In the bumpy battlefield taxi, Zack and Toothless Angus were crowded on the door seat, whispering the whole time.

The other soldiers in the carriage were also talking and laughing. In contrast, Li Youfu, who was sitting next to Wei Ran, was wiping the cameras around his neck with a suede cloth the size of a towel.

fuselage.

"Can you give me a piece?" Wei Ran, who was speechless, pointed to the piece of suede in the other person's hand.

Hearing this, Li Youfu bent down and pulled out an M7 bayonet from the side of his trouser leg, and motioned to Wei Ran to help open the suede and split it in two from the middle.

Taking one of the suede pieces, Wei Ran wiped the two cameras hanging around his neck and asked, "Troye, you don't seem afraid."

"I have followed Mr. Zach to the front lines many times this year."

After Li Youfu finished speaking, he stopped what he was doing, took out a pack of Marlboros, tore them open, popped one out and handed it to Wei Ran, and then lit one himself, "But it's just that I'm not scared anymore, I'm still nervous.

, my hands would shake, and there were times when I couldn’t even hold the camera steady, and the photos I took were all blurry.”

"What about before this?"

Wei Ran asked in a puff of smoke, "I mean, what were you doing in the restaurant before it became harder to come back?"

“Back is a very accurate word.”

Li Youfu smiled and said, "Before I was hired by Mr. Zach, I was responsible for carrying, washing vegetables, and killing fish and chickens in a restaurant in Chinatown."

Just a handyman?

While Wei Ran accurately defined Li Youfu's last job, he heard him continue, "Every day before dawn, we have to go with him to purchase ingredients, then load and unload the truck, and then wash and slaughter immediately after returning."

“Sounds like a lot of hard work.”

“It’s really hard work”

Li Youfu smiled and said, "But the people in that restaurant are very nice, so my mother and I can fill our stomachs and have a place to live. Originally, I only had to work for another year and then I could start learning cooking.

The owner of the restaurant promised me.”

"and you..."

"As I said before, Mr. Zak offered me a reward that I couldn't refuse." Li Youfu replied matter-of-factly.

"I know, what I want to say is, how did you meet Zach?" Wei Ran asked casually.

"It was the owner of the restaurant who recommended me to Mr. Zach."

Li Youfu started wiping the camera again, "Mr. Zak often goes to that restaurant to eat. Of course, these are what Mr. Zak told me later."

"It can be seen that you are already qualified for the job of photographer."

"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment"

Li Youfu obviously did not take Wei Ran's praise seriously, but said seriously but self-deprecatingly, "Mr. Zach has very high requirements for photos, but no matter what, at least the photos I took can be sold for 5 US dollars each.

My mother is very proud of this, of course, provided she doesn’t know what kind of photos I took.”

Are you secretly making a welfare machine without telling your parents? A camera machine?

Wei Ran was secretly thinking about it with great joy, but he followed the topic and asked a question that could last for a long time, "Troyer, what are your plans after the war is over?"

"Not ready yet"

Li Youfu looked at the half-frame camera in his hand, and said naturally but with a trace of distress and hesitation, "But I will definitely not work in a restaurant. I may become a photographer, but Zach

My husband said that I don’t have enough aesthetics and may not have any talent as a photographer.”

"Your photos can already be sold for 5 dollars each," Wei Ran reminded in a joking tone.

"Come on," Li Youfu shook his head in confusion, "We all know what kind of photo it is, so how do we count..."

"Although you do not have the talent to be a photographer, it does not affect your ability to become a photographer."

It was Zach who was sitting across from him who said this, "Troyer, you don't just have to be a photographer to be a photographer. Or rather, you don't have to have talent to be a photographer.

Photos of girls without clothes are photos, just like photos taken with a half-frame camera are photos.”

"It just depends on whether you want to press the shutter or not," Wei Ran added subconsciously.

"Victor is right."

Zach snapped his fingers, "Whether you can become a photographer depends on whether you want to press the shutter."

"So I can become a photographer in the future?" Troyer asked excitedly.

"sure"

The person who answered this question was a white soldier in the carriage who held six photos in his hand, "Troyer, let me say, there is nothing wrong with these photos. What we need now is this kind of photo that can soothe the soul.

The pictures of the eyes and dick are not the pictures of the exhibitionist president’s dick in various angles in the newspapers.”

"If Troyer can take a picture of that rude red-necked dick with dwarfism in the future, he will definitely become a celebrity."

Another black man in the carriage followed suit and said, "I'm afraid Mr. Johnson's dick is not as big as mine when it's time to rest."

Not surprisingly, as soon as these words came out, the sweltering compartment immediately burst into laughter. The original topic about the photographer also turned collectively. Everyone happily discussed the beloved Mr. President and the old man who took out his clothes for fun from time to time.

two.

"Having said all that, who knows how long it will take for us to arrive?" Zach took the cigarette that Wei Ran separated from him, lit it, took a deep puff and asked loudly.

"It's not far away. There is a crashed helicopter in front of us. When we saw it, we were only half an hour's drive away from the camp."

The soldier driving the armored vehicle loudly replied, "Whitey, let good guy Zach get some air!"

"Zach, come to me."

The black soldier who was responsible for operating the machine gun on the roof of the car was about to retract his body into the car as he spoke. Even Zach had already bent down and stood up, preparing to change positions with the other man.

"boom!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At this moment, there was a violent explosion outside the car. Before everyone could react, the black soldier who was about to give up his position to Zach also

Chu sneaked into the cabin - his temple had been hit by a bullet!

"boom!"

A second explosion followed, and the armored vehicle stopped. Fortunately, the explosion did not come from their vehicle.

"Machine gunner! I need machine gun suppression!"

While the driver opened the tail hatch, he pushed the lever behind the seat, causing the seat to drop sharply. He also retracted his upper body that had been leaning out of the hatch.

Before the tail hatch was fully opened, Toothless Angus was the first one to rush out with a fire extinguisher in hand, followed closely by Zach, Wei Ran and Li Youfu, who also protected the fire extinguishers hanging around their necks with their hands.

The camera ran away.

At the same time, the machine gun on the roof also started roaring. Wei Ran, who ran out of the hatch, also saw at a glance the M113 armored vehicle at the end of the team that was suspected to have been attacked by an RPG and caught fire near the cab, as well as several people struggling to climb out of it.

The soldiers, and of course Angus, who was using a fire extinguisher to help put out the fire.

"Hidden! Hidden!"

Wei Ran screamed at Zach, who had already raised his camera, and forced him and Li Youfu, who was protecting the camera with his hands, to hide on the side of the armored vehicle and lay down on the roadside.

Only then did he have time to look at the surrounding environment, which was an arc-shaped muddy road that divided paddy fields and lakes.

The water in the paddy field on the left has been drained and the rice has been harvested, leaving only piles of straw piles like grave bags.

In the middle of these straw piles, there is the wreckage of a Choctaw helicopter stuck head-down in the paddy field. It has been burned and only the mottled frame is left.

The lake on the right side of this road is not very big, but it is thirty or forty meters wide and a hundred or ten meters long.

After the round of head-and-tail cuts just now, the convoy was almost trapped on the winding muddy road between the paddy fields and the lake, unable to move forward or retreat, and could only withstand the intensive firepower coming from the opposite side of the lake!

While he was observing, more and more soldiers got out of the armored vehicles and began to fight back with machine guns and other firepower. Zach, who was lying on the ground, also raised the camera again, without caring about life and death, and pressed the shutter repeatedly.

Not only him, but also Li Youfu, while helping Zach change the film on the camera after taking pictures, he would raise his half-frame camera from time to time and take a photo of the soldiers around him.

Seeing this, Wei Ran didn't bother to worry about their safety anymore. He also picked up the Minolta camera hanging around his neck, first pointed the lens at the wreckage of the helicopter in the paddy field and pressed the shutter.

At this moment, Angus had also thrown away the used fire extinguisher, picked up a surviving wounded soldier from the burning armored vehicle at the end of the team, placed him on the untouched side, and hurriedly bandaged him.

After that, he got into the burning armored vehicle at the end of the team again.

Before he could come out, a white soldier rushed over and helped him take out the second wounded person. By the way, he and Angus also froze his figure in the second photo taken by Wei Ran.

inside.

Looking at the two people who rushed in again, Wei Ran couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He had just recognized that the last time these two people cooperated so well and allowed him to take a group photo, it was the labor dancer.

Just as he was sighing secretly, the two men were hit by the bullets and fell to the side of the road together with the wounded they were carrying.

After looking at the camera in his hand, Wei Ran finally ran over after a brief hesitation, grabbed one by one with one hand, and dragged them into the shooting blind spot provided by the armored vehicle.

After a quick check, Wei Ran couldn't help but sigh secretly. The white man who was working with Angus was shot in the upper back of his back. Not only was he hit in the spine, but he may have also injured his lungs.

Obviously he won't survive.

In contrast, Angus was extraordinarily lucky. The shot just now hit the medical bag he was carrying, and after passing through the medical bag, the M79 grenade launcher gun he was carrying was even more thrilling.

Tuo stopped him.

But correspondingly, he was hit hard on the butt by the butt of a gun.

"Did I get shot in the butt?" Angus asked slightly panicked.
