Special Years

Chapter 1151: Goodbye, comrade!

In fact, the weather that day was really good.

The sky is azure blue, and the wind is not too big or not small, blowing on the face like a pair of gentle hands.

When he got out of the airport, he saw Liu Honggui sitting on the side of the roadside flower bed, with the pair of crutches leaning beside him. He was wearing summer clothes, and his right trousers were folded and pinned.

Beside him stood a young girl in her twenties, with a simple ponytail tied with a rubber band, the skin on her face was slightly dark, her eyes were full of shyness, and she didn't dare to look up at others.

From the point of view of dress, this girl is not like a city person, she has the unpretentiousness and naturalness of a mountain person.

"Old class leader!"

The solemn conjecture finally came to fruition.

Before he came, Liu Honggui flashed in his mind.

Sure enough, it was really the old monitor Liu Honggui.

Liu Honggui, who was sitting by the flower bed, seemed to be in good spirits, but he lost a lot of weight.

Go up solemnly, squat down, grab those hands with both hands.

Due to the long-term cultivation, Liu Honggui's skin has become quite fair.

The blue veins appeared as obvious as a centipede under the skin. Because of the loss of so much subcutaneous fat, Majestic felt that he was holding a pair of hard bones—perhaps there were really only bones.

Looking at Liu Honggui's face again, his cheekbones were spit out, and his cheeks were sunken.

My heart was sore, my throat was blocked again, and I couldn't speak.

"Do not be sad."

Instead, Liu Honggui consoled solemnly.

"The doctor said it's a miracle that I can survive until today."

He poked his chest, then poked his belly.

"It's a mess inside, it's all spread."

Zhuang Yan didn't know what to say.

Tang Wenkai stood aside, unable to speak.

The atmosphere seemed a little dignified.

It was Liu Honggui who continued to speak: "I said, I will persist until you come back, and insist on seeing your victory, solemnly, I have not broken my promise."

The solemn head bowed and nodded vigorously: "Yes, old monitor, you didn't break your promise."

Suddenly remembering something, he raised his head and said, "Old monitor, I'm going to call Niu Shilin and Xu Er over!"

With that said, the man stood up and was about to go to the airport.

"No!" Liu Honggui stopped Zhuang Yan: "Don't ask them to come here, I will let the instructor go to you and the battalion commander alone, just because I don't want to be seen...

"Why?" asked solemnly, puzzled.

Liu Honggui was stunned for a while, and suddenly there was a wry smile on the corner of his mouth: "Let's leave some thoughts, let's leave some pretty good thoughts..."

He opened his hands and looked down at himself.

"I don't want others to see me as I am now. Even if it's... just give me the last bit of dignity."

Zhuang Yan felt that a needle was stabbing his heart, causing incomparable pain.

"Hong Gui...you..." Tang Wenkai seemed to sense something, but was reluctant to ask that sentence.

After thinking about it, he still couldn't hold back.

"Batch commander, I heard that you came back today. I specifically asked the instructor to bring me here. Because I'm leaving, I came to say goodbye to you."

In fact, Liu Honggui's words were already vaguely within Tang Wenkai's guess.

But he didn't want to hear the result.

"Hong Gui, are you leaving the army?" Tang Wenkai asked.

Liu Honggui had almost no hesitation, nodded immediately and said, "Yes, I have already gone through the formalities and decided to leave, and the teacher also agreed. It was just last week that you were coming back, so I stayed for a while longer. go."

Tang Wenkai was a little unhappy: "What did the teacher think? Actually agreed? What kind of plane is this!"

Liu Honggui explained: "I applied for it myself, and it has nothing to do with anyone. It wasn't the army that let me go, but the decision I made after careful consideration."

go?

Neither Tang Wenkai nor Zhuang Yan were willing to accept Liu Honggui's decision.

An officer with terminal cancer, where can he go after leaving the army?

It is definitely impossible to change careers, at most it is raised by the army.

If so, why go?

Wouldn't it be nice to stay in the army?

Instructor Lu Xiao sighed slightly, turned around, and looked into the distance.

"Old squad leader, where did you leave the army?" said solemnly.

"Go for treatment." Liu Honggui said, "Maybe go to a few places to see a doctor."

"Seeing a doctor?" said Zhuang Yan, "Isn't it good for the army? There is a hospital in our division, a hospital in Linhai City, and a hospital in the military district..."

He originally wanted to leave the army, but in case there are three strengths and two weaknesses, without the care of the army, can Liu Honggui do it?

Liu Honggui seemed to have made up his mind and interrupted Zhuang Yan: "Okay, Zhuang Yan, I know my own situation very well. Besides letting others watch me die slowly, is there any other meaning in staying in the army?"

Solemn was speechless.

Indeed, it seems pointless to stay.

The only effect is to make myself and Tang Wenkai, my comrades, feel better.

In fact, for Liu Honggui personally, there is no difference at all.

"If I don't leave again, I'm afraid my other foot will be cut off." Liu Honggui made a joke.

But when Zhuang Yan and others heard it, they didn't find it funny at all.

Liu Honggui said, "battalion commander, can you let me talk to Zhuang Yan privately?"

Tang Wenkai felt that standing here would make him more uncomfortable. Since Liu Honggui wanted to talk to Zhuang Yan alone, he agreed without thinking.

"Okay, I'll go over there."

After speaking, I walked to the side of the airport gate with the instructor Lu Xiao and stood there talking in a low voice.

Only then did Liu Honggui turn to look at Zhuang Yan: "You are fine..."

After saying these words, his lips moved a few times and stopped.

"You have done what you promised me. As a comrade-in-arms, I am very grateful for everything you have done for me. If it weren't for me, you would not have stayed in Division 4. I am relieved to have you in Division 1 now. This time I choose Leaving has nothing to do with any head of the division. It took me a long time to figure it out. Instead of waiting here to die, accepting chemotherapy and radiotherapy to survive, I might as well try traditional Chinese medicine, or folk remedies..."

"If you stay here, it won't prevent you from using the remedies!" Zhuang Yan hurriedly said, "I can help you find any remedies you need."

Liu Honggui waved his hand: "No need. Zhuang Yan, you are a military talent, but there are some things you still don't understand. I will stay in the army for a day, and I am still a soldier..."

He looked down at his uniform.

There is no military rank on it...

"As long as I'm a soldier, I'll be fine if I eat the remedies, but if I die unfortunately, the army will be criticized as being irresponsible for me... You said, the doctors in our army let me eat it. Or don’t let me eat well? I have been in the army since I was 18 years old. I have feelings for this place, and I have reached this stage. I don’t want to give the army a bad name when I die.”

Solemn was speechless.

He hadn't thought about this level of reasoning.

Perhaps no one thinks so thoroughly as Liu Honggui.

Because of his illness, he has a lot of time to think about things that others don't have time to think about.

"A lifetime of..."

Liu Honggui suddenly let out a long sigh, with more points of sadness in his tone.

"Actually, just think about it, everyone has to die, sooner or later. As long as you live, do what you think is worthwhile, and that's fine. My best youth stayed in the army, to be honest, I do not regret."

The solemn nose began to sore again.

"Don't think I'm talking big." Liu Honggui said, "Do you remember when you went to the hospital and saw an old man in the bed next to the room?"

Zhuang Yan remembered that Liu Honggui's ward had three beds and one room, but since there were not many people in the oncology department, so Liu Honggui lived by himself for a while, and then there was an old man.

The old man, surnamed Lin, is a native of Linhai. Before he retired, he drove a taxi. He was one of the first people in Linhai to buy a car and run it for rent.

At the beginning of reform and opening up, taxis were still a novelty.

With his diligence, Old Man Lin turned one car into two, and two into three. After working hard to grow up two sons and a daughter, I didn’t expect to retire and have a few days of happiness. Suddenly, I went to the hospital. After a check, esophagus cancer...

When Zhuang Yan met old man Lin in the hospital, the latter was because he went back for a review and periodic chemotherapy. A year ago, Mr. Lin had surgery to cut out a third of his esophagus, and it is said that he also cut a part of his stomach.

He would often sit on the hospital bed, point to the position of his chest, gesture the distance, and tell Zhuang Yan that his esophagus is only so long and his stomach is only so small, so he can only eat a little bit, a little bit is enough... …

Old man Lin likes to be a soldier very much. When he sees Zhuang Yan, he pulls Zhuang Yan and chats non-stop. He feels that he had the opportunity to become a soldier because of the problem of composition, and he missed the green years of the army.

Once, he also took Zhuang Yan and Liu Honggui, and had to get a breakfast in the cafeteria next to the hospital, saying that he was grateful to the People's Liberation Army for defending the motherland and dedicating their youth.

"Remember." Zhuang Yan nodded immediately.

"The others are gone," Liu Honggui said.

Zhuang Yan was taken aback: "Huh?"

Liu Honggui said: "Three months ago, I called him. I wanted to invite him to dinner, but I didn't expect that it was her wife who answered the phone and said she was gone..."

solemnly stunned.

At this moment, an inexplicable loss welled up in my heart.

Liu Honggui said: "I thought about it a lot after that, and I don't think I know when I will suddenly be like Lao Lin, and I will be gone all of a sudden. I have been in the army for too long, and at the last moment of my life, I don't want to To die here, I'm afraid that others will see the excrement and urine flowing when the reconnaissance company commander finally died, and I can't handle it and ask others to help me. I'm a soldier, and I have my dignity..."

As he spoke, his eyes turned red.

Then he raised his head and looked at the solemn: "Do you understand?"

solemnly said sadly: "I understand, I understand..."

"Okay, let's end the conversation here, I don't like nagging." Liu Honggui struggled to stand up and propped up his crutches.

Zhuang Yan hurried up to help him, but the young girl took the lead.

Liu Honggui said: "Oh, I forgot to introduce. This is my sister, my only relative. It is not convenient for me to leave the army this time for treatment. After thinking about it, I can only call her."

Zhuang Yan nodded to the girl, and the girl also nodded dully.

It can be seen that this is a real girl, and Liu Honggui has her to take care of, so there is no problem.

"I'm leaving." Liu Honggui's words were still as simple and straightforward: "Don't say goodbye to me, I'm tired of saying this, I lie to myself."

Zhuang Yan was at a loss for words, and hurriedly said: "Old monitor, I'll find a car and see you off."

"It's unnecessary, look." Liu Honggui pointed to the road in the distance: "There is a tricycle on that road over there."

"No!"

This time, Zhuang Yan said nothing.

He hurriedly turned around and shouted to Tang Wenkai, "Batch commander! Get a car over here, and company commander Liu is leaving."

Lu Xiao said: "I made arrangements earlier, you wait."

After speaking, he turned around and entered the airport, and after a while, a warrior car drove out.

"Nothing lasts forever."

Before getting into the car, Liu Honggui saluted everyone.

"It will be indefinite in the future! Don't get in the car and send me off, I'll go by myself!"

After saying that, he turned around decisively and got into the car.

After a while, the car disappeared at the end of the road in the distance.

Zhuang Yan, Tang Wenkai and Lu Xiao stood on the side of the road without moving for a long time.

The wind blew over, rolling up the hay flakes on the side of the flower bed not far away, dancing in the air, and occasionally a car galloped by on the road, the tires rolling over the asphalt road, making a whining sound.

An unsung hero is gone~lightnovelpub.net~ Liu Honggui's story is finally finished.

He and Old Man Lin are real people.

At the General Hospital of the Military Region, I stayed with Liu Honggui for more than a month for treatment. Old man Lin was one of the beds next door.

Liu Honggui is a tragic character, and his personal introduction was included in the previous book.

Later he chose to leave the army, as in the book.

On the day he sent him away, he smiled and said to me, "Boy, never see you again!"

I still cry when I remember it.
