Chapter 20 Farewell to Tibetan Paradise

"Chief, do we really plan to use the most conventional methods of warfare? Such a result will only cost us more unnecessarily! I asked. Commander Zhang looked around at everyone with concerned eyes and said: "We may not know our own country, just like an ant on an elephant, it will never know how strong its backing is, and the prerequisite for winning a war is not in the strategic weapons in the war, but in the tactical skills that have no defects. As he spoke, Commander Zhang nodded slightly at us, as if he was saying this to make us understand what he meant, and he continued: "War is both a technology and an art. ”

Of course, what Commander Zhang said was not wrong, but after all, he didn't have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in person, and he said this specifically to us. I know that Zhang Lao's mind is to reduce the pressure on us mentally, but as soldiers, we are facing a suspenseful moment of life and death, and his words are a little light. If, years later, I teach my recruits this way, it will definitely make others think that I don't have a backache when I speak.

It is a spirit for artists to dedicate their lives to art in order to perfect their souls, but ...... we give our lives to war? I think it's a failure. It seems that in the face of an unprecedented conundrum, each of us must have our own point of view.

After spending a few days at the observatory at the top of this unnamed peak, the four of us packed up and headed for Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, where there is a satellite launch base that is one of the three most well-known satellite launch sites in China. Before leaving, Big Yellow Fang seemed to suddenly remember something, and shouted happily: "Comrades, I am going back to my hometown this time!" I and Da Huangya are fellow villagers in Shanxi, I am from Linfen, Jinnan, Shanxi, and Da Huangya is in Luliang area, Da Huangya said that we are going back to our hometown this time, but it is true, but after all, this is just to go to our hometown to carry out the mission, and not to let us go home to visit relatives, I really don't know which door Da Huangya is happy about.

Colonel Tariq chattered on the side: "Chief of Staff Huang is on vacation when he returns to his hometown?" We're on a mission, maybe we won't even pass by your door when we go to Taiyuan! ”

Big Yellow Fang was not happy to hear Colonel Tariq's words: "Hey, I said kebabs, but I haven't been home since I was a soldier, can I not be happy to go to our hometown on a mission this time?" This is the glory of our hometown! Luo Xiaoming grabbed the words in a serious tone on the side: "Chief of Staff Huang, don't be too excited, this is a war and not a big military parade back to your hometown, don't you feel that your hometown has been burned by the war, and you are very sad?" Big Yellow Tooth's face lost the excitement of returning to his hometown at this time, and instead became full of worry and did not say a word. Colonel Tariq also felt that it was inappropriate to say this today, and he was disappointed to everyone, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he lowered his head and only cared about packing his bags. Seeing this situation, I felt that everyone was working together to fight and not be dead, so I quickly changed the topic: "I said everyone, when we leave later, there will be many Tibetan compatriots in the airport to sing and dance for us, and we have to leave a good impression on the Tibetan compatriots...... We left the observatory at the top of the unnamed peak in a jeep, and then took a Black Hawk multi-role military helicopter to Lhasa's Gonggar airport in Luo Xiaoming's camp. Battalion Commander Luo and Colonel Tariq have been ordered to leave their troops and go to the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Base with me and Big Yellow Tooth, as for who will lead their troops next, I have never been embarrassed to ask, after all, people have made trouble with me and Big Yellow Tooth, and now they have become single commanders. Outside the runway of Lhasa's Gonggar Airport, there was a long send-off procession on both sides, including comrades-in-arms who had participated in the mission together, commanders of other units, and more Tibetan compatriots singing and dancing. As the four of us walked onto the tarmac to prepare for boarding, the soldiers standing on both sides of the runway shouted "Salute!" The four of us also stood in front of an Il-76 military plane that carried us away and saluted our comrades. Long. In the song and dance troupe of Tibetan compatriots, several elderly grandmothers came forward and presented us with a white hada with tears in their eyes, and at the same time, several of us also gave military salutes to the old grandmothers. I heard the lyrics of the song and couldn't help but shed tears, I had heard this song before, but at this time I felt more appropriate in my heart: my hometown is in Shigatse, where there is a beautiful river...... The blue sky is full of white clouds, and the white clouds are fluttering and the horses are running......

In the porthole of the plane, I could still see the arms of the Tibetan compatriots waving goodbye, and I could still see the comrades-in-arms saluting us outside the runway...... My eyes were blurry, and I didn't dare to say goodbye to them with my fragile will. As a soldier who is a family from all over the world, we are not reluctant to leave this part of Tibet, but we are reluctant to leave the fathers and villagers in every place, and in the military career of leaving our parents, the fathers and villagers in every place feel that they are our relatives in our hearts.

...... Surrounded by snow-capped rivers that resemble white Hada and lakes that look like blue jewels, this is a relaxing Tibetan paradise. I looked farther and farther out of the heavenly landscape, praying again and again in my heart for the peace of my beautiful home, and the view from the outside was blurred, leaving only the blue sky and soft marshmallow clouds outside the porthole. I was about to close my eyes and take a breath when a greeting came from the cockpit: "Hello sir! ”

I opened my eyes and looked closely, only to see a young man in a Mao suit coming out of the cockpit, this person was about the same age as me, but the younger person had a big back, and the outfit made people feel that this person looked like the boss of Shanghai Tang during the Republic of China. The man was standing at the hatch and smiling at us, and happened to be in eye contact with mine, so I nodded politely at him and smiled. Since he was not a soldier in the army, we were very casual in etiquette, and in a dim sense I felt as if I had seen this person somewhere, and I couldn't remember it for a while. However, the big yellow tooth is very ghostly, and when he meets a stranger, he feels that this person is not small, because anyone who can sit on this military plane now is by no means an idle person. I saw that as soon as he saw the person in front of him, his eyes showed a strange look, as if he had seen an old friend, his eyes were full of kindness, and he impulsively teased others again: "Oh, comrade, hello hello!" This one...... You...... It's ......"

However, the big back head was also very polite: "Hello sir, you didn't recognize me?" When Big Yellow Tooth heard that the two of them had dealt with each other before, and now they couldn't recognize who the other party was, he was stunned for a while: "Oh? Oh! Are you the ......? "I've tuned the telescope for you before, sir!" "Telescopes?!" Big Yellow Fang wondered.

"Astronomical telescope!" As soon as I said this, I also remembered who he was, and wasn't this the same person we had seen at the observatory at the top of the nameless peak who had tuned our telescopes. However, I didn't have the heart to talk to him at this time, because we were facing a difficult and uncertain task, so I was under a lot of pressure and didn't want to talk to people. But Big Yellow Tooth seemed to have seen an old friend (he looked like an old friend when he saw everyone), clasped his hand on the big back and greeted cordially: "Comrade, where are you on a business trip!" ”

Big Yellow Tooth happily exchanged pleasantries with Big Back, while Colonel Tariq and Luo Xiaoming, who were sitting next to me, glanced at Big Yellow Tooth and then rested on the back of the seat with their eyes closed. However, the big back replied that the three of us couldn't help but look at this person differently, and only heard this person reply: "I am on the order of my superiors to go to the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Base with all the commanders, and I will briefly introduce myself, my name is Shen Guojian......

Before Shen Guojian finished introducing himself, I saw Colonel Tariq sitting next to me standing up excitedly and walked forward quickly, breaking free of the black hands of the big yellow teeth that had been clenching Shen Guojian, his eyes were full of excitement, and they held Shen Guojian's hand with a little trembling and said: "Comrade, since you are going to Taiyuan with us, are you participating in the mission of training and landing on Titan with us?" ”

Shen Guojian replied with a smile on his face: "Back to the sir, I was ordered to participate in the landing on Titan!" Speaking of landing on Titan, the four of us as special forces soldiers can be said to know nothing, since it is a landing on extraterrestrial objects, then there must be no lack of guidance and constructive opinions of professional astronomers, so the four of us present heard that the superior arranged a professional astronomer, of course the heart is extremely excited, I don't feel so depressed at this time, I feel like I have a backing to give us advice, So I also stood up and said loudly: "Comrade Shen Guojian, our landing action group warmly welcomes you!" Shen Guojian is a very easy-going person, with a cheerful personality and can speak, but he is not like Big Yellow Tooth who will only skim and talk and be annoying, and Shen Guojian is a person with a wide range of interests, omniscient, omniscient, exaggerated, knowing astronomy, geography, ancient and modern China and foreign know-it-all, it is simply a know-it-all, and more prominent is that as an astronomer, he does not have the nerdy energy of that kind of cultural person, but has the domineering soul of a person who practices martial arts. Luo Xiaoming asked with some doubts: "Comrade Shen, since you are going to Taiyuan with us, why don't you board the plane with us at the airport, so that the farewell team at the airport can send you off." "Yes, yes! Your mission now is as glorious as ours, why did you choose to keep a low profile? Big Yellow Fang couldn't help but ask. Shen Guojian said implicitly: "Hey, don't don't, I'm not doing something earth-shattering, and besides, we don't have much fame, what are you doing with that pomp?" "What we're going to do this time isn't 'earth-shattering'!" I shouted. "That's right! How nice it would be for the Tibetan compatriots to give you a farewell! Maybe I'll get another Hada! Colonel Tariq said with regret.

When chatting with Shen Guojian, we learned that Shen Guojian was actually a fellow villager in Shanxi and a native of Taiyuan, Shanxi, along with me and Da Huangya. Colonel Tariq also said to Da Huangya with a little interest: "Chief of Staff Huang, have you seen it, Comrade Shen Guojian's family is called going back to his hometown on a business trip!" - By the way! ”

The entire cabin was filled with the joyful laughter of the five of us.
