When the war was in full swing in the south, all the border posts on the Northwest Plateau were also on high alert.
The yuebanwan sentry Cary, which has long been rebuilt and whose scale has obviously expanded, has been promoted to the company commander's high soldier, and is organizing all officers and soldiers of the whole sentry to mobilize for war preparedness.
In this low-pressure and cold, thin air, and the nearest frontier post to the sky, the officers and soldiers stood in two columns, full of energy and high morale.
The officers and men knew what had happened and what was going on in the far south sea. At this time, the company commander was about to arrange and say something.
"Comrades, needless to say, everyone must know." Gao Bing, standing in front of the queue, said with confidence: "in the south, in the South Sea, the huge aircraft carrier battle group of Sam country, in the name of military exercises, is in a strict confrontation with our aircraft carrier battle group. A large-scale war is imminent."
"That's not over." Pause a little, Gao Bing continued: "What's more hateful is that they actually sent special forces to illegally sneak into an island in the South Sea area and have a fierce battle with our special forces. Comrades, the battle has lasted for ten days. At present, the specific situation on the island is not clear. The officers and soldiers of our special forces are still fighting with enemies several times their own War. Comrades, this is no longer just a simple diplomatic issue, but a slight military friction. This is a provocation, a naked provocation against our country and army As a warm-blooded Chinese child and a dignified Chinese border guard, can we promise? "
"No -" the energetic and angry officers and soldiers roared with one voice.
"Yes -" Gao Bing almost roared: "If they want to fight, we'll fight with them. Who's afraid? But it's the soldiers on the front line who fight face-to-face with them. Unfortunately, our Plateau border guards can't go directly to the front line or fight face-to-face with the enemy. However, it doesn't mean that this war has nothing to do with us, so we can rest easy. Comrades, we are border guards Soldiers are the frontier guards of the country and the first line of defense of the country. Therefore, the more at this time, the more we should cheer up and be vigilant; The more at this time, the more we should stand guard for the country and put a good sentry for the people. Be cautious and devote yourself. "
"Be cautious and on high alert." The officers and soldiers roared.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Gao Bing immediately announced loudly: "now, I declare that all officers and soldiers at the half moon checkpoint will immediately enter the state of war and be on high alert. Even if they sleep, they should keep an eye open for me. They should be ready to deal with all emergencies at any time. Comrades, can they do it?"
"Yes -" the officers and soldiers still roared with one voice.
"Well, from now on, add posts and sentries, cancel all family visits and holidays, and go all out until the final victory..."
Just as the officers and soldiers at the half moon checkpoint roared and swore, two small and tired figures, thousands of miles away in the South Sea, in the boundless vast waves, were struggling and swimming in the rough waves.
It was Meng Lang and Xiao Yong who survived the three-dimensional fire blockade under the enemy's indiscriminate bombing
At that time, just when the fishing boat they took was overturned by the huge wave of naval guns, the two retired veterans were lucky to get back their lives under the fierce gunfire and before the dangerous gate of death by virtue of their exquisite military quality.
Those were originally only aimed at the two fishing boats, which were originally used to block the sea. After the two fishing boats were bombed and sunk one after another, they soon stopped.
However, the residual power of the ship's gun and the storm caused by it almost burst and tore the two veterans who had just fallen into the water.
After such a rampant bombing, they fell into the water one after another and soon fainted. However, they both wore special swimsuits close to their bodies, so they didn't sink into the sea immediately, but floated and drifted.
I don't know how long it took. When the sun just rose from the sea level, the cold sea water first stimulated Meng Lang's old injured leg and was in pain, so he took the lead in waking up in the cold sea water.
After a violent cough, Meng Lang gradually woke up, and then tried his best to check his situation. This is the survival instinct given to him by his long military career.
At this time, a red sun seemed to be struggling to get rid of the gravity of the earth and slowly rose from below the sea level. The red sunlight, passing through layers of atmosphere and endless void, is evenly spread on the sea. It is golden, beautiful and romantic.
However, at this time, Meng Lang was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
At this time, he was in the ocean, the rolling waves, it seemed that he could not see the edge, or even the hope of survival. How could he have the energy and mind to enjoy the beauty in front of him?
However, when he quickly regained consciousness, the first thing he thought of was not his difficult and dangerous situation, but the survival and safety of the other three comrades in arms who sailed with him.
However, at this time, two comrades in arms on another fishing boat had long disappeared. You know, this is the ocean where the waves roll and never stop for a moment! After the fishing boat was sunk, and after such a long time, it would be a miracle if it could be found.
However, Xiao Yong, who took the same fishing boat with himself, can still be found.
Because before they set out, they were tied together with a rope, one end for each person. Although the rope was long, there was always such a rope between them. In the boundless sea, this is very necessary, just like a lifeline.
In other words, as long as this rope is not broken by the naval gun, Meng Lang can find Xiao Yong at this time.
Meng Lang, who reacted quickly, immediately turned to look for the lifeline tied to his waist. He was gratified that despite the indiscriminate bombing of the enemy's naval guns, the lifeline that maintained himself and the squad leader was not blown off. It still existed and was still firmly tied to his waist.
Meng Lang quickly contracted the rope, but to his disappointment, the rope seemed to be just a simple rope, because it was very light and didn't look like something was tied at the other end.
The more it shrinks, the colder Meng Lang's heart becomes.
What's going on? Where's the monitor? It's not like that No, definitely not. We must be able to find him. He must still be alive. He must
In the cold sea water, Meng Lang could not help but speed up the contraction of the rope.
Finally, after the rope contracted by half, there was a sense of heaviness at the other end of the rope. Meng Lang's high hanging heart fell slightly. That is to say, at least, something must be tied to the other end of the rope, and it is highly possible for Xiao Yong.
Meng Lang can't wait to speed up the contraction of the rope. As Meng Lang expected, the shorter the monthly harvest of the rope, and the heavier the harvest.
Finally, at the moment when the rope was about to shrink to the end, Meng Lang finally found Xiao Yong in the waves not far away. However, he had no time to rejoice. Suddenly, like a basin of cold water, he went straight down from head to foot - because Xiao Yong was floating on the sea face down at this time.
People familiar with water rescue know that this is an extremely dangerous posture. In general, if you float like this for a long time, the probability of survival is almost zero.
Meng Lang, whose heart was cold, immediately swam to Xiao Yong. After swimming to Xiao Yong, he quickly turned his body over and turned his face upward. However, what makes Meng Lang extremely sad is that Xiao Yong at the moment has long had no signs of life. Even the skin of his face is about to be eroded by the salty sea water.
"Squad leader -" the grieving Meng Lang almost cried out: "it's me, it's me, I killed you. Otherwise, you still live well. It's me who led you to this road of no return, it's me..."
Yeah! Xiao Yong actually retired with honor long ago. Originally, all this had nothing to do with him, but he paid his most precious life for it.
After his retirement, he has always lived at the bottom of society, but he never complains or blames. No matter what kind of difficult environment he is in or what kind of difficulties and obstacles he faces, he is conscientious, diligent and tries to do everything he should do, just like countless veterans, But in the ordinary, it shows extraordinary and greatness.
However, I pulled him over.
In fact, when the enemy's naval guns began to block the sea in three dimensions, they could still directly order them to turn around and go back. However, he did not do so and sailed forward without hesitation until both fishing boats were overturned and sunk by fierce ship guns.
The other two comrades in arms, therefore, have no trace, and their life and death are unknown.
And all this is my own fault.
At that time, was it right or wrong to do so?
For a moment, he fell into deep remorse.
Yes, as a captain, wouldn't it have happened if he had ordered to return? And there will be no responsibility. The captain originally wanted to let himself these people to test. Of course, it's best if he can break through. If he can't break through, he won't have any responsibility to turn around and go back.
But at that time, why did you have to do this?
Now, the squad leader has died, and the other two comrades in arms are still alive and dead. What should I do when I am in the ocean and the rolling waves?
Is it in or out?
If it was a retreat, why did you go in at the beginning?
If you continue to move forward, even if you reach the island, what can you do for Cheng Chong?
A dilemma.
After some hard thinking, Meng Lang finally made a decision - that is, on the road of death.
If you step back now, why did you move forward? If we retreat at this time, wouldn't the sacrifice of monitor Xiao Yong and the disappearance of the other two comrades in arms become meaningless?
Even if you have decided to move forward, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you should move forward and never look back until you reach your final goal.
Yes, even if I can get on the island by chance, I can't bring any substantive help or supplies to my comrades in arms on the island.
However, their landing on the island can at least clearly tell them that the country has not forgotten them, and the army has not abandoned them. The large forces behind them are still sending reinforcements to them. As long as they insist, the final victory must belong to us.
Yes, it's enough to give the comrades in arms on the island confidence and encouragement to continue the fierce battle. Even if they take their own life, it's worth it.
Moreover, on the isolated island, there are their best comrades in arms and best brothers.
I must not fall, I must not
"Monitor, we continue to move forward and never retreat. I'll take you to the island." Meng Lang, who looked at the sun and quickly judged the direction, quickly shortened the rope and dragged Xiao Yong to swim in the direction of the island.
