Soldiers Assault: Starting from the 7th Steel Company

Chapter 148 Don't do such self-righteous things again.
"Chen Jiang, could this be your long-lost younger brother?" Wu Zhe couldn't help but tease when he saw this scene.

Chen Jiang glanced at him and now he also felt that the other person looked like him. When he used his perception ability to scout before, he only needed to know the number of people and basic information, so he did not observe in such detail. Now that he looked at him up close, he found that they did look quite alike.

The two were almost identical, except that Chen Jiang had no tattoos, the other had long hair, and his teeth were yellowed.

Chen Jiang was also a little confused. Could it be that his parents really gave birth to twins?

In this life, Chen Jiang remembers himself as an orphan. His parents died heroically in the self-defense counterattack against foreign aggression, and his grandmother also passed away later.

He also didn't have a maternal grandparents' home, because his mother herself was a descendant of the L family.

So Chen Jiang has no close relatives left. Now that someone who looks a lot like him has suddenly appeared, what if he is actually a twin brother or sister? Wouldn't it be a great pity to kill the wrong person?

This man was none other than Kunji!

It turned out that he had long ago seen the extraordinary nature of Chen Jiang and his team's attack, and felt that staying by Santos's side would only make him a casualty, so he chose to slip away at the first opportunity.

He was fast, but Chen Jiang and the others were even faster, so they were still knocked unconscious by the shockwave.

Royce and the others had different ideas. Since they had already gone this far, leaving him alive now would put them in a very passive position if he revealed the truth.

After all, what they did was enough to cause international disputes and send them to their deaths, so it's best to be cautious.

“Chen Jiang, he looks a bit like you, but you are Chinese, and he doesn’t look like you at all, so he’s definitely not your brother!” As he spoke, he released the safety on the gun.

Everyone knew what he was going to do, so they didn't stop him. Even Michael wisely stayed away.

"My God, you're all still alive?"

Suddenly, a sound came from behind.
When everyone turned around, they realized that it was actually government reinforcements. They hadn't arrived earlier or later, but they had to arrive at this exact moment.

Instructor Crocodile was among them. He was very happy to see Chen Jiang and the others, after all, they were all elites he had trained.

Upon seeing so many people arrive, Royce immediately pointed his gun upwards and asked with a forced smile, "Instructor, are there any medics? There's a survivor here!"

When the crocodile instructor heard that there were still survivors, he was overjoyed. He led the reinforcements and rushed to the scene, only to see a tremendous explosion. Based on his experience, he knew from the billowing black smoke that the oil depot had been blown up.

Furthermore, the preconceived notion that it was mostly the work of bandits often leads to few survivors in such a suicidal tactic.

Now that we've discovered that Chen Jiang and the others are all alive, and there's also one surviving bandit, things are much easier to handle.

He waved to the back, and immediately people wearing Red Cross symbols rushed up, picked up Kunji, and carried him away.

Royce got up to accompany him, and Chen Jiang understood that he wanted to take the opportunity to kill the other party, but Instructor Crocodile stopped Royce, "You don't need to go. Don't worry, although this guy is a bandit, we also have armed escorts to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"You are all heroes, you should go back and enjoy the treatment of heroes!"

When he and his men saw the scene up close, they were also stunned.
The scene was a mess, with corpses scattered everywhere, but they were all the bodies of bandits, which showed Chen Jiang and his men's formidable fighting ability.

Michael and the others vividly described the battle situation to him and the group of military leaders who followed them. Of course, all of this was arranged in advance by the six of them.

The six-man squad launched a surprise attack, and the enemy's previous successful ambush had made them complacent. After suffering heavy losses, they went so far as to blow up the oil depot.

As for why they used RPGs, Chen Jiang and his team had already come up with a solution. Perhaps the bandits were desperate and would resort to any means necessary. When people are pushed to the limit, there's no room for reason.

Since there's no way to verify anything now that they're dead, let them say what they want.

Most importantly, Chen Jiang and his team believed that Kunji probably didn't know the oil depot had been detonated by RPGs.

All I can do now is pray.

The military leaders did not comment after hearing this, because many people had died this time, including many from the United States. The case needed to be investigated by a team of military experts. It was best not to draw any conclusions before the final results were available.

Instructor Crocodile wasn't that cunning.

Seeing that so many people were sent out, and only six of them survived, they felt a sense of kinship with them.

It was quite unusual for him to frankly tell Michael and others that his real name was Steiger, that he was of German descent, but that he had lived in Venezuela for many years and had long considered it his home.

In his view, the bandits were so vicious that it was already quite an achievement for Chen Jiang and his men to have wiped them all out and survived.

Rescuing Z was unrealistic to begin with. The bandits weren't stupid; it was either let them go or it was a lose-lose situation.

But if they are released, will Venezuela still have any international image left?
So this result is already quite acceptable, since there are no Germans or Venezuelans among them.

Steiger also didn't have a good impression of the United States, as this country had bombed his former homeland quite a few times in the past.
Of course, these are things that can only be thought in one's heart; it's impossible to say them out loud.

Now that things have been settled here and the scene has been protected and handed over to others, there is little point in them staying here any longer. They need to go to the bottom of the valley to collect the bodies of the trainees and give their country an explanation.

At the same time, we should reward and celebrate Chen Jiang and his team. The dead are gone, but the living must continue to live.

When all the trainees' remains were collected and their countries were notified to collect them, the diplomats of those countries were outraged by the mob's inhumanity and thanked Michael for his brave and decisive command.

Chen Jiang attributed all the credit for the raid on the bandits' hideout to Michael, thus giving himself more room to maneuver.

Michael was very pleased with this, feeling that Chen Jiang was a true friend. With so many achievements, he could rise to prominence in the military and even the political arena upon returning to China.

Of course, on the surface he must have been devastated, so many of his good brothers had died in battle.

Royce, Johnson, Gypsy, and the others all knew what was going on, but now that the die was cast, they had to play along.

The headmaster of the Hunter School spoke up and gave the students high praise, thanking them for everything they had done for world peace and justice.

But that's all. For their families, no amount of honor can bring back a life. Their families will be immersed in grief for a long time and unable to pull themselves out.

The only thing that brought them some comfort was that the murderers who killed their children had been killed by Michael and his gang, which could be considered revenge.

After settling the affairs of the deceased, the next step was the grand graduation ceremony for Chen Jiang and the others.

Because the Hunter School has a very low graduation rate—only 6 out of more than 100 students graduated this time, the lowest rate in its history—it highlights the difficulties Chen Jiang and his classmates faced. Therefore, not only did Major General Conway Ross attend the ceremony as the principal, but also a host of Venezuelan political and military leaders were present, making the ceremony very ceremonial.

The Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces also delivered a speech, thanking them for standing with the Venezuelan people in the fight, undaunted by powerful enemies and black forces, and for helping Venezuela eradicate this scourge.

As a result, they not only received their coveted graduation certificates, but also had the honor of becoming honorary citizens of Venezuela, and their names will be engraved on the school's graduate nameplates.

Michael's name was engraved in the most prominent position because of Chen Jiang's merit.

Wu Zhe was a little confused and privately asked Chen Jiang why he was given all these honors. He said that if Chen Jiang hadn't been so stubborn, these people wouldn't have had to die.

Chen Jiang simply smiled faintly.

"I don't care about these honors Venezuela has given me at all! If we don't give him these credits, it will cause a lot of trouble for the country if the matter is exposed in the future. But now that we've given them to him, he's become our shield. Even if they find out the truth in the future, we'll probably have to swallow our anger. Because Michael's home country is a very important ally of theirs."

In the days that followed, the two waited for notification to return home, but unexpectedly, the embassy staff wanted to see them first.

It was their old friend, Counselor Liu, who came to pick them up.

He was overjoyed to see the two of them, because he was the one who had brought them to the hunter school in the first place.
"I knew it! You two would definitely do it!"

It was just a well-intentioned wish, but the two of them proved to be so capable that they not only survived the highly competitive selection process, but also helped Venezuela eliminate the rioters.

This is truly bringing glory to the country!
After exchanging a few polite words with Wu Zhe, Chen Jiang talked about what Liu Jinming had seen and heard here, which gave him a more direct understanding of Venezuela.

Ambassador Wang personally received them and gave them high praise, but soon someone called Chen Jiang and the others aside for a talk. First Wu Zhe, and after a while, it was Chen Jiang's turn.

This made Chen Jiang a little uneasy, because he could sense that those people were from Interpol and had specifically asked Wu Zhe about the operation.

Fortunately, Wu Zhe had excellent adaptability and trusted himself quite a bit, so he didn't reveal any flaws.

When it was his turn, he already had a good idea of ​​what to expect.

"My surname is Cui. I am the liaison officer for the Asia-Pacific region of Interpol. We have invited you here today to verify some things with you. Please tell us the truth and do not hide anything from us. Do you understand?"

This is a very refined police officer, wearing black-rimmed glasses. He is not wearing a police uniform, but only civilian clothes.

Without his identification and if you hadn't met him here, you would never have guessed that he was a high-ranking Interpol officer; you might have mistaken him for a university professor.

Since Venezuela is not a member of Interpol, it is understandable that it keeps a low profile here.

But when faced with Officer Cui's questioning, Chen Jiang couldn't help but want to laugh.

Almost everyone in a superior position speaks to those below in this tone, as if honest answers will guarantee a clean break. But the truth is, being overly honest can lead to serious consequences.

"Okay, Officer Cui, I will answer all your questions to the best of my ability!" Chen Jiang said very politely.

Officer Cui was merely asking routine questions, at least for the first few sentences. He asked Chen Jiang to recount the entire incident in as much detail as possible.

This is also a common method used by the police in handling cases: by repeatedly recounting the same event, some clues will eventually emerge.

But Chen Jiang was incredibly shrewd. When he talked about these things, it was as if he were actually there. In particular, his and Wu Zhe's accounts were almost identical, except for their different perspectives.

Despite his earnest efforts, Officer Cui listened very attentively, even asking questions at times, and Chen Jiang answered perfectly.

Chen Jiang was somewhat surprised because Officer Cui's face showed absolutely no emotion; he was truly calm and composed.

Chen Jiang knew that such people usually had extremely strong thinking abilities, and he couldn't be careless.

Sure enough, after talking for a while, Officer Cui went over and turned off the surveillance video in the room, then coldly asked, "Don't do this kind of self-righteous thing again!"

Chen Jiang was terrified by his words and broke out in a cold sweat.

But she still tried to remain calm and said, "Officer Cui, I don't understand what you mean?"

Officer Cui pulled up a chair and sat opposite him, calmly lit a cigarette, and then asked Chen Jiang if he wanted one. After confirming that the other man didn't smoke, he gave an irrelevant answer.

"It's not a good habit for a man not to smoke!"

This left Chen Jiang completely baffled.

“You guys must have all colluded to give the same story. Let me tell you the truth, they all insist that it’s exactly as you said, and judging from the situation at the scene, it’s definitely true. Everything is flawless!”

Officer Cui calmly exhaled a smoke ring.
"But this matter, you know it, he knows it, I may not know it, but Heaven knows it!"

Chen Jiang was a little confused by what he was saying. What did it mean?
"What do you mean? Officer Cui, I don't quite understand what you're saying."

Even though he asked that question, Chen Jiang still became a little nervous.

"Because so many beautiful Chinese people are involved, do you think their satellite system wouldn't be tracking it in real time? Everything that happened on site, although it seemed flawless, could still be uncovered if they analyzed the satellite photos bit by bit!"

Officer Cui smokes very quickly; it's clear he's quite a heavy smoker.

He finished the cigarette in a few puffs and then stubbed it out in the ashtray.

"Furthermore, your testimonies are too consistent, and the human element is too obvious. Even I, who am not an expert in this field, can sense it, let alone the fact that there are professionals in the country who specialize in this kind of work. Even if you two can withstand the test, what about Michael and Royce? And that guy from Kenya, do they have the same strong mental fortitude as you?"

Chen Jiang was deeply shocked by his words, realizing that he had underestimated the talented people in the world!

But his expression remained calm; he wasn't foolish enough to "surrender."

"If there were satellite photos, that would be even better. It would save me from being interrogated by you here, wouldn't it? I also believe that many major countries in the world have the ability to distinguish between genuine and fake information, which would be perfect for clearing our name!"

Although Officer Cui's eyes never left him, Chen Jiang remained calm and composed in the face of such a powerful and oppressive aura.

"Good, I'm very satisfied with your performance! Now we have a reason to continue our discussion!" Officer Cui smiled.
