He was so persuasive that he actually practiced extraordinary

During their retreat, they encountered a small pursuing force of the enemy.

The pursuing team was clearly enraged by the night raid and was seeking revenge.

Mo Yan immediately directed his team to respond, launching a tense and exciting chase.

"Don't engage them directly. Use the terrain and speed to restrain them," Mo Yan whispered to his team.

In the rolling, ravine-filled mountains, a meticulously planned ambush was quietly unfolding. They, a group of highly trained and determined soldiers, knew every fold and gully of this terrain intimately. Leveraging their profound knowledge of the complex landscape, they skillfully used the cover of the mountains and the echoes of the valleys, like hunters lurking in the darkness, silently leading the enemy into a carefully laid ambush.

The tranquility was shattered the moment the unsuspecting enemy stepped into this deadly trap. The once serene forest seemed to awaken from its slumber, filled with lurking danger. Only then did the enemy realize they were in dire straits; however, it was already too late.

At this moment, Mo Yan's troops descended like divine warriors, launching a sudden attack from the high ground. In an instant, a rain of arrows, like locusts, blotted out the sky, whistling sharply as they shot straight at the enemy. Simultaneously, various projectiles rained down like a storm; grenades traced deadly arcs in the air, exploding among the enemy ranks, sending sparks flying and dust billowing. Under wave after wave of fierce attacks, the enemy was thrown into disarray, their screams and shouts echoing throughout the valley.

Meanwhile, at the distant Red Cell Training Base, a different scene was unfolding in the dormitory. The moment Zhang Beixing stepped into the dormitory, the team members, who had been sitting or lying down and busy with their own things, seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, instantly becoming energetic and surrounding him.

Li Erniu was the first to rush forward. He was burly and had an honest face, but now he looked worried. His eyes were wide open as he asked anxiously, "Brother Yu, how is it? The top leader isn't really planning to fire you, is he? You're the backbone of our team. What will we do if you leave?" As he spoke, he couldn't help but scratch his head, his eyes full of unease.

Song Kaifei stood to the side, arms crossed, looking completely unconcerned. He shrugged and said casually, "How could that be? It's just a small matter. At most, you'll get a major demerit. Getting fired is absolutely out of the question. Brother Yu, you usually perform so well. The leaders must know that. How could they fire you for something like this? That would be like cutting off their own arm."

Xu Tianlong frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of composure and contemplation. He nodded gently, indicating his agreement with Song Kaifei's point of view, and slowly said, "However, a major demerit is quite troublesome. Our captain has been promoted so quickly, becoming a lieutenant at such a young age. He earned that position step by step through his own hard work. If he really gets a major demerit, it will leave a stain on his record, and he won't be able to get promoted for two or three years. This will have a significant impact on the captain's future development."

At this moment, Wang Qiang, who had been silent all along, couldn't help but speak up. He frowned, his tone tinged with worry: "Yes, Brother Yu, this matter can't be taken lightly. We need to think of a way to see if we can talk to the leaders on your behalf and minimize the impact of this. After all, everyone has witnessed your contributions to the team, and we can't let this ruin your promising future."

Looking at his brothers who cared about him, Zhang Beixing felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He smiled slightly, patted Li Erniu on the shoulder, and then looked at the others, saying, "Don't worry, everyone, I know what I'm doing. The top leader is a reasonable person; he will make a fair judgment based on the actual situation. Besides, I did make some mistakes, and it's only right that I accept the punishment. But don't worry, I won't be defeated by this setback. I will work even harder in the future and live up to everyone's expectations."

Hearing Zhang Beixing's words, the team members nodded in agreement, their eyes rekindling with hope and fighting spirit. They knew that no matter what difficulties they encountered, as long as they were united, there was no obstacle they couldn't overcome. At this Red Cell Training Base, full of challenges and opportunities, they would continue to fight side-by-side and write their own glorious chapter.

“That’s right.” He Chenguang nodded in agreement. “Brother Yu, what was the final result?”

Seeing the anxious, chattering group in front of him, Zhang Beixing felt a little touched, but maintained his arrogant expression. He waved his hand helplessly, pushing them away: "Calm down. Comrade An Ran didn't complain at all. Even if something really happened, can't I handle it with my charm?"

Seeing Zhang Beixing looking relaxed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Brother Yu was alright.

He Chenguang laughed and said, "I knew it. We saved their lives in the woods last time. It's just a joke. It's not like we're taking revenge."

"Brother Yu, are you trying to downplay this and make it nothing at all?" Song Kaifei asked, his mouth agape in surprise.

"What? You're really alright? Didn't Number Five say anything about temporarily relieving you of your duties or anything like that?"

Zhang Beixing's gaze was sharp as he coldly swept over them, a sneer escaping his lips: "What? Pilot, are you also interested in my captain's position?"

Although his tone was polite, it concealed a deadly intent. Nodding at that moment would make you a complete fool!
Song Kaifei quickly shook his head, indignantly saying, "How could that be? How could I possibly covet the captain's position! You actually think that about me? Sigh, I'm so heartbroken!"

Flattery never fails. Song Kaifei quickly pressed his advantage, fearing he might be implicated, and said earnestly, "If our Red Cell team absolutely needs a captain, then it has to be you, Zhang Beixing!"

Zhang Beixing chuckled: "Truth or dare?"

"More real than real gold and silver!"

"Tch, I don't believe it." Zhang Beixing rolled his eyes at him. "However, if you're really interested, it's not impossible. Come on, let's have a match. If you can beat me, I'll personally talk to Number Five!"

As he spoke, Zhang Beixing clenched his fist, making a cracking sound.

Song Kaifei shrank back, his face embarrassed, and dared not utter a sound.

Fight you? Ha! You think I'm stupid? I don't want to get beaten to a pulp!

"I have something to tell you." After a moment of silence, Zhang Beixing asked everyone to return to their beds and sit down, and said seriously.

Xu Tianlong asked, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

“Good news.” Zhang Beixing said succinctly, without batting an eye, “Number Five and I have secured a rare opportunity for everyone to engage in combat. In this exercise, our Red Cells will replace the Thunder Commando Team as the whetstone and participate in the battle as the main force of the Red Army’s special forces.”

What? Another drill so soon!

Zhang Beixing paused slightly, then continued, "This is the first battle since the establishment of our Red Cell Special Operations Team, so victory is the only option!"

Upon hearing this news, He Chenguang's eyes lit up: "Brother Yu, who is our opponent?"

As he spoke, a hint of hesitation appeared between his brows: "Could it be our Iron Fist Regiment?"

Li Erniu hesitated for a moment and said, "If it really is our old unit, how are we going to fight this battle?"

Zhang Beixing had no interest in beating around the bush and told them directly: "It's not the Iron Fist Regiment. Our opponent this time is a completely new enemy, the 9th Combined Arms Brigade that has been relocated to the Southeast Military Region!"

The 9th Combined Arms Brigade? Upon hearing this unit designation, Xu Tianlong couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression: "I remember this unit. It was an armored unit, wasn't it? I had dealings with their deputy brigade commander, Meng Xiaohai, when I was in the Cyber ​​Security Department."

“Yes.” Zhang Beixing nodded. “Not only have you dealt with them, but we have too. Erniu, do you remember that courage training in basic training?”

"I'll never forget it." Li Erniu still feels a chill when he thinks about it. "That big tank rumbled over me, it was terrifying!" Zhang Beixing smiled slightly: "The tank soldier from last time, Niu Nuli, the king of soldiers from the 9th Combined Arms Brigade, is our opponent this time."

"Class monitor Niu Nuli? It's him!" He Chenguang and Li Erniu exclaimed in unison.

He Chenguang's eyes darkened, and he said hesitantly, "And he's a tank-driving king of soldiers. Is Number Five planning to make us fight these steel beasts with our flesh and blood?"

Zhang Beixing had already figured this out. He shook his head and said, "Special forces have always been the surprise force on the battlefield, the dagger that plunges into the enemy's chest, the blade that tears through the night. What we want is final victory, so of course we can't go head-to-head with these tanks and armored vehicles on the main battlefield. Therefore, we need to think of a good strategy."

Many hands make light work, and three cobblers can outwit Zhuge Liang. Since Zhang Beixing couldn't find a good solution immediately, he naturally needed to pool his wisdom and efforts, leveraging the strengths of the red blood cell team.

Zhang Beixing glanced at Xu Tianlong and saw him staring blankly, so he asked, "Longlong, what's wrong? Why do you look so serious?"

Xu Tianlong raised his head upon hearing this and slowly said, "Our mission this time is quite challenging. Besides Niu Nuli, whom you just mentioned, there's also the 9th Combined Arms Brigade and the Special Operations Company. Their commander, Yang Junyu, will also be a formidable opponent for us!"

Are they special forces soldiers from the 9th Combined Arms Brigade? Although pride comes before a fall, Zhang Beixing believes that special forces soldiers should have an invincible arrogance when the time is right.

He grinned: "Special forces are nothing! Red Cells are the elite of the elite. If we ever meet on the battlefield, we'll teach them a lesson!"

His passionate words resonated deeply and immediately drew responses from the others.

"That's right, we need to show them what a real special forces unit is like!"

Song Kaifei couldn't help but boast again: "Give me the coordinates, a Z-10 attack helicopter, and I'll blow up their command post!"

The team members exchanged smiles. Having experienced a real war, everyone had become incredibly confident, and they had the right to be boastful.

Zhang Beixing was also full of confidence in winning this war. Everything was ready; all that was needed was the east wind!

Following the military reforms, the 9th Combined Arms Brigade began its full-scale relocation, with a massive armored convoy kicking up clouds of dust as it marched toward the Southeast Military Region.

The live-fire exercise was launched when the 9th Combined Arms Brigade was completely unprepared!

As soon as the convoy of troops, which stretched like a long dragon, entered the war zone, the troop transport trucks of the 9th Brigade were ambushed.

Just as the convoy was slowly making its way up the steep slope, seven WZ-9 attack helicopters suddenly appeared in the sky.

The soldiers were still in a daze, but war was about to break out!
In the sky, armed helicopters hovered and sped by, raining down countless rockets with fiery tails as they crashed directly into the convoy on the ground.

Countless flashes of light and the roar of explosions resounded, and dust billowed high into the sky.

After a brief moment of confusion, the soldiers quickly disembarked and launched a counterattack under the command of the company's command vehicle.

Without powerful anti-air weapons, such a counterattack is tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock.

The shipborne machine guns of the aerial attack helicopters showed no mercy, directly strafing the area.

"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat..." Sparks flew, and after a volley of fire, the combat effectiveness of the troop carrier was immediately reduced by seventy or eighty percent.

Knowing when to retreat, the Z-9 helicopter quickly climbed and turned back before the ground-to-air units of the 9th Combined Arms Brigade arrived in the combat zone, leaving a trail of dust that left the soldiers on the ground watching the helicopter's tail.

That evening, the officers and soldiers of the Ninth Brigade set up camp on the spot and began to actively deploy defenses in preparation for this sudden live-fire exercise.

At the tank company's camp, Company Commander Ma Hanyuan stood on the makeshift training ground and addressed the entire army: "New recruits will inevitably be nervous on the battlefield. You must pay attention to safety and remember what your squad leaders taught you. Every soldier must strictly execute the orders given by the commanders. Do you understand?"

"Understood!!!" the recruits shouted in unison.

Ma Hanyuan nodded in satisfaction: "Good, everyone prepare for battle. Who's on duty tonight?"

"Report!" Zhang Nengliang stepped forward. "It's a joint patrol by our repair squad and Tank Squad One!"

Ma Hanyuan nodded and said, "Let's begin the patrol. Be sure to be careful!"

"Yes!"

In the deep darkness of the night, armored vehicles and tank formations roared into action, advancing along the dirt road, occasionally spewing wisps of white steam into the sky, highlighting the high morale of the entire camp.

At the same time, Yang Junyu of the Ninth Brigade's Special Operations Company was entrusted with an important task and began leading his team to carry out reconnaissance missions.

On the other hand, the tank company had five patrol teams of three people each.

Zhang Nengliang, La Qiangdong, and Yu Dalei formed a group and began a field patrol, each armed with a Type 95 rifle.

In late autumn and early winter, a chill seeps into the night air. The rustling of footsteps echoes through the surrounding weeds, while crickets and chirps chirp softly in the grass.

The chirping of insects made the night seem even more silent. Bored, Yu Dalei started making conversation: "Hey, have you heard? Besides the 199th Brigade, the Wolf Fang Special Operations Brigade's special forces are also participating in this live-fire exercise. I heard that the Wolf Fang Special Operations Brigade has over a thousand people, all special forces soldiers!" (End of Chapter)
