Chapter 51: The Meaning of Living
Zhang Wen was not jealous, but just looked at the warm scene of the couple hugging each other for the rest of their lives, and had some feelings.
He was a child raised in a welfare home, and once upon a time, he was not even qualified to join the army and fight for the country or even sacrifice. But now, not only have I joined the army, I have experienced military exploits, I have friends, close comrades-in-arms, and even some people like me. And the war in front of him threatens to take away everything he has now, even his life. Death is not terrible, what is terrible is to see the important person in your life die before yourself, that is the most painful thing. That's why Jim Renaud is so scared.
Zhang Wen thought a lot at that moment. Now that he has those things that he has not had since he was a child, the more he feels that his heart is empty. Even though more and more people need themselves and care about themselves, they just feel that they are missing something, and they are not their complete selves. Maybe the after-effects of the magnetic storm have returned, but the feeling is so clear. And when Kerrigan broke out the final blow, he felt very clearly that Kerrigan was about to step towards death and leave them. And once Kerrigan's death becomes a reality, it could change his fate.
Why is there such a feeling, why is there a feeling of fate being pulled and intertwined when I first meet this woman. And the more time you spend in contact with her, the stronger the feeling becomes. Could it be that I really fell in love with this woman? But another delicate figure in my heart lingered clearly. If not love, then what would it be?
......
For the next day, Kerrigan was in a coma, and Jim Reynolds was always by his side, and the Blue Cats team was ordered to follow Jim Reynolds and rest in place and wait for follow-up orders.
The remnants of the original Qingjiang base have already been evacuated, and as for where they went, the Federation will make its own arrangements. At the end of the day, the change of guard troops also basically packed the important equipment in the base onto the ship, waiting for Jim to give a follow-up order.
The members of the Blue Cat squad who survived the battle are resting in the few remaining intact supply depots.
Although the supply depot was badly damaged, and the rest was seriously overloaded compared to a large number of troops, the original troops had been withdrawn, and the replacement troops did not have time or mood to rest due to the urgency of the task. So there were only a dozen people in the entire supply station bar such as the Blue Cat Squad.
The atmosphere is still a little warm, and the aftermath of the catastrophe makes everyone cherish every moment of good time even more.
Curly Mao Jie was the most excited, and first raised his glass and said: "Come, brothers, to celebrate......"
But before he could finish speaking, Nelly continued to say loudly, "To live, cheers." ”
Jack, who was completely robbed of the limelight, was stunned on the spot, and everyone raised their glasses and drank it all as if they hadn't seen it.
"Cheers!"
......
Curly Maojie drank the wine in the cup with a look of resentment, then glared at Nelly and said, "Hey, Nelly chick, why are you stealing my words, when will you learn to be humble and learn to respect others." ”
Nelly didn't even look at him, her eyes were above the top, "Jack, pay attention to your tone, you have to show enough respect in front of the chief, especially on this occasion, you can't say what the chief wants to say in advance." ”
Although Curly Mao Jie knew that Nelly was angry with him for pretending to be in a posture, and he also meant to joke, but his heart was very unbalanced, and he said with an unsightly face: "Respect? Nelly, yesterday you were mentally distracted on the battlefield and almost died, you are embarrassed to say that you are the commander, do you know that your lack of concentration may kill your teammates, or even kill the entire squad? Since entering the battlefield, it has been a month, have you ever commanded a decent battle? What degree should I respect you?" Don't forget, I just saved your life yesterday. ”
Curly Maojie's words made Nelly speechless, although she had a lot of words to refute, and could even kick him out with a violent kick, but because of yesterday's incident, and this month did not really play the role of a commander, let alone charge at the front line, so I was very ashamed, and I couldn't say anything about Curly Maojie.
"Hey, Jack, you can't say that about Nelly, she'...... Hey, what do you mean by that? Do you think Jack is right? Nelly is our commander and comrade-in-arms. Li Jing was the first to stand up to help Nelly speak, but when she saw that everyone else was silent, she was immediately angry and glared at everyone.
The performance of the crowd is obvious, what Curly Mao Jie said is indeed reasonable, after Nelly entered Tasanis, she did show excellent leadership skills, and arranged things in an orderly manner when assisting in the evacuation of the airport passage, and the refugees evacuated outside the passage were also in order, and were praised from above.
However, all the achievements of the Blue Cat team in the past month accounted for less than 10% of the evacuation mission, and most of them were fought down desperately. Commanded by Zhang Wen, they sacrificed their lives and forgot to die, and Nelly barely participated, but she was the biggest official among them, which made everyone's hearts somewhat unbalanced.
And yesterday she was stunned in the battle, if it weren't for Curly Maojie and Zhang Shan's quick reaction, it is estimated that she would not die and would have been seriously injured. Although Jack and Zhang Shan didn't say anything at that time, they still talked and laughed, but they had other thoughts in their hearts. Her battlefield awareness is really poor, fortunately the battle was basically over at that time, otherwise I don't know what serious consequences it will lead to. Thinking back to the whole month, the people of the Blue Cat Squad, including Li Jing and Aina, two medical soldiers, were fighting on the front line, hovering on the edge of life and death several times. And Nelly barely participated in the battle, but Zhang Wen ranked her first every time he reported his battle exploits. As a result, Nelly's merits and rank are far ahead of everyone. How can these desperate soldiers balance their hearts?
If it weren't for Zhang Wen being the backbone of the entire team, and indeed performing impeccable to everyone, it is estimated that even if there was no yesterday's incident as a fuse, everyone would be dissatisfied. After all, everyone came out to get promoted and make a fortune, and no one felt inferior to others. If everyone wants to mix up a citizenship, they may not be so desperate. A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and obviously, nine out of nine people here are good soldiers.
The scene had already cooled down, Nelly put down her glass and sat on the side, without making a sound, while the others sat or stood, or meditated, or sipped their drinks, and remained equally silent, the negativity had spread, and it could not be more obvious.
"Hey......"
Nelly sighed secretly in her heart, in fact, she had already discovered that although everyone didn't say it for the sake of face (basically Zhang Wen's face), she saw clearly who had more weight in the team. In the army, it speaks with strength and military merit, especially when it enters the battlefield, which is no better than the boot camp. These team members are all outstanding, and those with average ability, and the commanders who are not on the front line with them can't control them at all. A soldier who doesn't stir up trouble, has no personality, and has no ideas is a good soldier.
Forget it, it's time to come, and it's okay to settle it, thinking of this, Nellie is ready to stand up. But as soon as he raised his head and was about to get up, he was grabbed by Zhang Wen next to him and pressed back.
