Chapter 230 Contradictions
"Hey~"

That was the shriek of a cannonball cutting through the air.

Upon hearing this voice, Chang Ning's face turned green.

It was indeed Lei Keming's trap, but in the original story, the cannonball didn't explode!
You can't believe the story!

"Fire! Take cover!" someone shouted, the voice sounding like that of a veteran.

At this point, with them clearly exposed to the Blues' watchful eyes, the volume of their voices was no longer important.

The loud explosions continued, and even though they were using training rounds, being bombarded all the time was still unpleasant.

The shockwave from the exploding shell caused Chang Ning to feel dizzy and lightheaded.

Just one volley of fire nearly brought Lone Wolf to his knees.

Thankfully it was just a drill, otherwise it wouldn't have been as simple as a single salvo.

"Ugh~"

Chang Ning lay on the ground for a long time, unable to recover. She dry heaved for a while before feeling much better.

Chang Ning was relieved after taking off his helmet and seeing that the identification device on it had not been triggered.

He lay helplessly on the ground, feeling incredibly fortunate.

They weren't eliminated even after a round of artillery fire; their luck is off the charts.

Thinking of the others, Chang Ning's heart sank.

I don't know how my teammates are doing, but I hope we don't have to eliminate too many people.

In this situation, Chang Ning doesn't expect anyone to be eliminated.

In someone's carefully laid trap, it would be a disservice to the Blue Team's preparations not to pay a price.

"Is anyone injured?" Chang Ning asked over the radio.

His response was a long silence on the radio.

This made Chang Ning extremely anxious.

Surely they won't all be wiped out.

Cough cough cough~

"These are Siberian wolves. I'm fine."

As if a switch had been flipped, the radio gradually began to buzz after Xiao Zhuang spoke.

"The bald-tailed wolf sprained its ankle."

"The mountain wolf is alright."

"The wolf is doing just fine."

……

As Chang Ning listened, she realized something was wrong.

Why didn't Geng Jihui and the ostrich make a sound?
"Timberwolf? Big-tailed wolf?"
How are you two doing?

Chang Ning looked anxious.

He was afraid that the two of them would be unlucky and get eliminated.

But unforeseen events can happen, especially with such dense firepower.

It's good that Group B only eliminated two people.

"I am Big Tail Wolf, and the Timber Wolf is with me."

We've been eliminated!

Chang Ning didn't know what expressions Ostrich and Geng Jihui had, but from Ostrich's dejected tone, he could tell that the two of them were definitely not in a good mood.

What should we do now?
The team's sniper and commander were taken out by the Blue Team's firepower, which was terrible for Team B.

The only thing we can do now is to get to Xiao Geng first, since the radio is still with him.

Chang Ning rushed to Geng Jihui's side but ignored him. "Dead men" can't talk, and the exercise rules still need to be followed.

Moreover, asking would be pointless; Chang Ning could tell from Geng Jihui's current state that he was also undecided.

After all, there was very little usable information.

"The rest of the men moved toward the Timberwolves."

After giving the next action orders over the radio, Chang Ning quickly contacted Group A via radio.

He hoped that Team A wouldn't be wiped out, otherwise this trip would be a loss. In the original storyline, Team B hadn't suffered any losses at this point, but now they've lost two people, and they were in relatively important positions.

Outside the encirclement, at the Night Tigers reconnaissance company headquarters.

"We received orders from our superiors that we need to enter the forest after the shelling ends to capture the Wolf Fang members."

After putting down his headphones, Chen Guotao relayed the orders to several platoon leaders, squad leaders, and a newly appointed deputy company commander.

Chen Guotao is now the company commander of the Night Tigers.

With Miao Lian's recommendation and Chen Guotao's own outstanding qualities, it was only natural that he would take over as the company commander of the Night Tigers.

"Every day we're either capturing prisoners or cleaning up the aftermath. We're a reconnaissance company!"

The deputy company commander was a military academy graduate who was very reluctant to go to handle the aftermath again.

So he muttered complaints under his breath.

They are a reconnaissance company, and as such, they should do what a reconnaissance company is supposed to do.

Why do they always do such trivial "little things"? This is completely contrary to his expectations.

"Yo~"

The junior company commander seemed resentful. This wasn't school; you weren't given orders to follow. Why all the complaining?

The second squad leader said in a sarcastic tone.

Because of Chang Ning's intervention, Chen Guotao did not retire but instead took over as the company commander of the Night Tigers.

However, the deputy company commander was still the same military academy student from the original storyline. The lower-level officers and soldiers generally didn't pay much attention to such parachuted-in military academy students.

The second squad leader was a seasoned veteran who liked to bully new recruits, and he would take every opportunity to harass the newly appointed deputy company commander.

Without a doubt, the second squad leader seized the opportunity again.

Xiwa is now a sergeant and serves as the deputy squad leader in the second squad.

Seeing that his squad leader was bullying someone, especially in front of the company commander, he quietly tugged at the squad leader's sleeve from behind, signaling him to be careful.

"Squad leader of Class Two, are you asking for a beating?!"

While the others gave face to the veteran squad leader of the second squad, Chen Guotao didn't tolerate his bad habits at all and reprimanded him in front of everyone.

"Hehe, how could I, the company commander, dare to do that?"

The class monitor of Class Two, who had just been scolded by Chen Guotao, said with a grin.

"Your second squad will lead the arrest operation tonight!"

Chen Guotao had a dark face and looked furious.

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"

Upon receiving the order, the squad leader of the second squad, along with Xiwa and several other soldiers from the second squad, charged into the encirclement of the Blue Army.

"Don't take it to heart. The second brother is a bit slick, but he's not a bad person."

Moreover, his military skills are among the best in the entire company. You'll see what kind of person he is once you get to know him better.

After assigning the task, when no one else was around, Chen Guotao rolled up the map to comfort the deputy company commander.

The reprimand I gave to the second squad leader was to protect that guy. After all, the deputy company commander is a superior, so how could he be so sarcastic?

Isn't this blatantly offending someone? Does he even want to stay in the company after this?

"Actually, I know in my heart why the second squad leader is targeting me."

Miao Liangang left just as I arrived, and he was feeling uneasy and uncomfortable.

Thinking about it now, I'm actually quite glad I wasn't the company commander, otherwise he would have targeted me to death.

As he spoke, the deputy company commander chuckled a few times.

Chen Guotao, who was standing next to him, seemed to be amused as well and laughed along with him.

However, a closer look at his eyes reveals that there is no hint of a smile in Chen Guotao's eyes, but rather a trace of worry.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the deputy company commander is chatting and laughing with him now, and doesn't seem to care about being teased by the second squad leader. Chen Guotao knows in his heart that the deputy company commander is just putting up with it.

The team was difficult to manage, and there were conflicts between the deputy company commander and the rank-and-file soldiers.

A team riddled with internal conflicts is bound to suffer from poor combat effectiveness.

"Miao Lian, you certainly left in a carefree manner."

Only Chen Guotao himself knows the bitterness in his heart.
