Centennial Family, Rising From Hong Kong Island

At noon, Li Zhendong sat on the edge of the field and smoked a cigarette. He could not see any fluctuations in his young eyes, and he completely lost the passion and activity he had in the army and on the battlefield.

A year ago, he returned home after retiring from the army, picked up the hoe again, and started the life that his ancestors had lived for generations.

He asked more than once, is he going to live like this all his life?

Looking at Tian Jian's father's tired and bent back, and his eldest brother's vicissitudes of face that were already wrinkled when he was less than thirty years old!

He seemed to see his own future.

Not reconciled!

But so what?

After smoking a cigarette, he stamped the end of the cigarette on the ground and extinguished it, picked up the agricultural tools again and walked into the field.

But not long after, he suddenly heard someone calling his name not far away.

"Dongzi, someone is looking for you!"

It turned out to be the second uncle in the village, and there was another person standing beside him.

He is quite tall and strong, and he is dressed in a foreign style. He should be from a big city. Why did he find himself?

And it seems a little familiar!

Walking in slowly, the face became clearer and clearer, and suddenly, Li Zhendong's face brightened.

"Squad leader!"

After recognizing Su Shaoze, Li Zhendong ran over excitedly.

"Squad leader, why are you here? And you~ You have changed so much, I can hardly recognize you!"

"Dongzi, let me come to see you and bring you something!"

Su Shaoze said with a laugh, his fist hit Li Zhendong's chest, bouncing.

"Go, let's talk when we go home!"

...

Li Zhendong's house is very simple, with only a few wooden houses. He lives with his parents on one side, and his elder brother's family on the other side.

Two of his nephews and a niece rushed over, their eyes fixed on the bag of things that Su Shaoze put on the table.

It was some food and food that Su Shaoze bought from Hong Kong Island before he came back.

There are also two watches for Li Zhendong's father and elder brother. At this time, watches are high-end goods, not cheap, but they are nothing to Su Shaoze.

After all, you can't come empty-handed!

It doesn't matter if Li Zhendong is alone, but he still has his parents and family!

"Come on, come here, don't be shy, take whatever you want, it's all for you!"

Seeing the three little guys standing far away, Su Shaoze called them over, took out the toffee biscuit from his bag, and stuffed it to them.

"Thank you uncle!"

The three children took it timidly, and then ran out shouting happily.

"Squad leader, what are you?"

Su Shaoze's generous appearance made Li Zhendong very uncomfortable, and he felt quite at a loss.

"I just came back from Hong Kong Island!"

Su Shaoze divided the cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and said softly.

"ah?"

...

Soon, Su Shaoze told Li Zhendong everything. Like Hou Weidong, Li Zhendong decided to follow Su Shaoze without much consideration.

He was afraid that if he continued to stay here, he would become as numb as his father and elder brother, lose his sharpness, and would nod and bow when he saw a small official with a big fart.

He is leaving!

Hong Kong Island is a fascinating place!

"Okay, you settle down at home first, and then go to Guangzhou to meet Hou Zi and Lao Huo. I have to find other people."

"Great, Houzi and Lao Huo are here, who else will go?"

"I plan to go find Da Zhuang, Lao Pao and Hua Zi again!"

"I haven't seen them for a long time, I really miss them! I really hope that the former brothers can get back together again." Li Zhendong said with nostalgia.

"Yes, many brothers will come back!"

...

Lao Pao is a reconnaissance veteran with rich experience and bravery in combat. He has killed more than ten enemies with his own hands.

However, during a battle, an incendiary bomb exploded near him, and the flames instantly swept his whole body.

It was Su Shaoze who dragged him back despite the rain of bullets, and put out the flames with dirt.

But his body was burned extensively, and his clothes were connected to his flesh. Doctors in the army said that his chance of surviving was slim.

Never thought about it, but in the end he persevered tenaciously.

Because of his injuries, he was discharged from the army and returned to his hometown before the end of the war.

Because he is a fighting hero, the local government arranged a job for him after returning to his hometown.

But he was not happy, not only because he had to endure physical pain every day, but also because he had to face the strange eyes of the people around him.

After all, the skin on half of his face was burned away, like a ghost, and children would be scared to cry when they saw it.

No one talks to him, no one visits him, and no one introduces him to this ugly bastard.

The only thing that accompanies him every day is loneliness!

On this day, when he came home from get off work, he was about to open the door with his head down, trying not to let anyone see his face.

But looking away from the corner of the eye, he suddenly found a person standing on the street not far away, looking at him.

Looking back, Lao Pao was stunned.

"Ban, class~!"

His body trembled slightly, his parched mouth opened, his voice was hoarse but he couldn't yell out, and his eyes gradually became moist.

...

Lao Pao cried very sadly, the tough man was like a child, and wanted to cry out all the loneliness and grievances of the past two years.

Su Shaoze's eyes were also red, he didn't speak, just kept smoking.

It wasn't until dark that the two calmed down.

"I came this time to take you to Hong Kong Island!"

"Now that medical technology is so advanced, I have already asked, your situation can be recovered through several surgeries."

"Really, really? Can I return to my original appearance?" Old Pao said in a trembling voice.

"It can recover, but it's definitely not as handsome as you used to be!" Su Shaoze comforted with a light smile.

Lao Pao was not disappointed, and still tremblingly said to himself: "I don't care about being handsome or not, I just want to be a normal person."

"You don't have to bear the strange gazes from the people around you, and you don't have to live with your head down every day, just be ordinary!"

Hearing Lao Pao's words, Su Shaoze felt even more sad. He didn't know what to say, so he could only pat him on the shoulder.

"everything will get better!"

Chapter 24 Shocking! Mi ammunition!

Back then, in Su Shaoze's class, there were eleven people with him, but two people died in the battle.

So in the next few days, Su Shaoze specially went to see the families of the two sacrificed comrades-in-arms, and left them a sum of money before leaving.

Even though they could no longer follow Su Shaoze, Su Shaoze still wanted to take good care of their family as much as possible.

Guangzhou!

When Su Shaoze got off the coach, he immediately saw Huo Ting'an and Hou Weidong not far away, as well as Li Zhendong and Lao Pao who had arrived in Guangzhou ahead of schedule.

There are four other people beside them, all comrades-in-arms who used to be in their same class.

"Squad leader!"

"Squad leader!"

All the people gathered together seemed to be in high spirits.

"Big Zhuang, Huazi, Tank, Big Dog, haha!"

Su Shaoze punched those four guys a few times, and smiled happily.

These four were also former Su Shaoze's subordinates, Miao Zhengzhuang, Zhang Lihua, Sun Mingyong and Gou Wenjie.

Add Lao Pao, Hou Weidong, Li Zhendong, Huo Ting'an, and two comrades who died, and they are all in one group.

Da Zhuang, as his name suggests, is tall and strong, looks a little simple and honest, some people will be deceived by his appearance, but he is also a ruthless man.

How can you not be ruthless in the reconnaissance company?

For future generations, this is the special forces! Be proficient in everything!

And Zhang Lihua is very handsome. From Su Shaoze's point of view, among his brothers, only his appearance can compare with his own, but he is still slightly worse than himself.

There is nothing to say about the tank and the big dog. The standard soldier looks like a short cut, with a straight waist and chest, and is very energetic.

These four people were found by Huo Ting'an and Hou Weidong respectively.

The moment they heard Huo Ting'an and the two of them explain their intentions, they decided to continue working with Su Shaoze!

As former scouts, they have also experienced fierce battles. Like other comrades in arms, they are somewhat traumatized in their hearts.

Leaving the army suddenly felt very uncomfortable and out of tune with the people around.

Now I have the opportunity to continue working with my former brothers, and I can also go to that prosperous place on Hong Kong Island to make a lot of money.

Of course the four of them would!

Seeing so many young men gathered together, the surrounding passengers waited and watched, but after realizing that they were a group of soldiers, everyone smiled knowingly.

Not long after the Vietnam War, the folk atmosphere is still very strong. Everyone welcomes these soldiers. They all know that they have shed blood for the motherland. Some people even salute Su Shaoze and them!

In the evening, everyone drank and chatted together, each talking about his own situation, talking about what happened in the army back then, and remembering the few comrades who died.

Sometimes crying bitterly, sometimes laughing.

The next night, Su Shaoze arranged for them to take a stowaway boat to Hong Kong Island, while he stayed behind.

He traveled west by car, went to Guangxi Province, and then entered South Vietnam. He was going to find the batch of munitions.

It’s not that he doesn’t trust these brothers!

Although it was safer with the help of these brothers, he couldn't explain how he transported the arms away.

Watching a lot of ammunition disappear out of thin air, how should he tell these brothers?

The space warehouse is his biggest secret.

Besides, after strengthening his body, Su Shaoze believes that he has enough ability to deal with the danger of the dense forest in South Vietnam.

South Vietnam, Tien Giang Province!

Between the high mountains and dense forests, a man wearing South Vietnamese national costumes was walking, observing the surrounding environment with a very vigilant look.

Not long after the Vietnam War ended, the defeated South Vietnamese had strong resistance to the Chinese. Su Shaoze could only pretend to be a South Vietnamese, and he could speak a few words of South Vietnamese.

But this is not very safe, he was found to be Chinese twice.

He had no choice but to kill and silence.

Relying on the food and water stored in the space warehouse, he walked day and night, and went to rest in the warehouse when he was tired. It took him three days to reach Qianjiang Province.

After another two days of searching in the surrounding mountains and dense forests, he finally found the hidden cave.

The surroundings look different from the photos I saw on the Internet in later generations, but the terrain is similar, and Su Shaoze is sure that it is here.
