Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 114 Gangzi is stubborn and challenges Jackie Chan.

If Jackie Chan hadn't stopped him in time, Xu Sanduo, in his moment of stubbornness, would have almost opened the door and run downstairs to admire himself in the military uniform mirror.

There's only one palm-sized round mirror in the dorm, which isn't really enough to see your whole body.

Jackie Chan suggested to Xu Sanduo, "If you want to see if clothes look good on you, you don't need to go through all that trouble. Just look at me. I'm your enhanced, magnified Plus version, and you're my super fangirl version."

"Hey, boss, you're so smart."

Xu Sanduo thought about it and realized it was true. He stared at Jackie Chan from head to toe, excitedly muttering, "I look so good in this uniform, even more handsome and stronger than those old A's..."

Xu Sanduo imagined himself as Jackie Chan. Seeing how majestic and powerful the clothes looked on Jackie Chan, he thought he would look just as handsome in them.

I was so happy!

Completely unaware that the clothes she was wearing were dry and looked like they were malnourished.

There's nothing majestic or imposing about it!

Just as Xu Sanduo was engrossed in watching, Tuo Yonggang and Wu Zhe, drenched in sweat and exhausted, rushed into the dormitory, panting heavily.

Tuo Yonggang took off his coat and threw it on the table, angrily clenching his fist and saying, "I just... really wanted to punch him in the face."

Besides, what kind of uniform is this? Not only are we not allowed to wear rank insignia, but they don't even provide armbands. Even a dog's mother wouldn't wear it.

Just as he finished speaking, he saw Jackie Chan and Xu Sanduo, who had already changed into new training uniforms.

He shouted, clearly annoyed, "42, 44, are you two so honored? You can't wait to put on this shabby piece of clothing as soon as you get back?"

"arrive!"

As was his habit, Xu Sanduo would hurriedly run over and stand at attention when called by the officer.

After running only two steps, a hand landed on his shoulder.

The hand belonged to Jackie Chan. It wasn't very strong, but it was enough to immobilize him and easily pulled him back, pressing him down into the chair.

"What are you so nervous about? Look at you, you've completely disgraced the Seventh Company," Jackie Chan shouted.

"Commander, the commander is calling us."

Xu Sanduo stared blankly as he spoke, wanting to get up again but afraid of being scolded by Jackie Chan, his face full of conflict.

"Where's the leader? Huh? What leader? You want my hand? I'll give you both of my hands, do you want them or not?"

Jackie Chan stretched out his palm, as big as a fan, and pretended to slap Xu Sanduo, which frightened Xu Sanduo so much that he quickly covered his head and dodged.

That enormous, sky-covering hand could knock someone unconscious with a single slap.

It's impossible not to be scared after seeing that.

Xu Sanduo obediently sat down, and Jackie Chan continued, "Didn't you hear what the instructor just said? From the moment the training uniforms were issued, there were no officers or soldiers in this place."

Everyone has only one identity: student. We are all students, just like everyone else.

"Oh, does that mean we're all the same?" Xu Sanduo seemed to understand.

"It's all the same. We're all trainees. There's no need to be so neurotic all the time. As long as some people who still act like officers shout at you, you should just rush forward like a fool."

When Jackie Chan spoke, he deliberately looked at Tuo Yonggang, making it clear that he was speaking to him.

This is not Jackie Chan stirring up trouble.

Instead, it was to help Tuo Yonggang, so that he might be able to stay.

Tuo Yonggang has a very powerful background; he was personally recruited by the brigade leader, Tie Lu.

Because he was so superior that no one dared to mess with him, and he had never suffered a loss in his own unit, coupled with his genuine ability, Tuo Yonggang became arrogant and conceited.

A personality that is too straightforward and lacks tact.

This is why Tuo Yonggang, despite having decent abilities and a personality suitable for being a buddy, with virtually no major flaws, became the first trainee to be eliminated.

With Tuo Yonggang's background and abilities, coupled with his straightforward and frank personality.

As long as you can correct your minor flaws, you can definitely become an excellent veteran and grow into a reliable teammate in the future.

Correcting his bad habits is actually not a difficult task.

It could even be said to be very easy.

In summary, it can be summed up in three words—

Better than him!

Tuo Yonggang is the most typical example of someone who only respects those who are better than him.

In the original storyline, the shooting match that ignited the conflict and led to Tuo Yonggang's elimination was where Yuan Lang won Tuo Yonggang's respect through sheer skill.

From the moment he was completely defeated, Tuo Yonggang matured overnight.

Instead of making a scene or angrily threatening to complain after being eliminated, they genuinely regretted their actions.

The fact that Tuo Yonggang could be so quickly awakened and matured also proves his versatility.

When Jackie Chan watched TV dramas in his previous life, he didn't really like the eccentric Tuo Yonggang. He felt that such an impulsive person couldn't be a special forces soldier.

You can watch the later episodes.

I gradually came to understand Tuo Yonggang's true nature and his magnanimous and straightforward personality.

He discovered that Tuo Yonggang was a friend worth making, but he also regretted that Tuo Yonggang's impulsive bet with Yuan Lang led to his premature departure from the Old A Special Training.

Now that he's roommates with Tuo Yonggang, Jackie Chan feels he can definitely lend him a hand.

As for whether it will ultimately succeed.

Jackie Chan's work isn't of high quality; it all depends on his own efforts and luck.

Tuo Yonggang didn't understand Jackie Chan's good intentions and thought that Jackie Chan was targeting him. He immediately said unhappily, "What do you mean? Did I yell at you? I was just giving you a friendly reminder."

"Whether it's true or not, you know for sure."

Jackie Chan chuckled and continued to deliberately provoke him, saying, "You need to understand that in the Old A, everything depends on your strength. Talk is useless, and rank means nothing."

Tuo Yonggang had indeed fallen for Jackie Chan's trap. He glared at him angrily and said, "Even without a military rank, I'm still better than you. Want to have a contest?"

"Alright, let's have a competition. You can choose any project you want, and I'll give you a three-move head start," Jackie Chan said arrogantly on purpose.

"Give way? I don't need you to give way..."

"27. Keep a calm mind, keep a calm mind."

Seeing the tension between the two sides, Wu Zhe quickly stepped in to mediate, saying, "We're all from the same dormitory, so we should unite against a common enemy. The Butcher is our real enemy."

"No, he's bullying us too much. He really thinks he's so great. He's determined to settle things with us today."

Tuo Yonggang and Wu Liuyi are very similar; once they get stubborn, not even nine oxen could pull them back.

He strode up to Jackie Chan, neck stiff, and said, "It's inconvenient to go outside, so let's have an indoor competition. Are you in?"

"Ha, are you sure?" Jackie Chan was amused.

"Sure!"

Tuo Yonggang stared with his round eyes, which were filled with the words "I refuse to admit defeat".

"Fine, since you've brought this upon yourself, there's no need for me to save face for you."

Tuo Yonggang had already jumped into the pit himself, and Jackie Chan immediately announced the rules: "Best of five, we'll take turns talking about the project. Whoever loses has to admit defeat to the other person from today until the end of the special training. How about it, are you brave enough to play?"

"27, 44, calm down, sit down and chat. You're all roommates, there's no need to compare," Wu Zhe continued to persuade.

In fact, Wu Zhe had something else to say, but he was afraid that saying it would hurt Tuo Yonggang's pride.

In Wu Zhe's personal opinion...

He might have a better chance of winning against Jackie Chan in outdoor sports, such as shooting and running, where strength advantage is not a major factor.

If you play with Jackie Chan indoors, you can only play physical games, and the outcome is never in doubt.

With Jackie Chan's monstrous physique...

Anyone who tries to compete with him in physical or strength-based contests is simply asking for trouble.

Unfortunately, Tuo Yonggang is impulsive by nature. Jackie Chan ignited his anger, and he lost his temper, making it impossible for him to analyze the situation calmly.

Ignoring Wu Zhe's attempts to persuade him, he said with a flushed face, "Come on, who's afraid of who? Whoever loses and tries to renege on the debt is a coward."

"Okay, that's manly enough, I'll let you choose first," Jackie Chan said generously.

"I don't need it. I'm a lieutenant, and you're just a sergeant. You go first." Tuo Yonggang wasn't willing to take any advantage, which was quite manly of him.

"Alright."

Jackie Chan didn't waste time pushing and shoving Tuo Yonggang. He smiled mischievously and said, "Since you're so confident, let's have an arm wrestling match."

"Arm wrestling?"

Just a second ago, Tuo Yonggang was full of confidence, but suddenly he froze on the spot, feeling a bit confused and needing to sort things out.

"Yes, arm wrestling."

Jackie Chan easily moved the desk to the middle, sat down, and stretched his arm out on the desk, saying, "Come on."

"Sigh~"

Wu Zhe sighed, unable to bear to look.

Looking at Jackie Chan's arm propped up on the table, which was thicker than Tuo Yonggang's calf, Wu Zhe already knew the result beforehand, as there was no need for comparison.

"Gurgle~"

Looking at Jackie Chan's exaggerated arms, Tuo Yonggang suddenly felt his throat was extremely dry, and he couldn't moisten it even after swallowing several mouthfuls of saliva.

But I've already made my promise, and it would be too shameful to run away now.

"Who's afraid of who? Bring it on!"

Tuo Yonggang could only put on a brave face, let out a loud shout to bolster his courage, and strode over to the desk, standing there with his hands on the table.

That's a pretty clever move!

Standing has a significant advantage when arm wrestling, as you can transfer the weight of your upper body onto your hands, which effectively adds extra strength.

Jackie Chan saw through Tuo Yonggang's little trick, but with his strength, he didn't care at all.

In the face of absolute power.

All those little tricks are just fluff.

He turned to Wu Zhe and said, "39, could you please be the referee?"

"Alright."

Wu Zhe realized that he couldn't persuade him otherwise, so he could only treat it as a friendly competition between roommates and accepted Jackie Chan's invitation.

He walked over and shook hands with the two of them, without correcting Tuo Yonggang's minor foul.

It's not that Wu Zhe is biased towards Tuo Yonggang.

There's really no need to correct it!

With both arms resting on the table at the same time, the visual contrast is already very obvious. Compared to Jackie Chan, Tuo Yonggang's arms are really too weak and frail.

Compared to a chopstick, is it really necessary for a steel pipe to care about these small details?

No need at all!

Since the outcome was already predetermined, why bother arguing about such a trivial matter? He casually placed the objects and gave the order: "Begin!"

"Hah~"

Tuo Yonggang gritted his teeth and growled, exerting his strength immediately, trying to gain the upper hand.

The result left him dumbfounded!

I thought that by unleashing a powerful attack first, I could break Jackie Chan's hand a little, so that he could press his body down and win this round.

Despite his best efforts, Jackie Chan's hand remained completely still.

It was as if he wasn't arm wrestling with the same hand.

Instead, it was a large steel bar welded to the table, integrated with the entire building.
