Chapter 222: The First Drop of Blood
Chapter 222: The First Drop of Blood
"Just now, law enforcement officers were near us and successfully stopped an illegal transaction, but they suffered a lot of casualties. Seven of the militants fled into the jungle. Our mission was to catch these guys. The incident happened suddenly. But soldiers are always ready to fight."
Fang Ying's voice was loud, solemn and solemn, spreading far away and resounding in everyone's ears.
Although they had already guessed it, there was still a slight commotion in the crowd.
It was too sudden, and no one was mentally prepared.
The blood of our ancestors has resulted in the absence of large-scale wars for decades. It seems that such actual combat is actually very rare. Tension is inevitable, and no one can skip the mental process.
But it's just that they are wearing military uniforms, they are nervous, and their mentality will adjust.
This will take some time.
"boarding!"
Fang Ying also knew this, so he immediately asked people to get on the troop carrier without saying anything.
One company has one vehicle. After all, teamwork is very important when performing tasks. The soldiers of your own company have already formed a tacit understanding during the training process.
The second company also had a separate car, which was empty with only eight recruits in it.
In such an empty space, Chen Lu could clearly see the comrades next to him, whose legs were shaking uncontrollably.
This was caused by tension. Many people looked at each other and could see the tense expressions on each other's faces.
Compared with the veterans of other companies, these are all recruits within a year, so it is normal for their mental quality to be not up to par.
Chen Lu remembered that when he was a recruit, he simulated an enemy attack for the first time, and some people peed their pants on the spot.
The car bumped occasionally, but no one spoke.
Miao Lian, who had been observing everyone's expressions, first looked at the superior soldier next to him and smiled slightly: "Are you afraid?"
The superior soldier was stunned for a moment, swallowed his saliva, and subconsciously shook his head: "I'm not afraid."
"Haha!" Miao Lian nodded, "Just don't be afraid!"
After saying that, Miao Lian stood up, dragged out a sealed black box, used a dagger to remove the seal, and then opened it gently.
Chen Lu scanned the box, his eyes widened. They were all clips, and they were still pressed. The yellow bullets dazzled him a little.
There are bullets, this is live ammunition... Chen Lu lowered his voice and muttered.
"Company Commander, is this really not a drill?"
The one who asked the question was the senior soldier. He couldn't help it. As the only son in the family, he was waiting to retire and inherit the family property. He didn't expect to encounter a war so soon.
In fact, the company commander didn't even need to answer, he already knew the answer. This was not the familiar blank ammunition at all.
Miao Lian didn't answer him. Shen Mo took out three magazines from the box and handed them to him.
"Three magazines for each person, grab them."
Looking at the magazine handed over, the superior soldier who was waiting to inherit the family property was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and took it and said: "Forget it, just die, it's just a bit sudden."
Miao Lian didn't comfort him, just smiled, took out three more magazines and handed them to other soldiers.
"Company Commander, I'm not afraid of death."
"Before I die, I must drag someone to the bottom."
"Before I became a soldier, I thought about fighting, and finally I got what I wanted. I got what I wanted..."
Every soldier who finished the magazine said something, as if to cheer himself up, and also as if he was going to the battlefield to promote the scene. The words he said seemed to have been prepared for a long time.
If you don't say it out loud, it seems like life is lacking regrets.
When it was Chen Lu's turn, he silently took the magazine.
Miao Lian looked at this silent man and finally said: "Actually, during the competition, your performance was the best, but no one praised you. Do you know why?"
"I don't know." Chen Lu felt the heavy magazine, with complex emotions brewing in his heart. How could he think about what happened in the past?
"Chen Lu, if I tell you that when you know that you will not really die in the competition, no matter how brave you are, it will not matter. Are you convinced? Let me ask you one thing, if you really face death, do you still dare to do that? Charge like this?"
"I'm telling you, the competition really doesn't mean anything, so no one praises you. People who are truly capable are all forced out on the battlefield."
"Are you afraid of death? Do you still dare to charge?"
Miao Lian didn't ask anyone else, but asked Chen Lu.
He wanted to hear Chen Lu's true thoughts. Compared with other recruits, this most outstanding recruit was not inferior to the veterans of the company in terms of military quality.
But there was a big gap between actual combat and exercises. Chen Lu's silence just now made him unsure of what this guy was thinking.
In fact, Chen Lu didn't think too much, he just felt like there was nothing to say.
Staring at the company commander's blazing eyes like light bulbs, he smiled and said: "Company Commander, I'm not afraid of death. To be honest, I'm a little excited."
What he said was true.
Maybe at first, the battalion commander's words made him a little nervous, but now it disappeared and was replaced by excitement, even a little excited.
Scared...are you still excited? ? ?
Regarding Chen Lu's answer, Miao Lian looked stunned and didn't know how to speak.
This is an unreasonable answer.
You either say you are not afraid or you are mentally prepared, but how excited are you?
Just when the company commander didn't know whether to praise or scold, the electronic sound of the system sounded in Chen Lu's mind.
Random mission prompt: Please complete the First Blood mission, kill or capture a militant alive, and write a new chapter for yourself in the army. The system will give corresponding rewards as follows:
Kill a militant and be rewarded with 100 experience points!
Capturing a militant alive will reward you with 200 experience points.
"MD, there are more rewards for catching alive than killing? Is this the villain system?"
To be honest, Chen Lu was more than excited when he heard this mission prompt.
His power comes from the blessing of skills, the more experience points, the better.
"Company Commander, I know what you are going to say. On the one hand, you are worried about me messing around, but on the other hand, you are worried that I am scared. They are completely different from the competition, right?"
"Then let me tell you, my grandpa is actually a soldier. He told me since I was a child that marching and fighting are originally the mission of soldiers. There is nothing to be afraid of. I am excited because I want to have the opportunity and make some contributions. This is a gift. The opportunity to visit, hehe... This is what I promised my grandpa."
"You kid...do you really have such thoughts?"
Miao Lian smiled when he heard Chen Lu introduce himself. It seemed that this boy was really not nervous.
It is worth mentioning that he started to charge this guy on the battlefield like he was in a competition. It seemed that he had to be tempered.
