"Platoon leader, this is ours." Tian Xiaoniu put a file bag beside him, "There are odds and ends, the total is 5438 yuan and 7 cents. We can't get out of the compound, and we can't go to the bank to change it. You can find it on the way." Change it to a bank."

"Wu Yun, brothers are here to see you..." Lin Rui's head was still on the ground, suppressing his crying, "You will always be our good brother!" Wu Yun on the tombstone smiled honestly.

The brigade was also silent.He Zhijun stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray with a serious expression on his face. "Wu Yun's deeds, the military region is already sorting out." Geng Hui said in a low voice, "The title of honor will come down soon, and the local government is also planning to erect a monument at the place where Wu Yun died as a permanent memorial." "My soldier has already died. ...has been sacrificed." He Zhijun closed his eyes and said, Geng Hui said: "This is for the living, so that more fighters can learn and commemorate Wuyun." He Zhijun closed his eyes and nodded: "Okay, you can do it Remember, this kind of thing is still for Lei Keming to come forward, this is an opportunity for him to get acquainted with the army. I am about to leave my Spike Brigade..."

"An order?" Geng Hui asked.He Zhijun said: "Next month. To be honest, I really don't want to mention the deputy division, and I don't want to leave here." Geng Hui said: "At this juncture, I will not congratulate you. You are still the business leader of the special brigade, or Come back often." He Zhijun nodded: "I will. I will talk to the old Lei Duo, training should be more intensive and intensive! Similar sacrifices, try to avoid happening! Try to avoid happening..."

"By the way, the Direct Industry Department of the Military Region has informed that these promoted soldiers will go to the General Staff College for short training." Geng Hui said, "Lin Rui doesn't need to go back to the brigade. After he goes to Wu Yun's house, he can report directly to the General Staff College." He Zhijun nodded: "Yes."

The train roared across the ground.Wearing the uniform of a second lieutenant officer, Lin Rui got off the long-distance bus to the grassland with a 91 rucksack on his back. The head of the local armed forces was waiting for him with a horse.He got on his horse and waved the reins.Two horses are galloping across the prairie at dusk.The Minister of Armed Forces said in half-baked Chinese: "The yurt in front is Wuyun's home."

"Did she know that Wu Yun died?" Lin Rui slowed down his mount and asked sadly. "I know." The Minister of Armed Forces said, "We and the Civil Affairs Bureau gave her plaques and things." Lin Rui looked at the dilapidated yurt, feeling sour for a while.Intermittent singing came from the door of the yurt, and an old woman in ragged clothes sat at the door and sang.The Minister of Armed Forces translated: "Son, you are a lamb in the prairie. You sneaked out to graze. The grass is not good. You should come back to eat milk..." Lin Rui couldn't take it anymore, got off his horse and ran over.The old woman stretched out her arms to him, and Lin Rui knelt down in front of her: "Mom, I'm sorry! I didn't take good care of Wu Yun!"

The old woman's sunken eye sockets were dripping with turbid tears, she was stroking Lin Rui's military uniform, muttering in her mouth. "She said that Wu Yun just went out to graze, and will come back to feed her milk." The Minister of Armed Forces translated in a low voice.Lin Rui lowered his head, and tears fell into the grass: "Mom, I am Wu Yun's comrade-in-arms, that is, Wu Yun's brother...I didn't take good care of him, it was my fault...you scold me, beat him I..."

The Minister of Armed Forces translated into Mongolian in a low voice.The old woman stroked Lin Rui's face and muttered. The Minister of Armed Forces translated: "You are Wu Yun's comrade-in-arms. Wu Yun flew out from the grassland. I am relieved to have you with him. You are a good boy. Wu Yun is not sensible. Wu Yun Write me and tell me it's up to you to be an officer."

Lin Rui lowered his head and sobbed: "Mom, it's all my fault, I hate myself!" The old woman sang a song after listening to the translation by the Minister of Armed Forces.The Minister of Armed Forces whispered: "The son is the star in the sky, and the mother is the moon. No matter where you go, where you can see the stars, you can see your son, and where you can see the moon, you can see your mother..." Lin Rui Throwing on the ground: "Mom—"

The yurt in the night, under the oil lamp, Lin Rui sat in the yurt, took out those envelopes and handed them to Wu Yun's mother.Wu Yun's mother opened it, saw that it was money, and pushed it back.Lin Rui stubbornly tucked it into her skirt.

Morning light gradually rises.Wu Yun's mother walked out of the yurt and saw Lin Rui in camouflage uniform chopping firewood.She smiled and brought out a bowl of milk tea, Lin Rui wiped off his sweat and walked over to drink the milk tea.On the endless grassland, Lin Rui rode his horses to herd sheep.Wu Yun's mother stood in front of the yurt and looked into the distance. Lin Rui rode back and dismounted.Wu Yun's mother took him in by the hand and had already prepared a meal for him.Lin Rui sat down, ate mutton with his hands and drank milk tea, but choked and spit it out.Wu Yun's mother laughed, and he laughed too.

night.Lin Rui was sleeping soundly, his rough hands stroking his face.Tears dripped down his face, and Wu Yun's mother stroked Lin Rui's face and muttered.

In the morning, Lin Rui got up and saw Wu Yun's mother brought a Mongolian costume. He changed into the clothes, and Wu Yun's mother mumbled about dressing him.Lin Rui got out of the yurt, quickly mounted his horse, and looked like a young Mongolian boy.Wu Yun's mother looked at his back, smiled and muttered.

dusk.Lin Rui was practicing boxing, while Wu Yun's mother was sitting in front of the yurt watching.Several young men rode over and invited Lin Rui to wrestle.Lin Rui wrestled with the Mongolian boy, imitating Mongolian wrestling movements, while Wu Yun's mother smiled lovingly and watched.night.Lin Rui handed his photo to Wu Yun's mother, and Wu Yun's mother carefully hung his photo and Wu Yun's photo together.Morning.After changing into his military uniform, Lin Rui got on his horse with his rucksack on his back, and rode for a while with the Minister of Armed Forces.Lin Rui reined in his horse and turned around, seeing Wu Yun's mother still waving.He raised his right hand, gave a military salute on the horse, gritted his teeth and rode off with the Minister of Armed Forces.

station.The Minister of Armed Forces sent Lin Rui to the car, and Lin Rui told him: "Please go and see her more, I will send you money, and you can write to me or call me if you need anything. If she is sick and needs money, you can talk to her immediately." "The Minister of Armed Forces nodded: "Don't worry, we also have policies to take care of it."

The car started, and Lin Rui opened the rucksack to get the toiletries in the sleeper car.When he touched it inside, his expression changed.His right hand slowly took out, it was a small package wrapped in cloth.He opened it, and inside were those envelopes containing money.Lin Rui threw himself on the window, looking at the prairie passing by outside: "Mom—" the train roared past on the prairie.

provincial capital.Lin Rui, carrying a large rucksack, got out of the car, found a public phone, and dialed the number: "I am Lin Rui, and I am the political commissar of the brigade. I am Lin Rui. Wu Yun's mother refused to ask for the money, even the pension. They don’t even want it...Okay, I’ll send it to their Armed Forces, and you can call them.”

Lin Rui, who came out of the post office, got on the bus with his large rucksack placed between his legs.He looked out of the window in a daze, when an old woman came up, Lin Rui hurriedly gave up his seat.The old woman thanked her, Lin Rui looked at her wrinkled face and nose sore, and turned away.His expression is sad and expectant.The bus stopped at the gate of the University of Finance and Economics, and Lin Rui got off excitedly.He put on a hat with a big rucksack on his back, sorted out his military uniform, and prepared to enter the campus.He saw Tan Min running out with a smile at a glance, he smiled too, and hurried over, but found that Tan Min was not smiling in his direction, he watched Tan Min running past the crowd in doubt.A Bluebird was parked on the side of the road, and a man stood outside holding roses.Tan Min excitedly ran over and threw himself into the arms of the man.Lin Rui took a closer look - Yue Long!He strode over and the car had already driven away.Lin Rui's face was full of disbelief, he took a car and followed.In the car, he looked at the roses in the blue bird car in front of him, and the back of Tan Min leaning on Yue Long's shoulder, his eyes widened.

An elegant western restaurant.Wearing suits, Yue Long and Tan Min sat affectionately facing each other, eating western food and drinking wine.Tan Min is even more beautiful, with long hair and shawls, and watery eyes, and she is often amused by Yue Long.Lin Rui, who was wearing the uniform of a second lieutenant officer, was carrying a large rucksack and watched them walk into the restaurant numbly.

"Sir, how many are you?" the waiter asked.Lin Rui said, "I'm looking for someone." "Excuse me, who are you looking for?" The waiter looked at his military uniform and old rucksack.Lin Rui glanced at him, the sharpness in his eyes made him terrified, and the waiter couldn't help but back away.Yue Long was sitting facing the door, talking to Tan Min.Tan Min was amused, and Yue Long spoke happily.Lin Rui walked over slowly, stood not far from them and watched, watching.Yue Long felt that someone was watching him, turned his face, and said pleasantly: "Lin Rui! When did you come?"

Lin Rui didn't look at Yue Long who came over and stretched out his hand, but only looked at Tan Min.Tan Min's face turned pale, and he stood up in surprise: "Lin Rui..."

"Tan Min. I always hoped that what I saw was not you." Lin Rui's lips moved.Yue Long said: "Lin Rui, you have seen it all. I, Yue Long, am not trying to pry your girlfriend, we... are sincere..." Lin Rui looked at Yue Long clenched his fists, with a cold look in his eyes.Yue Long said: "Lin Rui, we can sit down and talk. If you fight with me, you can't take advantage."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Lin Rui's mouth.Yue Long said: "What era is it now, Lin Rui? Do you think we were still fighting and killing at Guangming Bridge when we were young? If you touch me, the police will arrest you immediately. I am now a member of the District CPPCC..."

"Can a hooligan be a member of the CPPCC?" Lin Rui sneered.Yue Long said calmly: "Lin Rui, I'm not hiding the truth from others, I'm going to the underworld. Everyone around me has guys, if you move, this place will be lively."

Out of the corner of Lin Rui's eye, he saw a few young men standing up from different places nearby with their hands in their pockets. "Is it worth it?" Yue Long smiled wryly, "You are an officer of the People's Liberation Army, why? Lin Rui, I admire you as a man, so we can sit down and talk. If it were someone else, I wouldn't talk like this." "Yue Long , Tan Min is a good girl." Lin Rui said, "Don't take her to the underworld!" "I can't spend my whole life in the underworld." Yue Long said earnestly, "I made a few big sums of money last year, and I really made a lot of money. That's enough, I'm not greedy, I'm already on the transition. Lin Rui, trust me, I'll treat Tan Min well." "Do you think you've washed it clean? Your money is covered with blood!" Lin Rui said.Yue Long said: "You should believe in my Yue Long's ability. This store is mine, and you can't get any advantage if you do it here." "I tell you, Yue Long!" I'm afraid of you, you know what kind of temper I, Lin Rui, have! With your shabby store, these shabby people, and these shabby shotguns, I don't think it's a big deal in my eyes! I won't fight with you today. I don't want to hurt Tan Min, she is still a student!" He turned to Tan Min: "Tan Min, follow me back to school!"

Tan Min looked at Lin Rui and said in fear, "No, no!"

"I won't hit you!" Lin Rui said anxiously, "You come with me, you can't stay in this place!" "Lin Rui, Lin Rui, I beg you, I... I didn't do it on purpose, I was sincere with him It's..." Tan Min said. "You have to see who you are with!" Lin Rui raised his voice, "Can you talk to the underworld?!" - The surrounding diners all got up and looked at this side, Yue Long waved: "Inventory, close the door." Diners They all went out, and Yue Long's men closed the door.A dozen young men stood around the restaurant with their hands in their pockets or holding iron bars.Lin Rui pulled Tan Min back: "You come with me!" "I don't—" Tan Min broke away from him, "He said he would change his career!" Lin Rui looked at Tan Min, his heart was broken.

"Lin Rui, it's not about whether you can take people away, but whether you can stand up and go out!" Yue Long's eyes showed a fierce light, "I admire you for being a man, but don't bully others too much! Tan Min It's my woman!"

Lin Rui looked at Tan Min: "Follow me." Tan Min hid behind the table: "No!" "I'm going out now, you follow me and go out. If you don't follow me, you may never get out !” Lin Rui said with tears in his eyes.Yue Long sneered and asked, "Can you go out by yourself?" "Yue Long, I don't have as much money as you." Lin Rui nodded, "I don't have as much power as you! But I tell you—die at my hands There are more people than you have combined! If you want to try, come here! I am an active soldier, and if something happens, I will be dealt with by a court-martial; but don’t forget, I have comrades-in-arms! You know I'm from the special forces, so you should know how vicious my methods are!" Lin Rui slapped the piano in the hall, and the piano's legs broke with a bang, and the parts were scattered all over the floor. Huge cracked handprints.Everyone takes a step back.

"I'm going out now. If Tan Min wants to follow, follow me. If you dare to stop us, you, Yue Long, will have nightmares when you go to the ends of the earth!" Lin Rui strode towards the door, no one dared to move him.Lin Rui kicked open the door and went out, standing outside, Tan Min did not follow.Lin Rui's eyes darkened, and his lips moved: "Why did this happen? Did I change, or did society change?"
