Chapter 148 The Hard Shell of Female Soldiers
Far away from home and loved ones, facing blood and death all day long, Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu don't remember ever having such care and warmth.
Neither of them said anything, but expressed their thoughts with their actions. They hugged Zhang Dongliang's arms tightly, not willing to let go for a moment.
In fact, until later generations, women in South Vietnam were very traditional and basically regarded their husbands as the main focus of their attitude towards men.
If you want to find a traditional woman in the Chinese sense, whether in the present world or in the future, you can only find her in South Vietnam.
This cannot be found in other countries in the Chinese cultural circle. Women are all~~~liberated.
Feeling Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu's slightly trembling bodies, Zhang Dongliang could understand their feelings at the moment.
On the battlefield, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and it was unknown which would come first, death or tomorrow. In this situation, surviving was the most important thing.
Patting their shoulders, Zhang Dongliang comforted them: "Don't worry, we will survive, and everything will be fine."
After they calmed down a bit, Zhang Dongliang opened the big bag he was carrying and said, "Come, take a look at the clothes I brought for you."
The guerrillas prepared a complete set of clothes, and Zhang Dongliang specially picked out two pieces that suited their body shapes.
Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu wiped their eyes, looked at their tattered clothes, and couldn't help but smile shyly.
Having seen life and death on the battlefield, they had no embarrassment in changing clothes in front of Zhang Dongliang.
When Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu took off their clothes and stood in front of Zhang Dongliang, Zhang Dongliang discovered that his bodies had undergone shameful changes.
Lin Lizhen gently pushed Li Caizhu and said, "Sister Caizhu, accompany Brother Zhang to rest inside. I will change my clothes and dry my wound outside."
Lin Lizhen knew that Brother Zhang had fought all night to bring so many clothes for them. Now Brother Zhang needed to vent and calm his body's restlessness.
Li Caizhu was a nurse by training, so she was not shy and dragged her beloved brother Zhang into the tent.
"Sister Lizhen, come and help me~~" Not long after, Li Caizhu ran outside naked, holding her clothes, smiling, and pushed Lin Lizhen into the tent again.
Half an hour later, Zhang Dongliang and Lin Lizhen put on their clothes and walked out of the tent. Zhang Dongliang took a deep breath and felt that the sky was so blue and the air was so fresh.
Last night, we helped the South Vietnamese people eliminate the American invaders. The results were great, and the battlefield was in a mess. I guess both sides will have to clean up the battlefield in the next two days, so the front is temporarily inaccessible.
In addition, Lin Lizhen's wound has not healed yet, so she has to stay here for a few days.
Zhang Dongliang was not in a hurry. He brought back a complete set of canned food, rice, clothes, and a pile of water bottles. There was no shortage of water in the jungle.
In addition, the rainy season is about to end and it will rain less frequently, so we can survive in a tent for a few days.
The only drawback is the lack of a pot, otherwise there is no way to have a hot meal. Of course, if you have to, you can use the American helmet as a pot. But Zhang Dongliang thought it was a bit disgusting and never used it.
He would rather take a pot out of his small world than use a helmet worn by someone else as a pot, but he didn't take it because he was afraid of explaining it to the two of them.
When Zhang Dongliang was thinking about how to make a pot, Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu said they had already done it.
After Zhang Dongliang left yesterday, the two of them searched nearby and accidentally found a marching pot. It was unknown which unit had left it behind in a hurry during the emergency retreat.
Although it was a happy thing to find the iron pot, Zhang Dongliang still criticized them both seriously.
When I'm not around, they just need to stay at the campsite and not wander around, lest they run into traps or mines. Once they get too far away, it's very dangerous to run into trouble.
Faced with the concern from Brother Zhang, even the strong South Vietnamese female soldiers Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu felt warm in their hearts.
The so-called strong South Vietnamese female soldiers were fearless and brave, but that was a last resort. They were also women, who wouldn't want a warm harbor?
The South Vietnamese people suffered tremendously from the years of war, especially women who suffered even more.
Who doesn't want a stable life? So Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu really thought about it yesterday, and wanted to find a cave to live with Brother Zhang for the rest of their lives.
They could naturally hear the explosions on the battlefield yesterday, especially the sound of heavy artillery shells, which was earth-shaking.
They were worried all night, fearing that their hope of meeting Brother Zhang would be shattered again.
Fortunately, Brother Zhang came back the next morning. It turned out that Brother Zhang had gone deep into the battlefield to find food and clothes for them.
Zhang Dongliang's action this time elevated Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu both physically and spiritually. They were determined to follow Brother Zhang forever.
Today the sun was shining brightly and the weather was not too hot. A man and two women sat back to back chatting on the top of the mountain. They talked about the miserable past and imagined the future. It was a beautiful scene.
During the chat, Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu also talked about the reasons why South Vietnamese female soldiers were so fearless and brave.
Both the warring North and South and the Americans tortured the female prisoners extremely hard, and a quick death was a relief for them.
But once captured, it becomes a luxury for female soldiers to die and be freed as soon as possible.
Influenced by traditional Chinese culture, captured South Vietnamese women not only suffered inhuman torture, but also brought shame to their families.
In this situation where there was no way out, the South Vietnamese women could only choose to be fearless and die together with the enemy. This was originally a very helpless choice.
Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu asked Zhang Dongliang with longing: "Brother Zhang, where are you going to take us?"
Zhang Dongliang said without hesitation: "I am going to take you to Hong Kong Island. Are Lizhen and Caizhu willing to go?"
"Hong Kong Island?" Lin Lizhen opened her eyes wide in surprise.
Lin Lizhen's family is a scholarly family, so they naturally know Hong Kong Island. They also know that it is a prosperous big city, and they also know that Hong Kong Island is now in the hands of the Eagle people.
You will be absolutely safe in Hong Kong Island, it is an international metropolis.
After listening to Lin Lizhen's introduction to the situation in Hong Kong Island, Li Caizhu looked at Zhang Dongliang with wide eyes in surprise.
Zhang Dongliang smiled and nodded at them: "Yes, I am going to take you two to Hong Kong Island. Don't worry, I will definitely take you to Hong Kong Island. I want you to live a carefree life."
"As long as we can be with Brother Zhang, we can endure any kind of life." Being able to survive is Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu's biggest hope at the moment.
"That can't be possible. How can I let my woman live a hard life? Just rest assured."
I was hovering between life and death two days ago, and never dared to think about such a luxurious thing in the future, but today such great happiness fell on my head.
Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu were surprised and dragged Zhang Dongliang into the tent.
Zhang Dongliang smiled bitterly and said, "Don't delay, don't delay, let's talk about it tonight, let's talk about it tonight. I'm really exhausted now, my legs are weak."
