    80 Comradeship While Li Dawei and Hu Jiesen were eating roast duck at the front door, a welcome banquet was also held in the first canteen of the base. Yang Guang and four other soldiers from the guard company who participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea returned in triumph. There were loud gongs and drums outside the first canteen.  , firecrackers went off. When the five soldiers walked into a cafeteria passage, Deng Feng, Chang Qiankun and members of Zhi Kongxianzhi came forward and shook hands with them one by one. Deng Feng said: "On behalf of the Volunteer Air Force Frontline Command, I  Warmly welcome you - the victorious heroes! "Thank you, chief, and thank you comrades for your kindness." Then five female soldiers including Liu Ying and Tang Na brought big red flowers to them. At the welcome banquet, Deng Feng gave these five  The soldier filled his glass with wine, then filled his own glass, raised his glass and said: "You are the pride of our Volunteer Air Force D1 Army. You embody the fearless heroism and high level of the Volunteer Air Force D1 Army's spirit."  The spirit of patriotism. Practice has proved that those born in the 1990s can not only fight, but also fight very well The whole army warmly invites you to drink a glass of wine!" The five soldiers drank it generously. "Okay!"  More than 200 people applauded in unison, and everyone was happy Yang Guang was the last of the five to return. After the Battle of Sunchuan Pass, he was loaned to the Political Department of the 42nd Army to participate in the interrogation of prisoners of war.  After that, a sniper and anti-tank training class was held for the 42nd Army. The 42nd Army received the order for the first time and refused to release the people. Four days ago, the 42nd Army once again received an order from the Volunteer Army Command to let Yang  Yang Guang is about to return home and has an important mission. Before leaving, Yang Guang borrowed a US military field jeep from the Military Political Department and went to the hill at the pass to say goodbye to his comrades who were buried here. He said goodbye to the snow-covered  He paid a solemn military salute to each of the graves. Then he came to Ergou's grave, swept away the snow on Ergou's grave with his hands, lit three cigarettes and inserted them in front of the grave. Then he took off the  Military cap, bowed his head in silence. At this time, he felt that the whistling mountain wind had stopped, the clouds in the sky had stopped, and the mountains and fields were covered with silver, and there was silence His eyes were moist, and he said emotionally:  Ergou, my good brother, you are a real warrior. I am leaving now and cannot go back for you. But you will not be alone and there are so many comrades with you. I will go back to see my mother and sister. Rest in peace.  Well, I will come to see you again when I have the opportunity. On the second day after returning to the base, he explained the situation to the unit leader, took two days off to visit Ergouzi¡¯s mother, and suggested that the company commander let everyone donate some old clothes and quilts.  The company commander also agreed, and immediately asked several company cadres who lived at the base to go home, find a lot of clothes and quilts, and pack two large backpacks. For safety, the security company specially sent a jeep and two soldiers to accompany them.  After leaving, he went to the Lantian Supermarket in the family area of ????the base. He used his allowance of more than 2 million yuan in the past few months to buy two boxes of instant noodles and the rest bought chocolates. He was really broke now.  The money on the bank cannot be withdrawn, and even if it is withdrawn, it is useless and cannot be spent. What is used now is December 1, 1948, when the People's Bank of China was established and issued the first set of RMB. These two boxes of instant noodles were also used. The manager of the supermarket listened to him  After telling the story of Ergou, he rummaged through the supermarket warehouse to find the last two boxes. Yang Guang loaded the things into the jeep and set off with the two soldiers accompanying him. Ergou¡¯s home is actually not far from their base, so  It was about a hundred kilometers away, but the roads at that time were not good. There were no cars. Except for a truck not far from the security circle outside the base, I didn't encounter any cars at all. The three of them drove 4  After arriving at the township government where Ergou lived for an hour, he inquired and found out that there is still a 10-kilometer mountain road to Ergou's village. The correspondent in the township affirmed that the car could not drive through it. Yang Guang had no choice.  They had no choice but to leave one person behind and ask the village correspondent to show them the way. The people at that time were very practical, so the correspondent said hello to the villagers and went with Yang Guang and others. It took more than four hours to walk 10 kilometers.  , they arrived at Ergou¡¯s village at around eight o¡¯clock in the evening. They found the village chief, who wanted to take them there immediately. Yang Guang thought it was too late, don¡¯t scare the two of them, and told the village chief to go to the village first.  The members of the farmers' association stayed overnight and talked about it at dawn. So the village chief was busy boiling water. Yang Guang and the others took out the buns they brought from the company and baked them on the fire pit. The four of them ate and chatted. Yang Guang carefully told the villagers  The chief asked about the situation of Ergou's family. "We are poor. Although some land has been allocated after liberation, our area is mountainous. One acre of land cannot produce much food. In addition, the family does not have a decent labor force. We have been working hard for a year.  He couldn't even eat half full. The kid Ergou cried out the year before last that he wanted to be a soldier, but people thought he was young and didn't want it. When the Eighth Route Army left, he ran away and stayed away for three years. At that time, his mother was so anxious that she almost went crazy.  Last autumn this year, his mother begged me to write a letter to the Eighth Route Army where we were stationed. I asked Liu Daming to write a letter to her, but I never received a reply. Now I don¡¯t know whether he is dead or alive. "The village chief is a very good man."  A talkative and enthusiastic person. Yang Guang told the village chief: "He received your letter, and Ergou also replied to your letter, but he died before it was mailed." "Does sacrifice mean death?"  The village chief asked. Yang Guang nodded. "Oh! Oh my god, how can the two of them live like this? This is the second one in our village. But that family, Ding Wang, has five brothers. This  There is only one of the two dogs. The father of the two dogs died early. His mother took the two children and begged here and there to raise them so big. ThenBut it's not easy. Hey, how do you think this can be solved?" The village chief kept rubbing his hands. "Comrade, if there is less of a washer and cook in your team, just take them away.  If Ergou is alive, her mother still has hope, but now it is gone, leaving them unable to live?" the village chief said sadly. "I asked you why you are talking nonsense after you have forgotten so many years." The township correspondent criticized the village  The village chief said: "What kind of thing is it that a group of orphans and widowed mothers are in the ranks of the People's Liberation Army? It's all nonsense!" The village chief looked at Yang Guang and said: "Little comrade, don't be ridiculous, we country people don't understand policies." "  "How old is Ergou's mother?" Yang Guang asked. "The village chief counted on his fingers and said: "37, Xiaoya is also eleven this year, heyhow did he die?" Yang Guang  Said: "Er Gou is a great hero. He killed more than 20 American soldiers and three enemy tanks." "He can kill more than 20 American soldiers like him?" the village chief said with some disbelief.  Yang Guang nodded and said: We have been together all this time. I have seen it with my own eyes. The army has awarded him a first-class meritorious service. It won't be long before the news of his meritorious service will come to your county. Your township. He is your village.  The glory of your county!" Yang Guang then told the story of Ergou's heroic battle and heroic sacrifice. Everyone present was moved by Ergou's heroic deeds. "I never thought that Ergou would become a great hero.  "Our village has never had such a hero. From now on, we will mobilize the whole village to take good care of Ergou's mother and his sister. Everyone will lend their hands and help in whatever way they can." Yang Guang said.  : "Let me first thank the village chief for his concern and care for the martyrs' families on behalf of Er Gou's spirit in heaven. Even though Er Gou is gone, I will still take care of them for Er Gou." The next morning, the three of them drank at the village chief's house.  After a bowl of porridge with sorghum rice noodles and some pickles, the village chief even boiled a few eggs for Yang Guang and his fellow correspondents in the township. Yang Guang and his friends saw that the village chief's family was not rich, so they really couldn't eat.  Finally, led by the village chief, we arrived at Ergou's home. In front of a one-and-a-half-room earthen house at the foot of a mountain, the village chief shouted outside the door, "Ergou, your mother is coming to your house!" A little girl  Half of his face was exposed from the hole in the window paper, and then he turned around and said: "It's Uncle Liu from the east end, saying that our family is coming to visit." "Ergou, your mother is coming to visit!" The village chief walked towards the house.  While shouting: "Why haven't you come out to pick up your relatives?" Yang Guang followed the village chief into the house and couldn't help but frown. It was colder inside the house than outside. Lying on the earthen bed was a woman who looked to be in her 40s.  . Cowering in a shabby quilt. Xiaoya also shivered and stretched her feet under the quilt. The window paper was in tatters and rustled in the wind. Ergou struggled to get up from the bed and said:  "The village chief is here" "The people from Ergou's team are here to see you are coming" the village chief said to her. "The people from Ergou's team? Ergou still Xiaoya interrupted and said: "I  "My mother has a cold. Her whole body is burning." "You girl, why don't you go down to the ground and burn the kang." In poor rural areas, children have to shoulder the burden of life too early. As the saying goes, children of poor people become the masters early.  The village chief did not question Xiaoya as a child at all. Yang Guang said: Forget it, he is still a child. After that, he went to the kitchen of the outhouse, opened the lid of the pot, and saw that the water in the pot had frozen into ice cubes.  , there was a small pile of sorghum poles piled on the ground. He picked up a few and stuffed them into the furnace, and used a lighter to light the firewood." At this time, Xiaoya ran out and said, "These firewood will be burned in the evening, and they are burned now.  There is no fever at night, it is even colder." "Is there no firewood at home, little sister?" Yang Guang asked as he looked at this man with a sallow complexion and thin skin. He could tell that he was suffering from long-term malnutrition. He was only seven or eight years old when he was eleven.  "Yes, she's still in the field and hasn't been carried back." Xiaoya said, "My mother has been ill these days, so I took care of her and didn't carry her back." The village chief also came out at this time and stuffed the stove pit again.  A handful of firewood. Said: "Okay, I will hitch a cart and pull a cart back for you. Sigh" The village chief sighed again and said, "You girl, I didn't tell you  Have you two met? If you have anything to do, go to Murakami and tell him. You haven't eaten yet, so make some porridge for your mother." "The water tank is frozen," Xiaoya said, picking up a broken ladle and putting it in the mud pot before going out to play.  "Water" Yang Guang saw the water tank next to the stove. There was a small amount of water in it, with thick ice on it. He shook his head. He could not imagine how these two women lived.
