Chapter 50

On the mountain road going down the mountain, there were four more soldiers in camouflage uniforms behind a team in orange clothes. On the top of the post, a thin woman and a group of children were waving goodbye to the team going down the mountain.

Watching Ding Xiaojun drift away with the team, Wang Yan shed tears unconsciously: "Ding Xiaojun, have a safe trip, I hope you will always remember me, and I hope we will meet again."

"Teacher, why are you crying?" Among the students, a little girl asked looking at Wang Yan's tearful face.

Wang Yan raised her hand to wipe away her tears: "The wind in the mountain pass is a bit strong, and the blowing is uncomfortable. We are going back, and there are still classes to attend."

"Oh." The children turned and walked back to the classroom. Only the little girl who asked Wang Yan was a little puzzled: "The wind is strong, why didn't I feel it? Is it because the teacher is standing high and the wind is blowing?" When you grow up, it must be like this, and there are high places in the textbooks of senior grades."

……

Ding Xiaojun returned to Shuangshi Town with the car. At this time, Shuangshi Town is undergoing post-disaster reconstruction work. The work of the technical battalion is only to arrange the basic facilities in place. The reconstruction of the entire town is very long and belongs to the local government. affairs, not belonging to the army.

After arriving in Shuangshi Town, Ding Xiaojun first went to report, and then invested in the construction of infrastructure. The so-called infrastructure construction is just a temporary hospital, a temporary school, and temporary residences for the townspeople. Most of them are spliced ​​steel structures. After the reconstruction of the town is completed, these facilities still have to be demolished.

The progress of the temporary construction of infrastructure is not slow. Before Ding Xiaojun arrived, most of the work was almost finished. Only two days after Ding Xiaojun arrived in Shuangshi Town, all the infrastructure was in place and the troops were about to leave.

In order not to disturb the people affected by the disaster, the technical battalion commander informed the companies to leave quietly in the early morning. In order not to wake up the people in the disaster area with the sound of the vehicle's engine, all vehicles waited outside Shuangshi Town.

In the early hours of the morning, it started to rain lightly. The class leader Zeng Xiang gently shook Ding Xiaojun awake. Ding Xiaojun got up and started packing quietly. After a few minutes, everyone packed up and lined up to go out of Shuangshi Town.

As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the town, the queue stopped, and we saw that both sides of the avenue leading to the outside of the town entrance were full of victims who voluntarily came to see us off. There are bags, baskets, which contain not very good fruits, eggs and other things.

Suddenly, there was a commotion right in front of the team, and an old woman with a basket rushed into the team, stuffing eggs into the hands of every officer and soldier.

The battalion commander ran over: "Grandma, our army has regulations, and we can't take a stitch from the common people."

The old man stretched out his wrinkled hands, grabbed the battalion commander's arm, looked at the battalion commander's exhausted face, and bit his blunt Mandarin: "Leader, these days, we victims have seen it all. They are all good children. They are not willing to eat, and they share their food with us. They are afraid that we will freeze, so they give us clothes to wear. Now that the disaster is over, the children are leaving. We just hope that these children can , when I left, I no longer endured hunger and cold."

The battalion commander looked at the tearful face of the old man and didn't know how to get in, so he could only turn his head away from looking at the scene below.

"Come on, take it, you are all good kids." Another victim rushed to the team and began to stuff the soldiers with fruit.

"Uncle, this is the fruit we recovered from the ruins of the fruit shop. Although it is already very bad, we are not willing to eat it. We will leave it to the uncle of the People's Liberation Army who rescued us and helped us." The [-]-year-old child handed Ding Xiaojun the fruit that had already been listed.

At this time, Ding Xiaojun had tears in his eyes, and his heart was greatly touched.

"You are all good boys too."

"Uncle, when I grow up, I want to be a soldier, and I want to save many disaster-stricken people like you."

Soon, the victims began to stuff food into the pockets of the soldiers in the team. The rain seemed to be getting heavier. In order to prevent the victims from being exposed to the rain for a longer period of time, the battalion commander could only order the team to evacuate quickly.

The queue passed through the sending crowd, and when it reached the outside of the town, the battalion commander ordered the team to stop, then turned around, and all the soldiers turned back collectively, facing the victims at the entrance of the town.

"Everyone has it, salute!"

In the queue, everyone's neat right hand points to the right eyeliner. In the heavy rain, this scene is so touching.The disaster victims in the small town waved to the comrades in the queue, shouting to go away with tears.

"After the ceremony, turn back. Get ready to board the car."

Soldiers from each company lined up and headed towards the vehicles of their own company. Beside the vehicle, someone had placed a big bag. The soldiers in front took out the food from their pockets and placed them on the bags. , and then boarded the car, the people behind followed the soldiers in front, took out, placed, and boarded the car.

Soon, all the soldiers boarded the car, and the technical battalion commander came to the accompanying policemen and the mayor who were there to maintain law and order, and pulled together the neatly arranged food.

"Comrade mayor, please take these food back and redistribute it to the affected people, please."

"Captain Huang, this is the wishes of the masses. It's not good to send it back like this." The mayor is not easy to take on this tricky job.

"Comrade mayor, the army has regulations for the army, and the masses cannot be treated with needles and threads. This is a tradition left by the older generations of our motherland. It must not be forgotten. Also, although the disaster has passed, the lives of the victims are still very difficult." Difficult, so these things should be kept, this is not what I mean, it is left by all soldiers consciously, and please understand our soldiers, this is their dignity, thank you."

After entering, the technical battalion commander saluted the mayor, the police, and the accompanying government officials, then turned and left.

The vehicle started and started to return towards the barracks. It was raining outside, and the soldiers on the vehicle were filled with enthusiasm.At this time, farewell scenes are also being staged in other places in the disaster area.

In order not to cause the team to disturb the people again, the military vehicles chose to detour directly after passing through every town affected by the disaster. The villages that could not be detoured, the vehicles passed quickly, but they were still voted by enthusiastic villagers. kind of food.

After four hours, the vehicles of the technical battalion finally arrived at the camp area. The battalion commander ordered that the cooking squad be opened, with unlimited meals, all soldiers rested for one day, and began training two days later.

After more than ten days of hard work, the earthquake relief work came to an end. Ding Xiaojun and his comrades returned to calm again and started training day after day, cleaning up the sanitation, and tidying up the vegetable fields. However, the scene of disaster relief was deeply buried in the In the heart of every soldier, this life will be remembered forever.
