In this desperate situation, the members of the White Tiger Regiment are no different from ordinary people.
They are also afraid of death, and even more afraid of sacrificing in vain.
To be precise, they couldn't even be considered to have made sacrifices. They were inexplicably trapped in this sea area without having the time to do anything. It was really frustrating.
The members of the elite team were not afraid of death, but they were afraid of this kind of meaningless death. They had not yet figured out the cause of the devilish weather, so were they going to be buried in this sea area?
Apart from them, the Simi Kingdom has no other army capable of carrying out this task.
In other words, they came with the determination to die, but they might be defeated soon.
If it were the Rangers or the Red Devils, they might still be able to expect a rescue.
The country will not abandon them and will naturally send a rescue force. However, the situation in Simi Country is different.
The warships used by the White Tiger Regiment for this expedition were purchased on credit, and they really did not have the strength to rescue them again.
After the failure of self-rescue, everyone was in extremely low spirits.
Everyone was clearly aware of their situation, and the shadow of death hung over everyone.
It can even be said that they are racing against death.
"Buzz-!!!"
A sound similar to that of a sailing warship pulled the members of the White Tiger Regiment out of the haze of despair, and they burst into tears of joy.
"Great! Another team is passing by! Could it be the Dongshan Army? If I remember correctly, they seemed to be walking at the back!" someone shouted excitedly.
"We are saved! God finally sent someone to rescue us! No matter who it is, please help us contact the headquarters first!" another person also shouted excitedly.
"It may not be the Dongshan Army team. At the same time, all the warships in this sea area may lose contact. If it is really them, they should have arrived no matter how slow they are. The time and speed don't match at all..." someone analyzed calmly.
However, the White Tigers were no longer able to care about that. They said, "Why bother! In this remote place, it's good enough to see a warship! No matter who it is, just grab it first!"
The members of the White Tiger Regiment were extremely excited. Even though they realized that the warships on the other side could not be the Allied Dongshan Army Squadron, they could not suppress their excitement. They felt as if they had escaped from the hands of death and could not help cursing.
The power of escaping death was enormous. The entire Simi warship was filled with the sound of people shouting "Xiba", and the "lingering sound" was lingering.
As a result, Xu Lao and others on the nearby Jiuzhou warship heard it and instantly understood the identity of the other party. Only the people of Simi Country kept saying "Xiba" and "Smida" all day long, so it was especially easy to guess.
Of course, the contact and negotiation process this time was not as complicated as imagined.
Unlike Captain Tanaka who liked to play tricks, Captain Zheng of the White Tiger Regiment directly revealed his identity and asked the opposing warship for help.
He said that no matter who it is, as long as they can help them, it will be fine. Their warship has a malfunction, and the specific cause is unclear...
There will be a generous reward after the task is completed, and you can ask for anything you want.
Captain Zheng naturally didn't know that the warships on the other side were from Kyushu. Even if he knew, he might still shamelessly ask for help. After all, Simi Country really didn't have the strength and courage to challenge them now.
Before leaving, Jin repeatedly stressed the importance of the mission, but more importantly, he had to return safely. Captain Zheng knew this very well, and face was not important. The most important thing now was to survive and ensure safety! He deliberately used the universal language to ask for help, and the strong smell of kimchi was hard to ignore.
Perhaps this is why they don't want to disguise themselves as ships from other countries. The accent of the common language is too obvious, and you can tell it's from Simi Country. In this case, don't think about saving face, the right thing to do is to hurry up and ask for help.
After all, if you lose your life, what does your face mean? Old Xu naturally had no intention of keeping the secret. With the help of the communication system, his voice was clearly transmitted to the ears of every member of the White Tiger Regiment.
"This is the Kyushu Army. If you want to seek help, you will have to pay a price. This sea area is not simple. We are helping you under great pressure and at great risk!"
The faces of the White Tigers changed suddenly. They were overjoyed just now, but now they suddenly lost their joy. They were eager to get help from the outside world, but they didn't expect that at this critical moment, they would encounter the warships of Kyushu. They were happy, but why did it happen to be the Kyushu army!
Everyone was speechless for a moment. Their expectations and excitement were instantly reduced by half, and they even felt a little uncomfortable. When they were at their wits' end, they did think that no matter who it was, as long as they could help, it would be fine. But when they really encountered the Kyushu army, it was like a mouthful of phlegm stuck in their throats. They couldn't swallow it, nor could they spit it out. It was just uncomfortable and uncomfortable!
The relationship between Simi and Kyushu is not too bad, but it is definitely not that good. It is not like the intense and fierce conflict between Neon and Kyushu, but they are also countries close to each other on the map, and there are more or less some hidden competition and conflicts between them.
"What should we do? Do we really have to ask Kyushu for help? But we were blackmailed by them not long ago..."
"Yes, they are a group of robbers. If we really ask them for help this time, we don't know what they will ask for!"
"But we can't just sit there and wait for death, right? Do we have to wait for the Rangers to come back and help? No, we have to seize this opportunity."
"Yes, which is more important, life or something else? If we keep wasting time like this, we will be wiped out by this bad weather sooner or later. Not to mention completing the mission, I'm afraid we'll even lose our lives!"
……
The members of the White Tiger Group were almost divided into two groups. One group was unwilling to ask for help from Kyushu and planned to wait for the next group of people to come before seeking help. Their reason was that since the Kyushu army had already appeared, other forces were likely on the way, so it was not impossible to wait for an hour or so. The other group was unwilling to wait any longer. They felt that every second was torture and they could encounter unexpected events at any time. No one could be sure when the next group of forces would arrive, maybe an hour later, maybe a day later, or even a month later... Such a gamble was too risky, and they didn't want to be buried in this sea for no reason.
People holding two different views stood on their own sides, and at first they were just arguing verbally. However, after a few minutes, someone couldn't help but curse "Shiba", which was extremely insulting and instantly ignited the flames of war.
Everyone stopped being polite and started swearing at each other, until they were all red in the face and couldn't stop arguing.
"That's enough! Stop arguing! Look at you now. You no longer look like elite soldiers. You're even more fierce than the quarreling aunties in the market! Don't you see what time it is now?"
"Who is the captain anyway? Is it your turn to make a fuss here? I have the final say on all this, so shut up!"
"Besides, we've already asked for help before. Have you all selectively lost your memory? What's the point of saying this now..."
Captain Zheng rolled his eyes speechlessly. He really couldn't understand what these people were thinking. It had come to this point, but they were still so disunited. The quarrels gave him a splitting headache, and he wished he could kick each of them.
If the timing wasn't wrong, he would really punish everyone by making them run dozens of laps to temper their tempers. These elite team members were indeed very strong, but they were also stubborn, and each of them was arrogant and needed a lesson.
Captain Zheng did not give them face, his tone was full of roaring anger. In the Simi country, there is order of seniority, he is both the captain and the oldest one, and the others must obey his command.
As expected, as soon as he got angry, the two groups quickly bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes, changing their previous arrogant and angry appearances, and dared not speak out. At least on the surface, they bowed their heads respectfully and admitted their mistakes.
Captain Zheng picked up the only usable megaphone, which seemed to be a must-have item on a warship. Not only was it on the Neon Kingdom’s warship, but the White Tiger Regiment also brought it. It really came in handy when all the warship equipment failed. Perhaps the logistics team also considered this when preparing, so they symbolically installed a few pieces.
Fortunately, there is this loudspeaker, otherwise even if Captain Zheng shouted at the top of his lungs, the sound would not be very good even though it is several hundred meters away.
On the Kyushu warship, after Mr. Xu's words, the other side fell into silence. He was so excited that his voice was hoarse just now, what was he doing now?
Wang Bo looked strange, and suddenly complained: "Could it be that these people heard the name of Jiuzhou and suddenly became too scared to ask for help? What's the old saying? Seeing a snake in a cup!"
"It's so funny! They don't even know that their headquarters has called for help in advance! I wonder what they are thinking over there."
"Forget it, forget about them, just notify the Simi Country headquarters to transfer the money."
Apart from the Neon Army, the one he disliked the most was the Simi Army. A typical small country mentality, which was described very aptly by the netizens of Kyushu Country - petty, unable to expand their horizons, and unable to afford to lose!
The entire country, from leaders and corporate group CEOs to celebrities, athletes, and ordinary people, seems to be able to see these "qualities". The Chinese people of Simi have often made subtle insinuations about Kyushu on Twitter.
"No, don't contact the Simi Kingdom headquarters yet. The White Tigers' current attitude clearly shows that they don't want to ask the Kyushu Kingdom army for help. This is interesting. Are they waiting for Mi Dad or their own headquarters to come to rescue them?"
"I suddenly feel a little embarrassed to burst their beautiful thoughts. Let's wait and see what tricks the White Tiger Group can come up with."
"If they were more honest, maybe we could pay them more. If their attitude wasn't good, we would have an excuse, right? It's their fault for not seizing the opportunity!"
Huang Jie's mind turned, and suddenly he had a good idea. He briefly stated his idea, but he didn't deliberately target the Simi Kingdom or anything like that.
Although we had negotiated with the Simi Kingdom before, they didn't deliberately look for the White Tiger Group, they just happened to be on the way. We happened to find them on the way to the base, and the other side's attitude was not good, so we might as well take the opportunity to make more money for the headquarters.
This was definitely not an intentional attempt to wrongly accuse the White Tigers. Combined with their initial excitement and their unhesitating attitude in asking for help, they seemed to be inclined to agree to anything.
However, after Mr. Xu revealed his identity, the other side suddenly became quiet, which was hard to ignore. There was no reason or excuse to explain this abrupt change.
Huang Jie suddenly felt uncomfortable. Could it be that the other side was afraid of the name of Jiuzhou? Or was there some abnormal discrimination? He admitted that he was overthinking, but it was not necessarily wrong. Referring to the previous practices of Simi Country, this is completely something they can do!
Not only Huang Jie, but Wang Bo and others also felt a little uncomfortable. When they were negotiating before, they took into account the current situation of Simi Country and deliberately showed mercy, but they didn't expect that the White Tiger Group didn't seem to appreciate it.
Wang Bo and the others looked at each other. They had the same idea, but they still had to wait for Mr. Xu and Mr. Tao to decide.
"It's good for young people to have ideas. If you want to try, just give it a try!" Mr. Tao was the first to speak up. He did not oppose the views of Huang Jie and others. On the contrary, he felt that the issues they were thinking about made sense. This kind of attentiveness and thoughtfulness is even more precious.
"Okay, you guys will be in charge of the communication!" After listening to everyone's opinions, Mr. Xu didn't say much. He directly handed the communication machine to Wang Bo and told them to do their best.
As Mr. Tao said, it is good for young people to have ideas, and they are worth encouraging. Letting them try is the best decision. Of course, the "young people" here should be put in quotation marks. Some of Wang Bo and his colleagues are already leaders, so they cannot be considered young.
However, in the view of Mr. Xu and Mr. Tao, who are approaching retirement age, they are indeed young and at a good age to make achievements. They are flexible in thinking and dare to take responsibility, but they do not have as much experience as their generation and lack some bloodiness. This is a common problem of most young people.
After all, the times are different now, and they haven’t experienced many things…
Seeing that Mr. Xu and Mr. Tao had no objection, Wang Bo and others were eager to try and prepare to have a good discussion about their specific demands with the White Tiger Regiment.
It's not that they are sensitive or overthinking. There is really no need to have any sympathy for the Simi army. If the situation is reversed, who knows how the other side will disgust them!
At this moment, a voice finally came from the opposite warship. Perhaps because the long silence made them feel guilty, the voice sounded particularly weak and lacked confidence, as if they were not justified.
"Well, we just discussed the compensation." Captain Zheng spoke carefully, with a hint of pain in his voice, "(End of this chapter)
