Chapter 0966: Triumphant Return
At this time, the sky was full of bright moons, and we searched forward in the moonlight, and found that there were reefs and nameless islands all around, and I muttered to myself: even if the pirate gate hides on any island, it will be difficult to find it, because it is impossible for us to land island by island.
I couldn't help but glance at my comrades-in-arms around me, but they seemed to be confident, waiting for something without saying a word, I was embarrassed to ask, not to mention that the army also has discipline, and when performing tasks, it is not allowed to talk and ask questions casually.
Later, I found out that there is also a skill in searching for these small islands, first of all, the kind of small islands that have no grass at all, and I don't need to pay attention to them, because they are now on the surface of the sea, as long as the tide rises, they will be on the bottom of the sea, and under normal circumstances, such small islands are not allowed to be treated at all.
Secondly, even in the south, the nights on the island are very cold, and it is impossible to stay on the island for a long time if you have a bonfire or something.
Therefore, Staff Officer Bian has been observing the surroundings with a telescope at the bow of the boat, while Wang Chen is driving a rubber boat, first of all, he is driving around the surrounding islands to see where there is any bright light, if there is no bright light, then look for the kind of big island, although you can't see the buildings, but at least you can see the kind with trees.
After searching the sea for about half an hour, suddenly a fire appeared on a relatively large island in front of me, and it was obvious that it should be a bonfire raised by the people on the island.
I immediately became excited, ready to fight at any time, I thought that Wang Chen would rush away towards the bonfire, but I didn't expect that with a wave of his hand, Wang Chen immediately understood, avoided the front of the island far away, and drove towards the back of the island.
We landed on the back of the island, divided into three groups in pairs, and searched for the campfire in front of the island.
I was assigned to a group with him by the side staff officers, and I was repeatedly told that I must not act without his orders, and it seemed that the only one they were worried about was me.
We walked along the bushes on the island, and for about ten minutes, the bonfire on the beach in front of us had already appeared in front of us, and several women were squatting around the campfire, their faces were pale and trembling.
Around them, three heavily armed pirates walked back and forth with M-type submachine guns in their hands.
We took a closer look, and there were nine pirates on the island, and they probably didn't expect anyone to land on the island, so they didn't even put a sentry on the island.
Except for the three heavily armed pirates who looked at the women, the other pirates were resting in the bushes.
A burly man with a cigar in his mouth, who seemed to be the leader of the pirates, walked up to the women, and lifted their chins one by one, until he saw a younger, prettier woman, and suddenly picked her up and prepared to walk into the bushes beside him.
The woman struggled and shouted for help.
But all over the beach, except for the pirates, there are women who can't protect themselves like her, so her cries for help seem miserable and futile, because no one can lend a hand.
The pirate threw her directly into the grass, grabbed her by the hair with one hand, and opened his bow from side to side with the other "crackling", slapping her several times until she had a gold star in her eyes.
Then there was a "bang", and the pirate tore her clothes, pressed her to the ground, and was about to commit an atrocity on the spot.
All the pirates enjoyed this as a wonderful show, and even the three pirates who were watching the women surrounded them.
Staff Officer Bian immediately ordered: "Do it!" ”
Because this is the best opportunity, all the women are temporarily free from the threat of pirate guns.
"Da Da Da-"
"Da Da Da-"
The other comrades opened fire at the same time, and the three pirates with guns in their hands were hit first, and the other pirates were also hit as they were about to take their guns.
The pirate riding on the woman was startled, and was just about to grab the woman as a shield, when one of my bullets shot through his heavenly spirit cover impartially.
When a battle ended in an instant, the frightened families of the crew began to be stunned, and when they saw the national flag on our chests and arms, they jumped for joy, and pounced on us for the rest of their lives, filled with joy and sorrow, and tears welled up in their eyes.
In addition to our own dinghy, the pirates had two dinghies parked on the beach, and we took them back to the cargo in three dinghys, and the officers knelt down to thank us when they saw their wives.
After bidding farewell to them, we drove back to the destroyer in a rubber dinghy, and it was already morning, and the bright morning glow was already wandering on the deck, and after we boarded the destroyer, we received a warm welcome from all the officers and men of the ship.
By the time the destroyer returned to the port, it was already dusk, and in the distance, we saw many foreigners welcoming us at the pier, waving banners and holding flowers. This puzzles me, under normal circumstances, our military port is not even accessible to ordinary people, why do so many foreigners come here all at once?
I whispered to Wang Chen beside me, and after hearing this, the staff officer explained to us: "Just now, the captain and political commissar informed me, saying that the ambassador of the country had applied to the navy and personally came to the military port to welcome us. ”
When we landed, the ambassadors, on behalf of their governments, expressed their sincerest gratitude to us, and some of the female students not only presented us with flowers, but also came over to kiss us, which embarrassed us.
After the welcome ceremony, we were sent back to the branch by helicopter, and when we landed in the square, we were warmly welcomed by all the commanders and fighters of the branch!
Probably to boost morale, the dean announced on the spot that all the participants in the war had been awarded collective third-class merits, and that Staff Officer, Wang Chen, and I had been awarded individual third-class merits. To be honest, I think that for this operation, Staff Officer Bian and Wang Chen deserve to be awarded a personal third-class meritorious service, but I am a bit of a fame.
After the dean announced the list of meritorious service awards, he first asked Staff Officer Bian and Wang Chen to speak, and they were all clichés, thanking the training of the troops, the teachings of the leaders of the academy, the cooperation of the naval units, and so on, as well as the joint cooperation of the comrades-in-arms in the group.
Originally, as a commander and group leader, it was enough for the two of them to speak on our behalf, perhaps because they saw that I was a new recruit, and I was not among the special forces, the political commissar suddenly spoke two words for me, and in the thunderous applause, I walked onto the rostrum, and after thinking for a long time, I suddenly came up with a sentence: "This time to participate in the rescue operation, if there is the only person in this group who is not worthy of the award, that person is me." ”
As soon as these words came out, the air in the audience suddenly froze.
Staff Officer Bian and Wang Chen frowned, not knowing what I wanted to do? Under normal circumstances, my speech can only be thankful except for thanks, and if I say that I am not worthy, it is not a question of modesty or immodesty, and there is even a feeling that my superiors are shielding me.
Because I was facing everyone, with my back to the leaders of this hospital, although I couldn't see their expressions, but when I saw the expressions of the soldiers in front of me, I knew that their faces would not look good.
Although I regret it a little, since I have already started, I can't help but continue to talk about it, so I will describe the whole process of participating in the operation to you in detail.
I could feel that during my description, many of the fighters followed my emotions and fluctuated, sometimes shocked, sometimes nervous, and finally relaxed.
I finally said: "Heads of the Branch, comrades-in-arms, I am very clear about my personal ability, so in the process of participating in this operation, although I did not say it explicitly, I had a feeling in my heart that the heavens would descend on the Si people, and I even thought that it was enough to deal with some pirates without using other comrades in the group at all. But in the whole process of the operation, I realized the importance of organization, especially in terms of tactical coordination, the coordination of comrades-in-arms is the most fundamental to ensure the victory of the whole campaign! Here, I would like to thank the border staff officer who took the lead, because his presence has always made me feel that the motherland and my superiors are by my side, and I have always observed my growth and progress. I would like to thank squad leader Wang Chen, if it weren't for his real-time guidance, everyone here might not be holding a celebration party for us, but holding a chase meeting for me. At the same time, I would like to thank the other comrades-in-arms in the group, their full cooperation, let me deeply feel that no matter how high the individual ability, if there is no sense of teamwork, in the process of carrying out the mission, not only can not give full play to their role, but will bring disastrous results to the entire unit. The last thing I want to say is that when the battle is over, the first thought that comes to my mind is that although I am the psychological quality coach of the Branch, in addition, all my comrades-in-arms in the Branch have my inexhaustible practical combat experience, team consciousness and fearless spirit of daring to fight and win! ”
With that, I took a step back and solemnly gave a military salute to the audience.
At this time, I heard the applause of the leaders of the branch behind me, and the officers and soldiers in the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause and cheers, which moved me to tears.
Finally, the dean made a concluding speech, and he expressed his heartfelt appreciation for my speech, and later I realized that what the army pays the most attention to is the spirit of collectivism and the meaning of coordinated operations.
The officers and men of the branch knew my ability, but my speech undoubtedly showed how small my individual ability was compared with the collective strength, and this made the other soldiers realize that in the course of carrying out their tasks in the future, they must be in unison, obey the command in all actions, and only by relying on the collective strength can they win the battle.
After the welcome ceremony, the branch leaders invited us to have dinner in the cafeteria, and then gave us a night off, which means that we can rest during the evening class, but tomorrow morning we must start normal training like everyone else.
After the lights out horn blew at night, I took out the mobile phone I had just returned to us, and was about to send a text message to Song Nina, but I didn't expect her to sneak in, so excited that I didn't wait for her to take off her clothes, and directly dragged her into the quilt.
