The old sergeant in front looked back and sneered.

This is an offshore strait near the Grand Canal, where the cliffs have a drop of more than 200 meters.

Above the surging waves, rugged rocks extend all the way to the top of the cliff.

There was a small boat anchored on the sea. Several officers from the sea area were standing in front of the boat, looking through binoculars at a group of girls participating in the selection who were clinging to the cliff.

They were silent and did not communicate at all.

Because the cruel selection process in the past few days has made them feel too frightened.

After the initial tension and panic, only silent silence remained.

The person who makes the final decision on the selection, Miss Suicune, is standing at the top of the cliff, waiting for the girls to climb to the top.

The rumbling sound of artillery coming from afar seemed to be constantly telling everyone that this was the front line, the most dangerous combat area.

But Suicune wasn't moved at all.

All the selections these days are taking place on the front lines, various front lines.

Navy, Air Force, Army.

There might be gunfire and bullets not far away, and shells could fall on their heads at any time.

But Suicune's decision never changed.

And accidents do happen from time to time.

Just as the girls were approaching the top of the cliff, suddenly, a shell exploded nearby.

The officers felt a tightness in their hearts.

This place is still several kilometers away from the exchange point of fire on the Grand Canal. Judging from the landing point of this artillery shell, it must have been accidentally deflected.

Although it was not directed at them, the officers still felt nervous about their own safety.

As if to confirm their mood, a cry of surprise was heard at this moment.

Screams came from the top of the cliff. A girl seemed to have loosened her hands due to the shock of the explosion, and then fell straight down the cliff.

The scream was heart-wrenching and stopped abruptly after a few seconds.

The sharp rock walls at the bottom of the cliff, carved out by the waves, would not leave their bodies intact under such circumstances.

The officers closed their eyes and dared not look. Then a non-commissioned officer crossed out a girl's name in his notebook.

Since the people on the boat could feel such tremendous pressure, it goes without saying that the girl on the cliff could feel it even more.

After hearing the screams, many girls subconsciously looked over.

Then watch your companions - or competitors - smashed to pieces at the bottom of the cliff.

So naturally, the girls paused on the cliff and did not climb up immediately.

Instead, he checked the tightness of the rock in his hand.

Perhaps their current situation was relatively safe, but after encountering such an accident, fear immediately invaded their nerves and frightened them.

Suicune happened to be standing on the top of the cliff at this moment, looking down, and said expressionlessly, "Is anyone wanting to quit?"

This is the cruelty of Suicune.

Because it is an elimination selection in an imaginary battlefield, you don’t have to care about a person’s life or death.

Because this is not the real world, she can really abuse these girls who are soldiers.

After Suicune asked this question, two girls immediately responded with tears in their eyes, "I quit! I quit!"

Suicune's expression remained unchanged, he just gestured to his two beloved disciples behind him.

So Little Jack and Hawkeye pulled up the safety rope in front of them and slid down the rock wall.

After they approached the two girls who announced their withdrawal, they tied themselves to them with ropes.

Then he activated the take-off and landing device on the rope and easily climbed the girls to the top of the cliff.

Then Suicune asked again, "Anything else?"

No one answered this time.

Elena gritted her teeth, finally suppressed the fear in her heart, and held back the words "I quit".

She looked up at the top of the cliff and happened to see Suicune staring at her, seemingly thinking about something.

In a trance, she seemed to see that face as Xia Shu, who was whispering and mocking at her -

"Give it up—give it up—you can't catch up with me—you'll never catch up with me—"

Is it the thick fog above my head, or the endlessly climbable mountain that lingers in my dreams?

Is that Xia Shu on the top of the mountain, still holding the dagger, laughing and waiting to plunge the tip of the knife into her heart again?

She closed her eyes and bit the tip of her tongue hard.

The smell of blood spread in my mouth, and a sense of clarity mixed with pain dispelled all the hallucinations.

When she opened her eyes again, determination was written on her face.

Without saying anything, she reached out her hand again and grabbed the sharp rock wall above her head.

By the time she finally reached the top of the cliff, the nerves in her hands were numb.

She lowered her head to look at her palms. Because she was not allowed to wear gloves, her fingertips were already a bloody mess.

It's scary.

"What do you want?" the girl's voice came from the side.

Elena turned her head and saw the old sergeant bandaging his finger with gauze, looking at her with a sneer in silence.

Elena didn't answer, or she herself couldn't answer what she was insisting on.

Something round bounced a few times and rolled to her feet.

The old sergeant threw the remaining gauze to her.

She picked up the gauze and said hesitantly, "Thank you...thank you."

The other party didn't say anything, just snorted coldly.

After everyone reached the top of the cliff, Suicune stood in front of them again.

At this point, there are only five people left participating in the sniper selection.

The final winner seems to be about to be revealed.

Who will be the next rising star ace in the sea area?

It's really exciting.

416. Conversation between Lieutenant Generals

The vegetation in the Tuqu Mountains is not very dense, and is mostly evergreen trees. So when viewed from a distance, it always looks bare.

Fortunately, the mountain roads are rugged and the cliffs are steep, so hiding and moving in the mountains and forests is relatively easy.

The Red Dragon Squadron relied on various hidden mountain roads for cover and secretly sneaked into the source of the mountains of the two rivers.

The supply members of the enemy's secret team are easier to find than imagined.

They just waited at the entrance of the mountain stream on the main channel of the two rivers for half the night and found the people who put the supply water floating equipment into the river.

Through the night vision binoculars, it could be seen that they had attached a small package to the underside of some miniature diving equipment. They then used half a hollowed-out piece of wood as a cover and placed it in the middle of the river.

From the distant riverbank, it looked like a small piece of debris floating on the surface, or a crocodile's eye. Combined with the occasional branches and leaves on the river, it really didn't attract enough attention.

While floating downstream, the thing has a certain flexibility and can turn in advance before encountering obstacles, so it will not hit the river bank or rocks.

If supplies are placed in the river channel at this time, the water will flow to the two rivers and be cut off around four or five in the morning.

It seems that the enemy's secret team took advantage of the quietest time to get supplies. No wonder they were not discovered before.

But now that they have found the source of the matter, the situation will be different.

Doragon did not alert the enemy, but followed carefully with the girls of the Red Dragon Squadron.

They wanted to see whether the person who did this was the big troublemaker in Haiqu.

The enemy was also very cautious when retreating. In order to prevent being discovered, they did not let a large group of people go into the mountains.

Instead, a few scattered team members fell far behind.

Xia Shu was extremely cautious and even decided to act alone this time.

And he didn't walk with other members of the group.

Several girls who were best at reconnaissance followed each other's tracks and entered the Tuqu Mountains.

Soon after, the results of the reconnaissance came out.

Several groups checked the reconnaissance information with each other and then gave an expected answer.

——This group of people in the mountains of the earth area do not belong to the sea area.

At the same time, they are definitely not allies of the sea area, because their routes of action have always carefully avoided the main transportation defense routes of the sea area.

I would like to mention here that although the sea area does not pay much attention to the defense in this mountain range, it still does a good job in the most basic strategic control.

They used minimalist defense personnel to ensure the largest possible control area in the mountains, and built a smooth logistical transportation network based on these important defense points—such as mountain pass and cliff tops.

This strategic network relies on several sea military bases near the Inner China Sea, as well as important facilities such as refineries and oil pipelines.

If the enemy launches a large-scale invasion of the mountains, they can respond quickly and deploy a large number of troops from the Inner Sea to the mountains.

However, if there are only a small number of reconnaissance troops, the sea area is too lazy to take care of them.

Therefore, the flower area or this mysterious enemy force can still scurry around in the mountains like rats.

Moreover, these small number of enemy troops are not rootless.

Although they were stationed in the mountains, they seemed to be carrying out smooth logistical transportation towards the Small Inland Sea.

At this point, there is no need to guess anymore.

The only one who dared to conduct a covert operation right under the nose of the Sea District and at the same time stir up tensions between the Flower District and the Iron District could be the full-sea-level domination war zone of the Small Inland Sea.

Snow area.

No other war zone can do this.

As for why the Snow District was clearly still fighting against the Sakura District on the high mountain front at this time, but was also carrying out operations against the two river areas of the large oil fields - that was not something the Red Dragon Squadron could consider.

Their mission is to send this information back to headquarters.

As for the rest, let the meat eaters deal with it.

After completing the communication with the headquarters, Doragon, as requested, conducted further exploration in the northeast direction of the mountains.

The exploration continued to the edge of the mountains, near the coastal area of ​​the small inland sea.

Sure enough, a large supply fleet ready for battle was discovered on the beach.

If it were under normal circumstances, the sea area would not be too surprised to see these fleets on standby.

After all, the Snow District is defending the Small Inland Sea every day. If their fleet leaves one day, the Sea District will be surprised.

But at this time, the composition of the Snow Zone's fleet was not so simple in the eyes of the Red Dragon Squadron.

The number of supply and landing craft was obviously much larger than expected, and various small destroyers were too close to the shore, making it clear that they were ready for landing operations at any time.

No one would believe that the snow zone doesn't want to cause trouble.

The first thing the sea area will do is not let the snow area interfere with the inner sea.

But from another perspective, if the Snow District wants to march into the Two Rivers, the Sea District will definitely not care.

They will even give up this mountain range to facilitate operations in the snow area.

After all, the two regions facing each other across the two rivers are the Iron District and the Flower District.

If a big melee breaks out in these areas, the European troublemakers will definitely have a great time.

So now the pressure is on the flower district.
