Chapter 573: That Old Fellow

Hou Dasheng closed his eyes, and the whole person leaned peacefully on the seat in the car and closed his eyes to recuperate. The hound was right across from him, holding the gun in his hand quietly with his head bowed and not saying a word. At this time, his headphones vibrated slightly, and the hound pressed them lightly.

Immediately, his brow furrowed. He was silent for a while, but he still raised his hand and pushed Hou Dasheng, who was resting. After Hou Dasheng opened his eyes, the hound whispered, "The manager has asked to have a private call with you immediately through our liaison office. ”

Hou Dasheng slowly opened his eyes and looked at the hound. The latter lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "He hopes to be able to talk to you soon, indicating that this matter is very urgent." In just ten minutes, he had already asked our liaison office three times......"

Listening to the words of the hound, Hou Dasheng wiped his face and sat up slowly: "No. 4 communication, No. 20 channel encryption." ”

Now Hou Dasheng's external communications must be fully encrypted. The whole jackal didn't want Hou Dasheng's location to be leaked, so it was extremely difficult for him to communicate with the outside world. There is only a dedicated channel, which is dedicated to maintaining communication with Hou Dasheng's side through special channels.

But this kind of communication is not all the time, unless there is something special, every ten minutes send a security signal in secret words and then remain silent. The three times that the hound said about the ten-minute communication are also based on this reason. It is impossible for the jackal's liaison office to know the frequency of Hou Dasheng's communication.

This is a communication channel that only the main base knows about the specific change, and at the same time receives information from the front line without interruption. The liaison office is just able to pass information up and down. In order to ensure smooth communication, the front line is naturally equipped with several sets of proprietary satellite phones with specific encryption for external communication.

However, none of these communication devices can be easily used, and the use of one is equivalent to discarding one. His current opponents include a large number of people who do not know their identity, status and scope of ability. In this regard, Hou Dasheng and the jackal did not dare to take it lightly.

They would rather discard the encrypted external communication devices than expose the content of their communications. Even every time he communicated, Hou Dasheng would deliberately complete the exchange of messages in a short period of time and then hang up the phone. In order to avoid the leakage of information and one's own location.

This encryption system, although the security factor is guaranteed, is very troublesome to operate. Its encoding is hybrid, and the encryption system is very complex. Every time you start encryption, you need to wait about five minutes for it to enter the communication encryption. After that, you can make a call and relay it through the system.

Hou Dasheng got out of the car, and the hound silently took the thermos and poured some hot tea from it. These thermos are also one of the benefits that Lu Song left behind. Wherever Chinese people go, they like to drink tea. Lu Song is naturally no exception. In the past, there were no conditions, but when the conditions were ripe, he got some thermos kettles.

These kettles are not large, but they are large enough to hold 1,200 litres of hot water. Drinking tea outside naturally doesn't have so much attention. The big tea jar is boiled, and you can drink it. Hou Dasheng also likes to drink strong tea anyway, so it doesn't matter.

And tea can also supplement vitamins, so Hou Dasheng simply soaked these steel kettles and those tea leaves according to the amount. It is also given to the rest of the jackals to drink together. His own one was carried by the hound himself.

The hot water kettle that Lu Song picked naturally took into account the problem of carrying and drinking. The lid is twisted and constructed entirely of stainless steel. The inner tank can ensure that the water is still warm for 20 hours, and the lid can be removed and used as a cup. Unscrewed the kettle, and Hound and Hou Dasheng poured some tea.

I lifted the lid and used it as a cup and drank some tea. Hou Dasheng soothed his spirits, patted his face, and then sat down on the chair set by the hound next to the car. After a while, the communications team member came over with a satellite phone, handed it to Hou Dasheng's hand and nodded.

Hou Dasheng, who took the phone, dialed a group of numbers. Then he put the satellite phone to his ear, and the sky was already bright. The city lights are fading in the distance.

"Sir, I hope you'll give me enough reason to use this communication." Hou Dasheng's phone was quickly connected, and Hou Dasheng said lightly while holding the phone: "You know that I have basically cut off external communication now, and every communication is extremely difficult." ”

The manager on the other end of the phone didn't talk nonsense, and said directly to Hou Dasheng: "The veteran is coming." ”

This sentence made Hou Dasheng on the other end of the phone directly silent. In a trance, Hou Dasheng remembered the rumors he had heard about him. The giant wolf used to go on missions with him, but not many times. Later, he mysteriously disappeared.

It wasn't until the giant wolf became the leader of the jackal that he gradually learned some news about him. But the first time the wolf went on a mission with him, the wolf noticed him - the veteran.

"He's a soldier, a pure soldier. Uncompromisingly, incomparably pure soldiers. The wolf's adjective for the veteran is this: "All his energy and all his time is spent thinking about how to fight." You just have to give him the task and he will complete it. ”

At that time, Hou Dasheng was very surprised by this. The giant wolf told Hou Dasheng with a smile: "He is a character who is more Andrew Rowan than the so-called 'Andrew Rowan'." Or rather, he's a strengthened version of Andrew Rowan. ”

Andrew Rowan, Lieutenant in the U.S. Army. His provenance is a story. This story, which has been widely circulated and even represents the American spirit to a certain extent, is called "A Letter to General Garcia". The story takes place in the United States more than a hundred years ago, when the Spanish-American War was about to break out.

William McKinley, then the twenty-fifth president of the United States, needed someone to send a letter to Cuba at the time to General Garcia, who no one even knew where he was at the time. The Military Intelligence Directorate at the time, recommended Andrew Rowan to the president. No hesitation, no inquiry. There was only one "Yes, sir". Andrew Rowan took the letter and began his own journey of delivering it.

Eventually, he managed to cross the battle line and the jungle to deliver the letter to General Garcia. And this story was recorded and processed into a book by Albert Hubbard. Since then, Andrew Rowan has become one of the spiritual symbols of the United States.

"Veteran, that's the kind of person he is. He's focused, he's persistent, he doesn't seem to care about anything but the military and the military. I even wonder if this guy has the desires that an ordinary person would have. The giant wolf looked at Hou Dasheng at that time and said with a wry smile: "Because this guy looks more rigid than the German side in many ways." ”

And this person's situation, Lu Song also talked to Hou Dasheng about it. For the veteran, Lu Song said this: "He is somewhat similar to the company commander. But with a more rigid life. I think he may even be a Puritanical soldier in modern times. ”

"I don't know much about him. The only thing I can tell you is that almost everyone in Grozny at the time thought that they were going to be completely killed by the Emperor. But he went, and went in silence. With the rest of the people, he came back alive. ”

After a pause, Lu Song looked at Hou Dasheng and said word by word: "According to the information we have, it was also during that period that the Slavs suffered extremely heavy losses. Originally, their casualties were less than 500, but during that time the casualties increased dramatically. What exactly happened, they didn't decipher it, and we have no way of knowing. But veterans set off with people, we know that. ”

"In a word, in a word: if this old thing moves, you should quickly shrink your eggs." This is Lu Song's last summary to Hou Dasheng. Related topics, Hou Dasheng naturally hinted at those old Slavic guys in a roundabout way.

But when they heard the name "veteran", the old guys all fell silent for a long time. Or he pretended not to understand what Hou Dasheng wanted to ask. From these traces, Hou Dasheng can judge that these old guys must have suffered losses at the hands of veterans.

It is certainly not a simple character that can make these unruly old guys cautious, and even reluctant to mention more.

"I see, why did you tell me this?" Hou Dasheng held the phone and leaned back in his chair to relax his body. The manager on the other end of the phone said in a deep voice: "He appeared, which means that this action is upgraded." There was an agreement, and he couldn't show up easily. The veteran showed up, which meant endless trouble. Even if you kill him. ”

Hou Dasheng couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. From the mouths of the giant wolf and Lu Song, he roughly guessed the situation and status of the veteran. In the United States, his position was roughly similar to that of his own uncle. It's that you can hate him, but you can't provoke him.

He's going to get old, and he's going to be immobilized. But he saved too many people. There are too many of his siblings, his comrades in life and death. He doesn't fight for power, and he doesn't like power. He stood like a monument, no matter who it was, even if it was an enemy. They all had to maintain respect for him.

Such an old fellow, once touching him, it means endless trouble. He represents too many people, he means too many people's attitudes. Although he will not be recorded by history and does not disdain to be recorded by history. But those who remember him, his siblings will look to him as a monument.

You go to move someone else's monument, and what that means is obvious. In particular, he is still affiliated with the military.

"Okay, thanks." After saying this, Hou Dasheng hung up directly without hesitation. After throwing the phone to the hound, Hou Dasheng said in a deep voice: "Use another communicator, now!" ”
