1979: My fiancée is a goddess

Chapter 249 After the War
Defensive position in front of the canyon.

"call……"

Cheng Kaiyan carried the injured deputy battalion commander of the third battalion, Hong Jianguo, on his back and walked in the muddy yellow mud with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

He didn't stop until the temporary supply point behind the position appeared in front of him.

Looking up, I saw a small wooden house located in the trench. The house was not big, only more than ten square meters.

The outside is dark blue and is made of wood with bark.

Plastic sheeting is nailed to the roof for waterproofing, and then covered with green moss and turf for camouflage. From a distance, it blends perfectly into the surrounding trees.

"Come here, come here!"

"Have a good rest. Where's Captain Hong?"

"He's carrying it on his back."

When everyone saw Cheng Kaiyan carrying Hong Jianguo over, they immediately gathered around and asked questions at once.

It was a little after two o'clock, and because the fighting had just subsided, the soldiers in the kitchen squad were working overtime to distribute food.

Under the awning at the door, there were several large barrels filled with hot food.

Seeing Cheng Kaiyan and Hong Jianguo, the soldiers passing by consciously made way for them and looked at them with respectful eyes.

After a morning of fierce fighting, the soldiers also learned about the deeds of these two men from the surviving soldiers.

The young man carrying someone on his back is the writer who came here to collect folk songs.

In the morning, I went into the canyon for inspection with Deputy Battalion Commander Hong Jianguo, but unexpectedly we were suddenly attacked by the enemy.

After a whole morning of fighting, this field writer actually survived and even demonstrated extremely high level of marksmanship, single-handedly killing several enemy machine gunners, several artillerymen, and more than twenty other enemy soldiers.

He made great contributions in delaying the enemy's attack.

Cheng Kaiyan stood in front of everyone and could naturally feel the emotions in everyone's eyes.

A day ago, he might have felt proud and honored.

But at this time, Cheng Kaiyan had already become numb and tired after fighting for a whole morning.

There wasn't even a hint of joy of survival in my heart, instead it was full of complexity.

This morning's battle had far exceeded his imagination of what war would be like.

The last second, the little soldier was happily hiding in the cat ear cave and eating dry food.

The next second, he was hit by a shell and turned into a pile of shattered pieces, with hot blood smearing on the faces of those around him.

Bloody, cruel, human life is worthless...

Maybe he shouldn't be here.

Isn’t it good to be a self-righteous literary and artistic worker?

"Captain Hong was shot and is unconscious. You should take him to get treatment."

Cheng Kaiyan sighed deeply, put Hong Jianguo down from behind, and handed him over to the medical soldier who had been waiting for a long time.

It wasn't that he was pretending to be stoic by carrying the injured and unconscious Hong Jianguo on his back, but his mind was still immersed in the war just now.

Until now, I have seen soldiers sitting on the ground, soaked all over, holding lunch boxes in their muddy hands, eating meals and drinking soup, and sitting on the ground talking to their comrades.

Their bodies were cold from being soaked in the rain for a long time, their faces were pale, and their voices were filled with sadness, grief, relief and joy for having survived the disaster...

All kinds of emotions came flooding in, impacting Cheng Kaiyan's five senses.

"do not worry."

The medic quickly took it over and hurriedly carried the stretcher into the house.

Cheng Kaiyan nodded and looked around.

Wang Anyi, Ye Xin, Jiang Zilong and other writers who had been standing in the rain in raincoats for a long time were looking at him with concern, as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.

Cheng Kaiyan felt warm in her heart and said softly, "Everyone, go away. I'm fine. I just got a little injured."

"I'm glad you're okay. Go and have a rest."

"Don't go up there anymore, it's too dangerous."

Ye Xinyu and Jiang Zilong looked at each other, breathed a sigh of relief, and advised.

Cheng Kaiyan nodded, then turned and walked into the house with tired steps.

'Luckily he's okay... but he must be hungry now.'

Wang Anyi didn't say anything. She looked at Cheng Kaiyan's tired back and felt very relieved.

After all, she is a lesbian, and she is very thoughtful.

After seeing Cheng Kaiyan go into the house to rest, she did not follow her in, but turned around and went to queue up for food.

'He has a big appetite, so he should eat more, preferably with meat.'

When Wang Anyi thought of Cheng Kaiyan's appetite, a long-lost smile appeared on her face.

……

inside the house.

Cheng Kaiyan didn't care about the lime and yellow mud on her clothes, pants and face.

He sat down on the bench, leaning back against the wooden wall. The dripping wood felt cold and slippery against his thin, soaked military uniform.

But Cheng Kaiyan did not feel uncomfortable, on the contrary she breathed a long sigh of relief.

This is much better than the cat ear cave in the canyon.

Although he has not returned to the rear, he is still on the front line.

But after escaping from the meat grinder of the canyon, he finally felt relieved.

Like a big rock falling.

He leaned his head back against the wall quietly and closed his eyes for a while.

After a moment, a soft female voice came to my ears:

"Fell asleep?"

"You haven't eaten this morning, so you must be hungry. The chef in the kitchen just steamed some steamed bread. It's still hot."

Cheng Kaiyan opened her eyes and saw a pretty face in front of her. Two pigtails were pressed against her ears by the military cap and were swaying.

It was Wang Anyi.

She was holding two lunch boxes, standing in front of him with her waist bent, her bright and clear eyes looking at him quietly.

The light yellow corn steamed bread exudes a sweet aroma, and the rich fragrance of pork rib soup rushes into the nostrils.

Cheng Kaiyan's appetite was instantly aroused. He hadn't eaten for a long time, and his stomach immediately started to growl.

"Thank you. I'm just hungry."

"You're welcome."

Wang Anyi naturally heard the voice and found it very interesting and down-to-earth.

"Then I won't be polite."

Cheng Kaiyan didn't feel embarrassed. He took it and started to eat it in big bites.

You can eat steamed bread and drink soup at the same time without feeling choked.

Seeing that he was eating with great relish, Wang Anyi smiled slightly, sat aside, propped up her chin, and watched him quietly.

She always felt that although he looked dirty now, he really had a unique charm.

The bloody cheek was cold and the eyes were sharp.

There is a feeling of being stripped of all dross and having a sharp sword drawn from its sheath.

Wang Anyi saw the dirt on his face and several wounds that were bleeding, and subconsciously reached out to wipe his face with a handkerchief.

But the next second, the girl thought of something, and the hand that was tightly holding the white handkerchief stopped in the air.

"what happened?"

"Here's the handkerchief. Wipe it yourself."

Wang Anyi pursed her lips and threw the handkerchief at him.

"Okay, I'll do it myself."

Cheng Kaiyan nodded.

After dinner.

Wang Anyi took the lunch box out to wash it. When she came back, she had a basin of hot water and a set of clean clothes in her hands.

"Thank you Miss Wang for taking care of me. I'll treat you to a meal later."

"What trouble? We are friends who have been through thick and thin together.

Besides, your Xiaoli is not around, so I will help her...

If you want to treat me to a meal, then it’s settled, I want to eat at Quanjude.”

Wang Anyi handed over the wrung-out towel and said with a smile.

"No problem. I'll ask her to treat you to a few more meals later."

Cheng Kaiyan nodded and said, "Just being friends is fine."

He wiped his face clean, and then said casually that he wanted to wipe his body.

"Pooh!"

Wang Anyi's face turned red and she spat softly, not forgetting to close the door before leaving.

……

After drying his body, Cheng Kaiyan changed his clothes, lay down on the bench and fell asleep.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, and even the enemy surprisingly did not launch another attack.

He slept very deeply, perhaps because he was too tired today.

When he woke up again, it was almost dark.

"you're awake?"
