang Minjie said, "But the Huaxia Army can't become like this, because it's public and private..."

"For business and personal gain?" The young soldier smiled and tilted his head, "This world was brought down by us."

Tang Minjie looked at him.

"It was my brother who fought it down!" The other party said, "It was fought down, desperately, do you know how many brothers died early, how many brothers were disabled, and how many brothers left behind a whole family. You coward Do you know? The Huahua World in Chengdu today belongs to someone else? Do you know how many brothers’ family members I have, who can’t see them when they’re sick and can’t use good medicine? Do you know that we went to Chengdu, A year's allowance is not enough to touch a girl's hand?"

Tang Minjie didn't speak.

"Isn't it vulgar? Bastards? But what are we all fighting for? To live a good life, shouldn't we? We want our family to go to the big city to feel proud, shouldn't we? I arrived in my teens Working hard in the army, injured and hungry, I want a beautiful girl, shouldn’t it? Especially those brothers who have died, their families, children, have a future that is no worse than anyone else, shouldn’t it Why do you serve as a soldier? In the past, whoever served as a soldier was not in order to exchange their lives for money or future, only the Huaxia Army... We are the strongest army in history! But there is no best thing!"

"... For wounded and sick soldiers, the army has arranged for doctors and recuperation, widows and children, I know that arrangements have been made by the superiors, don't talk nonsense."

"There is an arrangement, but it is an ordinary arrangement, an ordinary residence, an ordinary school, but have you ever visited Chengdu? Look at those people. They have all kinds of good things. Novelty gadgets, fine clothes and fine food, do you know that those of us who bring the children of our comrades to the city and look at those good things feel like we can’t afford them? You know we can’t afford them, and the comrades around us have broken legs Do you like it?"

"So you want to be greedy?"

"We, our boss...raised the children left by nineteen comrades-in-arms, we gave him the best things, and we spent the money here, with a clear conscience!"

"So..." Tang Minjie paused, "It's not just this land reform, you took money before that...how did you get it?"

The soldier was slightly stunned, and after a while, he smiled: "Those comrades in the working group are right. Redemption is not the answer. Keep these landlords, and sooner or later they will dig us down with resentment. Only Killing them is a once-for-all matter, and we only resell their land to the top at the lowest price, anyway, they will not be used after they die. If we do this once, everyone will live a good life and no one will be affected. Hurt. You coward, don’t you understand? The land is divided equally, and no one with opinions stays. Our Huaxia Army spends the least money, and all the heroes’ families will live a good life. This is the best As a result, this is the best result—”

After he spoke, he suppressed his voice and let out a low-pitched growl.Tang Minjie closed his eyes, and the sigh in his throat was almost a moan.

The two walked for a while, and stopped at a cave-like depression in the mountains, and sat on the ground. Tang Minjie was drowsy, and so was the other party, but after a moment of silence, the other party looked over with bloody eyes.

"You killed my brother, you can't live..."

He said this, and after a while, he said again: "Do you know, we didn't intend to kill you, we wanted to chat, we originally wanted... just cooperate with you. But it ended like this... "

After a while: "Where did you hide Qiu?"

Tang Minjie sat there in a daze, and sighed: "...not in 223."

"Still at the shit station?"

"..." Tang Minjie looked at him, he didn't know whether he admired or regretted his perseverance, but he finally showed a sarcastic smile: "He was injured too badly, and hid in the dung bucket. Halfway through his words, he was gone."

"..." The young soldier opened his mouth, "You deliberately..."

"Hmm..." sighed, "I thought there would be a good result, I thought... it was certain..."

"Hehe...hehe..." The soldier also laughed sarcastically, and then said again: "You killed my brother, you can't live..."

The night wind outside the cave was blowing, and there were also faint voices from the bottom of the mountain.The two rested for a while, Tang Minjie didn't move, but the young soldier didn't give up, and said after a while: "Why don't you run?"

After a while, he said again: "What happened to you outside?"

Tang Minjie ignored him, and only once when he said "you killed my brother" and made a curse, he slowly opened his mouth: "It should be called 'comrade'."

The young soldier seemed to be slightly taken aback, but then he said word by word: "...you deserve it too?"

Tang Minjie stopped talking.

Time passed bit by bit in the wind, and the search at the bottom of the mountain gradually spread. Tang Minjie leaned against the wall of the cave, but he didn't intend to leave anymore. His thoughts were a little chaotic, recalling the peace of the past six months, But just a slight movement of evil thoughts, after all, two more people were killed.He knew that the young soldiers in the cave were still gently grinding the rope in his hand on the stone wall, Tang Minjie knew he should stop it, but he just didn't bother to speak.

He even dozed off slightly.

I don't know when it was at night, but there was movement from outside. Tang Minjie opened his eyes, looked at the soldier opposite, and then raised his long knife: "Don't speak." But the soldier stood up. He untied it, and there was a loud shout in his mouth: "Here——"

This sound tore through the night sky. This side is a small hole formed by the depression of the stone wall. The distance between the two is not far. Tang Minjie waved his hand casually, and the knife was already pressed on the other party's neck, but the young man laughed: "Hurry up." Come on, here—you do it! It’s kind of killing me—”

Tang Minjie didn't do anything.

In the night not far away, the middle-aged soldier had already rushed over. There was no musket here, and he held a bow in his hand.Tang Minjie held the young soldier in front of him with a knife, but the other party struggled violently: "I'm not afraid of death! There's a way to do it! Bastard! Do it——Lu Tou, Qiu Zishu is already dead, and he killed him for cheating." The bastard didn't dare to do it, kill him, kill him—"

Fang Lu held his bow and looked at this side with red eyes: "My two brothers are dead... who are you?"

"Kill him, Lu Tou, before those people come..."

The young soldier struggled fearlessly, Tang Minjie let him go with a sigh.Holding the knife, he looked at Fang Lu on the opposite side and shook his head: "Why did you do such a thing?"

In the sky, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, but he thought, it doesn't matter.He decided to stop here.

The peace of the past six months flashed through his mind, but it quickly became far away. What was more in front of him was the howling wind and snow in the north that smelt of blood, which had been haunting him ever since his sister died. Endless pain.For him, death was a moment long overdue.

Lu Mingfang.I've waited too long, wasting time for nothing...
