He was so persuasive that he actually practiced extraordinary

The blank cartridges used in the exercise are not toys; they are small but complete. The full-form blank cartridges used in this exercise not only have a cartridge case but also contain a small amount of gunpowder. If they hit a soft part of the human body at close range, they can be fatal.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many deaths during the annual exercises.

Zhang Beixing wasn't thinking about any of that at the moment. Instead, he used the time before the wolves attacked to scan his surroundings with his superhuman eyesight.

Know yourself and the enemy, a hundred battles will never end.

But the clearer the investigation became, the more alarmed he became.

The wolf pack size far exceeded expectations!

Unlike what he remembered, the number of wolves he encountered this time was far more than the twenty or thirty in the movie. Zhang Beixing glanced around and found that the number of wolves had doubled to a full sixty-three!

Special forces soldiers are all trained in professional combat skills. Even without firearms, they can escape safely from a pack of wolves, at most suffering minor injuries.

However, quantitative changes often lead to qualitative changes.

Even a group of ants can kill an elephant, let alone a pack of wolves, a pack of starving wolves!

At the same time, Long Xiaoyun also saw this dangerous situation in the satellite video.

"Sister Yun, Deputy Captain Shao and his men have encountered a pack of wolves!"

"I saw it." A crack finally appeared on Long Xiaoyun's perpetually icy face.

Long Xiaoyun's pupils contracted slightly. "Contact the nearest helicopter."

"Report: The Red Army has control over helicopter deployment, and our forces are currently engaged in combat with them."

"Immediately contact Red Force Brigade Commander Shi Qingsong via public channel and have him arrange for troops to go to the rescue!"

After giving the order, Long Xiaoyun added another sentence with unease.

"be quick!"

As they watched the countless wolves slowly approaching the five men on the big screen, everyone in the command room held their breath, a cold sweat trickling down their spines.

"Yes."

Establish communication!

Message sent...

Red Team Commander:
Our soldiers have suddenly encountered a pack of wolves and are requesting backup!
Personnel list: Zhang Beixing, Shao Bing, Shi Yuzhu, Zhuang Xiaolong, Yu Fei.

—The Blue Team.

Sent successfully!
The Red team's reaction speed was also quite fast, and they formulated a response plan as soon as they received the information.

"The combat readiness helicopter has taken off and is expected to arrive at the battlefield in thirty minutes."

Brigade Commander Shi grabbed the communicator: "Li Zhijun! Li Zhijun! Immediately reinforce the Wolf Warrior Squadron, they're in big trouble."

"Roger that!"

After hanging up the phone, Shi Qingsong looked at the list of people and frowned slightly.

Shi Qingsong turned to the chief of staff beside him and whispered, "It seems we guessed right. That elite soldier from the Southeast Military Region has indeed gotten involved with Long Xiaoyun."

The chief of staff nodded: "The fact that our entire command could be wiped out is Zhang Beixing's doing."

"He's a good soldier. I hope they'll be safe..."

Both of them let out a soft sigh.

However, at this moment, Zhang Beixing and his four companions were already in a precarious situation.

In the darkness of the mountain valley, a wolf king, larger and stronger than any ordinary hungry wolf, appeared.

Under the bright moon, the wolf king suddenly raised his head and howled.

This roar was like a battle horn, and the hungry wolves that were poised to pounce instantly charged from all directions!

——Ouch! !
A low, shrill roar, terrifying and chilling, hurtled straight toward the soldiers' faces!

A silent fear and tension permeated the darkness before dawn.
The special forces soldiers gripped their rifles tightly, their brows furrowed, ready for a life-or-death struggle at any moment.

Zhang Beixing raised his eyelids, looked into the distance, and fixed his gaze on the huge, imposing black shadow in the mountain valley.

However, before his gaze could linger for even a moment, suddenly, in the next instant, the wolf king raised its neck and howled angrily at the bright moon.

A fierce roar instantly echoed across the wilderness.

"coming!"

Zhuang Xiaolong shouted loudly, as if trying to embolden himself.

Zhang Beixing's eyes narrowed slightly as several dark figures rushed towards him like a tidal wave!

In the blink of an eye, it swallowed up the dark shadow of the wolf king that stood proudly in the mountain valley.

Countless wolves, like ghostly lightning in the night, converged and pounced from all directions.

The low, guttural roars, like heavy hammers, pounded on people's hearts like a sudden storm.

"Prepare for battle!" Shao Bing shouted suddenly.

At his command, the wolf packs that came from all directions rushed forward.

The team members raised their guns, aimed at the pack of wolves charging at them, and immediately pulled the triggers, unleashing a torrent of bullets without mercy.

——Bang bang bang bang!
rattttttt...!
Bullets rubbed against the muzzle, creating a series of explosions, and brilliant flashes of light danced in the darkness.

The wolf, struck by a bullet, howled and fled to the side, but in the next instant, even more wolf shadows pounced on it fearlessly.

Once the magazine was empty, there was no time to change it.

"Go on the bayonet!"

The team members moved in unison, adjusting their rifles to close-combat mode, the sharp bayonets on the muzzles flashing a cold, menacing light in the darkness.

Swish!
Shao Bing raised his gun and swung it, the bayonet easily slicing through the wolf's fur, directly disemboweling the wolf that charged at him, blood splattering everywhere.

Within seconds, the wolf pack pounced on them, and the two sides were forced into a hand-to-hand combat.

Shi Sanba and Zhuang Xiaolong roared as they fought against several dark figures.

Under the command of the wolf king's muffled howls, three to five hungry wolves surrounded a man, and the battle was fierce and intense.

Yu Fei fumbled for the bag on his side, as if trying to pull out some treasure, but inadvertently created an opening, and a vicious wolf pounced on him.

Zhang Beixing, with his keen eyes and sharp ears, caught sight of this scene and instantly moved to stand in front of Yu Fei.

puff!
A flying kick struck the wolf squarely in the waist.

"Waaaaah!"

The wolf spun several times in mid-air, tumbling and scrambling as it flew out. After falling to the ground, it struggled to get up again, but after a few struggles, it became completely silent and died.

Seemingly sensing danger emanating from Zhang Beixing, more and more wolves began to circle around him, waiting for their chance to strike.

A wolf lurked behind Zhang Beixing, ready to pounce from any angle and bite his shoulder!
"Ow!"

Zhang Beixing turned around in a flash, and with lightning speed, he reached out and grabbed the wolf's throat tightly. With a crack, the wolf's throat bones shattered.

After killing another wolf, Zhang Beixing released his grip and casually tossed the wolf carcass onto the ground.

At this moment, Yu Fei finally pulled out his "secret weapon" from his bag.

He hurriedly switched on a military signal flare, aimed it at the direction a wolf was pouncing, and fired it with a whoosh.

The signal flare exploded with a crackling sound, leaving a trail of flame, and suddenly burst open in the night, instantly killing a wolf.

Zhang Beixing unconsciously licked his lips as he smelled the bloody stench in the air.

Seemingly feeling that he hadn't killed enough, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and immediately darted out like a ghost.

Turning defense into offense! Zhang Beixing charged into the wolf pack in an instant, aiming at the vital points of these hungry wolves and striking them fiercely with various sharp techniques.

A chorus of screams and wails echoed across the field.

The other three also fought fiercely, each using their bayonets to knock down the wolves surrounding them.

The five regrouped, back to back, wary of the wolves' next attack.

This fierce battle only resulted in the killing of fewer than twenty wolves, and the crisis was far from over.

The hungry wolves that lingered around, hesitant to approach, had bloodshot eyes, as if their ferocity had also been aroused.

Zhang Beixing said in a low voice, "This can't go on. As long as the Wolf King is alive, these bastards won't back down."

Yu Fei, panting, said, "But that guy is too far away from us; we can't get past him at all. My signal flare can't reach that far, and even if it did, it wouldn't be very effective."

"I'll go!" Shao Bing volunteered.

Zhang Beixing raised his hand to interrupt Shao Bing's attempt to rush forward, and said without giving an inch:
"I don't need you. You guys cover me and don't let these wolf cubs interfere with me."

"That wolf king is cunning. We only have one chance; we must shoot it dead!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Beixing reached into his backpack and took out a longbow. Then, as if by magic, he pulled out an arrow from somewhere.

Shi Sanba stared wide-eyed, and even in such a dangerous situation, he didn't forget to shout:
"Holy crap! How did you manage to fit a bow in your bag?"

Shao Bing was also taken aback: "You're planning to shoot it with a bow?"

Yu Fei frowned: "Can you hit it from that far away?"

"That's incredible! Our lives depend on Lieutenant Colonel Zhang's arrow." Zhuang Xiaolong's eyes scanned the surroundings warily.

The group started talking all at once, but Zhang Beixing smiled slightly, signaling them to relax.

"Don't worry, this is my specialty. Your team must have confidence in my shooting skills."

Archery?

There's something strangely ambiguous about this...

However, at such a critical moment, none of them had time for jokes; their lives were of utmost importance.

On a distant mountain ravine, a faint light flickered in the darkness.

The moment Zhang Beixing took out his bow and arrow, the one-eyed wolf king seemed to sense danger, letting out a low growl and appearing somewhat uneasy.

"Awoo!!"

The wolf king roared, and the hungry wolves, who had been waiting for their chance, howled and pounced again.

Yu Fei, Shi Sanba, Zhuang Xiaolong, and Shao Bing each took their positions and roared as they engaged in a fierce battle with the charging wolves.

Despite being covered in wounds, the four men did not retreat an inch, protecting Zhang Beixing, who was drawing his bow and nocking an arrow, in the center so that he could safely shoot that arrow that would save him from certain death!
Zhang Beixing took a light breath, the cold white mist swirling in the darkness before dawn.

He flicked the arrow feathers with his fingers, gently placed them on the bowstring, paused slightly, then pulled his arm down hard, drawing the longbow taut like a full moon.

Zhang Beixing's pupils narrowed slightly, and a few glints of light flashed in his eyes.

Then, in the next instant, almost without pause, it was done in one smooth, flowing motion.

Whoosh!
A sharp, piercing whistle instantly echoed across the vast wilderness.

A lightning-fast arrow pierced the night in an instant!
The bowstring twanged, and an arrow shot through the air!

With a piercing howl, the arrow pierced through the one-eyed wolf king's other eye and exited straight through the back of its skull.

With splattered blood, the arrow pierced the grass, its fletching still trembling.

This arrow is clearly incredibly powerful!

Beyond the imagination of ordinary people!

The one-eyed wolf king remained motionless, his body stiff. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, and the wolf king collapsed with a loud thud, dying instantly.

Without their alpha wolf, the wolf pack quickly descended into chaos.

The wolves howled and howled in despair. The hungry wolves no longer wanted to fight and fled frantically in all directions with their tails between their legs.

Zhang Beixing glanced coldly at the direction where the wolf king had fallen, his brows furrowing slightly.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Zhang Beixing lightly touched the ground with his toes and transformed into a black shadow, leaping straight up the mountain valley.

"I...I was saved."

Zhuang Xiaolong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling utterly exhausted, and inexplicably turned to look at the eastern sky.

A touch of dawn quietly illuminated half the sky.

Bathed in the morning sun, Zhang Beixing, who had somehow slipped out of the group, stood on a distant mountain gully, his silhouette resembling a sturdy pine tree, holding a bow.

It captivates the heart at first sight.

The four members of the Wolf Warriors huddled together, exhausted and tense, and slowly squatted down on the ground, letting out sighs of relief one after another.

Yu Fei sat on the ground, looking around at the wolf carcasses scattered everywhere, and couldn't help but mutter to himself:
"Captain Zhang killed about half of the wolves on this ground by himself, right? You could say we were saved."

Shi Sanba took out a first-aid kit from his bag, lifted his camouflage uniform, and applied medicine to his arm that had been bitten by a wolf.

"A narrow escape from death is sure to bring good fortune... Ouch! That bastard bit me really hard!"

Zhuang Xiaolong kicked away a wolf that had fallen to his feet and spat.

"Say no more. From now on, my life belongs to Lieutenant Colonel Zhang. As long as I don't break the rules, I'll do whatever I want."

Shao Bing silently gazed at the solitary, towering figure on the mountain ravine, his expression shifting before finally settling into a deep stillness.

He muttered to himself in a very low voice:

"A great reputation is well-deserved. Red blood cells... what kind of team are they really?"

Although Zhang Beixing's heroic figure, "Looking northwest, shooting the heavenly wolf," was impressive, the others were too exhausted from fighting to witness it firsthand.

But for some reason, that figure was deeply imprinted in their minds, giving them a strange sense of awe.

Even a proud soldier like Shao Bing was deeply impressed by the astonishing combat prowess Zhang Beixing displayed in a short time.

However, what he didn't know was that this was just the tip of the iceberg of Zhang Beixing's true strength.

At this moment, Zhang Beixing, standing on the mountain gully, was looking down with great interest at the one-eyed wolf king that had fallen to the ground after being shot by an arrow.

"Hey, these wolf fangs are sharp enough. Perfect to take back as a souvenir."

Muttering to himself, "No time like the present," Zhang Beixing immediately squatted down.

With one hand, he pried open the wolf king's jaw, and with the other hand, he gripped its pair of sharp fangs.

With a slight exertion of the fingertips, a soft "snap!" was heard, and the two wolf fangs were broken off intact.

There was no time to clean it up properly. Zhang Beixing casually wiped the bloodstains on the grass and threw it into the dimensional space.

Wolf fangs paired with wolf fangs are a perfect match, truly ingenious.

After receiving the souvenir, Zhang Beixing stood up, clapped his hands with satisfaction, and turned to walk down the hillside.

"Old Yu, when will the exercise end?"

Exhausted, Yu Fei responded weakly:

"According to the instructions from the directing center, I remember it should be 3 PM today, right?"

Zhang Beixing nodded, then casually looked around at the consultant and said:

"Hey guys, do you want to keep 'running for your lives,' or wait here for reinforcements?" (End of Chapter)
