Chapter 73: Civilians Enlist

The helicopter dispatched by Lantian Hospital landed directly inside the provincial military district. Inside the provincial military district compound, there was already a large medical vehicle with two doctors and four nurses ready to go. After Zhanxiage boarded the medical vehicle, it would be secretly transferred to the Fifth Special Forces exclusive hospital.
Yan Jun and thirteen other Fifth Special Forces trainees who had seriously violated school rules and escaped would return to the Fifth Special Forces with Instructor Li Xiangshang. As for what punishments they would face, no one cared. To put it sternly, "If we can pull the war hero song back alive from the Russian battlefield, even if each of them gets eighty strokes and throws them into solitary confinement for a year or more, it's worth it!" ”
In front of the parking lot at the provincial military district compound, Zhan Xia Ge and his brothers from the special service company held a brief farewell ceremony. His body was still very weak, so he could only lie on a stretcher, shaking hands and saying goodbye to each brother.
Among these special service company brothers, some were business elites worth over a hundred million, some were national treasure-level researchers, some were powerful figures with smooth careers in the military, and some were newly emerging representatives of the political circle. They had already done enough and done well for the company commander Zhanxiage, and in the end, they took up arms and stepped onto the Russian battlefield.
Faced with such friendship, facing such brothers, when Zhan Xiaoge took turns shaking hands with them, he only said four words: "Brother, take care!" ”
"Big brother, take good care of your injuries. If you ever get up to trouble again, don't try to act bravely on the battlefield and become a lone hero! Drinking with buddies, picking up girls, fighting, causing trouble, and smashing other people's windows—what game is there not good for? If it really doesn't work out, I'll introduce you to a few super attractive girls, and their bedroom skills are top-notch. I'm sure after a round of wild excitement and turmoil, you'll feel great! Tao Tai, still tied to his left arm with a plaster board, noticed Yajie'er's hostile expression and glared at him fiercely. Tao Tai shivered, leaned close to Zhanxiage's ear, and whispered, "Sister-in-law's anger is no small matter. Big brother, don't be fooled by her quiet and gentle appearance. Back then, in order to find you, I used torture and forced confessions against several Chechen terrorists. To be honest, just seeing your hands now still makes my heart go cold!" If a surgical expert goes all out on the battlefield, he's the perfect spokesperson for the Grim Reaper! ”
Seeing Yajie'er approaching him with an innocent smile, Tao Tai immediately slipped away, "Big brother, I'm leaving now. If I don't comfort my four lovers soon, I'm afraid it won't be long before they become someone else's lovers!" ”
The soldiers of the Special Service Company, still smelling of gunpowder, said goodbye to Zhan Xiaoge and walked out of the provincial military district gates with their heads held high. They walked into the distance, repeatedly turning back and raising their hands in salute to Zhan Xiaoge. Watching those brothers disappear one by one outside the gates of the provincial military district, and seeing their sincere, pure, pure smiles on their faces, Zhanxiage felt as if something had filled his heart. How fortunate he was to have met such brothers who had shared life and death with him.
These brothers spread across the country were his most precious treasures and pride in life. But after this parting, no one knew how long it would take for the special service company brothers to meet again.
Seeing a trace of disappointment appear on Zhanxiage's face, Huang Zhipeng said softly, "Big brother, as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. The brothers have passed the age of fooling around. Even if we gather everyone again, I believe it won't be the same secret agent station as before." We all have the same wonderful memory: whenever any of our brothers need help, others rush to help, and I think that's really enough! ”
Zhan Xiage nodded vigorously. Huang Zhipeng patted her shoulder and said softly, "Big brother, here's a piece of advice: act when it's time to act." The sister-in-law is a good woman, and she's not young anymore. When dealing with the woman you like, you must never treat her like a saint, nor keep dragging her along to spend your youth with you. Sometimes, eating it first is also a way for men to express their feelings. As the saying goes, thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger. Be careful, your Yajie'er might lose control and be taken advantage of, and you'll be completely wiped out. When the time comes, boss, just buy a block of tofu and smash it to death......
At this point, Huang Zhipeng suddenly sensed something was off in the atmosphere. He immediately looked up and met Yajie'er, whose face was flushed red and glaring fiercely at him. Huang Zhipeng silently cursed, "Oh my god!" and immediately imitated Tao Tai, clutching his head and running away. Only after running one or two hundred meters did he dare to look back, folding his hands into a horn shape and shouting loudly, "Big brother, remember! If you're quick, you'll be ready. Act when it's time to act—storm into the bridal chamber in such a hurry!" ”
At this point, Huang Zhipeng spread his long legs and fled in panic before Yajie'er could truly lose her temper.
During the sniper attack on a unit of over 200 Chechen terrorists, Yajie'er wielded an M134 Vulcan cannon and single-handedly killed at least forty Chechen terrorists, then was the first to leap out of the trenches and pursue the already routed enemy. When she changed bullets and was surrounded by three Chechen guerrilla veterans, she performed a masterful dagger combat show to all the brothers in the special service company.
Afterwards, all the brothers of the Special Service Company unanimously decided to list Yajie'er as someone she could only befriend and absolutely forbidden to provoke.
After all the soldiers of the special service company had dispersed, instructor Li Xiangshang walked up to Zhao Haiping, watching Zhao Haiping, a simple and honest soldier who had fought fiercely with the war hero song on the Russian battlefield for three months, still not eliminated on the battlefield, and had quietly become a master of special operations. Li Xiangshang replied gently, "I've already read your profile. You're a veteran with ten years of experience. In the armed police force, your sniping skills are already outstanding, but since you only finished junior high, your academic background was too low, so you never got the chance to further your studies at the police academy. But after all these experiences, you've successfully proven your extraordinary strength to everyone." I heard the official appointment letter appointing you as an instructor in the Armed Police Brigade has been issued, and I'm just waiting for you to return and take up your post. Congratulations! ”
Li Xiangshang extended his right hand toward Zhao Haiping, but Zhao Haiping remained silent. This honest and honest man had inadvertently overlooked Li Xiangshang's hand reaching out to him. Instructor Li Xiangshang only smiled slightly and calmly withdrew his right hand, showing extraordinary personal refinement.
Zhao Haiping stared at Zhao Haiping, who was lying on the stretcher, almost reaching out to grab Yajie'er's war hero, his eyes red as he said, "Master, I can't bear to leave you!" ”
Zhan Xiage's eyes were red too. They had been master and disciple as before, and after experiencing dangers that most people could never face in their lifetime, they had long regarded each other as their most important fighting partners. Now, facing a breakup, the sense of loss in their hearts grew heavier.
Zhao Haiping suddenly shouted, "I don't want to become an instructor in some armed police battalion. Compared to my master, what I have is simply not qualified to be someone else's instructor." I want to continue learning from Master! ”
Zhao Haiping took a deep breath, looked at Zhanxiage and Li Xiangshang, and shouted, "I hope I can join your troops too. I hope to be like you, becoming the most elite special forces soldiers in China, and even the world!" Not to rely on the reputation my master helped me build and become an instructor in an unworthy armed police battalion! ”
Zhan Xiagege and instructor Li Xiangshang were both stunned; neither of them expected Zhao Haiping to make such a request. But after a brief thought, Zhanxiage's eyes lit up, and he also turned his gaze to Li Xiangshang. "Zhao Haiping is a good soldier. Although he didn't receive training from a young age like others, there are certainly gaps in his knowledge, but he is very focused and hardworking. After three months of real combat, it's equivalent to several years of training in classrooms and on the field. Combined with his rich combat experience, incorporating him into the team will definitely improve the captain's combat strength and survival ability in some areas."
Zhanxiage was absolutely right. Over the past three months, Zhao Haiping had accumulated nearly astronomical combat experience, reaching a considerable level in jungle guerrilla warfare and the design of strange mines. A professional soldier like him, who was constantly fired from heavy machine guns by helicopters overhead, gradually rising from the flames of war, often played a stabilizing role when the unit was under attack, leading everyone to effectively avoid enemy fire.
But Li Xiangshang couldn't help but frown.
The Fifth Special Forces only recruited members from within the military because these trainees, regardless of the individual, were intricately connected to the country and the military. They could be called "sharing honor and loss" together, and having received a good family education from a young age, it was impossible for them to betray their country or the military.
Zhao Haiping is just an ordinary farmer's son. If he were really specially recruited, it would represent a shift in the Fifth Special Forces' personnel system and talent selection. Once this gap opens, the ultimate result may be a problem that can be uncontrollably managed.
However, Li Xiangshang also thought of a problem that made it impossible for him to immediately refuse Zhao Haiping's request.
Zhao Haiping and Zhan Xiagege made a splash on the Russian battlefield. Although their faces were always coated with disguise oil, recreating their true faces through technical means was a piece of cake. After following Zhanxiage for so long, outsiders saw Zhao Haiping and the Fifth Special Unit as one and the same. If Zhao Haiping lost face, it was the same as the Fifth Special Unit being disgraced.
Zhao Haiping, after following Zhanxiage for over three months, did indeed learn too many secrets of the Fifth Special Unit.
After thinking for a long time, Li Xiangshang finally handed the question to Principal Zheng Xun. After carefully reviewing Zhao Haiping's profile, Principal Zheng said, "The reason we want to recruit soldiers is first to ensure the Fifth Special Forces' absolute loyalty to the Party, the country, and the people. I believe Zhao Haiping has already met these selection criteria through his own actions, right?" Also, when we recruit soldiers' children, we must start professional training from a young age. Only then can we have an expert-level special forces. Zhao Haiping, on the other hand, survived the Russian battlefield, which already shows he must have some extraordinary qualities, and in this regard, he seems to have no particular issues. ”
Seeing Li Xiangshang hesitate to speak, Principal Zheng Xun smiled and said, "Are you afraid that if I bring this up, trouble will keep coming from now on?" ”
Li Xiangshang nodded vigorously.
"Actually, I've been brainstorming a plan lately." Principal Zheng Xun gently rubbed his temples, his eyes shining with profound insight. He said, "After the ice board battle, we had long discovered a problem: no matter how much training we had, how many experienced instructors we hired to teach the trainees various practical skills and knowledge, for the trainees, these were just theoretical things after not having experienced them on the battlefield." On the battlefield, they often fail to integrate theory with practice in time, or pay insufficient attention and are easily overlooked. Many soldiers are wasted by the enemy because of similar problems. However, if we transfer some professional soldiers from other units with strong ideological and political stances, who can withstand organizational tests and have rich combat experience, to the Fifth Special Forces, and let them set an example, combining theory with practice, I believe our soldiers can reduce unnecessary bloodshed and sacrifice on the battlefield. ”
Once such a plan is implemented, for the Fifth Special Forces, it would be no less than a magnitude 9 earthquake. Seeing Li Xiangshang hesitate, Principal Zheng Xun smiled and said, "I know this approach carries great risks, so we can only recruit two or three soldiers, including Zhao Haiping, for the experiment." If the test results are satisfactory and feasible, we can reformulate the strategic plan and submit it to the Central Military Commission for approval!" ”
Li Xiangshang frowned and said, "But recruiting people like this into the Fifth Special Forces has varying abilities and technical levels. How should we train these special recruits?" ”
"We can try one-on-one training first," General Zheng Xun smiled. "Don't be fooled by the fact that you're the chief instructor of the Fifth Special Forces. But I think Zhao Haiping only knows how to serve Xiage in battle. Let Xiage be Zhao Haiping's personal instructor!" Since he wanted to recruit his disciple into the Fifth Special Forces, he should have put in some effort and sacrifice too! ”
With General Zheng Xun's words, the Fifth Special Forces finally opened their doors to civilians for the first time.
