2976 Admiration
During the five days and four nights of competition, they completed dozens of courses and exercises. Among them, there were a few performance courses. It was almost 200 kilometers of cross-country raid. If they didn’t check the time strictly, they might not be able to reach the control checkpoint at the specified time.
If they didn’t reach the control checkpoint at the specified time, they wouldn’t be able to receive the next competition course. If they couldn’t receive the next competition course, the course would be canceled and their points would be deducted.
The generals of the observation team thought that China would rest along the way too. At around 12:00 AM, news came from the control station that China was the first country to arrive at the control station and receive the next competition course. For a moment, the generals of several countries were so agitated that they could no longer sleep.
“What?! The Chinese have arrived at the control station? They’ve arrived at the control station? Aren’t they resting? Have they been walking?”
The commander-in-chief of the Estonian National Defense wiped his face. He couldn’t hide his surprise.
He thought that the Chinese participants had chosen to rest like the other countries!
But they hadn’t.
The Chinese soldiers didn’t rest. They continued marching!
God, were they made of steel?
“There’s no need to be surprised. The Chinese soldiers are very outstanding. During their resistance training, they went on a 25,000-kilometer journey. In such a cruel environment, their soldiers kept walking and survived. This is the power of role models. They’ve been influenced by generations of Chinese soldiers.” General Karlisle stood beside the commander-in-chief of the Estonian National Defense and looked up at the Chinese soldiers on the screen. “They’re soldiers from China. There are many things for us to learn from them.”
General Karlisle had studied in China in his early years. He was very interested in the history of the Chinese’s resistance, especially the 25,000-kilometer march, which created miracles for mankind.
He had seen a lot of information about the ‘Long March’ and heard many touching stories. Hence, he had always respected the Chinese soldiers.
As a soldier, the commander-in-chief of the Estonian National Defense naturally knew about the Chinese’ Long March. This was the last unbelievable feat in human history, an unbelievable miracle.
“General Karlisle, I think I finally understand why you said that China used their strength to create miracles. Their ancestors were really great. They weren’t afraid of hardships or sacrifices. Their Long March has become the strongest motivation in the soldiers’ souls. Hence, even though it’s the first time the Chinese soldiers are participating in the competition, they’re not afraid. They’re moving ahead bravely.”
General Karlisle looked at the screen and looked at the Chinese soldiers who were receiving the next competition course at the control station. He said in admiration, “This is a belief. It’s the core of an army’s combat power.
“When I was studying in China, the Chinese soldiers told me that their martyrs had the revolutionary spirit of facing death calmly. This shocked me very much.”
A person needed to have faith, and so did an army.
With unwavering faith, no matter how difficult the road ahead was, they would continue without any hesitation. That was how they could be invincible and win a hundred battles!
“Senior Colonel Amitabh of the SFS border defense team looks down on the Chinese soldiers. He’s like a frog sitting in a well. He only sees the sky above the well and will never be able to see how vast the sky outside the well is. He looks down on the Chinese soldiers. He’s destined to lose this competition very badly.”
After General Karlisle finished speaking in a low voice, he stopped paying attention to the screen. The Chinese soldiers were no longer on the screen. They had received the next competition course and left the control station.
