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

Chapter 270 Choosing a Deputy Group Leader? I think I can do it too!

“Niu Sanxian is fine. He’s been investigating the Prime Minister’s Office recently because Prime Minister Bhutto has been the target of several assassination attempts.”

The wet nurse explained, "We went there this time to help protect Bhuto."

Xu Ge felt relieved, then looked at the Gatling gun in the nanny's arms: "Sister Qing, you two don't look like you're here to protect someone!"

The nanny laughed and said, "Isn't killing all the enemies the most effective way to protect yourself?"

"Boss, is this the legendary Xu Ge?" someone asked from behind the nanny.

Xu Ge was taken aback: "Legend? Am I that famous?"

The man, carrying a shield, nodded: "Of course, you and White Leg were both on the observation list during your recruit days. There are only two of you in the entire army!"

Xu Ge looked closely at the five people. In addition to the regular weapons, each of them carried different equipment, such as shields, first-aid kits, and some even carried computers. It was clear that they were responsible for different tasks.

"Sister Qing, are these all people from your group? Could you introduce them?"

"Ok!"

The wet nurse counted them one by one from front to back, "This is number two, this is number three, this is number four, this is number five, and the last one carrying the medical kit is number six."

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
"Sister Qing, don't tell me their code names are two, three, four, five, and six?"

"That's for sure! Our guard group doesn't go through all that fancy stuff like the attack group."

The nanny looked at Xu Ge and said, "So, do you want to come work for me? They already have enough people in their attack team!"

"If I come here, will my code name be Number Seven?"

"Yup!"

Xu Ge quickly replied, "I'd love to come..."

"What the hell are you doing?" Thor came over with a dark face. "Damn it, trying to steal my girlfriend right in front of me, huh? Suzaku is already waiting, get the hell out of here!"

The other five members of the guard team greeted Thor with smiles as soon as they saw him arrive, seemingly somewhat wary of him.

But the nanny was too lazy to pay any attention to this guy. She patted Xu Ge on the shoulder and said, "Cousin, think it over carefully. We Hidden Wolves are very democratic. You can apply to whichever group you want to join."

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Xu Ge nodded emphatically.

Thor: You son of a bitch...

After the six women, including the nanny, had walked away, Xu Ge glanced at Thor and curled his lip: "Fancy and flashy!"

Thor was so angry he laughed: "What did you say, kid? Who's spouting nonsense?"

"You guys, everyone insists on having a different code name. I think Sister Qing and the others are fine with it, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, so simple!"

Xu Ge counted on his fingers for a moment, "Including me and Wan Xiaofei, there are a total of 14 people in the two groups of Hidden Wolves, right? I think we should distribute them evenly, seven people per group would be best. I'll go to the guard group..."

Thor interrupted him immediately: "You think I won't break your legs?"

Xu Ge remained silent, secretly planning to settle accounts with this guy when the nanny returned and stood up for him.

"White Legs, take them both back to the dorm, let them take a shower and have a meal. If you're free today, you can go to bed early. Tomorrow is the start of formal training."

Thor walked into the base. "I need to go and report to the boss what Squad Leader Guo said."

"Yes!"

Li Dongshui looked at Xu Ge with a smile, "Goubao, come on, I'll take you to see your den."

Xu Ge gave a forced smile: "Sure, let me see your white legs when you take a shower later!"

"I'll bite you to death!"

. . .

. . .

The dormitory was upstairs from the combat command center. When Li Dongshui brought the two of them in, Ao Xiang and Wu Xiaoyong were playing games in the living room.

This is a four-bedroom apartment with a large space, and each room has two single beds.

Holy crap! You two are so fast!

Ao Xiang and Wu Xiaoyong immediately came up to greet them. Ao Xiang and Xu Ge exchanged a punch, "You're really awesome! It took us almost a month to pass the test last year, but you two did it in just over a week!"

Seeing an acquaintance, Xu Ge was naturally very happy and helped introduce Wan Xiaofei to the two of them.

"By the way, Xu Ge's codename is Goubao, while Wan Xiaofei's is still unconfirmed," Li Dongshui added, never missing an opportunity to deliver a sarcastic remark.

Xu Ge kicked the guy far away, then asked Wu Xiaoyong for his code name.

"A mouse," Wu Xiaoyong said with a smile.

"Damn! That's still better than 'Dog Treasure'!" Xu Ge cursed. "I'm definitely going to join the guard team!"

Ao Xiang laughed: "Why go to the guard group? I've already assigned beds to the two of you."

Xu Ge: Which room do I stay in?

"The innermost room, the one with White Legs." Ao Xiang pointed. "Wan Xiaofei, right? You're in the first room, the one with Team Leader Thor!"

"I've already put your luggage in the lockers. Go take a shower, you guys are practically stale!" Wu Xiaoyong said, covering his nose.

Xu Ge and Wan Xiaofei stopped dawdling and went to find some clean clothes. Luckily, there were two bathrooms in the dormitory, so they took showers.

Li Dongshui took his toiletries to the guard group's dormitory. He had been on the Qiangtang Plateau for a week and couldn't stand it anymore.

Twenty minutes later, Xu Ge and Wan Xiaofei changed into Hidden Wolf's new military uniforms, and the group sat in the living room and began to chat.

"Are you hungry? Why don't we just go to the cafeteria and wait for lunch?" Ao Xiang asked.

Xu Ge picked at his ear with a cotton swab and shook his head: "No need! By the way, where are the clips and 619?"

Ao Xiang: "The two of them went to Stan and won't be back for a while."

Xu Ge instantly recalled what Lao Wang had said earlier and looked at Li Dongshui, asking, "Are you sure the mastermind behind last year's incident was the military of Stan?"

Li Dongshui knew what Xu Ge was asking, and his expression turned serious: "Niu Sanxian has been investigating for almost half a year, and based on the intelligence he has received, he has now narrowed down the scope to the Prime Minister's Office!"

As a member of Class 9, he naturally kept a close eye on this matter.

Xu Ge: "So, Jiazi and 619 also went there because of this?"

“Yes! Once we've identified our targets, we'll definitely all go there to take revenge!” Li Dongshui nodded emphatically. “Wolf Head said it himself!” Ao Xiang and Wu Xiaoyong also straightened up: “We must take revenge!”

Wan Xiaofei learned from their previous conversation that some members of Tianlang and Yinlang had sacrificed their lives in last year's operation. He immediately declared, "Now that I've joined Yinlang, everyone's enemies are my enemies! We must launch a fierce attack to avenge them!"

Xu Ge: ...

"Stop thinking about a full-scale attack just yet, let's decide on your codename first."

Wan Xiaofei exclaimed excitedly, "I already decided while I was taking a shower. Now that Hidden Wolves have come, I'll be called Red Wolf from now on!"

Everyone:? ? ?
"What's wrong? Isn't this codename cool?"

Seeing everyone's strange reaction, Wan Xiaofei asked, puzzled.

Wu Xiaoyong asked somewhat uncertainly, "Isn't the nickname 'Red Wolf' a bit too 'red'?"

Wan Xiaofei laughed: "It's okay, I can change it again. How about 'Mighty Dragon'?"

Ao Xiang laughed: "This one is even more popular!"

Wan Xiaofei: "Then can I call myself Shepherd?"

"Alright, then it'll be a sheepdog!" Xu Ge stood up. "Let's go, guys, let's eat!"

Wan Xiaofei: ? ? ?

"It's not a sheepdog, it's a shepherd!"

Seeing the group heading straight for the door, Wan Xiaofei panicked and called out.

Xu Ge nodded: "Okay, we understand, sheepdog."

Of course he did it on purpose.

This guy used to be so happy when he called me "Dog Baby".

"You've got it wrong, it's not a sheepdog..."

"I'll give you two choices: either call it a sheepdog, or we'll switch!"

Wan Xiaofei: I'm so pissed off!!!
. . .

. . .

Thor was right; there were no further plans after dinner.

Xu Ge and Wan Xiaofei had been wandering around the no-man's-land for a week and were already exhausted, both physically and mentally.

In fact, Xu Ge almost fell asleep while taking a shower. If it weren't for the fact that the food at Yinlang was very good, he would have even wanted to go straight back to his room to sleep.

Therefore, after a hearty meal, the three of them, including Li Dongshui, went to bed early.

Xu Ge slept soundly for days, from six o'clock the previous day until dawn the next day. If he hadn't been woken up by the urge to urinate, he probably could have slept for another two hours.

Li Dongshui was folding blankets when he saw Xu Ge wake up and said, "No need for morning exercises today. Just go to the indoor training ground after breakfast."

Hearing the shouts outside, Xu Ge was somewhat surprised: "I thought there weren't many people on the Hidden Wolves' side. Judging from this noise, there must be a whole company of people doing morning exercises, right?"

Li Dongshui nodded: "Besides the reserve team, there are also logistics and technical personnel, totaling one or two hundred people."

"Where's the sheepdog?"

"He said he wanted to experience the Hidden Wolves' morning exercises, and went out with Mouse and the others."

Xu Ge was speechless. He got out of bed and started getting dressed and tidying up his room: "Damn! This guy has amazing energy!"

After breakfast, Thor led his team of five to the indoor training ground, where Old Wang was already waiting.

"First of all, welcome to our two new team members!"

clap clap clap!
The others applauded enthusiastically.

"Thor!"

"To!"

"Your group is now full. Has the deputy group leader been confirmed?" Old Wang asked, holding a notebook and pen, ready to register.

Thor: "Boss, Clip and 619 are still in Stan."

Old Wang: "You mean the deputy team leader should choose one of them?"

"Yes, they're all veteran players after all," Thor nodded in reply.

"Report!" Xu Ge suddenly called out.

"Speak!" Old Wang's lips curled up.

Xu Ge looked at Thor and then at Old Wang, and asked, "I'd like to ask, what is the role of this deputy team leader?"

Old Wang: "If the team leader is absent or unable to command during the operation, the deputy team leader can take command."

"What are the requirements for military rank for this position?" Xu Ge asked again.

Old Wang shook his head: "We Hidden Wolves don't follow military ranks."

Xu Ge cleared his throat: "If that's the case, why must we choose between Jiazi and 619? I think I can do it too!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the other people's faces became quite interesting.

Wan Xiaofei was full of admiration. He didn't expect Xu Ge to be so brave, asking to be the deputy team leader on his very first day.

As for Li Dongshui and the other two, they were somewhat at a loss for words.

Hidden Wolves doesn't care about rank, but here seniority and ability matter!
What makes you, a newcomer, qualified to be the deputy team leader? You know, the previous deputy team leaders were all highly respected!

Thor glared at Xu Ge: "What the hell are you meddling in? Get the Hidden Wolves' newbie basic training done first!"

Xu Ge ignored him and looked directly at Old Wang: "Is there another requirement?"

Old Wang laughed: "No."

Thor said irritably, "Boss, stop stirring things up. Dogbao hasn't participated in many actual combat operations. If there's a real operation and I'm not there in time, do you really trust him to command?"

"I am indeed worried," Old Wang said with a smile, looking at Xu Ge. "What do you think?"
