Chapter 113: Half a Cigarette (2)

The company commander of the heavy machine gun company heard that he used to be a student, and then he entered the Fuzhou Military Academy after the revolution, which is the second phase of the Fuzhou Military Academy, and this so-called second phase is not the kind of 'crash course for active duty soldiers' that Shi Fengjun wants to go to, but a three-month formal class, and after three months of study, he will be a lieutenant as soon as he graduates, and he will be a platoon commander at the very least, and he will be a captain and company commander in a few months. After ordinary soldiers go to the 'crash course for active duty soldiers', most of them can only serve as deputy platoon and platoon commanders, and if they want to be company commanders, they have to depend on luck and strength, which is completely different from those officers who were born as students.

At present, there are two kinds of training courses at the Fuzhou Military Academy, one is a crash course for active-duty soldiers, which usually selects soldiers with training potential or officers who have been promoted directly from the line of fire from soldiers for one month, and then awards them second lieutenants as officers with the rank of platoon commander. In the formal classes, students are usually recruited, young people with a middle school education or above, or officers on active duty, who systematically study courses related to combat command within three months.

This company commander usually said that he was a personal student of the governor, and a group of officers from the official class of the Fuzhou Military Academy were known as the closest descendants of the governor, but no matter how he said that the person was only nineteen years old, he didn't smoke this cigarette, and he was a fellow villager with Shi Fengjun, and he usually had a good relationship, so he gave the cigarette to Shi Fengjun.

He took out a cigarette from the flattened cigarette case, and when he was about to light it, he saw several members of the heavy machine gun team around him looking at him with curiosity or envy, and immediately tore the cigarette case and took out five or six more cigarettes from it.

"Take one if you smoke it, don't waste my stuff if you can't smoke it!" Shi Fengjun still didn't have any expression when he spoke, but although several of his subordinates had not been with him for a long time, they knew that this person had always had this face, and the machine gun shooter Liu Liu just smiled and took one: "Head, I admire you among so many people, not only do you have binoculars that only officers have, but you can also get cigarettes!" ”

The others didn't care whether they could smoke or not, they all took one, and two of them didn't know how to smoke, and they choked continuously as soon as they took a puff, but these two people still held on, choking and crying while continuing to smoke

Liu Liu skillfully took the cigarette in his mouth and struck a match and lit it, and then took a deep breath, closed his eyes, with an intoxicated expression, and then exhaled slowly, at this time his face was already showing a satisfied expression: "This cigarette is a good thing, I have liked this thing since I won the pack of cigarettes rewarded by the platoon leader!" ”

A person on the side smiled and said: "This cigarette must be so good, why don't you take the money to buy a few packs of smoke!" ”

Liu Liu took a sip and said: "You don't understand this, this cigarette is naturally someone else's smoker more energetically, if you spend your own money to buy it, it will be boring!" ”

Another person said: "You just blow it, who doesn't know that you are a strict wife, you don't have a silver dollar in your pocket all the year round, and you hurriedly remit it to the fierce wife at home as soon as you pay the silver!" ”

Liu Liu said with a straight face: "Who said I was afraid, I let her go." That mother-in-law is really going to make me unhappy, so I'll drive her back to her parents' house after changing her mind! ”

"Huh! Who wouldn't! Someone laughed again.

When Liu Liu heard this, he didn't fight with them, he inhaled by himself, and when he was still sixty percent left, he snuffed out the cigarette, and then took out a small piece of cloth from his pocket and wrapped it carefully, and then put it in his pocket. After putting away this half of the cigarette, Liu Liu also half-squatted and half-lay in the trench like several other people, and then looked up at the blue sky. The weather has been fine these days, there is no rain or humidity, but the sun is not fierce, just like in late autumn, it is refreshing.

Liu Liu was half-lying like this, his eyes open, but he was thinking about his home, and he didn't know what the weather was like at home, if it was as good as the weather here, then Qing'er and his mother Ah Mei and his father and mother would not have to suffer so much, alas, they were soldiers, and they rented so much land at home, and I don't know if they were busy or not. However, since I became a soldier, I have remitted nearly 100 yuan to my family, plus the 20 yuan settling-in allowance given by the army when I left, my family should be able to live well this year, not only can I pay back the money I owe in previous years, but I can also cut a few catties of meat during the New Year's holidays. If you save like this, you won't have to rent so much land in the future, you can buy your own land, and you can also send Qing'er to a new-style school when the time comes.

Bastard, Lao Tzu can be regarded as seeing through, if you don't read and write, you have to suffer a loss, if you were literate, you would have been promoted to sergeant, and then go to Fuzhou Military Academy to take a turn, and you must not bring a shining Venus! Damn, Lao Tzu can't be considered a success in this life, but how can Qing'er send him to a new-style school, the tuition is expensive, and then let him apply for the military school when he studies well in the future, and he will be an officer as soon as he graduates, and he will be a captain and company commander in a few months, and he can even be a battalion commander or something. At that time, who would dare to say that my old Liu family is not a rich family!

Thinking of this, he just smiled, and smiled stupidly!

But when he thought about it, he thought: What if he dies? When the people from the Fuding conscription station went to other towns to publicize and recruit soldiers, Liu Liuyi immediately gave 20 yuan as soon as he heard the words, and the monthly salary was not discounted at 8 yuan, and the food and clothing were all covered in the army. You must know that the monthly income of an ordinary laborer was only three or four yuan, and the monthly salary of eight yuan was enough to make Liu Liu very excited.

Although he knew that being a soldier was a hard job, Liu Liu thought that he would have to earn this military salary if he gave up his surname, otherwise the whole family would have to die of exhaustion if they didn't starve to death. In this way, when his parents and daughter-in-law were crying and shouting against him, Liu Liu gave the twenty yuan settlement fee to his family and followed the people at the recruitment station. Then there is recruit training, and finally because he is clever and was selected to train as a heavy machine gunner, this is a heavy machine gun, I heard that the entire first division is only about a dozen, and there is also the rank of corporal, which is higher than the salary of a second class soldier and a first class, and he was also a candidate when he was selected for the heavy machine gun commander in the follow-up training, but because he was illiterate and brushed down, he was bored for more than a month. Later, he followed those members of the National Socialist Party to learn literacy, although Liu Liu still didn't understand what the National Socialist Party was, but he always figured out one thing, that is: Governor Chen Jingyun gave them clothes to wear, food to eat, and military pay to support their families. In addition, you can also write a family letter with typos, and occasionally there will be a sentence in the family letter, such as: Meng Du Du Da Grace, I Liu Liu can receive military pay to support you. Liu Liu pondered that if I studied for another two or three months, if I wanted to be promoted at that time, the above could not use my illiteracy as an excuse to prevent me from being promoted, right?

After being a soldier for a few years like this, maybe I can be mixed up as a second lieutenant.

But what if you die? The people above will give a pension to the family, and if it counts, even if they die, the family should be able to get a lot of money! Well, those members of the National Socialist Party said that the governor was the most trustworthy, and that he would definitely give a pension, and that he could also give tax exemption to the land planted by his family.

When Liu Liu was thinking about this, a young man came over and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, I heard that you still have half a good product left here, see if you can let my brother and I have a good time!" ”

Liu Liu took a closer look, he was a first-class soldier ammunition player, and he didn't know what his name was, he only knew that everyone called him Heizi, and when Heizi went to carry ammunition before, he missed Shi Fengjun's time when he smoked, Shi Fengjun was a person with a straight face, and that young man didn't have the courage to ask Shi Fengjun for cigarettes.

Liu Liu scolded with a smile: "Go, I have it there, it's all gone!" ”

Heizi smiled: "Brother Liu, isn't this a joke, you only smoke half a cigarette every time, and everyone else knows it!" ”

Liu Liu pretended to be angry: "You young people are bullying me to be honest, aren't you!" ”

Having said that, he carefully took out the cloth bag in his pocket, and then gently lifted it to reveal most of the cigarette.

"Let's say it first, I can only smoke two bites, if I smoke more, I'll fight with you!" Liu Liu commanded very solemnly.

Heizi responded with great joy: "Brother Liu, don't worry, my sunspot is also a person with a mouthful of saliva and a pit, and two mouthfuls are two!" ”

Liu Liu was very reluctant to hand the cigarette to the sunspot, the sunspot happily struck the match, lit it and took a puff with a satisfied expression, and then sucked the rest of the puff under Liu Liu's gaze, Liu Liu saw that the half of the cigarette was getting less and less, and his face was getting thicker and thicker, and then when there was only a third of the half of the cigarette left, he finally couldn't help but reach out and take the cigarette butt that was still one-third from the sunspot's mouth.

Kuroko didn't care, but closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of the smoke invading his lungs, and only exhaled when he couldn't hold his breath.

"Brother Liu, don't say anything else, just rely on the two cigarettes you gave me, if something really happens in the future, I will block the bullet for you!" Kuroko said with a satisfied expression.

But Liu Liu carefully wrapped the remaining one-third of the cigarette and said, "you, who is rare!" ”

I had just wrapped my cigarettes, but I suddenly heard a voice of "Enemy attack, enemy attack!" Shi Fengjun next to him hurriedly took out his binoculars to check the situation, and shouted at the same time: "Ready, 4 o'clock direction, the distance is four hundred, long point shot!" ”

At this time, Liu Liu also quickly got up, and then held the machine gun to aim, and then started a long point of fire in the direction of 4 o'clock, the characteristic clicking sound of the heavy machine gun cut the entire battle line, and at the same time, the other riflemen on the front line also began to shoot, and two minutes later, the cross-arranged heavy machine gun on the other side also began to shoot.

In these two minutes, the Zhejiang army in the distance has been approaching one after another, and the artillery and bullets of the Zhejiang army are constantly flying on the positions of the national army, and in an instant, just like the previous battles, from time to time people are hit by bullets or injured by the explosion of artillery shells.

When the guns were loud, Liu Liu, who was in control of the machine gun, suddenly fell backwards, Shi Fengjun next to him looked down, and saw that Liu Liu's chest had an extra muzzle, and the red and dazzling blood was constantly gushing out, he did not show any sympathy or other looks, but immediately said: "Deputy shooter, take over the post!" ”

The secondary shooter who had been waiting for this situation to occur immediately took Liu Liu's place, and at this time, the sunspot had already pulled Liu Liu aside, and Liu Liu's blood flowed down, staining the ground red like the blood stains left by the soldier he didn't know before.

Heizi looked at Liu Liu's eyes open, panting, didn't cry or shout, just sighed and said, "I originally said that I would block bullets for you, but now I'm afraid it won't work!" ”

This will see Liu Liu's lips moving as if he wanted to say something, and immediately leaned over to listen to what Liu Liu said, then he got up and took a deep breath, and took out a small cloth bag from Liu Liu's pocket, the cloth bag had been stained with blood and turned red, and after the sunspot was opened, it was vaguely visible that a plum blossom was embroidered with red thread on the cloth, and on the side of the plum blossom was the cigarette that only one-third was left.

After the sunspot picked it up, he first put it in his mouth, then lit it with a match and then took it down, and put it on Liu Liu's mouth, only to see Liu Liu take a sip, but after sucking, he coughed gently, wanting to cough but not having the strength to cough.

The flame on the cigarette butt flickered on and off, and slowly, it stopped brightening!
