BXBX NOVEL Chapter 847 My Heart Aches Especially Bad Seeing This!
"This isn\'t a novel or a movie. It\'s a real-life incident that really happened in our world! I remember the article said this… There\'s a group of people in this world. They don\'t have photos or even names, yet they build up an iron wall for us using their flesh and blood. It\'s referring to our noble narcotics police! But I also know that there\'s this group of people… who, like the narcotics police, shielded us from war and darkness, and protected the peace and prosperity we have before our eyes. Sometimes, even the lives of their families are implicated! This is the special armed forces of our country…"
Lin Nuan\'s pleasant and warm voice had the power to inspire others, capturing everyone\'s ears and hearts the instant she spoke!
At that point, Lin Nuan turned to Camera #2 and continued, "I experienced the Iraq War, I\'ve seen corpses scattered across burnt lands, I know what it\'s like to live in trepidation, and I\'ve experienced the most helpless despair in war! I\'ve had a gun pointed to my forehead, thinking death was about to descend upon me. Yet, I was rescued from the god of death by this group of people!"
"In 2011, during the evacuation of Chinese nationals from Libya, our country deployed 182 Chinese civil aviation charters, five cargo ships, four military aircraft, and rented more than 20 overseas passenger liners. There are still people who remember… the tear-jerking scene of our nationals loudly singing our national anthem with tears in their eyes while they were detained at the checkpoint and not allowed to pass."
As he listened to Lin Nuan\'s powerful voice, a layer of goosebumps rose over Xing Feng\'s body, emotions starting to well up inside of him.
Lin Nuan then turned to Camera #1. "In 2014, during the evacuation of nationals from Iraq, I was part of it! Being overseas… the feeling of not being given up on by my home country, being rescued and brought back home! No one can feel it more deeply than those who have experienced it!"
"These are more high profile cases of the evacuation of nationals, and there have been more operations like this! Such as during the New Zealand earthquake… Before other countries could react, and while citizens of other countries were still trying and failing to get through to their ambassadors on the phone, our country\'s ambassador had already booked a plane to help evacuate our citizens who were there as tourists. The speed astounded the world! When the forest fire in Israel happened, it was once again our country who… at the very first instant, evacuated our overseas students from that place of danger!
"When we look at these reports, or after we experience such events, what are our feelings? Agitated and overwhelmed! We feel that our home country is strong and powerful, and we love our home country even more! I feel from the bottom of my heart that… what truly makes one proud of their country, what\'s truly able to display its greatness, is that in times of unrest or natural disaster, our home country can bring us home at the first instant!"
Lin Nuan\'s impassioned speech made those present overwhelmed with emotions!
"But…" Lin Nuan changed her tone. "While we think about how strong and powerful our country is, while we thank our country, no one has ever paid attention to… the many special armed forces personnel who have sacrificed while trying to protect us civilians, to help us evacuate from those war-torn places! Our country naturally wouldn\'t report such news, for they are soldiers. In their eyes… a soldier\'s greatest mission is to use their life and warm blood to protect the civilians of their nation! Sacrifice is but an ordinary matter!"
"In 2014, I returned home from Iraq, but many young special forces soldiers have remained there forever, unable to return home ever again!" As Lin Nuan said this, her voice started choking, her eyes turning awfully red.
Miss Xia stared at the audience number, her heart jumping very fast…
The ratings had reached 13.6%. Miss Xia gripped the clothes in front of her chest, confident that after this show, no one would be able to shake Lin Nuan\'s position in the hosting world!
"This is the first episode of our show, \'After Heroes.\' The guest we have invited is a special forces soldier who took part in the Iraq evacuation. He has received many merits during his time of service and has taken part in countless missions, big and small. In 2016, while he was taking part in a confidential mission, in order to ensure the mission\'s success, he lost a leg and suffered extensive burns all over his body, thus retired from the army! To protect the safety of our heroes and their families, our production crew has decided to make our heroes put on masks and sunglasses. We seek everyone\'s understanding! Let\'s raise our hands and welcome our hero, Wang Mang…"
Ever since the show started, ratings were rapidly climbing.
Simultaneously, the statistics from several of the large video streaming platforms also came out and were unbelievably high. Fang Yan took the statistics and quickly ran towards Miss Xia and Xing Feng, so excited that she was unable to speak properly. "Look! Look…"
Unable to care less about the need to observe boundaries as members of the opposite sex, Miss Xia and Xing Feng huddled together to look. Miss Xia was shocked by the statistics!
Xing Feng couldn\'t understand the statistics, so he looked up and gazed at Miss Xia. Seeing Miss Xia\'s hands trembling and noticing how immensely pleased she looked, he immediately understood the situation.
"Look at the comments below!" Fang Yan whipped out her phone and casually tapped on a video streaming site for Miss Xia and Xing Feng to see.
[A blue cat: I never imagined that Ms. Lin Nuan would have such a gentle and warm voice. Right from the opening of the show, her voice gave me goosebumps all over, especially when she spoke of them singing our national anthem. The way tears were rolling about in her eyes. It was like our national anthem was playing in my ears!]
[Either become thin or die: I love my home country! I also love these adorable soldiers who are defending us! It\'s you who used your bodies of flesh and blood to construct the Great Wall that protected our peace! You are the noblest heroes! After heroes… we can\'t let you sacrifice for nothing! You ought to receive better treatment, treatment worthy of heroes!]
[Blue and thin mushroom: My uncle is a narcotics police officer. Nobody in my family knows where he was buried after he died. They said… they were worried that we might attract the attention of those drug lords if we were to pay our respects to him!]
[Girl born in the 90s: I know of this uncle who lived upstairs from us, who used to be a soldier. Later, he lost both of his eyes and came back after retiring from the army. Many many years later, when that uncle was no longer around, my older brother came back after serving in the military, and we found out that he used to be a special forces soldier. My older brother found out when he saw that uncle on a list of exemplary soldiers published by the army. That uncle had taken part in a confidential operation and got injured while trying to protect the safety of our head of state. Hence, he had to retire! I remember that uncle later made a living by repairing household appliances, living in poverty. I feel that our heroes shouldn\'t have such an ending! They protected our country at the expense of their health and lives, yet after they got injured, there was no one to look after them! My heart aches especially bad seeing this!]
