Han Ting went to meet President Xia the next day. Since the previous three investors were unwilling to withdraw their investment, President Xia wanted to introduce other projects to Han Ting, but Han Ting was only interested in this project. After much discussion, Han Ting finally invested 100 million yuan to make the crew's budget more generous.
Han Dong is recuperating in the hospital, with He Tong accompanying him 24 hours a day. He Tong received instructions from the captain and kept a close watch on Jiang Xinyan, leaving Jiang Xinyan helpless and angry enough that she started to get pimples on her face.
Zhou Shuping wanted to get rid of He Tong, who was in the way, several times.
He Tong always speaks righteously... Auntie, the captain's business is my business. I will keep my word and will take good care of the captain until he recovers and is discharged from the hospital.
Zhou Shuping was helpless when facing such a young man.
In a blink of an eye, the day of the military exercise arrived. The whole regiment participated and was divided into two camps, the red team and the blue team.
The recruit squad was assigned to the blue camp. The squad leader and Instructor Yang had already repeatedly reminded them of various precautions and asked them to follow the second company.
Although blank bullets were used in this exercise, the guns were real. It was the first time for the recruits to participate in such a large-scale operation with real guns. They were nervous and excited. The boys were thinking about how to make a contribution, show off their power, and have something to brag about in the future.
But when the exercise really started, the second company commander found a place for them to hide and wait, and then he took his men to explore the red side's camp.
"What's going on? You keep us here because you're afraid we'll hold you back?" Deng Zian squatted down and started to complain.
No one responded. That was indeed the case. When they reported to the Second Company, the Second Company Commander had a grumpy look on his face, as if... Why did you send such a burden to me
That’s so hurtful!
"Forget it, let's not be angry. Maybe we can just sit here and win, isn't that good?" Qi Lei was an optimist and comforted.
"I heard that blank bullets hurt a lot when they hit the body." Ye Dansha was scared. She didn't want to be hit by a bullet, so it was safer to hide here.
"The Second Company Captain despises us, but I hope that the entire Second Company will be wiped out and we will be the only one left." Song Haoyu sneered.
Just as he finished speaking, a voice came over the intercom… We are surrounded, the entire company is wiped out. The entire company is wiped out.
Everyone's eyes fell on Song Haoyu.
Song Haoyu was stunned and said, "I really got it right!"
Chen Tao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Yeah, I've never seen a jinx as sharp as yours."
"The Second Company is too cowardly. They all died less than an hour after the exercise started?" Deng Zian was annoyed. The cowardly Second Company actually looked down on them.
"Brother Feng, what should we do now?" Liu Yayi asked Shen Yifeng.
They can't just hide here until the end of the exercise! That would be too pathetic.
When Liu Yayi asked this, everyone looked at Shen Yifeng. Shen Yifeng was the calmest and most prestigious among them.
Shen Yifeng looked at Su Ran who was scratching on the ground with a branch.
"Su Ran, what do you think?"
Su Ran said: "Everyone, turn off the communication first."
"Why?" Ye Dansha questioned.
"Didn't you hear that the Second Company was wiped out? The Red Army might be listening to us right now." Su Ran said.
Everyone came to their senses and quickly turned off the intercom.
Su Ran then said, "We definitely can't just wait here. Look, this is the topographic map. This is our camp. The Second Company Captain and his men were heading in this direction just now, but they were ambushed in less than 20 minutes. It's clear that the Red Army has set up a trap here and is waiting for our men to get in. We can't go this way. Let's go this way. This is the direction of the Sixth Company's action. We can go and join them."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard dense gunfire and everyone pricked up their ears to listen.
Su Ran's face darkened a little, the slap in the face came too quickly: "It seems that the Sixth Company has encountered a strong enemy."
"Is it fun to pretend to know something when you don't?" Ye Dansha would not miss any opportunity to mock Su Ran.
Su Ran ignored her sarcasm and said, "The Second Company has been completely wiped out, the Sixth Company is fighting, and the Fourth Company is protecting the headquarters. We can only act on our own. The leader of the Red Team is the Seventh Company Commander. The Seventh Company Commander is very skilled in the art of war, and I think the more heavily defended a place is, the less likely it is that the headquarters will be located there."
"Then where do you think it will be?" Shen Yifeng asked.
Su Ran thought for a moment and pointed to a point on the map: "This."
"No way, this place is very close to the regiment headquarters! And it's the place we've been to before, and we're all familiar with the terrain." Deng Zian thought it was impossible, wouldn't it be possible just by touching it
"I can't be 100% sure, but there's a saying that goes, 'The darkest place is under the lamp.' Think about it, our second and sixth companies are both exploring deeper, who would have thought that the Red Army would set up its headquarters here? It's the most likely possibility because everyone thinks it's impossible." Su Ran said.
She had done her homework before the exercise and was familiar with the map and the enemy commander's style of doing things. Although she might not be able to use them, it was better to be prepared.
"And even if we can't find the Red Team's headquarters, by going in this direction, we can at least delay until we become the Blue Team's last living force. It's considered prestigious if we can survive the longest. Of course, we may also survive by hiding here, but it will be a bit embarrassing." Su Ran said and looked at everyone's opinions.
Although everyone was skeptical of Su Ran's judgment, Su Ran's final statement still made sense. It was safe to go in this direction, and maybe they could survive to the end. If they were lucky enough to find the enemy headquarters, even if they couldn't destroy their headquarters, it would be great to find it. But if they stayed here and did nothing, it would be a shame to live in shame.
"I decided to go here according to Su Ran's suggestion." Shen Yifeng expressed his opinion first.
"I agree." Liu Yayi said.
"I agree too." Qi Lei always follows Brother Feng.
"Then there's nothing more to say. Let's give it a try. Anyway, we won't be the first one to die." Deng Zian also agreed.
Song Haoyu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.
What else could Chen Tao and Ye Dansha say? They acted alone? Impossible.
So everyone moved to the forest where they usually went off-road.
Not long after they walked, Ye Dansha deliberately twisted her foot, sat on the ground and cried out in pain.
"I sprained my ankle."
"Can we still walk?" Shen Yifeng asked.
Ye Dansha pursed her lips and shook her head pitifully.
"Who of you will stay to take care of her?" Shen Yifeng asked.
"No, no, I'll be fine here by myself. I'll find a place to hide. You guys should leave quickly and don't delay the operation." Ye Dansha said tactfully.
Shen Yifeng thought about it and decided that this place was relatively safe, so he said, "Then keep communicating and tell us as soon as there is any situation."
"Okay." Ye Dansha said obediently.
As soon as everyone left, Ye Dansha took out the chocolate from her pocket and started eating it. She didn't want to go with them and it was better to stay here and relax.
