2926 Live Up To The Country’s Hopes
Although this was their first time participating, the strength they displayed wasn’t so strong that it was scary. However, it was enough to let them know that the Chinese soldiers weren’t weak!
Xia Jinyuan was sitting with the commanders of several countries and communicating with them. He couldn’t help but smile when he saw Ye Jian and his comrades communicating with the other participants. Those who did not know how to speak English were trying to communicate by gesturing.
Yesterday, only the participants from the combat ethnic group came to greet the Chinese team while the other Western countries communicated happily with Saluk and the rest. Today, the Chinese were no longer isolated. They were already having a good time.
It didn’t matter even if they couldn’t communicate. They could use their body language to express themselves. As long as they wanted to communicate, the language barrier could be solved.
“Xia Jinyuan, this is our military unit. This is the first time our soldiers have stepped out of the country. Not only do you and your team carry the heavy responsibility of gaining respect, but you also have the responsibility of telling the Western countries that our Chinese soldiers are not weak but humble.
“If we win, we have to win beautifully. If we lose, we have to lose with dignity. When we step out of the country, we have to straighten our backs. We have to tell other countries that our Chinese soldiers are not weak. We just advocate peace.
“Don’t lose too badly. Losing too badly in our first competition will damage the country’s honor. Don’t win too hard. If you win too hard, we’ll become the first target to be hit.
“Since ancient times, the bird that sticks out has always been the first to get shot. We’re still not in a position where we can be undefeated, so we need to fly higher. Hence, you have to be humble and low-key.
“But at the same time, you must win respect. You must not do anything to damage the image of the Chinese soldiers. We must be unyielding, fearless in the face of danger, and as quiet as a mouse. This is what the military hopes of you. I hope that you won’t let down the country or the people!”
Before he left, the highest-ranking head of the country was accompanied by Commander-in-chief Xia and Major General Yang to the resting camp of the eight overseas participants. He stood under the bright red flag and watched the eight participants solemnly swear their oath. Then, he called Xia Jinyuan to talk to him alone and expressed the hope of the country and the military.
Now, Xia Jinyuan saw that the soldiers from various countries no longer looked down on them. Seeing their respect for the Chinese soldiers, Xia Jinyuan held back his tears and closed his eyes.
Although it had only been 24 hours since they arrived, the Chinese team members had been working hard and were even exhausted!
Their country was strong, and so were the people. They used 24 hours to gain respect. He and his comrades finally completed the heavy responsibility given to them by the country.
They used their ability to gain respect and overthrow the contempt in the eyes of the Western soldiers.
Raising his arm, Xia Jinyuan kissed the flag armband on his arm that represented the identity of the participating members. A tear flowed out of his closed eyes before quietly disappearing with his jungle camouflage combat uniform.
The Xueyu unit didn’t disappoint the country!
When Lieutenant Colonel Saluk brought the SFS border defense soldiers over, he saw China chatting happily with the special forces soldiers from all over the world. Even the American participants were chatting happily with the Chinese participants.
There were also a few countries from Great Britain and Northern Europe. Yesterday, they still looked down on China. But now, they were all chatting and laughing with the Chinese participants!
At the other side, the cunning Chinese commander was chatting happily with the commanders of several Western countries. One of the commanders even laughed and stretched out his fist, lightly hitting the shoulder of the Chinese commander like a brother.
Then, Saluk heard even louder laughter.
