He was so persuasive that he actually practiced extraordinary

Zhang Beixing curled his lip: "My photo doesn't ward off evil spirits, so why hang my photo up?"

Zhang Yingying mumbled something while holding up her phone.

"Who says it can't ward off evil spirits? Ever since I used your face as my wallpaper, my phone hasn't gotten a virus again!"

The screen lit up, displaying the photo of Zhang Beixing that had been secretly taken.

Zhang Beixing glanced at it casually and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Good heavens, your wallpaper is actually a copy of someone else's candid photo?"

"If you want my photos, just say so! I can satisfy you in any pose!"

"Get lost," Zhang Yingying spat irritably. "Don't try to change the subject. You haven't answered my question yet. Are you eyeing other female soldiers?"

Zhang Beixing blinked, then nodded heavily, seemingly lost in thought.

"You know what, there really is one."

what?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yingying's eyes widened suddenly, and her teeth clenched so tightly they made a grinding sound.

"Huh? What's wrong with you?!"

"We've only been apart for a short time, and you're already thinking about other girls. Am I not attractive enough?"

As she spoke, Zhang Yingying looked down at herself, her voice suddenly lowering with a hint of insecurity.

"Hmm...it is a bit flat, but I'm still developing, okay?"

"What?" Zhang Beixing couldn't help but laugh. "You're still hoping for a second growth spurt?"

“If you lack something internally, you can rely on external means,” Zhang Beixing said, striking a pose of righteous indignation. “I can definitely help!”

Zhang Yingying blushed.

"Don't think I don't understand what you're talking about. I've heard all sorts of nonsense during these past few months as an undercover agent!"

A cold glint flashed in Zhang Beixing's eyes.

"Did no one lay a hand on you while you were undercover?"

If any fool dares to plot against you, tell me and I'll deal with him!

Of course, Zhang Beixing didn't say the second half of the sentence, since he was still in solitary confinement and it wouldn't have a good impact.

"Of course not!" Zhang Yingying said fiercely. "Those who dared to touch me have already been crippled by me!"

"Uh……"

Zhang Beixing unconsciously felt a chill in his groin and quickly tried to pull his restless hand back.

Zhang Yingying, completely oblivious, crossed her arms and asked angrily:
"Tell me, which female soldier's information do you want to ask me about?"

Zhang Beixing laughed and said, "Zhang Yingying knows me best. There is someone I would like to ask you about."

Hearing Zhang Beixing say this, Zhang Yingying was immediately displeased.

"No, you're really planning to ask me about other girls?"

"I think you've been reading too many books, and it's made your brain all foggy," Zhang Yingying muttered under her breath. "Don't let your brain get polluted by all that nonsense, okay?"

"Zhang Beixing, don't spend all day secretly scheming about random things."

What does it mean to secretly ponder something unrelated?
Why does that sound so lewd...?

Zhang Beixing raised an eyebrow innocently and sighed helplessly.

"I wanted to ask you about Ye Cunxin's recent situation. How is she now?"

what?
Inquire about Ye Cunxin?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yingying's expression immediately turned unfriendly.

I thought Zhang Beixing was joking, but I didn't expect him to actually be asking about another female soldier!

A murderous aura filled the air. Upon seeing this, Zhang Beixing quickly smiled and waved his hand to explain, "Don't misunderstand."

“Other people’s god-sisters may or may not be god-sisters, but Ye Cunxin and I are definitely not in that kind of relationship.”

“Since she calls me brother, and that incident last time was such a big blow to her, I should at least show some concern for her.”

Hmm, for some reason, it feels like the more you explain, the worse it gets... After listening to Zhang Beixing's explanation, Zhang Yingying gave a faint "hmm".

After a moment of silence, Zhang Yingying suddenly asked, "Zhang Beixing, do you have a younger sister?"

“Yes,” Zhang Beixing nodded casually. “But my parents separated when I was very young. Later, my younger sister went abroad with my mother, and I haven’t seen her for more than ten years.”

"I'm sorry, I don't know," Zhang Yingying said apologetically.

"It's alright, I'll tell you the details when you come to my house later." Zhang Beixing winked and smiled mischievously.

Zhang Yingying hurriedly looked away and coughed lightly.

"Thor invited me to visit the Phoenix Fire Training Base before. I met Ye Cunxin there, but she seemed a bit depressed and her mental state wasn't very good. She missed a lot of training and missions."

"It would be hard for anyone to bear the thought that their own mother was a K2 spy planted in Donghai City for many years."

Zhang Yingying said slowly, "Moreover, she is a special forces member, so she must have been under even more pressure during this period."

After listening, Zhang Beixing nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.

He let out a soft breath and sighed, "Okay, I understand. But it's alright, give her some time, she'll adjust."

Zhang Yingying blinked curiously: "Zhang Beixing, you seem to value her quite a bit."

Zhang Beixing said without reservation, "If there can be a female soldier king, then I believe she will be the first. The hardships she has endured will help her grow into an even more outstanding special forces sniper."

Zhang Yingying said with a grin, "What you said suddenly makes me want to be a special forces soldier too. Speaking of which, Thor invited me to join Fire Phoenix before."

what's the situation?
Thor invites Zhang Yingying to join Fire Phoenix?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Beixing waved his hand decisively without hesitation and said firmly, "No way!"

You bastard Thor! How dare you even try to make a move on Zhang Yingying?
Looks like he hasn't had enough of being beaten up last time!

Zhang Yingying was taken aback: "I just said it casually, why are you so agitated?"

Zhang Beixing pursed his lips speechlessly, saying nothing, but his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

It seems they're already planning a hundred ways to deal with Lei Zhan...

Zhang Yingying said casually, "If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Anyway, I wasn't planning on going in the first place."

"Saying he wanted to discuss it with you was just a way of brushing him off."

Hearing Zhang Yingying say this, Zhang Beixing nodded silently and hummed in agreement.

After saying that, Zhang Yingying looked down at her watch and couldn't help but pout.

"Five minutes are up, Zhang Beixing, I have to go."

Zhang Beixing smiled gently: "Actually, I really wanted to go out and see you off."

Zhang Yingying smiled and said, "You should just stay in your solitary confinement cell."

"Don't worry, I'll be out soon."

"Good luck and I wish you the best of luck."

After saying that, Zhang Yingying turned and left reluctantly.

As Zhang Beixing watched Zhang Yingying's slender figure disappear into the distance, a slight smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.

The iron gate opened, and Zhang Yingying suddenly jogged away.

Immediately afterwards, He Zhijun's voice rang out.

"Classified mission, sentry. Go and rest for a while." The sentry standing guard outside the door snapped to attention.

"Yes! Brigadier."

Tap! Tap!
The sentry strode confidently and turned away nimbly.

He Zhijun stepped into the solitary confinement room with a broad smile.

"Zhang Beixing, there aren't many leaders as open-minded as me. You'd better not cause any more trouble for our Wolf Fang War Zone in the future."

"Yes, yes, you're right," Zhang Beixing said with a helpless expression. "But Number One, at your age, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to be squatting by the wall listening to people talk?"

Upon hearing this, He Zhijun paused, then couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

"Nonsense! I just happened to be back. Do you know what kind of punishment you'd receive for slandering your superiors?"

Zhang Beixing secretly rolled his eyes. With your powerful and swaying footsteps, do you really think I can't tell when you got back?

However, due to the current situation, Zhang Beixing quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, alright, I'll take your word for it. Shouldn't we talk about the matter of redeeming ourselves earlier?"

“Hmm, not bad, that’s why I’m here today.” He Zhijun looked up at Zhang Beixing. “It’s time for the red blood cells to make their move.”

Zhang Beixing couldn't help but complain: "Why not use so many special forces teams instead of red blood cells? What kind of mission is this?"

He Zhijun said decisively, "Because this mission cannot be accomplished without your Red Cell team!"

what?
Is it necessary to use red blood cells?
Zhang Beixing was taken aback upon hearing this. Looking at He Zhijun, who had a serious expression, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly and speculate.

What exactly is this mission? Why are they taking it so seriously?

Given such special treatment, an uninformed person might think that Number One's son was inside a red blood cell.

As he spoke, He Zhijun reached into his pocket and pulled out a printed photo.

The photo was originally blurry, but after being re-analyzed and processed by the technical department, it is now about 70-80% clear.

He Zhijun solemnly handed the photo to Zhang Beixing.

Zhang Beixing took it and looked down, and was taken aback.

Zhang Beixing's pupils contracted slightly, and he couldn't help but blurt out:

"Good heavens! This bastard survived last time, and he actually dares to come back?"

The photo shows a figure moving quickly through the woods, and this person is none other than Scorpion, who narrowly escaped from the Donghai City shooting range last time!
“That’s right, you should recognize him, this is Scorpion.”

"But I hope you can have a clearer understanding of him."

He Zhijun looked at Zhang Beixing and began to carefully introduce Scorpion's life story.

"Scorpion, whose real name is Ruan Wenxiong, is from Saigon City in southern Xinjiang."

"During the Southern Xinjiang Defense War, he was a sniper in the Southern Xinjiang Special Forces. At that time, his rank was second lieutenant, and he was the best special forces soldier in Southern Xinjiang."

"He trained in the Soviet special forces, specializing in sniping. He was an outstanding trainee who went to the Middle East battlefield for practical training and killed countless enemies."

"Because of his cunning and ruthlessness, the Alpha Special Forces members who fought alongside him gave him this nickname—Scorpion!"

Upon hearing this classified information, Zhang Beixing's brows furrowed instantly.

good guy?
Alpha Group?
Zhang Beixing immediately asked in surprise, "Scorpion has even operated with the Alpha Special Forces?"

It's important to know that Alpha Group is recognized as one of the world's strongest special forces units.

Because their faces are always covered in black paint when they are on missions, they are also known as "super black soldiers"!
Compared to the US Navy SEALs, the two are almost on par.

There have always been many different opinions about which is stronger or weaker.

Although the Russians have claimed to the public that Alpha is just a fictional special forces unit created by the media and does not exist in reality.

But this did not dampen the public's enthusiasm for exploring this mysterious special forces unit; on the contrary, it intensified.

Upon hearing about the existence of this team from the No. 1 mouth, Zhang Beixing was convinced.

I never expected that scorpion would be even more troublesome than I anticipated!

He Zhijun's account of Scorpion's past experiences continues...

"After the war ended and relations between the two countries returned to normal, Scorpion took off his military uniform and went to work for the African Strategic Resources Company."

"This strategic resources company, abbreviated as AO, is actually a long-established international mercenary organization that recruits a group of retired special forces soldiers who are willing to risk their lives for money."

“People like Scorpion are simply unable to live a normal life in society after leaving the battlefield. In just three years, he rose from a low-level mercenary to the head of a secret business unit.”

"Over the years, we've dealt with him many times..."

After hearing about Scorpion's secretive resume from the top leader, Zhang Beixing's expression gradually became serious.

He muttered to himself, "It seems that Wolf Fang has conducted a very thorough investigation into Scorpions..."

"We did put in a lot of effort, and some of the intelligence was even beyond our theater's access rights, but we still managed to get it in the end." He Zhijun sighed slowly. "However, I also paid a price for it. I'm afraid my life will end at the rank of major general."

Zhang Beixing frowned slightly: "Why does it have to be this thorough?"

He Zhijun took a deep breath and answered in a solemn tone:

"Because the scorpion's hands are stained with the blood of our wolf fangs!"

He Zhijun's eyes darkened.

"Number Five once had a five-year-old son who died at his hands."

"That's one of the reasons why I'm personally delivering the orders to you on behalf of Lao Fan this time."

what?
Even Number Five's son died at Scorpion's hands!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Beixing narrowed his eyes.

“Besides Lao Fan, he also killed many of our soldiers. He Chenguang from your Red Cell team, his father was also my closest comrade-in-arms.”

"Ten years ago, during the battle for satellites on the southern border, He Chenguang's father, He Weidong, also sacrificed his life on the battlefield to protect his comrades, and the murderer was Scorpion!"

He Zhijun spoke slowly, his eyes slightly closed.

Scenes from ten years ago seem to reappear before my eyes.

On the battlefield of the tropical rainforest in southern Xinjiang, the sun blazes down and the humid heat permeates the grass.

The blood of the Wolf Fang warriors splattered, bullets whistled through the air, taking away many vibrant lives.

"They want to destroy the satellite; we absolutely cannot let them succeed!"

"Tell my wife she doesn't need to wait for me..."

"Sniper! Counterattack!"

"Concentrate your firepower and take him out!"

"Golden Eagle, I'll cover you! I must see him die with my own eyes!"

"Scorpion!" the young Fan Tianlei roared in a heart-wrenching voice, "I'm going to fucking kill you!"

Scorpion hid behind the border marker and used a sniper rifle to continuously carry out cross-border sniping.

To protect a falling satellite, soldiers sacrificed their lives one after another.

Blood flowed across the ground, staining the lush green grass red.

The roars of the soldiers seem to still echo in the ears of the survivors.

Although many years have passed, that cruel memory is forever etched in He Zhijun's mind, refusing to fade away. (End of Chapter)
