Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 240 Something happened

Two flowers bloom, one on each side.

Chen Guotao led Xiwa through the woods, but even with their eyes wide open and stinging from the stimulation, they found nothing, just like their comrades in the company.

It was as if there was no one else in the woods except for their Blue Army's capture team.

This phenomenon is quite unusual; it can't be that the information from above is wrong.

But that doesn't make sense, didn't they just capture two Red Army special forces soldiers in the woods before?

Could it be that these people really grew wings and flew away?

The Blue Army soldiers, who had gained nothing for a long time, were filled with doubt.

“That’s strange, Xiwa, where do you think they could be hiding?” Chen Guotao asked.

Xiwa can't stand hearing Chen Guotao call him now; whenever his name is called, Xiwa feels like his head is going to explode.

I don't know why, but ever since the company commander made me analyze things outside the woods, I've been asking a lot of questions.

For example, just now, he asked himself a question again.

Please, I'm just a lowly soldier. Shouldn't those be questions for officers like you to consider? Why are you asking me?
Xiwa only dared to complain about Chen Guotao in his heart; he didn't have the guts to say it to his face.

Although they became much closer after participating in the Wolf Fang selection together, how brainless would one have to be to criticize their leader to his face?
He's simple-minded, not stupid!
"Right now, the only place where people can hide is our area, but of course, we can't rule out the outermost armored brigade either."

Chen Guotao's question was no challenge for Xiwa; he answered without hesitation.

Actually, it wasn't that exaggerated; Xiwa had already noticed the problems the Night Tiger was facing.

While he and Chen Guotao were searching, they kept wondering where Chang Ning and Xiao Zhuang had hidden.
As time ticked by, he realized that the Night Tiger Reconnaissance Company soldiers had practically turned the forest upside down, but even so, they still hadn't found anything.

If we eliminate all possibilities, the answer becomes obvious.

Being in the dark under the lamp is not a difficult thing for the Wolf Fang members.

Based on Xiwa's understanding of the Wolf Fang, it's likely that some of her comrades have already been murdered by this time.

Don't forget that there are quite a few of their own people among this group, including members of the Night Tigers.

Old Gun Squad Leader, Xiao Zhuang, and Chang Ning—if you count carefully, three of them are from the Night Tigers alone.

Xiwa didn't know how many people were in Wolf Fang's squad. The only special forces squad he knew of was usually six people, so Night Tiger made up half of them.

This is a special forces team that knows them extremely well. I don't know what the higher-ups were thinking when they sent them to deal with this team.

The fact that they haven't suffered any unexpected setbacks so far can only mean that the other side doesn't intend to fight them to the death.

In Xiwa's mental simulation, if they were to engage this squad in a firefight in the forest, Night Tiger would ultimately win, but the casualties would be considerable.

There was nothing they could do; the enemy knew their Night Tigers reconnaissance company too well, while the Night Tigers didn't know their opponent.

Xiwa's answer immediately struck a chord with Chen Guotao. As someone who had strived to become a special forces soldier since his student days, he was very familiar with the combat methods of special forces.

Kexiwa is different; he only came into contact with these things after joining the army.

In just one year, he had grown from an honest young man to this level. Chen Guotao felt that he had discovered a treasure, a treasure that even Miao Lian had misjudged.

"That's well said. Would you be interested in being my clerk?"

Chen Guotao, who had developed a love for talent, wanted to bring Xiwa under his wing and personally train and hone her skills.

Perhaps because he had been following Miao Lian for too long, Chen Guotao also liked to assign soldiers he favored to clerk positions.

When Xiwa heard that the company commander wanted him to be the clerk, he was extremely embarrassed. If he didn't know what the job entailed, he would have happily agreed to the company commander's request, but now he thought better of it.

The clerk's job is just to serve tea and water to the company commander. He's already been promoted to deputy squad leader in the second squad, so why should he go and do menial work?

"Company commander, clerk work is not suitable for me."

You know, I'm just a rough-around-the-edges guy with only a junior high school education. I definitely wouldn't be good at that kind of document-organizing work. If I make a mistake somewhere, wouldn't that cause delays?

Xiwa's face was full of sincerity. His words contained a hint of shirking responsibility, and of course, he didn't want to delay Chen Pai's work because of himself.

Faced with Xiwa's refusals, Chen Guotao only said one sentence that made him change his mind.

"Do you still want to go to Wolf Fang?"

I remember you told me that you were eliminated because of a quiz test.

Clerical work can be very good at developing one's skills, especially in terms of academic knowledge.

If I can't go to Langya, I can still take advantage of my youth to study at a military academy. With our company's recommendation, it should be much easier.

Of course, if you don't want to serve in the military long-term, then disregard what I said.

As soon as Chen Guotao finished speaking, Xiwa eagerly replied, "I'll do it, I'll take on this clerkship."

Xiwa also has an ambitious heart.

Especially seeing his good comrades-in-arms all having bright futures, how could he be willing to fall behind?

The opportunity is now in front of me; if I don't seize it, I'll definitely regret it later.

"Okay, come and take up your post after the exercise."

Chen Guotao said with a smile that he was growing to like Xiwa, the soldier, more and more.

Chang Ning is talented, quick-witted, and intelligent; the Night Tiger Reconnaissance Company is destined to lose someone like him.

Xiao Zhuang is too proud. He's obsessed with his girlfriend and has very little concept of the military. She's like a time bomb that could explode at any moment, hurting herself and others.

With this comparison, Chen Guotao found Xiwa more and more pleasing to the eye.

Down-to-earth, ambitious, and hardworking in training, he was practically his dream soldier.

As the company commander of the Night Tiger Reconnaissance Company, he believed it was necessary to discover more soldiers like Xiwa to contribute to the company's development.

After confirming Xiwa's job in a few words, Chen Guotao, who had come out of the woods, called the deputy company commander and asked him to gather the entire company together.

Since someone had managed to sneak in under the cover of darkness, he gathered them all together and then went to identify them one by one, face to face.

Chen Guotao refused to believe that even after going to such lengths, the Red Army special forces could still slip through, unless they knew the art of disguise!
After the entire company had assembled, before Chen Guotao could even make a call, a headcount check revealed a problem: two people were missing!
That's pretty cool!

The investigation must confirm who is missing.

Are the Wolf Fang units now working so sloppily, or are they looking down on our Night Tiger Reconnaissance Company?
This is a naked provocation!
"Report: The squad leader of the second squad and one of his soldiers are missing."

Checking the number of people doesn't take much time. Since they're all on the same side, it's easy to determine who's missing by just paying a little attention to the comrades around you.

"Wait a minute, brother, you look a bit unfamiliar to me."

No sooner had he finished speaking than gunshots rang out.

Qiangzi removed his helmet amidst the thick red smoke.
