Handsome, this trick played by the artillery battalion is even more handsome than the infantry in front of them walking through the training ground with bayonets.

Not to mention the handsome artillery battalion officers, even the battalion commander Zhao Ergou, who looked obscene but had a solemn face at this moment, had an indescribable masculinity in the eyes of many girls.

Men, no matter when, they still have to rely on their talents to eat.

Although Liu Tuanzuo has always thought that he relied on his face. Of course, this somewhat undermines the worldview of the vast majority of people.

Immediately followed by the engineering company, the baggage company, the medical team and other independent regiments and other arms phalanx, and even the warehouse soldiers, cooking soldiers, and veterinarians under the logistics department all came out one by one.

After the shocking infantry phalanx and artillery live-fire performance in front, this group of auxiliary troops may be a group of heroic female nurses and 30 fully armed female soldiers of the medical team.

But what really set off the climax of the parade of the entire independent regiment was the phalanx of the last to enter ---- the phalanx of retired veterans.

After all the officers and soldiers of the active independent regiment have walked, the phalanx that entered the last place is the finale and a symbol of glory, and Liu Lang left this glory to the retired veterans recalled from various villages.

The entire independent regiment also had no objections, leaving this honor to the retired veterans who were disabled by their injuries.

They will always be soldiers of the Independent Regiment, they are part of the Independent Regiment, and they have never changed.

The phalanx, a hundred men, was not as neat as the previous soldiers, although they had worked hard to keep it in order.

However, some are on crutches, some are missing arms, and their physical disabilities make it extremely difficult for them to move in unison.

However, when this phalanx entered, the crowd remained silent, and in the entire training ground, only the footsteps of the veteran phalanx were not particularly neat and the sound of their slightly heavy breathing, which was still a little hard to keep the queue neat.

"Coming to us is a phalanx of veterans, for whom there is no need for introduction, their scars are a testament to their merits. Here, on behalf of the 3,000 soldiers of the Independent Regiment, I would like to send them a word, veterans will not die, only forge ahead. Liu Lang took Zhang Ruhao's white iron tin horn and shouted. All of them, salute. ”

With a "bang", all the soldiers present, whether they were from the independent regiment or not, including Fan Shaozeng and Zhang Yan, all raised their right arms.

Without waiting for the veterans to salute first, the lieutenant generals, major generals, colonels, and lieutenant colonels present 。。。。。。。 When the soldiers arrived, they all saluted the veterans.

"Veterans don't die, only forge ahead." Liu Xueyuan silently whispered a few words, and looked at Liu Lang who was not far away and solemnly saluted the veteran phalanx. said softly: "Sister Yanxue, the future husband you chose is really both civil and military, and he is really envious." ”

Ji Yanxue, who also solemnly raised her right hand and focused her eyes on the veteran phalanx, did not answer, but sighed slightly in her heart. It's a good civil and military pair, but it's too good, but it's also a shortcoming! I have to bother to watch the prison a little bit, no, isn't this also a hit by your Liu University reporter? On the other side of the ocean, there is a foreign girl with long legs and white skin who covets it!

Veterans don't die, they can only forge ahead. Liu Tuanzuo's words are certainly very moving. But what really made the two thousand ordinary people in the audience look at the veteran phalanx with respect was that they were not moving forward in a neat and even staggering way.

Yes, they have a leg missing, an arm is missing, and they are wearing old-fashioned national army uniforms that are somewhat white-washed.

It seems to be hard, but it is still staring at each other, although it is staggering, but it is still holding its head high.

No one would think that this was a gimmick played by disabled veterans specially singled out by the Separate Regiment. Because, in the front row of the crowd, there are more veterans who cannot participate in the parade, they either have no legs, or both arms are gone, or both eyes are blind. The veteran representatives in that phalanx were already veterans who could move freely as much as the independent regiment could choose.

"Salute." The leader of the veteran phalanx, a big black man with a medal of five treasures, unworthy of the rank, and only one left arm flashed with tears in his eyes, and shouted loudly.

At the same time, the big black man raised his left hand and gave a standard national military salute.

The black man, known to most of the officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment, was one of the only 40 people left in the Dare to Die Company, and it was this former mountain bandit named Da Xiong who swore not to retire at the public memorial ceremony of the whole regiment. Unexpectedly, he had already been awarded the fifth-class Baoding Medal and promoted to the rank of lieutenant, but he finally chose to retire and went to Guangyuan Village to serve as an instructor in the escort team.

But the officers and men of the Independent Regiment understood that they did not retreat, not because of glory, but because their brothers were buried here; Retreat, again, not because of retreat, but because there are more of his brothers alive here.

Zhou Shiyu, who was standing at the forefront of the death camp, had always had a calm face, which was like a cold stone, but in his eyes covered by the shadow of the brim of his military hat, tears were faintly visible.

How could he not be sad when he saw his former brother again? It took him three days of hard persuasion before he persuaded the crying tough guy to leave the barracks step by step.

How could he not be sad? There are only five veterans in the veteran team of 100 people, who belong to his death company.

Because, the entire seventeen veterans who retired due to injuries in the Dare to Death Company, twelve of them were completely incapacitated, and they could only sit alone on the sidelines, like the 160 brothers a mile away, unable to enjoy the glory that should have belonged to them.

Although the black man is slightly different from most people who salute with his right hand, and he looks a little awkward, many women's eyes are as twinkling with tears as him.

From his tears, no one doubted the determination of the representatives, and all believed that if the need arose, he would take up the steel spear in the same way as his mighty left hand.

And what made more people cry was the arms of hundreds of arms raised at the same time in the veteran phalanx. Those with the right arm raised their right arm, those without the right arm raised their left arm, those with the right arm but no hand did not hesitate to raise their bare arms and put them on their eyebrows, and two veterans were on crutches with their right hands, but at the moment of hearing the "salute" order, they resolutely threw away the crutches in their hands, and while raising their right hands high, they jumped forward with one leg in the ranks with difficulty.

What kind of spirit is this! What a kind of emotion this is!

Their footsteps were not as loud as those of the infantry, their hands were not as bright as the bayonets and shining steel spears of the infantry before them, and they did not have the all-destroying gods of war like the artillery battalions. However, the raised arms with mutilated arms seem to be more fearsome than steel guns, and the footsteps of one-legged jumping are like a thunderclap in the sky, exploding in people's hearts, making you tremble incomparably and all the cells in your body tremble over it.

Many people have tears on their faces and still don't know it.

Five or six children who were no more than six or seven years old suddenly ran out of the crowd, picked up the two crutches left behind after the phalanx had passed, and chased the phalanx of veterans who were still moving slowly, wanting to send the crutches to the two veterans.

But it wasn't until the big black man shouted, "After the salute," that the two veterans solemnly saluted a few children who were still a little ignorant and took their crutches.

I don't know if it was the retired soldier who took the lead, raised his arms and shouted: "Independent regiment, Wan Sheng." ”

"Independent regiment, Wan Sheng!" All the veterans raised their arms at the same time and chanted.

"Independent regiment, Wan Sheng!" All the officers and men of the separate regiment raised their arms.

"Independent regiment, Wan Sheng!" The people also raised their hands.

。。。。。。。。

Many years later, Liu Xueyuan recorded the five most moving moments of her life, and this scene was recorded by her in the third.

At the end of the article, it was written: I finally couldn't hold back my tears as I watched the two veterans salute with their right hands and leap forward with their remaining left leg, the empty trouser leg of their right leg swaying in the air with the beating wind. I also deeply understood what Liu Lang said---- veterans do not die, only forge ahead." Although their bodies are mutilated, they have never died, and they are still moving forward for our nation, no matter what kind of bullets and bullets lie ahead.

。。。。。。。。。。

ps: I would like to dedicate this chapter to all the retired veterans who participated in the Great Patriotic War and served in the army of our Chinese nation, whether you are old or not, whether you are in the prime of life or not, you were once the backbone of the Chinese nation and the republic, and now, you are still so. You will be remembered by history. You will always be the loveliest people of the Republic.

At the same time, I recommend Changfeng Dashen's new book "Behind the Scenes", which will be on the shelves on Friday, and book lovers who like spy warfare can support it.
