I had nothing to say all the way, and I even made a round trip in the middle, and I didn't arrive in Chile on the third day.
Apart from Lin Xia was full of curiosity, everyone else, including Zhao Jingping, looked worried.
Actually, I know what they are thinking. A few years ago, our country was saying that the United States and Britain were imperialism and still regarded them as potential enemies, but now they are going to help the British fight... Although they were at this time
We have long known that we are allies with the United States, but we still cannot accept such a big change psychologically.
Just like when Liang Lianbing knew that we were going to Argentina to be the military adviser for British guerrilla warfare, his face that was originally excited immediately turned dark: "What? Go to be the military adviser for British men? That is to help them fight?
I...I won't go!"
"Did I ask you if you want to go?" I said angrily: "This is an order. You have to go even if you don't go even if you don't go!"
As soon as I said this, the soldiers were silent. This is to tell me that they were actually thinking like Liang Lianbing and were unwilling to help Britain fight.
This was something I didn't expect. Later, I thought about it. A big reason why I didn't expect this was that I was a modern person, and modern times did not regard imperialism such as Britain and the United States as potential enemies as in this era.
"Battery Commander!" After a long time, Xiao Shitou said unwillingly: "Then...what should we do if we go to help the British fight and be regarded as traitors?"
I couldn't help laughing and crying when I heard this. My first reaction was that what happened to these guys? We are carrying out our superiors' tasks and obey our superiors' orders. What's more, one by one, another. At this time, Britain was still our indirect allies. Help them.
How could a traitor be in war?!
But after thinking about it, this may be really possible. You should know that the concept of ordinary people is just over one billion people is difficult to change at once. This requires a long-term process, and the government did not do this at this time.
Carry out vigorous publicity... Our relationship with Vietnam, the Soviet Union and the United States is not on the surface, and the United States still claims to be neutral on the surface.
This has led to the current phenomenon. Although we are actually cooperating with the United States, the people's concept of US-British imperialism is deeply rooted. If we help Britain fight... we might be considered a traitor by the people.
.
Thinking of this, I replied helplessly: "Don't worry! This mission is confidential, and no one will know if you don't say it!"
"Yes!" Hearing the words, Scar and others relaxed a little.
However, they agreed, but they still couldn't get through it psychologically.
I can understand this, and the agreement is forced to agree. But the difference between the soldiers in our country and other people is that the Chinese people need a kind of spiritual support to go to the battlefield.
It’s not clear what this is, but I have really felt the existence of this spirit in the years in the army.
If we really want to be more specific, it may be an ideal or a pursuit. For example, when we were fighting against the Vietnamese devils in southern Xinjiang, we would think in our hearts that we were suffering here for the peace of our motherland and our relatives.
.When Afghanistan fights with Soviet devils who are dozens of times stronger than themselves, they will think in their hearts that this is the need of the country.
Otherwise, who would be willing to risk losing his life on the battlefield for the permissible amount of more than ten yuan and pension of five hundred yuan that month?
Simply put, it is that spirit that supports us to persevere on the battlefield.
However, when the soldiers knew that the task we were going to perform this time was to help the British fight, this spiritual pillar suddenly disappeared, and instead replaced it with a sense of shame similar to being a traitor.
This makes our team seem to be no different from before, and they are still the same quality as these soldiers, but in fact they have changed psychologically. It is obvious that this change will directly affect the troops.
Morale. For example, at this time the soldiers will wonder whether to fight the British if they want to fight as hard as before, and whether it would be worth it if they lose their lives.
So I regretted it a little. When I was drafting the list, I should have brought the instructors, and used the instructors' ability to do ideological work... not only can it solve the ideological burden of the soldiers, but it may also help those British people.
Assimilate it!
Among them, only Lin Xia is not affected by this aspect, but it seems that this is not surprising. As a student, his thinking is a little more open-minded, not to mention that he has studied foreign cultures in the foreign language department.
It was 4:30 in the morning when the plane arrived in Chile. This was a habit I developed as a soldier or as a commander. Every time I arrived at a place or something happened, I habitually looked at the time.
And do some simple calculations and memories, such as how many hours it takes to walk this road, what things to pay attention to along the way, etc.
This proves to be quite useful on the battlefield, because sometimes it is often because I remember these small details that I can arrange my itinerary reasonably or even avoid dangerous times or dangerous sections.
After arriving in Chile, the atmosphere immediately became a little nervous, but I think this tension was not because the soldiers felt that the mission was getting closer and closer to us, but because the soldiers came to a strange country and a strange city.
Of course, this is not our first time abroad. We have been to Afghanistan before. But this is how people are. Afghanistan is poorer and behind us than China. The soldiers naturally don’t think there is anything strange when they arrive. But this
Chile in the times was much more advanced than our country, so the soldiers were attracted by the lights in front of them and the prosperity of the airport as soon as they got off the plane.
Even modern people are no exception... But my feelings are a little different. Facing these, I just had an illusion, or a familiar feeling, thinking that I had returned to modern times.
But we were just confused for a few minutes in the bright lights and wine. Soon we found the connector holding the sign of a certain tour group according to the original plan.
Then we were loaded into a car covered in canvas, which gave me a little smuggling. Then the car staggered for more than ten hours. It didn't arrive until it got dark again.
Destination…a deserted lawn.
"Why are you here?" Lin Xia looked around when she got off the car: "Aren't we going to help the British fight? It seems that there is no one here!"
I only said three words: "Helicopter!"
"Um!" Lin Xia quickly understood after I said this. A look of embarrassment appeared on her face.
This is too obvious. There is nothing in the deep mountains and forests, just a flat ground under your feet, which is an ideal helicopter landing point. In addition, the British special-mix fleet is on the sea, so we don’t take a helicopter and then grow a pair of wings to fly over.
?!
As expected, I didn't wait long before I heard a "tumbling" sound of spirals coming from the air. A helicopter quickly landed near us. You could also vaguely see several fully armed English on the helicopter.
The army is waving to us.
A group of more than a dozen people quickly climbed onto the helicopter and flew towards the direction of the sea breeze with a whistling sound.
As soon as we sat down, a soldier in British military uniform came up to shake hands enthusiastically. Perhaps because the helicopter was too loud, he didn't say anything, but just handed us a few cigarettes to express his intentions.
welcome.
What surprised me was that when I was lighting a cigarette, I found out from the light of the lighter that the British soldier in front of me had an Asian face.
But I quickly understood that this guy is likely not just Asian, but also Chinese who speaks Chinese.
By the way, we Chinese are all over the world. Although these overseas Chinese are even nationalities abroad, many of them can speak Chinese, just like Li Li.
If the British guys were going to arrange someone to receive us, then a British soldier who could speak Chinese like this would naturally be the best choice.
Sure enough, when we finally landed on the apron of a cruise ship, the fully armed British soldier took us into the cabin and said to us in stiff Chinese: "Hello, friends from China,
I am very happy to see you. I introduce myself. My Chinese name is Xu Jianping, and my English name is David. I am a Chinese from the UK. I am responsible for receiving you and being your translator!”
At this time, one of the doors on both sides of the aisle was poking out from time to time. The two British soldiers looked at us curiously with the dim lights. Occasionally, a few people shouted at the British soldiers named Xu Jianping: "Hey, David
!What are these Chinese people doing here?"
"They are our instructors!" Xu Jianping replied fluently in English: "I am here to teach us how to deal with the Argentines!"
"Instructor?!" A British soldier asked in a mocking tone: "Can the Chinese fight? I think they are here to perform how they get beaten!"
As he said that, the British soldiers around him burst into laughter.
Because I have learned English in college, although I can't understand a lot of words, I can understand it. Although the soldiers can't understand English, I look at the bad things about those British guys
The smile was obvious that this was not a good thing, so everyone's faces were filled with anger.
Among them, Lin Xia, she can be said to be the only person who can understand and be sure of what they are saying. Although she is an open-minded student, it does not mean that she can withstand such insults. But she obviously does not have
After experiencing such a scene, although I was angry, I didn’t know how to respond. I was so angry that my face was flushed but I could not do anything.
"Translation Lin!" I stopped and asked, "What are they all talking about?"
I asked this on purpose because I can't let others know that I know some English, even if it's just a little... Otherwise, I'll have to find an excuse to cover it up again.
"They said we Chinese people can't fight!" Lin Xia replied angrily: "They said we are not worthy of being their instructors, so we are here to perform how to get beaten!"
"Chinese friends, don't mind!" Xu Jianping hurriedly explained: "This is just a joke, they have no malice!"
"Yeah!" I stopped Liang Lianbing, who was about to rush forward to get along with them, and said to Xu Jianping: "Please tell them, don't forget that during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the Chinese and ** people fought for more than a dozen of them in one go.
The country's army also includes the British team!"
"Okay!" The soldiers couldn't help but clenched their fists and shouted, and the limelight instantly suppressed the British soldiers.
Some soldiers were even unsatisfied and continued to shout at Xu Jianping: "Tell those British men that my father is a veteran of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, he has captured two British prisoners with his own hands!"
"That's it!" Someone shouted: "It's not easy for us Chinese to fight? Ask their father how the British ace troops were wiped out by the Chinese team on the battlefield of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea!
”
Of course, Xu Jianping looked embarrassed and would not translate these words to his comrades, but Lin Xia did not intend to let go of these arrogant British soldiers. While walking, she proudly translated what the soldiers said in English.
All the British soldiers were speechless. They were so happy that the soldiers were all excited, and they were as happy as if they had won a battle.
After that, I shouted to the soldiers again: "Let me listen to them. We are here to teach the British to fight this time. Since they think we Chinese will not fight, let's kill them.
Do you understand?"
"I understand!" the soldiers answered neatly.
What made me a little funny is that Lin Xia, the little girl, even translated this sentence into English, and it was translated loudly. This made the British soldiers look at each other and realize that they seemed to have offended them just now.
People who should not offend can only be silently remembered in their hearts and never fall into the hands of these people.
However, Xu Jianping is still good at being a human being. When he assigned us into the cabin, he apologized to us: "I apologize to you for your behavior just now. You also know that they are all soldiers, and it is very likely that they will be right away.
They are about to go to the battlefield of Horse Island, and they need to make some jokes to release psychological pressure!”
"It's okay!" I replied with a mocking tone: "We all rolled out of the battlefield. We can understand the psychology of recruits who have never been on the battlefield. But my words will not change, among us**
There is a saying that people say, "Wo sweat more before the war, and less bleeding during the war." Do you understand this?
"I understand!" Xu Jianping smiled and nodded, "It's what you said just now to be punished to death!" (To be continued...)
