At 5 a.m., the sky was covered with stars, and it was a clear sky. After being washed by a strong typhoon, it even showed a new image outside the disaster area. At this time, most of them were still dreaming, but there were exceptions.

When several people discovered that the troops' convoys were driving out from various temporary stations, they immediately realized that the troops were leaving. They called their friends to call their friends as soon as possible. In a very short time, more and more people walked out of their homes and walked onto the streets. Someone immediately determined the route of the troops' convoys, and then spontaneously organized them to run to the front to have a farewell.

The grassroots organizations such as streets, communities and other grassroots organizations were prepared in advance, and all kinds of gifts, such as gifts, were prepared a few days in advance, just waiting for the day when the troops were withdrawn. Some people were on duty for 24 hours a day, and reported immediately after receiving the news, and acted quickly according to the established plan.

But their actions were obviously not as fast as the masses.

In the past few days, the figures of officers and soldiers of the army can be seen everywhere, and they will appear wherever they need it. No matter what time or what is hard, dirty or tired, they cannot shake their firm beliefs. The local people saw it and touched it in their hearts. When they were desperate, they overcome all difficulties. These divine weapons were the soldiers of the people.

For middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, these soldiers are as old as their own children. Their children are either in college or just entering society and need financial support from their families, or they have accomplished nothing, but these soldiers of average age are already fighting for others.

By comparison, the difference is determined immediately.

The People's Army is for the people, and the People's Army loves the people. The familiar slogans that can be heard often, and say heart-wrenching words. Unless a disaster comes, few people will think of a group of people silently dedicating. The people in the disaster-stricken areas of Shuitan Town are obviously particularly profound in their feelings about this.

From saving the masses from being in danger in times of crisis to helping the masses resume normal production and life as soon as possible, the people's soldiers are fighting on the front line. They also have parents, and they are also their parents' hearts at home, but wearing military uniforms is like putting on the front line with invulnerable armor.

The little things that have been passed over the past few days have deeply moved the people in the disaster area. Their respect for the people's army has reached its peak and their love for their soldiers has reached its peak.

At this time, the soldiers were unwilling to cause trouble to the people and had to leave quietly, which was something they could not agree to.

In just over a dozen minutes, tens of thousands of people gathered on both sides of the streets out of the city, holding various gifts prepared in advance and waiting for them, and some of them pulled up the banners. Soon, all the street lights on both sides of the street lighted up, and the government departments responded quickly after receiving the message.

Some people spontaneously formed a message notification group and promptly sent out the situation of the troops to notify the people who were sending off the road to update their locations. The principle is to ensure that even if a car or a soldier is not missed, you must send off your heart to the farewell.

Political Commissar Yuan’s domineering off-road vehicle was the first car, and Li Zewen was the driver. Seeing the street lights suddenly light up, more and more people gathered on both sides of the road and put out farewell banners. Li Zewen was shocked and asked for instructions, "Political Commissar, our plan has been exposed."

"What was expected." Political Commissar Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with it. In the case of non-military operations, the troops' operations were very confidential and they even took the initiative to inform the outside world. It was impossible for the troops to quietly evacuate, and it was certain that they would wake up some people.

However, when he received a report that there were almost all the farewell people on both sides of the route out of the city, he was still surprised. The number of people was unexpected, and the preparations of the people were unexpected. The response speed of the local government was also unexpected, indicating that they have been preparing these days.

"Political Commissar, what should I do?" Li Zewen asked for instructions, "It seems that the front is blocked."

While he was speaking, the people on both sides of the road ahead walked down the street, holding gifts with farewell banners and carrying various gifts. The wide road was quickly caught by the people on both sides, and Li Zewen had to slow down the speed. It can be seen that the people were very excited. For these days, they had not had a chance to express their love for their soldiers. Now that the troops are leaving, it is too late to express them. However, they did not lose their minds and still reminded themselves not to interfere with the troops' actions.

However, how can the troops turn a blind eye to this situation?

"Do you park?" Li Zewen asked again.

Political Commissar Yuan thought about it and said, "Slow down the speed and pay attention to safety, but don't stop."

"I understand." Li Zewen controlled the vehicle speed to twenty kilometers per hour.

The moving speed of the motorized column composed of hundreds of military vehicles suddenly slowed down. The crowd rushed up without hesitation and trotted the things in their hands into the car.

On the right side of the co-pilot of the eight-wheel heavy-load military card, Su Pingguo was in the middle, and behind an eight-wheel heavy-load military card was led by Chen Xueer and Zhu Wei. This is all the forces of the two platoons. Chen Xueer originally wanted to take the same car with Li Shuai, because Niu Jun had to take the commuter car in the agency to shoot the materials for the troops to return to the camp, so this was a good opportunity to be alone with Li Shuai. However, Chen Xueer was angry when she saw Li Shuai's expression of disagreement, and she sat with Zhu Wei in anger.

More and more people were flocking to the car, and more and more people surrounded and ran with the vehicles, talking excitedly at the officers and soldiers in the car.

Li Shuai was very worried and said, "Xiao Zhang slowed down and paid attention to both sides of the vehicle."

"Shirtful squad leader, my speed is already very slow." The driver Xiaozhang was so nervous that he was not afraid of meeting people and being too excited to come into contact with the crowd. In that case, things would turn into bad things and spread thousands of miles.

The road ahead was probably blocked. The car in front stopped, and then he saw the cadres in the car in front getting off the car and constantly explaining to the enthusiastic people. How could Li Shuai sit and watch when he saw this situation, and got off the car quickly with Su Pingguo. They both got off the car and were surrounded by the crowd.

"Comrades! We won't stop you when you leave! But these are our wishes, you must accept them!"

"Yes, yes! These days, you don't eat our mouthfuls of water and don't drink ours. If you leave, you must be grateful for your kindness!"

...

He talked all the time, and then someone who was smart would stuff things into Li Shuai and Su Pingguo's hands, and turned around and left. Li Shuai and Su Pingguo had never seen this formation, so they caught it blindly and could only keep emphasizing discipline.

"Uncle, aunt, we really can't accept it. The troops are disciplined and cannot take the masses one stitch at a time. It's really not possible. Please understand, please understand!" Li Shuai explained loudly.

A young man shouted loudly, "This is not what you took to you, we gave it to you! Comrades in the People's Liberation Army! No, I'm disappointing our kindness!"

"No matter what, it's fine. If you can't take it, you can't take it. Please understand, please understand!" Su Pingguo kept waving his hand and shook his head to refuse.

On the one hand, the enthusiastic masses must give gifts to the officers and soldiers, and on the other hand, the officers and soldiers who abide by the three major disciplines and eight items and pay attention to resolutely not accept them. The two sides are stalemate. Similar scenes occur on various sections of the route out of the city. What kind of gifts are they? Fruits, eggs, milk, snacks are the main ones, and some are down-to-earth, such as live chickens.

When Political Commissar Yuan saw this situation, he realized that the military and civilians had almost reached this place, so he decisively issued an order to continue driving. The backbone of the cadres and cadres in charge quickly got on the bus, and the driver accelerated slowly.

When the crowd saw this situation, they became anxious. They followed the car without stopping and threw the things in their hands into the car, regardless of whether you want to take them away anyway.

This situation surprised the soldiers in the carriage and didn't know what to do. He quickly asked his superiors for instructions. Before the superiors replied, the people threw the gifts into the carriage as if they were right.

Soon Political Commissar Yuan issued an instruction: "Disposal according to the specific circumstances, we must not hurt the hearts of the masses nor violate discipline."

Well, everyone was confused about this instruction. What kind of order is this? No matter how you look at it, they are two requirements that cannot be taken into account! The officers and soldiers were helpless and could only push them if they could push them. Forget those who were far away, they just threw them into the car. After all, there were not many things that could be thrown in. Moreover, most of the people who chose this method were young people. People of a certain age were chasing the car and they must hand over the gift to the officers and soldiers. There was a qualifying thing.

No matter how superiors look at it, the new recruits feel very, very good, and everyone has the same feeling - any efforts in the past are worth it. The few new recruits with resentment have long since disappeared. They understood the sentence "the sacred mission of soldiers" for the first time.

The female recruits in the independent platoon smiled and refused the gifts from the masses and asked everyone to retreat to both sides of the road to not affect the movement of the convoy. Occasionally, there was a forceful person. The female recruits were helpless and could only continue to put them in the car. They were so happy that the atmosphere in the platoon was very depressed because of Li Fengxiang and Chen Xiao in the past few days. No one felt regretful at this time.

The small vehicles in the agency were running back and forth in a hurry, using the loudspeaker to persuade the enthusiastic masses, and finally let the convoy barely return to its normal travel speed.

Political Commissar Yuan suddenly notified Li Shuai, "Li Shuai! Your platoon has been adjusted to the end and changed to the rear car, and he is responsible for taking some of the officers and soldiers transferred back!"

“Received!”

Li Shuai asked the driver to take aside and slow down and wait for all the vehicles behind to pass. The carriage of the eight-wheel heavy-load military card they were sitting in was much larger than the four-ton military card in front, two and four behind. It was no problem to sit forty people without fully armed forces. The police dispatched team reported that seven or eight officers and soldiers guarding several intersections in front needed to send another car to pick them up. Political Commissar Yuan handed the task to Li Shuai.

After the last car passed, Li Shuai's car followed.

At this time, the three squad leaders, He Biting, Zhang Xiaoran and Fang Yasong, who were sitting at the rear of the car, saw a boy running and chasing him. He looked closely and found that it was Feng Liang. He Biting quickly reported to Li Shuai on the walkie-talkie.

Feng Liang ran over from the hospital. When he learned that the troops were leaving, he picked up a small bag of cooked eggs and ran out of the hospital. He ran over for five or six minutes in one breath. However, when he arrived, the convoy started again. He did not give up. He gritted his teeth and continued to chase forward, catching up with the car where the female recruits were independent platoon. It was the PLA sisters who pulled out grandpa, grandma, and sister from the ruins.

"Sister! Sister of the People's Liberation Army! Wait! Please wait!" Feng Liang shouted loudly, and as the car got farther and farther away, he burst into tears, "Wait!"

Li Shuai asked the driver to stop the car, pushed the door and jumped out of the car and walked backwards.

Feng Liang was happy, gritted his teeth and ran up to Li Shuai, stood in front of him like military posture, and said, "People's Liberation Army Brother, my grandma cooked eggs and gave them to the injured PLA sister. Can you help me pass them?"

Li Shuai looked at the small bag of eggs in Feng Liang's hand, which was still wearing a hospital gown, with about four or five. He said, "You ran over from the hospital to give the injured PLA sister a few eggs?"

"Yes, my grandma said that eggs are supplemented with nutrition, and I hope the injured PLA sisters can recover as soon as possible." Feng Liang said, looking at Li Shuai, and then at the PLA sisters in the carriage, with gratitude and reluctance in their eyes.

Li Shuai took the egg and said, "Thank you."

He said to Manager Feng Liang.

Feng Liang gave the Young Pioneers ritual seriously.

"Go back quickly and take good care of grandparents, young man, goodbye." Li Shuai patted Feng Liang's shoulder lightly.

Feng Liang looked at Li Shuai's back as he turned around and suddenly shouted: "I will join the army when I grow up!"

Li Shuai stopped and turned around and smiled, "I'm waiting for you in the army, come on!"

"Yes! Chief!"

The vehicle started again, and gradually moved away. Feng Liang stood there and watched him, his figure getting smaller and smaller.

"I must join the army! Be a brave soldier!" Feng Liang shouted at the taillights of the car, and the sound drifted far and far away.

The reporters came from the farewell scene to the temporary garrison sites of various troops, basically the school. They were surprised to find that there were almost no traces of people moving in the entire school, no garbage, the tables were neatly arranged, and the floors were cleaned. Perhaps only the message on the blackboard reminded everyone that hundreds of officers and soldiers had been stationed here before, which was the only trace they left.

In the classroom where the female recruits lived in an independent platoon, the tables and chairs were lined and surfaced, and the blackboard was a beautiful blackboard newspaper full of steel tenderness.

The elegant blackboard words read: Dear classmates, although we have never met, you have always been in our hearts and will always be in our hearts in the future. Some stationery is the right to be a meeting gift. Students, we appear for your blooming. You are the future of the motherland. For your peaceful study and living environment, we are willing to pay any price. I hope you will study hard and contribute to the construction of a prosperous motherland when you grow up. Salute!
