When you're in the Wolf Pack, your ability to obey orders becomes stronger.

Chapter 118 Tear and Bite - Advanced! Midnight Concert.

The other three rows, who had already assembled not far away, were looking at the obstacle course with surprise.

At this moment, Xu Ge's status in their hearts rose rapidly.

The five most seriously ill soldiers of the Ninth Platoon, who were renowned throughout the entire Sixth Company and even the entire Regiment, were forced to the ground and drilled by a new recruit.
This is an outrageous reversal of the Heavenly Gang!
Xu Ge had no time to pay attention to the reactions of the others. He stared straight at the seven people lying in a row in front of him and shouted, "Single push-ups, first one, start!"

"one!"

Everyone shouted, then lowered themselves and stood up again.

[Military orders are executed 100% by the class/unit, General Skill Value +7, Current Unit gains temporary Physical Proficiency bonus]

A one-minute countdown appeared next to the token, and the balance of general skill points also became 7.

Become!

Xu Ge suppressed his inner elation and quickly gave the second command: "Single push-up, second one, begin!"

"two!"

[Military orders are executed 100% by the class/unit, General Skill Value +7, Current Unit gains temporary Physical Proficiency bonus]

"three!"

"Four!"

"five!"

"stand up!"

After Xu Ge finished shouting, he immediately added all 35 general skill points to the Bite skill.

Tear: Advanced (34/50).

Pretty!

Xu Ge was thrilled to feel his bite force suddenly increase several times over. He thought that if he went to the military dog ​​training class again this weekend, he might be able to reach the upper limit of his biting skill. Then he would know whether he could get a skill related to smell!

"Alright, alright, you Class 9, hurry up and get in line. First and second platoons have been gone for ages. If you get back late, the food will be cold!" Luo Shan urged, suppressing a laugh.

He was also very curious about how Xu Ge managed to get the old squad leader to do a few push-ups.

You should know that normally those four veterans are people even he, as the platoon leader and deputy company commander, can't command.

The veterans all looked dejected, as if they had lost a great deal of face, while Guo Yuanshuai remained calm and went into the third platoon on his own.

"Did you enjoy it?"

Li Dongshui walked over and shoved two bottles of liquor and two packs of cigarettes into Xu Ge's arms, who was chuckling. "Here, take them!"

All three platoons immediately ran out of the training ground gate and headed straight for the camp.

In the group, Su Liujun suddenly twisted his neck a few times while running: "Why do I feel like I'm in such good shape today?"

Wang Lin, who was carrying a 201 high-precision sniper rifle on his back, also looked puzzled: "You know what, it's true. I feel much more relaxed than before?"

"I think I can run 5 kilometers in under 16 and a half minutes now!"

"Me too!"

Li Dongshui was also puzzled: "I didn't feel very tired running today either!"

"What the hell are you all whispering about?" Luo Shan's voice rang out from the side. "Speed ​​up, all of you!"

Xu Ge followed silently behind, holding cigarettes and alcohol, staring at the three-minute countdown displayed on the token, lost in thought.

It now appears that the countdown bonus time can be stacked multiple times, but it's unclear whether the proficiency bonus will also stack.

If it can be stacked, is there a limit? Or can it be stacked indefinitely?
If that's the case, once I become the commander, as long as I keep giving orders to the team, wouldn't the whole team be like Saiyans?

This idea is so outrageous that even Xu Ge himself thinks it's unlikely.

It seems I'll have to find an opportunity to study this temporary buff properly in the future.

. . .

. . .

When the group was halfway there, the weather suddenly changed. Dark clouds loomed over in the blink of an eye, and then hailstones the size of mung beans began to fall.

The soldiers, struck by the impact, sprinted faster, and by the time they returned to the camp, they were almost all exhausted.

By dinnertime, the hail in the sky had turned into snowflakes.

It's snowing again.

Because he pushed himself too hard in the last three kilometers, Li Dongshui hasn't recovered yet, so he put down his chopsticks after only a couple of bites at dinner.

"Why don't you eat?"

"Can't eat it."

"You have to eat, even if you can't!" Guo Yuanshuai glanced at the swirling snowflakes outside the yard. "Tonight is our class's designated sentry duty. If you get hungry while on duty, no one will care!"

quack!

Startled by the news of the guard post, Xu Ge lost his grip and bit off half of the steel fork in his mouth.

Everyone immediately looked over. Niu San, who was standing next to him, reached out and pried open Xu Ge's mouth to take a look: "Damn, you're got a tough mouth! You broke a tooth with a fork and you're perfectly fine?"

Xu Ge chuckled awkwardly and spat out the broken fork: "Maybe this fork is of poor quality; I didn't even use any force!"

At this moment, Li Dongshui's words drew everyone's attention again: "Tonight? Squad leader, with such heavy snow, we still have to go to the border to stand guard?"

"Don't even mention snow, even if it's raining knives, we'll still fight it!"

Guo Yuanshuai spoke in a rare serious tone, "Hurry up and eat, make sure you're all full. When we get back to the platoon, you guys should explain the important points to the two new recruits first!"

"Yes!"

After dinner, due to the snow, each class organized its own activities in the classroom.

Xu Ge got a lot of snacks from Lao Wang today. After asking the veterans if he could secretly bring them up, he threw most of a bag to Li Dongshui.

Although this guy managed to force himself to eat most of a bowl of rice at dinner, he'll probably be hungry by then.

"Thanks!" Li Dongshui said without ceremony, and started stuffing things into her bag.

After learning that Xu Ge and Li Dongshui had both been on guard duty during the training camp, the veterans didn't need any special reminders and started their own preparations.

Before turning off the lights, Niu San opened the bottle of wine that Wolf Head had brought over that day and was about to pour it into the kettle when Guo Yuanshuai stopped him.

"Have you forgotten the ban because you haven't been on duty for so long? This is live ammunition duty at the border, do you think this is some kind of training exercise?"

"Shall I fill your water bottle with a drink, squad leader?" Niu Sanxian asked.

Guo Yuanshuai shook his head: "You're just mixing salt with boiled water, it's the same for you. The temperature will drop sharply tonight, so the salt water won't freeze."

"Yes!"

Once everyone was ready, the lights-out whistle was blown.

The duty time for the ninth squad is from 0:00 to 2:00 in the morning. The veterans said that they should get up at 11:30 to prepare. Therefore, Xu Ge did not plan to sleep and took out his phone to start chatting with Lin Wan.

Lin Wan: Are you tired from training lately?

Xu Ge: It's okay, I can adapt.

Lin Wan: I have good news for you! I've been recognized as an outstanding worker!
Xu Ge sent a thumbs-up emoji: Awesome! Congratulations!

Lin Wan: When are you coming to the hospital?

Xu Ge: Let's get through this month. I don't have time for now.

Lin Wan: Why aren't you asleep yet?
Xu Ge: I have to stand guard at 11:30, so I won't sleep.

Lin Wan: Then I'll stay with you until 11:30.

At some point, their conversations stopped relating to Xu Ge's illness and became filled with mundane daily matters. Everyone else, like Xu Ge, was lying in bed playing games on their phones, except for the soft snoring coming from Guo Yuanshuai's bed.

After an unknown amount of time, footsteps sounded in the corridor, and a figure carrying a flashlight pushed open the door and entered: "Squad Leader Guo, it's time to get on duty."

"Ok!"

Guo Yuanshuai sat up, and the others quickly got out of bed, put on their coats and boots.

"Let's go get our guns first!"

The group went up to the second floor, where the armory door was already open. After registering with the duty officer, each person received their own gun and live ammunition magazine.

Guo Yuanshuai went to the adjacent operations duty room and retrieved eight radios, then led everyone downstairs to the barracks entrance.

The snow had stopped, and in the howling wind, a military vehicle sat quietly by the roadside.

After everyone boarded the vehicle, it turned directly behind the barracks and drove west along the cement road.

Xu Ge hunched his neck and looked out of the carriage. All around him was a vast expanse of white, with several towering shadows in the distance.

Based on his impressions during the day, he felt that the car was heading towards the foot of the snow-capped mountains on the border.

About fifteen minutes later, the car stopped at the foot of the mountain, and everyone got out.

There was no road ahead, so we had to walk up the mountain to take over the post.

"Tonight's password is 'Snowflakes Falling Over the Sky'."

After Guo Yuanshuai relayed the order, he began to divide the group into teams. "Xu Ge will follow Niu Sanxian, Li Dongshui will follow Wang Lin, and the rest of you will remain in your usual positions. Let's go!"

"Yes!"

The group split into four groups and headed up the mountain in different directions.

Xu Ge followed behind Niu Sanxian, using a flashlight to climb the mountain path for less than ten minutes, when a little light appeared ahead.

"Stop! What are you doing?" someone shouted.

Niu Sanxian: "Take over!"

"Feixue, report back?"

"Lian Tian!"

A beam of flashlight shone over, and Niu Sanxian led Xu Ge up.

This is a sentry post built halfway up the mountain, facing the border. The sentry on the previous shift was from the eighth squad, a combination of new and veteran soldiers.

After Niu Sanxian inspected the sentry post facilities and signed the document, the two men from the Eighth Squad left, yawning.

"Are you sleepy?" Niu Sanxian asked.

"Not sleepy!" Xu Ge shook his head. "What's our mission here?"

"Guard the gate." Niu San first gestured for Xu Ge to stand inside, patted his tactical vest on his chest, and said, "The first round in the magazine is a blank, the other 29 rounds are live ammunition."

"If you hear or see any unusual noises directly in front of you, you can fire a warning shot at any time, and then you can open fire."

Xu Ge was taken aback: "What if we encounter an official checking the sentry posts?"

“The sentries won’t come from directly in front; that’s where the Heavenly Poison is,” Niu Sanxian said calmly.

"But aren't some cadres supposed to be on lookout duty?" Xu Ge asked, puzzled. "If that's the case, wouldn't they accidentally hurt their own people?"

“That’s a regular sentry post. We’re all carrying live ammunition. If anyone dares to come up from the front, they’re either an idiot or a moron. If we accidentally hit someone like that, it’s fine. We’ll just keep firing.”

"And then what happened after you fired the shot?"

"After that, all you have to do is wait to make a contribution."

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
"This is Border Post No. 113, call sign 03, and the deputy squad leader is the squad leader; his call sign is 006!"

After giving his instructions, Niu San took out his radio and started calling: "006, 03 calling."

Guo Yuanshuai responded quickly: "006 received, 03 please speak."

"03 has completed its shift. Is the signal clear?"

"Received, signal is clear."

Following that, 01, 02, and 04 also gave their reports.

Xu Ge was a little nervous because of what Niu Sanxian had just said. He held his gun and stared intently at the dark valley in front of him.

The sentry post was made of piled stones, and it not only had electricity and air conditioning, but also an oil heater, so it wasn't cold.

Swish!
The walkie-talkie started making noise.

After giving his report, Niu Sanxian started constantly changing radio channels, listening carefully to the static noise of each channel, and occasionally pressing the call button to say "hello" twice.

"What are you doing?" Xu Ge asked, puzzled.

Niu Sanxian continued his work: "I'm looking for my old friend. You don't need to worry about it. Just pay attention to the walkie-talkie on your waist. Remember to answer if the squad leader calls you."

"An old friend? Who is it?"

Niu San smiled mysteriously: "My fans."

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
"Hello?"

"Cuckoo cuckoo?"

Suddenly, when Niu Sanxian switched to a new channel, the walkie-talkie gave an unclear response.

Xu Ge was taken aback: "Holy crap, who is this?"

Niu Sanxian's eyes lit up, and he pressed the call button, his voice deep: "What number are you, Cuckoo?"

"number 1."

"Do you still recognize my voice, bro?"

The person on the other end immediately laughed: "Of course, Little Niu Niu, I've missed you so much!"

"Hahaha!" Niu San laughed loudly. "Then let's begin our midnight radio love songs tonight!"

"Should I call all the others over to support you?"

"Of course, bro! I recently learned a new song called 'The Distant Her'."

"Wow, a Cantonese song! I love it!" came the excited voice from the other end of the walkie-talkie. "The others are already here, Little Cow!"

"Alright, the concert is officially starting!"

Under Xu Ge's shocked gaze, Niu San first opened the kettle, took a sip of water, and began to huff and puff.

Immediately, a magnetic singing voice rang out in the outpost.

"The evening breeze gently carries away the sunset glow, and I've grown accustomed to thinking of her every evening..."

To Xu Ge's astonishment, Niu Sanxian actually sang very well!

"03, 03!"

Xu Ge was listening to music when his walkie-talkie suddenly rang. It was Guo Yuanshuai's voice.

“03 Received!” Xu Ge replied quickly.

"Xu Ge, ask Niu Sanxian if he fucking wants to die!" Guo Yuanshuai cursed into the walkie-talkie. "Even the sentry chief is already here to check the sentry posts. Let him choose his own way to die!"

Niu Sanxian quickly shut up, looked up, and saw a camera pointing directly at him and Xu Ge.

"Holy crap, when did they install surveillance cameras here?!"
