Chapter Forty-Six: Into the Vultures
Early the next morning, the Sand Fox team packed up, and Xie Xiaoshuai went to Brother Duan to apply for a helicopter to return to the Sidewinder. Brother Duan told him that he was not in a hurry, and asked him to go to Xie Pingyang's office first, and Xie Pingyang had something to do with him.
Xie Xiaoshuai didn't understand what his father was looking for him, although the father and son rarely communicated, but the father and son knew each other very well, and under normal circumstances, the father would not take the initiative to talk to him.
Walking to Xie Pingyang's office, Xie Xiaoshuai opened the door and went in without even knocking on the door. Xie Pingyang was looking at a document in his hand at this time, and when he heard the sound of opening the door, he raised his head a little angrily, basically no one dared to enter his office without knocking on his one-third of an acre of land.
Xie Xiaoshuai ignored his father's glare, walked to the desk, didn't say anything, and stood there, waiting for his father to speak.
Seeing his son's resolute cheeks, they have faded into immaturity. The collar has a two-star lieutenant rank, and the standard standing posture is upright. Xie Pingyang is very comforted in his heart, he is actually very proud of his son, but he has never been good at expressing his feelings in front of his son, and he has always maintained the image of a strict father.
"What's the matter with me?" Looking at his father, who had been looking at him, Xie Xiaoshuai broke the silence.
"You sit down first, I want to ask you something." Xie Pingyang pointed to the chair expressionlessly.
After Xie Xiaoshuai sat down, Xie Pingyang said again: "I heard that there is a female member in your team?" And when the anti-terrorist commando team was established, you also deliberately left a female member whose overall quality is not very high? β
"Yes, there is such a thing." Xie Xiaoshuai replied very simply.
"What do you think? Don't you know that on the battlefield, women sometimes bring great danger to them because of their unique physiological characteristics? In the history of our army, there is no precedent for female special operators to go to the battlefield, don't you think your behavior is a bit reckless? β
"Who says women can't go to war? Our squad's tactical meds are no worse than their male counterparts on the battlefield, and if you don't think women are suitable for the front, I can only say that you discriminate against women. Xie Xiaoshuai's answer was a bit sharp.
Xie Pingyang slapped the table and said angrily: "Who said I discriminated against women? I'm asking you why there are women in the special operations unit. β
"That's because women have their innate advantages, and in the eyes of ordinary people, there are only male soldiers in the special forces. Once a war breaks out, the special detachment enters behind the enemy to reconnoitre, and the enemy's focus will be on the man, and sending a female special forces to infiltrate in makeup will often have an unexpected effect, which I think you already know. β
"Have you ever wondered how serious the consequences would be if they were captured? I think there must be a lot more ways to torture a woman than a man, and the consequences are not something you can imagine. β
"I want to send out a female soldier to reconnoitre, then she will definitely be ready to sacrifice her life for the country, and when I carried out ideological education for the team, I didn't say what would happen after being captured. Every member of our shuffleboard team has a glorious bullet on us at any time, and we are ready to sacrifice our lives for the country at any time. β
"Okay, let's not discuss this issue, you tell me what you think about the future of special operations." Xie Pingyang diverted the topic.
Xie Xiaoshuai pondered for a moment: "In the future, special operations should be diversified and multi-arms coordinated operations, and should not be limited to conventional operations. Although the current special forces training has included a series of complex terrains such as cities, deserts, and oceans, there is still a lack of actual combat experience in these areas. We are still lacking in high-tech equipment, and there is a shortage of highly educated talents, although we have increased the cultural education of the players, but the foundation is there, the starting point is too low, and what can be learned is very limited. β
"Oh, so what do you think is going to do about it?"
"In my opinion, we should select outstanding personnel from various units to join the special forces, and at the same time, we should give favorable conditions to recruit elite talents from major colleges and universities and train them. In this way, the problem of talent is solved. β
"What about high-tech equipment?"
"Learn from the special forces of foreign armies, how to equip this is a problem that your leaders should consider."
"Alright, that's it. What you said is a clichΓ©, and it's not like we haven't studied it, so it's not very feasible. Many of the highly educated talents in the local area will choose companies with good salaries, and they will rarely come to the special forces to endure hardships. Xie Pingyang stopped Xie Xiaoshuai's remarks.
"That's because there is not enough publicity, and the outside world knows too little about our special forces."
"You mean to say that we should put the special forces in full front of the world? Then what secrets do our special forces have to speak of? β
"That's right, it's because the special forces are too mysterious to the outside world, so many people don't understand us and don't know what our special forces do. In fact, the training of our special forces is more rigorous than that of the conventional arms, and the equipment is more advanced, so there is no need to hide ourselves under the shadows, as long as the core secrets are not involved, some things that have nothing to do with the overall situation can be revealed to the world, which not only maintains the mystery that the special forces should have, but also reflects the majesty of the special forces. β
"Isn't this nonsense! Okay, no more talking. Xie Pingyang's fiery temper has come up.
"Then there's nothing to say, to be honest, you're really not as good as an old cannon in terms of innovation, look at my sand fox team. I also understand the current situation of the vulture, you are too focused on the training of the team members, which is not in line with the current trend of social development, if the combat mode of the special forces is still stuck in the jungle and fighting guerrilla warfare with the enemy, then what is the difference between this unit and the field army, I am afraid that it is only much stronger than the individual combat ability of the field army. The special operation of the future should follow the trends of social development. I'm speaking with facts, not with you. Arrange for me a helicopter and my squad and I are going to echo the Sidewinder. Xie Xiaoshuai saw that his father was angry, and he had no interest in continuing to talk.
"Back to what? You don't have to go back, your sand fox squad has been included in the battle sequence of the vultures, and you will be the people of the vultures in the future, this is an order, you can take a good look. Xie Pingyang slapped the order in his hand in front of Xie Xiaoshuai.
looked at the red-headed document issued by the headquarters organ, which clearly stated that what Xie Pingyang said was true. Xie Xiaoshuai was stupid, how could this help the vulture team with a mission, and even the people of their sand fox team were sold to the vultures.
"Also, according to the spirit of the document of our Condor Brigade being changed to the Condor Special Operations Brigade, your position will also be upgraded by one level, and now you are a captain officer, and the rank of deputy battalion at the administrative level. As for the officers in your squad, they are also promoted by one level at the same time, and non-commissioned officers are not among them. β
Regarding this sudden news, Xie Xiaoshuai was not happy at all, and he was very unclear about this transfer. Xie Pingyang looked at his son who was not happy or sad, he was very satisfied, and comforted his son in his heart to take a big step forward from taking over his class. Xie Pingyang took out the rank of captain that had been prepared from the drawer and walked over, he wanted to personally confer the title on his son, which meant great to him.
Xie Xiaoshuai hurriedly got up and stood upright, he had no objection to his father's action of conferring the title on him, and he was also very excited in his heart. Father's actions are obviously very satisfied with his achievements, otherwise according to his father's temper, most of them are throwing the rank on the table and letting him go.
The father and son solemnly saluted each other, and without any extra words, Xie Xiaoshuai turned around and left Xie Pingyang's office, looking for his teammates, preparing to tell his teammates the news.
