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

Chapter 202, Codename: Wet Nurse. A top-tier route!

According to Guo Yuanshuai, in the last exercise, finding the Blue Army command post and eliminating the Blue Army commander directly determined the outcome of the entire exercise.

In that sense, Xu Ge's second-class merit award seems well-deserved.

As for when the order for meritorious service and reward will be issued, Guo Yuanshuai's estimate is about a week.

After all, the brigade commander had already called to inform them, so it was basically a done deal and wouldn't take too long.

The whole regiment is scheduled to hold a training debriefing meeting after the holiday, and it will be announced at the meeting as expected.

Xu Ge felt more at ease and had more confidence to participate in the Sirius selection.

Over the next few days, the three continued to train extra hard at the training ground every day.

Kaiyoumu practices everything, Xu Ge focuses on his 200-meter shooting, and Li Dongshui only practices rapid-fire steel plate targets.

After the holiday, everyone received a notice of a military assembly, scheduled for the evening of three days later.

The meeting agenda was also distributed in advance, mainly covering two aspects: first, a summary of the training and exercises, and second, planning and mobilization for the upcoming summer intensive training.

The training intensity in summer will be even greater than in winter, and some new subjects will gradually be introduced.

Liu Guoping also personally came to Class 9 to inform everyone to prepare to speak on stage, especially Xu Ge and Guo Yuanshuai, the two biggest heroes of the exercise.

The military assembly at the regimental level is much higher than those at the battalion or company level; the brigade commanders are definitely required to attend, so Xu Ge was also asked to prepare a speech.

Xu Ge is currently preparing for the Sirius selection, so he doesn't have time for this. He complained to Guo Yuanshuai.

Without saying a word, Guo Yuanshuai took a pack of cigarettes to the company headquarters and directly handed over the task of writing the speech to the clerk of the Sixth Company.

"Focus on preparing for the battle, you don't need to worry about anything else!" Guo Yuanshuai said casually.

Xu Ge was overjoyed and began to devote himself to training every day.

It was Friday, two days before the regiment's military meeting. Xu Ge and his two companions were running laps on the training field with their guns on their backs.

After the holiday, Guo Yuanshuai went to the military hospital for physiotherapy.

In the past few days, more and more troops have come to the training ground to participate in training. This morning, the firing range was occupied by the Third Battalion, so the three of them simply ran ten kilometers to warm up.

Halfway through the run, Xu Ge heard a slight buzzing sound beside him. He turned around and saw a strange man in military uniform without rank insignia riding an electric motorcycle behind him.

Further on, Li Dongshui had stopped and was slowly walking forward on the track.

Seeing the other person's attire and the electric off-road motorcycle, Xu Ge instantly identified them as a member of the Hidden Wolf gang.

Seeing that Xu Ge had turned around and seen him, the man twisted the accelerator, overtook Xu Ge, stopped the car, and waved to signal Xu Ge to stop.

Xu Ge, panting, ran up to the other person: "What's wrong?"

"Let me introduce you. Codename: Nanny, leader of the second squad of the Hidden Wolf." The man smiled and extended his hand.

Xu Ge stopped, shook hands with the other person, and looked at the person codenamed "Nanny" for a moment.

He looked to be under 30 years old, with a square face, well-developed muscles, a robust physique, and an air of righteousness between his brows.

"Nanny?"

Xu Ge's eyes looked a little strange, but he didn't say anything more.

I won't comment on the code name yet, since that's their freedom. But this person doesn't seem like one of Hidden Wolves at all.
In his understanding, the key to the Hidden Wolf Squad lies in the word "hidden".

Whether it's Thor, Old Face, 619, Clip, or even Old Wang, these people would make people suspect they're impersonating soldiers even if they're wearing military uniforms.

But the guy in front of me looks exactly like the image of a soldier in people's minds, and his positive energy is practically overflowing from every move he makes.

The nanny noticed Xu Ge's gaze and smiled, "Why do I feel like you're a little surprised?"

Xu Ge answered truthfully: "It's quite unexpected. Your appearance practically screams that I'm a soldier."

"Is that so? Then I'll try a different style."

After finishing her sentence, the nanny put a cigarette in her mouth, gave a wicked smile, and looked at Xu Ge, "How are things now?"

Xu Ge: "Now I'm like a fitness coach in Chengdu."

Nanny: ???
"What do you need me for?" Xu Ge asked.

"I'm looking for the two of you."

After Li Dongshui arrived, the nanny pointed to the gate of the training ground and said, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go outside."

After saying that, he rode off on his motorcycle.

. . .

. . .

A few minutes later, Xu Ge and Li Dongshui arrived outside and got into the familiar Land Cruiser Prado.

"What do you want from us?" Xu Ge asked, wiping the sweat from his face with his shirt after getting into the back seat. "Turn the air conditioning up!"

The nanny lowered the air conditioner temperature further and turned around: "I need you two to go on a business trip."

"What official business are you going on?" Li Dongshui asked immediately.

Nanny: "Get close to the target and extract information."

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui looked at each other, and Xu Ge then looked at the nanny: "Do you think we're the kind of people who could be undercover agents?"

"It's not about going undercover; it's about bumping into a group of hikers on the road, getting to know them, and figuring out their next move."

The wet nurse explained, "There will be no danger to your life throughout the entire process."

"How long are you going?"

"About ten days."

"goodbye!"

Xu Ge gestured to Li Dongshui to open the car door, "Let's leave."

The nanny panicked: "Wait, wait! I'm telling you, we might be teammates in the future, you can't be this heartless, can you?"

"You also know that things might change in the future?"

Xu Ge said irritably, "I'll be away on a ten-day business trip, and when I get back, the selection process for Sirius will have already started. Do you know that we're both preparing right now? What kind of teammates are we if we don't pass the selection?"

Li Dongshui: "Exactly!"

The nanny looked at the two of them and said, "One of you has already won the title of Warrior, and the other is the first in the sniper training class. With this as a prerequisite, it doesn't matter if you are at the bottom of the rankings during the selection process. As long as you don't expose your weaknesses during the selection process, you can be admitted."

Xu Ge: "What does it mean to expose weaknesses?"

The nanny explained, "Sirius has a prerequisite for choosing people: they must be bold yet meticulous, have strong mental fortitude, and be flexible in their approach to things. As long as you're not too bad at these aspects, you two will be fine."

Li Dongshui nodded: "Then I happen to meet the requirement of being bold and meticulous!"

Xu Ge was still somewhat confused: "Shouldn't anyone be allowed to make contact with the target? Why were we the ones chosen?"

“You two don’t look very old, which makes it easier for the target to lower their guard and approach you,” the nanny said. “Besides, the other party is from Sichuan and Chongqing, so it would be even easier to get along if you chatted in your hometown dialect.”

"Looking at it this way, there aren't many people who meet the criteria. Besides, you two have both been on missions with our Hidden Wolf team before, so you're practically one of us. We trust you more!"

Xu Ge was puzzled: "If that's the case, why don't you just send Li Dongshui directly? Why did you call me along?"

Nanny: "Aren't you two a regular team? Wouldn't it be better if you acted together?"

"What partner?" Xu Ge was taken aback.

"One sniper and one spotter?" The healer was also a little confused by Xu Ge's expression. "The boss and Thor both said so, isn't that right?"

"Of course not!" Xu Ge shook his head. "I understand. You mainly need someone like Li Dongshui. So just let him go. I'll go back to training!"

The nanny nodded: "Then maybe we made a mistake. That's fine too. You can go back now..."

"No way!" Li Dongshui immediately objected. "If Xu Ge isn't going, I'm not going either!"

Nanny: ...

Xu Ge glared at Li Dongshui: "Why the hell are you dragging me along? I'm busy!"

“I’m not confident if you don’t come with me. We’ll definitely be exposed!” Li Dongshui said matter-of-factly. “Didn’t they just say that with our boldness and carefulness, we’ll definitely pass the selection?”

“You’re so bold and meticulous, how could you be unsure? You can go by yourself, I really don’t want to go.” Xu Ge said, getting out of the car.

Li Dongshui held onto the car door handle: "If you're not going, then I'm not going either."

"Whatever, I won't go if I don't want to."

"Then let's retreat together!" The nanny looked speechless: "Wait, so I've been rambling on for ages? Deputy Squad Leader Guo has already signed the temporary transfer form!"

"So what? Who said I have to go just because the deputy squad leader signed it?" Li Dongshui wasn't buying it and slammed open the car door.

Just as the two were about to get off the bus and leave, the nanny quickly called out, "You can name your terms!"

Bang!
The car door closed, and the two sat down again.

Xu Ge said with a serious expression, "Going on this official business will delay our training time for the selection. If we fail the selection, who will be responsible?"

"Damn, what do you mean? You want Sirius to just accept you guys, right?"

"That's not impossible."

"Impossible... Holy crap, wait a minute!"

Seeing that the two were about to leave again, the nanny had no choice but to give in, "I'll suggest to the boss that we waive your basic treatment, is that alright?"

Li Dongshui quickly and quietly tugged at Xu Ge's trouser leg, thinking that the conditions were already very good!

Xu Ge nodded: "Okay, call Lao Wang now, and if he agrees, we'll agree too."

As Kaiyoumu mentioned before, the selection process for Sirius is divided into two parts over three days. The first day is the assessment of basic skills.

If this item were really waived, not only would Li Dongshui be happy, but Xu Ge would also be happy to redistribute the subsequent system rewards.

The nanny immediately took out her phone and started explaining, and Old Wang immediately agreed.

Actually, for Lao Wang, Xu Ge's condition was not excessive, because the other party had already obtained the title of Warrior, so his basic subjects must not be too bad.

As for Li Dongshui, although his physical strength is slightly weaker, his performance in the exercise shows that he can at least meet the minimum requirements of a commando.

. . .

. . .

Where did Thor go?

After confirming that he would be going on this business trip, Xu Ge looked at the nanny and asked.

Previously, Thor would always come to inform him of anything, but today it was the healer who came instead, which made him a little curious.

"Thor's team has already set off on their overseas reconnaissance mission. I'm in charge of this operation. We'll follow the target to Leh and then meet up with them before returning together," the nanny said.

"Leh?!"

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui were both surprised. "Didn't you say you wanted us to meet a group of hikers? How did we end up in Leh?"

"I will explain the specific details of the operation once we arrive at the base."

The nanny started the car. "I'll take you back to the Sixth Company first, and you can get ready before we set off again."

In less than ten minutes, the off-road vehicle arrived at the entrance of the Sixth Company, and Xu Ge and Li Dongshui got out of the vehicle.

It was a little after 10 a.m., and the nanny said she would come to pick up the person after lunch.

After returning their guns, the two men went to find Company Commander Liu Guoping and reported the situation.

Liu Guoping said that Lao Wang had already called beforehand, giving them a few instructions before telling the two of them to hurry back and prepare.

After returning to the dormitory, Xu Ge first took a shower and did laundry. After he was almost done, he called Guo Yuanshuai.

"Deputy Squad Leader, Old Wang has asked Li Dongshui and me to go on another business trip. This time he said it will take about ten days!"

"I know about this. It's probably related to the operation you two participated in last time. If you can help, then help."

"Oh, squad leader, how are you feeling right now?"

"It's great! The vice president personally treated me, all thanks to Xiao Wan!"

As soon as Guo Yuanshuai finished speaking, Xu Ge heard Lin Wan's voice on the other end of the phone: "Deputy Squad Leader, if you keep being so formal, I'm not coming to see you anymore!"

"Squad leader, is Lin Wan with you too?" Xu Ge asked immediately.

Guo Yuanshuai's voice was teasing: "What, missing someone?"

Xu Ge: ...

"Xiao Wan's not busy today, you'll see her when you get here!" Guo Yuanshuai said with a smile. "Oh, and remember to bring my razor and charger when you two come..."

Xu Ge was somewhat surprised: "Squad leader, you mean we're going to Night City today?"

"What, didn't the Hidden Wolves tell you?"

"No!"

"Just remember to bring it, that's all for now!"

"Yes!"

Snapped!
The phone hangs up.

After lunch, Xu Ge and Li Dongshui rummaged through their suitcases and took out their crumpled casual clothes to change into. They then took the things they had brought for Guo Yuanshuai and went to the front door.

After a short while, the nanny arrived by car.

Aren't you two hot wearing that?

The nanny turned to look at the two who had just gotten into the car, both amused and exasperated. "Who said you were supposed to change into civilian clothes?"

Li Dongshui's clothes were fine, a spring/autumn tracksuit, but Xu Ge's clothes were the same windbreaker and jeans he wore when he first went on a business trip with Thor, which really didn't match the season.

Xu Ge was puzzled by the nanny's reaction: "Didn't you say you were going hiking? Are you going to wear military uniform instead of civilian clothes?"

"Once we arrive in Night City, we will purchase clothing and equipment for everyone. The clothes you are wearing will not be acceptable."

The nanny gave an explanation, then turned around and headed straight for the Hidden Wolf base.

Upon arriving at what appeared to be a logistics center, the nanny did not lead the two to the armory or the combat command room, but instead took them to a study room where a projector was already prepared.

Xu Can was sitting at the table in the first row, waiting for them. There were two pistols and four magazines on the table.

"Come and sign the papers to receive your guns!" Xu Can waved to the two men.

Xu Ge walked over and first looked at the pistol, a USP with no obvious signs of use. After a brief inspection, he signed his name.

The nanny was preparing materials on the computer in front of them. After Xu Ge and Li Dongshui received their guns, they sat down next to Xu Can.

"Xu Can, what are you doing here?" Xu Ge asked.

Xu Can: "This operation is a joint effort by the four of us."

Xu Ge suddenly realized: "Oh, there are four people. I thought it was just the two of us going."

Xu Can laughed: "You two have absolutely no outdoor experience, how could I possibly let you go alone?"

Xu Ge frowned, sensing something amiss in Xu Can's words: "What do you mean? Didn't the nanny say there wouldn't be any danger in this operation?"

“There’s definitely no danger if the nanny and I take you with us!” Xu Can explained.

Li Dongshui's expression turned unnatural: "Then why are we being given guns? And two magazines at that!"

Just in case!

The nanny spoke up, "Alright, let me explain the mission details first. You see, this person is our target for this mission."

Xu Ge looked up at the projection, where a photo appeared. The person in the photo was wearing sunglasses and looked to be in his early thirties.

The blank space next to it displays the target's specific information.

Liu Yang, male, 32 years old, from Sichuan and Chongqing, is currently the president of an outdoor association.

“After we arrested Yusup last time, based on his confession, we started targeting Liu Yang.”

The nanny clicked the mouse, and photos appeared one after another. "These seven people are all Liu Yang's accomplices. They are expected to set off tomorrow or the day after, crossing an ancient road from Hotan to Leh. If successful, they will open up a new drug trafficking route!"

"This person is a key member of the hostile organization, and his position is even higher than Yusup's. Our mission is to gain his trust on the way, get him to invite us to join, and find out the location of their stronghold in Leh."

Xu Ge raised his hand: "Nanny, did you just use the word 'open up'?"

The nanny nodded: "That's right."

Xu Ge's expression was somewhat unpleasant: "Can I understand that this means no one has ever walked that road before?"

"To be precise, no one has ever walked this route before." The nanny laughed heartily. "You two are very lucky; your first hiking trip is on such a prestigious route!"

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
Li Dongshui: ? ? ?
