Chapter 1056: Every Paragraph Is A Piece Of History
Individual combat is much easier than being a commanding officer!
While fighting alone, she could at least make swift decisions according to judgments that would be beneficial to her allies, but the commanding officer cannot do that. The commanding officer needed to grasp the whole situation, know how to make deployments, understand synergies, and when the plan received any damages. They will quickly and immediately revisit their plan to ensure their victory in the battle.
Knowing all this, Ye Jian1 admired Xia Jinyuan2’s abilities even more.
At the same time, it also made Ye Jian curious about Principal Chen’s past. He was so impressive… Why would he choose to retire?
In the past, she naively thought that Uncle Chen was merely a world-class sniper, but after her training during the winter break, she finally realized the retired soldier before her, who had yet to lose his edge, was not as simple as he appeared.
A world-class sniper that knew about military tactics and strategy, how could he be a simple person.
“Uncle Chen, can I ask you a question?” Ye Jian, who had just finished packing up the foldable table, asked with hesitation, “I wanted to know, why did Uncle… choose to retire?”
Principal Chen, who just finished putting away the waterproof tarp, turned around. He playfully teased: “You finally asked that after keeping it in for so long, did you find it hard to keep it in?”
“Just a little, I was scared it wasn’t an appropriate question, so I swallowed it down.” Ye Jian laughed with pursed lips. So Uncle Chen had already noticed her curiosity a long time ago and was waiting for her to ask it. Since it came to this, does it mean he can tell her?
Indeed he could tell her; it’s also good for her to know some things.
After Principal Chen was done smiling, his expression revealed a tinge of seriousness when he reminisced about his past. “After the Proclamation, our country had been establishing its own Special Forces. At that time, we weren’t considered as Special Ops Soldiers; we were the soldier kings of the military, at most. This is because the earliest Special Forces unit that our country had established was in the year ‘88. At that time, I had already been a retiree for quite a while.”
“During those days, the soldier kings needed to have the knowledge our comrades did not have. With the absolute toughest bodies and the absolute smartest minds, we can do many things alone, such as treading through swamps, crossing glaciers, climbing cliffs, eliminating wolf packs, and destroying snake burrows. In our day, we didn’t have so much high tech equipment. What we relied on were our own hard skills.”
“You need to know military commands, and you must understand strategy and tactics. When you get pulled up, you can lead your own army into battle, and when you get released into the fray, you can still eliminate countless enemies by yourself. In the ’70s, after we were deployed on an important mission, amongst a total of ten soldier kings, only four of us returned alive.”
“Although I returned alive, my identity was revealed and was given the identity of the so-called ‘World-class Sniper.’ This identity wasn’t imparted onto me by our country; it started spreading from overseas. And precisely because I was suddenly given that identity, the military determined to ensure my safety. After planning for about three months, my identity was erased, and I had died internationally, but in reality, I was a still-living soldier king.”
“I made too many enemies after my identity was exposed; retirement became my best option.”
Every paragraph he said was a piece of history. It made Ye Jian realize how bad things were for her country at that time and how careful they were. She even understood why they were still acting so low-key in the present, carefully concealing the military strength of the ascending country.
All of this was because the opportune moment has yet to arrive, all of this was because there was still a particular gap compared to the developed countries, all of this was because we still needed to put in our effort, out of sight, and await the moment our country lifts its head!
And the moment we have been waiting for will not be too far away! From the launch of the satellite, the success of the launch vehicle, the appearance of our aircraft carrier, the soaring of our autonomous jets, and the missile guidance technology… All of our military might be slowly revealed to the world after entering the 21st century, and at that time, it will be the real ascent of a great country!
