Starting from the deputy company commander of the Soldier Assault Team

Wang Qingrui's face immediately hardened. He didn't mean anything by it; he just wanted to see if he could do them a favor and let the soldiers have breakfast before setting off, or perhaps give them an extra pack of individual rations.

After all, the emperor doesn't lack hungry soldiers, so luring people here and starting right away is just too unfair.

They didn't even give us breakfast; they just issued a single pack of rations and a canteen of water, and then left us in the wilderness for 48 hours. Meanwhile, we had to travel over 100 kilometers while facing pursuit and interception from a reinforced battalion and more than twenty members of the "Old A" special forces.

Is this something a human being could do?

The division's reconnaissance battalion is a heavily reinforced battalion with over 900 personnel, of which more than 800 are combat personnel.

What's more, there's also Old A who died.

Wang Qingrui knew very well what the twenty-odd people of Old A meant; they were the combat power that had single-handedly crushed an entire regiment in several exercises.

Looking at Yuan Lang's ambiguous smile, Wang Qingrui suddenly seemed to see that bastard who always called him "good brother" whenever something happened. Yes, that's right, it was that bastard from the railway.

Although he introduced Zhang Anbang to a very outstanding and beautiful girl from the army commander's family, he was still a bastard in Wang Qingrui's eyes.

Wang Qingrui didn't say anything more, glanced at Yuan Lang indifferently, and turned to leave.

Yuan Lang stood there, watching Wang Qingrui's departing figure, his smiling expression vanishing. He understood Wang Qingrui's feelings perfectly.

But he had no choice. Moreover, this selection process was the first time it had extended to the sergeant level, which was also an experiment for the Old A team. It had to be rigorous. Besides, the selection process was really child's play.

Wang Qingrui, who had just turned around and taken two steps, spotted Zhang Anbang standing to the side with a grin. He sneered, "Are all your bosses this scoundrel?"

"Ah," Zhang Anbang's grin vanished instantly. Why was Uncle Wang coming at me? No, he was talking about my boss, it has nothing to do with me.

He instantly smiled again and followed behind Wang Qingrui, "Hehe, Commander, you're right."

After walking a few steps to Wang Qingrui's car, Zhang Anbang opened the door first and watched Wang Qingrui get in. "Commander, take care."

After saying that, he closed the car door, gave a standard military salute, and watched the Changfeng Cheetah with license plate J78971 speed away.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk," came a few clicking sounds.

Zhang Anbang quickly turned around and saw Gao Cheng pouting. "Hey, Company Commander, what's wrong with your mouth? A cramp or a toothache?"

Gao Cheng snorted coldly, "I don't have a toothache or a cramp. I'm just being sarcastic because I see some people with crooked hearts."

Zhang Anbang understood Gao Cheng's meaning, which was that he felt their Old A group had handled things in a rather unethical way.

He leaned closer to Gao Cheng and said, "Company Commander, you saw the combat power during the exercise. How do you think that thing came about? Besides, it was just an exercise, there's nothing we can do about it."

Gao Cheng kicked Zhang Anbang in annoyance. "Do you think I don't understand? It's just that, it's just that, at least let people have breakfast."

"The mess you made is huge! More than a fifth of the crew are from the old Seventh Company. Those guys from the old Seventh Company have it tough."

"Haha, Company Commander, this isn't like you. You've softened your heart. You weren't like this before," Zhang Anbang joked with a grin.

"Get lost, get lost," Gao Cheng slapped away Zhang Anbang's outstretched hand. He knew everything, but just now he saw the soldiers of the old Seventh Company in the ranks looking at him and Zhang Anbang with shining eyes.

His heart softened instantly.

……

The soldiers participating in the selection marched in neat steps to the open space on the other side. Fan Anzhi, who was in charge, immediately ordered, "Ten minutes to check your equipment. Report any problems immediately. Dismissed."

All participants immediately began checking their equipment. Once the equipment check was completed and everything was confirmed to be in order, they all started looking for acquaintances.

After all, the lieutenant colonel had just suggested that they operate in groups, so it would definitely be best to work with people they knew well, as they could cooperate well with each other and maximize their combat effectiveness.

Gan Xiaoning slumped onto the grass, unable to help but complain, "This is such a rip-off, I came on an empty stomach."

Xiao Wenwu also spoke up, "What are you saying? The notice was for a physical examination, and everyone came on an empty stomach. Who would have thought that the physical examination would turn into a wilderness survival exercise?"

Guo Feng chuckled and replied, "Isn't this also a physical examination? A physical examination given to us by nature. It's pretty good, at least we won't have our skin peeled off by others."

Guo Feng's words instantly brought back unpleasant memories for everyone.

"Get out of here," Wu Liuyi said with a laugh, then turned to Gan Xiaoning and said, "If you're okay with it, then eat it."

"You think I wouldn't dare?" Gan Xiaoning replied directly. Having grown up in the city, he had never gone hungry, but what he feared most was being hungry.

As he spoke, he took out his personal rations and prepared to finish them off, but Xu Sanduo, who was squatting next to him, snatched them away and stuffed them back into Gan Xiaoning's backpack.

As they were talking, a cadet soldier wearing red shoulder patches walked towards them, a dry blade of grass between his teeth, fiddling with the cables connecting his rifle to the simulator on his body. He was none other than Ma Xiaoshuai, the last soldier of the Steel Seventh Company.

After walking a few steps to the group, Ma Xiaoshuai sat cross-legged on the ground, moved his helmet back, and said, "Hey, guys from the Seventh Company, let's do a joint operation."

Wu Liuyi was wrapping his cuffs with a roll of green tape. This was a very useful survival tip, because he was wearing old-fashioned liberation shoes and his shirt and pants were buttoned up, so he couldn't pull them very tight.

Wrapping your clothes with tape is a very effective way to prevent various insects, grass clippings, dirt, sand, and gravel from getting inside.

In the wild, where there is a large temperature difference between day and night, wrapping the sleeves with tape can not only keep you warm and protect you from the wind, but also greatly reduce the possibility of your sleeves getting caught on tree branches or equipment, so as not to delay your tactical movements.

The wilderness is not like a barracks; all sorts of situations can arise, especially during two days of wilderness survival. Using duct tape to tightly wrap yourself up is the most effective physical barrier.

Hearing Ma Xiaoshuai's words, Wu Liuyi smiled and said, "That's right."

Gan Xiaoning echoed this sentiment, saying, "Never abandon, never give up."

As he spoke, everyone burst into laughter.

Laughing, Xu Sanduo turned to Cheng Cai, who was leaning against a tree alone, inspecting his weapons, and invited him, "Cheng Cai, let's work together."

As soon as Xu Sanduo spoke, everyone fell silent and turned to look in Cheng Cai's direction. A former sergeant from the third platoon wanted to speak, but Gan Xiaoning pulled him back.

Cheng Cai really wanted to agree, but looking at the people from the original steel company's seventh company, he didn't know how to start, so he could only smile and remain silent.
