Chapter 1693: 1694 letters from home are worth ten thousand yuan
Chapter 1693 1694 A letter from home is worth ten thousand gold
"Is there anyone from Refeng Port? Their household registration is from Refeng Port!" A Tang officer asked loudly as he walked past the group of working Elf captives.
No one answered his question, because no one knew what kind of results would come from answering such a question. Maybe the other party just suffered a big loss in Refeng Port and was planning to catch a few unlucky people in Refeng Port and kill them for revenge.
In fact, many people know that Tang State has occupied Refeng Port, but if the Tang army was attacked by civilians in Refeng Port and many people died... it is not completely impossible for this kind of thing to happen.
So everyone kept their mouths shut based on the idea that doing more is worse than doing less. It's okay not to admit it anyway, it's an excellent habit for a prisoner to save his life.
"Isn't there anyone? We have opened the transportation line to Rewind Port, so we are going to let you take some family letters back to tell your family that they are safe! It is not a bad thing! I ask again, is there anyone at home who is From Refeng Port?" The Tang officer explained impatiently.
He told the truth. In fact, the security situation in Rewind Port was very good, and not many elves chose to fight to the death. After all, Datang Group has a mass base here, and many people still remember the prosperity and stability that Datang Group brought here ten years ago.
Tiger also hopes to use this method to gather the hearts of the people in Rewind Port more quickly, so that his 1st Army can rely on the port to obtain more and more stable supplies.
Marvin stood in the crowd and really wanted to raise his hand and say that he was from Rewind Port, but before he could speak, another elf prisoner held down his wrist.
The other party quietly shook his head and lowered his voice and said: "Don't listen to their nonsense. How can there be such a good thing? There is still a chance to write letters to prisoners of war... Maybe it is some kind of conspiracy. Let's wait and see."
What he said made sense, and Marvin was a little shaken again. He really wanted to send news to his mother that he was still alive, but unfortunately he couldn't do such a thing because of the war.
Now, when he heard that the environment in Refeng Port had stabilized, he immediately became extremely anxious. He really wanted to report peace to his family, because no matter in what era, when the war rages for three months, a letter from home can be worth ten thousand yuan. gold.
“Forget it, maybe none of these people really live in Rewind Port.” The adjutant who followed the officer advised with some regret.
The Tang officer also felt that he was wasting his time. These people could write if they wanted to, but if they didn't want to, they wouldn't. Who the **** did they care?
Anyway, these prisoners have to work non-stop. If they keep working like this, no matter how hard it is, roads or pipelines will be repaired back to Rewind Port. After working all the way there, you naturally believe in everything, right?
Cursing his mother in his heart, the Tang officer walked past the elf captives who seemed to have gained a lot of strength even though they worked ten hours a day: "I don't know what is good and what is good, I can think whatever I want... I don't know that after this time, Wait until the next opportunity comes.”
For him, this is really just a pure welfare. Since these prisoners don't want them, there is no need for him to stand here.
Seeing him turn around and leave, Marvin became a little anxious. He actually didn't dare to raise his hand to announce his home, but he really wanted to know about his mother's safety.
So when the Tang officer was about to walk away, he broke away from his companion's arm, raised his arm and shouted loudly: "I...I am from Refeng Port!" After shouting this sentence, he regretted it a little bit. , human beings are such animals. He thought of another possibility. Perhaps the Tang people wanted to use this method to find the families of the elf soldiers who joined the army, and then take revenge with the families and prisoners.
The Tang officer who had walked far away stopped and turned back to look at Marvin, who had his arms raised and did not dare to put them down. A Tang Army soldier with an assault rifle pushed aside the crowd, walked over and pulled Marvin onto the roadbed, and came to the front of the Tang Army officer.
“Sir!” The soldier saluted with a military salute and then retreated. The Tang officer looked Marvin up and down, with a scary smile on his face.
Just when Marvin was about to wet his pants, the officer spoke: "Can you write?"
"I...I...I can write, write some words." Marvin still knew a few words, and he could write a few simple sentences himself. The previous letter home was also written by himself, although it only contained a few simple greetings.
"Don't be nervous. If you don't know how to write, we have civilian staff who specialize in ghostwriting." The Tang officer patted Marvin on the shoulder: "Yes, the young man is very courageous and deserves encouragement. Who...help him write the letter, Give him some extra food at night."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the soldiers guarding the prisoners: "Take good care of him and take care of him. Don't let those ignorant **** cause trouble for him."
"Yes!" The soldier immediately saluted. The major in front of him had to be careful even when meeting their squad leader. Naturally, he didn't dare to have the slightest intention to deal with it.
Marvin was taken into a tent and then found a table to sit down and start writing his home letter. In fact, his cultural level is limited, and what he wrote is nothing more than those few sentences that make people laugh or cry, but every word is worth a thousand dollars: I am fine, I am still alive, don’t worry...
“Need help?” When Marvin raised his head, he saw a beautiful elf girl. He was stunned for a moment, and then his whole body became nervous.
The other party was also wearing an elf military uniform, and he looked like a civilian non-commissioned officer who used to work in the headquarters. Marvin, a noncommissioned officer like this, would never see him on a normal day, and in a place full of men, how could he not be nervous when he saw such a beautiful girl.
“Uh, me.” Marvin stuttered a little, but the elf girl seemed very familiar to her. She showed a sweet smile, which made Marvin feel like she was a goddess.
"I am a civilian at the 3rd Army Headquarters. I was captured later. I used to help in the hospital, but now I am transferred here to write letters to the prisoners." The girl introduced herself: "My name is Cindy. you are happy."
The female officers who come in and out of the headquarters are naturally of a certain standard. They are naturally overqualified to deal with a big-headed soldier like Marvin. In just two minutes, Marvin almost felt that he had found love.
However, he still did not forget his original intention of sitting here. Finally, with the help of Cindy, he completed a decent-looking letter home to report that he was safe.
