Chapter 204: A heart-wrenching trap?!

"The golden mountain in Beijing shines in all directions..."

The passionate and loud red songs, like a fiery torrent, echoed for a long time in this base in the deep mountains and old forests surrounded by mountains and shaded by green trees, as if to penetrate every inch of land and inject the blood and passion into this mysterious and powerful place.

In the solemn and dignified building of Old A Regular Army, soft light shone on the table, and Captain Tielu was concentrating on reading the thick stack of transcripts and resumes in front of him.

His eyes shuttled between lines of text and data, and he nodded slightly from time to time and uttered a few words of amazement.

Finally, he raised his head and his eyes fell on Yuan Lang who was waiting quietly on the side.

"Honestly, your tyrannical plan makes me shake my head." Railway's voice was deep and powerful, with a hint of undisguised surprise. "I've been waiting for your group to revolt these days. I was surprised that none of the forty-two people quit. I'm really surprised."

Yuan Lang narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He took a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, slowly exhaled a cloud of white smoke, and looked through the window at the rolling hills in the distance.

"These forty-two individuals are the cream of the crop, each one simmering in a fierce determination to never give up. No one wants to be the first to leave, and so this brutal elimination process becomes a test of willpower, a challenge to one's own limits."

Tielu smiled softly, a glint of admiration in his eyes. He closed the report card in his hand and said firmly, "Okay, it's settled. From now on, Old A will have eleven more strong men."

"Those who must die can be killed; those who must live can be captured." Yuan Lang suddenly said softly, his voice low and magnetic, as if it contained endless profound meaning.

Tielu was slightly startled, a puzzled look on his face. He looked at Yuan Lang puzzledly and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Yuan Lang took a few more puffs of his cigarette, then slowly turned around, his gaze calm and penetrating at the railway. "I can rely on my calmness and wisdom to kill those reckless and reckless enemies; I can also rely on my courage and decisiveness to capture those who are afraid of death and weak-willed.

But what I really fear, or what I really desire, are those who love life, yet can bravely move forward at the critical moment, and give everything for their mission and their comrades without hesitation."

Tielu frowned. He looked carefully at Yuan Lang's expression, trying to find more meaning in his eyes.

"I know you're an experienced veteran, and there's no enemy you can't handle on the battlefield. But I don't understand why you suddenly thought of saying this? I remember you weren't the type to quibble with words."

Yuan Lang flicked the ash from his cigarette, his lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. "It suddenly occurred to me that some words can only be understood more deeply at certain moments."

Tielu subconsciously glanced down at the report card on the table, nodded slightly, and said, "These eleven people are more than enough. You know, those forty-two people are all top soldiers carefully selected from various army groups. After your brutal and hellish training, these eleven people fully meet Old A's standards.

It's no exaggeration to say that, aside from a slight lack of actual combat experience, they are no less physically fit and skilled than the veteran players of Old A."

Yuan Lang took his last drag on his cigarette, stubbed it out in the ashtray, and turned, his gaze fixed firmly on the railway. "I'm worried. This isn't a grassroots unit, nor is it a place built solely on comradeship. I want to be able to go to the battlefield, to brave the elements, to be with true comrades, to be able to trust each other without reservation!"

Tielu was deeply touched by Yuan Lang's words. He took a deep breath and a hint of understanding appeared in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll report this to the military district. I'll wait until you've chosen the comrades who truly belong to your squad. This is the squad you formed yourself, and I fully respect your opinion."

The two looked at each other, their eyes flashing with determination and trust. They had reached a tacit understanding that did not require words.

The cafeteria, which was once bustling and could accommodate forty-two people, now has only eleven people left, and seems particularly empty and quiet.

Especially when they lined up neatly and walked into the cafeteria, looking at the empty tables and chairs, an indescribable complex emotion surged in their hearts.

They quietly moved the usual square table away and replaced it with a large round table that could accommodate ten people.

After all, in the army, thrift and not wasting resources are traditions that every soldier keeps in mind.

This meal was extremely sumptuous. The table was filled with all kinds of ingredients, both seen and not seen before, emitting an enticing aroma.

Not long after, Yuan Lang walked in with a smile on his face. As he walked, he said loudly: "Oh, today is a big day. Look at me, I'm late. I'm so sorry!"

After saying that, he sat down next to Feng Yuxiu, then turned around, waved to a student, and said with a smile, "Come on, open a bottle of wine and show everyone how to open a bottle with your bare hands."

The student he pointed at looked confused and subconsciously looked at the other students, his eyes full of doubt and confusion.

They really didn't understand what Yuan Lang was trying to say.

The student quickly stood up and shouted, "Report, I'm number 11!"

Yuan Lang smiled amiably and said, "No, no, no. From now on, you're no longer No. 11. You're Wang Feng. And Xu Sanduo, you're no longer No. 42. You're Xu Sanduo."

"And you... your name is Chengcai, your name is Huang Ziqiang, your name is Wu Zhe, your name is Tong Liguo, your name is Xue Gang... In the future, you may use code names during missions, but in this place that belongs to us, you must all go by your own names."

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that this change would come so suddenly and catch them off guard.

Before they were even mentally prepared, Yuan Lang's words brought them into a completely new role and identity.

Yuan Lang pulled a stack of wolf-head armbands from his pocket and gently placed them on the table, his eyes revealing a hint of pride and anticipation. "I just took them. These are your armbands. From now on, you will all wear your ranks. Oh, and welcome to Team A, the eleven damn As!"

Feng Yuxiu looked quietly at the armband on the table. The wolf head pattern was so ferocious and domineering.

Of course, among everyone, Chengcai is the most excited.

His eyes were wide open, almost falling on the armband, staring at the armband that symbolized the future and glory.

He became Old A, a soldier in the special brigade that was envied by all the grassroots companies. This had always been his dream, and now it had finally come true.

However, the atmosphere in the cafeteria seemed a little quiet. Everyone was immersed in their own thoughts and did not cheer as Yuan Lang had imagined.

Yuan Lang looked at them strangely, a hint of confusion on his face. "Why aren't you drinking? I thought you'd be so happy after this hellish training."

Wu Zhe's eyes flashed with uncertainty. He stood up and said loudly, "Instructor, didn't you say the training period was three months? It's only been a month, how come it ended so suddenly?"

Yuan Lang laughed heartily, his laughter infectious. "To become a special forces soldier, you must learn to cope with all unexpected situations. I said three months, and you all mentally prepared for three months, but in reality, there are no three months. You are all top soldiers, and this physical training is nothing but useless repetition for you."

Wu Zhe was still a little worried. He seemed to have seen through Yuan Lang's unpredictable nature. "You asked us to do things that we never thought we could do ourselves. This proves that you are a first-class instructor. But we have to be wary of you. Who knows what tricks you have up your sleeve?"

Yuan Lang smoked a cigarette and threw a few to the students next to him. Then he leaned back in his chair and said with a smile, "What should I do? I'm no longer your instructor. Originally, I was planning to be your squad leader, but now you all seem to distrust me."

Wu Zhe showed a hint of hesitation on his face. He looked at Yuan Lang and said seriously, "Will you promise not to cheat us again in the future?"

Yuan Lang said without hesitation: "I promise that from now on, we are one. We will live and die together, and share honor and disgrace together."

Wu Zhe was finally relieved. He raised his glass and smiled brightly. "Then I really hope to be your team member."

As soon as these words were spoken, the cafeteria erupted in excitement. Everyone shook their beer bottles and sprayed them out like fire extinguishers, cheering and shouting, releasing the pressure and joy in their hearts.

Chengcai even burst into tears while holding a beer bottle. The pressure during this period was really too great. He finally made it through and no longer had to worry about the fear and confusion of returning to Class 5 of the Grassland.

He could proudly write a letter to his father, telling him that he had become a soldier in the special forces and that he would have a bright future. He could even be received by the leaders of the local county government, and his family would achieve a class leap from the valley under the banyan tree.

Yuan Lang smiled and drank beer, but a hint of indifference and uncertainty flashed in his eyes.

His peripheral vision slowly turned to Feng Yuxiu who was being pulled up by Wu Zhe.

In this group of people, everyone can cooperate according to the training requirements, except Feng Yuxiu, who is always so unique, so jumpy, and full of uncertainty.

He can do things entirely according to his own preferences, and can also break away from the team's cooperation at critical moments. Although such a soldier has strong strength, he is also too dangerous.

However, since Yuan Lang said that the training period is three months, it must be three months. There are still two months left, and he wants to see whether Feng Yuxiu can truly integrate into this group and become a qualified special forces soldier.

After finishing his meal, Yuan Lang stood on the stage with joy, looking at the eleven people below.

"Well, that's it for the time being. From now on, everyone will follow Old A's training tasks. But don't worry, it won't be as inhumane as before. After all, hard work pays off."

Everyone showed a happy smile. Their identities had undergone a drastic change at this moment, and their mentality towards training also changed accordingly.

However, they still did not move to the regular army dormitory across the street.

According to Qi Huan, a group of old A's will be transferred away soon, and everyone can move there after they are transferred.

Looking at the brand new wolf-head epaulettes on their shoulders, they felt particularly relaxed. They could finally walk out of the dormitory building and feel the sunshine and fresh air outside.

Chengcai lay on the grass, looking at the blue sky, and sighed: "It has been a long time since I found the sky so beautiful."

Wu Zhe took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly, and a look of contentment appeared on his face. "Yeah, I thought I was locked up, but in reality, I was always worried about what I would gain and what I would lose. It's only now that I feel a sense of relief."

Feng Yuxiu glanced at Wu Zhe. This gifted boy was always so open-minded and could calmly analyze everything. He was more rational than Chengcai and knew how to make choices better.

In Feng Yuxiu's opinion, Wu Zhe is a person with a broad perspective and is worth learning from.

Just after they rested for three days, Yuan Lang stood on the training ground with a smile on his face, looking at the players lined up neatly in front of him.

"That's right. In the next two weeks, in addition to physical training, we will add another activity, which is tactical command and overall planning."

"I don't know how to do that, and Old A isn't that talented. Normally, this would be taught in a military academy. Considering that some of you haven't attended military academy and haven't been exposed to this kind of knowledge, we've loaned an instructor from another military region to give you a two-week tactical command course."

Yuan Lang's smile slowly turned around, pausing for a second on Feng Yuxiu's face, and a barely perceptible hint flashed in his eyes.

"Everyone, stand up!" Qi Huang roared suddenly, his voice as loud as a bell, and everyone stood up quickly and in an orderly manner.

All around, armored vehicles started moving slowly, making low roars.

The sunlight shines on the earth, making the tender grass look green, like a vibrant ocean.

Under the scorching sun, a graceful figure slowly walked towards the armored vehicle.

"Fuck me!"

Someone couldn't help but let out a soft cry, and everyone stared at the beautiful figure in a daze, their eyes filled with surprise and curiosity.

Feng Yuxiu also looked over, and when he saw the face of the beautiful figure clearly, he froze instantly.

Li Xuanxuan was wearing a neat military uniform and walked towards them with firm steps.

There was a serious expression on her face, and her eyes revealed confidence and majesty.

When she reached the front of the team, she paused slightly and glanced at everyone present.

"Hello everyone, I'm Li Xuanxuan, the tactical command instructor seconded here. For the next two weeks, I'll be teaching you about tactical command and overall planning. I hope you'll study diligently and cooperate actively."

Everyone was slightly stunned. They didn't expect that the seconded instructor was actually a woman, and so young, beautiful and full of charm.

Yuan Lang stepped forward and said with a smile, "Okay, everyone has heard carefully. From now on, please follow Instructor Li and learn from him. Everyone should cherish this opportunity."

After saying that, Yuan Lang glanced at Feng Yuxiu, a meaningful glint in his eyes.

This is a test for Feng Yuxiu, but this test is extremely dangerous.

He knew Feng Yuxiu's strength, if it were to fully unleash.

There are few people in the entire old A base who can suppress his explosive power.

Therefore, this is a risky move!
And the bait is Li Xuanxuan.
