Chapter 91: The Last One
Ge Zhen received the order and immediately rushed to the agency to report.
It was still Lao Li who took the boss to send him, but now it is not winter, it is not a mountain covered by ice and snow, and everywhere is green, blooming with gorgeous Gesang flowers.
"It's good to go, it's good to go, anyway, the outpost will be removed soon, it's better to go now than to go last." Lao Li put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "From the day you came, I knew that you would definitely have to go, because you are different from them, hehe." β
"What's the difference? Actually, it's all the same...... Lao Li, after the outpost is removed, you will go below, buy some cosmetics or something, clean up your face, and then find a daughter-in-law. Ge Zhen smiled: "At such an age, how can you do it without a daughter-in-law?" β
Leaving was about to leave, Ge Zhen tried to make himself relaxed, he didn't want to end up all of them feeling heavy.
But fortunately, the outpost will definitely be removed this year, and the first row and second shift will leave, so Ge Zhen is much better to leave now.
"Who like me is with me? Hehe...... I'm not as young and energetic as you, and after so many years in this outpost, it has turned me into a stuffy pimple, hahaha......"
said so, but Lao Li's eyes still had a strong yearning, he knew what he had been devastated by this place, but he thought that his future life would still be beautiful.
"Lao Li, after the outpost is removed, you can send me a letter and let me know that my brothers are all fine." Ge Zhen looked at the bus stop not far away and said, "I used to regard the second squadron as my home, but now I regard our first row and second squadron as my home...... Wherever I go, I will miss our home, your family. β
"Hehe, just think about it in my heart, remember that we will work in two shifts, and I will be satisfied if I can recall this snowy plateau when I am free, hehehe......" Lao Li smiled and patted Ge Zhen's shoulder: "Go, the bus point is here, you should go, don't delay time." β
Before I knew it, the twenty kilometers had been completed, and it was as fast as a blink of an eye, and it was very different from the long walk when I came.
Ge Zhen nodded, squatted down and hugged the boss's head.
"Boss, I didn't serve you and pee, and I didn't give you meat and bones to eat, little brother, you have to remember me after I'm gone. The next time I come back, don't bite me. β
"Wow!"
The boss screamed twice, stretched out his wet tongue and licked Ge Zhen's face, shaking his tail vigorously.
"Alright, let's go." Ge Zhen got up and walked towards the bus stop with his bag on his back.
"Woohoo! - Woo Woo Woo - "
The boss shouted as he ran after him to the boarding point.
Standing at the bus stop, Ge Zhen put down his bag and stood straight facing Lao Li.
"Salute! βββ
A majestic slogan sounded from his mouth, and a standard salute was dedicated to Elder Li.
Lao Li stood up straight and saluted Ge Zhen in return, which was extremely sacred.
"Squad leader, I'm not allowed to wipe my tears after I'm gone, and when I come back, we'll come to this snowy plateau togetherβ"
"Good!" Lao Li said loudly: "Ge Zhen, I'll wait for you to come back, I know that you are different from others, you will definitely come back!" β
"Let me sing another song-" Ge Zhen's eyes were red, and he sang with a smile: "One summer, the veteran took the recruit up the mountain, and there were snowflakes floating in the middle of the mountain, and the recruit said that it was so cold and breathing was a little short of breath...... Veteran, veteran, how can you stay in this barren mountain and snow ridge for so many years......"
ββ¦β¦β
Ge Zhen got in the car and left, but the singing was still echoing, and Lao Li walked back while wiping his tears, singing about their first row and second shift.
How many soldiers were sent? I don't know, he almost can't remember, but he understands that he still has to send them one by one, until he is the last person left in the outpost, and when all the handovers are completed, he leaves alone with his bag on his back.
Because his squad leader had already gone home, he had to be the one who stayed last, and the one who stayed last was the saddest.
β¦β¦
It didn't take long for the sentry post to be dismantled, and Lao Li began to give people away.
"Ma Weiguo, get in the car, get in the car......" Standing at the bus stop, Lao Li asked Ma Weiguo to get in the car quickly with a smile on his face.
"Squad leader! - Woo woo woo ......" Ma Weiguo was crying, he ran over and hugged Lao Li tightly and said, "Actually, I don't want to leave...... Woowoowoowoooo......oo I want to stay here until the end! Even if the birds in this place don't, even if it is so bitter that people cry every night, but ...... Woowoooo......oo
"Let's go, let's go, hehehe......" Lao Li wiped his tears with his rough hands like a parent: "Those who can stay here for so long are good soldiers." β
"But I want to be with you until the end......"
"I'm your squad leader, and I have to stay last. Get in the car, the car is about to go. β
"Hmmm! Squad leader, I'll watch your ......"
"Huh...... Let's go, let's go, hehehehe......"
ββ¦β¦β
Ma Weiguo pedaled the car with tears, he did not go to the company where the second squad of the first platoon was, in fact, almost everyone went to a different company.
Lao Li walked back with the boss, humming their song as he walked: "One summer, the veteran took the new soldier up the mountain, and snowflakes floated halfway up the mountain......"
Singing and crying, before he was halfway there, he squatted on the ground, his shoulders trembling.
The boss circled around him, sticking out his tongue and licking him from time to time.
"Boss...... They're all gone, and we're the old brothers left...... I don't want to stay last, I want someone to send me away...... I...... Woowoowoooooooo......oo
Lao Li covered his face and cried as much as he could, all his soldiers left, and the outposts of the first platoon and the second squad were completely empty.
A snowflake falls...... Another snowflake falling...... Snowflakes are falling......
It's snowing, summer is over, winter is coming.
In the outpost, Lao Li stared at the empty dormitory in a daze, confirming one bunk by one, he could call out the soldiers who had slept in each bunk.
It was snowing outside, a lot of people were coming outside, and all the handovers were complete.
"Alas...... It's time to go......"
Lao Li sighed deeply, put on his bag, and took the boss to the car and left.
"Woo...... Woohoo......"
The boss who got into the car made a whining sound, jumped out, and ran into the outpost.
"Boss, come back, it's time for us to go!" Lao Li shouted.
But the boss didn't listen to him at all, but sat at the door of the outpost upright, looking at Lao Li in the car.
In desperation, Lao Li got out of the car, hugged the boss and got into the car again.
But the boss jumped down again, ran to the gate of the post and sat there, and looked at him.
"Boss, let's go, don't lose your temper, okay?" Lao Li got out of the car again and wanted to leave with the boss.
But this time the boss refused to leave, just licked his face with a warm tongue, endless nostalgia.
"Squad leader, get in the car." The driver shouted.
"Okay, okay, I'll take the boss with me." Lao Li vigorously carried the boss to the car.
The car started and drove down the hill.
"Woo...... Woohoo......"
The boss let out a whimper, jumped out of the car for the third time, and still ran to the door of the post and sat there.
At this moment, Lao Li understood something, his lips buzzed, tears flowed down his face, and he cried.
"Woo woo woo...... Who said no one sent me? The boss is seeing me off...... Woowoowoooo......oo I'm not the one who stays last, the boss is...... Woowoowoowoo......"
The boss was sending him off, and it was not a person who stayed at the end, but a dog, an old dog who was longer than him.
"Salute! βββ
The squad elder Li let out a hissing roar and raised his hand in salute to the boss who was squatting there to watch him.
The snow is still falling, and it is getting heavier and heavier, and the boss who is squatting at the gate of the outpost has turned white, and he will be the last to guard the outpost, guarding the second shift forever.
