Scholars in the courtyard

With his head dizzy and ears ringing, Yang Xiaotao lay on the ground, a burning feeling came over his back, and his whole person was in a state of chaos.

Even so, Yang Xiaotao still tried hard to think about the figure who rushed out just now.

That is, Captain Hao.

Ahem

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Yang Xiaotao gradually fell into coma.

"Section Chief~~"

"director!"

"Xiao Tao"

Waves of shouts rang out, and then Xu Yuanshan got up. After experiencing the war, he was the first to calm down.

The explosion location in the middle was only five meters away from them. If Hao Ren and Yang Xiaotao hadn't been in front of them, it would have been questionable whether he could stand up now.

Just looking at the mutilated body in the middle, with the splattering blood and internal organs

Just know how violent this explosion was.

The sound of a woman's vomiting came from behind, and Xu Yuanshan did not look back. For those who have not experienced war, this scene is like Shura Hell.

"Monitor Hao."

Wang Hao rushed over and held the mutilated body of Hao Ren, who was lifeless, with tears of grief on his face.

"Monitor Hao, wake up, wake up."

"We agreed to drink after get off work, Squad Leader Hao"

"Ah~~~"

Wang Hao roared, and several people rushed out from behind. They all came to the steel rolling mill with Hao Ren, and their expressions were equally sad.

"Alert, call a car!"

Xu Yuanshan roared angrily, Yang Xiaotao was covered in blood in front of him, and he couldn't tell whose blood it belonged to.

Factory Director Wang was pushed away by him and lay struggling on the ground.

There was no time to hesitate, and he roared angrily.

Immediately someone ran to the factory.

Team leader Yu finally rode over, but when he heard the explosion in the distance, he felt a little nervous.

Looking at the explosion scene, I was even more shocked.

Even if it is black flame, at this dose, if they rush forward, these dozen people will have to answer here.

Seeing Xu Yuanshan, this feeling of joy became even stronger.

"who are you!"

Xu Yuanshan was supported by someone. He looked at Team Leader Yu and shouted. The people from the security department rushed out immediately, pointing the muzzles of their guns at several people. On the top of the guard room, a large turntable turned the gun head to ensure safety. Already opened.

The explosion is the call to arms. At this time, anyone who dares to make a move that is detrimental to the steel rolling mill will pull the trigger without hesitation.

This is their right and obligation.

Team Leader Yu looked normal. He first identified himself, then carefully took out his ID and handed it to Xu Yuanshan.

At this time, Liu Huaimin, Yang Youning, Chen Gong and Zhao Chuanjun all ran over, all looking nervous.

Xu Yuanshan looked at the ID and stretched out his hand to signal everyone to put down their guns.

At this time, everyone checked the situation of Yang Xiaotao and Factory Director Wang. Their hearts skipped a beat when they saw the bloody Yang Xiaotao and the unconscious Factory Manager Wang.

Yang Youning still wanted to ask, but there was a jeep driving by. The few people didn't care to say anything, and quickly carried Yang Xiaotao and Director Wang into the car and ran to the first aid station.

When Yang Xiaotao woke up, it was already dark. When he opened his eyes, he saw snow-white sheets and his whole body lying on the bed.

His head was still a little dizzy, but it probably wasn't a concussion. Yang Xiaotao thought it might be because he was hungry.

Then I felt like vomiting in my stomach, but I couldn't vomit it out.

It was as if he had been stuffed with a ball of cotton, making him feel uncomfortable.

There is no feeling on his back now. If anything, it must be cool. He doesn't know what was applied on the back. When the breeze blows, the cool feeling reminds him of the scene before he fell into coma.

One person rushed out, pretended to be with the gangster, and then pushed back.

The gangster immediately fired the explosives in his arms.

It explodes as soon as you pull it, no hesitation.

He reacted quickly. When he saw the big beauty, he pushed Director Wang away and then pushed Xu Yuanshan.

The moment the explosion sounded, Yang Xiaotao threw Xu Yuanshan below, and he blocked most of the aftermath of the explosion. He didn't know what happened to the other two people.

But I'm fine, so I guess it should be fine too.

As for the others, since they are farther away, they should be fine.

I felt the condition of my body. In addition to my head feeling dizzy and vomiting, I also had a burning pain in my back.

Yang Xiaotao felt that fortunately it was not bone pain, but flesh pain.

Thanks to Xiaowei's support over the past few years, his physical fitness was beyond ordinary, so it was no big deal.

Otherwise, the internal organs of ordinary people would not be able to withstand that level of impact.

Move your body, it feels like your blood is not flowing smoothly if you lie down like this all the time.

The body had just turned halfway, and it felt so sore on the back, so I quickly slowed down. At this moment, the door was pushed open.

When Lou Xiao'e and Liu Yuhua walked in carrying fruit thermos bottles, they saw that Yang Xiaotao had woken up and immediately came forward.

"Section Chief, you wake up!"

"Don't move around. The medicine was just applied to your back."

As they talked, they pushed Yang Xiaotao's body back and did not forget to close the window.

"Why are you here? What's going on in the factory?"

Yang Xiaotao continued to lie down.

Lou Xiao'e glanced at Yang Xiaotao's back. Although the skin was not broken, it was bright red, as if it had been burned by an iron pot. It felt uncomfortable to look at it.

Such an injury must be very painful.

"We were arranged by Director Xu. You don't know that Secretary Liu and others came to see you this morning. If the doctor hadn't patted his chest and said it was okay, they would have transferred you to a military hospital."

"But, section chief, you are really lucky. Being so close and covered in blood scared me so much that Xiao'e even vomited from fear!"

"If I hadn't personally inspected it, I wouldn't have believed that I could have withstood this. This body has really strong bones."

"You don't know that Factory Director Wang, who was pushed away by you, is still sleeping next door..."

"By the way, workers Liu and Chen from the workshop are also here. There are many people who want to come, but they are all driven back by Factory Director Yang."

"It's just the two of us. We're fine. Just watch here. By the way, you wake up. I'll notify the secretary."

Liu Yuhua said on the side, finally put down the thermos bottle and walked out.

Lou Xiao'e sat aside, picked up an apple, and peeled it with a knife.

"It's okay in the factory, except that the people in the security department are busy working, and a cordon has been set up at the gate. Anyone who comes near has to be searched, and the same goes for those who come out."

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head and said, "Squad Leader Hao from our team is here!"

Yang Xiaotao's heart tightened. It was indeed him who heard it before he fell into coma.

"Maybe I shouldn't recruit them into the rolling mill."

"Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened."

A feeling of sadness and anger arose in my heart, and an unspeakable self-blame.

Without him, Squad Leader Hao and Platoon Leader Du would still be squatting on the top of the roof to enjoy the cool weather.

Now, without him, there is no one to accompany Platoon Commander Du.

Yang Xiaotao lowered his head and buried his face in the pillow, choking with tears.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao like this, Lou Xiao'e also felt a surge of sadness in her heart.

As a logistics worker, I often run back and forth inside and outside the workshop, and I don’t know much about it.

It had only been a few days since these veterans arrived at the steel rolling mill, but she knew their situation clearly.

Listening to their past deeds, my heart was deeply touched.

Especially Captain Hao, who sacrificed his life, was even more forthright and generous in his communication, giving people a warm and uplifting feeling.

Moreover, after he learned about his origin, not only did he not alienate her, but he encouraged her to study actively, be optimistic and dedicated, and not to think too much.

It is this kind of person who rushes towards the enemy without hesitation. While others are still hesitating, he has already made his choice.

So determined, so brave, the impact on her was so great.

Yang Xiaotao was crying, and Lou Xiao'e also had wet eyes.

Reaching out her hand, Lou Xiao'e hesitated for a moment, and finally put it on Yang Xiaotao's head, comforting her gently.

"Captain Hao said that if he can do something useful for this country in his life, then..."

"No regrets!"

Yang Xiaotao felt even more uncomfortable after hearing this. He raised his head and turned his face sideways, with tears staining his cheeks.

"If he hadn't come here, he wouldn't be like this!"

"He has already contributed a lot to the country, he doesn't need to do this anymore..."

After Lou Xiao'e heard this, she unconsciously stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears, "I believe that Captain Hao will not blame you even if he is in heaven."

Yang Xiaotao didn't notice the distance between the two of them. They didn't wake up until they heard footsteps coming from outside the door again.

Lou Xiao'e quickly retracted her hand, not daring to look at Yang Xiaotao.

Pass the apple casually.

Yang Xiaotao did the same. He wiped his face on the bed and the tears disappeared, then picked up the apple and took a bite. Then he saw a man in a white coat walking in.

"Doctor Li?"

Yang Xiaotao wanted to struggle.

At this moment, what he fears most is seeing these people.

If they had listened to Dr. Li and not allowed them to come to the steel rolling mill, perhaps the tragedy would not have happened.

At least, not on them.

"You need to be emotionally stable and don't be sad, as this is not conducive to recovery."

Dr. Li's voice was calm.

But the more this happened, the more uncomfortable Yang Xiaotao became.

Lou Xiao'e stood up and stood aside. When she heard the two talking, she realized that they knew each other.

Looking at Li Qing again, there was a heroic spirit in his face, and he subconsciously compared himself with her, feeling complicated in his heart.

"sorry!"

Yang Xiaotao was silent for a long time before speaking.

Li Qing's hand that was removing the gauze suddenly paused, and then continued.

"Actually, you don't need to say this."

"At the beginning, I opposed their work because I wanted them to live a life without artillery fire."

"but…"

Li Qing's fingers traced Yang Xiaotao's back, and it felt like a knife slicing through it, burning.

Seeing the twitching on Yang Xiaotao's face, Li Qing slowed down and slowly removed the gauze.

"I was wrong too!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao was very surprised.

Li Qing lowered his head, "What I want is not what they want!"

"These people have pledged their seven-foot bodies to the country a long time ago. Letting them slowly use up their remaining time is cruel to them."

Li Qing said, his eyes already moist.

Du Chuan said this to her personally.

Hearing the news of Hao Ren's death, Du Chuan was both sad and relieved.

The old brother died to protect the people and fulfilled his oath to go to the battlefield.

He was relieved.

When they meet in Huangquan a hundred years later, they can also meet Lao Ma together.

"Doctor Li, Monitor Hao, do you have any relatives?"

Yang Xiaotao tried to take care of Squad Leader Hao's descendants to alleviate his guilt.

Li Qing shook his head.

"Before Squad Leader Hao joined the army, he only had an old woman. He was the youngest of three brothers in the family."

"I heard from him that the eldest son was beaten to death by the landlord, and the second son was sick and had no money to treat him, so he is gone."

"In the end, he carried my mother on his back and begged all the way. He only had food to eat when he encountered the army."

"Before entering the Yalu River, my mother also left. He..."

"No relatives left!"

Yang Xiaotao was silent, clenching his fists tightly.

Lou Xiao'e was silent, and so was Li Qing.

Applying another layer of ointment to his back, Li Qing looked at Yang Xiaotao.

"Actually, I want to thank you."

After saying that, Li Qing took the plate and left without saying why.

After Li Qing left, Lou Xiao'e asked who this person was.

Yang Xiaotao told Lou Xiao'e Li Qing's identity, and Lou Xiao'e breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that it was not that relationship.
