The strongest rocket soldier

Chapter 48 Blood and Reality

The reconstruction work is long and cannot be completed at once. In the middle, parents of students came to find them, and the rest are relatively remote. After lunch, Ding Xiaojun walked to Wang Yan and said, "I will help you change the medicine."

Now that there are supplies, Ding Xiaojun doesn't need to work hard to catch fish, so he won't be nervous at lunch time. Wang Yan looked at Ding Xiaojun's real eyes and picked up the corners of her trousers.

Ding Xiaojun carefully opened the gauze, looking at the scary wound, Ding Xiaojun felt uncomfortable again: "If it hurts, you have to tell me."

"Hmm!" Maybe it was because of having an outsider, Wang Yan became a lot more shy.

Ding Xiaojun took out povidone iodine for disinfection, and then applied the medicine. Several times in the middle, Wang Yan raised her eyebrows. It must be in pain, but Wang Yanyi really held back and didn't say anything.

Changed Wang Yan’s medicine and rewrapped the gauze. Afterwards, Ding Xiaojun began to change the medicine for himself. Wang Yan watched as Ding Xiaojun rolled up the loose camouflage pants until all the wounds on his thigh were exposed. Ding Xiaojun opened all the bloody gauze. Pour the alcohol directly out of a bottle cap, pour it down from the top of the mouth, and wrap the gauze on the medicine.

During this series of movements, Ding Xiaojun never showed a trace of expression, as if this leg was not his own. Looking at such a simple and rough movement, he was cautious when comparing the medicine to himself. This huge contrast made Wang Yan involuntarily Distressed.

"Are you in pain?" Wang Yan's eyes revealed an unbearable look.

"It doesn't hurt, I'm used to it." Ding Xiaojun wrapped up the gauze and got up to go to work.

Looking at Ding Xiaojun's back, Wang Yan was conflicted: "What kind of person are you?"

……

Ding Xiaojun and Liu Feng were digging the tunnel for the foundation together. At this moment, Liu Feng stopped and lit a cigarette for himself. Ding Xiaojun glanced at Liu Feng who was smoking, and said: "Squad leader Liu Feng, don't you usually smoke? Why? Are you smoking now?"

Liu Feng looked at Ding Xiaojun, took a deep breath, and threw the remaining half of the cigarette on the ground: "Xiaojun, now I am thinking about an important decision. If there is no earthquake, maybe I won't have a trace of it." Depressed, but now, I am depressed."

Ding Xiaojun stopped working, went to get the water bottle and handed it to Liu Feng, "What's the decision? It's so difficult for you to make a decision. Tell me and let me give you advice."

"Xiaojun, you also know that my first class soldier faced the choice of being discharged from the army in half a year."

"What, you're leaving the army, you don't want to continue to be a soldier." Ding Xiaojun also showed surprise.

"Yeah, I'm planning to retire. In half a year, my service period will be up."

"Isn't it good to be a soldier? Why?"

"Ding Xiaojun, let me tell you, when I first joined the army, I was also excited and enthusiastic. For example, it was the first time I held a steel gun in my hand, and it was the first time a child called me the People's Liberation Army uncle, the first live ammunition shooting, the first time One camping training, and many firsts."

"But even though there are so many passionate and exciting things, I still plan to retire. Because all these passionate things are just a momentary thing, and it is over before there is time to recollect it."

Thinking about it now, didn't I sign up for the blood-boiling scenes in various movies and TV shows for the conscription propaganda? But when I entered the army, I found that everything was not as it was shown on TV. There were no chariots, no There are no machine guns, no planes, and no warships. There are only endless cleaning, endless vegetable fields, endless posts, and endless rules and regulations.

Although there are exciting scenes in the army, for example, there are several basketball games between battalions every year, and occasionally a small sports meeting, plus annual assessment, live ammunition shooting, bombing, or camping training can also be counted. Go in, that's all there is, just enough for such a little bit of blood, there won't be every year in the army, and in the rest of the time, it's still stuck in a never-ending cleaning and never-ending cleaning In the vegetable field, there are rules that can never be learned, and posts that can never be stood in the endless loop.

"Ding Xiaojun, you know, I'm bored, I'm really bored, this is not the military camp life I yearn for, what I yearn for is the kind of people who can rush to the top and fight every day in the hail of bullets. The appearance, the kind of flying a fighter plane soaring into the blue sky, and the kind of life standing on a large battleship galloping on the vast sea.”

Mr. Liu Feng and Mr. Lin Lin talked a lot, and of course Ding Xiaojun understood why the conscripts had the highest rate of discharge after the end of the conscripts. It was because there was no blood, no passion, and only the never-ending sanitation and endless vegetable fields. The five kilometers at the end, and all kinds of boring learning.

Ding Xiaojun picked up the broken shovel again, thinking about what Liu Feng said was right, the army is very boring, really boring, if he hadn’t entered the barracks, hadn’t experienced these things, maybe like all ordinary people, he would think that the army is a mystery Yes, just like in various film and television dramas, passionate and passionate.

But there are still many people who choose to stay in the boring military camp. Perhaps, some people are because their hometown is too poor, so they can have a stable job income by staying in the army, and some people are in order to settle for a good job in the future. , Some people simply want to stay in the army.

Ding Xiaojun didn't think about the boring life of the army, nor did he think about how to choose when he reached the end of the year. Ding Xiaojun only thought about the first time he entered the disaster area. The people looked at his team and saw hope in their eyes. Ding Xiaojun thought of the helplessness of kneeling mother begging for help to save her child.

Although the army is bitter and dry, Ding Xiaojun still has blood in his heart. The motherland and the people need us, and this is enough. Li will still choose to fight, bleed, and sweat, just to protect the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, and only for the people of the country to enjoy a peaceful, peaceful and happy life...

"Actually, we are all the same. We are all people who choose to live hard, but we are different because we are Chinese soldiers." Ding Xiaojun felt this way in his heart.

It has been half a year since he joined the army, and Ding Xiaojun has been trying his best to think about how to be a good soldier. Only at this moment, after thinking about it, Ding Xiaojun knows that this is his real growth. Maybe he still has a lot to understand and understand, but As long as you walk on your own, you will definitely understand the four words 'Chinese soldier'.
