"Papa papa." The pouring rain washed through the forest, and raindrops fell through the cracks in the trees and fell into the mud.
One after another figures moved their steps slowly, and everyone kept their faces as calm as possible.
Ling Jie leaned against the trunk of the big tree, she looked in panic at Xiao Man who was tied only ten meters in front of her, the rainwater hit her body, mixed with blood and hid in the mud.
The heavy rain gradually intensified, and the entire air temperature suddenly dropped by a few degrees.
Xiao Man slowly woke up, her hands and feet were bound, her whole body could not move, she looked around blankly, there was no one there.
"Tick tock." The rain fell from the outline of her chin to the ground, and the corners of her mouth were cracked, with strands of blood seeping out.
The sound of the wind was blowing, and there seemed to be a strong smell of blood in the air.
"Srustling." There were slight footsteps walking around, and she tried to move her hands and feet, but she couldn't struggle.
Ling Jie was about to rush over to save her, but was grabbed by Zhao Qing who was behind her.
Zhao Qing said, "It is impossible that there is no ambush."
Ling Jie shook her head and said solemnly, "She's injured, didn't you see that both of her legs were bleeding?"
"I know, but why is she tied here alone? Why is there no one guarding her? Do you think the other party deliberately let her go to give us a chance to rescue her?" Zhao Qing asked again.
Ling Jie was worried, "Then what should I do? Just watch her lose blood and die?"
"Boom." The argument between the two was not over yet, when a bullet pierced through Xiao Man's shoulder.
Xiao Man gritted his teeth, trying not to let himself make any sound.
"No." Ling Jie couldn't hold back her breath, and called out loudly.
Xiao Man heard the voice, looked at the space where he was hiding, shook his head, shook his head very hard, "Don't, don't come here."
Zhao Qing covered Ling Jie's mouth and clenched her teeth, "It's a trap, Ling Jie is a trap, calm down."
"Zhao Qing, it's all because of me and my mistake in judgment that I let her go. I can't let her die. You cover me, and I'll save her." Ling Jie pushed Zhao Qing away, and crawled up the stairs persistently. forward.
The rain hit Xiao Man's face, she looked bloodless at the figure slowly coming into sight, suddenly a bright light flashed in front of her eyes, she shouted, "Don't come here."
"Boom." The bullet fell to the ground.
Ling Jie vigilantly rolled to the right, and bullets fell overwhelmingly.
"Don't come here, don't come here again, go back, go back." Xiao Man struggled violently.
"Boom." A bullet pierced her other shoulder again.
"Don't, don't." Ling Jie was forced to go back behind the tree, she hammered her hand, "They did it on purpose, they must have done it on purpose."
Xiao Man looked up at the sky, the rain was rushing down in her pupils, she lowered her head again, and shouted hoarsely, "Let's go."
Her roar echoed throughout the forest, drowning out the sound of rain and gunshots.
"Boom." The bullet pierced her waist, and the blood instantly stained the whole muddy ground.
Xiao Man knocked his head heavily on the tree trunk, and grinned the most heartless smile:
"Don't come here, don't come here again, don't, don't come here!"
Xiao Ye heard the gunshots, looked at the mist in the forest that blocked his vision, gritted his teeth, and penetrated the thick rainforest.
The clothes were torn, and the face was cut several times. I couldn't wait any longer, I couldn't wait, I definitely couldn't wait.
A reflective spot flashed past his eyes, and he set up his sniper rifle to shoot.
"Second brother, big brother is on the phone." A man walked up behind the man who was observing the situation.
The man picked up the phone, and before he could say a word, he heard the other party yelling without hesitation.
"Get out of here immediately, whoever allowed you to shoot and attack the people of Hua Country, get out of here immediately."
"Brother—" Before the words came out of the man's mouth, the other party had already hung up the phone.
"Second brother, what should we do now? Do you still ask Xiaoba to shoot?"
The man hesitated for a moment, his eyes gradually became sharper, "Shoot and kill her."
"Boom."
"Boom."
Two gunshots sounded at the same time.
The sniper on the big tree fell straight down, shot in the head, and died on the spot.
"Xiao Man!" Ling Jie lost her composure and pushed Zhao Qing away, not caring whether there were snipers around, and rushed to Xiao Man in a scrambling manner.
Xiao Man spat out a mouthful of blood from his mouth. A bullet passed through his heart, and the blood gushed out in bursts, which was very warm.
Xiao Ye dealt with the sniper and hurried back, looking at Xiao Man who was let down, at that moment, he was unable to move an inch.
"What do you want to say?" Ling Jie grabbed her hand.
Xiao Man pointed to Xiao Ye who was behind the crowd, and spat out another mouthful of blood.
Xiao Ye put down the gun in his hand, squatted on one side, "Say it, I'm here."
Xiao Man's voice was intermittent and somewhat unstable, "Alligator, crocodile, it's crocodile, crocodile."
"I see, don't talk, I'll take you out." Xiao Ye picked her up.
Xiao Man's hand hangs down, her vision is blurry, she smiles brightly, "I, quite, quite honorable."
Xiao Ye walked very steadily, blood dripped down his hands and wet the ground, "Those who can go to the battlefield are all honored."
"Sir, I, I didn't write a suicide note, can, can you bring me a sentence?"
"Do you want to tell my brother?"
Xiao Man shook his head, "I want, I want to tell Xiao Jing that although, she has failed me, I, still hope that she, her happiness. I will marry her in the next, next life."
The sound gradually disappeared, and the rain continued to fall in the woods, Xiao Ye suddenly stopped.
All the female soldiers behind him stopped.
With weapons in hand, everyone lined up and saluted.
The rain seemed to have stopped at that moment, but everyone's faces were still wet.
The helicopter hovered in mid-air, and finally descended slowly.
Pei Yi led everyone in the Iron Eagle Team into the black forest in an orderly manner, and the smell of blood mixed with gunpowder smoke came over his face.
"Deputy team, someone is coming." Cheng Chen pointed to the figures that gradually became clear in the rain, and after he was convinced that they were his own, he hurried forward.
Xiao Ye put Xiao Man on the stone, she has closed her eyes, the blood has stopped flowing out, probably all of it has been drained.
All of a sudden, the whole space was only left with the chaotic sound of raindrops penetrating through the woods.
"Clear and suppress." Pei Yi raised his hands high and swung them down heavily.
"People have already retreated." Xiao Ye's voice sounded muffled, he looked up at Pei Yi, and said again, "Southern Crocodile."
The rain intensified, and when it hit the face, it was like a knife scraping, and the painful heart was chilled.
Inside the Iron Eagle Special Forces, black cars drove in one after another, and at night, there was a downpour that made people feel bone-chilling.
Shen Chengfeng held an umbrella for Xiao Jing, watched her uncover Xiao Man's body that had been transported back, watched her put on the red eagle team badge that was just awarded to her, and watched her put the honorary special forces medal on her back. In her heart position.
Xiao Jing gently wiped off the dust on her face, it was already very clean, but she still persisted in wiping it twice, "Whether you want to be my aunt or my sister-in-law, why are you so spineless? Withdrew? Why don't you have the courage to tell them your purpose?"
In the coffin, the woman closed her eyes peacefully, her body became very light due to the flow of blood.
Xiao Jing stood in front of the car, with her head held high and her chest straight, and all the members of the Special Forces stood behind her. Everyone's clothes were soaked by the cold rain, and they saw off their comrades for the last journey with a standard military salute.
Take another look at this reluctant company.
Put on the shiny steel helmet again.
The beloved epaulets are left on the morning of parting,
Tears flowed down my heart.
Sweat and youth have dyed a river green,
Strong and blood coagulated into a monument.
Today, I will go away in autumn and travel with the wind.
I will remember who I was for.
For whom!
Under the high wall, the man sat on the ground decadently, and the rainwater flowed continuously from his body along the low-lying ground.
Xiao Yu stood in front of Xiao Ye and covered his head with an umbrella, "Go back, what are you doing sitting here?"
"Brother, I can obviously save her. I just need to be quicker, and quicker to get rid of that sniper, and she won't die." Xiao Ye held his head in his hands with self-blame.
Xiao Yu squatted down and took his hand, "It's not your fault, understand?"
"Brother, I'm too conceited."
"As I said, it's not your fault. Every mission is like this. We don't have the ability to predict. Once faced with this choice, you should be very clear that we have to give up rescuing our comrades."
Xiao Ye slammed his head against the wall, "I know I should give up, but I can't give up."
"Get up, you let me down, we are soldiers, not losers, stand up."
Xiao Ye stood up slowly supporting the wall, his hands clenched into fists.
"They are all newcomers. They don't know how to choose in that situation. They even wish to risk their lives to rescue their teammates. But Xiao Ye, you know very well that there is only one choice."
"Brother, I can't do it. Even if I have only one breath left, I will bring them back alive."
"The more you care about it, the more cruel the other party will kill her. Obviously, she can be killed with one shot, but she is forced to take seven shots, each shot hits a fatal place, each shot It's all stuck in the bone."
"Brother—"
"The enemy will not be merciful because of our begging, let alone be moved by our spirit of going forward and continuing. What they want is for you to rush to the guns one by one, and then let her watch her comrades die innocently. Xiao Ye, war is cruel, human nature is ugly, the only thing we can do is wipe out all of them, do you understand?"
Xiao Ye stood up straight, gritted his teeth, "Yes, big brother."
"I have sent people to monitor the situation in the Black Forest for 24 hours. If there is any disturbance, I will let them know the anger of our Huaguo soldiers."
"yes, Sir."
Xiao Yu took out a handkerchief and wrapped it around Xiao Ye's hand twice, "Go and bandage it well, our hands are for holding guns, not hitting walls, go ahead."
Xiao Ye walked through the alley, and when he walked out of the alley, he saw a motionless figure standing in the corridor.
Xiao Jing turned her back to Xiao Ye, and looked at the door in front of her expressionlessly.
There was a "creak" sound of the old wooden door, and she pushed the door open.
The room was a little dark, she turned on the light, some books were neatly placed on the small table, there was a small desk lamp, and two or three pens were scattered beside the desk lamp.
Xiao Ye entered the room together.
Xiao Jing glanced at the people behind her, sat on the chair, opened the drawer, "You haven't gone back yet?"
"You are the one who should go back." Xiao Ye stepped forward to prevent her from opening the drawer, "Stop looking, go back."
"The Special Forces have rules. They need to write a suicide note for every mission. I'll find out if this weak-hearted guy will obediently leave a suicide note."
"Don't look for it, she's for an assessment, not a mission, and she doesn't have a suicide note." Xiao Ye was still dripping, and he turned his head, "Fourth sister, are you sad?"
"I don't know, I just know that there is a mountain buried in my heart, and I'm so bored." After all, Xiao Jing opened the drawer. She looked at the scattered little things inside, and finally found it under a small notebook. an envelope.
There was also volcanic mud dripping on the envelope, and there were two words on it, which were particularly eye-catching: suicide note.
Xiao Jing laughed bitterly, "She still knows the rules."
Seeing her tear open the envelope, Xiao Ye stopped her and said, "Don't read it."
"Based on what I know about her, her suicide note will only be one sentence." Xiao Jing persistently opened the envelope.
"..." Xiao Ye wanted to cry but looked at the sentence written on the whole sheet of paper:
Hahaha, hahaha, hahahaha hiccup.
Xiao Jing read it word by word, "She hiccupped at the end."
"It's really ugly laughing." Sitting on a stool beside him, Xiao Ye suddenly felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness all over his body.
"Yeah, it's really ugly." Xiao Jing stuffed the letter into the envelope with trembling hands.
The wind at night was even more raging, blowing the glass windows one after another and making noises.
"Dong dong dong." Hasty footsteps came from the corridor, and the next moment, the closed door was pushed open from the outside.
Xun Lao pushed the door open and walked in, his expression anxious, "Just got the news, is he really dead?"
Old Qi sat on the chair with a solemn expression, the open window was not closed, gusts of cold wind rushed in, and the whole room felt an indescribable coldness.
Xun Lao walked around the house twice in a bewilderment, thinking to himself, "How could this happen? It can't be like this? Is it the Shen family's deliberate false news?"
Old Qi pinched the bridge of his nose, "I've already been sent to the cemetery, and I will enter the tomb at seven tomorrow morning."
"I just want to destroy their prestige and suppress their self-righteousness. I never thought that things would develop like this."
"Now you should think about how to deal with the Shen family's questioning. If something like this happens, they will definitely not let it go."
Xun Lao sat back on the chair, "I didn't expect the consequences to be like this. At first I thought that although the Black Forest is very dangerous, but these people themselves are well-trained elite troops, and they can still deal with such potential dangers. I didn't expect There were still casualties, and they were really killed.”
"What you say now is something to be said later." Qi Lao emphasized his tone, "If this kind of thing is used by someone with a heart, combined with the simmering relationship between us some time ago, it will definitely turn into you deliberately bullying Xiao Jing, so that you The failure of judgment by the direct leadership killed an elite in vain, and this will be dealt with."
"Of course I am aware of the seriousness of the matter, but let me put down my face and talk to them. I can't do it. Even if something goes wrong with the elite of the Special Forces during training, they are not as skilled as others, and I can't blame the commander for his lack of ability." Xun Xun The old man raised one leg, apparently not intending to lose his face and say some words of apology.
"Of course I know your pride, but do you think Shen Chengfeng will easily wipe this matter away?"
I'm at a loss for words, the tense atmosphere between them two days ago was already chaotic enough, now if I add another fire, I'm afraid it will burn someone.
"You are bullying his daughter-in-law now, and there is something wrong with your site selection. The Black Forest has been included in the special forces assessment blacklist. It is not a last resort, and no leader will personally approve the assessment at that location. And you chose that position."
"I just said that the female soldiers are not physically strong. If other special forces entered the Black Forest, how could there be such a thing as death?"
Old Qi remained silent, staring intently at the man in front of him who still refused to bow his head.
Xun Lao stood up with a groan, raised his head, with a haughty expression on his face, "If Shen Chengfeng still knew the military regulations, he wouldn't have come to question my decision as an officer."
Seeing him leave, Mr. Qi's eyes darkened. For a long time, the three elders have stood in the military as a trio, checking and balancing each other and supporting each other, forming an unexplainable undercurrent. But one day, a corner of the balance began to tilt.
Xun Lao walked out of the office, with his hands bent unnaturally, he hurried down the stairs.
The driver gave the coat, "Sir, are you going back to the house?"
Xun Lao sat in the car tiredly, "Go back."
"Knock, knock, knock." The knock on the door came again.
Qi Lao stood in front of the window, overlooking the wind and rain outside the window, with his back turned to the visitor, he said directly, "I want you to do one thing, and this thing must be done without any trace!"
-----Off Topic-----
Why should I see myself killed in battle on my happy day, my heart is a little heavy now, I need your votes to comfort me.
