The strongest rocket soldier

Chapter 288 He's Back
"It's him, he's back, he's really back." Lu Xiaoqiang looked at Ding Xiaojun who was doing homework, with a smile on his face, yes he's back, this isn't just someone coming back.

After more than two hours, the job was completed, and the missile that had just finished the job was about to be loaded into the vehicle. Ding Xiaojun put the toolbox away, walked up to Lu Xiaoqiang, stood at attention, and saluted: "Report to Comrade Battalion Commander, first-class non-commissioned officer Ding Xiaojun , was ordered to return and report to you now."

"Okay, okay, it's good to be back." Lu Xiaoqiang was not too excited. In his opinion, it was normal for Ding Xiaojun to come back.

"Battalion Commander, I..." Ding Xiaojun wanted to ask about Yan Guanliang, but seeing Lu Xiaoqiang's tired face, he held back in the end.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Ding Xiaojun hesitated to speak, Li Xiaoqiang couldn't help asking.

"It's okay, I'm going to look at the test data." Ding Xiaojun knew that he couldn't stay any longer.

"Well, you go, I still have to direct the loading." After Lu Xiaoqiang replied to Ding Xiaojun, he stopped asking Ding Xiaojun.

……

"Brigade Commander He, we destroyed the opponent's launch unit again. Next, shall we continue to attack and destroy their technical unit as well?" In a dense forest, there is a camp with a camping tent as the command center. In the camp, in the big tent in the middle of the low-lying land, a major officer reported to Colonel He Weijun.

Technical units, they have to go deep into their camps. In that case, it will not be beneficial to our special forces. We should get rid of all their launch units, which is more direct and effective. Without launchers, even powerful guns Toothless tiger, in that case, we still won.

"Brigade Commander, if this is the case, are we going to bully people too much? Now there are only one and a half of the opponent's six launch battalions. Should we leave some room for the opponent?" The major officer listened to He Xuejun's words , I also feel that this is the most simple, direct, and labor-saving thing.

He Weijun lit a cigarette and hung it on his mouth. Looking at the scene outside the tent, he lit the cigarette and took a puff. After exhaling a puff of gray smoke, He Weijun turned around: "The mission itself is For what, you have to remember that no one can lose a war, and we can’t afford to lose. If it is us, we are in the position of the other side. Just imagine, in such a situation, the enemy will give them a chance ?"

The major officer sighed: "In the war, the armies of both sides will use all possible means to win, no matter whether it is light or dark, but if it ends in such a hasty way, it should not be what the upper-level leaders want to see."

"War itself is cruel. As soldiers, we reject war, but when war comes, all we can do is to achieve absolute victory in war. The exercise itself is also war. We can't decide right or wrong, we can only do our best. Military duty, go ahead and inform our special operations team to do our best to get rid of the one and a half launch units, the longer the war drags on, the worse it will be for us." He Weijun turned around once after entering, and looked at the scenery outside.

"Yes, brigade commander!" The major officer finished his report, saluted the army, and turned to leave.

"Is this the result I want to see? Sharp blades also need to be sharpened. Why don't I want to have an evenly matched opponent?" He Weijun thought, and spit out another cloud of smoke, making his expressionless face Even more lonely.

……

"Reporting to the battalion commander, the front battle report, our only two remaining technical battalion brother units are gone, except for the only two launch vehicles here, and the corresponding two delivery platoons of the launch unit, we have no combat power here. It's gone." The correspondent ran to Lu Xiaoqiang and reported.

"We are finished, no, this is impossible, how could we be finished like this, we still have the power to fight, notify the whole battalion soldiers, lead the guns to fight, our second battalion has no main battle weapons, but we still have guns, Go ahead and report to your superiors, the soldiers of the Second Battalion will fight in the form of infantry." Lu Xiaoqiang looked desperate.

With the sound of '咻', the atmosphere of the Second Integrated Technology Battalion, which was already in a state of combat readiness, became even more tense. In the middle of the camp, the three companies quickly gathered in place.

Lu Xiaoqiang walked to the front of the team and raised his hands to salute the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion in silence. This salute lasted for a long time, so long that the soldiers in the team in front of him felt heavy.

"Brothers, I have to tell everyone a bad news. Just a few minutes ago, the superiors sent a battle report that our brothers in the launch camp are gone, and our missiles have crawled into their nests, but we can't just give up like this. Because we are soldiers, we have no choice in the face of war, although we are a technical battalion, we also have guns, brothers, brothers, I, Lu Xiaoqiang, on behalf of those brother units that are not here, I am here to see you off."

Lu Xiaoqiang's words were very soft, but everyone present heard them, and the atmosphere became even heavier, so heavy that it seemed as if they could hear the panting of the team.

"Bring it up!" Lu Xiao stretched out his hand and waved behind him, and a few veterans just behind him came in carrying a few boxes.

"These are the bullets just issued by the brigade. Each person has two magazines. They line up to get them one by one." Lu Xiaoqiang looked at all the people in the team, his gaze became stiff.

In the front row, the soldiers were speechless, they lined up consciously and walked to the side of the box, took the clips, and walked back. Everyone was very silent, and even some soldiers who had received the bullets walked away. After returning to the team, he took out his usual notebook from his backpack and began to write his last words.

This scene is a little sad, no, not a little, but very sad, what is war, what does war mean to soldiers, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice.

When everyone finished collecting the magazines, Lu Xiaoqiang also turned around and took a Type 05 submachine gun. After taking the magazines, he put the gun on his back and looked at the silent team again.

"In this life, I can be brothers with everyone. I have no regrets. Correspondent, take out our battalion flag, and we will swear for the last time." After Lu Xiaoqiang gave the order, the correspondent returned to the barracks warehouse, and it took about 1 minute When the time came, he ran over carrying a banner.

Lu Xiaoqiang took the flag and planted it right in front of the team, then turned around, stood with his back to the officers and soldiers of the battalion, facing the military flag, clenched his fist with his right hand, and raised it up.

All the fighters in the team also raised their right fists.

"I am a soldier of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and I swear..."
