Chapter 561: The Ultimate Mission
Xia Zhenyang rolled his eyes: "All you have in your head is tofu brains?" Even if there was a war here, it's been almost a year, what traces do you think can be left? While staying on guard. ”
Zhao Jiyong let out a dejected "oh", and pulled Cheng Zhichao, who was snickering non-stop, and didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. And Xia Zhenyang was not idle, looking for something in all directions.
Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong watched him while watching, and after a while, they didn't see him stop. Zhao Jiyong couldn't help it again, but this time he didn't dare to talk to Xia Zhenyang again, so he could only guess with Cheng Zhichao what Xia Zhenyang was looking for.
Xia Zhenyang searched for a while, but he didn't seem to find what he was looking for, and he was also puzzled, scratching the back of his head and walking to the two of them, and whispered, "Don't be vigilant, take a few steps forward." ”
The two answered, followed behind Xia Zhenyang, and continued to walk forward. Xia Zhenyang observed carefully as he walked, and after walking two or three hundred meters, he saw him say with a happy face: "It's here, fuck, I remembered it wrong just now." ”
Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong stopped and looked at the surrounding environment, only to see that there was still a small ridge in front of them, but this ridge was very different from just now, although it was also covered by wild grass, but if you look carefully, you can still see a little trace of man-made. At least the ridge had changed shape, revealing a gap three or four meters long, which seemed to be affected by external forces.
The expressions on Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong's faces became solemn, and there was no need for Xia Zhenyang to introduce them, the two of them also knew that under this ridge covered by wild grass, the bodies of two martyrs who died in battle were buried. After a few months of sleeping in a foreign country, he is finally going back to his hometown.
Xia Zhenyang walked under the ridge. Reaching out and stroking the weed-covered soil, he let out a long sigh, tears flashed in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Brother, homesick, don't worry." We're here to pick you up, and we'll be home soon. ”
Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong pretended not to see this sensational scene, and the two of them held the guns in their hands, and they spontaneously became vigilant.
Half an hour later, the people of the second echelon also rushed here under the leadership of Lei Qiyu, and the two groups of people met each other, and their strength was greatly enhanced. Lei Qiyu glanced at Xia Zhenyang, who was sitting under the ridge, and didn't say a word, just reached out and patted him on the shoulder. Then he determined the location and said to the soldiers of the third company who came with him: "This is it, dig it." ”
Those soldiers already knew that they were responsible for digging up the corpses and bringing them back before they came, and after receiving Lei Qiyu's instructions, they immediately took off the sapper shovels from their backs and excavated them. Cheng Zhichao, Zhao Jiyong and others wanted to see what the bodies of the two martyrs looked like, but Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu didn't give them this chance, and before the bodies were dug up, the people from the third echelon arrived. Wait until all the people are gathered. Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu asked Cheng Zhichao and others to stand by in place, waiting for Chen Yu's detachment. The two of them took Lu Zhuo, Fan Yuesheng and Qiao Wei with them. A total of five people continued to move forward.
This was a very unusual move, not only Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong felt confused, but even the three who were selected by them also felt very confused: "Didn't we say that our mission this time is to dig up the corpse and bring it back?" Why do you have to move forward? ”
Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu didn't answer everyone's questions, but just said strongly: "Obey the order!" ”
Questions can be had, and orders must be obeyed. After the five of them left, Zhao Jiyong walked to Cheng Zhichao's side with a worried face: "Chao'er." I feel that our mission is not simple at all. ”
"I don't need you to say it, I also feel it, obviously I have found the location where the body is buried, and it should be dug up and withdrawn. But the summer squad leader led the people forward again. It is clear that there are other intentions. ”
"I should have thought a long time ago, if it was just to dig up two corpses, why bother sending out three special operations detachments with great fanfare, and then adding the strength of one company. In my opinion, eighty percent is to meet those people again and avenge that arrow. ”
"This is too child's play, such an important task, you don't even talk to us in advance."
"Maybe we just don't know, everyone else should know. It is estimated that the leader is also afraid that we will carry out this big task for the first time, and if I am nervous, maybe something bad will happen. This is also out of love for us. ”
"He's not afraid that we'll get into trouble with others without knowing it?"
"Why don't you understand? The last time we went on a combat mission, none of us had a lot of thoughts in our hearts. But when the fight starts, can you be afraid? ”
Zhao Jiyong shook his head: "I really didn't care about it, I only cared about fighting at that time, where can I be afraid?" ”
"That's right, I can see it, that's what war is all about, before going to the battlefield, everyone has a little bit of that in their hearts. But as soon as the fight started, I couldn't think about anything. Team Xu is a veteran oilman, and the little thoughts in our hearts have already made him feel clear, so we will first create the established facts, so that we have no way out, and save ourselves from thinking nonsense before the fight starts. ”
"It's too bullying, we're the executors of the task, don't we even have the slightest right to know?"
"You only have the right to carry out orders, not the right to know. The so-called right to know is a privilege only enjoyed by senior leaders, and it is not a good thing for you and me to know too much. ”
"I want to work hard, I want to be self-reliant, and I want to enjoy the right to know." Zhao Jiyong clenched his hands into fists and said hatefully.
Before he could brew his love for self-improvement to the climax, Chen Yu arrived with a detachment of people. After a day and a night of rapid marching, the people in the detachment were also slightly tired, especially Chen Yu, whose eyes were even more bloodshot.
After finding them, all the members of the first detachment were obviously much more relaxed, Chen Yu looked at the soldiers of the third company who were busy and busy, and suddenly found that Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu were not found in the crowd, and couldn't help frowning, and beckoned Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong over: "Where is Xiao Xia?" ”
"The squad leader walked forward with a few people, leaving us to wait for you and listen to the instructions for the next step."
"He didn't say what to do?"
"Nope."
"Before leaving. Did you have anything to tell you? ”
"No, just let us wait for your instructions."
"This kid, this is really unreasonable, I told him a long time ago, and when I get to the place, I will explain to you the follow-up tasks of this operation. It's good for him to lead the people to run away first. Chen Yu snorted in annoyance, and asked again, "How long have you been here?" ”
"Looking at the progress of the work of the people of the third company, it can also be seen that we have been here for a while, and the squad leader has not come back, and we dare not act without authorization, so we have to be responsible for vigilance."
"Well, is there anything out of the ordinary?"
"No, it's normal."
Chen Yu groaned for a moment. said to Cheng Zhichao: "You go and call all the people in your third team, I have something to say to them." ”
Cheng Zhichao hurriedly called all the soldiers of the third detachment who were scattered in various places and were responsible for the vigilance, and the vigilance task was automatically taken over by the members of the first detachment. They are all veterans of jungle warfare, and as soon as the personnel are arranged, compared with Cheng Zhichao and them, they will make judgments. Cheng Zhichao and others thought that they had done well enough, but when they looked at the position chosen by others and the allocation of personnel, their faces were suddenly flushed.
These are all lessons learned over the years. It's not like you can master it completely after a few trainings, and it's not like you can understand what is going on by reading a few books. Chen Yu had already discovered their immaturity. But now is not the time to find fault. Besides, he is the captain of the first team, not the captain of the special combat team, even if he finds fault, it is not his turn to take care of the affairs of the third team.
After all the members of the third team gathered, Chen Yu whispered to them the ultimate task of this operation. When the crowd heard. There was an uproar, and it was only now that they knew that they were not going abroad this time to perform a simple mission, but a task like in an online game. is a chain quest.
Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong were much calmer than others, the two of them had long felt that there must be a follow-up to this mission, but they didn't expect that Chen Yu, who issued the task to them, was not Xia Zhenyang or Lei Qiyu.
But even if Chen Yu gave them an explanation of the ultimate task, it was not without reservations. Something that shouldn't have been made known to them, or didn't sue them. Therefore, including Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong, they only knew that they would be responsible for continuing to search forward to find out if those mercenaries were still here. At the same time, Chen Yu also repeatedly warned them that with their current combat strength, they were not enough to fight the mercenaries, and if they really ran into those people, they would resolutely retreat under the arrangement of Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu. In case the other party really bites them and doesn't let them go, then they can only fight and retreat. In a word, put your own safety first and try not to cause casualties.
This is a nice thing to say, but the third team is now facing a big problem, that is, Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu led people forward, no one knew where they were going, and it was not easy to find these five people. If they can't be found, then Cheng Zhichao and they should carry out the follow-up tasks?
Chen Yu obviously saw the thoughts of these people from the expressions on everyone's faces, and couldn't help but secretly annoyed that Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu were out of tune, such a big thing, how could the two of them leave a group of rookies in the forest, but they didn't know where to go?
He also knows that the current three-point team has not officially appointed the captain and vice captain, so the two veterans Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu are the core of the three-point team, and it is really a headache that the two of them are not there. Just as they were about to send Xiao Liu and other people who were good at jungle tracking to find the two of them back, Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu came back with Lu Zhuo and the others by themselves.
As soon as he saw the two of them, Chen Yu's face immediately sank, and regardless of his current identity as the captain of the first team, there was no reason to care about the affairs of the third team, so he roared in front of Cheng Zhichao and the others: "What are you two doing?" Throw so many new players here, and you're not afraid of something happening? ”
"Team Chen." Xia Zhenyang's helmet didn't know where a few blades of grass came from, and after Lei Qiyu saw it, he took off the blades of grass for him and explained: "We didn't go far, we just searched around here." I don't know where the guys we're watching this morning are now, and it would be bad if they popped up while we were working. ”
"Then you'll have to say it." Chen Yu was really angry, and he stared at him and roared again. finally sighed: "Forget it, I can't care so much about the affairs of your third team." Now the two of you are back. Let's look at the next steps. ”
Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu nodded, and the three of them walked to the side and discussed a few words in a whisper, and then Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu came over and called Cheng Zhichao and the others together.
The battle plan was drawn up a long time ago, and there were more than one of them, and different contingency plans were drawn up in response to various situations that arose. They discussed it with Chen Yu just now. It was just a matter of which plan to use, and there was not much disagreement among several people, so it took less than two minutes to choose the plan.
The members of the third team had already learned the content of the follow-up mission from Chen Yu, and Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu no longer had to explain to them. The two of them took out the veteran's qualifications and fooled the rookies in a very sincere tone, and they were only carrying out a very simple search mission, and the mission objectives were only two: first, to determine whether the person who was being targeted this morning was a member of the government army or a mercenary; 2. Determine whether the mercenaries are still in the area. If you meet the other side, you will immediately retreat, and you will have a detachment of people to meet them.
It doesn't sound like much danger. But Cheng Zhichao vaguely felt that the real situation was not the same thing at all, but he couldn't say why it was going on now.
With this uneasiness, Cheng Zhichao and the others embarked on the front road under the leadership of Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu, and when they just set off, there was a sudden commotion behind them, and a third-company soldier shouted in a low voice with surprise: "Found it, found it." Dig slowly. ”
Cheng Zhichao glanced back, and saw that Chen Yu had walked briskly to the bottom of the ridge. Bending down as if to be looking at something, the soldiers of the third company also stopped what they were doing, and stood aside and waited for him to finish the inspection and continue the construction.
After hearing this commotion, Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu's footsteps immediately paused, but this pause only lasted less than a second, and they continued to move forward. throughout the process. The two of them didn't even look back, but the heavy footsteps betrayed the excitement in their hearts.
Buried in the soil are the brothers of life and death who have lived and fought with them for several years, and now that the Si people are gone, the two of them still have to embark on an unknown journey. Just because their identity is PLA fighters. This kind of mood cannot even be described in words by Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong, who boast of having high enough education and rich knowledge. I can only secretly sigh in my heart, "Gentlemen, this is pure masters".
In the morning, I had already found that someone was watching, and no one knew whether my every move was under the supervision of someone with a heart, and if I continued to move forward, I would be closer and closer to the place where the last battle took place, and if those mercenaries didn't leave, they might run into them again at any time, so everyone's hearts were a little nervous. Even the two veterans, Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu, were in a heavy mood, but because the two of them were now leaders and couldn't show their timidity in front of the new team members, they tried their best to act as if nothing had happened.
The road ahead is still not easy to walk, Chen Yu has already conveyed Cheng Yanming's latest order to them, if there is no one who meets the other side, once the third division arrives at the last battle site, it will retreat back and will not continue to advance. In response to this situation, Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu adjusted the formation in time, and the two of them led Lu Zhuo and other three team members to still walk in the first echelon. The follow-up personnel, under the leadership of Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong, followed them, and the two echelons kept a distance of one mile, all ready to enter the battle at any time.
The advantage of this is that if you really encounter the enemy, you can also guarantee that you will not be made dumplings by the other party. Whether the front team or the rear team is attacked, the other echelon will react the fastest, either to support or to retreat with a broken wrist.
Regarding the decision of the two of them, Lu Zhuo and the others did not have too obvious resistance. They also know very well in their hearts that it's okay not to meet each other, but once they meet each other, it will be a scene of life and death. During the day today, Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong have been the vanguard for a day, and it is the turn of others. Among the newcomers in the third division, Lu Zhuo's comprehensive su zhì is relatively good, before joining the special brigade, he has already received training in the Marine Corps for a long time, and he has more experience than others, and he is definitely the best candidate for a vanguard.
In fact, in the hearts of Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong, they still hope that they can continue to act as vanguards, and at this critical juncture, the patriotic education they have received since childhood has played a great role. The task of the vanguard is undoubtedly the most dangerous, and the glorious image of the heroes who began to come into contact with them when they were literate is still influencing them until now, since there is the most dangerous task, the two of them subconsciously want to fight for it.
This kind of behavior, after more than ten years of edification, has almost become their subconscious instinctive behavior. However, Xia Zhenyang and Lei Qiyu did not agree to their initiative to ask for battle, and ordered the two of them to stay in the second echelon in an unquestionable tone, and at the same time warned the other team members not to refuse to carry out the orders of the two of them because they were compulsory soldiers, the real ability has nothing to do with the rank.
