Chapter 118: Speculation
Yuan Fang was silent for a moment, and was about to speak, when Xiao Lu, who was stained with blood stains on his robe, came out with red eyes, plunged into Li Chunxiang's arms, and whimpered: "Sister Chunxiang, Xiaomei, Xiaomei, she is gone." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" After saying that, I cried out with a wow. Li Chunxiang had tears in her eyes and hugged Xiaolu tightly, but she couldn't say anything comforting.
Yuan Fang and Yang Xing glanced at each other, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable, and they didn't know how to persuade them, so they fell silent.
After a long time, Xiao Lu's mood recovered slightly, and she stopped crying, Yuan Fang patted Xiao Lu's weak shoulder: "Xiao Lu, as a doctor, you must learn to control your emotions." ”
Xiao Lu has always regarded Yuan Fang as a teacher-like big brother, sobbing and nodded: "I know, but it is, I just can't do it." Yuan Fang smiled bitterly, saying so, but who can do it, even he himself can't do it.
Taking a deep breath, Yuan Fang asked, "How is General Xia now?" Her body hadn't recovered yet, and she couldn't be stimulated too much. ”
Li Chunxiang shook his head and said, "The general is in a very bad mood. ”
Yuan Fang is now very dazed and confused, he is just a big-headed soldier who knows a little medical skills, why are there so many things, these things are not something he can help with, let alone a big-headed soldier who should be concerned, why do you have to come over and ask around, there is nothing to do: "Xiaolu, take care of your general, I'll go back first." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the station without looking back.
Looking at Yuan Fang's unrelenting back, Xiao Lu asked blankly, "Yang Xing, what's wrong with Brother Yuan?" ”
Yang Xing was also inexplicable about this, and said casually: "Maybe it's too sad, I'll go back too, and I'll go to the forward camp to find us if there's anything." ”
Xiao Lu nodded, and watched the two walk away: "Sister Chunxiang, Brother Yuan seems to be very sad, he is really a good person." Li Chunxiang nodded, and Xiaolu turned back.
On the way, Yang Xing asked with some suspicion: "Boss, you really don't have any thoughts about Ma Lan?" ”
Yuan Fang looked at Yang Xing in surprise: "Why do you keep saying that I am interested in Ma Lan?" Yang Xing spread his hands and said: "Just now you heard that Ma Lan and the others came back, so you hurriedly ran over, and just now you heard that Ma Lan was fine, so you came back, isn't it obvious." ”
Yuan Fang was stunned, but he didn't expect his reaction to make Yang Xing, the kid, misunderstood, and emphasized again: "I said haggis, don't talk nonsense, no, the free and pure friendship between me and Ma Lan is nothing else." ”
Yang Xing was dissatisfied and said: "Boss, don't call me haggis, can't I say it?" ”
Yuan Fang smiled: "I have decided, I will call you a nickname from today onwards." Haggis, haggis. ”
Yang Xing gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I also call you nicknames, Erfang, Ape, and Edamame." ”
Yuan Fang's head was full of black lines, and he said angrily: "Call me doctor." Yang Xing pouted.
The pressure has been too great these days, and everyone has nothing to do when they get together, so they simply nickname each other, such as Yang Xing, who said that this kid was a bit of scum, so he called him sheep dregs, and later became haggis when he screamed.
What about Yuan Fang, because the name has a fang, a bit of a woman's meaning, some people propose to call him Xiaofang, and some people think that Yuan Fang's figure is thin, a bit like a monkey, and propose to call it an ape, and some people propose to call him edamame, because when it is convenient, I see that he is a bit like edamame, but I don't know if it is because it is small or because there is too much hair.
Yuan Fang was quite dissatisfied with these three nicknames, and proposed that everyone call themselves doctors, but there was no result in the quarrel that day, and then everyone decided to discuss the decision next time.
There is no way, these rugged men really lack imagination, and their nicknames are not very level, but they are quite pleasant to call.
There are other people in the team, such as the captain Qiao Dazhuang, nickname, or abbreviation, just called Da Zhuang or captain, no way, people are captains, they have to save some face, and Fang Mazi and Tong Dacauld, these two goods have long had nicknames, and then there is Cao Ping, Yuan Fang originally wanted to call him Bao to inquire, but later felt that this name was really not creative, and it was changed to a broken mouth, which is also appropriate.
Several other people were not spared, according to their physical appearance and personality characteristics, their nicknames were, pig liver (emaciated, like a bamboo pole, pig liver is purely homophonic), large intestine (named Chang Guang, because of his tall stature, known as Da Chang), pickles (black and not a few, round body, similar to pickle pimples). Cotton (this person has a gentle personality and speaks softly), cauliflower (this person's name is Tang Cai, which is purely a homophonic nickname) Yellow Bird (this person's surname is Huang, and he always likes to take advantage, a bit like the meaning of Yellow Bird in the back, so he is called Yellow Bird).
Da Zhuang, Yuan Fang, Yang Xing, Mazi, Cauldron, Broken Mouth, Pork Liver, Large Intestine, Pickles, Cotton, Cauliflower, Yellow Bird, these twelve people are all of Yuan Fang's team.
A few words of laughter, the previous depression has been diluted a lot, but the resurgence after calming down makes people even more uncomfortable. Yuan Fang sighed and said, "Alas, I didn't expect that so many people would die in just one mission. ”
Speaking of this topic, the look in Yang Xing's eyes gradually receded, replaced by sadness that was difficult to hide: "Boss, I still remember the appearance of Wan Chunya on the day they set off, but I didn't expect that only a few days have passed, and I will never see them again." Boss, you seem to be a little wrong just now, what's wrong? ”
Speaking of this, Yuan Fang shook his head cautiously: "I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't say what's wrong, let's take a look." ”
Yang Xing asked: "What's wrong?" ”
Yang Xing was the best brother, and Yuan Fang had nothing to hide, so he lowered his voice and said, "Think about it, why did the empire send us so many recruits over?" How could you completely hand over such an important place as Dingbian and Guzhong to us rookies? The reinforcements that were said to have been promised have not moved so far, and don't you think there is something strange about Ma Lan and the others being ambushed? ”
Yang Xing was not stupid, he thought about it for a moment and said in horror: "Boss, are you saying that the above asked us to send us to death?" ”
Yuan Fang was shocked, hurriedly covered Yang Xing's mouth, looked around, and did not attract the attention of others, then he breathed a sigh of relief: "Can you kid be quieter, if this kind of thing is heard, we will both be unlucky." ”
Yang Xing nodded and bowed to accompany him, lowered his voice and said, "No, boss, why did the empire let us send us to death?" If we lose the battle, it won't do them any good, right? ”
Yuan Fang was also puzzled by this, shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands and said: "I don't understand either, maybe I'm too careful, who knows, okay, let's talk about this matter, don't talk nonsense when you go back." ”
Yang Xing nodded: "I know, don't worry, boss." ”
When Yuan Fang and Yang Xing went back, the others were gathered around to listen to Cao Ping, that is, what Broken Mouth said, Yuan Fang and Yang Xing squeezed a seat and sat down, and after listening for a while, they realized that Broken Mouth found his fellow countryman as a herald, and found that there seemed to be no movement on the county side, and the battle on the side of Guzhong City was fierce, and they didn't hear that there were reinforcements or anything, and everyone was discussing this matter.
When Yuan Fang learned that there were no reinforcements, his heart sank, and all kinds of signs confirmed his conjecture little by little, but what was this for?
For the next few days, the invading army outside the city remained silent, and there was no movement except for a small group of people going out every day.
The enemy did not act, and the recruits were also happy to be idle, and while they gathered together every day to do nothing, they were very concerned about the battle situation in Guzhong County.
Since the enemy troops outside the city were stationed, they sent a lot of scouts to wander around the perimeter to ambush and clean up the messengers and heralds, resulting in the loss of contact between Dingbian City and Guzhong City, and the only way to get the news there was to turn around the county town.
On this day, Broken Mouth went out to inquire about the news and came back, but his face was not very good-looking, because his herald fellow was injured and was shot by an enemy scout, although his life was not in danger, but it was impossible to go out again recently. Moreover, Broken Mouth also brought back a very bad news, his fellow villagers heard that the battle situation in Guzhong County was quite tragic in the county seat, and it was estimated that he would not be able to hold out for a few days, but the reinforcements from the county town were delayed.
In the past few days, Yuan Fang has tried his best not to think about his unfounded conjectures, but he really can't turn a blind eye to this news.
Yang Xing stabbed Yuan Fang and whispered, "Boss, it seems that your guess is correct. Yuan Fang shook his head slightly, interrupting the topic.
Qiao Dazhuang glanced at Yuan Fang and Yang Xing with a sad face: "What are you two muttering?" What's sneaky, by the way, apes, haggis, what's going on with you? ”
This topic was obviously more attractive, and even the spitting mouth stopped foaming and looked at Yuan Fang and Yang Xing expectantly.
Speaking of this, Yuan Fang felt a burst of angina, and his eyes were full of sadness, exhaustion and loss: "Captain, let me emphasize one last time, they are not my friends, they are friends, they are comrades-in-arms, and if you have to call me a nickname, I want you to call me a doctor." After saying that, he got up angrily and left.
Everyone was stunned, and after a while, Qiao Dazhuang asked Yang Xing: "Haggis, what's wrong with him?" Irritated? ”
Yang Xing looked at Yuan Fang's lonely and lonely back, sighed and said: "Alas, the female soldiers have suffered heavy losses, and only fifty or sixty of our three hundred female horsemen from Nanzhou have returned, the boss is a sentimental and extremely friendly person, of course he is in a bad mood." ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and they cried out, "So miserable? ”
Yang Xing gave him a blank look: "Didn't you see them come back with your own eyes?" ”
Broken mouth scratched his head in embarrassment: "I, I just heard about it." Everyone raised their middle fingers in unison, and they swore that they had seen it with their own eyes.
Looking at Yuan Fang's tent and silent for a moment, Qiao Dazhuang said in a deep voice with no doubt: "I have decided as the captain that everyone will call Yuan Fang's kid a doctor in the future." ”
Fang Mazi was puzzled and asked, "Why?" Haven't we discussed it yet? I think the nickname ape is very good. ”
