"Actually, it's nothing." Bernard's somewhat low voice sounded in the ward. Alvin did not speak, but listened carefully to Bernard's narration. It was hard for Bernard to speak, Alvin. Naturally, I don't want to see it, because I interrupted indiscriminately, causing the other party to stop the topic.
"About fifteen years ago, at that time, I was not much older than you, and I was also serving in the army." Bernard continued, his face full of remembrance, of course, accompanied by some pain and regret. Look: "The team I'm in is a special force. Everyone in it is highly skilled. Whether it's shooting, fighting, or spaceship piloting, they are all first-class and powerful, and I am fortunate to be one of them. Also, in the second year after I entered, I became the squad leader, and now the chief of your mouth in this camp was a member of my squad at that time."
Alvin's heart was suddenly full of admiration for Bernard. Although Bernard did not give a detailed introduction to the situation of the team he was in, but with just a few words, Alvin could imagine how that team was. Great, the people inside are so tough, and Bernard was able to become the squad leader in the second year of joining that team, it was not easy, and the ability was naturally outstanding.
It is not a big deal to be a squad leader in an ordinary team, even if some people have mediocre ability, as long as they have a long time and have enough qualifications, they can still be a squad leader.
However, in the special forces, it is different. Although Alvin has never been in, he has mostly heard of it. The team in the camp where he is now is also the prototype of the special forces. Therefore, Alvin Naturally, I have a better understanding of special forces.
In special forces, those who can be officers, even the lowest-ranking officers, must have convincing abilities. Those who have no strength, even if they have been in the army for a long time and have very old qualifications. There is no way to become a military officer, even the lowest squad leader position, because in the special forces, everyone speaks only by strength, but no matter if you have been a soldier for several years, you are strong. Even if you have just entered the team, you can still be an officer, and those who are not strong, or have strength, but are not outstanding, even if they have been soldiers for more than ten years, they can only continue to be soldiers. There is no way to be an officer, not even a squad leader.
Therefore, Bernard was able to become the squad leader in the second year of entering the special forces, which shows that he is strong. Moreover, at that time, he should not be very old, so young, he already served as the squad leader in the special forces. This is enough to show that his future is boundless. It is very possible to become a general and lead a team by himself.
I didn't see it. At that time, it was just an ordinary soldier under Bernard. Has he now become the highest commander in this camp? Moreover, he also became a general. If Bernard had no surprises, his future should be brighter than him, rather than being a cook here.
Therefore, in Alvin's heart, he was even more convinced that something must have happened to Bernard, otherwise, it would not be what it is now.
However, although he was speculating about some things in his heart, Alvin did not ask. He knew that Bernard would continue to speak. At this time, what he had to do was to listen carefully to Bernard's narration, not Go to disturb him.
"Our troops usually perform some very difficult tasks, and everyone in our class has also received a lot of commendations for their outstanding tasks." Bernard continued.
Immediately, he laughed at himself and said in a bit painful way: "It is precisely because our class has accomplished many tasks outstandingly and has a great reputation in the army, so that task will be assigned to us later. Of course, there are also reasons why we actively strive for it."
"What task?" Alvin couldn't help asking, but after asking, he regretted it a little, fearing that Bernard would be unhappy because of his talk.
Fortunately, Bernard did not care about these, but continued: "At that time, the friction between the Yanfeng Nation and the Fan Nation on the border was increasing, which eventually led to the outbreak of war between the two sides, and the entire country's army was mobilized. Because we are special forces, we are not of much use on the frontal battlefield. In addition, the people above intentionally protect us and reduce our losses, so we are not sent to the front."
"It's just that at that time, I was young and vigorous and felt that we should not miss this war. Men should gain fame on the battlefield. Therefore, we were not allowed to go to the front line. I was very uncomfortable. I felt that the people above looked down on us. Yes, and because of this, I took the initiative to apply to go to the front line. At first, the leaders refused, but later there was a task, and if we carried out this task, it would be just right. In addition, I took the initiative many times. Application, so the people above gave us this task."
"And this task is to assassinate the frontline commander of the Flame Wind Nation army." Bernard said, his face was a little excited, as if he thought of the scene of carrying his men to perform this arduous task.
"Assassinate the opponent's frontline commander?" Alvin exclaimed slightly. This task is really too difficult. You must know that such a character, even in normal times, is surrounded by many guards, not to mention. It was in wartime, and there were definitely no fewer guards around him.
Therefore, it is completely conceivable how arduous this task is.
"Yes, it is to assassinate the opponent's frontline commander." Bernard said: "Actually, after the war, neither side stopped the assassination of the opponent's commander, but the targets were not too high-level. Because everyone knows how difficult it would be to assassinate the opponent's high-level commander in that situation, and it might not even be too different from suicide."
"Then why does this task appear?" Alvin asked.
"That's because the situation in our fan country was very bad. Although we were in a stalemate with the other side on the battlefield, the domestic pressure was great. Even some people with ulterior motives wanted to take the opportunity to revolt, so, The domestic high-levels all hope to resolve this war as soon as possible, but everyone definitely does not want to surrender and admit defeat. This is the task. At that time, there were several tasks similar to this task, all of which were assassinations. The high-level figures of the Wind Country are to be able to end the war as soon as possible." Bernard said.
"And what our class accepted was the task of assassinating the top commander of the opposing front." Bernard said: "And because of this task, I lost several of my brothers."
Having said that, Bernard had a pained look on his face.
As for this, Alvin is not too surprised. This task is obviously very difficult and dangerous. It will cause death, which is also a very real thing.
However, Alvin can also see that Bernard has not been able to fully relieve himself of this incident. He may blame this incident on himself, because Alvin learned from him. In his eyes, he saw a clear look of self-blame.
"Did you succeed in the end?" Alvin asked.
In fact, he guessed that Bernard and others should have succeeded, because he had also heard about this war. Although he was still young at that time, he grew up from other sources. , I have heard a lot about this war.
In this war, there was no final victor. Originally, Yanfeng Nation had a certain advantage. However, they suddenly withdrew from the army. Ordinary people didn’t know the reason at the time. It was not until later that news came out, saying He was the top commander of the frontline of Yanfeng Nation. He suddenly became seriously ill and died. In order to ensure that there would be no chaos in the army, Yanfeng Nation decided to retreat temporarily.
After all, the top commander of the frontline still has great power and high prestige in Yanfeng Nation. His sudden death must have a great impact on Yanfeng Nation’s army and even the officialdom. In addition, Yanfeng Nation immediately occupied some advantages at the time, but it was not a matter of overnight if it wanted to completely win that war. This was the reason for the subsequent retreat.
However, after hearing Bernard’s narration, Alvin guessed that at that time, the highest commander of the front line of the Flame Wind Nation should not have died of an illness. It is very likely that Bernard and others were assassinated to death. of.
Sure enough, after hearing Alvin’s question, Bernard showed a proud look on his face: "Of course! Our class is the best in the entire fan country, and of course the task was completed in the end."
Obviously, even now, Bernard is proud of that class, and when it comes to that class, he is full of pride.
However, the proud look on Bernard’s face came quickly and went faster, and immediately, a painful expression appeared on his face: "However, although we have completed the task, we have also paid for it. At a great price, there were ten people in our class, including me. However, in the end, only four returned safely. One of them was seriously injured and became disabled. After returning, he left the army. Up."
Alvin looked at Bernard sympathetically. It could be seen that the relationship between the people in their class must be very good, otherwise, Bernard would not be so sad, and seeing his comrades in arms, his colleagues died in him In front of him, it is indeed a very painful thing.
