"Commander!" I was a little embarrassed and said, "I don't think it's appropriate for me to do this task!" ”

"Oh, tell me your reasons!"

"First of all......" I thought about it and said, "I don't know English, so I have a communication barrier!" ”

"This is easy to solve!" Commander Zhang replied without thinking about it: "We can transfer a translator for you!" ”

I have no doubt about this, although China's reform and opening up has just started in this era, but there are many people in China, and overseas Chinese are still quite large, it is really not difficult to find a few translators who can speak English.

"Secondly!" I continued: "The terrain and climate of the Malvinas Islands are very different from those of Afghanistan, and I am very limited in what I can do!" ”

"You're thinking too much about that!" Commander Zhang said: "As I said before, our purpose is to obtain as detailed and true as possible the information that we can learn from or refer to, and it is not very important whether it can be useful. Of course, you have to be careful about this, and if it doesn't work at all, it probably means that the British won't let you participate in too many military operations, which will also affect our access to information. In that sense, if you can really be 'limited', that's fine, but I'm sure you won't be that simple! ”

Commander Zhang laughed as he spoke, shook his head at me and said, "You kid, no matter which battlefield you go to, it will always surprise people, this is the case in Vietnam, Afghanistan, and even the training in the anti-drug brigade!" So. I'm just afraid you're going to play too much. And don't worry that you're going to play too little! ”

I couldn't help but feel helpless. Although we now say that we are an ally of the United States, everyone knows that this ally is only temporary, and it is only used to contain the Soviet Union, and we have conflicts with the United States and Britain on many issues and interests, such as the Taiwan issue, and for example, China is likely to become a great power and threaten the US hegemony, and so on, all of which doom the alliance between China and the United States to be short-lived.

And because of that. Therefore, it is necessary for us to have reservations, but as Commander Zhang said, we must grasp a good degree of reservations.

"But ......" I said helplessly: "The formation of the anti-narcotics brigade and the anti-narcotics work in Yunnan have just begun. ”

"That's a real problem!" Commander Zhang nodded: "But there are priorities, and the anti-drug work is a long-term and continuous process, not achieved overnight, not to mention that you have already made a good start, and there will be no problem in letting Captain Chen and Deputy Director Chen be responsible for training and practice for a period of time!" ”

Then Commander Zhang changed his words and said, "But how did you come up with the idea of forming a plainclothes policeman?" In the past, we always felt that the class struggle and the handling of contradictions among the people should be above board. Many cadres also thought that wearing uniforms would have a deterrent power, and no one thought that sometimes wearing civilian clothes could do things better! ”

"It's nothing!" I replied rather nonchalantly, "The commander also knows." When I used to fight with the Vietnamese devils in the army, I used to play infiltration warfare and spy warfare with them. So I sometimes wonder, since these methods can be used in wars, can we also use these methods to deal with drug dealers or improve these methods and transplant them to the anti-drug front? I didn't expect this to work! ”

"Oh!" Commander Zhang nodded suddenly: "It's good that you think so, and I think this method can be used not only in anti-narcotics, but also in cracking down on domestic criminals or gangs with the nature of the underworld, so this tactic should be promoted in the public security departments across the country, and should not be limited to the scope of anti-narcotics in Yunnan!" ”

Of course, I have no problem with what Commander Zhang said, in fact, this is what I thought before. It's just that what Commander Zhang doesn't know is that this plainclothes policeman is actually not my invention, nor was he inspired by tactics such as infiltration warfare in the war, as I just said.

What really reminds me of the formation of "plainclothes police" is that in the past, China's public security departments had already formed this unit during this period, but the time should have been around the time of next year's strike-hard crackdown.

"What? Don't want to go to Argentina yet? "Commander Zhang handed me a cigarette.

I couldn't help but be silent.

Commander Zhang is right, I really don't want to go to Argentina. The reason is very simple, from the current film materials and the fact that I have been to Argentina and even visited this Falklands when I was traveling, so I have some basic understanding of the war.

It was said that I went with the group at that time, and it happened that one of the tour guides arranged for us was a graduate of the history department, and the result was that this tour guide committed an occupational disease...... It is also possible that this student wanted to show us his profound knowledge of history, so every time he went to a place, he gave a detailed introduction to what happened in this place and what happened to that place, and everyone was annoyed to listen to it.

So at this point, I felt like I was doing useless work...... Commander Zhang wants to know something, or learn from something, I can tell him a big deal now, although I don't know very comprehensively, but many of the information obtained from modern times have been discussed and analyzed by military scientists, and these will obviously be of great help to Commander Zhang.

However...... What can I say? Could it be that I already knew the outcome of the Falklands War, and even some of the impact it had on our country's military reform, and so on?

If you say this, I am afraid that you will soon be regarded as a spirit disease by Commander Zhang.

"I know!" Commander Zhang misunderstood what I meant, he patted me on the shoulder and said: "Comrade Yang Xuefeng, you have worked hard in the past few years, either Vietnam or Afghanistan, even if you return to this base, you must start training immediately, it is rare to have a few easy days, and now you have to be sent to the Argentine battlefield again......"

I wanted to deny it, but then I thought about it...... If so, what is the reason? So I could only choose silence again.

"But Comrade Yang Xuefeng!" Later, Commander Zhang said earnestly: "This task is very important to us, and it can not only serve us as a reference on the Taiwan issue, but is even very likely to play a very important guiding role in the modernization of our entire army, so the higher authorities attach great importance to this issue." To be honest, I don't feel at ease if I send someone else, because others may not be able to understand it, and they may not be able to grasp the key point and core of this war, so there will naturally be less valuable information that can be provided for us. Do you understand what I mean? ”

Of course, I can understand this, there is a saying that "insiders look at the doorway, laymen look at the excitement", if this matter is sent to a person who does not understand military affairs at all, the focus of his observation will even be on what advanced weapons and equipment Britain uses or the number of fighter planes taking off and fighting. More important things like how the various branches of the British military work together, how to command, how to respond to emergencies, and how Argentina responded, etc., are often overlooked.

However, I am the organizer of the composite battalion, that is, the organizer and trainer of the infantry, tank, artillery, and even the coordinated operations of the various arms of the air force.

"In addition, the United States also happened to ask you to go!" Commander Zhang said: "So it's exactly what we want, is there any difficulty?" ”

"Report to the commander, there is no difficulty!" I stepped forward and replied.

Soldiers, in addition to obedience or obedience, not to mention that I should indeed go to Argentina for the sake of the overall situation of the country.

"Good!" Commander Zhang nodded: "Keep in mind the purpose of this trip, don't get carried away while fighting!" ”

"Yes!" I stepped up.

"In addition to the necessary translators, guards, and a staff officer, you can take ten people with you!" Commander Zhang continued: "What the British side is asking for is an advisory group, and if necessary, it is very likely that a company will be formed with your backbone!" ”

"Yes!" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, if I could bring ten people, why didn't Commander Zhang say earlier, all the people in my agent company were left in Yunnan.

"Oh!" Looking at the confusion on my face, Commander Zhang explained: "This plan was carried out in a very hasty manner, and the British side was unprepared, and we only learned about the news that we could bring ten people. But don't ......."

Speaking of this, Commander Zhang looked at his watch and said, "The departure time is two o'clock at noon tomorrow, and we still have more than ten hours of preparation time, what manpower you need will be adjusted immediately!" ”

"Yes!" I didn't dare to slack off, so I took the paper and pen that Commander Zhang handed me and wrote down a string of names.

The ten names written here are all some of the soldiers in the original second platoon, and Scar, the company commander, is of course indispensable, and there are also some such as Liang Company Soldiers, Small Stones, and the like...... The reason why I chose them is not because I "look at the head", but because I have a clear understanding of their personalities and specialties, which is quite important for tacit understanding on the battlefield. Needless to say, who the staff officer brings, it is naturally my right-hand man Zhao Jingping.

This is especially true of Scar, who has a knack for training recruits and more, and can stand alone on the battlefield...... This means that I can free up more time and energy to complete the main task, which is to get the information we need in as much detail as possible.

At this time, I couldn't help but think to myself, how can this mission seem to have a bit of a spy flavor! (To be continued......)
