Jiang Qing and Wei Jiang left the conference room, but General Qi called Xiao Zheng to his side. Ask him to sit down.
"You should understand what I mean, right?" General Qi said slowly.
"Which aspect?" Xiao Zheng had a smile on his lips, pretending to be confused.
"The military must establish its prestige. It must establish its prestige internationally." General Qi said meaningfully. "In recent years, we have made great progress in weapons. Our comprehensive military strength has also been significantly improved. But in terms of overall strength, we are still not as good as Russia and the United States."
"If you want to change this situation, you definitely can't do it overnight." General Qi pursed his lips and said. "But the military is confident that within five years, it will surpass China in terms of conventional military power and become the second-largest in the world."
"So, in addition to showing military strength, the actual combat level must also keep up?" Xiao Zheng asked.
This is like a cultivator. It is not enough to have only one cultivation level. He must have powerful spells to support his cultivation level. Otherwise, it's just a showpiece.
China currently has strong military strength, and in the near future, it will bite the tail of the US military. Therefore, in terms of actual combat, we must also show corresponding strength.
"You can think so." General Qi said slowly. "The rise of a military power must be triggered by one or two things. In recent years, China's surrounding areas have been repeatedly provoked. Due to many factors, we have not been able to take practical actions other than protesting. But this time —We are going to use the anti-terrorism operation as an excuse to slap those young people in the face!"
"Of course -" General Qi said word by word. "You know what? Ten years ago, even if all the casualties this time were us Chinese, the US military would not take us to play. They would not even give us a chance. They knew very well that this anti-terrorism operation was initiated by the Chinese military. The best time to threaten. Even if they suppress it forcefully, there will be no ideal results. They simply agreed. But they asked us to cooperate with their actions-"
"What do you mean-" Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly. "Are they going to overpower us in action?"
"This is a sure thing." General Qi's eyes flashed and he changed the subject. "Not only the US military, but also the Russian army will not miss this good opportunity."
"So, this time we go on an expedition not only to carry out anti-terrorism missions, but also to break through the suppression of these two major military powers?" Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
"We must fight against terrorism. We must also win the war." General Qi said word by word. "If you win, you will be able to kill others and deter neighboring countries. If you lose, the US military will become more arrogant, and those neighboring countries with US support will become even more reckless!"
Xiao Zheng understood.
This is not just a counter-terrorism operation. It is also a competition between the three major military powers in the world!
China cannot lose and cannot afford to lose!
After working hard for many years, the military department just wants to fly like an eagle today, and the dust will be sucked into it!
"It's so stressful." Xiao Zheng took a sip of mineral water and said hesitantly. "Can I not participate? You know, I'm very busy..."
"I heard that Xinao's factory over there was also attacked?" General Qi said meaningfully.
"You also know this?" Xiao Zheng pretended to be surprised.
"Don't pretend to be stupid. Of all the intelligence centers in the world, which one can provide more comprehensive military intelligence than the military?" General Qi said plausibly. "Our responsibility is to protect our country!"
Xiao Zheng did not refuse.
Of course he wouldn't refuse.
Such an important responsibility, even if it just requires him to be a cook and run errands. Xiao Zheng also obliged.
It is true that he talks about being a businessman all day long. But whether it is private funding to the Dragon Group. Or maybe in his heart, the identity he cherishes and admires the most is still a soldier.
Chinese soldiers!
This battle is a battle for the country.
The sword has been sharpened for many years, and it’s time to take it out of its sheath!
"Do you have confidence?" General Qi repeated what he said before. He knew that countless soldiers would definitely lose their lives in this battle. But the times have given this battle special significance. As long as you are a Chinese soldier, you should not retreat and cannot retreat.
Every time you take a step back, the backbone of the nation will bend an inch.
If General Qi was still in his twenties, he would also wear armor and go into battle to serve the country.
Unfortunately, he did not catch up with this great era. His whole life was spent in dormancy. I can't use my strength.
"I won't come if I don't have confidence." Xiao Zheng smiled confidently and arrogantly. "Don't worry. I won't embarrass China."
"Don't embarrass yourself." General Qi smiled slightly and threw a heavy hat to Xiao Zheng. "You are China's best soldier."
…
After walking out of the conference room, Wei Jiang and Jiang Qing came over at the same time: "How was it?"
"Prepare your luggage. We will set off in three days. Take a special plane to the combat base." Xiao Zheng said with a serious expression. "General Qi said that if you can't win the war, don't return home."
Wei Jiang grinned and said, "It's exactly what I want."
Jiang Qing frowned and said, "You will lead the team this time?"
"You still need to ask?" Xiao Zheng rolled his eyes and curled his lips. "Didn't the winner already come out in the last military exercise?"
When Wei Jiang heard this, he joked: "That's because you are insidious enough. Otherwise, we can defeat you in the first round."
"Tactics! Tactics!" Xiao Zheng glanced at Wei Jiang and said. "Thankfully you are a famous tactician in the military. Don't you even have this bit of common sense?"
Wei Jiang touched his burning face and said helplessly: "You underestimated the enemy..."
After that, he stopped talking to Xiao Zheng and went back to prepare his luggage.
As soon as he left, Jiang Qing stared at Xiao Zheng: "This mission is extremely dangerous. No one can guarantee that they can return home alive. Why do you have to go?"
Who is Xiao Zheng
He is the big boss of the shopping mall. A business elite with a net worth of hundreds of millions. Even if he joins the Dragon Team, there is absolutely no need to carry out such a dangerous mission.
In Jiang Qing's opinion, Xiao Zheng should stay in ENN and sit in the office, drink tea and read newspapers during the day, and attend high-end cocktail parties in the evening. He mingled with famous ladies and wealthy businessmen, and was intoxicated with money. Instead of fighting side by side with them, the soldiers charging on the front line, fighting for the country and the people...
"Do you think I'm incapable of carrying out missions with you?" Xiao Zheng teased.
These words were clearly a dig at Jiang Qing.
If he doesn't have the ability to carry out his mission, Jiang Qing and Wei Jiang don't even have it.
"This is our responsibility and obligation. But you are different. In addition to being an honorary instructor, you are more of a Chinese businessman." Jiang Qing persuaded him selfishly. "Why risk it? If you don't go, no one will dare to say a bad word about you."
How could Xiao Zheng fail to hear the concern in Jiang Qing's words? But he just smiled and said playfully: "If I don't go, who can keep you safe? I forgot to tell you one thing. In the mercenary world, I am the king. Just shouting my name can ward off evil spirits. Not holding it in your mouth?"
