Walking out of the hospital gate, Fugui was still savoring Xin Yi’s heartfelt words.

He thought, maybe everyone came to the special forces with some purpose, just like him, just to come to the special forces to fulfill their dreams and to fulfill their promises to the swallows. However, when they witnessed the high butcher knife raised by the vicious terrorists, when they saw their dear comrades lying in a pool of blood in front of their eyes... At this moment, the blood was surging, the anger of revenge was burning, and the strong gratitude for justice aroused the sacred mission that must be eliminated. Therefore, on the battlefield, they overcome all difficulties with strong will and finally fulfilled the sacred mission of defending the peace of the motherland.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking? Don't be sad about him. This may be the best destination for Xin Yi. After all, he did not lose his life." Liming saw him silent and guessed his thoughts. Then he stuffed the car key to Fugui: "You go to the car to wait for me first, and I'll find someone."

They returned to the car and waited for a long time but didn't see Dawn coming out. Xiaoyu jumped out of the car and said, "It's too hot. You guys wait in the car. I'll wait in the hospital and see if I can meet acquaintances."

Du Lei said with a smile: "What acquaintance can you have here? You can't learn from Liu Long. You can help the nurse clean the ward if you have nothing to do!"

Liu Long punched him hard and said, "Can you talk? Am I free and okay? That's learning from Lei Feng to do good things."

Sateng jumped out of the car and said, "Don't say, there are really acquaintances here. Have you forgotten? The nurses who came to our army are from this hospital. I'll go down to take a look."

Jin Hui and Du Lei jumped down one after another and shouted: "Xiao Yu, wait for us."

Liu Long looked at their backs and said disdainfully: "Did you see it? They all saw the opposite sex without humanity."

Du Shengli joked with him: "I think you're embarrassed to go?"

Liu Long turned his head and looked at Yang Aiguo and said, "How could that be? However, it is easy for these kids to be unaware of them. Why don't I go and see them too? Even if I supervise them." After that, he jumped out of the car and ran away.

After a while, Li Ming returned to the car with a look of loss.

Yang Aiguo asked with concern: "How is it? Have you met Xiao Xu?"

He looked at the hospital gate blankly and sighed, "She has been admitted to the Military Medical University and has already gone to report."

Fugui sighed and said, "It seems that you are really not destined to be together. Have you asked her about her address? Can you still write to her?"

Li Ming was stunned for a while and said helplessly: "I didn't believe in fate before, but now I can't help but believe it anymore. Okay, let's not talk anymore, call them and let's go."

As soon as he left the door, Yang Aiguo hugged Liming and said, "Liming, do you keep your word?"

Fugui drove the car and saw the look of disappointment on Liming's face from the rearview mirror. Liming lazily leaned on the backrest and replied: "If you have something to say, just say it, and if you have farts, please let it go."

Yang Aiguo smiled and said, "Do you remember what you said during the "Sword of Justice" operation? You said you celebrated my birthday and you also asked for a big hotel to celebrate me. You see, it's almost dark now, so we have to eat something, right?"

Li Ming turned around and said, "Have I said it? Well! Fugui Parking, I treat you today, what do you want to eat?"

Du Shengli pointed to the snacks on the side of the road and said, "Just eat here, you can still enjoy the night view. Fugui, find a place to park."

Fugui stopped the car, and Liming jumped down and said, "Today you order whatever you want, but you can only drink a bottle of beer."

It was time for get off work, and there were not many people coming to have dinner. After Fugui and the others sat down, the stall owner greeted him with a smile.

Yang Aiguo said carelessly: "Each person has a bottle of cold beer. If you have anything delicious, just serve. We won't order any dishes."

Liming looked at him dissatisfiedly: "Damn me, right? Are you as generous as you? Sateng, go order food."

After a while, the waiter served a few dishes first. Liu Long took a sip of beer, smashed his mouth and said, "It's so comfortable." After that, he looked at a plate of snails and said, "Is this thing still edible?"

They were so hungry that after eating half full, Liming pointed to the snail and said, "We all eat this, don't waste it."

Liu Long picked up one, saw the black hard shell, looked at it for a long time and didn't know how to eat it, so he had to put it down and said, "I don't like eating this."

Yang Aiguo picked up one and fiddled for a long time, threw it into the plate and looked at Sateng and said, "What dish did you order? I never like to eat this thing. Go and ask if you can go back? If you can go back, you will go back."

Du Lei pointed at them and said with a smile: "I think you don't know how to eat, right? You are pretending."

Fugui took one and bitten it a few times, but couldn't bite it. He turned around and saw that there was no one on the table next to him. He looked at everyone and said, "Can you eat it? Why don't I go and ask the waiter?"

Li Ming stared at him and said, "Don't embarrass you, I'll see, I can't even eat this thing, I don't believe it." After that, he held it in his hand and pinched it hard, but the shell was too hard. He thought about it, picked up a bottle and smashed it a few times, and finally it opened. He smiled proudly and said, "Did you see it? That's how you eat it." After that, he sucked the meat into his mouth, deliberately smacked his lips, pretending to be very delicious.

Fugui said in confusion: "This way of eating is a bit unelegant!" But he couldn't withstand their temptation. Seeing that there was no one around, he rolled up his sleeves and smashed one open. But the sand in his mouth was very shaved, not as delicious as he thought.

When the waiter served them the food, he covered his mouth and smiled, "Comrades in the People's Liberation Army, this is not what he snails are eaten. You have to pick out the meat with toothpicks. By the way, what else do you want?"

The comrades looked at each other, Liu Long spit out the mouth and looked at the waiter and said, "We know, but this way of eating is delicious and nutritious. Don't you know it yet?"

The waiter left with a smile.

Li Ming blushed and said, "Stop talking, everyone eat it quickly, get out after eating. Let me tell you, no one is allowed to tell this when you go back, so as not to make others laugh."

Xin Yi left the army in late autumn with fallen leaves falling.

The bleak autumn wind dances lightly and the sky is slightly cold, and the gray and yellow dust spreads the desolate ground.

Such a season adds a little bit of loneliness and desolation, making them feel even more sad when they part.

On the tall poplar trees beside the wall, a few yellow leaves swayed in the wind for a long time and were reluctant to fall.

Xin Yi walked out of the military camp silently with a cane, and the sound of the wooden cane tapping the ground hitting the reluctance of the resignation.

He looked back and looked at the familiar military camp silently, tears rolling in his eyes. He bit his lower lip tightly and endured it, but the last two lines of tears still rolled down his cheeks, rolling on the land he had fought for many years...

Fugui helped him put the bag in the car, and Yang Aiguo opened the car door for him. Xin Yi stretched out his feet and shrank back, looked at the back mountain affectionately and said slowly: "I want to say goodbye to Liangzi."

With the help of his comrades, he walked to Liangzi's cemetery and hugged Liangzi's tombstone tightly and shed tears like rain. What fell on the dead grass in front of the tomb was not tears, but sincere heart, and deep love.

After a long time, he bent down, took out the paper from his trembling hands and folded it carefully, then took out the lighter, squatted in front of Liangzi's tombstone (because his leg injury had not yet healed completely, Fugui grinned in pain when he saw him squatting down.) Lighted three cigarettes and placed it in front of the monument. He cleaned up the weeds in front of the monument and lit the neatly folded paper. The white paper was burning in the blazing flames.

He looked up at Liangzi's photo, tried hard to squeeze out a smile and said, "Ryozi, I'm leaving the military camp. I'm afraid I will never have a chance to see you again in the future, but I will miss you..." Before he finished speaking, tears fell like rain.

His eyes moved to his comrades with attachment: "I will miss you too, and I will miss this Gobi!"

"Okay, let's go, I'll leave after all. It's been eight years, and I didn't expect that I would leave in the end." He gritted his teeth and stood up, looking at the vast Gobi Desert with infinite attachment.

He turned his head to look at his comrades and said, "I can no longer stay in the military camp now. Although I seem to have lost the result, I won the whole process! Knowing you is really my biggest gain. If there is really a next life, I will definitely come to the special forces again and be your comrades!"

Fugui escaped Xin Yi's gaze and looked at the proudly standing poplar forest.

Yes, although each of them had a different end result, they all won the whole process. They left their youth on this land, and they built a steel Great Wall in the vast Gobi with their flesh and blood.

Walking to the foot of the mountain, Xin Yi hugged his comrades one by one. When he pressed his jaw against Fugui's shoulder, Fugui felt him trembling, and cold tears dripped on his neck. Fugui hugged him tightly, wanting to comfort him, but he couldn't say a few words of encouragement when he was prepared. The words of encouragement that he prepared in his heart were now choked in his throat, allowing the tears of parting to fall on the other's shoulders. Only by hugging each other tightly can we feel emotions that cannot be expressed in words.

The leaves are flying, tears are falling, the tightly held hands, the feeling of reluctance...

At this moment: the silent tears are solemn notes, and the affectionate eyes are the most beautiful lines of poetry.

Xin Yi pushed him away reluctantly and said, "Take care." After that, he put on his military uniform with tears in his eyes. Facing the red flag fluttering in the wind, he solemnly salutes. Although his military uniform had been taken off his collar and epaulettes, the military salute was the most solemn military salute in his life.

He didn't look back, but just curled up in the car with his head down.

The car gradually drifted away and finally disappeared on the horizon, leaving only dust and smoke floating lonely on the vast Gobi Desert...

Fugui looked at the direction of Xin Yi's departure, and the unspeakable bitterness and loneliness hit his heart. The separation of life and death made the iron warrior sad.

He couldn't believe that a soldier silently left his favorite military camp and ended his military career helplessly. Although he had been fighting for many years, he still couldn't accept such a situation.

The military career is also so helpless, just as the green grass must withstand the harsh seasonal changes in this desert. Winter goes and spring comes, and the pace of four seasons changing has never changed. In late autumn, it is a barren area, spring returns to summer solstice, and the desert is green everywhere. But the green in today's eyes is no longer the green color of yesterday.

In order to share the dream of joining the army, comrades from all over the world gathered under the same army flag. The scene of the first meeting was still yesterday. In a blink of an eye, comrades who were as close as compatriots had to leave the barracks with deep attachment.

Looking back at the military, looking closely at the footprints you passed by, you will feel regretful and more relieved.

After years of hard work and years of rain, snow, wind and frost, courage has washed away my tenderness, loyalty has cultivated my passion. The years in the military have made them learn to be strong and patient, and have strengthened their belief that they will win as long as they strive for self-improvement in the face of any difficulties.

Since entering the desolate Gobi Desert, the bright moon and the wind and frost outside the border have trained the steel backbone and iron will of the group of soldiers. They look at the sword with a lamp while drunk, and watch the horns in their dreams. They are in charge of family and country safety, even if they are wrapped in horses and corpses. They are full of grudges and revenge at gunpoint, and they are full of joy!
