Chapter 1171 Looking for my elder brother?
In the sweltering rainforest of southwestern border region, mosquitoes bite the skin. Border guards are on patrol.
"Squad leader, how much further?" a young soldier, participating in a patrol for the first time, asked his squad leader while swatting away mosquitoes.
"What? Can't take it anymore? It's still early! We've only been walking for less than half an hour, and our normal patrol time is two hours. How much longer do you think it will take?" the squad leader said with a smile.
"Huh? It's still so long? I'm practically covered in mosquito bites! How can this raincoat get so soaked with mosquitoes?" the new recruit complained.
"Haha, squad leader, Xiao Wang's clothes are practically a mosquito nest!" A veteran walking behind the new recruit looked up at the young soldier's complaint and then laughed.
"Hey kid, you saw that and didn't even help him chase away the mosquitoes! Instead, you were just standing there watching and laughing!" The squad leader stopped smiling and said to the veteran.
"Alright, I'll get him down right away!" The veteran didn't pay attention to the squad leader's tone and reached out to help the recruit swat away the swarm of mosquitoes that had gathered on his back. Of course, a considerable number of mosquitoes were also killed on the recruit's back.
Just as the squad leader was about to turn around, he suddenly noticed something unusual in the nearby jungle. He immediately tensed up, took his gun off his back, and with a "click!" the sound of a bullet being chambered shocked the other soldiers. Whether they were new recruits or veterans, it was the first time they had ever seen their squad leader handle a gun!
"Who's there! Come out now! I'll shoot if you don't!" The squad leader pointed his gun at the spot he felt was unusual, his expression extremely serious.
"Squad leader, are you mistaken? There's nothing unusual here." The other soldiers followed the squad leader's gaze but found nothing amiss, so they couldn't help but ask.
“The grass there is wrong! That kind of grass would appear five kilometers away, it would never appear here! I’ve walked this patrol route for ten years! I know every blade of grass and every tree better than anyone else! Hey you over there, if you don’t come out, I’m going to shoot!” The squad leader didn’t panic at all, but firmly pointed his gun at that spot.
"Don't shoot! We're on the same side!" a voice rang out. Where the squad leader pointed, a soldier in camouflage stood up, his face full of grievance!
"Who are you?" The squad leader did not lower his guard just because he was wearing one of their own uniforms. After all, it wasn't unheard of for the enemy to do something like this before, wearing our uniforms and impersonating our people.
“Squad leader, don’t be so serious. I’m from the Southwest Special Operations Brigade! I’m one of our own, and there are many others around here! Don’t be nervous, we’ll all come out!” the man said.
"What? There's more?" The border guards looked around nervously. Had they been surrounded without even realizing it?
Soon, more than a dozen people stood up in the jungle, but they were a little far apart and formed an encirclement around the entire patrol squad of soldiers.
The old squad leader also looked at the soldiers around him with a livid face. He had even said that he knew every blade of grass and tree in the area like the back of his hand, but he never expected to be proven wrong so quickly!
"Sergeant, I am Ning Wei, the company commander of the Southwest Field Brigade. I am leading my soldiers in infiltration training. I'm really sorry to disturb your work!" A middle-aged officer walked over, saluted the sergeant, and said.
The old sergeant, seeing Ning Wei's standard military salute and the two bars and one star on his shoulder, reflexively returned the salute.
"I'm sorry, Major, we haven't received any orders from our superiors, so please show me your identification!" After saluting, the squad leader didn't immediately believe Ning Wei's words, but continued to speak.
Ning Wei had no choice but to take out his officer's ID card from his shirt pocket and hand it to the old squad leader.
"I'm very sorry, Major!" After checking Ning Wei's identification, the squad leader handed the identification back to Ning Wei with both hands, saying this very honestly.
"It's alright, it's all for our duty! I didn't mean to bother you, but unfortunately my men were slacking off. The camouflage on him was collected on the way here. Your judgment was very accurate! Squad leader, you are remarkable!" Ning Wei looked at the border guards and admired them from the bottom of his heart.
"Major, we must continue our patrol! I wish you all the best in your training!" The squad leader's eyes reddened, but he continued his patrol duties, only saluting Ning Wei to express his gratitude.
Only the new recruit Xiao Wang looked at Ning Wei and the others with envy in his eyes!
"Company commander, these soldiers are all excellent!" A captain walked over and said to Ning Wei.
“Yes! They’re all good soldiers! But Zheng Zhi’s training was doubled today! He was still discovered during the stealth training. What exactly have you been learning in your training?” Ning Wei’s face was calm, but the anger in his tone was very obvious.
The first soldier to be discovered scratched his head helplessly, knowing he was about to make a fool of himself again.
Soon, Ning Wei led his soldiers back to their temporary camp, a training ground about 30 kilometers from the northern border of Wanbei. Two main battalions of the special operations brigade were stationed here for a two-month training program.
Back at the camp, Ning Wei walked toward his battalion commander's office with a grim expression. He had to tell the battalion commander about the border guards discovering them during training today; otherwise, it would only be more embarrassing if the border guards reported it to him!
On his way to the captain's office, Ning Wei noticed a local police car driving into their training base. And, surprisingly, it was heading in the same direction as him.
Ning Wei's jeep and the police car arrived at the government building at the same time, and the two men got out of the police car.
Ning Wei looked at the two people, his eyes full of doubt.
"Hey, Seventeenth Brother, is bringing me here really useful? I feel like it would be better to go find Big Sister!" the young man said nervously to the man in the police uniform.
“For ordinary matters, you can definitely ask your eldest sister, but for this matter, you can only ask your eldest brother! Asking others won’t help. Your eldest brother is the eldest son of the eldest branch of the family. Although he is not favored by our father on the surface, when something really happens, your eldest sister has to listen to him! Besides, if you ask your eldest sister for this matter, aren’t you afraid that she will go straight to John Bull to solve your troubles?” Wei Shang, wearing a police uniform, said helplessly while stretching his arms and legs.
"I had no choice! Who would have thought something like this would happen! It's all my fault for being careless!" Wei Xi, dressed in casual clothes, said with a bitter expression.
"Who are you? Who are you looking for?" Just as the two were relieving the fatigue from the long drive, a very curious voice came from behind them. It was Ning Wei, who had just gotten out of the car.
Wei Shang and Wei Xi turned to look at Ning Wei, who was speaking to them. "Major, we're here to see your brigade commander, Zhao Weidong! My name is Zhao Weishang, deputy director of the Dongguang Police Department, and this is my younger brother, Zhao Weixi!" Wei Shang said with a smile.
