Chapter 28: Water and Fire Ruthless

The L Group is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and it is also the largest area of ​​deep forests nearby, and the most complete protection. This can be said that the forest protection team has made great contributions. They not only protect natural disasters, but also have to protect personnel from intentional harm. It can be said that intentional harm is the top priority of the forest protection team. If you don’t believe it, you stand on the top of the mountain to look at other mountains, and it can be said that they are basically bald.

For the mountains, the harm of humans is always greater than that of natural disasters. The forest protection squad is generally not fixed, and the personnel will be changed in about a month, because it is impossible for soldiers to completely abandon their military skills. Here, they are usually sent to the company for mistakes and sent to the labor camp here for labor camps.

Hu Daming, Cheng Jianjun and Fang Tian were sent here. Here they were all three people and divided into three groups, one group was responsible for a mountain. They inspected three times in the morning, midnight and evening every day. Generally, it takes more than an hour to travel, and at least more than three hours back and forth. However, there is no morning exercise, no training, no news, and nothing, you only need to complete your three inspections.

Hu Daming and the others were assigned to Dongshan, which is close to the village where Li Qingshan is located. At the beginning, the three of them sighed that they were blessed in disguise. Here they could see the scenery while breathing fresh air. Well! There are still a lot of fruits at this time, which is really happiness.

There is a military song that sang: "After here for three or two days, everyone says it's fresh. If you stay here for three or two years, what kind of experience should it be..." No matter what happens, there is a fresh period. After this freshness, it will not be so fun.

Hu Daming, Cheng Jianjun and Fang Tian have been patrolling the mountains for a month, and the troops seem to have forgotten them. At this time, the mountains have no green leaves and no fruits. It is conceivable that these three restless people have been surrounded by this mountain that can go down the mountain with their eyes closed. Now they can only stand on the top of the mountain and shout loudly to the troops.

The yellow leaves also mean that the crops in the fields are ripe. The people at the foot of the mountain are busy with autumn harvest and enjoying the joy of a bumper harvest. Because this is a mountainous area, the land area is very small, so don’t expect to be like the plains, with endless farmland. They are all very scattered here, and some may have to walk several miles. In this case, the villagers usually set off early in the morning, bring dry food for noon, and deal with the couple casually until the night, because only in this way can they squeeze out more working time.

The rising sun was bright and bright, and it was obvious that today must be a tiger-like weather like autumn. However, Hu Daming, Cheng Jianjun and Fang Tian swept away the dullness of the past and rushed up the mountain with a scream, because they received news that today will be the last day of their place and they will return to the team from tomorrow. Maybe they came here to say goodbye to the mountain, so this inspection felt particularly serious, and it can be said that they had never been that serious.

It was past two o'clock in the afternoon, and this was the highest temperature of the day. Hu Daming, Cheng Jianjun and Fang Tian came to the mountains again, carefully checking every grass and every tree under the sight, suddenly!

"Orange! Give me the telescope." Fang Tian suddenly said staring at the village at the foot of the mountain.

"What's wrong? It's not that the beauty Yuan is coming to see you, right?" Cheng Jianjun was joking with Comrade Fang Tian while holding a telescope from his marching bag.

"If you don't speak, can you suffocate you to death!" Fang Tian snatched the telescope, and Fang Tian had never reacted like this before.

"What did you find?" Hu Daming frowned when he saw Fang Tian.

"The village seems to be on fire, it seems to be Li Deming's house. Come and take a look!" Fang Tian handed the telescope in his hand to Hu Daming.

"It's his kitchen, maybe he's cooking, right?" Hu Daming looked at it and raised his own question, and returned the telescope to Fang Tian.

"No, there is a child calling for help. Seeing the thick smoke. Beard, hurry up and go back to the army to summon people. I and I go directly over, hurry up, you must know that there is wind now!" Fang Tian quickly assigned the job.

"Okay, you have to pay attention to safety!" Hu Daming had not finished speaking, and the person was gone.

It is easy to go up the mountain and it is difficult to go down the mountain. At this moment, Hu Daming only thought of Fang Tian’s last sentence: There is a child calling for help! Hurry up! There is wind! Hurry up! There is wind!

Hu Daming, who was like a tiger going down the mountain, quickly rushed to the nearest inspection site, and quickly rang the alarm bell, and continued to fight towards the camp without stopping for a second.

Like a gust of wind, all you see is the agile figure. Hu Daming, who is walking through the dense forest, has forgotten the pain at this time. He used to sway branches lightly with the wind, but at this time he is ruthlessly whipping Hu Daming's body.

Five minutes! No! To be precise, it should be four minutes and forty-seven seconds. Hu Daming rushed to the main road of the camp. Hu Daming, who was covered in scars, did not care how the wear-resistant and durable military uniform turned into strips, but ran and shouted: "Hurry up! There is wind! It's fire! There is a child calling for help! Li Deming's house at the foot of the mountain."

Hu Daming did not slow down, but instead rushed to the mountain with his comrades who were ready to rescue at any time when he heard the alarm bell!

The wind was blowing the flames slowly approaching the mountains. The fire-catching kitchen had all four walls falling on three sides. A little boy stood there in the courtyard, staring at the surging fire without moving.

Cheng Jianjun lay straight in the yard, with flames burning his young life on his back. There was also a cry of a child coming from under Cheng Jianjun's body.

At this time, when Hu Daming arrived, the first scene he saw. He tried his best to put out the flames on Cheng Jianjun's body, calling Cheng Jianjun's name. The doctor from the regiment's health team quickly carried Cheng Jianjun onto the stretcher. The child under him was safe and sound, but he kept calling his uncle, and he might have been frightened.

Looking at Cheng Jianjun who was carried away and thinking about his burned back, Hu Daming was even more worried about Fang Tian. He did not put out the fire with his comrades, but was shouting Fang Tian's name loudly. What disappointed him was that until his throat was hoarse, he did not receive a response.

Tears that had never shedded had already covered Hu Daming's cheeks at some point. When he looked up at the collapsed house, he suddenly thought of something.

"Hurry up! You guys hurry up! Fang Tian may be below, Fang Tian is below, you guys hurry up!" Hu Daming shouted indifferently, asking his comrades to speed up the search and rescue.

But, it's too late.

What was revealed was only the body that was unrecognizable and was already burnt. The fire was put out. Now everyone was surrounding Fang Tian's body. Hu Daming sat next to him, without words or crying. Some were just red eyes, and some were just reality that was unacceptable.

He was glorious, and he bravely sacrificed his precious life, but he abandoned everyone and left alone.

The strong Hu Daming fell ill. He had never been sick before, and this time he seemed to have no power to fight back.

"Where is Fang Tian? How is Orange?" The first thing Hu Daming said when he opened his eyes after he had been unconscious for three days was to ask about his two comrades-in-arms' situation.

"Comrade Cheng Jianjun has escaped from the dangerous period, but he has not woken up yet." Comrade instructor picked up one of the good news and said to Hu Daming.

"Where is Fang Tian?" Hu Daming narrowed his eyes and said weakly.

"The ceremony will be held for Comrade Fang Tian soon. He is a hero, our hero! Put it in the body, the political commissar said that he would wait for you to wake up and let you deal with it yourself." The instructor was helpless, and a fire actually destroyed two good soldiers.

"Oh! I get it, let them wait for me, I'll make a call." Hu Daming struggled to get out of bed.

"Are you calling a little girl named Yuan Di? If so, you don't have to go. She's in the auditorium now." The instructor turned around and said to Hu Daming who was about to walk out of the door.

Hu Daming did not ask who told Yuan Di, because except for the three of them, no one knew about Fang Tian and Yuan Di's relationship, so the only reason was that Yuan Di came up the mountain himself.

The facts were the same as Hu Daming thought. Just when Fang Tian had an accident, Yuan Di felt a palpitation and anxiety, as if she had lost the most precious thing in her life. At first, she thought she was tired or sick, but Yuan Di still had palpitations and anxiety after resting, so Yuan Di came to the army. At this time, she forgot that Fang Tian told her not to go to the army to find him easily. If the army leaders saw it, things would be difficult to deal with.

When Yuan Di saw Fang Tian, ​​she seemed to have adhered to all the bad habits of soldiers. At this time, she had no tears, but was just silently staying by Fang Tian's side. Her strong and stubborn eyes made everyone full of worry.

The soldiers' bleeding does not shed tears, but there are ways for him to vent, such as taking a long-distance race of 10,000 meters, finding a good comrade to fight with two people, or finding a place where no one is around to shout out the stuffiness in his chest.

However, Yuan Di's silence and sorrow infected everyone. There were two older squad leaders who tried to persuade Yuan Di to take a break and eat something. But Yuan Di's silent eyes were discouraged.

When Hu Daming came to the auditorium, Yuan Di had not had a grain of rice in about two days and had not been dripping with water. Seeing Hu Daming's arrival, Fang Tian's instructor He Peidong told Hu Daming about Yuan Di's situation, hoping that Hu Daming could find a solution, otherwise, what would have been lost would be more than just an excellent soldier.

"Get up!" Hu Daming walked to Yuan Di, and made Yuan Di stand up with an orderly tone.

Yuan Di heard the familiar voice and finally reacted. She slowly raised her head and glanced at Hu Daming. Her eyes, which had not had any emotional fluctuations, were suddenly filled with crystal tears.

"Hear if you hear it, get up! This is not what he wants. He is a hero, the hero in our hearts. We take him as an example and are proud of him! He is our comrade-in-arms, so we understand him. You are his favorite person. Don't you understand him yet? If he lets him see you like this, he will be uneasy, Yuan Di! Do you want our hero to leave in the end and in the end with concern and worry for you?" Hu Daming kept hitting Yuan Di's heart.

"Wow..." Yuan Di finally cried and threw herself into Hu Daming's arms to vent her pain and sorrow that had been suppressed for two days.

"Okay, you should help me now. Chengzi is still unconscious and Fang Tian's parents are also in a middle-aged state. I'm afraid they can't accept it." Hu Daming was exhausted both physically and mentally at this time.

The fire in autumn is terrifying. Fang Tian and Cheng Jianjun not only saved their two children, but also used all methods to stop the spread of the fire, gaining enough time to wait for the arrival of reinforcements. If they were not for them, the sea of ​​fire would swallow the entire mountain village and flood the entire mountain, and would not give everyone any chance to react.

Fang Tian and Cheng Jianjun's heroic behavior was recognized by the army leaders and also by the people. The military region pursued Comrade Fang Tian as a first-class meritorious official, Comrade Cheng Jianjun as a second-class meritorious official, and Comrade Hu Daming as a third-class meritorious official.

The people at the foot of the mountain erected a monument on the top of the East Mountain for Comrade Fang Tian, ​​with the four big words "People's Heroes" written on it. Old man Li Qingshan personally went to the army to ask the regiment commander for a military device that Comrade Fang Tian had worn. Li Deming also put on a robbery for Comrade Fang Tian, ​​and shed tears of regret in front of the monument. Even his wife, who was unknown to the right and wrong, took two children who survived the disaster to see off our heroes.

Perhaps it was the discovery of conscience, or perhaps it was the sudden awakening that Li Deming and his wife and his children found Hu Daming. They wanted to know the process of the accident at that time.

"Why?" Comrade Hu Daming can be said to have no good feelings for this couple.

"I want to leave a story for the children, a real story." Hu Daming did not expect that he would get such an answer from them, but Hu Daming had no reason to refuse.

"Okay, this is the case... When we arrived, it was like this. I later learned that my comrade Cheng Jianjun, who was hit on the back by a heavy object when he came out with his child. He walked forward for more than ten meters in one breath before fainting on the ground. And my comrade Fang Tian, ​​after saving a child, was killed by the collapsed wall when he returned to put out the fire. Well, that's all, you can leave." Hu Daming said and shed tears again.

"I'm sorry, if we took our children down the field, they wouldn't have stayed at home to play with fire. I'm sorry!" Li Deming bowed to Hu Daming again to apologize.
