"Little Shunzi, we're home…"
In the cabin, Lin Changsheng looked at a coffin covered in flags and murmured softly.
Little Shunzi was sacrificed in the country. According to normal practice, the coffin should not be covered with a national flag, but a military flag.
However, there were exceptions. Martyrs who had made outstanding contributions to the country could be sent back to their hometown under the flag, just like those who had died overseas.
Little Shunzi's family had two martyrs in a row. This kind of situation was naturally a special case.
Therefore, the coffin was covered with a flag.
"Time's up, it's time to send Xiao Shunzi away, platoon leader.”
Noticing that the cabin door was slowly opening, the first squad leader reminded Lin Changsheng.
" Got it. Send him away…" Lin Changsheng took a deep breath and smiled, but his eyes were red.
"Yes, sir!"
The first squad leader immediately stood up, tidied up his hat and military uniform, and solemnly held the coffin in his hands.
He led the soldiers who had already lined up neatly behind him and slowly walked towards the cabin entrance.
At the same time, the military band on the open space outside started playing a song of longing.
Stomp!
Stomp!
Stomp!
The first squad leader led the soldiers of the first squad and walked step by step along the gangway towards Li Shun's family members who were already crying.
With every step, they used all their strength, making clear sounds.
Their movements might not be so standard and could not be compared to professional ceremonial soldiers at all, but their aura was incomparable.
Even through the cameras, the people watching in front of the big screen could feel an indescribable aura.
This was requested by all the soldiers of the 116th regiment. Little Shunzi was a member of the 116th regiment. Even if he was sacrificed now, the 116th regiment could only send him off.
At the same time, he was also announcing to the others that Li Shun was a member of Regiment 116. Li Shun's family was naturally their family.
Although there shouldn't be anyone who would be blind enough to provoke them, if anyone was really stupid, the entire 116th Regiment of more than 1,000 soldiers were not to be trifled with!
Among the people who came to welcome the hero home, there were three generals from the military, more than ten senior colonels, and the police.
At this moment, they were all accompanying Li Shun's family as they watched this special team walk towards them step by step.
There was no need to elaborate on what happened after that. In just a few years, she had sent away her husband and son, her father and younger brother…
Although Li Shun's mother and sister had been holding back from crying too loudly, they still broke down in the end.
Lin Changsheng, who was hiding in the cabin, could hear them crying outside.
Lin Changsheng gently wiped away a tear from his face and looked up at the top of the plane. He took a few deep breaths to make his eyes return to normal.
He had been in the border troops for two years. Actually, Little Shunzi was not the first martyr he had seen, but he was the first subordinate he had sacrificed since he joined the army.
When killing enemies, Lin Changsheng could kill dozens of people without mercy.
However, when it was his turn to suffer casualties, he could not hold it in any longer…
He was also human. Hearing the wails of the family members of the soldiers, his heart felt as if it was being pricked by countless needles.
If only he hadn't hesitated because of the so-called " hostage " and thought of a countermeasure, but had directly killed the drug dealer boss, how good would that be?
If only he could bring Little Shunzi with him and not let this kid who was about to retire charge so far, how good would that be?
If…
Unfortunately, life was destined to never have a second chance. What had already happened could not be changed.
Just like his fate, he was about to leave the 116th Regiment, the old unit that he had stayed in for two years, and report to the Wolf Fang Special Combat Brigade in the Southeast Military Region.
He would become a special forces soldier who only had a code name and no real name. He could not reveal his face, and he could not even tell others about his great achievements within a certain number of years.
A warrior hiding in the darkness!
It was also because of this that he did not get off the plane to meet Li Shun's family. Otherwise…the person holding Li Shun's coffin at this moment would be him.
……
The welcoming ceremony at the airport went on very quickly. It ended in less than an hour.
Chuanshu International Airport resumed the delayed flights, but the citizens were no longer in a hurry to board the plane. Instead, they collectively watched as a special convoy of military vehicles and police cars slowly disappeared into the distance.
It was the convoy that welcomed the hero Li Shun. A small group of cavalry was at the front to clear the way. All the roads along the way were under traffic control to ensure that the hero's way home was smooth!
The destination of this trip was the Tianfu Cemetery for Martyrs.
Ever since it was established, many sons of Sichuan and Shu were buried there, ranging from colonel and brigade level officers to ordinary soldiers.
However, without exception, they were all heroes who sacrificed their lives to protect the safety of life and property or to fight against foreign enemies.
It was precisely because there were countless military police like them who were silently guarding this stretch of rivers and mountains that the mountains and rivers were truly safe and the weather was smooth!
