Chapter 27 Supplies
There were three bodies lying on the ground.

They are called corpses because they are not moving.

Old Ma stared at the scene with his mouth wide open.

It took him less than ten seconds to stand up, put down his bowl and chopsticks, walk to the door, and lift the curtain.

I thought I would see an exciting physical competition, but all three of them fell to the ground in an instant.

"Xu Sanduo, you take action..."

"The squad leader is fine. He fainted. He will wake up after lying down for a while. His bones and muscles are fine."

Feng Yuxiu walked in, sat on a mat, picked up Lao Ma's noodles and started eating them in big mouthfuls.

Old Ma was worried, so he squatted down and touched everyone's nose one by one.

After realizing he was still breathing, he stood up, his face a little shocked. "In ten seconds, he killed three people. Even though they were just three losers, they were still adults."

The three men were very heavy, and the old horse was so tired that it felt numb and it simply couldn't muster any extra strength to move them. Fortunately, the temperature in late summer was not cold.

Lao Ma was still worried, so he brought three quilts from the dormitory and covered the three people with them.

He rubbed his brows, forced himself to resist the exhaustion, grabbed the rifle and prepared to go on guard.

Every step he took was extremely difficult and slow.

After being decadent for so long, the sudden large amount of heavy labor made his body unable to bear it, and he just vomited a few mouthfuls of acid.

"Squad leader, you go to sleep. I'll stand guard tonight."

After Feng Yuxiu had eaten and drunk his fill, he took the rifle from Lao Ma and walked towards the guard pavilion.

Old Ma looked at Feng Yuxiu's determined back and smiled.

This soldier has built a grave in his heart.

It was dead silent and desolate inside, without even a hint of human touch.

Now, a summer grass has grown on the grave.

"Sanduo, call me in the second half of the night and I will replace you." Lao Ma shouted at the top of his voice.

Feng Yuxiu waved his hand and walked into the guard pavilion.

Lao Ma turned around and walked into the dormitory, cleaned up, put out the remaining fire in the kitchen stove, washed his feet numbly, and climbed onto the bed with difficulty.

Just a few seconds after covering myself with the quilt, I fell into a deep sleep.

There were many mosquitoes in late summer. Feng Yuxiu looked fiercely into the night. His chest rose and fell violently every ten seconds, and a faint white mist escaped from his mouth.

The heat inside his body was extremely terrifying.

In just half an hour, the remaining fatigue in the depths of his eyes gradually faded away.

Nothing happened that night.

There would be no creature seeking death in this wilderness.

Apart from the rats on the kitchen beams, there are also the veterans from Class 5 who guard the pipes.

At four or five in the morning the temperature turned chilly and the three finally woke up.

Li Meng struggled in pain, clutching her chin and groaning, "Damn, it's swollen."

Lao Wei closed his eyes and touched his body, muttering, "Why is the bed so hard today?"

"Wake up, everyone! How come we fell asleep on the floor?" Xue Lin looked around in surprise, clutching the quilt covering him.

"What happened last night? I only remember standing in front of that lonely man, and then everything went dark and I knew nothing." Li Meng said with a grim expression after recalling for a moment.

"A sneak attack! It must be a sneak attack! They shamelessly attacked us!" Old Wei was not convinced and got up and shouted.

"Yes, it's a sneak attack. What kind of man is he if he attacks without any preparation? Where are you? Do it again!"

Xue Lin climbed up and shouted, but suddenly his legs shook and his face turned pale as he sat down on the ground.

"What are you all shouting about?" Old Ma came out wearing a military coat.

"You've embarrassed yourself in the wilderness, go back to sleep!"

The three of them walked in dejectedly, holding the quilt.

Lao Ma looked at the sky and hurried to the guard pavilion.

The board surrounding the station is straight, like a thousand-year-old pine tree.

"Sanduo, I'm so sorry. I said I have to change shifts in the second half of the night and I'm too tired. You should go and have a rest." After saying that, he took the rifle from Feng Yuxiu.

Feng Yuxiu turned around and walked back.

"Good soldiers, good soldiers." Lao Ma nodded with satisfaction.

boom!
The dormitory door was pushed open, and Feng Yuxiu walked to his bed, took off his shoes and climbed over.

Li Meng and the other two were just about to take a nap when they suddenly smelled something.

"Fuck, why does it stink so much?" Li Meng muttered softly.

Old Wei sat up angrily and was about to speak when Xue Lin coughed lightly and pointed to his chin.

Old Wei suddenly stopped talking.

Xue Lin was well prepared. He crumpled up the scraps of manuscript that Li Meng had left under the bed, stuffed them into his nose, and continued to sleep.

Three against one is no match for the other, no matter if it’s a surprise attack or not.

It would be wise not to mess with this lone man.

When it was five o'clock and eight o'clock, Lao Ma blew the whistle.

"Let me tell you, the mission starting today is to build the road. Of course, you promised me last night that you wouldn't quit halfway. I believe you."

Li Meng and the other two stood straight, as if they had found their target at this moment.

Old Ma paused, "You are so decadent that there is nothing left except a little bit of personality. Whoever retreats will have his personality completely dead in my eyes."

"From now on, go find some stones!"

Lao Ma gave everyone a sack.

The road construction began.

After being beaten up by Feng Yuxiu, Li Meng and the other two did not complain at all.

But the three of them just didn't accept it.

Since the group army assessment, the entire regiment and even the company have returned to normal.

It seemed as if it was just an ordinary assessment.

The fifth squad of the grassland of the Red Third Company was also forgotten, and only the road construction made Lao Ma excited.

Even watching TV with snow at night has been squeezed out of my daily routine.

After a quick meal, they dragged their corpse-like bodies onto the bed.

After a week of road construction, the road had been completed by one third.

"Sergeant, there is no meat left. These noodles are no good. I can't handle them." Li Meng squatted on the sand slope and cried, looking at the blisters on her hands caused by stones.

"Yes, squad leader, the nutrition is not enough. Why don't you go to the company to ask for supplies?" Xue Lin was short and lay on the ground spitting acid.

Only Old Wei was in good health, but his eyes looked a little dazed.

"They've all been in decline for so many years, and you can't even continue building roads. Look at Xu Sanduo."

Several people fell silent as they looked at Feng Yuxiu, who was still walking in the distance carrying a sack of stones.

Li Meng burst into tears, pointing at Feng Yuxiu, "Squad Leader, how can we compare to him? He's not even a human being. We've been exhausted for so many days, and he still has the energy to run at night. Huh? Squad Leader, tell me, is he a human being?"

Lao Ma also fell silent.

He stood up and rubbed his lower back, "Okay, I'll go apply to the company headquarters."

"Everyone's been eating less food lately, it's time to improve."

So two days later.

The supply truck stopped three kilometers away from the fifth shift.

"Everyone gather and move the supplies!"

Old Ma roared and shouted.

"Sergeant, wasn't it delivered here? Why do you ask us to move it?" Li Meng was shocked.

Old Ma's face was serious. "It rained heavily the past two days, and the road collapsed. Cars can't get through. We were asked to move it. Get out now! Xue Lin, you stand guard!"
