Chapter 1439 Performance(1/2)

In the helicopter cabin that was surrounded by noise, after Wei Ran fixed the seat belt around his waist, he first wrapped the strap of the Minolta camera around his wrist, and then pointed it at the cabin with one hand holding a camera.

M16 rifle, platoon leader George the Wild Boar holds a telescope with his tattooed hand and looks out of the cabin.

Taking advantage of the "professional advantage" of having a rich viewfinder, he loudly reminded, "Platoon Commander George, Platoon Commander George, how about taking off your glasses?"

Hearing this, Captain Wild Boar George turned his head to look at Wei Ran, and happily took off the toad glasses that were covering his glasses.

With just one glance, Wei Ran, who was hiding behind the camera, shrank. The sincerity, gentleness, and enthusiasm in those eyes were so real that they seemed unreal, like...

Just like the way he straightened his waist and leaned forward slightly at this moment and the posture of his body, they were too consistent with the "camera aesthetic" and also too consistent with the attitude of "personal heroism" that is most popular in the United States.

Is this a pretense of "great integrity", or was the previous guess wrong?

Wei Ran pressed the shutter button generously while muttering to himself that was obscured by the noise of the helicopter.

Giving a thumbs up gesture to the other party, Wei Ran moved closer to the edge of the unclosed cabin door, stretched out half of his upper body, and pointed the camera at the jungle under the fuselage, as well as the paddy fields and villages in between.

But this time, he didn't press the shutter - these meaningless scenery were not worth pressing the shutter at all.

While he was busy taking pictures, Zack in the same cabin was chatting with Platoon Leader Wild Boar George using the only communication headset the three reporters had. Even Li Youfu was using the headset hanging around his neck.

A Konica camera was used to take their own "make-up photos" of every American soldier in the cabin, including the helicopter pilot.

In a relatively harmonious atmosphere, the helicopter only flew for less than 20 minutes when a small village appeared outside the cabin.

There are only about twenty or thirty thatched houses in this village. In addition, there are dry paddy fields surrounding the village, buffaloes in the fields, and shepherd boys riding buffaloes.

Soon, four helicopters circled and surrounded the small village from four directions. Then, these helicopters landed one after another. After putting down the soldiers in the cabin, they took off one after another and continued to use the machine guns mounted on the edge of the cabin to attack the enemy.

Preparations may be required for suppressive fire.

The second to last one, the helicopter taken by Wei Ran and others landed on the flat ground next to the paddy field.

When the helicopter they were on took off, and when the last helicopter dropped the soldiers from the squad it was carrying, Wild Boar George took off the steel helmet he put on after boarding the helicopter, and asked his platoon sergeant and

The communications soldiers following behind each borrowed steel helmets, and then handed them to the three guards.

"Gentlemen, even if you don't like to wear turtle shell-like body armor, at least wear a steel helmet." Platoon Leader George said gently.

"Thanks"

Zach went out of his way to take a photo of Platoon Leader Wild Boar George, who was carrying three steel helmets. Then he waved his hand and refused, saying, "The helmets are too distracting for us to take pictures. Besides, we don't have to participate in the battle, so we'll leave it to them."

You guys."

Hearing this, Platoon Leader Wild Boar George did not refuse, but returned the helmets to their respective owners, and at the same time said, "Angus, you should follow the three reporters, and be sure to ensure their safety.

"

"yes!"

Angus responded, then opened his grenade launcher and inserted a No. 4 buckshot shell for close combat self-defense into it.

When everything was ready, Platoon Leader Wild Boar George issued an action order and entered this small village with four helicopters for air surveillance and in conjunction with the infantry's tactic of surrounding three and one missing.

There were only twenty or thirty wooden houses in total, and there were four helicopters overhead with machine guns as support. Even a "veteran" like Weiran would judge the next operation as surgical perfection.

Soon, less than a hundred villagers were gathered into the dry paddy fields on the edge of the village.

Then, in a few sporadic exchanges of fire, the soldiers of Team T successfully captured six or seven guerrillas who were suspected of hiding here, and seized some items in a tunnel, such as the Chinese-made 56 punch, the original AK47, and even

Weapons like SKS and even M3 submachine guns and RPG rocket launchers.

This "clearance battle" lasted less than half an hour, and the price paid by Team T was only a white rifleman who was shot in the thigh.

Under the treatment of Toothless medic Angus, there was no possibility of life-threatening injuries. The medic did not even need to be sent back to the cowshed camp. The medic completed debridement and suturing of the wounded in a thatched house.

And a series of bandaging work.

If this short and smooth battle was perfect, then the behavior of platoon leader Wild Boar George asking his platoon sergeants to distribute canned luncheon meat to the villagers and candy to the children revealed the urinary nature of American soldiers.

Wei Ran couldn't help but shook his head secretly - this show-like battle was really a bit too intense.

The problems he could see could also be seen by Zach and Li Youfu. After all, this was not their first time going to the front line. Naturally, they knew that everything they just saw was too "dreamlike".

Perhaps because of this, Zack, who originally used a Leica camera, changed his shooting equipment to a half-frame camera that was less wasteful of film.

"Platoon Commander George"

Just as a group of American soldiers were loading all the collected weapons and captured guerrillas into the cabin, a white American soldier also found the wild boar George who was being interviewed by Zach, "Boss, there is an old man in the village.

The sole of his foot was pierced by a bamboo stick, and when we first noticed it, the sole of his foot was already infected."

"Angus, please."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wild Boar George said without thinking, "Clean his wounds, give him a shot of penicillin, and leave some medicines. Anyway, you must know what to do."

How to deal with it."

Upon hearing this, Angus, who had just treated the wounded, immediately responded, "Leave it to me."

Before he finished speaking, he had already put away the medical bag and disappeared after the soldier.

He glanced at Wei Ran without any trace, and while writing in his interview notebook, Zach asked, "George, does this happen often? I mean, do you often rescue South Vietnamese villagers in need?

?”

"certainly"

George replied in a matter-of-fact and nonchalant tone, "We are all children of God. We are all created equal, so why not help them? Especially when we have the ability to help them."

"This is a really good sentence. Can I quote it directly into my report?" Zach asked without looking up while writing quickly.

"certainly"

George responded with a smile, and then asked as if he was joking, "I heard that you have a lot of interesting playing cards in your hand? How about using that as reward? Of course, I don't think you need to write this down.

Already."

"No problem at all"

Zach agreed to the other party's "deal" without thinking, stopped writing and said, "Troyer, do you have any playing cards with you? Give a box to Mr. George, and also give him a radio as a gift. That's it."

American heroes with a sense of justice deserve such a gift."

Hearing this, Li Youfu nodded, took off the backpack he was carrying, dug out a box of "poker cards" from the upper backpack, and then pulled out a paper box the size of a cigarette box, handing it over as well.

Gave it to George the Boar.

"This is a miniature radio produced by China National Radio and Television Network. The quality is very good." Zach introduced enthusiastically while putting away his interview notebook.

"Can I open it?" Platoon leader George first put away the playing cards, then looked at the cardboard box in his hand and asked.

"Of course," Zach said with a smile, "it's you now."

Upon hearing this, Zack the Wild Boar immediately opened the cardboard box and pulled out a radio with a black leather case.

This small radio is only about the size of a cigarette box without a filter. It can be operated without taking off the leather case. There is even a retractable antenna next to it.

"I love this little thing!"

Platoon leader George couldn't put it down and played with this little radio.

"Let me help you put the batteries in it."

While Li Youfu was talking, he had already taken out a magazine bag from his bag, took out a button battery, took out a few, and skillfully helped Platoon Leader George put them into the radio.

After turning it on and trying it, Wild Boar George pinned it directly to the rubber strip of the car inner tube stretched on his helmet, and kept saying, "It looks like I can listen to the Voice of America radio program tonight.

Zach, can it get VOA?"

"maybe"

Zach smiled and spread his hands, "At least if you are lucky, you can listen to CBS programs."

"I'll try it tonight"

Wild Boar George touched the small gift pinned to his helmet, then picked up his weapon and said, "Mr. Zack, of course, and Mr. Victor and Troyer, our mission here is about to end, you can

Let’s take a walk around the village before heading back.”

“We did want to walk around the village”

Zach said first, "Can we talk to those villagers?"

"Of course," Platoon Leader George agreed happily.

"In this case, gentlemen, let us hurry up." After Zach finished speaking, he was the first to take a step towards the direction of the village.

After taking a few steps to catch up with Zach, Li Youfu whispered strangely, "We unexpectedly met a real gentleman, Zach. This seems to be different from the rumors you mentioned to me yesterday."

"yes..."

Zach made a noncommittal and perfunctory sound, but did not explain. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Let's go see Angus and take some photos of him. Troye, you can move freely this time."

"

"Don't you need me to translate for you?" Li Youfu asked unexpectedly.

“No need for today”

Zach smiled and said, "Today's protagonists are the gentlemen of Team T, but you must seize this rare opportunity for free interviews."

"I will cherish this opportunity!"
