Yang Junyu broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this. Damn it, why don't you think I'm the one who gets all the good news?
After spending the morning with Zhang Beixing, Yang Junyu had learned his lesson. He pondered for a moment, then instead of speaking directly, he slowly and indirectly gave instructions.

"Well... everything is based on the basic establishment of the combined arms battalion. You guys figure it out yourselves."

Upon hearing this order, the special operations soldiers were stunned.

It took me a while to realize what was happening.

Starting with the formation of combined arms battalions?

So that means they should make an exception for the female soldiers in the communications company?

"Understood, Captain Yang, I'll go pass on the order right away."

"Also, may I ask if the training can be declared over once the number of prey reaches one hundred?"

Before Yang Junyu could speak, Zhang Beixing asked first, "How much time is left until the scheduled end of the training?"

The soldier replied, "Twenty-five minutes left!"

Twenty-five minutes?
In just half an hour, most of them had been arrested. These newbies are really incompetent.

Zhang Beixing chuckled: "Then let's not rush to end this. Let the bullets fly a little longer, let the time run out!"

"Yes!"

In the desolate wilderness, Niu Nuli led a squad of soldiers to cautiously scout ahead.

Army standard-issue boots rustled softly as they stepped over the fallen leaves.

All the soldiers in the squad held their breath in unison and nervously groped their way forward.

Niu Nuli glanced back at Zhang Nengliang, who was following closely behind, and asked in a low voice, "Hey, how long has it been?"

Zhang Nengliang glanced at his watch, looked up and replied softly, "Twenty minutes left."

Yu Dalei frowned, looking quite dejected.

"We're being chased like rats in the street. I don't even know how many people have been eliminated yet, and we haven't even received a notification?"

Niu Nuli chuckled dismissively.

"Why worry about what others do? As long as we can hold on until the very end, there will definitely be no problem."

The crowd sighed repeatedly and discussed the matter endlessly.

"It's only the first day! If it's already this bad, how are we going to get through the rest of the day?"

"Endure? Don't even mention that word. If that Instructor Zhang really pushes you, can you handle it?"

"There's always someone better. Compared to him, the freak Yang Junyu is nothing but a small fry."

Suddenly, Niu Nuli's expression tightened, and he raised his hand to signal for silence.

"Shh!"

"Wh...what's wrong?" Wang Xiaowang asked nervously. "Squad leader, don't scare us like that. My heart is about to jump out of my chest..."

"Beware!"

Before Wang Xiaowang could finish his last word, Niu Nuli interrupted him sharply.

The next instant, more than ten special forces soldiers from the special operations company suddenly sprang out from the tall grass on both sides of the woodland and charged toward them, shouting.

Niu Nuli roared, "Prepare to meet the enemy!"

Two special forces soldiers, dressed in ghillie suits, lunged at the cow.

Niu Nuli swiftly dodged, and with a sweeping leg kick, knocked both of them down.

He drew his knife with lightning speed, and the tactical dagger in his hand deftly "sliced" across the necks of the two men.

"Please follow the rules, you are all defeated!"

The two special forces soldiers who fell to the ground silently tore off their shoulder insignia and sighed helplessly.

A group of soldiers and special forces soldiers got into a melee. Except for Zhang Nengliang, who had experienced war before, and a special forces soldier who fought back and forth, the rest of them were almost all on the defensive and were brutally beaten.

La Qiangdong squatted on the ground, clutching his head and complaining bitterly.

"Something's not right! Why are these people so aggressive today? They weren't like this during previous drills."

Zhang Nengliang kicked the special forces soldier who was beating up La Qiangdong, and scolded him angrily.

"Are you stupid? They've obviously been holding back all along. Otherwise, do you really think a new recruit could beat up a special forces soldier?"

"Get up! There are more of us than they can take them down!"

Niu Nuli, quick-witted and agile, snatched the magazine from the two fallen special forces soldiers, loaded the bullet, and at this moment, the king of soldiers finally showed his prowess.

Niu Nuli moved through the chaotic battle, swiftly and accurately pulling the trigger.

"Bang bang bang!"

Almost every shot was fatal, and the sirens on the special operations soldiers' bodies went off.

According to regulations, they were already considered fallen soldiers, but remembering that they had just been beating the other party and fearing that they would be desecrated without being able to fight back, they hurriedly got up and left.

The soldiers of the first squad cursed and swore, pouring out all sorts of offensive language.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining two special forces soldiers abandoned their guns, drew their knives, and rushed towards Niu Nuli.

Niu Nuli was agile and nimble. He turned his Type 95 rifle around and the butt of the rifle knocked a person away with a "bang".

Another special forces soldier launched a flying kick, but Niu Nuli grabbed his ankle and threw him to the ground.

Zhang Nengliang quickly finished off the last special forces soldier with a shot.

The special forces soldier tore off his shoulder insignia in a huff, looked up at Niu Nuli with a glare, but was completely convinced of his superiority.

"You truly deserve to be called the King of Soldiers of the Ninth Brigade. It would be a shame if someone with your skills didn't become a special forces soldier."

Niu shook his head and chuckled: "I'm just a tank soldier. Special forces isn't for me. If I were to be a special forces soldier, I'd have to be the king of land warfare."

The sycophantic Liang Shan stepped forward with a fawning smile: "The squad leader is indeed the squad leader, he's amazing! He took care of so many special forces soldiers in no time. Following the squad leader, I feel at ease!"

Niu Nuli laughed and scolded, "Stop flattering me, get to work, the special forces company has ammunition in their guns."

Upon hearing the news, the soldiers rushed forward to pick up rifle magazines from the ground and began to fully arm themselves.

Zhang Nengliang had a sudden inspiration and looked up at Niu Nuli.

"Squad leader, running away blindly like this isn't going to work. How about we strip them naked?"

"Take off your clothes?"

Niu pondered for a moment and then suddenly realized.

"You mean disguising ourselves as a special operations company?" Niu Nuli asked thoughtfully. "That's a brilliant plan."

“That’s right. Look at all these people all over the mountains. We can’t possibly recognize them all. We can just blend in.”

Niu nodded: "That's feasible, it's an idea."

But at that moment, the special forces soldier who had been knocked into the air and was pretending to be unconscious suddenly fired a signal flare into the sky.

"Oh!"

Colored smoke grenades exploded in the sky above the woodland.

Niu cried out urgently, "Oh no! It's too late! We've been exposed, retreat now!"

"Huh? Running away again?"

"Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly!"

At Niu Nuli's command, the soldiers continued their desperate escape.

However, just as everyone rushed out, Wang Xiaowang let out a miserable scream.

He accidentally stepped into the trap, and with a "whoosh," a large military camouflage net rose into the air, suspending him precariously from the treetop.

The entire class stopped, at a loss.

Niu hurriedly racked his brains for a solution to help him escape his predicament.

On a distant hillside, Wang Yanbing, holding binoculars, witnessed this scene and chuckled.

"The prey has fallen into the trap."

He Chenguang raised his hand in a tactical hand signal to advance.

"attack!"

The red blood cells quickly appeared and fired the first warning shot.

After all, the opponent was the elite soldier of the Ninth Brigade; it would be too boring to kill him in a sneak attack.

"Bang bang bang bang...!"

Gunfire erupted in an instant.

Niu Nuli, who was in a state of panic, realized he had been tricked when he heard the noise. He reacted quickly and led a squad of soldiers to fight back hastily.

Bullets from both sides whistled through the woods, and many soldiers from the squad were hit.

Wang Xiaowang shouted, "Squad leader, don't worry about me! Run! It's not worth the whole army being wiped out because of me!"

"I don't care about being eliminated. I've been wanting to quit this damn training for a long time. Now I just want to go back to the Ninth Brigade, eat potato chips, and sleep!"

"You guys leave quickly!"

Seeing the dire situation and the imminent encirclement, Niu Nuli had no choice but to grit his teeth and order, "Retreat!"

The soldiers retreated rapidly like a tide.

When all the red blood cells caught up, only Wang Xiaowang, hanging in mid-air, remained at the trap.

Wang Xiaowang snorted arrogantly, speaking in a thick rural accent.

"Hmph! You may defeat my physical body, but you'll never conquer my soul!"

He Chenguang scoffed coldly.

"Rookie, taking it out on your body is enough. Put him down and beat him up!"

The rope was cut, and Wang Xiaowang fell with a loud crash.

He landed heavily on his buttocks, nearly breaking in two, and winced in pain.

"What the hell? Is this training or some kind of death game?"

Without hesitation, the Red Cell team members swarmed forward to perform a traditional welcoming ceremony for Wang Xiaowang.

"Congratulations, you have become our prisoner."

Wang Xiaowang clutched his head and cried out in agony, begging for mercy.

"Oh dear, sirs, please have mercy! My girlfriend is coming to visit next month, please don't embarrass me, okay?"

Wang Yanbing stopped and stared blankly, his brows furrowed.

"Oh my god, what's wrong with my brain? This guy actually has a girlfriend?"

"This is outrageous! How can we let him get away with this? No way!"

"That's right, teach him a lesson! Beat him hard!"

"I have no objection, just fight it out."

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it, because the mere mention of his girlfriend enraged Wang Xiaowang, who was then brutally beaten and screamed in pain.

Wang Xiaowang cried, tears streaming down his face.

"Did I see a ghost? I'll break up with you when I get back, okay?"

Everyone stopped, and He Chenguang gave the order with a cold look in his eyes.

"Don't let the Ninth Brigade's elite soldier escape, after him!"

"Yes!!"

However, they hadn't gone far when Zhang Beixing's voice came through the earphone channel.

"Game time is over! In the past hour, a total of 135 rookies have been caught, and the top 100 have been eliminated. Training is now over!"

"All combat units and candidates, please return to camp immediately!"

Upon hearing the order to cease training, a squad of soldiers who were running wildly through the forest breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

Niu looked back at the pursuing Red Cell Special Forces, a look of relief in his eyes.

He exhaled a heavy breath, utterly exhausted from his escape.

"Finally, we made it through..."

……

The selection and training exercise for the combined arms battalion, led by Chief Instructor Zhang Beixing and Battalion Commander Yang Junyu, has officially commenced.

This selection covers a wide range of branches, including armored, engineering and chemical, mechanized infantry, reconnaissance and communications, and support and logistics.

The training exercises cover individual soldier skills assessments, branch-specific subject evaluations, and multi-branch joint operations.

This is an unprecedented new type of military reform for the 9th Combined Arms Brigade of the Southeast Military Region!
As dusk fell, more than ten military vehicles carrying the candidates bumped and jolted their way back to the training camp.

Whether they advanced successfully or were eliminated, including the female soldiers who were secretly let off the hook, everyone was disheveled and in a sorry state.

All soldiers were ordered to assemble on the parade ground. Several female soldiers from the communications company huddled together, trying to find humor in their predicament and teasing each other.

"Xiaomeng, your nose is covered in mud, you look like a little kitten."

Huang Xiaomeng retorted, "And you're talking about me? Li Mingyue, look at yourself, you're clearly a big tabby cat!"

Li Mingyue said with a mournful expression, "What kind of suffering have we endured? All the handsome guys are scheming scumbags."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Huang Xiaomeng blinked in confusion.

Li Mingyue said indignantly, "It's that Instructor Zhang. He was handsome and dashing this morning, and I thought he was a good person. Who knew he would start messing with us in the blink of an eye?"

As he spoke, he sniffed himself with disgust, then frowned dramatically.

"I feel like I've been messing around all day, and I'm completely worn out!"

Huang Xiaomeng also smelled bad. Her communications class had been hiding in a stinking mud pit for a long time to avoid being captured, so it would be strange if they didn't smell bad.

But she still smiled and comforted me, "Oh, it's nothing. We can just take a nice bath together tonight."

The soldiers in Zhang Nengliang's armored company were all exhausted. They were in even worse shape than the female soldiers, and at this moment they didn't even have the strength to speak.

Chirp-!
A sudden, loud whistle pierced the playground.

The crowd on the playground quickly lined up and looked up to see Zhang Beixing and Yang Junyu walking side by side onto the stage.

Zhang Beixing's cold gaze swept across the entire room, getting straight to the point.

"With lunchtime approaching, I'm sure no one wants to waste time, so let's keep it brief."

"But let me state in advance that I do not wish to see you all unsatisfied, so to welcome you all today, the Synthetic Camp has prepared a special hunter game. Are you satisfied?"

The unspoken message is: if we're not satisfied, we'll continue practicing.

The candidates roared in unison, "Satisfied!!"

Zhang Beixing's lips curled into a wicked smile.

"I'm glad you're satisfied. There will be many more games like this in the future."

The playground was silent; no one dared to speak.

After saying that, Zhang Beixing turned and looked towards the outer edge of the playground.

On the other side of the playground were the first hundred rookies to be arrested.

They were all dejected, and lined up neatly in a small square formation.

Zhang Beixing bluntly informed everyone: "I regret to inform you that, according to the training rules, you have been eliminated."

Many people lowered their heads in resignation, but at this moment, a platoon leader in the queue roared in anger.

"Why!"

Zhang Beixing squinted his eyes, while Yang Junyu beside him looked on with amusement.

The platoon leader declared righteously, "Even though we are a support and logistics unit, not special forces, I, on behalf of the entire platoon, disagree!"

Zhang Beixing asked leisurely, "Alright, then tell me, what's your problem?"

The platoon leader roared, "If we were eliminated like the other squads, I would have nothing to say. But we were surrounded by the special operations company at the drop-off point. It was over before it even started. We are not satisfied!"

He was arrested as soon as he got off the bus?

Tsk tsk, that's really unlucky.

No wonder the platoon leader was dissatisfied; anyone would be unhappy in his place.

Nevertheless, elimination is a foregone conclusion, and Zhang Beixing has no intention of giving him another chance.

Zhang Beixing's voice was sharp and cold as he slowly said, "But you must understand that those who survive on the battlefield are all people with exceptional luck."

"Those who are unlucky may be shot dead before they can even fire a shot, and you are exactly those kinds of people. Do you have to argue with God because you're unlucky?"

Zhang Beixing coldly retorted, "Then you might as well pray to God and buy a lottery ticket!"

The platoon leader was rendered speechless by the rebuttal.

Zhang Beixing surveyed the room: "Does anyone else have any questions or objections?"

The square formation was completely silent.

Zhang Beixing glanced at Yang Junyu, who immediately understood.

"Special Operations Company, send them back to their original units!"

Those who were eliminated silently boarded the vehicles, the military trucks roared to life, and slowly drove away from the field training base amidst the sighs of the remaining soldiers on the parade ground.

The first day of the talent selection concluded with the resounding call to start mealtimes...

The clatter of bowls and chopsticks filled the canteen of the field training base, while the sounds of ravenous eating echoed throughout the space.

If a fellow villager were to pass through this area, they would most likely mistakenly believe that the military had built a new pig farm.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The commotion really did resemble a scene of sows fighting over food.

The daytime training left the selected soldiers exhausted.

At night, everyone ate heartily, and the cooks were exhausted.

As the 101st person to be captured in the game, Wang Xiaowang was fortunate enough not to be eliminated. (End of Chapter)
