In the afternoon, the team moved to the Tigram Basin.

Werner complained: "I can't believe that we have dug trenches here and prepared to camp for months, but they have moved us at a word!" ”

"I heard they're looking for oil, aren't they, Captain?" Alfredo asked.

Qin Chuan's company is a close protection exploration team, so there is no secret at all.

"Yes!" Qin Chuan replied.

Alfredo looked at the endless desert around him and scolded, "Fuck it, we're probably going to be here for a few years!" ”

"Why?" Werner asked, confused.

"Don't you understand?" Alfredo replied: "We are the only force that can get close to the exploration team, and for the sake of secrecy, they can't use us for rotation!" ”

"You mean to say......" Werner asked, incredulously, "and we're going to do this until they find the oil?" ”

"Exactly!" Alfredo replied, "Our mission is to accompany them to find oil, but look here...... Is this like a place where there is oil? I don't know what the fuck any idiot would think of looking for oil here?!! ”

Kuhn looked at Qin Chuan, and he knew that the idea was proposed by Qin Chuan.

"That idiot you're talking about is me, Alfredo!" Qin Chuan said.

There was silence in the carriage, and then suddenly there was a "haha" laugh, and even Alfredo couldn't help it.

"Hug ...... Sorry, Captain! Alfredo laughed and said breathlessly, "I, I don't know......"

"Of course you don't!" Qin Chuan said: "If you know, then you will be trampled on the soles of your feet by me now!" ”

The soldiers burst into laughter again.

The march on the desert road was relatively fast, and the convoy entered the Timlage basin before dark in just over an hour.

Then, as before, the soldiers of the First Rank Corps were divided into several parts to guard the perimeter, including the engineers, radar troops, exploration team, and Qin Chuan's guard company.

When night falls, the exploration team always lights a fire, and Professor Buckhouse's assistant Hans takes out his violin and plays a minuet, and then a group of people dance happily around the fire.

At this time, Qin Chuan would chat with a few of his subordinates dozens of meters away from the fire, and occasionally look in the direction of the fire with envy.

"Come on, Captain!" Professor Buckhouse shouted at Qin Chuan, "Let's see how you dance!" ”

"Oh no!" Qin Chuan replied: "Thank you!" I'm fine here! ”

When they get tired of dancing, the members of the exploration team will sit around the fire while drinking and chatting, and some will even spread blankets around the fire to sleep.

"Captain!" A member of the exploration team shouted at Qin Chuan, "Can we hear about you?" ”

"What?"

"Please!" Hans exclaimed, "The professor told us that you are the 'legendary sergeant'. Tell us your story! ”

Qin Chuan couldn't refuse people thousands of miles away, so he could only walk over slowly.

"Are they telling the truth?" Hans asked: "You have defeated an enemy ten times stronger than us, and captured the French fleet of Toulon?" ”

"Yes!" Qin Chuan replied.

"Wow, what does that feel like!" Hans's eyes were full of envy: "I think I must be very proud!" Everyone is talking about you and complimenting you......"

"Do you want to know what it's like?"

"Yes!" "I want to be like you, and if I could, I would like to be a soldier," Hans said. But they thought I would be better suited to stay in the exploration team......"

"Then I'll tell you how I feel!" Qin Chuan interrupted Hans's words: "For example, now, when you sing and dance to music in front of the fire, when you sit in front of the fire to tell a story or discuss someone or something, do you know what I am thinking? ”

"What do you think?"

"Cannonballs, blood, corpses, and screams!" Qin Chuan said: "Because this is the consequence of the fire on the battlefield...... Enemy artillery will always shoot shells into the fire. The cannonballs would blast the fire into the air and sparks everywhere, but it wasn't all sparks, and there were many corpses of people torn apart in the air! ”

Listening to Qin Chuan's words, the eyes of the people in the exploration team couldn't help but reveal a little fear, and a few of them even looked at the pitch-black sky, as if they were worried that a few shells would fall soon.

"Of course!" Qin Chuan continued: "It's far from the front line here, don't worry about this, but if you've seen this kind of scene, a conditioned reflex will be formed, and it will make you stay away from the fire as much as possible." Even if you sit in front of the fire, your heart will twitch, and you will feel the urge to extinguish the fire as quickly as possible, or walk away...... In this case, can you still dance? Can you still sit here calmly and tell your story? ”

The people of the exploration team couldn't help but be silent.

"They're right, Hans!" Qin Chuan said to Hans: "You are better suited to stay in the exploration team, don't let the war ruin you!" ”

With that, Qin Chuan stood up, said "sorry" and walked away...... He couldn't stay by the fire.

The members of the exploration team were stunned for a while, and then they didn't know who started it, and several people silently shoveled up the sand to extinguish the fire.

The next day, Professor Buckhouse said to Qin Chuan, who walked up to him, "A moving lesson, Captain! ”

"What?" Qin Chuan didn't understand what Buckhouse meant.

"I mean, you said those things last night!" Professor Buckhouse said: "You made us understand the cruelty of war in an instant. ”

"It's not a good thing!" Qin Chuan replied.

"No!" Buckhouse replied, "Of course it's a good thing. You know, they tell your story everywhere, a sergeant, a corporal to be exact, but became a hero on the battlefield, do you know how many young people idolize you? Do you know how many people look up to you as an example? They all want to be you, and Hans is one of them! ”

"Oh!" Qin Chuan didn't know how to answer, he really hadn't thought about it.

"If it weren't for the fact that the exploration team is just as important!" Professor Buckhouse said: "I think Hans will join the army as well, just like my other students. ”

Speaking of this, Professor Buckhouse shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I lost my position, not because I didn't take good classes, but because most of my students joined the army and then ......"

Buckhouse spread his hands at the prospectors, "These are all my students!" If you had told me about last night, I'm sure it wouldn't have been like this! ”
