Chapter 182 Habits

This time we returned to the base, we learned from the experience we had last time, and we no longer took a car, but no matter how the helicopter rotated or stopped, we would sit from beginning to end. After all, the spies from the Vietnamese army would not see through. If the helicopter could hide their eyes, then we soldiers hiding in the helicopter would not be able to see it.

More than two hours later, the helicopter passed by several times and finally returned to the base before dawn. As soon as we got off the plane, we saw Zhengxian Yang and Lin Xue waiting for us on the tarmac accompanied by several guards. I think that if it weren't for the discipline, all the soldiers of the Special Reconnaissance Brigade would have run out to greet us.

"Battlefield Commander Cui!" Political Commissar Yang walked up and held my hand tightly and said, "It was a good fight! It was a great fight. The superiors fully affirmed our results! They also praised us as the pioneers of our special forces and the leaders of special tactics!"

"Congratulations, Battalion Commander Cui!" Lin Xue also held my hand and said, "This battle fully proves that the tactics you proposed can stand the test of actual combat. Not only have you trained an unprecedented force for our army, but more importantly, you have created a brand new field for our army..."

I smiled embarrassedly: "This is not all my credit, it's my victory, it's your victory, right? Are you praising me like this... Are you praising yourself in a corner?"

With a coaxing sound, all the soldiers around him laughed.

"We won't talk about this!" Political Commissar Yang laughed and said, "Comrades, I have worked hard, so go back and rest first! By the way, the kitchen team has prepared food for you. Let's go to the cafeteria to celebrate the merits! Ah!"

"Okay!" The soldiers cheered and ran towards the cafeteria.

In fact, the problems that we cadres are worried about are exactly what the soldiers are worried about, especially some of our troops have worked as scouts, such as my deputy captain is still an old scout. So they are very clear that our current training plan and tactics have never been used before.

Can these trainings work on the battlefield? Will this tactic be just a paper talk? These doubts have always been in the hearts of the soldiers. However, as soldiers, they can only train according to my orders, and they don’t have much say, so no one has ever said anything.

It was not until this time that they truly gave up a big rock in their hearts, because facts have proved that their worries are unnecessary. This tactic is not only useful on the battlefield, but also fully recognized by superiors. This... is the greatest reward for the hardships we have paid during this period and the pain of not being able to recognize our relatives.

What surprised me and the soldiers was that when we came to the cafeteria, we found that the soldiers from the special reconnaissance brigade who did not participate in the war were already waiting inside. As soon as we stepped into the cafeteria, warm applause sounded crackling in the entire hall. Liu Yun, Ariel Chen and other female soldiers rushed forward to each of us with a big flower on their chests. However, Liu Yun had a little selfishness and rushed to me at the front, as if he was afraid that other female soldiers would take away the power to wear flowers for me. It only made me feel a little funny.

"Comrades!" Taking advantage of this opportunity, Political Commissar Yang held a small trumpet and shouted loudly at the soldiers: "We have won a big victory! With a unit of 110 people, the infantry of one artillery battalion and two platoons of the Vietnamese army were completely defeated in just fifteen minutes, and even stopped the reinforcements of the Vietnamese motorized troops. According to the latest news from our military spies, the artillery battalion of the Vietnamese Japanese was extremely injured. The bodies were loaded with more than 30 vehicles, and the number of casualties was at least more than 300. Our army only sacrificed one person and slightly injured three people. This is a miracle in the history of our army's war, and it is the pride of our special reconnaissance brigade! Comrades! For the victory of the heroes, for the sacrificed soldiers, for the victory of our flag, for our special reconnaissance brigade, for our motherland... do it!"

"Dry!"

With the soldiers' response, I suddenly realized that there was a large bowl of poured rice wine on the table in front of me, and there were several jars of wine in the center of the table.

By the way, our special reconnaissance brigade never allows drinking, just to worry that alcohol will numb our nerves and affect our reaction speed, etc. But of course, there are times when it is made, such as now... so I don't care. I raised the big bowl with the soldiers and ran it all out!

"Comrades!" Then Political Commissar Yang shouted to us: "Receive the notice from our superiors. In order to commend you for your achievements, our superiors will grant you three days off, so let's go and drink! Today we are not drunk!"

"good!"

"Don't get drunk!"

...

Hearing this, the soldiers couldn't help but screamed excitedly, and then the soldiers of the cooking squad served up one pot after another. There were all kinds of chicken, duck, fish and meat. Later, there were even a few dishes such as shrimp, crab, and turtle. By the way, the food in our special reconnaissance brigade was already very good. After all, the training we received consumes a lot of physical energy and must supplement nutrition, right? So we are not rare in daily life, but this is the first time we have seen shrimp, crab and other dishes. These dishes may not be big in modern times, but in this era, they can be said to be a luxury. Even if it is during the Chinese New Year, ordinary people may not be able to eat them. This shows the attitude of our superiors towards our victory this time.

After a few bowls of rice wine, the atmosphere quickly became active. The soldiers held wine to celebrate each other, especially those who had just come down from the battlefield, who were besieged by other soldiers, and the wine came one by one. It was nothing to drink. We soldiers who had been on the battlefield almost every day were not afraid of death, and were also afraid of drinking a few bowls of wine? It was a pity that the table of good dishes, and the wine was so full that it couldn't eat any dishes...

How great would it be if those old comrades in the fight against the United States and aid Korea also had such treatment? I couldn't help but feel sad when I looked at the table full of delicious dishes. After sighing, I found an excuse to walk out of the canteen door alone with a cigarette in my mouth.

The stars are falling outdoors, and the starlight covers the whole world like a thin layer of frost sprinkled in the sky, covering the whole world, houses, trees, rivers... all like a layer of translucent veil is covered with. A cold wind blows, causing nearby leaves to rustle, and only shocks the sleeping insects to scream again.

I looked back at the canteen where the wine was still coming from behind, and I couldn't help but feel like a different life. Heroes, wars, murders... These are so far away and unrealistic for me in modern times, but now they are so real, and I'm even a little accustomed to being numb. When will I end all this and return to my normal life? If I can go back to modern times, can I still integrate into the modern life?

"Captain Cui!" While my head was thinking randomly under the influence of alcohol, Lin Xue's voice came from beside me: "Why did you come out alone? Are you unable to think about anything?"

"No...no!" I felt a little guilty.

"Let's have a walk!" Lin Xue sighed and walked to me. After a long time, she said to herself, "I don't know if I should say some words...I, that..."

Lin Xue hesitated for a while before finally gritting her teeth and said, "I hope you don't misunderstand that I am a member of your mother's generation at my age. But I really have a very strange feeling for you..."

Since he had already started, Lin Xue stared at me without hesitation and said, "You are too similar to a person, whether it is your words, deeds, styles, or the actions of raising a gun... Everything is exactly the same as him, and even the posture of drinking water is... When you drink water with him, you are used to using the right opposite of the handle of the teacup. The tactical methods proposed are all imaginative but very practical. I... I want to know what's going on? Are all these coincidences? All so many coincidences happen to you alone?"

I was stunned when I heard this. I did have this habit when drinking water. It was mainly because I always shared tea cups with my roommates in college, so I always used the right part of the cup handle, which is the least commonly used part of others. Since then, this habit has been following me, even if I use a cup alone. I didn’t expect that Lin Xue was so careful that she could even pay attention to such a small movement.

But this seems not surprising. She was originally an observer, right? Her job was to observe the situation and status of the soldiers and then make analysis, but this was exactly where she was suffering...

"It's really just a coincidence!" I dared not look at Lin Xue's sharp eyes, because I felt that she could see through my thoughts, and felt that she could strip all my disguise and uncover my secrets nakedly.

"I don't believe it!" Lin Xue stared at me with her eyes tightly, shook her head excitedly and said, "Although I don't know what happened to you, I believe you are him. It's impossible for the two of them to be similar to this level..."

"Wei!" Lin Xueqing couldn't help but hold my hand and said, "Tell me, are you Cui Wei? Is it Captain Cui? Tell me... What happened? I have been guilty of you for so many years and suffering for so many years. Don't let me..."

"Mom! You..."

Just when I didn't know how to answer, a voice interrupted Lin Xue's words.
