119. What is a compatriot
"What's wrong?" Another lieutenant with Sun Xiangyu asked.
"The battlefield has been extended, the station has been hit by several shells, there have been casualties, and the superiors have asked us to immediately reinforce and ensure the safe evacuation of civilians in the area under our jurisdiction!" Sun Xiangyu said in a deep voice.
Someone looked out of the car and saw the group of soldiers who had just boarded the plane, and they all came down again.
Lu Zhimin's face darkened when he heard this, and he turned his head to look at Tang Brick, thinking that this is not only a rookie, but also a crow's mouth, what is it about!
The enemy has already hit the door, and no matter what the reason, you must first fight back to ensure your own safety.
The military vehicle roared away from the airport and headed for the station.
Along the way, they heard the sound of artillery several times, and their heads circled back and forth on the plane, and it was not clear which one it was.
These voices put a lot of pressure on the soldiers. It is the first time that they have encountered a formal battle since they participated in peacekeeping, and it is absolutely a lie to say that they are not nervous or afraid.
Several of the younger ones were shivering.
In fact, Sun Xiangyu is also very uneasy, this country is not too big, but it is rich in real estate resources and has great strategic value. So all along, it's been very unstable, and people come over to do things when there's nothing to do.
However, those troops who fought indiscriminately did not dare to compete with China, and the peacekeeping troops have been stationed for nearly ten years, and there has never been any chaos, and the number of shots fired is only a handful.
Judging from the contents of the satellite phone just now, the artillery fire this time was not accidental, but the battlefield really extended to the rear. Most of the country is involved, and it is no longer a simple local war.
It's hard enough to be on your own.
At present, the station has sent a message for help to the naval warships far away from here, but until the reinforcements arrive, everything will have to be on its own.
The military vehicles in the rear also caught up, and several military vehicles roared forward, and soon after, the station was in sight.
At this time, it has been counted as entering the war zone, and many fleeing people can be seen running wildly along the way.
Before they could reach the station, a missile was fired head-on, and the military vehicle next to it was immediately blown up. The tires of the car in which Tang Brick was riding also burst immediately, and it crashed into the private house on the side of the road crookedly.
Sun Xiangyu finally stabilized his figure, and immediately shouted: "Get out of the car and enter the battle state!" ”
The lieutenant next to him coughed a few times and added: "No shots are allowed without my orders!" ”
Sun Xiangyu looked at him and did not refute. It is an iron law of the army not to shoot without authorization, and no matter what we do, we must be justified!
If others don't do it, we can't do it either!
Many soldiers got out of the car and ran out of the civilian houses, only to see two military vehicles following closely, one of which was burning. Several soldiers were wrapped in flames, wailing in pain, and some were bringing linen and clothes to help extinguish the flames.
However, gasoline is so easy to extinguish, and in the distance, there is the whistling sound of cannonballs.
Sun Xiangyu immediately shouted: "Enemy attack!" Lie down! ”
As soon as the words fell, the shells fell next to the soldiers who were on fire. The loud rumbling sound, the eardrums of the people who shook the people hurt, and the consciousness was a little unclear. And those soldiers have lost their lives.
"Damn it!" Sun Xiangyu angrily hammered down the wall, and the eyes of the other soldiers were also red.
A comrade-in-arms died tragically in front of his eyes, who can not be angry?
The two soldiers, with less than half of the survivors, quickly converged, and as the only military commander, Sun Xiangyu had to lead the personnel to continue advancing when the commander of the other peacekeeping force had already died.
He tried to call the station, but no one answered, and he didn't know if the line was blown up or something else.
But in any case, since the station's last request was to request support, they had to go.
The extended artillery fire made the journey very difficult, with craters and collapsed buildings everywhere. The roads that used to be smooth have now become very congested, and many cars parked nearby are like crayfish.
Tang Brick had never experienced war, and he had never seen such a miserable scene.
I thought it was a simple peacekeeping station, but I didn't expect that the first time I came, I would encounter such a big scene.
There was a whole carload of soldiers, at least dozens of people, and they were gone if they said no.
When Sun Xiangyu led people to the station, he didn't say any words of mobilization, just a simple sentence: "The target station, all go forward!" ”
Everyone didn't say a word, and followed him away, which made Tang Brick very unaccustomed.
In his opinion, these people should hesitate, or rather, think about it. In such artillery fire, even he didn't dare to guarantee his safety, what could these ordinary people do?
If you get blown up while walking on the road, this life will come to an end.
However, no one hesitated, and the people who were so scared that they trembled were still shaking now. But Tang Brick could see that they were trembling now, not because of fear, but because of anger, the anger of revenge!
These people are full of blood, brave and fearless, and they are the spirit rarely seen in the red dust.
Vaguely, he suddenly understood why he had come here.
Not for peacekeeping, but to witness the existence of something so as not to lose faith in the world too soon.
The place where the military vehicle was destroyed was not far from the station, and after a rapid march, Sun Xiangyu finally led people back to the station.
At this time, the station is completely different from when you left.
There were traces of gunsmoke everywhere, sparks shining everywhere, and from time to time you could see dead bodies crawling on the ground.
Sun Xiangyu hurriedly ran over, grabbed a soldier who was busy carrying the corpse, and asked sharply, "What the hell is going on!" ”
"I, I don't know......" The soldier seemed to have just cried, like a flower-faced cat, blood and ash stained together, looking a little funny.
But who would dare to say that he was funny, just looking at him crying while carrying the corpses of his comrades, no one would say this.
"Obey my orders, the first and second teams will take up the guard duty, and the others will immediately help collect the bodies of their comrades. Remember! Even a finger is going to get it back! Sun Xiangyu yelled with red eyes, and then ran to the depths of the station, looking for the leader who was still alive.
The soldiers immediately did as he was told, and Tang Brick was not idle, stretching out his two hands, grabbing the two corpses and picking them up, walking towards a room dedicated to storing corpses.
However, as soon as he took two steps, he was grabbed by someone. It was a young soldier, probably not as big as a brick.
Like an angry tiger, he glared at Tang Brick fiercely: "What are you doing!" ”
Tang Brick looked down and replied, "Help move the corpse." ”
"Can't you show them a little respect! Let me go! If that's the way it goes, I'd rather let them go out into the wilderness! The young soldier vigorously broke Tang Brick's hand, then beckoned to another person, and carefully carried the body into the house.
Tang Brick was stunned, turned his head and looked around, and found that everyone seemed to be doing this.
They were even more careful than they were with the living, for fear of damaging any more places.
This is another place that puzzles Tang Brick, people are dead, why do you still do this kind of thing that wastes time and reduces efficiency? Getting the body back as quickly as possible should be the most important thing, right?
However, no one here seems to have thought of this.
Everyone's attitude was almost the same, Tang Brick looked at it, and was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
He turned his head and saw Lu Zhimin standing behind him.
The squad leader of the cooking class seemed to understand Tang Brick's doubts and asked, "Do you think it's a waste of time for us to do this?" ”
Tang Brick hesitated, but finally nodded and said, "The cannonball is flying on the head, so it is easy to delay time and increase the danger." ”
"Did you know that in previous battles, in order to recapture the corpse of a teammate, our army often sacrificed several or even a dozen people? Such an act is extremely stupid from any point of view. Lu Zhimin said: "But do you know why those fools still insist on it? ”
Tang Brick shook his head, if he knew, he wouldn't have stood here in a daze.
"Because there are some things that you don't think about with your brain. People do not live in this world for the sake of reason. Lu Zhimin looked down at his blood-stained hands and said, "Although they are not brothers, they are not relatives, and they are probably not friends." However, we are all from the same place. If one day, you understand the meaning of the word compatriot, there will be no more such doubts. ”
With that, Lu Zhimin walked away from the side, and the other person searched around for the scattered stumps.
Tang Brick looked at his busy back, and the confusion in his eyes was still very strong.
Compatriot......
He was born as an orphan, wandered since he was a child, and is used to seeing the deceit of the world.
In Tang Brick's heart, the world is either ignorant or treacherous, and there is no so-called distinction between good people and bad people. If someone wants to kill you and you kill him with your backhand, are you still a bad person?
You think others are bad, just because you can't beat him, you can't fool him.
So, at that time, he never felt like he belonged to any group.
All people are available to him, and they are all resources given to him by this world. And the only use of these resources is to keep themselves alive.
It wasn't until he fell off a cliff and came to the fairyland-like mountain that his mind changed slightly.
However, Tang Brick still didn't feel that the world had changed, his thoughts were only changed for the fairy master, and for others, as always.
What is a compatriot, Tang Brick really does not have this concept.
Just like in Zhan Xiangyu's heart, he divides people into those who can be killed and those who can't be killed.
Then in Tang Brick's heart, he can get married, and he can be bullied casually.
What are compatriots?
When he suddenly mentioned this word, he was even a little unfamiliar in his heart, and he couldn't think of how to write these two words.
The more I think about it, the more vague it becomes.
It's just that when he saw a soldier crying bitterly because he accidentally touched the head of the corpse, causing the corpse's eyes that had almost fallen off to fall to the ground, and apologized repeatedly, Tang Brick suddenly felt that there was an indescribable emotion brewing in his heart.
