Chapter 1220 When That Day Comes
"That's the situation."
"What do you want to say?"
After listening to Minister He's description, Qin Feng also realized the seriousness of the problem.
Since his last trip to the Russian bear, he has noticed that the external landscape has begun to subtly change.
Beneath the seemingly harmonious surface, various undercurrents are surging.
Under the fog, all sorts of demons and monsters may suddenly appear.
But he didn't expect that the first to show their faces would be a group of naked monkeys.
Qin Feng: "I think this is a test."
Minister He nodded: "Go on."
Qin Feng: "Our national strength is growing stronger, and future competition will be even fiercer. The monkey is just a trailblazer, taking the opportunity to test our attitude. Someone wants to take this opportunity to see our reaction."
"The matter itself is not complicated, but at this critical juncture, it may be a bit troublesome to handle."
"Yes," Minister He said seriously, "The location of the Laowu Mountains is quite special, straddling our two regions, and it was occupied by the other side for a period of time in history."
"Even though that region was nominally ours after the founding of the People's Republic of China, we were too weak to take care of it."
"It wasn't until the 1980s that we were able to get it back completely; but the international community doesn't recognize it and has designated it as a disputed area, which is the troublesome part."
"The key point is that those guys were doing it under the guise of fighting drug trafficking gangs and helping and assisting in maintaining regional security. It was a 'just act,' and that's the core of the problem."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Feng, seemingly waiting for Qin Feng to offer some opinions.
But unexpectedly, Qin Feng didn't express any opinion, but instead asked what the higher-ups meant.
"Our meaning is very simple: the enemy wants to fight, we must take back the mountain, and we must avenge those who shed blood and sacrificed their lives."
"Finally, and most importantly..."
Minister He didn't say it, but Qin Feng still understood.
The counterattack must be swift and decisive, without any hesitation or delay, and certainly without giving the opponent an opportunity to smear us.
Many people, including Qin Feng at the beginning, couldn't quite understand why the country attached so much importance to international public opinion, and why it was always just protests.
The reason is actually quite simple: our strength is far from being enough to overturn the table.
Moreover, everyone at the dinner table knew each other and hung out together as a group.
Since we have no help, we have to rely on ourselves for everything and have to be careful.
Qin Feng asked knowingly, "What excuse did they use?"
"Eliminate the drug traffickers' armed forces and protect regional stability."
"Then let's wipe them out too."
"But the problem is, where can we still find armed drug traffickers to wipe out?"
Minister He clapped his hands, mimicking the gesture of a white crane spreading its wings, while simultaneously displaying an expression of deep concern for the country and its people.
Actually, Qin Feng really wanted to say: "Commander, you still need to practice your acting skills."
But given his rank, he certainly couldn't say such things.
Even if people treat you like a junior, are polite to you, and show concern for your well-being, you are still a subordinate.
But you must never take advantage of someone's kindness and do anything out of line or beyond the bounds; you must always be mindful of your place.
Here are some tips for navigating workplace relationships!
Qin Feng didn't respond. He was hesitating, thinking, and even a little resistant.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward. Minister He kept staring at him, waiting for him to deliver his lines according to the script.
"Xiao Qin, show some attitude!"
"As the successor to the farm, you should make a statement!"
"Where are these ruthless drug traffickers hiding, and how should we take them down?"
Qin Feng was exasperated; when soft tactics failed, he resorted to force.
In the end, he had no choice but to stand up and take on the job.
“If necessary, I can be this heartless, militant!”
"Ah, that's right!"
Minister He's face was beaming with joy.
He was just waiting for Qin Feng to say those words.
Doing this kind of work is really dishonorable and undignified.
However, forcing Qin Feng to do it would be somewhat unreasonable and an attempt to use rank to pressure him.
"Look, you said it yourself. I didn't force you, and I didn't pressure you."
"Yes, I did it voluntarily!"
Qin Feng uttered those last three words almost through gritted teeth.
He really didn't want to do this kind of work; it was simply undignified.
Although he had played such villainous roles many times during his military career.
Kidnappers, robbers, bandits, terrorists; but those are all drills, all fake.
But this time is different. This time it has to be serious. And then the higher-ups will have to give flowers, applause, and credit to those who "annihilated" them.
"Alright, stop looking so gloomy. You don't have to be in the light to be a hero."
"The farm is a non-existent shadow force; it cannot, and should not, appear in the sunlight."
"But in the future, your efforts and sacrifices will be rewarded; you will receive all the honors, flowers, and benefits you deserve."
Qin Feng took a deep breath, quickly adjusted his mindset, and asked, "Commander, I want to know, why does this job have to be done by me? Actually, I think Old Gray has a rugged temperament, and he's more suitable than me."
“Li Fei’s image and temperament don’t seem like those of a good person… I could easily switch from being in front of the camera to working behind the scenes.”
Minister He laughed and said, "Don't be modest. None of them have as much experience as you. You have a better grasp of the temperament when playing villains and antagonists, and you have many successful examples."
“I’ve watched all the videos of your past exercises, and this is the result of our joint discussion.”
"So this time you are both the planner and the actor, while I am the director."
"However, the specific details still need to be finalized. We must act swiftly and decisively, leaving the enemy no chance to react!"
Qin Feng nodded: "Understood, I will probably need two days."
Minister He: "No problem. I'll be here these next two days. Once the plan is finalized, come find me directly. Viper isn't here, so you can allocate the farm personnel as you see fit. Use whichever of these special forces units on the farm you need."
"You come from a background in individual combat, have experience in command, training planning, and exercise layout, and now you are the head of the operations and training department, responsible for formulating competition plans and procedures."
"This time, it should be a proper match for your major, so you can give it your all."
“But!” Minister He emphasized those two words.
"No matter what, we must complete the mission. We have to make them feel the pain and be afraid of us!"
"Only by thoroughly defeating this scapegoat will our opponents be wary and realize our strength and capabilities!"
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"
Qin Feng saluted and then chatted with him about other things.
During the conversation, the topic of Viper being on a mission outside was mentioned.
Minister He also revealed a playful expression: "You know what, your master really did gain something from this trip."
"What's the catch?"
"Do you remember the Illuminati that you investigated in Russia before?"
"Ah."
"This group of people is quite powerful!"
Qin Feng did not pursue the question of who these people were.
Because you can deduce something from where the venomous snake goes.
They are either arms dealers, warmongers, radicals, or bloodthirsty conglomerates and oligarchs.
Minister He didn't elaborate, only coldly saying, "These guys have big plans, and the things they do are more outrageous than the last. They're not just stirring up trouble; they want to reshape the order!"
Qin Feng's face was also terribly cold: "So, the monkey was pushed out to drag our family down with him."
"Yes."
"But this is only the opponent's three of diamonds; the pair, straight, three of a kind, and the two jokers haven't come out yet."
"Otherwise, what do you think is the purpose of emphasizing realistic combat training? Although no one wants it, you never know, nobody can say for sure..."
"We just want to focus on development and live a peaceful life, but others won't agree to it. We don't want to bully others, nor do we want to be bullied. This is what it means for each generation of soldiers to have its own mission!"
Minister He leaned back on the sofa and let out a long sigh, humming a tune: "It's a bright morning, the cooing of pigeons accompanies the reveille, but the world is not at peace. Even in times of peace, there are turbulent storms. Are you ready, brothers in arms..."
This was also the first time Qin Feng approached the content of the song with a cautious and vigilant attitude.
And its name is: When That Day Comes!
