Girls und War

Xia Shu still trusts Yanjie very much.

This high-ranking general in the Flower District is not only very approachable, but also does not have any bad bureaucratic habits.

Xia Shu is happy to associate with such people because they don't calculate relationships between people based on gains and losses.

In contrast, there is the deep guy called dozing.

Although Xia Shu's attitude towards sleeping has improved recently, deep down, she is still wary of it.

It's not that Natsuki doesn't trust fake sleep.

But it was because Jiamei was too calculating. If you weren't careful, you'd be sold out and have to help her count the money.

Now their interests are aligned, so everything is easy to discuss, and Xia Shu can trust Jiamei without any worries.

But if at that time, the interests of the two people conflict, then Jiamei will definitely not sacrifice himself to help Xia Shu.

Just like Xia Shu would not wholeheartedly push her to the top.

This is probably the relationship between these two people.

Looking back at Yanjie now, being with her makes people feel like being bathed in spring breeze.

Like generals lead like soldiers, so it can be imagined that the officers under her command should also be such people.

Therefore, as long as those officers have sufficient trust in Yanjie, Xia Shu believes that he can control the aircraft carrier formation with peace of mind.

This is much better than asking the young commander to borrow people from the Navy Department, only to be given a bunch of good-for-nothings or a group of traitors.

-

Just as the two were chatting happily, there was finally movement on the other side of the field.

I saw the two people in front of the chessboard suddenly play several rounds of fast chess, setting up the formation one round after another.

It seems that he has taken all the situations into consideration after a long period of thinking, and is now exchanging pieces.

Within two or three rounds, most of the main pieces on both sides were killed. Then the chessboard was in ruins, and suddenly the middle game turned into the endgame.

Anyone who knows a little about chess can see that Lan Ke must have gained a great advantage in this round of exchange.

The lieutenant general who was playing against her seemed to have made a mistake in judgment. His face looked very ugly. Xia Shu could see that there was a lot of cold sweat on his forehead.

In comparison, Lan Ke seems to be very easy to play.

But those dead fish eyes looked extremely depressed, which made her whole temperament drop sharply, and even made people feel that she was about to fall asleep at any time.

However, according to Yanjie, Lan Ke was always fully focused when playing chess, calculating almost all the time and never stopping.

The overall situation on the chessboard was just as Yanjie had judged. Lan Ke's chess pieces quickly formed a siege in the endgame.

Afterwards, the enemy pieces were removed one by one, and the ratio of the number of pieces on both sides soon reached a 4:3 advantage victory line after more than a hundred rounds.

Therefore, Yanjie won this game directly and advanced to the next round.

Looking at the lieutenant general in the snow zone at this time, her expression was completely different from the expression at the beginning.

The chess newcomer, who was originally full of confidence, was defeated head-on by the Grand Slam champion in his first official competition.

No matter who replaces him, it will cast a heavy psychological shadow on the game.

At this time, Lan Ke walked over and shook hands with the other party. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be saying:

Little girl, you're still young. Go back and practice for a few more years!

He then left the competition venue and returned to the players' lounge.

Only the young genius was left standing on the field, weeping...

956. Young people should be strangled in the cradle

With the end of this game, Lan Ke stood out from the top 16 and reached the top 8.

After that, she will have to go through the quarter-finals and semi-finals to qualify for the championship.

According to this year's list of contestants, Lan Ke should be a strong candidate to compete for the championship.

However, according to the rules, there is one to two days between each round of competition so that those slow-handed players who take a particularly long time to think in each round can complete their games.

At this time, the organizer must not rush.

Because the participants in the competition are all general-level leaders.

Just a word from them can make the referees pay the price.

Therefore, the rules of the Space War Chess game are relatively casual, and players can do whatever they feel comfortable with.

Although the audience's viewing experience will certainly be reduced as a result, the purpose of space battles is not to be entertaining.

So, who cares?

-

It was already late at night. Xia Shu and Yanjie, who were in the audience, only realized that it was almost closing time after Ran Ke left the arena.

Although the game of Lan Ke ended relatively quickly in the entire competition, many chess games were still not over at this time.

So wait, they might pause the game, rest for the night, and then come back the next morning to continue the game.

As for Xia Shu and Yanjie, when they saw Lan Ke withdraw from the competition, they left the audience seats and went to the players' lounge to greet Lan Ke.

When the two of them went in, Lan Ke was drinking water.

Seeing the two people coming over, she curled her lips and said, "Did you two just peek at my competition on the stage?"

The two laughed at this, and Yanjie said, "How can this be considered peeking? The game is broadcast to the whole world, everyone can watch it, okay? Why would there be any need to peek?"

Lan Ke snorted when he heard that and replied, "Anyway, I don't like people watching my games."

He then muttered that it would be better if the competition could be held in a closed environment so that there would be no interference from the outside world.

Upon hearing this, Xia Shu and the others could only smile bitterly.

But they had no way to refute Lan Ke's words, because he was the general representing the highest military authority on Blue Star.

At this time, another person walked in from the door of the lounge.

The three of them looked up and saw that it was the talented lieutenant general from the snow area.

She walked in at this time, looked at Lan Ke with a dazed look, and then walked out along the corridor wearing her competition uniform without changing her clothes.

Seeing this, Yanjie could only smile bitterly and said to Lan Ke, "Look at you, you've completely destroyed my spirit. This is inappropriate, inappropriate..."

Lan Ke said expressionlessly, "If I don't break her mentality, am I going to let her grow up and challenge my position? Young people should all be strangled in the cradle, without a single one left alive. Yes, strangle them all!"

Hearing this terrifying declaration of war, Natsuki and Kenji were speechless for a moment. They could only look at each other and pretend not to hear.

Afterwards, after Ran Ke changed her clothes, Xia Shu and Yan Jie accompanied her to the restaurant and had dinner tonight.

Because Lan Ke and Yan Jie were both generals, their meals were in the generals' canteen upstairs.

Xia Shu had never been to this place before, but today he had broadened his horizons and gained some knowledge by following the two big guys.

However, although it is a separate general's canteen, the dishes here are not much richer than those downstairs.

The presentation of the dishes was exquisite and it looked like a lot of effort had gone into it. Perhaps it was also intended to elevate the generals' dining experience to a higher level.

After dinner, it was time to say goodbye.

General Lan Ke looked sleepy, as if he didn't even want to talk anymore. He just exchanged a few words with the two of them before heading to his dorm, apparently to sleep.

Xia Shu didn't know how many hours Lan Ke slept a day, so she always had a programmer-like face that looked like she was about to die suddenly.

But Xia Shu still felt that her love for Space War Chess was absolutely from the heart.

As for whether she likes the interstellar battlefield or the game of chess itself - I'm afraid no one knows.

-

Then, Natsuki and Kenjie said goodbye to each other and returned to their dormitories.

Yanjie told Xia Shu that she would contact the commander-in-chief soon to discuss the transfer of the battleship officers.

Sure enough, a few days later, the young commander contacted Xia Shu and told her that the commander of the aircraft carrier didn't have to worry because she had already reached an agreement with Yanjie.

Since that was the case, Xia Shu no longer worried about these trivial matters.

Instead, he put all his energy into the battle zone competition.

At this time, the competition schedule was already halfway through.

In two days, the highly anticipated sniper competition finals will be held.

Xia Shu has not left the house for the past two days, studying the map for this year's finals.

However, before that, the champions of several team competitions were decided first.

Among them, the champions of the doubles group were Bai He and the bartender, members of the special medical team, which was also amazing.

The journey of these two to win the championship is quite dramatic if you look at it in detail.

In this year's doubles competition, it goes without saying that most of the top 32 members are combat members of the special forces.

Hua District Special Forces, a total of four teams entered the finals this year.

Among them, except Baihe and the bartender, the other three team members were rather confusing.

Most of them were from the logistics and communications department, randomly forming teams to get in. So in terms of strength, they were not as professional as other teams.

Bai He and the bartender are both very capable in battlefield rescue.

But when it comes to combat, they are far inferior to the sniper teams or assault teams of other special forces.

So when the two of them participated in the doubles final of 32, they implemented a tactic.

That's just survival.

No matter how you hide or how you survive, you don’t care about kills, airdrops, boxes - none of these things matter.

I was determined to survive to the final round.

Moreover, their battlefield first aid abilities did play an important role in the final round.

During the battle, the two were intercepted by an enemy and suffered gunshot wounds of varying severity.

But after mutual battlefield bandages, the gunshots did not cause serious impact on them.

This resulted in them being the two players in the best condition among all the contestants present in the final round.

So, the final result is very obvious.

Although they are just medical personnel of the special forces, they still have combat capabilities.

Then, with some luck, the two of them eliminated the others naturally and won a significant victory.

957. Microscopic World: Fully Armored

The doubles finals will last for three games in total.

Bai He and Bartender, two members of the medical team, only won first place, which was obviously not enough to support them to win the championship.

However, in the next two games, their ranking was still not low.

Moreover, the first place in the other two games is not the same team.

So they took advantage of their slight advantage in scores and ranked ahead of all the teams.

So in the end, the championship of the doubles competition fell to this medical team.

Such a result was obviously unexpected by most people.

But from a certain perspective, their championship does make some sense.

In the three games, the reason why the two of them were able to obtain high rankings was more than once because they took good care of their injuries and maintained their mental state. So much so that in the end, the two of them were the best-performing team members in the entire game.

This made everyone inside and outside the field start to pay more attention to battlefield medical care.

After all, effective medical care means that the casualty rates of combat and non-combat casualties can be reduced to a minimum.

So everyone started thinking about whether they should offer a special public health course and establish a battlefield rescue team after this year's competition is over.
