Chapter 568 The reward Jiang Xia received was unprecedented!
Hehe, the power of Secretary Liu is terrifying!
The sudden silence on the radio left Jiang Xia, who was eager to continue watching the drama unfold, without any excitement to listen to. However, this did not deter him.
Turning the knob, I found the radio station playing storytelling and continued listening to "The Fierce Battle of the Nameless River." Who exactly was the protagonist? His experiences felt strangely familiar…
Jiang Xia looked up and handed one of the headsets to the "big guy" standing next to him.
"Can you recognize this person's name? I feel like I've read about him in a news report somewhere, but I can't quite remember it..."
The big guy didn't answer. "Of course I know, but I can't say that person's name!"
"If I were to mention it, and that person had already distorted the whole story before finally leaving that dark room, then bringing it up again would probably send them back in..."
Suddenly, "Big Guy" paused: "Fine, whatever. Someone was just released ten minutes ago and went back in..."
?
Seeing Jiang Xia's puzzled expression, the big guy lowered his head and thought for a moment: "One day, a new recruit came to the northern battlefield. His name was quite endearing. Although he was young, he was a veteran; he had been fighting as a guerrilla since he was fourteen!"
"In those two counterattacks, he single-handedly killed 62 enemy soldiers and destroyed 14 bunkers! In the end, when he was the only one left on the position..."
Hearing this familiar story, Jiang Xia couldn't help but interject, "Fire at me?"
"What are you thinking about!"
The big, rough hand cupped Jiang Xia's head and gently massaged it.
"He single-handedly repelled four enemy counterattacks and held out until dawn before being ordered to evacuate!"
"Furthermore, when he came off the field to rest, he had no gunshot wounds at all!"
Jiang Xia was a little confused. What kind of divine intervention was this? Especially the last sentence added by "Big Guy," which really shocked him so much that his head was spinning.
"What an exaggeration! If you said he was covered in blood, I might believe it, but not a single wound? What kind of nonsense is that! Besides, our logistics have always been a struggle, right? Where did he get so many bullets to repel...repel four attacks!"
The big guy sat down. "Who would have thought? Maybe the weapons he captured earlier helped him? Maybe he was agile enough to gather all the equipment of the departing soldiers together?"
"But think about it, out of millions of soldiers, only about 300 received honors of first-class merit or higher. What do you think they were so deserving of?"
"Oh, I forgot to mention, he single-handedly broke through three enemy lines of defense and took out their battalion command post! And even then, he only got two cuts on his wrist from that big-nosed guy's bayonet..."
"Could kung fu really exist? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense!" Jiang Xia's head swayed back and forth as the big guy rubbed it.
But it felt so damn good!
A surge of heat traveled down Jiang Xia's spine from the area where the large massager was located, and visibly, Jiang Xia's face began to flush.
"Yeah, the reason we were able to drive those guys back to that line wasn't just because they weren't afraid of death, but more importantly, because we have a lot of capable people... So, Xiao Jiang, don't look down on people. You know, there are many brave warriors among the common folk..."
At this point, "Big Guy" suddenly remembered how Jiang Xia treated that "Sugar Baby," and then smiled again.
"Forget it, you don't need to remember that. Your performance was... good enough!"
Wow, what a day! So many people are praising themselves, saying how nice and appealing it is!
"However, we must always keep safety in mind. After all, we've fought the battles before, and now we need you to fight the next ones!"
Jiang Xia nodded.
The two were silent for a while, with the big guy still pressing Jiang Xia's head.
"Hey, big brother, you know kung fu too? Are you a master?"
"Who am I? I'm just giving you a massage. Anyone in the team can do that." The big guy chuckled, then paused and added, "Yeah, I'm talking about the army. People like Old Wang who can walk on water don't count..."
Jiang Xia squinted and enjoyed the moment for a while, then asked, "Hey, where did this hero you mentioned go?"
"Big Guy" shook his head, about to say he didn't know, when a voice interrupted from behind:
"They went back to the countryside to farm! We couldn't keep them..."
Looking back, I saw it was the regimental commander.
"Oh, Commander? Is this hero one of your soldiers?"
The regimental commander's lips twitched: "You've got it backwards... I'm the soldier! If he doesn't leave..."
"Alright, Xiao Jiang, we've been asked to establish a communication connection. Someone wants to talk to you about the one-to-one relocation here!" The team leader quickly explained his purpose, afraid that he might remind him of his old leader.
Well, although he's not very old, he's really capable. Anyway, whenever he's mentioned, the leader feels like he has endless things to say.
"Hey, didn't I tell you we don't need to move so much? Anyway, we have the method to make the 'maid,' so we can just find a cave to blast away whatever data we need..."
"Someone wants to hear it from you yourself!"
Teacher Zhemin pulled the young Zeshan along and jumped out behind the group leader.
"Tsk tsk, you've got some good stuff to show for yourself these past few years! The very issue I was discussing, you've already overturned!"
Teacher Zhemin glared and bristled, while young Zeshan secretly gave Jiang Xia a thumbs up.
Jiang Xia smiled apologetically: "Well, there's been a problem. It's such a huge city, how are these soldiers supposed to move it? If they really have to move it, I reckon they don't even need to go for their troop rotation. They might as well just retire here and become professional archaeologists..."
Before Teacher Zhemin could say anything, the group leader started shouting in protest: "What?! Little Jiang, you can't do this! What kind of grown man doesn't do his job and come here to dig holes and play around?"
Because this regimental commander knew that if the man in front of him actually suggested it, his superiors might seriously consider his opinion. That wouldn't do! He might as well follow his old leader and go back to his hometown to farm. What kind of nonsense is it to dig up his ancestors' graves?
Jiang Xia gave the regimental commander a disdainful look: "Don't you want the broad road ahead? If it weren't for the high-pitched tone and the unspeakable grand ambition made earlier, I would definitely be digging here for the rest of my life."
Hey, don't look down on this industry. If you want to get a government job in this field in the future, you won't even know where to turn!
……
The field telephone line had been established, and the field generator was humming in the open space.
That's good. When Old Wang brings back his things, we won't have to go all the way to the commune to borrow electricity.
After communicating with the relevant comrades above, and ensuring that the "maid" could be replicated in Jiangxia, the mission of this team preparing for the rotation was also changed.
"Dig a reservoir?"
"Tsk tsk, although the military and the people are as close as fish and water, to turn the original mission into this, only Engineer Jiang could do it..."
The instructor, having just woken up, had passed Secretary Liu's assessment, so Jiang Xia casually mentioned the "maid" matter to him. Hearing the regimental commander's words, he nodded, somewhat understanding why the higher-ups were handling things this way.
"Consider this a reward for Xiao Jiang, but I think it's a bit too lenient..."
"Huh? Really?" The leader was intrigued. "Tell me more details?"
The instructor laid out a "dictionary," saying, "If you memorize it, I'll tell you!"
"Pah! Even dogs..."
