Chapter 54
The sweat had soaked the 'bed' sheets, and the two of them were finally able to stop and quietly experience the laziness after ***.
"I wanted you to take a break, but it looks like I've made you more tired."
Luo 'Men' put Jiang Manyun's hand to his mouth and kissed it.
"Looks like you're tired too." Jiang Manyun buried his head in the crook of his arm in satisfaction. "Now you want to tell me something?"
What should come will always come, and you can't run away from problems forever. Ro'mon turned to look at her.
"Don't you think it's a bit of a shame to talk about this now?"
"You have something to hide from me, so it's called the scenery." Jiang Manyun suddenly fell on top of him. "I haven't asked you what happened until now, so to be fair, you should tell me about your gunshot wound now."
Ro'men smiled. "I can't tell you what's going on, I can only tell you that I'm not really retired, I'm still a soldier, and I'm still on some secret mission."
Jiang Manyun didn't speak for a long time, but her expression slowly froze on her face.
"What do you mean you're still a soldier? Isn't Unit 128 already disbanded? ”
Ro'mon looked her in the eye.
"Someone like me can never really leave the military, that's what it means."
Jiang Manyun looked disappointed and slowly sat up from his side.
"So if you're telling me this now, does that mean you've made a decision? Now you're ready to retire for real? ”
"There's nothing really decommissioning, but I can leave those most dangerous places. There are all kinds of 'sexual' jobs, even in secret work, and I can choose a job that will keep us together as much as possible. "Rommon said what he really wanted." I have some savings, not much, but definitely at least to make your parents feel comfortable 'handing' you over to me. ”
Jiang Manyun combed her hair with her hands, and her mood suddenly dropped.
"It's not a question of position, it's not a question of money. This is the problem of our lives. When you were demobilized, I thought you were really out of the army and we didn't have to do anything with this secret work anymore, so I decided to stay with you. But now you're telling me you're still doing the same job you used to? ”
"It's my job, it's my duty, and I've never left." Luo 'Gate' suddenly felt bad. He always thought that Jiang Manyun had the same feelings for the troops as him, but now he found that this might just be his wishful thinking. "Of course, those practices are just hoping that people will think I've left the job."
Jiang Manyun gently stroked the scars on his body. These scars were all obtained by him in those "secret work", and many of them were dealt with by Jiang Manyun himself, so she knew what kind of danger Luo 'Men' had faced, these scars had surprised her and reveled in Luo 'Men's courage, but now these things were so terrible in her eyes, and she never wanted another place on his body.
"Well, this may be the kind of secret world of yours, I don't know and don't want to figure it out, so what are your plans now?"
"I still have some work on my hands, and when that's done, I'll step back from the front line, and it won't take much time." Ro'mon tried his best to make his tone sound light-hearted. "If you'll give me some time."
Jiang Manyun looked at Luo 'Men'. "How do you give you time?"
"For example, we all have to stay incognito for a while, and we may even need to leave the city." Luo 'Men' reached out and stroked Jiang Manyun's cheek. "Then we won't have to be apart again."
Jiang Manyun avoided his hand unnaturally, slowly sat down beside him, and slowly put his chin on ***'s knee.
"How long does it take?"
"If all goes well, one year is enough." Luo 'Men' lied, it would take longer to leave his current job, even if everything could go well, but this time was arranged for Jiang Manyun.
"What about my parents? What about my job? ”
"I'll take care of it. Rest assured, we still have a long way to go, even if we waste some time on this. Ro'mon gently stroked her smooth back. I promise I'll make amends. ”
Jiang Manyun turned to look at him, and Luo 'Men' found that her eyes were red again.
"Is everything you say true?"
"There may be some factors that I haven't taken into account, but I'm sure it's 90 percent true." Ro' smiled. "But don't worry about the 10 percent, we can get the 90 percent and we can get the 10 percent."
But 10 percent is often the hardest part, isn't it? Although I don't know what your secret work is, I'm not a village girl who has never seen the world, so don't try to lie to me. Jiang Manyun glanced at him dissatisfied. A person who treats everyone else as an idiot is an idiot himself. ”
"How dare I take the doctor for an idiot." Romen also sat up and took her in his arms. "You take a few days off, stay in this hotel and wait until I come back."
Jiang Manyun looked at him in surprise. "You're leaving now?"
Ro'Gate nodded. "I still have to do my best until I actually leave my job."
Jiang Manyun pushed him away. "Then why am I waiting for you here? I still have a job, I have patients, and I have to go to work. I tell you, Romon, you should never think that I am a wife who will only wait for her husband to come home. ”
Jiang Manyun was still a little angry. Obviously, for her, life has changed dramatically, and she needs time to digest all this, Luo 'Men' had long expected Jiang Manyun to have such a reaction. Jiang Manyun is an assertive person, and it is not so easy to convince her, and she does not understand the content and meaning of secret work, so it will take her time to get used to it.
For the time being, though, she doesn't pose a real danger, and Rommon can be sure of that.
When he left, Jiang Manyun still seemed a little worried.
I took the fastest flight to Lanzhou, and in a secret base, Luo 'Men' met ACE and Ma Xibei.
No one asked him what had happened in Paris, and now there were more important things to do. With little rest, they boarded another plane that flew directly to Afghanistan. On the plane, a secret messenger from the General Staff briefed them on the mission, and Romen learned about what was happening in Afghanistan. Sensitive military supplies are always the highest level of secrecy, and they don't need to know what they are, they just need to know what to do with them.
The secret messenger of the General Staff was named Sun Guo, who appeared to be an active-duty soldier, because he also carried his own American-style special warfare equipment, and Luo 'Men' noticed that he had an AK-74 rifle in his equipment.
"Nothing strange." The swarthy Sun Guo smiled at Luo 'Men'. "It's a big operation, and everybody is going to fight."
Luo 'Men' nodded knowingly. Sun Guo doesn't look like a person sitting in the office, which can be seen from his demeanor and speech.
"You've been in Afghanistan before? I think you are the head of the Afghan intelligence station. ”
Sun Guo looked at Luo 'Men' with a little surprise.
"You guessed?"
Ro'men smiled.
"There is no need to guess, if it is a big operation in Afghanistan, then the local intelligence personnel must be in charge of the entire operation. In such a short period of time, they can only send those directly responsible. ”
"I am indeed the person in charge, but I have been ordered to cooperate with your actions." Sun Guo smiled and looked at Luo 'Men'. "To be honest, I don't understand how to give someone a hand on our turf. But that's what he *** ordered, what can you say? ”
Ro' smiled.
"You can say, 'Guys, it's all 'handed over to you, I'm going to get a good night'."
"I appreciate your confidence, but let the facts speak for themselves." Sun Guo closed the military notebook in his hand. "What questions do you have about the mission briefing?"
"The above hasn't decided what to do with this batch of military supplies?" Ro'mon squinted.
"It depends on the situation on the ground and your opinion. The supplies are still in the local intelligence station, and in the worst case scenario, they will be destroyed on the spot, but the higher authorities prefer to continue escorting the supplies to the border and make this decision their first choice. Sun Guo pointed to a certain point on the military map. If you transport by car, you can reach the border in a few hours, which is a huge attraction to the above, although there are still many troubles to solve when you get to the border. ”
"Can this transport plane wait at the temporary landing site?" Ro'Gate studied the map.
"In principle, the crew will not take us back again, but if the Americans are not alarmed, they can stay at the temporary landing place for several hours." Sun Guo looked at Luo 'Men' suspiciously. "You don't have the idea of hitting this plane, we have studied it, even if we can transfer the supplies to this plane, the Americans have a hundred ways to shoot it down again."
"It's just a matter of using all the resources available." Ro'mon' didn't take his eyes off the map. "My experience in Afghanistan is to use everything you have at your disposal so that you have a better chance of success."
The corners of Sun Guo's mouth 'revealed' an approving smile.
"That's right, that's what our people said over there. Generally speaking, people can do whatever they want in Afghanistan, but it's not easy to really do anything, you have to use all the resources at your disposal. It seems that you have really been to Afghanistan, so to speak, you are not those damn laymen. ”
"You've got to tell your buddies these things." Luo 'Men' looked up at Sun Guo and squeezed his eyes at him. "I've heard that after a long time there, anyone can become as aggressive and irritable as the locals, and I want them to cooperate with me when needed."
"You're right, but I don't know to what extent my orders will work." Sun Guo stuffed the map to Luo 'Men'. "These brothers are used to being arbitrary, and one or two have been there for almost ten years, so I, the person in charge, is very much a showman, and you really have to come up with something convincing to get them to do your bidding."
Amid the roar of the aircraft engine, the two men ended the 'exchange' conversation and went to make preparations before landing.
Watching Sun Guo walk to the cabin in front, ACE put down the engine cover of the jeep and sat in front of Luo 'Men'.
"The General Staff has already sent a rapid reaction force of twenty people, why do you want us to follow up?"
"That's because they don't think it's safe enough to have this rapid reaction force." Ro' smiled. "Guess what these military supplies are? If it falls into the hands of the Americans, what kind of foreign 'diplomatic relations' will it cause? ”
"There are individual anti-aircraft missiles in the jeep, which means that we may have to fight the Americans head-to-head." ACE GAVE A THUMBS UP BEHIND HIM. "The fast reaction forces are more professional than us in this kind of fighting, so I am afraid that the main task will not fall on us. What do you think? “
"Intelligence says that the Americans' 16th Special Service Wing will definitely participate." Ro'mon looked at him. "We have the opportunity to settle the account with them in Pakistan, and we will follow up on that as well. I don't care what the plan is, when I get there, I have to do what I want, that's the point. ”
"It's a real big scene." ACE looked at Ro' 'Gate' solemnly. "But like you, I only think about revenge for the 'spider', 'sand scorpion' and 'praying mantis', so whatever you decide, count me as one."
The eyes of the two men invariably turned to Ma Xibei, who was curled up next to the jeep and sleeping. The sunset is falling from the tail of the plane to the ground, and the metal skeletons and equipment in the cabin seem to be 'covered' with red flannel, with a kind of 'hairy' and terrifying 'gorgeous'.
ACE smiled self-deprecatingly.
"There are only three of us left in the team, who are you going to treat as outsiders at this time?"
", there has been no A-team for a long time." There was a chilling coldness in Luo Men's eyes. "There's been no A-team since Operation Thunder, and the three of us are just the wretched creatures who survived. No matter what we do next, we can't be in the name of Team A anymore. ”
ACE was silent for a few moments before looking up at Ro'mon.
"And what are we for?"
"For the sake of faith." Ro' closed his eyes and held his M-14 in his arms. "For what you believe in."
