Chapter 162(1/2)
Zuo Yiyang came over and looked at them with critical eyes.
Fortunately, their response was not slow this time. Zuo Yiyang did not criticize them again, but just said, "Who told you to sit down?"
"Report, we thought the training was over." Mu Luoqi replied loudly. It makes no sense to refuse to let people sit down when they are tired.
But I didn't dare to say the last sentence, and I really didn't dare to do it at this time.
"It's still early!" Zuo Yiyang pointed to the cliff not far away, "You've seen it all. When you feel you have rested and are able to climb up, you can leave."
After hearing his words, several people looked over subconsciously.
This mountain is not the highest mountain here, but this cliff is extremely special, both high and steep.
Normally, there is no problem in getting up, but now their physical fitness has dropped drastically, and their hands and feet are weak.
Not to mention rock climbing on such a high cliff, even indoor rock climbing is a problem, it is simply crazy.
But thinking about what he said just now, it seems that he did not ask them to climb up immediately, but let them decide the time by themselves.
Several people looked at each other, wanting to see what the other person was thinking.
But they are the first team to arrive here, so it should be okay to rest for a while.
Tang Guang saw that Zuo Yiyang stopped caring about them after he finished speaking, and finally understood that he really let them make their own decisions.
Then he looked directly at the captain of the first team, "What are you going to do?"
The leader of the first team is Xiao Xiaoyi, the squad leader of the third class. After hearing what he said, he immediately said, "Of course it's a rest. Look, our people are so tired. Going rock climbing now is risking their lives. I can't let my people risk their lives."
It’s dangerous to go up.”
Tang Guang didn't think so. Hearing his words, he felt relieved and said, "Anyway, the people behind you haven't come up yet, so don't be in a hurry."
After saying that, he immediately said to the others, "Don't sit down and rest anymore. Let's walk slowly over and rest under the cliff."
As we all know, after running for fifty kilometers, we have really reached our limit. Stopping all at once would place too great a load on our heart.
So he is not being harsh on everyone, but is doing it for their own good.
Mu Luoqi, who was just about to sit down on the ground again, couldn't help but sigh after hearing his words, "This really doesn't leave us a way to survive. It's only fifty kilometers away and it's a cliff."
“I don’t know what else is waiting for us when we climb up!”
"It's not that they don't leave you a way to survive, it's that the enemy doesn't leave us a way to survive." Tang Guang sighed with emotion, "Just think about how we got to this point."
"Today's enemies are becoming more and more cunning and ferocious. If we don't make progress... we are in danger and it doesn't matter, but we are the first line of defense guarding this border."
Mu Luoqi felt a thrill in his heart after hearing this, "I'm sorry... I really didn't think about it that much."
After hearing his words, Tang Guang just waved his hand, "It's nothing, I can't blame you."
"Actually, everyone thinks this way. Our reconnaissance company is doing well, but the people from the Blood Wolf came and messed it up. It looks like a broken family, which makes people feel uncomfortable just thinking about it."
"But the blood wolves are not our enemies, and they are not our enemies. If you regard them as enemies now, you are totally wrong."
"They are here to help you and make you a better scout." Tang Guang said and sighed deeply, "Even if we are eliminated or even disbanded, it is because our skills are inferior to others. No wonder they are."
"Your squad leader is right, you can't always have a negative attitude. If this is really the case, you won't be able to go far." Xiao Xiaoyi also responded.
It can be seen that they, the squad leaders, all understand the meaning behind this rectification.
It's not that Mu Luoqi can't see these things, it's just that... when he thinks about the people in the cooking class and those who didn't make it to the selection team, he can't be rational.
But Tang Guang and Xiao Xiaoyi are obviously much more rational than him, and they think more.
Mu Luoqi sighed softly, "It seems that I still have a lot to learn."
Hearing his words, several people laughed, "If you, a new recruit, are better than us, wouldn't our service as soldiers all these years have been in vain?"
Mu Luoqi came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, but still said half-jokingly, "Squad leader, you are just looking down on me. There are some great recruits!"
"We didn't say you weren't awesome. You could go from the cooking class to the reconnaissance company so quickly, and then break into the selection camp in one go. Who dares to say you aren't awesome?"
"And my performance during the exercise is definitely enough to qualify me to stand here."
Suddenly faced with such praise, Mu Luoqi was not used to it. His face heated up and he hurriedly said, "Squad leader, please don't praise me like this. If you continue to praise me, I will become proud."
While talking, several people walked into the woods and were not far from the cliff.
Entering the jungle, the dense and tall trees instantly blocked the sun, the light also dimmed instantly, and it seemed to become increasingly colder.
Mu Luoqi subconsciously looked around cautiously. There was indeed a very bad feeling here. Maybe it was because he had encountered enemies in the woods these few times, and he became increasingly insecure about this environment.
Only then did he take a vigilant action and realized that he was really frightened. This was neither a battlefield nor a border, so there would be no further danger.
At this time, not only him, but others also didn't think much about it. They felt that this was a training ground and there would be no danger no matter what, so they walked towards the target direction without any stop.
Although the terrain in the woods is complicated, it is still far from the former outpost.
The people in the class did not advance in battle formation. Mu Luoqi walked in the team, walking forward at a steady pace.
But at this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly came from behind.
Looking back suddenly, I saw that a person from the last group had fallen to the ground.
Mu Luoqi was shocked when he saw this. He turned around, squatted down and picked up the sniper rifle to look for the target.
No one expected that they would be attacked here, and no one could guarantee whether this was done intentionally by the Blood Wolf people or whether it was a real enemy.
After all, we are near the border, and dangers may appear at any time.
However, no target was found in the sniper scope, but another scream came out. Mu Luoqi was leaning against the tree, and the sound made his heart sink more and more.
Although he was anxious, he wanted to find their target immediately, but there was not even a shadow in the jungle, so he couldn't fight back.
But he knew that at times like this, he had to stay calm. If he got confused, others would be in more danger.
"Sniper, have you noticed it?" Tang Guang asked in a low voice as several people took cover.
These two snipers were part of his squad, so it was the perfect time for him to take command.
Mu Luoqi glanced at Yao Feng out of habit, and when he saw him shaking his head, he felt even more worried.
He didn't see any enemies, nor was he attacked by surprise, but there was an aura of danger all around him, which made his whole body tense up, and even his breathing felt tense.
But even if the enemy is not found, the two people who have fallen cannot ignore it.
Xiao Xiaoyi took the initiative to stand up and said, "I'll go see them, Tang Guang. If I get hit, you will take command."
Tang Guang hesitated for a moment, but immediately nodded.
He kept his body short and ran quickly to the two of them, lowering his head to check their situation.
Mu Luoqi didn't dare to express his anger, so she stared at him closely.
But at this moment, there was a "whoosh!" sound, and Xiao Xiaoyi fell to the ground holding his neck.
"It's not bullets, it's...a crossbow?" Mu Luoqi wasn't sure what was attacking them, but it must have been silent.
Seeing this situation, my heart suddenly rose, and my hand holding the gun tightened. I looked around carefully and saw that there was no danger for the time being. Then I picked up the sniper rifle and looked forward.
Xiao Xiaoyi was also unconscious in the sniper scope, but now he couldn't tell whether he was dead or alive. The conditions of the other two were not much better than him. Now he really wanted to rush over and save them.
But the current situation was too weird. Not to mention that he didn't react, even Tang Guang was confused by this sudden accident. He opened his mouth and didn't know what order to give.
So looking at the three people so close but unable to save them, their hearts felt like they were being pulled.
There was no trace in the silent forest. If their people hadn't been dumped there, it would have been as if nothing had happened.
And the more this happened, the more fearful they became. If the two of them were attacked by surprise before, they had not made any preparations.
But Xiao Xiaoyi was not only well prepared, everyone knew his abilities, but to be attacked silently like this, and now that there was no trace of the enemy at all, this situation was really strange.
So far, except for the silent weapon that cannot be named, nothing has been discovered.
Facing such a master, all the experience was completely useless. They were all hiding in the woods, and they didn't even have a chance to save their teammates, let alone counterattack.
After a moment of silence, Yao Feng suddenly said, "Squad leader, I'm going to lead people out!"
It was definitely a surprise for him to suddenly stand up. You must know that he is not the most suitable candidate now.
But then he immediately said, "Mu Luoqi and I are partners. Only I know his shooting habits, and only if I lead people out can he have a chance."
This reason was considered very sufficient. Before Tang Guang could agree, he had already thrown down all his equipment except for weapons and walked forward almost with all his might.
"Madman!" Mu Luoqi shouted out when he was in a hurry.
Although what he said was correct, in this case, Mu Luoqi was not sure.
On the other side, Yao Feng had already nimbly jumped out of the bunker, and with a few light movements, he rushed to the side of several wounded people.
Seeing this situation, even if he didn't scream again, Mu Luoqi could only bite the bullet and cover him. At this time, he was really more nervous than before, and every cell in his body seemed to be mobilized.
But no one expected that there would be no sneak attack this time.
Yao Feng ran to the three of them, quickly lay down on the ground, and carefully reached out to check their situation.
After seeing it, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, I just fainted."
But when several people breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, another scream suddenly came from behind Mu Luoqi.
It was actually an attack from another direction.
"No, this is an ambush!" Tang Guang realized something was wrong in an instant, and immediately shouted, "Let's all run away, there's not much we can do!"
