Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 72 Yuan Lang's mentality crumbles! (Second update, please vote and subscribe)

"What? We've been ambushed again?"

Yuan Lang stayed up all night at the camp, hoping to get some good news so he could get a good night's sleep.

To his utter surprise, the Blue Army suffered a devastating blow when they hanged themselves twice on the same rope.

He was completely stunned!

"Yes, we lost more than a dozen more. If it weren't for my Old A team providing timely support from below, the entire Third Company would probably have been wiped out there."

Qi Huan's head was about to explode; he truly couldn't understand where things had gone wrong.

"That's really weird, how did they do that?"

Yuan Lang was just curious before, but now the nature of his feelings has completely changed.

Curiosity turned into obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Their fighting spirit was ignited.

Since becoming the captain of the Old A squadron, Yuan Lang has had an ace team that is unmatched in the group army. He has unique skills and walks with confidence.

He hadn't experienced such a strong emotional fluctuation in a long time, nor had he had such a strong desire to fight.

The last time Yuan Lang felt such a strong urge to fight his enemy was so long ago that he had completely forgotten when it was.

If it weren't for the fact that it's already too late, and the three companies have suffered heavy losses and their morale has been completely destroyed.

He was even considering personally leading another surprise attack!

The fact that the Seventh Steel Company was able to predict a night attack suggests that the enemy had some skill, plus a bit of luck; it was purely coincidental.

The second attack could also be perfectly predicted; it seemed sinister from every angle.

Duke Huan of Qi couldn't understand it!

Yuan Lang couldn't understand it either!

What was originally an ordinary day has become, after these two dramatic events late at night, destined to leave many people sleepless and unable to fall asleep tonight.

Yuan Lang was one of those who stayed up all night.

After staying up all night, he finally waited for dawn and couldn't wait to set off alone with his 88 sniper rifle, ready to meet the haunted Steel Seventh Company.

Because we had two fights last night, and the results were very good.

The Seventh Steel Company did not launch an attack today. Instead, it chose to stay on Hill 034, digging trenches and building fortifications to prevent a retaliatory counterattack from the Blue Army.

While the entire company focused on conserving its energy and waiting for the regimental command to resume operations.

Since there are no attack missions at the moment, and Hill 034 has an excellent field of vision, it can detect enemies even if they attack from a few hundred meters away.

In addition, the Seventh Steel Company shone brightly last night, making a great impression on the entire regiment.

Therefore, most of the remaining 20-odd soldiers of the Steel Seventh Company, except for those sent out to guard posts, hid under the shade of trees, chatting and joking in groups of three or five.

Cheng Cai lay prone in a deep trench, aiming his Type 85 rifle haphazardly around.

Tired of aiming at leaves and branches, he actually pointed his gun at his comrades in the distance.

Every time he aims at the enemy's forehead, he will say "bang" and imagine that he has killed the enemy before moving on to the next target.

As a result, I got hooked after just one glance.

The crosshair even hit the instructor's forehead.

Instructor Hong Xingguo, who was less than 15 meters away, immediately noticed Cheng Cai's misbehavior and warned him, "Cheng Cai, what are you looking at? Have you forgotten the gun regulations? Don't think you can mess around just because you're here for an exercise."

Never point your gun at friendly forces, and never hold your gun with your fingers spread wide.

This is the basics of using a gun!

Cheng Cai clearly knew these regulations. After being scolded by the instructor, he immediately moved the gun away, but still muttered under his breath, "They're all loaded with blanks, they won't kill anyone, why are you so nervous?"

Judging from his carefree and irresponsible attitude, it's clear that he's really gotten carried away.

Yesterday, he found and eliminated a Blue Army sniper, earning high praise from the company commander. During the ambush last night, he single-handedly took down four Blue Army soldiers.

This made Cheng Cai feel incredibly proud of himself, and his arrogance was written all over his face.

In addition, the company commander is no longer here, and neither is Jackie Chan.

The company commander was summoned to a meeting at the regiment headquarters and specially brought along Jackie Chan, the hero of yesterday.

The only two people Cheng Cai was afraid of in the Seventh Steel Company are no longer here.

Feeling extremely confident, Cheng Cai had no more inhibitions. He thought he had accomplished something great yesterday and that no one could control him anymore.

If it weren't for gravity holding him down, he probably would have floated into the sky.

Without the sighted gun to amuse him, Cheng Cai's carefree eyes darted around, and he spotted Xu Sanduo, who was intently lying on the fortifications, aiming straight ahead.

His eyes darted around, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Xu family's third son, the third fool, Xu Sanduo."

Cheng Cai had called him by every name imaginable. Xu Sanduo turned his head blankly and saw Cheng Cai beckoning to him, signaling him to come over.

Xu Sanduo did not go over immediately, but looked around first.

No one was there.

Then he turned his head to look behind him.

They discovered that everyone had run away from the position and gone to the trees to hide from the sun and cool off, leaving only a few sentries still on duty.

Xu Sanduo has finally figured things out and is much smarter now.

No longer as rigid as before, he fired for two seconds before putting away his gun and running towards Cheng Cai.

"Come, come, come here."

Cheng Cai called over Xu Sanduo, who had run over, and pulled him to sit down against the wall by the river. His first question was, "How many did you kill yesterday?"

"I...I don't know. Everyone was shooting, so I started shooting too," Xu Sanduo replied with a silly grin.

but.

Even if Xu Sanduo knew how many he had hit and answered accurately, it wouldn't matter.

Cheng Cai specifically called him over, not to hear how many enemies Xu Sanduo had killed, but to find an audience to listen to him brag and boast.

"I took down five in total, and I saw it all clearly through the scope."

After Cheng Cai excitedly boasted, Xu Sanduo, unlike before, didn't immediately express his envy and say, "That's amazing!" He even added, "That's five! That's so awesome!"

"Five? Brother Cheng, you're amazing! I didn't even know if I had one."

As soon as Xu Sanduo finished speaking, Cheng Cai's lips curled into a smile. He had been waiting for those words; he wanted to hear someone praise him for being awesome.

The whole company knew Cheng Cai's true nature, and no one wanted to listen to his boasting. Xu Sanduo was his only audience.

Seeing Xu Sanduo looking at him with envy, he took out his gun and said vividly, "Do you know what it feels like to look out from here?"

Xu Sanduo shook his head, his eyes shining.

He thought Cheng Cai was going to show him the gun so that he could experience what it's like to be a sniper.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Cai couldn't bear to part with it at all, and put the Type 85 precision rifle away again, saying, "When you look through it, the whole world is gone, leaving only you and the target."

You felt great then, like everything was under your control, and all you had to do was slowly pull the trigger, bang, the enemy was dead.

Cheng Cai stretched out his fingers and gestured as he spoke, making a loud sound and a large gesture when he said "bang".

Xu Sanduo was so frightened that he shuddered.

Cheng Cai loved watching Xu Sanduo's rustic appearance and laughed heartily, saying between laughs, "That feeling is just too awesome. You definitely can't understand it because you're not combative and don't have that talent."

"I'm just a mule, you're a celestial horse, I'm definitely not as good as you, I just need to finish the 81-bar." Xu Sanduo chuckled, touching the 81-bar.

Contentment brings happiness; a perfect description.

"Look at you, so pathetic, so boring."

Cheng Cai patted Xu Sanduo's helmet, took out a cigarette, lit it, and said, "A man should have ideals. A couple of days ago, I was even planning to transfer to the Third Company."

The statement that Cheng Cai is not even afraid of his instructor may be true.

Since everyone's leaving, they're naturally not afraid anymore.

"Huh? Why? Isn't the Seventh Company good?" Xu Sanduo was greatly shocked.

"Don't tell anyone."

Cheng Cai first gave Xu Sanduo some advice and instructions, then took a puff of smoke, exhaled it, and fanned the smoke with his hand, saying naturally, "There's nothing strange about it; this is for the sake of ideals."

I've secretly inquired and found out that the Third Company of the entire regiment is the only one without a professional sniper. If I transfer to the Third Company, I'll definitely be promoted to sergeant, and maybe even earlier.

Unlike in the Steel Seventh Company, where there were too many good soldiers and the competition was too fierce.

Especially my brother, he's like a mountain that no one can climb over. I can't surpass him, and I don't want to be overshadowed by him for the rest of my life. Leaving is the best option.

Xu Sanduo felt a pang of sadness upon hearing this. His smile vanished, and he said sullenly, "It's really great to be able to become a sergeant and a sniper."

But I think you should stay in the Seventh Steel Company. Don't forget we came together. It's so good to have you, me, and the leader together."

"Yes, that's the reason, so I'm still in the Steel Seventh Company."

Cheng Cai said with a smile, his words carrying a hidden meaning.

Xu Sanduo didn't understand and laughed.

I smiled happily.

On the other side, Bai Tiejun, the goofball from the third squad, also started playing tricks out of boredom.

They piled up a small mound of earth on the ground and stuck three lit cigarettes on it, saying it was to commemorate the comrades who sacrificed their lives in this battle.

He even knelt down solemnly and prostrated himself, kowtowing sincerely.

Furious, the eliminated contestants could only watch from the sidelines. Wu Liuyi, Gan Xiaoning, and the others, feeling utterly frustrated, rushed over to beat up this clown.

Bai Tiejun immediately begged and pleaded with his family to avoid a severe beating.

After a great struggle, he managed to get up from the ground, dusting himself off and saying in a strange, exaggerated voice, "War is so cruel; even the dead can get up and fight."

The voice just fell.

"Tap~"

A crisp gunshot rang out.

The smoke canister on Bai Tiejun's back started smoking, and he became one of the eliminated privates, causing Wu Liuyi and the others to burst into carefree laughter.

Unlike the eliminated players who were making a ruckus, the others immediately tensed up upon hearing the gunshot.

Cheng Cai no longer cared about bragging or satisfying his vain desires. He quickly put on his hat, picked up his sniper rifle, and entered combat mode.

Xu Sanduo also ran wildly along the trench and returned to his original position.

Yuan Lang, who had shot Bai Tiejun in the distance, had been looking through his sniper scope for a long time but hadn't seen a single decent soldier on the position.

"How did this bunch of lazy, good-for-nothing guys manage to rout the Blues last night?"

Yuan Lang racked his brains but still couldn't figure it out.

Finally, Bai Tiejun dared to climb out of the trench and stand on the position without any cover, doing all sorts of things. Yuan Lang couldn't stand it anymore, and he was also feeling very depressed.

He then simply shot and killed Bai Tiejun to vent his anger and calm down.

To avoid breaking down mentally!
