Chapter 1673 Mother of the Motherland - the way home from a dream (23)

   No matter how Zhao Zhuzi shouted, Li Ergou couldn't hear him.

   Zhao Zhuzi watched Li Ergou with a bomb, and three other people sneaking away to the enemy's military camp.

   "Do you still want to see it?" Yin Yin asked.

   Zhao Zhuzi had already anticipated what would happen next, but he didn't see it with his own eyes, and was still reluctant to give up, he nodded.

   Yin Yin took him and followed behind Li Ergou.

   The front line was fighting, and the enemy's military camp was relatively weak. In addition, Li Ergou's lurking ability was good. When he arrived at his destination, he was not found.

   At this time, he was hiding in the designated position, holding an old pocket watch in his hand.

   This was given to them by Zhang Jianjun, four people, one for each, in order to detonate the bomb at the designated time.

  Li Ergou held the pocket watch tightly in his hand.

   Pocket watches are very expensive. Li Ergou has never seen a watch, let alone a pocket watch.

   He didn't know how to tell the time at first, but his comrades taught him, and now he understands it.

   But the three needles reached the middle at the same time, that is, twelve o'clock, and it was also the time to detonate the bomb.

   And now, it is half past eleven, and there is still half an hour at twelve o'clock.

   His eyes fell on the second hand, and the second hand was ticking. Li Ergou knew that every time the second hand moved, it was a countdown to his death.

   Facing death, is he afraid?

  Li Ergou asked himself in his heart.

   He remembered his childhood.

  Thinking of so many brothers and sisters dying because of various reasons, thinking of my mother dying because of poor health and depressed heart, and thinking of my old father who is still waiting for him at home.

  Li Ergou's eyes turned red.

   he murmured silently.

   "Dad, Ergou, Ergou is scared."

   He was afraid of death.

He was afraid of dying like his brothers and sisters. Although he was young at that time, he still remembered their struggles and pains before they died, and their reluctance. In Li Ergou's view, death is a very scary and very scary thing. Terrible thing.

   Moreover, he couldn't bear to part with his father, who had sent the black-haired man to the white-haired man so many times. He said that he would wait for him to come back at home. If he died, what would his father do.

   However, Li Ergou thought of the iron egg who died for himself.

   If it wasn't for his cowardice and fear, Iron Egg would not have died to save him.

   And he thought about his reasons for going to the battlefield.

Isn't    just to protect the family and the country? If he backs down and gets scared, what would he talk about defending his family and the country.

   He doesn't want to back down, he doesn't want to live so uselessly, he wants to be the country, the people, and the pride of his father.

  Li Ergou held the pocket watch, tears streaming down, he calmed down his emotions and stopped his body from trembling.

  He comforted himself without God: "Er dog, not afraid, not afraid, not afraid..."

   He whispered, but tears fell on the pocket watch inch by inch.

   He remembered something and took out a piece of paper from his clothes.

   It was a letter he "written" to his father, but he never sent it out.

  Li Ergou knew what it meant by his mission this time.

  He thought about whether to send this letter to the head of the regiment, and ask the head of the regiment to help him deliver it to his father at that time.

   But in the end he didn't do it.

   He was afraid. Dad would think of him and cry when he saw this letter.

   He remembered that a comrade in arms said a word called "seeing things and thinking about people".

   He didn't want Dad to think of him when he saw this letter, so Dad would definitely cry. He didn't want Dad to cry.
