Chapter 1080 - Heroes That Will Forever Be Remembered

Ye Jian, who used her last sniper bullet to send the heroes off, started her survival training again with a heavy heart.

All military police and all soldiers would never draw back in fear because their comrades had fallen. In the military unit, the most common sentence you could hear was, “If you’re a man, stand up right now!”

In front of sacrifices, they would wipe their tears and continue moving forward. In front of bloodstained military uniforms, they would wash them clean and wear them again. The firm and unyielding spirit of a soldier had been ingrained into their souls. In their dictionary, ‘failure’, ‘cower’, and ‘timid’ never existed. No matter what danger was in front of them, they would continue walking forward fearlessly while wearing their military uniforms.

The responsibilities and mission on their shoulders meant that even if it was a mountain of swords and a sea of flames in front of them, they would pass through it bravely!

They are full of courage and uprightness. They are not afraid of death. They can face death calmly. These are the people who sacrificed while protecting their country. They are undeniably the heroes of the entire nation. They will forever be remembered!

Ye Jian took a deep breath and climbed onto a cliff. She used her fastest speed to get back on her training path. She didn’t look back and she wasn’t frightened. She chose the military path fearlessly!

The monsoon season for Laos started in May and ended in October. From November to April, it was the dry season. For the first few days of her training, Ye Jian met heavy rain. After that, the weather got better. This allowed Ye Jian to be able to hasten the progress of her training.

In this endless rainforest that had witnessed many battles between the good and the evil, white skeletons could still be found under rotten trees. These weren’t just the bones of criminals. They could be the bones of the border guards too.

Uncle Chen said that many soldiers sacrificed while they were chasing the criminals. After they died, their bodies couldn’t even be found. Once a soldier has been missing for around three months, they would be reported as sacrificed.

The experience this time allowed Ye Jian to understand.

The rainforest didn’t just have one or two white skeletons. There were multiple skeletons here and they weren’t just the skeletons of criminals. They could also be skeletons of the border guards.

What was war? This was war! It was right beside you, half a step away.

Leader Liu, who was clearing up the battlefield, saw the skinny figure entering the forest. She was so small but she was braver than a male soldier. He raised his hand and said to his men in a hoarse voice, “Bring Little Zhi back. Remember to clean his face and sew his wounds. His body must be cleaned too. Help him to wear a suit. We… we… we will let him leave cleanly.”

“Everyone will cut a few strands of hair to place beside Little Zhi. Then, we will write a letter to tell Little Zhi that we will continue to be brothers in our next life and we will still fight alongside each other.”

“Yes!” A few sad voices sounded. Their voices were low and heavy. There was indescribable sorrow in them.

The rain stopped as evening drew near. In the village, thousands of kilograms of drugs that harmed the citizens of their country were destroyed. Because of them, the military police from China were sacrificed. Seven police officers from Laos were sacrificed too. When they raised these sacrificed soldiers to leave, gunshots sounded in the forest once again.

This was the gunshot to send these martyrs back home.

Birds flew past the dark sky. They left a series of lighthearted chirps. Ye Jian stood on the high ground and listened to the gunshots from the valley. She wiped the tears off the edge of her eyes and continued moving towards her target.

Five days, six days, seven days… She started her journey after her final exam ended. Ye Jian spent Lunar New Year’s eve in the forest.

After passing the last day of 1998 according to the Chinese calendar, Ye Jian welcomed the new Spring that belonged to her.
