While Ye Zhifan was signing the papers, Xia Jinyuan, who was sitting in the truck, was jolted by the bumpy mountain road. He opened his eyes, which were slightly dazzled by the light from the snow. There was a two-hour time difference between Beijing and the Snowfield Plateau, which was covered in white snow. Under the sunlight, everything was dazzling and bright.
"Do you want to take some oxygen?" Someone turned sideways and asked calmly. His deep voice was so calm that there was no trace of anger. "The sea level is just over five kilometers. If you want to rest, let the car..."
In front of them, the rumbling sound of rolling rocks interrupted his words. The soldier driving the truck seemed to have predicted this and stepped on the brakes. He turned his head and smiled. "Q King, the snow mountain welcomes your arrival with an appetizer."
Regardless of whether it was the soldier driving the truck or the soldier sitting beside Xia Jinyuan, they were all familiar with each other.
The soldier driving the truck was J5, who always spoke lazily and casually with a sense of cynicism. The soldier sitting beside Xia Jinyuan was K7, a soldier with a medical background and the rank of captain.
Xia Jinyuan opened the military water bottle and drank two mouthfuls of cold, snow-like water. He glanced at the gray weathered rocks rolling down the mountain road and said calmly, "What an exciting way to welcome you. We are still a few hours away from the Ministry of War. We still have to repair the mountain road later. Can we pass it in half an hour?"
"I don't know. We have to see how long the rocks will roll down. Sit tight. I have to go back a little bit first. " In front of them were rolling rocks and the mountain road behind them was steep. On the left side, they could see a rapid river, which looked like a huge dragon.
The mountain road was not an asphalt road or a cement road, but a gravel road. As the engine of the military truck turned, J5 nimbly and quickly turned the steering wheel. In less than ten seconds, the truck had reversed several meters.
J5 and K7 were both soldiers from the Snowfield Brigade. They joined the army two years before Xia Jinyuan. J5 graduated from the Army Academy, while K7 was a forensic doctor who joined the army halfway through his career.
After the car was reversed and there was no sign of the rocks rolling down the road, the three of them took out crowbars from the toolbox and directly pried the biggest rocks from the roadside into the river. Listening to the sounds of the rocks rolling down the road, J5 secretly glanced at Xia Jinyuan, who was expressionless, and a hint of appreciation flashed across his eyes.
The all-rounded Soldier King, the King who took down the trump card Q in one fell swoop was indeed a soldier with guts.
K7 picked up the lever and threw it into his toolbox. He looked at the young major, who didn't even frown, and said coldly, "Much better than you."
He always spoke inexplicably. If he didn't mention names, no one would know who he was talking about. Other people didn't know, but his comrade, J5, knew.
"I'm much better than you. I still remember that you started vomiting on your first day when you were less than five thousand meters above sea level. Your little face was so pale that it really made my heart ache." J5 smiled slightly and patted Xia Jinyuan's shoulder. He sighed and said, "Q King, I have high hopes for you. This kid has always been arrogant in the army. Before the brigade leader retired, we could still suppress him a little. Now, we're hoping for someone better to suppress his arrogance."
As a new recruit to the Snowfield Brigade, even if Xia Jinyuan was a major, he couldn't put on airs in front of them.
The Snowfield Brigade was a very special unit. The soldiers in it were nameless. No one knew where they came from, and no one knew where they were going. Even if they died, they were nameless heroes. Their code name was their name until they retired.
