Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 85 Patrol Team Established
Faced with the vast plains, a person is so insignificant.

Chang Ning walked on the grass, his heart filled with loneliness, and he had to overcome this loneliness.

In the wilderness, the most important thing is the will to survive; survival resources come second.

Even if a person with weak willpower has abundant resources, they will eventually collapse on a mental level.

The loneliness that constantly assaults the Changning spirit like a tidal wave is one of the culprits that erodes the will to survive.

Therefore, Chang Ning must overcome it, which is also one of the skills that special forces members must learn.

Special forces often operate in small teams. Once they penetrate deep behind enemy lines and engage in firefights with the enemy, it is common for them to break out separately.

Surviving, fighting back, and retreating in the complex environment behind enemy lines is far more difficult than surviving in the wilderness.

At this moment, Chang Ning thought of an ostrich. As a professional sniper, its ability to endure loneliness is naturally stronger than that of a half-baked amateur like himself.

How to fight loneliness? Chang Ning's answer is to overthink and stop focusing too much on loneliness.

Perhaps because of his time travel, he has an exceptional memory.

I can even recall the first time I wet the bed, and the times I played house with the little girls in kindergarten.

"What an innocent and carefree time it was."

A warm smile appeared on Chang Ning's face as she recalled some of the ridiculous things she had done as a child, and the loneliness in her heart was replaced by happiness.

If the nature reserve weren't so dangerous, he would have loved to burst into song. He even had a song in mind, one that would be quite fitting for the occasion.

Mental pleasure cannot suppress physical hunger; Changning can hear the sounds of her stomach and intestines moving.

The pitiful man took out the last bit of rabbit leg meat, which was Changning's last remaining food.

He hadn't encountered any edible prey all day. Many of the large wild animals were endangered species, so he didn't dare to hunt them.

After all, this is training, not actual combat, and it's not time to kill protected animals for food.

There's always a way to overcome difficulties. Unable to find prey, Changning had no choice but to make do with wild vegetables on the plains.

Anyway, he only has three and a half days left before he can go back. If it weren't for the need to conserve his strength, Chang Ning could survive for five days without eating, just by drinking water.

However, this mission required the team to not only survive for five days, but also return to the border station within five days, which greatly increased the difficulty of the mission.

Without food, there's no energy to travel, but food isn't easy to find either.

Animals live and grow in the perilous wilderness, so they are naturally extremely alert to any disturbances around them.

Often, before Changning even gets close, they've already run away.

On the wasteland, Changning hasn't encountered a single rabbit, let alone a mouse.

He has now fallen so low as to drink wild vegetable and earthworm porridge, but Chang Ning has maintained a good attitude and keeps hypnotizing himself.

After setting up a fire, Chang Ning took out the wild vegetables he had picked along the way from his backpack, and then took out earthworms from his pocket. After processing them slightly, he threw them all into the kettle along with the wild vegetables and put it on the fire to make soup.

With nothing in it, the taste must be unpalatable.

A muddy smell mixed with an indescribable taste, Chang Ning pinched her nose and drank it down.

He struggled to suppress his nausea and vomiting amidst the dry heaving sounds. Although the taste was disgusting, it could satisfy his hunger and provide protein and vitamins.

After quickly preparing a simple meal to satisfy his hunger, Chang Ning buried the fire and set off on his journey back to the border station.

A patrol team for the reserve has been officially established. This poaching incident has had a serious impact and has attracted the attention of higher authorities.

Therefore, the patrol team's first operation today was led by Deputy Secretary Sonamda.

Moreover, he grew up near the nature reserve and is familiar with the terrain there.

"Our mission today is to patrol the protected area and look for those brazen poaching gangs."

This is Chinese territory. Those who set foot here are not allowed to act recklessly; they will pay the price!

Sonamda deeply hates poaching gangs, and his words reveal his determination to wipe them out completely.

"understand!"

The patrolmen, carrying their weapons, shouted.

The patrol's deputy leader was a fellow villager of Sonamda, named Badorje, a short, stocky man with a dark and rough face.

The only difference between him and others is that he has calluses on the web of his hand, which he didn't get from working.

He is a retired veteran, and the calluses on his hands were caused by shooting practice in the army.

"Captain, shouldn't our team have a name?" Baduojie asked from the middle of the team.

This is not superfluous; every organization needs a proper name.

It is not only a symbol for external communication, but also a tool for uniting people's hearts and minds.

A united team and a disunited team are two different things.

As a veteran, Badoje was well aware of the importance of names to an organization, which is why he made the suggestion to Captain Sonamda.

Sonam looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the speaker was his good brother from the same village, Badorje.

As the deputy secretary, he recommended Badorje not because Badorje was his good brother, but because Badorje had just retired from the army and had real skills.

The newly formed patrol team urgently needed capable people to take charge, so Sonamda asked his good brother to come out of the mountains to help.

His judgment proved correct; he offered helpful advice the patrol members the very first time they met.

Sonamda was a politician, so he certainly knew the importance of names.

"The deputy captain is right, our patrol team does need a name."

Here's what I'm thinking, and I'd like everyone to give me your opinions. I don't need to elaborate on how important yaks are to a family here, and I think our patrol team should be just as important to the reserve as the yaks are to us.

So our name is the Yak Team, what do you think?

Sonamda introduced the name he had been thinking about all night to his team members.

After hearing the name, the team members thought it was acceptable and no one objected.

"Captain, I'd like to ask how our patrol team's wages are calculated?"

coming!

Someone asked the question that everyone is most concerned about.

They joined the patrol team for extra income, and since they were working for the government, they weren't worried about not receiving their wages.

"That's a good question. It's nothing to be ashamed of, after all, it concerns everyone's future life."

Here I solemnly assure you that everyone's salary will be at the same level as that of civil servants, and will be deposited into your accounts on time every month.

Furthermore, the government also sends gifts to everyone during holidays, ensuring that everyone has enough oil, rice, flour, and eggs.

As the deputy secretary, he could certainly make this guarantee, and the establishment of the patrol team was approved by the higher authorities, so Sonamda was not worried about failing to fulfill these guarantees.

Hearing Sonam's assurances, the patrolmen beamed with joy.

The patrol team operates on a shift system, so these team members can also earn extra money by doing odd jobs in their spare time. With more income, their families will have more security.

Therefore, these people cherish their patrol duties and are naturally quick and efficient in their work, without resorting to cheating or deception.

"Captain, when are we going on patrol?"

A team member asked.

At that time, the people were simple and honest, and they would feel guilty if they did nothing after being treated so well.

They can't sit still now; they want to get things done as soon as possible.

As their captain, Sonamda was delighted to see his team members' enthusiasm for patrol work.

"The patrol will begin soon, but I have something to tell you all."

That means the patrol work is very dangerous; you'll be facing vicious poaching gangs.

They also have weapons, so this job will put everyone's lives in danger.

I'm giving you all some time to think it over. If you don't want to join the patrol team, you can leave now.

Don't worry, no one will look down on you because of this.

Life is only once, it's incredibly precious, I urge everyone to think this through carefully.

Sonamda solemnly told the patrol team that he had to explain the dangers of the job beforehand to avoid unnecessary trouble and prevent disputes if something went wrong.

The captain's words silenced everyone. The treatment was indeed very generous, but it was a gamble with one's life.

I saw some people in the queue hesitating and others wavering.

Sonam did not urge anyone; he waited quietly for them to make a decision.

Slowly, some people stepped out of the group, placed their weapons in front of Sonamda, and then left apologetically.

Joining the patrol team was life-threatening, and the team members didn't want to take the risk, but Sonam Dah understood them.

He smiled gently at those who chose to leave, assuring them that their choice was not wrong.

As time passed, most people eventually chose to leave.

Only ten people, including Badojie, remained in the patrol team. These ten people will be the backbone of the yak patrol team in the future.

Captain Sonamda, being the deputy secretary, had other matters to attend to, primarily responsible for the patrol team's logistics.

"I am very grateful to those who chose to stay."

I hereby announce the official formation of the Yak Team today. Now, everyone, follow my vehicle and begin your patrol mission.

"Don't leave after the patrol is over, everyone! It's my treat today, lots of food and drinks!"

Sonamda led the way in his jeep, as he was taking the patrol team to familiarize themselves with the route.

The reserve is very large, and it is unrealistic to patrol it all at once. They have to divide it into areas and then patrol in batches.

There's nothing we can do about it; the work is dangerous, which results in a small number of people participating in the patrol team, making the task heavy.

Roughly estimated, each patrol cycle should be about a month. They have to live in the protected area for a month and carry all their food and lodging supplies with them.

"Badoje, you are a veteran, please take good care of everyone from now on."

"The team members don't have much experience, so I'll leave the first few patrols to you," Sonamda said to his good brother.

The team members are all novices, and it will definitely take a lot of effort to train them at the beginning.

Sonam felt guilty for bringing his good brother into such an important task, but he simply didn't have any suitable replacements, so he had no choice but to shamelessly ask his good brother for help.

"Good brother, what are you saying?"

Besides, I should thank you for providing me with this job opportunity.

Without the patrol team, I don't know what to do next.

Badoje comforted his good brother.

I'd like to shamelessly ask for a recommendation vote and a monthly pass.
