Cao Lubao's goal in joining the army is very clear: to complete his service period, receive a retirement payment, and go home to find a stable job.
He has nothing to do with protecting his family or his country, or being a top soldier in special operations. He is physically weak and not very courageous. When encountering trouble, his first reaction is to hide. When he sees the credit, he first wonders if he will take responsibility. The purpose of studying as a national defense student is to save tuition, to go to the Communications Company for stability, and to go to the border to obey the distribution.
——
On the black market in Southeast Asia, a reward of US$3 million is offered for the head of a Chinese soldier.
After hanging up for three years, no one dared to answer.
That person's name is Cao Lubao.
During the island siege, he jumped from the cliff with a machine gun in his hand and fired all five ammunition chains, leaving enemy corpses piled up in mountains; when the dense forest penetrated, he sniped and killed twelve mercenaries alone, with headshots and bullets; in a joint operation, he led his team to go deep into the enemy's back 300 kilometers, blow up the arsenal, capture the enemy's leader alive, and escape intact.
No one believed that three years ago, he was still a communications soldier who couldn't even run three kilometers and only dared to lower his head when something happened.
What changed him was an ambush and a patrol that never came back.
He took the initiative to apply for transfer, trained from a communications corps to a combatant, entered the Feilong Special Warfare from an ordinary army, and broke into the secret system from the open battlefield.
Others laughed at him as a man who wanted to join the army, but how could he become more dangerous the more he joined the army.
He didn't say why. He just didn't want anyone to die on the battlefield because of his cowardice.
