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

Chapter 189 The Spirited Young Girl and the Will-o'-the-Wisp Red Hair?

Before long, the six of them met up with Luo Shan.

Woo!
With a sweeping motion, Luo Shan cleared the area in front of him, then stepped forward with his staff in one hand to protect the six people. Without even turning his head, he asked, "How are you? Is anyone injured?"

"no!"

Not far away, Zhuang Xiaotie and the photographer had also arrived.

On camera, it wasn't just Xu Ge and his six teammates who were bruised and battered; many others on the Blue Team also had similar injuries.

Li Dongshui was extremely excited: "Platoon leader, where are the others?"

"It's behind us, it'll be here soon!"

"Great! Let's capture all these Blue Army soldiers and take them back!"

At the command of the Blue Army lieutenant, everyone immediately staggered and formed a formation opposite the six men.

"A skilled fighter has arrived!"

The lieutenant's face was grim. He glanced at the reporter beside him, then at Luo Shan, and already had the intention to back down.

The lieutenant from the Wolf Brigade just came over and took down seven or eight people in an instant; he's clearly a fighting expert!

"Well done, Wolf Brigade! Let's settle this during the exercise. Retreat!"

At the lieutenant's command, the Blue Army soldiers turned and ran.

"Where do you think you're going..."

Li Dongshui grabbed a stick and prepared to chase after them, but Luo Shan pulled him back.

"What's wrong, platoon leader? We can't let them get away like this!"

"I came here alone, without any reinforcements."

Li Dongshui: ...

Luo Shan turned around and looked at everyone's condition. He found that they all had some minor injuries, except for Xu Ge, who was in a slightly worse state. He felt a little relieved.

"Let's get back in the car first and talk about it then."

"it is good!"

Xu Ge picked up his claw knife, and the simple act of bending over made him wince in pain.

To be fair, as the only one left behind, he got beaten quite a bit with sticks.

As they walked back, the group chatted. Luo Shan used his walkie-talkie to call Tian Xiaohu, briefly explaining the situation and instructing him to notify the 75th Army personnel who were setting up a roadblock ahead to take immediate action and capture as many of the Blue Army soldiers as possible.

"Platoon leader, you were absolutely stunning just now, like a celestial warrior!"

Li Dongshui was overjoyed, brandishing the broken stick in his hand a few times, "Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! They all fell down, what kind of stick technique is this?"

"What stick technique? That's spear technique!" Xu Ge said from the side.

Seeing that Xu Ge looked the worst, Luo Shan reached out and flicked his face, making him gasp in pain.

"Looks like you've been through a lot. I have some medicinal wine when we get back, I'll rub it on you."

"Platoon leader, I took a lot of hits, but they didn't get away with it either. I tore one guy's clothes to shreds, and I punched another guy so hard his helmet was dented..."

Luo Shan interrupted him with a laugh: "Look at those guys, and then look at you, your face is all swollen! Let me ask you, kid, haven't you been practicing combat much since you joined the company? Have you forgotten all the power generation techniques I taught you?"

Xu Ge grinned: "Hehe, I've been pretty busy all the time."

"We can't lose this. Look, we've already lost out!"

"Yes!"

"I will continue to practice for half an hour every night before going to bed."

"Ok!"

"Platoon leader, does my face really look like a pig's head?"

"Can't you look in the mirror yourself?"

Does anyone have a mirror?

"I have."

Zhuang Xiaotie ran up from behind, handed Xu Ge a small mirror, and lowered his head, trying not to laugh.

Xu Ge quickly grabbed a mirror and looked at himself. His left cheek was swollen, his right eye was bruised, and there was a shoe print on his neck.

"Dry!"

"Don't let me run into these people during the exercise; they've already squeezed Danzi'er out!"

. . .

. . .

When everyone returned to the roadside, Guo Yuanshuai's face immediately darkened when he saw that his soldiers had suffered a loss.

Tian Xiaohu pointed at the photographer: "Shut down the camera first!"

The Blue Army scout in the truck bed immediately panicked: "No, let me make this clear, every wrong has its perpetrator, this has nothing to do with me... Ouch! Hiss! Holy crap..."

A few minutes later, the two cars started to drive back.

Tian Xiaohu has already reported to his superiors and conveyed Guo Yuanshuai's analysis results. The 75th Army Special Operations Brigade has decided to send additional troops to conduct a comprehensive and in-depth search within the defense zone.

On the way back, troop carriers were coming from the opposite direction, heading to various suspicious locations.

This incident finally drew the attention of the brigade headquarters.

Tian Xiaohu felt very bad, so he insisted on filling half of the pickup truck carrying Class 9 with local specialties.

After returning to the Second Battalion's barracks, Regiment Commander Fu Qiang personally came to express his concern and condolences to everyone in the Ninth Platoon, and made it clear that he would definitely reward them according to their merits after the exercise!
As soon as Xu Ge returned to the tent, he was immediately pinned down by Guo Yuanshuai and the veterans, while Luo Shan vigorously rubbed his face with medicinal wine.

At first, Xu Ge was puzzled. It was just applying some medicine, not surgery. Why did the squad leader have to pin him down on the bed?

The next second, screams of agony echoed throughout the entire camp.

"Squad leader, platoon leader, is it okay if I don't apply the medicine?"

"Just bear with it, it'll pass, applying the medicine will help it heal faster!"

"Platoon leader, what is this thing?"

"Alcohol."

"This might hurt a bit, you know?"

"It doesn't hurt at all."

"Ow!!!"

Old Wang and Liu Guoping were walking this way when they heard the shouts and asked in surprise, "Guoping, is your cooking squad slaughtering a pig?"

Liu Guoping shook his head: "I guess Xu Ge is applying the medicine."

"What happened to Xu Ge?" Old Wang asked in surprise.

"We were attacked by the Blue Army on Hill 09 today."

"Is it serious?"

"Skin trauma."

"That is not bad!"

The two entered Class 9's tent while talking, and everyone inside looked over.

Guo Yuanshuai, who was sitting on Xu Ge's lap, frowned: "What are you doing here?"

Old Wang didn't say anything, but nudged Liu Guoping.

Liu Guoping said with a smile, "Squad leader, Wolf Head came here to ask you for a favor."

"No help!"

An expected answer.

"Squad leader, this was arranged by the brigade commander," Liu Guoping explained again, "It's something important related to this exercise!"

"whats the matter?"

Guo Yuanshuai patted Xu Ge's butt, indicating that it was over, and Xu Ge then covered his face and turned over with a groan.

Liu Guoping: "That's right, Wolf Head wanted to..."

"Is he mute? Can't he speak for himself?" Guo Yuanshuai said irritably. "He doesn't even know to open his mouth when he's asking for a favor, does he?"

Liu Guoping fell silent.

Old Wang shamelessly stepped forward and offered cigarettes to everyone. Only Luo Shan accepted one. He wasn't embarrassed and said to himself, "Squad leader, I'd like to invite you to Zhugou Town."

"What are you going to Zhugou Town for?" "Aren't you good at arresting people? I want to ask you to help me sort through Zhugou Town."

Guo Yuanshuai looked at Lao Wang: "Isn't Zhugou Town under the jurisdiction of your Eighth Company? You can't even catch a Blue Army scout?"

“We’ve gone through it several times and caught two people, but every night when we check with the monitoring equipment, we can still find the Blue Army’s signal source.”

Old Wang explained, "We have an important operation in Zhugou Town before the exercise. Before that, we have to find that person. The Eighth Company has searched back and forth many times but still has no results. The brigade commander got angry and specifically ordered you, squad leader, to take charge personally!"

Guo Yuanshuai looked at the others in the class: "What do you guys say? Will you help me with this?"

Xu Ge covered his left cheek and mumbled, "Deputy squad leader, since your old squad leader has spoken, shall we go?"

Guo Yuanshuai looked at Lao Wang with a stern face: "If it weren't for my Ge Bao speaking up, I really wouldn't bother cleaning up your mess!"

Old Wang: ...

"Thank you all very much!"

"when to go?"

"The sooner the better."

Guo Yuanshuai patted Xu Ge's butt: "Can you still move?"

Xu Ge: "No problem."

"Alright, let's set off now."

Guo Yuanshuai stood up. "If things go smoothly, I might be able to make it back for dinner."

Old Wang immediately understood: "Squad leader, it's okay if it's late. There are plenty of restaurants in town, it's all on me!"

"Do we have to pass through a buffer zone on the way to Zhugou Town?" Liu Guoping reminded everyone. "It would be best if everyone covered their faces with headscarves."

Everyone immediately began rummaging through their combat kits for headscarves.

Kaiyoumu's headscarf was gone, and he walked over and snatched it from Xu Ge's hand.

Xu Ge: "Then what should I do?"

Kaiyoumu pointed at Xu Ge's face: "You don't need to do that, facial recognition can't recognize it."

Xu Ge: "You fucking..."

. . .

. . .

At 4:30 p.m., the pickup truck carrying the group from Class 9 arrived at Zhugou Town.

The town is quite large, with a bus station and four or five streets.

Xu Ge had only visited this place with his family when he was a child, and it was no longer the same as before.

There were already many military vehicles parked in the town, and you could see Sirius soldiers patrolling from time to time. There were checkpoints at every intersection, and it seemed that the Eighth Company had completely taken control of the area.

The officer in charge of the liaison was the same one Xu Ge had met during the last New Year's Eve operation. Xu Ge now knew that this man was Yang Shaojie, the deputy company commander of the Eighth Company.

Yang Shaojie and Luo Shan seemed to know each other well; they exchanged two punches as soon as they met.

"Squad Leader Guo, we meet again. Wolf Head has already given instructions; we'll follow your arrangements from now on," Yang Shaojie said with a smile.

Guo Yuanshuai looked at the town, which was quite prosperous, and said, "Are you sure there are still Blue Army members hiding inside?"

"Sure!"

"Approximately where is it located?"

"East Street".

"Let's go and take a look first."

Yang Shaojie led the way, and the group passed through the street in the middle of the town and soon arrived at an intersection on the east side.

"We are now almost certain that the person is hiding in the homes of the villagers on both sides of this street."

The group stood at the intersection and looked inside, discovering that most of the houses on both sides of the street were shops in the front and living quarters in the back.

More than 80% of the stores on the street sell clothing and daily necessities.

Guo Yuanshuai asked, "Did you go in and check every single household?"

"No, we're just conducting a drill, not actually catching bad guys. We definitely can't force our way into people's homes."

Yang Shaojie shook his head. "Besides, the locals here are very supportive of the Blue Army and will take the initiative to cover for them. But we have people watching this area 24 hours a day, and we haven't found any suspicious people."

Guo Yuanshuai looked at the newly installed cameras on both sides of the intersection and asked, "You installed these cameras, right? But they didn't catch anything?"

"No."

"That means the Blue Army has been hiding in the villagers' homes all along, and he might have asked the villagers to go out and help him gather intelligence."

Yang Shaojie nodded: "This is also the situation we were most worried about."

"Let's go in and take a look around."

The group began to walk into the street, carefully observing each shop.

When they turned around for the second time, Guo Yuanshuai stopped in front of a supermarket.

"Xu Ge, come inside with me for a look around. The rest of you can wait outside."

"Yes!"

This is the only supermarket on this street. After Xu Ge followed Guo Yuanshuai inside, he found that the supermarket had a fairly complete range of products, from cigarettes and alcohol to grains and oils to daily necessities.

The supermarket wasn't big, less than 100 square meters in total. The cashier was a young girl with dyed yellow hair and tattoos on her neck and arms. The supermarket's speakers were playing pop songs at 0.75x speed.

In short, she's a typical young, spirited woman.

Guo Yuanshuai led Xu Ge around inside for a while, and after they came out, he said to Xu Ge, "Go and talk to them, find out what's going on."

"Oh!"

Xu Ge forced himself to walk to the cashier and, taking advantage of a moment when no one was around, greeted her with a smile, "Hello, beautiful lady!"

The blonde girl looked up at Xu Ge for a couple of seconds, then said with a look of disdain, "No way."

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
He was so angry he almost laughed. He patiently said a few words, but his younger sister rolled her eyes at him.

“The deputy squad leader wouldn’t even talk to me, and I couldn’t get anything out of her.”

Guo Yuanshuai looked at Xu Ge: "Did your face scare him?"

"Li Dongshui, go in and ask again."

"Yes!"

A short while later, Li Dongshui came out cursing.

"Is this woman crazy?! She rolled her eyes at me before I even said anything!"

"Forget it, let's just wait over there."

Guo Yuanshuai was also somewhat helpless. After speaking, he took out his phone and sent a message.

The group stood under a row of trees opposite. Yang Shaojie knew that Guo Yuanshuai wanted to get information from the girl about whether any suspicious people had recently gone in to buy things, so he said:

“Squad Leader Guo, this girl is the supermarket owner’s daughter. She usually works at the cashier. We’ve tried asking her about her before, but she doesn’t seem to like us much.”

"It's alright, I'll find someone she likes to come and ask her." Guo Yuanshuai smiled.

Everyone was curious, wondering who the class monitor was going to call over.

Around 5 o'clock, Xu Ge suddenly heard a piercing sound of music and engine roar coming from the west side of the street.

Turning my head, I saw a young man with red hair and an earring riding a shiny motorcycle.

The motorcycle's speaker was turned up to maximum volume, attracting the attention of everyone on the street.

Red Hair parked the car in front of the supermarket, didn't turn off the engine, and went inside while chewing betel nuts.

A few minutes later, the red-haired boy came out looking smug, followed by the blonde girl.

After the two got on the motorcycle, Red Hair twisted the throttle, and the motorcycle made a 180-degree turn on the spot. The little girl exclaimed and hugged Red Hair tightly.

Buzz!
As the motorcycle drove by, Red Hair spat betel nut residue at everyone's feet and shouted, "A bunch of idiots!"

"Hahaha!"

The little girl behind them laughed loudly and gave the middle finger to everyone.

Everyone was stunned.

Kaiyoumu asked uncertainly, "Was that guy Niu San'er?"
