Chapter 299 Kiss You a Thousand Times 3
He must read the letter sent by his wife in a place where no one is around.
After careful calculation, this letter should have been sent by Feng Qingxue after receiving his letter. I don’t know if the content has been corrected.
“Tsk!” Zhao Yong laughed, “Anyway, I am the hero who delivered letters and things to you. How can you be like this? You get the things and throw me out of the wall.”
Lu Jiang doesn’t care. Now he only has his wife’s letter in his eyes and heart.
What is written in the letter? Will it be full of affection? Instead of a serious description of trivial matters?
"Okay, I'm not kidding you anymore." Zhao Yong straightened his face, stood at attention with a "click", and saluted him. "Comrade Lu Jiang, on behalf of our former comrades, the soldiers of our country, thank you, thank you for your lover!"
Lu Jiang was stunned, returned the salute, and then asked: "What happened?"
Zhao Yong put down his hand and whispered: "I just received a call from Huo Beiting, asking me to thank you and your lover for saving my life. He also wrote a letter to Comrade Qingxue, which was just sent out. It won't reach your home for ten days or half a month, so he called us first." He used a military phone to connect to his own troops, which was more convenient than telegrams.
"What's the situation?" Lu Jiang frowned.
"Do you know? Huo Beiting's food rations have been reduced to three catties of cornmeal per month! Three catties, what does that mean? It's only enough for three days of our food!" Zhao Yonghu's eyes were filled with tears. "The environment there is harsh. It's scorching hot in summer, freezing in winter, and full of wind and sand in spring. It doesn't rain at ordinary times, which is not conducive to growing crops, so there is naturally no harvest. And because it is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, transportation is inconvenient, and the ethnic minorities there are in turmoil, so the supplies that should be sent there can't be transported there at all."
The food that Feng Qingxue sent over saved Huo Beiting's life and the lives of more than a dozen comrades.
When the food arrived, they had been out of food for three days.
Because their food was given to the local people who were out of food, and they relied on drinking snow mountain water and digging wild grass roots to fill their stomachs.
The local wild rabbits were basically impossible to catch, as they had been caught by the starving people.
Therefore, when he received Lu Jiang's letter, he had no way to exchange things for Feng Qingxue, so he had to take out some of the unused military supply tickets and send them to Feng Qingxue. Lu Jiang's family was in the sixth category of the area, and he could buy military supplies with military supply tickets, while he and his comrades were in the eleventh category of the area, and they could not buy enough food and non-staple food with tickets, so they saved a lot of tickets.
He never expected that he would receive food sent by Feng Qingxue shortly after sending the military supply tickets.
These food allowed more than a dozen people to continue their lives and wait for the belated rations.
Without these dozens of kilograms of food, they would not be able to wait for the arrival of rations.
After listening, Lu Jiang closed his eyes fiercely, and his mood could not be calmed for a long time. The soldiers were out of food, and you can imagine how difficult the conditions there were. It was not enough to describe it as hell on earth.
"I have never heard Qingxue mention this matter." Lu Jiang opened his eyes and said to Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong wiped his face fiercely and patted his shoulder. "Good brother, you really married a good wife! She is a good wife, a good sister-in-law, and a good role model for our soldiers! When I received Huo Beiting's call, it was hard for me to imagine that my sister-in-law would send food to Huo Beiting. Her good deed saved the lives of more than a dozen soldiers in our country!"
