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

Chapter 86 Are you mute?!
Inside the assembly tent, a row of people sat on stools, waiting for the shooting assessment to end.

The second company is being assessed now; it will probably take about two hours for everyone to finish.

The officers were all away, and the new recruits were quietly discussing their assessment experiences.

Xu Ge's face was ashen, and he remained silent. The violent aura emanating from him was so intense that even Xiao Siquan dared not approach him.

Li Dongshui looked guilty and tried to speak several times, but was stopped by Xu Ge's expression.

Kaiyoumu couldn't stand it anymore and patted Xu Ge on the shoulder: "Don't be angry, Li Dongshui didn't do it on purpose..."

"Deputy squad leader, he did it on purpose!" Xu Ge was so angry that he was breathing heavily.

Kaiyoumu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Dongshui: "Did you do this on purpose?"

Li Dongshui lowered his head and remained silent.

Kaiyoumu was shocked: "Why did you fire an extra shot at Xu Ge's target?"

"I... I saw that Xu Ge really wanted to win first place, but his shooting skills aren't very good, so I thought I'd help him out to be on the safe side."

Li Dongshui whispered, "But who would have thought he would perform exceptionally well this time, hitting the target with all ten shots..."

Kaiyoumu sighed, "So, you meant well but did something wrong?"

"Ok!"

Xu Ge didn't even glance at Li Dongshui: "What I want is to win first place fair and square, I don't need your help! Besides, I only managed ten shots on target, while you only managed nine. I was already better than you!"

"Damn! It's not the scheming of bad guys that's scary, it's the sudden inspiration of a stupid person!"

Xu Ge became increasingly angry as he spoke, "I wasn't even this furious when Qi Ruibiao stole the guiding gas and framed me!"

"Do you think my shooting skills will never improve, and I'll never get a high score? You're the only sharpshooter in the whole battalion, right?"

After being bombarded with criticism by Xu Ge, Li Dongshui's face turned red and white in turns. She wanted to say something several times but held back, pouting and looking like she was about to cry from grievance.

"it's okay no problem!"

Kaiyoumu continued to comfort Xu Ge, "If you can hit the target with ten shots, it means your skill level has improved. I only hit the target with nine shots. With this level of skill, what are you afraid of?"
If you can't get first place this time, then try again next time. Once you're back in the old unit, you can practice target shooting every day if you want!

On the surface, Xu Ge was angry because he lost first place in shooting, but in reality, he was angry because he was sure that he would fail again in this military challenge.

Not only did he lose his reward, but the worst thing was that he couldn't tell a single lie for three days!
But he couldn't confide in anyone about his frustrations, so he had to keep them bottled up by himself, which led to his indiscriminate outburst of venting just now.

Xu Ge realized that what he had said earlier was quite harsh, and with Kaiyoumu's comforting words, he calmed down. Thinking back to Kaiyoumu's earlier words, he asked curiously:

"Squad leader, you just said you hit the target nine times?"

"Yes."

"How many rings did you score?" Xu Ge asked.

Kaiyu's target was at the very back, and he hadn't paid attention when the target was announced earlier.

Kaiyoumu: "86 rings".

Xu Ge was taken aback: "Holy crap, how did you manage that with such strong winds?"

"Adasi, I served in the army for two more years than you guys!"

Kaiyu didn't find his score surprising at all. "I know the winds in the northwest come in gusts. When the wind stops, I just need to fire a few more shots..."

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
It turns out that Kaiyoumu also knew this method; Xu Ge thought he was the only one who knew it.

It seems I underestimated these veterans!
Based on Kaiyumu's overall performance in pistols and rifles, he should be the winner of this shooting competition, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

"Xu Ge, I'm sorry! I really didn't expect it to turn out like this."

Seeing that Xu Ge seemed to have calmed down a lot from chatting with Kaiyoumu, Li Dongshui carefully said an apology.

"嘤嘤嘤"

The little dog also ran over and rubbed against his trouser leg.

"Ugh!"

Xu Ge sighed, patting the little dog, and said self-deprecatingly, "Who told me to perform so exceptionally well today? If I had performed like before, I might have actually won first place..."

. . .

. . .

More than two hours later, the gunfire on the nearby assessment field stopped, and the cadres and key personnel returned to their tents to organize their respective teams.

Du Hu beamed with joy: "The results are in! The class vice-chairman is first, Li Dongshui is second, and it's a bit of a pity that Xu Ge had an accident, but the rankings said they don't blame you. The whole roasted lamb this weekend still counts!"

"yeah!"

The new recruits in the first platoon cheered.

Xu Ge's expression turned grim, not because of the results, but because the token had appeared on its own at this moment.

[If the challenge fails, the penalty will be automatically calculated, and the host cannot choose the next challenge.]

Completing the challenge will reward you with 10 general skill points or 200 general proficiency points; failing the challenge will result in corresponding penalties.

[Generating an E-level military order]

The following content does not require public announcement and is effective immediately.

[The host guarantees to achieve first place in the individual tactics competition in the upcoming battalion-wide assessment. If this is not achieved, the host will not utter a single truth for three days.]

Alright, here comes another challenge.

And the punishment has also changed.

Not telling the truth for three days? It seems like the consequences are less severe than not telling lies at all.

I don't understand this punishment mechanism. Is it randomly assigned by the system?
I glanced at the skill slot on the front of the token: Tactics: LV1 (30/99).

Xu Ge started cursing inwardly. This system was really good at picking projects! His tactical skills were only at LV1.

He felt that ever since he failed his first military challenge, the challenges assigned by the system had become more and more difficult.

Fortunately, Xu Ge had already found out that, apart from shooting and grenades, the other tests would be conducted before he joined the unit, which meant he had another month of training time.

The most important thing right now is not the next challenge, but facing the penalty for failing the shooting challenge!

You can't tell a single lie for three days!
As you can see from the message, the punishment has already begun.

Xu Ge was filled with anxiety and stood in the line without daring to say a word, because he didn't know what the consequences would be if he opened his mouth.

As they headed to the assembly point, each company began shouting their battle cries: "One, two, three, four!"

"One, two, three! Four!"

Xu Ge tried shouting along a few times in the group, but found that nothing strange happened.

Upon arriving at the assembly point, Instructor Huang Jiabo was chatting and laughing with Thor.

As the commander of the troops participating in the rotational training, Huang Jiabo was naturally very grateful to Lei Shen and wanted to invite Lei Shen to give a graduation speech, but Lei Shen politely declined.

Huang Jiabo then stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Comrades, you should know that in the past, each new recruit could only fire 20 bullets at most during shooting training. But this time, our chief instructor has set a precedent and applied for tens of thousands of bullets for everyone!"

"Tell me yourselves, shouldn't you thank the head instructor?"

"Yes!"

Wow!
The recruits clapped enthusiastically, shouting "Thor! Thor! Thor!" repeatedly.

Xu Ge also shouted loudly.

Thor was a little embarrassed by the recruits' enthusiasm, so he waved and stepped forward with a smile, asking, "Did you all enjoy the fight this time?"

"Awesome!" the new recruits shouted in unison.

Suddenly, someone in the group shouted, "I'm not happy!"

The entire arena fell silent instantly, with everyone looking around, eager to know which hero dared to jump in public on this occasion.

. . .

. . .

At this moment, Xu Ge wished he could dig a hole and bury himself alive.

That's right, he was the one who shouted "I'm not happy" just now.

But what he really wanted to shout was "feeling good," but what came out of his mouth was "not feeling good."

Because he shouted two words, it stood out particularly clearly amidst the chorus of voices, and everyone could hear it clearly.

"Damn it! I was careless!" Xu Ge cursed himself in his mind, mainly because the sound of his voice was particularly loud.

Others might not know, but the new recruits around Xu Ge certainly heard that the displeasure he expressed came from him, and some of them immediately looked over.

"Who shouted that? Trying to rebel?" Huang Jiabo and Thor exchanged a smile to ease the awkwardness.

Liu Guoping, the company commander standing at the front of the stage, suddenly turned around and strode up to Xu Ge: "Xu Ge, come here, tell me, what's bothering you?"

brush!
The entire audience's attention was instantly drawn to it.

Xu Ge's face turned bright red, and he lowered his head, not daring to utter a sound.

"I'm asking you a question, what's wrong with you? Huh?" Liu Guoping snapped. "Weren't you shouting quite enthusiastically just now? Speak up!"

Xu Ge remained silent, keeping his mouth tightly shut.

"Damn it! Are you mute? I'm asking you a question!" Liu Guoping took another step forward.

"Xu Ge, the company commander is asking you a question, answer him now!" Du Hu immediately reminded him.

Xu Ge's mind suddenly skipped a beat after hearing Liu Guoping's words: A mute?

Yup!

If I can't lie, then I won't. I'll just be mute for three days!
The next moment, Xu Ge raised his head and opened his mouth: "Aba aba!"

Everyone around: ? ? ?
Even Li Dongshui and Kaiyoumu next to Xu Ge had expressions of disbelief. What was going on with Xu Ge?
Liu Guoping was startled and looked at Xu Ge: "What are you doing? Are you playing me?"

Xu Ge quickly shook his head: "Aba aba!"

"You son of a bitch..."

Liu Guoping was so angry he wanted to hit him. "Are you really going to play dumb with me?"

"Company Commander, what's going on?"

Huang Jiabo and Thor also came over and asked.

"This kid was making sarcastic and nonsensical noises in the team just now, and now he's pretending to be mute with me!" Liu Guoping was furious.

Thor was taken aback and looked at Xu Ge: "What's going on with you?"

Xu Ge knew he absolutely couldn't speak now, or he didn't know what kind of trouble he would cause, so he had no choice but to stick to his act and gestured wildly with his hands: "Aba aba!"

Surrounded by so many people, Xu Ge, already feeling guilty, became even more nervous, and sweat even broke out on his forehead. Coupled with his anxious expression, it made people feel that something was really wrong with him.

Huang Jiabo looked at Xu Ge, his expression turning serious: "Something's not right with him!"

“When a person experiences a huge psychological shock, their language ability can be impaired. I have a teammate who has had similar symptoms!” Thor said, frowning.

Upon hearing this, Huang Jiabo immediately looked at Luo Shan and Du Hu: "What triggered Xu Ge's anger?"

"Report, Xu Ge was determined to win first place in shooting, and his chances were very high, but something unexpected happened this afternoon, and his rifle score was 0," Du Hu quickly reported.

Li Dongshui: ? ? ?

He felt like he was about to be burdened with a huge accusation.

Thor and Huang Jiabo exchanged a glance and nodded slightly: "That's it."

Huang Jiabo turned around and started yelling at Liu Guoping: "Look how scared you've made that kid! He looked like he was going to eat someone alive just now, and now look what happened!"

Liu Guoping opened his mouth, wanting to speak but not daring to retort. He could only look at Xu Ge, only to find that the boy had lowered his head again.

"Thor, what should we do now?" Huang Jiabo was anxious. He couldn't afford to have any problems with the new recruits he was training, so he quickly asked Thor for advice.

"wait for me a while!"

Thor took out his phone, walked aside to make a call, and then came back. "I know a very capable military doctor, a psychologist. She happens to be on duty at the outpost near Thirty Mile Barracks these days."

Huang Jiabo's eyes lit up: "Thirty Mile Barracks isn't far from here, less than two hours by car. Let's hurry and send the person over to take a look!"

Thor nodded: "When you get there, go directly to Dr. Lin Wan and tell him that I referred you."

"it is good!"

Huang Jiabo immediately called Luo Shan over, "Take two men and take Xu Ge there, in my car!"

"Yes!"
