One-star Brigadier General Buck neatly folded his uniform and placed it on his desk. He looked at it with nostalgia for a long time, put on his backpack, and strode outside.
Outside the office, several soldiers who had returned alive from the volcanic eruption island were standing tall. When they saw Buck taking off his military uniform and walking out, they raised their hands and saluted with a military salute.
Buck nodded, with a touch of sadness on his rough and resolute face. His younger brother, his biological younger brother, Little Buck, died on an island swallowed by a volcano.
"Repeat the Chinese man's name." Buck glanced at the soldier's cheek one by one and asked in a deep voice.
"General, his name is Yan Fenghuo!" a soldier replied loudly.
Buck nodded and said expressionlessly: "Very good, my soldiers, you have done a great job. Disband now, return to your dormitory, and take a good hot bath, okay?"
"yes!"
The soldiers answered loudly, but did not move.
"General," a soldier shouted: "We are willing to work with you to avenge Colonel Red Scar!"
Hearing this, Buck smiled, shook his head and patted the soldiers on the shoulders one by one: "My brother Little Buck asked you to come back without wanting you to die. Your current ability is far from enough to deal with that man named Yan."
The warlike Chinese. Even so, I would like to say thank you to you on behalf of Little Buck. Remember the creed of our U.S. Navy: always loyal!"
"Always loyal!" The soldiers clenched their fists and hit themselves on the left chest hard.
Buck strode outside. On the deck, four soldiers who had also taken off their rank and carried rucksacks were waiting for him.
The four men stared at Buck with burning eyes. They simultaneously took out a saber and pointed it toward the sky. The saber was like the teeth of a tiger shark, sharp and sharp, shining with an icy cold light.
Buck walked over and took out the same saber. The only difference was that the saber that should have been sharp was dark brown and exuded a faint smell of blood.
The helicopter took off and gradually turned into a black spot, disappearing far away.
The sea is calm, with no wind or waves, a rare tranquility. There is no doubt that this kind of weather is the best for fishing at sea, and it only happens a few times a year.
In the waters where the South China Sea intersects with the Philippines, a Philippine fishing boat sailed on calm seas and headed straight towards China's territorial waters.
The fishery resources in Philippine waters are far less abundant than those in the South China Sea. It is not just one fishing boat going to Chinese waters to fish, but many fishing boats crossing the territorial waters to engage in illegal fishing.
Perhaps this is an unforgivable behavior in the hearts of the Chinese people, because the other party's behavior damaged the territorial dignity of the motherland. But in the eyes of these Filipino fishermen, it is a normal thing. In their hearts, this is the territory of the Philippines.
Not from China.
On the fishing boat, after the old captain explained to the first mate, he walked towards a cabin. Lying in the cabin was an unrecognizable man who was salvaged from the sea a week ago.
At that time, I thought it was a corpse, and even after it was salvaged, I still thought it was a corpse. Because the man's body showed burnt ulcers, as if it had been boiled in boiling water. Fortunately, the man who was salvaged still had a heartbeat and was still alive.
alive.
In the damp and sea-smelling cabin, Yan Fenghuo, who was lucky enough to survive, was quietly lying on the bed for an infusion. His whole body was wrapped tightly, like a mummy. There was an unbearable itching from every place.
I can't wait to grab it with my hands.
However, Yan Fenghuo knew that he must not scratch him. His muscles and skin were growing. If he scratched him now, he would be able to buckle his belt and flesh.
He clearly remembered that the flying boulder took him to a hell, just like the nine-level oil pan hell where he did bad things in the eighteenth level of hell and was put into the oil pan by the imp to fry.
It would be okay if he fried the bones in a frying pan and crisped them up, maybe the pain would be less. But he was in boiling sea water, boiling it like soup...
The pain was unimaginable, and Yan Fenghuo didn't even know how he survived. Anyway, he fell into a coma when the pain became unbearable. When he woke up, he found himself on this fishing boat, taking antibiotics and receiving a simple medical treatment.
Very important care.
My eyes can't see anything, all I can feel is darkness, endless darkness.
The cabin door was pushed open from the outside, and an old voice came: "My child, how are you?"
The old captain knew that Yan Fenghuo had woken up, so he came to see the lucky guy who was almost cooked.
In the vast sea, all fishing boats adhere to one principle, which is to save everyone you can. This is the same in any country, because the sea is completely different from the land, even if you see corpses
Also try to salvage as much as possible. Because the corpses or people in distress that you encounter are arranged by Poseidon. If you ignore them, you will one day get ruthless revenge from Poseidon.
This is a kind of worship and belief, and it is the teachings passed down by ancestors from generation to generation. If they do not save them at sea today, maybe when their fishing boat crashes, no one will come to rescue them.
Yan Fenghuo, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, heard the voice and his face changed. He heard clearly that it was Tagalog, the official language of the Philippines. The voice told him that he was rescued by Filipinos.
However, we still don’t know whether it was a Philippine military vessel or a fishing boat that rescued him.
If it were the Philippine military, I'm afraid things would not be simple.
"Where am I? Who are you?" Yan Fenghuo asked in English.
He can understand Filipino, but cannot speak it. He has learned many foreign languages in the army, and this language widely used in Macau and Singapore is no stranger to him.
"My child, I am Cruze, and you are on my fishing boat." The old captain carefully looked at Yan Fenghuo's tightly wrapped cheeks, and said with a smile: "My child, you are really lucky to be able to survive. It's simply amazing.
Miracle."
The old captain of Cruze used stilted English. Although it was stilted, Yan Fenghuo could still understand it.
"Thank you." Yan Fenghuo opened his mouth to say thank you, feeling much more at ease.
It's fine on a fishing boat, but it might not be so easy on a Philippine warship.
"Haha, kid, which country are you from? American? Korean? Japanese? Taiwanese?" Cruz asked with a smile, poured a glass of water from the kettle next to him and sat next to Yan Fenghuo.
Yan Fenghuo shook his head slightly and said, "Taiwanese."
"It's very good to be too late!" Cruz carefully gave Yan Fenghuo a sip of water and smiled: "My child went to Taiwan and developed well there. He even married a local Taiwanese girl as his wife, haha."
After taking a sip of water, Yan Fenghuo felt extremely comfortable, and his thinking became much clearer.
He did not say that he is Chinese, although he should hold his head high and say that he is Chinese. But in this case it is best not to say that, even if he says that he is Taiwanese, he is better than Chinese. And it doesn't matter.
No, Taiwan is also one of the indivisible territories of the motherland, despite the various problems currently occurring on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
If he doesn't want to die, if he doesn't want to be thrown into the sea again, this is the only way. In other words, if he says that he is Chinese, he may be thrown into the sea or handed over to the Philippine military the next moment.
The relationship between China and the Philippines is not very harmonious, and has become extremely intense in recent years. The root cause lies in the competition for sea areas. China believes that the sea area belongs to China, while the Philippines believes that the sea area belongs to them.
Coupled with the fact that the United States is supporting the Philippines behind the scenes, this conflict has erupted even more intensely.
Political factors affect people's judgment and drive people's tendencies. The result of this opposition is inevitable and cannot be eliminated.
Yan Fenghuo opened his mouth and asked for water again.
Cruz fed a glass of water to Yan Fenghuo, with a smile on his wrinkled face: "Child, take good care of your injuries. You can go home when your injuries are healed, haha."
Yan Fenghuo breathed a long sigh of relief and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Black Earth Island." Cruz said: "You can no longer catch big fish in the offshore sea. Only Black Earth Island can harvest something. Alas..."
Black Earth Island, Black Earth Island is the focus of the conflict between China and India!
Black Earth Island has always been China's inherent territory and is located in the Zhongsha Islands. The waters of Black Earth Island have always been a traditional fishing place for Chinese fishermen, and the Chinese government has sent scientific expedition teams to Black Earth Island for scientific inspections many times.
The fishery resources of Heitu Island are very rich. Like the Nansha Islands, the waters of Heitu Island are not only an important sea channel and have an important strategic position, but also are very rich in aquatic resources. It is rich in tuna, red fish, octopus and plum blossom ginseng with high economic value.
And various shellfish products, especially corals, which have a wide variety and high economic value.
Since the 1970s, several Southeast Asian countries, headed by the Philippines and Vietnam, have successively claimed partial or complete sovereignty over certain islands in my country’s Nansha Islands. Some have sent warships and aircraft to patrol the islands; some have even built fortifications and stationed troops on the islands. Adopting the posture of "first possession is king" has made the dispute over sovereignty of the Nansha situation continue to heat up.
Secondly, in order to realize its strategic interests in Asia and contain China's development and growth, the United States has tried its best to create the "China threat theory" and has increasingly taken the position of certain countries in the territorial disputes over the Nansha Islands. The United States will always dare to
The Philippines, which is competing with China, has become the main force competing with China.
"Heitu Island is China's territory." Yan Fenghuo said.
"No, Black Earth Island is our Philippine territory!" Captain Cruz said proudly: "There are our warships there!"
Yan Fenghuo squeezed his tightly wrapped fist tightly, and felt extremely angry in his heart: No, that is our Chinese territory, and it has always been China's territory!
But his anger was powerless, because the Philippine warships had already sailed to Black Earth Island...
If Yan Fenghuo was intact at this time, he would use words to argue with the opponent, but now he can't even move, his life and death are in the opponent's hands.
Feeling the boundless darkness, Yan Fenghuo suddenly thought of what Russian President Putin said: When it comes to territorial issues, there is only war!
