Chapter 314: Visiting the Squad Leader, Finally Returning

Facing the fire of gossip that burned between the two.

Chen Ming didn't know how the news got out, and how those officers received the news.

He didn't know how to answer this question, because he had indeed done something slightly out of line in the joint exercise of the three services.

That is, they secretly attacked the brigade headquarters known as the Baiyun Mountain Regiment, arranged for the captain of the helicopter squadron to fly high, shouted that the brigade headquarters was eliminated, and robbed the whole brigade of breakfast and baggage reserves, and looted their iron pots and cooking utensils.

By the way, he entrusted the 2nd Special Operations Battalion of the Special Operations Brigade of the 71st Army to loot the material reserves and food reserves of the 8th Division of the Tianshan Mountains, so that at most 120,000 people would go hungry for seven or eight hours.

Later, it was just the No. 3 baggage warehouse of the Blue Army.

He didn't do anything wrong with these things, can he still hold a grudge against a big fart? It's stingy.

Chen Ming smiled slightly, waved his hand and said stiffly: "It's nothing, I should have been moved by my heroic deeds of killing the enemy."

"They came to see me, and they didn't bring any gifts?"

"Hurry up, bring me a gift, I'm going to see the squad leader's situation."

"Gifts?"

"Nope." Zhao Haojie shook his head honestly.

Thinking about a fart gift, the leaders of the gang came over and their faces were darker than the other, and he suspected that if it weren't for the oxygen mask on Chen Ming's mouth, those people would have done it directly.

There were more than 20 chiefs before and after, and they didn't even bring a banana with them, and they had a gift of a hammer.

If it weren't for the obviousness, he wouldn't have seen anything wrong.

The company commander Wu Xueliang gave the two of them the task of guarding the door of the ward, waiting for Chen Ming to wake up and go to report.

I saw what happened in the past two days.

"It's really picky."

Chen Ming shook his head as usual, but he was privately planning when he would be able to leave here.

Obviously, his identity has been exposed, and the high-level leaders of the Western Theater have already learned the specific situation of this border battle, and the strategic assault division of the Eastern Theater, the leader of the newly formed 5th Battalion, known as the bandit brigade, has already been known to the other side.

He's in a dangerous situation.

Of course, there was nothing wrong with his strategic policy during the exercises, and no one could say anything wrong.

Due to its own surprise attack, the Eighth Division of the Tianshan Mountains may have lost a lot of people during the retirement season this year, and the number of places that originally remained in the team was also reduced a lot because of the earliest defeat, which affected the entire battle situation.

He was carrying all this debt.

What's more, not long after the retirement season, many officers still remember this grievance in their hearts.

I'm in a bad situation.

Thinking of this, Chen Ming smiled awkwardly and said, "Forget it, I don't expect those guys to send me any gifts." ”

"Well, they came to see that I didn't bring a gift, and they didn't leave anything behind? These are all my dear friends. ”

"But the words are left." Medical soldier Zhao Haojie nodded slightly, thought seriously for a moment and responded: "I heard them explain to the company commander, it seems that when you wake up, notify them." ”

"I didn't leave the other words, anyway, everyone's expressions weren't too natural when they left, Lao Chen, you really didn't provoke them?"

"Why do I always feel like something is wrong?"

"No, you're thinking too much."

Chen Ming quickly shifted the unpleasant topic, got up and put on the slippers prepared in the ward, and soothed his body.

Aside from some pain in the head and back, there was no discomfort elsewhere.

Then he stretched out his hand and pointed out the door.

"Let's go, take me to the squad leader's ward, if our company commander doesn't convince him, according to the stubborn temper of the old bear squad leader, he is likely to write his own discharge application."

"In view of his physical condition, the border guard regiment can't keep him, it will definitely be approved, I have a way to keep him, let's go and see it first."

"Is there a way?"

Medical soldier Zhao Haojie opened his mouth in surprise, but he didn't doubt it, to be precise, he didn't want to doubt, and he hoped that what Chen Ming said was true.

Xiong Jiuchang, the leader of the second platoon and the second squad of the second frontier company, did not know how he behaved, and none of the soldiers in the whole company did not know.

This strong man who behaves honestly on weekdays is extremely sincere, and always protects his comrades behind him every time he has a charge mission.

No one wanted him to leave the unit, but many soldiers were silently praying that he could leave the 2nd Frontier Company.

Because of the difficult environment of the border guards, there is really no way to keep the bear squad leader.

In six years, he participated in no less than ten battles, large and small.

He did the heavy task of guarding the frontier for the motherland, and he did it perfectly, from the company commander to the soldiers in the company, no one wanted him to leave the unit like this, take off his military uniform and become a civilian.

The company commander didn't want it even more, because of the arrangement for Xiong Jiuchang, even all the soldiers inside were watching, if such a respectable old squad leader would have to retire early because of his injury.

This is definitely a blow to the fighters of the whole company.

And that's just one aspect.

Those who have stayed in the border defense company for a long time and have not joined them cannot understand their love for the motherland and their determination to defend the frontier.

This is a faith carved into the bones.

If they left because of a fight, it would be too cruel for them personally.

If you don't wear a military uniform, you can't understand the pain and hesitation when you take off the military uniform on your body.

Heroes don't deserve to be treated like this.

This is the idea of Zhao Haojie, a medical soldier, and the idea of Wu Bing, and the idea of thousands of soldiers guarding the border.

Xiong Jiuchang is just a microcosm of the border guards, he may not be able to influence all the soldiers guarding the plateau, but he can represent them.

"Don't worry, I said that if there is a way, there must be one." Chen Ming responded confidently, looked around left and right and didn't see the military uniform, and estimated that the new military uniform prepared for him by the academy was also broken.

He was wearing a large hospital gown, which was also loose.

"Go, take me there."

"Okay, let's go."

Zhao Haojie looked at Chen Ming's face as usual, red and yellow, bright and subtle, knowing that his body was fine, and when he was transferred back to the hospital by helicopter the night before, Chen Ming's injuries were not serious.

The shoulder was bruised by a bullet and the back was bruised, which was already a very minor injury compared to the fierce fighting situation.

Seeing the three of them walk out of the ward, Chai Shuyao, who had been sitting at the door waiting, hurriedly got up, "What are you doing?" Why don't you take more breaks? ”

Chen Ming grinned and looked at his wife, only then did he realize that Chai Shuyao's epaulettes had been promoted from captain to major, and he couldn't help but sigh that this civilian promotion was really easy, but he had only been in contact for a month, and he was promoted from lieutenant to colonel.

He has been fighting for so long, and he is only treated at the deputy battalion level of a major.

"It's okay, I'll go to other wards to see how the squad leader is doing, and I'll be back soon."

"Well, then you pay attention to your body, and if you are tired, you can rest quickly." Chai Shuyao said worriedly,Zhao Haojie, a medical soldier next to him, swept his eyes between the two,More and more I feel that my guess is on the spectrum,These two people are definitely tired。

Chen Ming, this kid is hiding deep enough.

But it doesn't matter who the other party is, at least people care about Chen Ming, Zhao Haojie feels that he needs to say a few words.

"Chief, you don't have to worry, Chen Ming's body is solid, his injuries are fine, I am the medical soldier in the company, and it will be okay to hand it over to me."

"Okay, thank you, comrade." Chai Shuyao smiled lightly, looking generous and decent.

"You're welcome, chief."

Xiong Jiuchang's ward was only a wall away from Chen Ming, but his condition seemed much more serious.

The huge body was lying on the hospital bed, with a breathing mask on its face, and its face was pale, but the person was very conscious, unable to speak, just staring blankly at the ceiling.

The honesty on weekdays disappeared, leaving only a sluggish face, which was worrying to watch.

It was precisely because of his state that the company commander Wu Xueliang was worried that something would go wrong, so he came to talk to him last night about the transfer.

Thinking to reassure him not to worry.

Because you can't fool him, a veteran of the border company, only he knows his physical condition best, and he knows that there is no way to guard the frontier in the future, and he thinks that he has become a waste.

Obviously, the company commander's conversation did not play any role, and the old bear squad leader was very stubborn and did not want to cause trouble to the troops.

Chen Ming looked at the squad leader with this appearance, his heart was sour, and he waved his hand at the other two, and he carried a chair alone and came to the hospital bed to sit down.

As if hearing the movement, Xiong Jiu's long pupils began to focus gradually, and when his numb face turned around and saw that it was Chen Ming, the excitement in his eyes could not be concealed.

No matter how many people tell him that Chen Ming is fine, and the bald man is fine, but after all, it is better to see it himself.

Looking at the squad leader who was about to struggle to sit up, Chen Ming hurriedly leaned over and grabbed his arm: "Squad leader, don't get excited, I'm fine, I'm fine, come and see you."

"The bald man is fine, out of the danger period, well, and our second company has changed guards, withdrawn from the outpost to the border regiment station to recuperate, and the first company has gone up."

"Take care of your wounds."

Xiong looked at Chen Ming for a long time, and only nodded slightly after a long time, as if he thought of his situation again, and the brilliance flashing in his eyes gradually disappeared.

Whether the Second Frontier Company changed guards or withdrew to the station, he could not go back after all, and in the sub-district hospital of the Defense Army, the altitude was only about 3,000 meters, and he had to use an oxygen mask to breathe.

And he had to rely on the oxygen mask to recuperate for at least three months before he could barely adapt, he couldn't stand this result, and he couldn't stand the fact that he had become a burden to the whole company.

He was reluctant to be here, but he wanted to go home, and if he returned to the plains, he would not cause trouble for the troops.

Chen Ming looked at the squad leader's appearance, smiled, and said to himself: "Squad leader, the lungs were pierced by bullets, this is nothing special."

"You may just feel like you've been hit hard, and you can even say that there is no pain for about fifteen minutes in the first fifteen minutes of trauma, but you will be weak, the chest wall, pleura, and lung tissue and blood vessels will be damaged, and you will be constantly spitting blood foam in your mouth, and you will not be able to speak."

"After these fifteen minutes, it will soon cause chest pain and difficulty breathing, and in severe cases, suffocation and death."

"After the end of the operation, the recovery from treatment may take more than three months, but generally speaking, the penetrating lung injury can be fully recovered."

"The compensatory ability of the human lung function is very strong, even if a whole side of the lung is removed, it can continue to work and live as usual, but the contour of one side will be slightly atrophied."

These professional words were all spoken when he came to the ward just now, when the medical officer Zhao Haojie explained the situation of the squad leader to him.

Now it is used by Chen Ming to learn and sell.

He knew very well that in the face of the squad leader now, it was useless to say more comforting words, and this honest old squad leader decided that he was a waste, and it was difficult for him to listen to this kind of ordinary way of chatting.

Sure enough, listening to Chen Ming's crackling and inexplicable words, what he shouldn't have said, after coming out of his mouth, Xiong Jiu turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.

I want to see what he's going to do.

Chen Ming saw that it was working, and said to himself again: "I don't know if you still remember the story of Wang Shuaibing, it was what I told the night before the national birthday."

"This time, Wang Shuaibing also participated in the border defense operation, he fought very fiercely, even if he was forced to the snow-capped cliff by 20 cross-border armed people with guns, he never thought of giving up."

"Because he knows that his comrades are down the mountain, they need themselves, and they have to be strong."

"Wang Shuaibing has a squad leader, he is a good squad leader, he never puts on a fight, and he always rushes to the front to protect his comrades in the rear when he fights."

"He respects this squad leader very much, and he also hopes that his squad leader is not a coward."

"It's not that I'm a little injured, and I can't continue to guard the frontier."

"So what?"

"Could it be that I am a big country, with millions of troops, and only borders? Could it be that an iron-blooded man is so fragile and swayed by a small injury? ”

"Wang Shuaibing does not belong to the Second Frontier Company, and he may have to leave soon, but he also carries the responsibility of guarding the frontier no weaker."

"The Eastern Theater Strategic Assault Division is about to be established, and it is the only blue army division in the entire theater, and its mission is to temper all the army combat units in the theater."

"Let the comrades-in-arms, let the friendly and neighboring troops become better at fighting, more powerful, and deal with future wars, it is said that it is a strategic assault division, but in fact, the division headquarters is the director department, and it is just a name for the outside world."

"Then who is needed to set up this Blue Division? I think there may be a strong need for fighters with rich combat experience and actual combat experience to join. ”

"Only they can really pose a greater threat to the Red Army on the battlefield, bullying, and sometimes a kind of protection."

"Wang Shuaibing may be leaving soon, but he hopes that his squad leader will not indulge in self-doubt, his squad leader is a qualified soldier, the most needed instructor of the strategic assault division, an instructor on the battlefield."

"After all, it takes so much energy and military spending, so why do you want to build a blue division?"

"You may not be able to go back to the battlefield that belongs to the frontier, but the battlefield that belongs to the Blue Army is waiting for you there."

"Maybe the conditions of the Blue Army Division's garrison will be very difficult, the environment is very harsh, and I don't know if I am willing to endure this hardship, but Wang Shuaibing firmly believes that his squad leader is an iron-blooded tough guy, how can he be afraid of this hardship."

"There may be a lot more to the story of Wang Shuaibing, but I don't know if his squad leader is willing to go over to help, and he is needed on that battlefield."

"Ahh On the artillery field of the 2nd Battalion of the Yuanhuo 2nd Battalion of the Artillery Brigade of the 71st Army in the Eastern Theater, Wang Shuaibing sneezed several times in a row and aimed left and right.

scolded and scolded: "Which king and eight lambs are talking about me behind my back?" His grandmother's is really evil, and I always feel like someone is thinking about me these two days. ”

Chen Ming didn't know the story of his random name, which brought some trouble to Lao Wang, but after finishing speaking, he looked at the squad leader calmly.

Xiong Jiuchang's lips squirmed for a long time, and in the end he didn't say a word, but he was really moved.

When he learned that his lungs were seriously injured and he could no longer adapt to the high-altitude environment, this sudden blow was even more difficult to accept than his sacrifice.

All the words of consolation should be to tell him that there is still a place for the troops to need him, rather than having to transfer him because of his injuries.

He didn't want to be such a burden.

The strategic assault division is bitter and the environment is poor, can it be worse than the second frontier defense company?

The Blue Army Division took the mission to temper the Red Army troops, Lao Xiong's heart moved, he was indeed needed there, as Chen Ming said, the lung compensation function is powerful, even if he can't be on the plateau, at least in other places, he still has the ability to fight for the country.

Saying that the conditions are hard and the environment is poor is far more impressive than saying that the conditions are good, that food and clothing are not worried, and that it is suitable for all seasons.

Chen Ming knew that his time was almost over, so he committed himself to grabbing the squad leader's hand and said with a smile: "Then, in the future, you will have to go and see the story of Wang Shuaibing yourself, I don't need to tell it."

"Good"

Xiong opened his mouth hoarsely for a long time, although there was no sound, but he could see the shape of his mouth.

Chen Ming nodded, it is estimated that because of his injury, Chai Shuyao came directly by special plane in the war zone, if there were arrangements for him in the past few days.

Maybe he can take the squad leader back by special plane, as long as he leaves the hospital at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, his oxygen breathing will not need to be maintained for three months.

"Then, squad leader, I'll go first, and I'll come to see you when I have time."

Chen Ming got up to say hello, although this kind of practice of robbing people with the border defense second company is very immoral, but now he can't help it.

It is better to stabilize the squad leader's mood first and let him cooperate with the treatment than to be decadent all day long.

Seeing that Chen Ming was about to leave, Zhao Haojie and Wu Bing, who had been standing at the door of the ward, quietly gave a thumbs up.

said softly: "Lao Chen, you are really awesome, that Wang Shuaibing is you, right?"

"You kid is hiding deep enough, say, what are you doing in our border company?"

"Wang Shuaibing is not me." Chen Ming spread his hands innocently, he didn't lie, Wang Shuaibing is indeed not him, but Wang Shuaibing in the story is him, but he didn't say it so clearly.

"Ha ?!!"

The two were slightly stunned, daring to listen to it for a long time, or a story?

"What the hell is Wang Shuaibing, how could he participate in border operations? Is he the code name for a gun? ”

Wu Bing's brain-opening speculation.

"Ahh Nima, it's over, isn't it? Wang Shuaibing of the second battalion of Yuanhuo looked up at the sky, and his scolding tone was very unhappy, and the soldiers of the second battalion nearby looked inexplicable.

Chen Ming didn't have the heart to explain so much to them, anyway, he just said it to the squad leader, and the squad leader just had to understand.

He still has a lot of things to do next, Chai Shuyao is here, let's chat with him, and how to arrange it on the company commander's side and the academy's side.

His identity obviously can't be hidden, and he can't stay here, so it's up to him to see how he arranges in the future.

Anyway, he doesn't want to stay in the hospital any longer, and it's not safe to go to the border regiment, Nima, this is a headlong into the nest of the Eighth Division of the Tianshan Mountains.
