English Original
A fierce battle raged during the First World War. Guns thundered, with shells and bullets flying everywhere. After enduring this for an hour, one soldier decided the fighting had become too perilous. He left the front line and began retreating from the battle.
After walking for an hour, he saw an officer approaching. The officer stopped him and demanded, "Where are you going?"
"I'm trying to get as far away as possible from the battle behind us, sir," the soldier replied.
"Do you know who I am?" the officer said angrily. "I'm your commanding officer."
The soldier was astonished and exclaimed, "My God, I didn't know I was so far back already!"

“长官，我正试图尽可能远离我们身后的战斗，”士兵回答。
“你知道我是谁吗？”军官生气地说，“我是你的指挥官。”
士兵十分震惊，惊呼道：“天哪，我没想到我已经后撤这么远了！”
