LBU: Winter in the Pamirs

D: The ultimate winner (middle)

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Half a month after the "Snow Dragon" incident, Shu Shiwu returned to his motherland after a two-year absence with the "Gonggong"-class dual-purpose starship under the Navy Special Commando, but the first stop at his feet was not the Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan Joint Military Industry Prefecture, where the E Lianhua Brigade was stationed, which he was familiar with, but the place where the "Pamir Winter" polar trials were held -- Kizilsu Kirgiz Autonomous Prefecture of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

Speaking of which, this matter can be traced back to the day before returning to China, Long Jiayu suddenly received a phone call from the General Hospital of the Chengdu Military Region, saying that his wife Grace, who was seven months pregnant, was unwell and had been admitted to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital in advance. Long Jiayu was anxious when he heard the news, and then Shi Wu Fang knew that the general was going to be a father soon......

Fortunately, the hijacking incident was finally resolved without danger, and General Long was safe and sound, otherwise how could he be worthy of the general's wife who once treated him as his own brother? It's a pity that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and my sister-in-law was admitted to the hospital at this time, and the general naturally didn't have the heart to care about other things.

The polar trials are about to be held, and the good players from all walks of life screened out by the five major theaters have gathered in Muztag, and it is absolutely impossible to postpone the event, so Shi Wu took the initiative to ask General Ying to go to Aktao County, not to mention presiding over the overall situation, at least so that the trials can be carried out normally, and by the way, see with your own eyes, those who have the opportunity to become members of the second phase of the "24 solar terms" special operation team, how many catties and taels are there......

However, what I didn't expect was that on the first day of the trials, Shi Wu, as the instructor of the first round of assessment, was beaten mercilessly by a short-haired female soldier with a hot temperament in front of everyone!

In fact, at that time, when he stood up again, a trace of serious thoughts flashed in his heart, but after thinking about it, the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, no matter what the identity and status of the opponent he encounters, and whether there is a gap between his strength and the other party, he cannot lose the determination and will to fight with him. Isn't this exactly what you want to see? And that soldier's fighting skills, as far as the fighters trained by the regular army are concerned, they are indeed outstanding and malleable.

Therefore, Shi Wu, who has never tasted defeat in his own field in his life, chose to admit defeat for the first time, so that Luna, who only learned his name at this moment, has the opportunity to continue this selection journey, and sincerely hopes that she can go all the way to the end.

Correspondingly, it was Xue Qiang, the No. 30 player, who originally only wanted him to pay the necessary price for his tardiness, but he quit without saying a word, so that the hard-won future was ruined in vain. Although the reason sounds righteous, it also shows the flaws of the character vividly. How can a person who can't even tolerate a few bad words be able to achieve great things in the future, and how can he rest assured that the safety of the general is in the hands of such a person?

Closing the roster of all the participants in the "Pamir Winter", Shi Wu got up and stretched heavily, and the soldiers in the winter uniforms of the PLA Strategic Support Force on the two rows of seats next to him still kept their attention to the screens in front of them, while without Bika by his side, he was often a little bored and unable to sit still, and every once in a while he had to walk outside the temporary command post, looking at the snow-capped Muztag Mountain in the distance, and breathing a little breath.

Since Luna and No. 13 team member Leng Fei both rolled off the cliff after a vicious fight two days ago, the surveillance footage provided by the high-altitude drone has not captured the two of them, there is no distress signal, and the guards on duty rushed to the scene of the incident and did not find any trace related to them.

From the analysis of the remaining on-site situation, they should be fine, but the most exciting duel since the beginning of the event has come to an end, which still makes Shi Wu feel a little unfinished, and most of the rest of the team members are hiding, and the live broadcast of the battle will then become a natural documentary, and the more you watch it, the more boring it becomes.

Having said that, the guards on duty who were responsible for the security and rescue of this selection competition were actually equipped with similar power weapons as the "North Wind Viking", which made him suddenly recall many things that happened after the life-and-death battle in the Arctic Ocean that day......

First of all, the most critical point is that Sealand did not die, and the reason may be that the god of death in charge of the region is not a woman, or it is not a tigress like herself......

Just as Shi Wu silently watched her sink into the cold abyss of the Arctic Ocean, Long Jiayu, who had regained his freedom, came to the side of the ship under the escort of the Navy Special Commando soldiers and made a bold decision that surprised everyone: to save Sealand as much as possible, and at the same time salvage her power weapon, as well as the big killer weapon that should have been silent in the deep sea forever - the "Medusa" snake path laser cannon.

The general's explanation was that the other party did not harm the crew of the "Snow Dragon" and was not guilty of death. On the other hand, China's individual laser weapons have been stuck at the low-level level of auxiliary operations and blinding the enemy, if there is a mature snake laser cannon in hand, after dismantling and researching, it will be able to improve the relevant combat effectiveness of our army, then the hijacking is not nothing.

It makes sense.

Anyway, Shi Wu didn't want Sealand to die so aggrieved like being locked in an iron cage and sinking to the bottom of the sea, so he simply took off his mercenary clothes, changed into the diving equipment carried by the icebreaker, and with the wound on his right arm, he and two Navy Commando soldiers used a cable to drop below sea level.

Although the Arctic Ocean is the coldest ocean on earth, it is also the smallest and shallowest ocean, with an average depth of only 1,097 meters, but even so, it still greatly exceeds the deepest 332 meters recorded by human equipment diving[2].

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the other party to survive until the deep submersible finds her, hangs the cable hook on the power weapon, and then lifts it back to the surface, because whether it is quickly sinking to the bottom of the water or quickly rising from the deep sea, it is extremely deadly for humans. In such a situation, rescuers cannot compete with death. But fortunately, Sealand's last survival action of inserting the mechanical arm into the underwater part of the ice floe before the inside of the armor was completely filled with water, saved her from continuing to sink after she was already drowning in a coma, and was finally discovered by Shi Wu's searchlight.

The power armament was too heavy, and the only way to get her and her armor out of the water was to rely on the crane that had smashed her into the sea, but it was relatively cumbersome to do so, in addition to fixing the cable and notifying the ship's operators, it was also necessary to get out the hand armor embedded in the deep ice, so I was afraid that I would miss the golden time for drowning rescue.

After a brief moment of deliberation, Shi Wu gestured for the Navy Commando to start the lanyard, while he himself swam to the vicinity of the Power Force, looking for a way to manually open the armor from the outside. Fortunately, this power weapon was designed to anticipate various extreme situations, in order to facilitate the rescue of comrades-in-arms, the front is equipped with a non-electric drive unloading device, although the interior personnel themselves may be difficult to operate in time, but rescuers can still understand the unlocking process in a short time through a few rows of English small print printed on the surface of the armor.

Soon, with a series of beaded blisters emerging from the cracks in the metal, the junction of the power helmet and the neck separated, and then the shoulders moved back in parallel, and the rib reinforcement structure rotated and opened like a fan, slowly pushing out the chest armor that was the thickest protection of the whole body......

Sealand's face and hair are completely enveloped by the ice ocean and water, and she is not at all as fierce as Shi Wu's previous evaluation of her tigress, but the biggest question in front of her at the moment is - why is she naked with a charming body? So much so that I almost choked on a mouthful of seawater when I saw two bronze spheres close at hand! Could it be that she killed the mercenary in the laundry room and left her with no clothes to wear in the end?!

The other party is all smooth, and he really doesn't know where to start. Seeing this, Shi Wu had no choice but to step on the shoulders of the power force with both feet, and then pass his forearms under the armpits on both sides of Sealand and half-squat to pull it out of the power force. With the help of the soldiers of the left and right naval commandos, Shi Wu surfaced to the sea as fast as possible, took the cable and wrapped it around his waist, and took advantage of the strength recovered by the crane to carry Sealand safely onto the icebreaker.

In order to prevent her [carcass] and [private position] from being exposed to more people, someone who maintained the princess holding posture always turned her face towards him, and after the "Snow Dragon" medical staff came to wrap Sealand in a blanket and take her to the treatment room for first aid, Shi Wu, who took off his diving equipment, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's really a day of twists and turns, and it's a fearless warrior and a snake laser, but fortunately, there is still the end benefit of "mermaid out of the water" in addition to the fright, and his eyes have not suffered tons of damage like his body and spirit.

By the time the person in the hospital bed woke up, the icebreaker had sailed back to the port of Ny-Ålsund in Svalbard. Long Jiayu was about to ask his subordinates to contact the Norwegian Coast Guard to hand over Sealand for processing, when a soldier of the Navy Special Commando who was temporarily in charge of guarding the "Snow Dragon" came up to the bridge and reported that there were two foreign men below who wanted to board the ship for an interview with the Chinese Major General and Brigade Commander because of the mercenary chief, and asked the general if he had received him.

Oh, the other party did not look for the captain in charge of the "Snow Dragon", but indicated that he wanted to meet the Chinese rear admiral brigade commander, it seems that he is a person who knows the relevant inside information, in this case, it is necessary for him to meet them for a while.

Long Jiayu moved to the reception room on the second floor of the command tower accompanied by four heavily armed commando soldiers, and the two white men who were led in by the guards later seemed to have a big difference in age and body proportion: the leader was wearing a neat dark brown suit inside, a pure black tweed coat outside, and was about 175 cm tall. The young man walking behind him was more than 1.9 meters tall, with strong muscles that could easily hold out the huge silhouette of his master wrapped in a loose snow camouflage jacket, and he glanced at his surroundings from time to time with an expressionless face, as if the purpose was only to act as a protector.

Long Jiayu raised his hand to invite the two to sit down, but there was no verbal greeting, after all, no matter what aspect it is, it should be the other party who introduces himself first.

The scarred man didn't bother with this, and after sitting down and handing his coat to the tall man beside him, he put it on his arm, and the first thing he said was to report himself in English: "Hello, Mr. Major General." I am Marcus Farr II, the leader of the 'Twilight of The Gods',[3] and if you haven't heard of it, you can call me 'Odin', a man who has caused headaches for the governments and armies of the Nordic countries. ”

The supreme leader of the most powerful mercenary group in Northern Europe, the "Gods of Dusk", General Odin? I didn't expect to be face-to-face with him in such a situation.

As the commander of the Major General of the E Lianhua Brigade, Long Jiayu certainly knew its resounding name, and not only him, but also the soldiers of the Navy Special Commando Team who were on the left and right of the sub-station were not unfamiliar with hearing this name, and for a while they raised their "QJZ-95-V" automatic rifles, and the sound of pulling the bolt back and forth echoed in the exquisitely decorated reception room, making the uninvited guests who were aimed at the muzzles of many guns feel helpless......

"Friends come with good wine, enemies come with shotguns. Although we are not friends and do not need to be so polite to each other, my subordinates and I are not enemies, and I believe that this is not the courtesy and hospitality of you Chinese, Mr. Major General? ”

Hehe, he knows a lot about Chinese culture.

Long Jiayu understood that the soldiers were thinking about their own safety, after all, no one wanted to see that they had just been rescued and kidnapped again. However, it seems that the other party does not seem to have any malicious intentions, and has also undergone relevant security checks before boarding the ship, so you can listen to his words with peace of mind and make a decision before making a decision.

The soldiers of the Navy Special Commando received the signal from Long Jiayu's eyes, and while maintaining a high level of alert, they slowly put down the guns in their hands. Seeing this, the tall man immediately withdrew his body, which had just been blocking in front of his leader for a moment, and asked the two generals to continue the conversation between them that had not yet officially begun.

"Then let's talk about it, the famous General Odin personally came to me, the unlucky major general who has just regained his freedom, what is it for, it shouldn't just be a timely international greeting, right?" Long Jiayu's English level does not need the presence of a translator, so he can be both graceful and funny.

Farr II smiled slightly, but quickly regained his composure: "I regret what happened to you. But I took the liberty of coming here this time to ask Mr. Major General to do me a favor......"

"Oh?"

"I heard that the 'Daughter of the North Wind' is in your hands at this moment, and Mr. Trouble Major General will hand her over to me so that I can take her home with her and her 'Medusa'."

The other party's straightforward request made Long Jiayu even more surprised than seeing Odin himself: "In my limited memories and reflections, the 'Dusk Gods' and the 'North Wind Vikings' are not a family. ”

"That's right. But no matter what, Gretel is the woman I have admired all my life, and I can do anything for her. ”

Hmph, a good sentence of "desperate", it sounds completely understandable to do everything, and it may be more appropriate to express it with "unscrupulous means", and it is also more in line with his true thoughts in his heart. At this time, Long Jiayu was not interested in knowing what the relationship between Farr II and Sealand was, but there was one thing that had to be considered, this was not a combat mission, and the crew of the "Snow Dragon" did not have all the obligations to make choices on behalf of the military.

"Since General Odin said that he asked me for help, I naturally have the right to refuse."

Long Jiayu was not in a hurry to give an answer, and only used an ambiguous statement to test the other party's determination and attitude, since this was the case, Farr II did as he wished: "Of course you can refuse, but this is not the best choice for both you and me. By the way, I wonder if Mr. Major General has noticed that the desolate and remote town of Ny-Ålsund has suddenly become more crowded today, and I think it may be due to the better weather that the number of tourists visiting here has increased compared to the past. ”

Everyone could hear the threat in Farr II's words, but Long Jiayu replied with a sneer that there was no need to beat around the bush so much: "China is not an international policeman, there are some things that have nothing to do with core interests, and we don't need to do too much." You can take Gretel Sealand with you, but only if she is willing......

"As for General Odin's mention of another request, I cannot grant it. In any case, the Serpentine Laser Cannon needs to stay here, and pay the necessary price for its previous reckless hijacking! ”

"Uh-huh." Farr II raised one eyebrow and pursed his lips and nodded, he knew that the other party had drawn his own red line, and he also had a strong subordinate who could single-handedly destroy the two mercenary squads of the "North Wind Viking", plus the Chinese Navy Commando and the three attached attack star boats, if he really tore his face and fought hard, the result might not be beneficial to the "Dusk Gods...... After this plan, his main purpose has been achieved, and as the mastermind behind the whole incident and the ultimate victor, it is not a loss to take a step back.

"Mr. Major General is so reasonable, I should also put myself in your shoes......"

Farr II got up and took his coat back over his shoulders, and after weighing it up as he wished, he made a decision on the spot: "So be it, let's take what we need, and I'll take my 'mermaid', and you—keep your 'Medusa'." ”

Twenty minutes later, the Navy Special Commando soldiers took Sealand, who was wearing the red crew uniform of the "Snow Dragon", to the first floor of the control tower to set up a lift to the port floor, and untied the nylon cable ties that bound his hands under Long Jiayu's nod, and the man who called himself Farr II had been waiting on the shore for a long time.

Although Sealand herself has no good feelings for the "Gods of Twilight", and there is even hostility in her subconscious, at this moment she is even more unaccustomed to the Chinese around her who dare not fight head-on but play conspiracies and tricks to smash themselves into the ice ocean. The most unacceptable thing is that I heard the medical staff say that it was the man who pretended to be the "North Wind Viking" mercenary who salvaged himself from the sea afterwards, and he was not wearing anything at that time, and the whole process must have been humiliating!

Thinking of this, Xilan, who was about to get off the boat, couldn't help but stop, turned back to Long Jiayu and said coldly: "Chinese major general who can speak well, please tell your loyal and lovely subordinates, I will ...... him We'll see you again. When the time comes, except for my future husband, everyone who touches my body - only death! ”

Hey, people were also trying to save you at the time, so how could they care about these details? Long Jiayu didn't take Xilan's angry words to heart, and Shi Wu was not at the scene anyway, so he simply followed her meaning and gave "blessings":

"Then I can only hope that the next time you meet, the vengeful 'daughter of the north wind' will still remain single."

……

At the same time, Shi Wu, who had retrieved his dog from the "Yellow River Station", finally arrived by boat at his last stop before leaving Svalbard, the city of Longyearbyen, not far from New Ålsund. This is where he met the Hungarian girl, and it will be the place where he said goodbye.

In the past few days that Bika has been fostered, it can be regarded as a hardship for our compatriots who have taken care of it at the scientific research station, not only to provide this big stomach with a large amount of fresh fish and meat as food, but also to watch it lose its temper because of the absence of its master.

You said that other dogs went on a hunger strike after leaving their owners, but this guy who raised himself is emotional, but he eats things, sleeps and sleeps, and if he eats and drinks enough, he will only increase his financial burden for no reason, and he doesn't know what sins he has created in his previous life, and he actually has such a "big fat"!

Perhaps, the only thing he can count on in this life is to match himself with the Hungarian girl......

In the hesitation of his steps, Shi Wu had already walked to the corner of the familiar street, and saw that the Hungarian girl in the distance was still taking care of her flower stall as usual, but there was no friendly smile as warm as the sun in the past between her plain faces. At this moment, in addition to the loss, all that is left in his heart is to complain and blame himself for his untrustworthy words......

Shi Wu sighed, led Bika into the Hungarian girl's field of vision, and the other party was stunned for a moment when he saw it, and then when he didn't know the person and dog in front of him, he lowered his head and continued to prune the flower branches in his hands. Perhaps because he felt that the atmosphere was different from before, Bika did not beg the Hungarian girl for food with his signature tail wagging and tongue sticking out his tongue, but only sat quietly on the sidelines, more silent than his host.

For the last time, Shi Wu didn't know how to explain, and in his heart, he stood upright in front of the small stall, and finally had to be broken by the Hungarian girl who suspected him of blocking his business.

"What is this guest going to buy? I think a bouquet of fickle dahlias would be more suitable for you. ”

Dahlia is a world-famous flower, this is auspicious, but because of its many colors, it gives people a feeling of change, and then leads to the second flower language - betrayal, so some people call this flower "traitor of love". There were no dahlias for sale at the stalls, and the meaning of the Hungarian girl's words was obvious, just to define Shiwu's elusive thoughts and behaviors.

"Sorry......"

Shi Wu didn't dare to ask the other party for forgiveness, but at least before he left, there were some words that he couldn't hide in his heart: "I came to say goodbye to you this time." ”

Hearing this, the Hungarian girl stopped her life.

"It's funny to say, when it's time to separate, you don't know who I am." Shi Wu's belated self-introduction, indeed as he said, sounded as if the Hungarian girl was just a first acquaintance with each other, "My name is 'Shu Shiwu', Chinese, and I have been on this island for two years." For a long time, I didn't even know who I was or what I was living for, until something happened that forced me to try to find myself again, and I had to leave the scarred place for a while......

"I am a special forces soldier abandoned by my own motherland, and I am also an ordinary person abandoned by myself. But in this world, there is a mission that I must accomplish, and at the same time, there are concerns that I can never let go. ”

The Hungarian girl did not respond to this, but the expression on her face was a little conflicted and struggling. Because he knew in his heart that at this moment, he might be able to keep him in front of him as long as he said a word, but he had no reason to do that......

"I love Svalbard because there is a girl who sells flowers, she is the only goddess in my heart, but in the end, I don't even know her name......"

finally spit out the words that had been buried in his heart for a long time in front of the people he liked, and Shi Wu no longer had any regrets. After leaving the gift he had prepared for the date at the flower stall, Shi Wuqiang couldn't bear to be reluctant and turned away with Bika, just when he thought that everything was over, a Hungarian girl's gentle answer came from behind him.

“Kiss Kitti...

“Agota Kiss Kitti.”

Agota Gis Katie – this is definitely the best name I've ever encountered in my life.

Shi Wu stopped and turned around, and at this time, he put down the flower branch and walked up to the Agota, and a familiar sweet smile reappeared on his face. Maybe it was because people were bold to leave, or they didn't want to suppress the thoughts in their hearts anymore, at this moment, Shi Wu turned around and walked over to pick him up, and Agota, who was suddenly embraced into his arms, except for the moment when his heels left the ground and some fear, all that was left was happiness and joy on his face with his eyes closed and smiling......

Two days later, the morning in Neo-Ålsund has never been as gentle as it is today, and the three "Gonggong"-class starships parked on the polar tundra only waited for the last passenger to arrive, and then took off to return home with the morning sun. Long Jiayu left time to say goodbye to the wooden house where Shi Wuhe had lived for two years, but what he didn't expect was that it was not only Bika who accompanied him out of the house in his vision, but also a young and beautiful foreign woman.

It seems that some things have already been completed, and it is better not to let that "daughter of the north wind" and Shiwu say goodbye in the future.

Soon, Shi Wu boarded the star boat wearing a flower bracelet that his girlfriend had made for him, and Bika, who was worried that he would not adapt to the water and soil when he went to a foreign place, was handed over to the only person who could be close to him to take care of Agota and stayed in Svalbard.

Shi Wu promised that he would return to this place in a year's time, when the two of them would build their own greenhouse in New Ålsund, so that they would not have to fly overseas every month to buy goods. Agota is naturally full of expectations for the future life of the flower girl, but not far away, waving at the Xingzhou Gate that is gradually closing upward, she only cares about one thing:

"Bika and I are here waiting for you to come back, this time, don't let me down again."

It took Gabr 12 minutes to reach the depth he had dived with the help of a rope, but it took him 15 hours to return to the surface. The reason is that floating too quickly from that depth exposes the body to a number of health risks, such as decompression sickness and nitrogen anesthesia due to excess nitrogen in the brain.
