2860 Scheming
āDamn it, theyāre ten minutes ahead of us. We canāt let them arrive before us! Saluk, we need to surpass them.ā
On the helicopter, the SFS border defense soldiers, who were surpassed by the Chinese special forces soldiers, were furious. They couldnāt hide the hatred in their eyes.
The pilot that was sacrificed last time wasnāt a soldier from another unit. He was a soldier from the SFS border defense army. He was a comrade that they all knew.
This time, they were all determined to teach the Chinese soldiers a lesson on behalf of their deceased comrade.
Saluk shook his head. His gaze was sinister as he said coldly, āThe official competition hasnāt started yet. Thereās no need to be too anxious. Iāll make them regret coming to participate in the competition. Iāll also take revenge for our comrade who was sacrificed. Just wait. Brothers, thereās no need to be so anxious. Letās just wait. Victory will belong to us.ā
It was not a big deal for the helicopter to take off ten minutes earlier. They could not teach them a lesson in the air.
He wanted everyone to learn an unforgettable lesson during the competition. He wanted the Chinese soldiers to remember that they were not to be trifled with.
After a while, Saluk revealed a scheming smile and said to his team members, āIām sure that there are other countries that donāt want to see Chinese soldiers more than us. So, donāt be anxious. When we see other countries that donāt like the Chinese soldiersā¦ things will get more interesting then.ā
At noon, all the 12 participating teams from 12 countries finally arrived. However, Saluk didnāt notice any other countries that were hostile to the soldiers from China. He felt that the special forces sent by the Western countriesā¦ were all very polite to the soldiers from China.
The commander-in-chief of the Estonian National Defense Force announced the official start of Eka Assault. Next, he would lead the generals of the five countries to be the spectator regiment for this competition. They would watch the entire competition for five days and four nights. They would witness the abilities of the special forces soldiers from various countries at a close distance.
There were no generals from China who were a part of this. Eka Assault had already been going on for one and a half hours. Major General Yang, who was sitting in his office, was a little nervous when he was handling official business. He couldnāt contact the special forces participating in the competition, so he couldnāt know how they were progressing.
Commander Xiaās call saved Major General Yang. When he picked up the call, he replied, āOkay, Iāll be right there.ā Then, he immediately packed the documents on the table and told the officers outside where he was going. He rushed to the commander-in-chiefās office.
Commander Xia didnāt look for Major General Yang to ask about the situation of the special forces soldiers who went overseas to participate in the competition. Instead, he handed a photo to Major General Yang. āOld Yang, do you remember this person?ā
Major General Yang took the photo and laughed. āWhy do you have this photo? If you hadnāt shown it to me, I really wouldnāt have remembered taking a photo with them.ā
āSo you know him?ā Commander Xia pointed at the young soldier in an old-fashioned military uniform standing behind Major General Yang. āIt was taken 23 years ago. At that time, you were just a platoon leader with the military rank of lieutenant. Heās a senior colonel. You should know him since you took a photo with him.ā
Hearing this, Major General Yang heard something amiss and glanced at Commander Xia. He saw that Commander Xiaās facial expression was solemn, and there was an indescribable coldness in his eyes. He hurriedly stared at the photo and thought about itā¦
