Xu Yun remembered very clearly that Wan Kuangxiao had mentioned to them that Hua Xia's first anti-drug team was in 1982. Today, this team had arrested three to four hundred thousand drug dealers and made countless achievements.
This anti-drug team was active in this area. This was the reason why Xu Yun went to this place. This was the most dangerous place, so this team was here.
This was because Wan Kuangxiao had a very good relationship with the captain of this team. The two of them were very close friends. It was not easy to find friends who admired each other in this society.
The two of them were doing dangerous and difficult things for their country, so they admired each other. Wan Kuangxiao had arranged for the Dragon Brigade to come here more than once to experience the dangers and help the anti-drug police do the most dangerous things.
They worked hard in the border cities, in the villages, and on the fog-shrouded border, which was where Xu Yun and the rest were now.
When Xu Yun first walked into their lives, he found that every month, there would be people injured because of dangerous work. Some of them were seriously injured. Some were shot in the abdomen, and their limbs were cut open by exploding grenades. Death often appeared around them.
Although the anti-drug police's professional training and safety protection were constantly being strengthened, and Wan Kuangxiao would also arrange for elite soldiers to come here to train them, the death and injury rate of the anti-drug police was still several times higher than that of other police forces.
The reason was very simple. Danger, endless danger.
The first anti-drug police officer Xu Yun met here was called Huazi. He had a shocking scar on his face. Xu Yun asked him how he got it. He joked that he tattooed a centipede on his face to make himself look more ferocious.
If he looked more ferocious, it would be more convenient for him to go undercover when the organization needed him. It would be easier to win the drug dealers' trust.
In fact, this scar was left behind when he was blown up by a grenade. A drug dealer was surrounded by him and a few of his colleagues. In desperation, the drug dealer pulled the grenade.
He and several of his colleagues were knocked over by the shockwave from the explosion.
With this explosion, two of Huazi's brothers died. He was lucky enough to survive, but his body was pierced by dozens of shrapnel in many places. The scars that had not healed for many years were because there were still small shrapnel in his flesh that could not be removed.
But Huazi was never troubled by the pain of these shrapnel. He was happy every day. He said that these scars were his honor.
Indeed, these were all his honors.
Huazi was still a little hard of hearing. Every time Xu Yun talked to him, it would take a lot of effort. Sometimes, Huazi had to be very loud in order to hear because the explosion of the grenades had damaged his auditory nerves.
Many of Huazi's family and friends felt that it was not worth it for Huazi to do such an unlucky job. However, Huazi did not agree. He always said that he was lucky because two of his brothers had died in front of him. If he did not continue in this industry, he would be letting down his brothers who had died in front of him.
When Xu Yun first came to this anti-drug team, Huazi had already retired from the frontline. It was not that he did not want to do dangerous work, but that the organization said that he was not suitable for it.
Because his hearing was not good, it was harder for him to detect the sounds made by the drug dealers compared to others.
Although Huazi felt regretful, he obeyed the organization's arrangement. This was because he did not want to be a burden to the organization. He did not want to bring danger to the brothers around him. In the ten years that Huazi had been in the frontline, he had been awarded the second-class merit once and the third-class merit seven times. His favorite thing was to take out these merit medals and look at them over and over again.
He told Xu Yun that these merit medals were the most precious thing in his life. They were more precious than his life.
Huazi still did not have a wife and children. It was not that he could not find one, but that he did not want to find one. He said that he was always ready to return to the frontline at any time. That way, his life would be in danger at any time. He did not want to implicate a woman.
He did not dare to have a child because he did not want to sacrifice himself one day and leave his child without a father.
His family said that he was unfilial, but Huazi said that since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety could not be achieved at the same time. Since he had chosen to be loyal to the country, he might not be able to be filial like others.
Although Huazi was very disappointed when he said this, he quickly recovered. He said that he still had two brothers and that they would be filial to him.
Huazi did not have any savings. He sent all his money to his family. Although he knew that this salary could not make up for his unfilial behavior, if he did not do this, he would feel even worse.
Xu Yun knew Huazi from the equipment warehouse. After Huazi left the frontline, he began to take care of the protective equipment used by the police, such as bulletproof vests and helmets. Huazi was very dedicated to this work. He said that if the defensive equipment had been more advanced, fewer brothers would have died.
In recent years, in order to fight against the rising trend of armed drug trafficking, the police increased the protection of the anti-drug officers.
Every time there was a checkpoint, bulletproof protective equipment was indispensable. Huazi's anti-drug team was also equipped with Kevlar bulletproof vests that could block submachine gun bullets. Huazi said that it was the best thing in the world.
However, although the police station continued to increase the protection of the officers, some anti-drug officers were still on the edge of danger.
Huazi said that in most cases, they could not wear bulletproof vests. The reason was simple. When they were secretly working, wearing bulletproof vests was equivalent to telling the drug dealers that the police were here!
In addition, they often had to climb up and down in the tropical rainforest. They were not soldiers from the special forces and did not have good physical fitness. Although they were very strong and had been persisting in training, there were not many who could carry bulletproof vests that weighed dozens of kilograms and walk far in the harsh road conditions.
In the rainforest, chasing drug dealers was an extremely dangerous job. Any mistake could lead to injury or even death.
Huazi had once told Xu Yun that once they walked into the rainforest, it was very dangerous. Not only did they have to be wary of drug dealers with guns, they also had to endure the overwhelming number of mosquitoes, leeches, poisonous snakes, and the barbed vines in the forest and the cave under the rotten leaves.
What Huazi had told Xu Yun in the past was the reason why Xu Yun was able to handle the situation here with ease.
They were now in a forest across the border. Huazi had told Xu Yun about all the dangers here. Every time Xu Yun encountered the dangers that Huazi had warned him about, he would think of Huazi in his heart.
Xu Yun did not know if he would have the chance to see him this time. If he had the chance to see him, Xu Yun would be very happy.
At this time, Xu Yun saw a hidden cave and pulled Lin Ge away.
If it was late at night, then he really did not know what would happen in the next second.
Huazi had told Xu Yun his story. Huazi had accidentally fallen into a cave at night. The cave was very dark and full of unknown poisonous insects.
Huazi said that he was very lucky because most people who fell into the cave would either fall to their deaths or be bitten to death by poisonous insects … Huazi did not die, so he was very lucky. He was so lucky that every time he chatted with Xu Yun, he would mention his luck.
Xu Yun liked Huazi's optimism.
Huazi always said that a person should be happy. He would make himself happy every day because only then would he not regret it after death.
The drug dealers had taken the lives of anti-drug police like Huazi along the long border and the flickering lights in the city. Xu Yun did not dare to count because he could not count clearly. Some people were killed by guns, some people fell off the cliff with the drug dealers, and some people were killed by grenades.
At that time, Xu Yun said that he felt that it was necessary to find the media to interview them so that people would remember them as heroes.
But Huazi said that it was absolutely impossible. They had to hide themselves from the public eye. They were afraid that the drug dealers would see their faces, which would make their work more difficult.
Huazi said very seriously that they gathered together to do this work not to leave a name or to be a hero, but because of their hatred for drugs and their sense of mission to the country.
At that time, Xu Yun's admiration for them rose from the bottom of his heart. He really admired these "ordinary soldiers" in the eyes of the special forces. Because of them, drugs did not spread on such a large scale in their country. This was the bottom line that they protected with their blood and lives.
