Chapter 203 Unfair? Then let's use our strength to crush them all! (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)

Before reaching the fourth strategic point to replenish supplies, the Red and Blue armies will need to go through three strategic point confrontations, each of which is destined to involve a fierce battle.

Regardless of the final outcome of the battle, ammunition consumption will inevitably be enormous.

In addition, the march along the way was an astonishing 175 kilometers, with more than 60 kilograms of ammunition and supplies on their backs, fighting in the jungle where there were no roads.

It's impossible to run; you can only walk.

Moreover, since the red and blue armies are advancing along the same path to the next strategic point, it is highly likely that there will be no safety issues during the march.

They'll definitely start fighting!

For example, the squad in front could ambush the squads behind, causing trouble for them. The squads catching up from behind could try to sneak up and deliver a surprise attack.

By tripping each other up, they aim to weaken the other's strength.

The 175-kilometer march meant that battles were inevitable along the way, and neither side dared to move too fast, for fear of falling into the other's trap.

These various factors create a series of constraints.

It will take at least three days for both the Red and Blue armies to reach the fourth strategic point.

The high-intensity fighting lasted for more than three days, and the ammunition consumed in the struggle for three strategic points was not replenished anywhere in between.

Successfully reaching the fourth strategic point is no easy task.

To ensure their own combat effectiveness, they must bring enough supplies before setting out.

The amount of food, drink, supplies, and ammunition consumed during this period would undoubtedly be enormous.

In addition to basic equipment such as night vision goggles, gas masks, raincoats, batteries, and flashlights, there are also specially equipped supplies such as breaching cones, explosives, and medical supplies.

The importance of the weight carried by an individual soldier is fully demonstrated.

Whoever brings the most supplies has the greatest fighting strength.

Whoever does so will have an absolute advantage!

Given the limited carrying capacity of individual soldiers, it is crucial to strike a middle ground between supplying materials and carrying ammunition.

Whether the ammunition is exhausted but there is still plenty of food and drink, or the food and drink are gone but there is still a lot of ammunition.

These are all unreasonable configurations.

The entire Ace of Spades commando team consists of 16 people. Apart from Jackie Chan, who is a "disqualified" psychopath, everyone else needs to make careful calculations in advance.

If you have a large load capacity, you can carry it as you please; if you have a small load capacity, you'll have to live frugally.

Jackie Chan can be taken along however he wants, but no one else can.

How should snipers and spotters be equipped with supplies? How should assault operatives be equipped? How should fire support operatives be equipped? How should logistics personnel be equipped?

Each combat position has different tasks, so the allocation of supplies will definitely be different as well.

After the meeting ends and we go downstairs.

In the days leading up to the competition, Jackie Chan would definitely create a personalized supplies list for each of the participating team members.

In individual combat, every single person is important; they are all indispensable.

Resource allocation must be reasonable and cover as much as possible.

Only in this way can we successfully survive these three or four days and gain a better advantage than the enemy in the most crucial battle for the fourth strategic point's resources.

The airdropped supplies at strategic points are extremely important, accounting for at least 20% of the victory or defeat.

Absolutely no mistakes are allowed.

After explaining the fourth strategic point, a crucial turning point, I made the team members realize the importance of this point and mentally tighten their resolve.

Yuan Lang continued, "Once the battle for supplies at the fourth strategic point is over, it will be the final decisive battle."

If the red and blue teams fail to determine a final winner in the first four strategic points, they will need to proceed to the fifth strategic point, which is 25 kilometers away.

The exercise team has not yet released any information regarding the fifth strategic point.

The exact location, the tasks for both the red and blue teams, and the format of the finals are all currently unknown.

Judging from the design of the first four strategic points, the final strategic point will certainly not be simple.

In order to take down the Wolf Fang Commando, you must prepare from the very beginning and leave enough space for the final fifth strategic point.

Having explained the rules and procedures of the competition, only the final issue of personnel configuration remained.

"We have a basic understanding of the competition process. Now there's only one last thing: how many people should we send? How should the teams be configured for the opposing sides?"

Jackie Chan took the initiative to ask, "Our Spade Ace Commando Team consists of two groups, a main team and a deputy team, with a combat strength of eight people each. Should all of them go, or should only one group go?"

"Ugh, that's the most troublesome part."

Yuan Lang turned around and sat down at the conference table. He took out a cigarette, lit one, took a puff, and said, "Our optimal combat formation is an 8-person team, but the Lone Wolf Commando is different from us."

For some reason, the exercise team gave me information that it was a six-person competition, and the Lone Wolf Commando only sent six members to participate in this competition.

To ensure fairness for both sides, the exercise department stipulated that our Blue Team could only send six members.

Therefore, you need to select six people to represent the Ace of Spades Commando Team as the Blue Team, and compete against the Lone Wolf Commando Team's Red Team.

When Yuan Lang revealed the personnel configuration, the members of the Ace of Spades Commando Team immediately went ballistic.

"This is so unfair! Why should we follow their configuration?" Tuo Yonggang, who had the short temper, was the first to blurt out.

"Yes, it's definitely not fair."

Wu Zhe frowned and protested, "We have always trained in five-person teams and fought in eight-person teams. We have never formed a six-person team. This is a disguised way of weakening us."

On the other hand, the Lone Wolf Commando Team on the other side only had six people, so they must have been a team of six, used to fighting together as a group of six.

It's unfair for us to use a configuration we're not good at against the opponent's best configuration.

Wu Liuyi couldn't help but complain, "Southern Xinjiang is the Wolf Fang Commando's stronghold, so they already have an advantage. It's too much to favor them now."

Wolf Fang, having grown up in the jungles of southern Xinjiang, is indeed more suited to jungle warfare.

In contrast, the area where Old A was located, the BJ Military Region, was mainly composed of loess plateaus and plains, with no primeval forests to be found.

If it weren't for this anti-drug operation, most of the team members would never have seen what a primeval jungle looks like.

The fact that the exercise team located the Blue Army camp in Wenshan proves that the competition venue must be in the mountains, the place where the Lone Wolf Commando Team grew up.

A comparison of the training facilities between the two sides clearly shows whose advantage is being taken into account.

"Why do we have to reduce our numbers? Can't the other side add a few more? Aren't they also a commando team? It's impossible for them to only have 6 people."

Even Xu Sanduo, the most honest member of the entire assault team, couldn't hold back any longer and stood up to complain.

"Hey, they really only have 6 people."

Jackie Chan secretly rejoiced. He knew that the Lone Wolf Commando Team only had one six-man A group, and there was no point in saying anything more. Solving the problem was the key.

So he stepped forward to interrupt the grumbling and said, "Alright, since the exercise department has made this arrangement, let's just do it."

So what if I'm not familiar with the setup? So what if the other side is a local expert? So what if I'm more experienced in jungle warfare? Are you scared? Answer me.

"Don't be afraid!"

All team members spoke in unison, their voices loud and clear.

"Since we're not afraid, then that's it. Who cares what tricks they pull? Strength is the only thing that matters. We'll just crush them."

Jackie Chan's domineering words, coupled with his imposing image, make him exceptionally convincing.

The dissatisfaction in the hearts of the Spade Axe Commando members was immediately blown away, leaving only an even stronger fighting spirit than before.

This is the advantage of leadership qualities; they can quickly turn around the morale of the team.

"Very good, very motivated."

Yuan Lang was very satisfied with the state of the assault team and said directly to Jackie Chan, "I'll leave this to you. You decide which six members will participate in the exercise. Once you've chosen them, bring me the list and I'll report it to the exercise team."

"Okay, I understand."

Jackie Chan nodded and looked at the team members present.

The members of the commando team all wanted to prove themselves. Even if they weren't aiming for honor, they wanted to prove themselves. No one wanted to miss such a good opportunity.

Even Xu Sanduo, who seemed to have the least purpose in life, wanted to participate in this competition.

Because he felt it was a meaningful thing!

Therefore, when faced with Jackie Chan's gaze, whether it was the calm and suspicious Wu Zhe, the competitive and confident Tuo Yonggang, the single-minded Wu Liuyi who only wanted to be the best, or Xu Sanduo who was no less capable than others but dared not kill, they all...

They all unconsciously straightened their backs, presenting their best selves.

Jackie Chan already had a basic idea in mind. After glancing at them, he decided to settle on three, making a total of four including himself as the team leader and captain.

"I know your abilities better than you do yourselves, so I won't hold a vote; I'll just call out names myself."

Jackie Chan looked around and pointed to three people at once.

"The six-person team is similar to the eight-person team; we can just reduce the size. Now I'll start making arrangements, including the specific personnel and combat positions."

Wu Liuyi, the breaching expert; Tuo Yonggang, the reconnaissance assault expert; Wu Zhe, the sniper observer; and I, the commander and demolition expert.

We are still missing a front-line assault soldier and a logistics medic; we will select from the remaining personnel.

Everyone here is a carefully selected elite, and their abilities are actually quite similar, so I'll use the most direct and simple method.

Jackie Chan opened the notebook to the last page, tearing off a slip of paper as he did so, saying, "The last two spots will be decided by drawing lots, one from the assault team and one from the logistics medics. Whether you can participate or not depends on your fate."

The commando team had three assault soldiers and two and a half medics and support personnel left.

The remaining half was a medical support soldier in a 5-person team during CQB special training. Later, when the team was reorganized into an 8-person team, he was reassigned to a different position while also serving as a reserve medic.

Jackie Chan held three slips of paper in his left hand and three slips of paper in his right hand.

He stretched out his hand and said to the team members, "Assault soldiers, come to the left and draw a slip of paper; medical and logistics soldiers, come to the right. The one that draws a slip of paper with words on it is selected."

Whether you can participate depends on your luck.
