Yang Yunhai certainly planned for more than just this. Since he already knew their little girl was on the scene, how could he not make it spectacular to meet their girl?
What kind of grand gift would that be for the girl?
"But isnât the Red Team being too risky?" someone disagreed. "That place is considered a no-manâs land at the border. Doesnât this violate the rules?"
"Which of your rules states that you cannot pass through there?" Mr. Qian, who had been resting with his eyes closed, spoke up.
Everyone was at a loss for words.
It was precisely because it was known that the place was a dangerous no-manâs land that no one considered someone would actually attack from there. This was too risky.
Moreover, the Red Team had given so many false impressions before.
Truly cunning.
"Allâs fair in war," Mr. Qian said.
"But wonât the losses be too great this way? After all, itâs just an exercise; is it worth it?"
"Whatâs wrong with it being an exercise?" Mr. Qian opened his eyes and said seriously, "Every exercise is just like a battlefield. If we donât put forth the effort as if on a battlefield, what meaning does our exercise have?"
The person was made speechless by Mr. Qianâs retort.
Bowed his head with a flushed face.
"And besides, how do you know until the very last moment that the losses will be significant?" Mr. Qian continued.
Young Yang Yunhai is incredibly sharp, treating his soldiers as treasures more than anyone. If he leads them to take a position, it means he has enough confidence to bring them back safely.
So any talk of losses will surely be proven wrong by him soon.
By now, the result of the exercise was already clear in Mr. Qianâs mind, so now he was resting with his eyes closed again.
If he guessed correctly, it shouldnât be too long before this exercise concludes.
However, this result might greatly surprise some people.
The key is whether those people can accept it.
Itâs time for reflection.
Continuing like this, the combat effectiveness of the whole troop is worrisome.
Mr. Qian stood up and walked to the window, looking at the pitch-black sky dotted with stars.
It is also time for reform.
Meanwhile, Yang Yunhai led the team through the no-manâs land.
Itâs called a no-manâs land because the environment here is particularly harsh, with lots of swamps. If someone accidentally falls into one, itâs deadly.
And there are many traps; falling into one would also be a perilous situation.
However, back in Qin City, Yang Yunhai and his group often trained in such swamps, even with added loads.
Now, itâs just carrying some weaponry, so itâs much easier for them than training.
But they still canât afford to be careless.
Wang Jiangjiang joyfully followed next to Yang Yunhai. His greatest admiration was his captain, and he didnât expect to be on a mission together with the captain this time. It was simply too exciting.
"Careful." Just as he was rejoicing, he suddenly heard Yang Yunhaiâs hoarse voice, and then Wang Jiangjiangâs body was pushed aside by Yang Yunhai.
"Captain."
Someone shouted.
It was Peng Daguoâs voice, "Captain, are you okay?"
"What are you doing?" Peng Daguo angrily said to Wang Jiangjiang, "Daydreaming at a time like this, do you realize you could get someone killed?"
"Enough, shut up."
