Chapter 171: Gale Squad
At the same time, Chang Ning inwardly sighed with admiration for how quickly Geng Jihui had adjusted himself. No one who had made a reputation in the military region was just filling a spot.
After training ended, Chang Ning felt it was very necessary to learn from Geng Jihui the skill of quickly adjusting his state, as it might come in handy at any time.
The training ground used to test the combat power of Lone Wolf B Team and Gale Squad covered a very large area, where one could see common room structures on the market, and even uncommon room structures were present.
The central position of the training ground was built to resemble a large ship, of course only half the normal size.
Restoring it to a one-to-one scale would absolutely be a massive project; a large ship’s body alone is over a hundred meters in length, with displacement measured in tens of thousands of tons. Building such a colossal thing entirely in the jungle was obviously unrealistic.
The internal structure of the ship model was also supervised by Gao Zhong Dui to achieve a one-to-one restoration by the engineering soldiers. If a person were blindfolded and brought onto this model without anyone reminding them nearby, they couldn’t distinguish real from fake.
This large ship model was the building Gao Zhong Dui was most proud of in this CQB training ground, striving for total immersion.
Gao Zhong Dui invested huge financial resources, material resources, and effort to build the training ground precisely so that Wolf Fang’s soldiers could conduct onboard CQB training in the future.
Otherwise, always borrowing venues from the East Sea Fleet wasn’t practical and would trouble them to coordinate various places, after all, the naval marines’ comrades also needed the venues.
Gale Squad’s six members and a “volunteer” acting as hostage found by Gao Zhong Dui were together in a certain room in the CQB training ground.
“Number Six, did you spot anyone from Lone Wolf B Team when you went out for reconnaissance?”
Number Six was Gale Squad’s assault specialist, that is, the vanguard, same as Chang Ning’s current position.
However, not everyone had B Team’s luxurious setup; they had three assault specialists alone, and Chang Ning even served in a role like a firefighter, which was also why Gao Zhong Dui was eager to keep Chang Ning.
Chang Ning was simply too useful; not only was his personality stable, his strength was also formidable. Such a versatile special forces soldier, once obtained, was immediate combat power that could be thrown into battle right away.
“Number One, it’s still early; it’s only been a little over three hours since the confrontation started, they won’t arrive this fast. The training ground is over a hundred kilometers from the barracks.”
The speaker was Number Two, Gale Squad’s sniper.
He believed that even if Lone Wolf was Wolf Fang’s ace, their Gale Squad was no worse. Number One’s demeanor of facing a great enemy was extinguishing their own prestige and boosting others’.
Number One ignored Number Two and quietly watched Number Six, waiting for him to report to him.
“Number One, I went around once, and within five kilometers in the forest, I really didn’t find any traces of other people moving.”
After Number Six simply reported his reconnaissance situation in the jungle to the captain, he fell silent; he wasn’t a talkative person.
It seemed the owner of the footprint troubling Geng Jihui had been found; obviously, it was carelessly left by Number Six during his reconnaissance.
If Geng Jihui knew that footprint was just left by Gale’s assault specialist without paying attention, what would he think? He would probably self-criticize for his nerves being too taut, leading to some overreacting to every rustle.
“See, I told you.
No matter how awesome Lone Wolf is, they can’t arrive nearby this fast. Captain, you’re just too nervous.”
After hearing Number Six’s report, Number Two spread his hands, indicating the captain was overly concerned with Lone Wolf’s reputation, appearing somewhat excessive.
He didn’t agree with Number One sending someone out for reconnaissance at this time; it was time-consuming and laborious with no benefit for the upcoming clash with Lone Wolf.
Wouldn’t it be better to use the time to rest and build up energy?
“What if Lone Wolf applies to the barracks for a vehicle?”
Number One silenced the chattering Number Two with just this one sentence, making him go “gah~” like a goose with its neck pinched, unable to speak.
“Even if they can get a car, so what? Everyone knows the road conditions in the forest; if they drive, they’ll definitely get jostled to puking.”
Number Two said stubbornly with his neck stiff; he wouldn’t believe Lone Wolf B Team could arrive this fast.
“This…”
Although Number Two’s attitude was somewhat stubborn, looking like a frog at the bottom of a well unwilling to admit others were better than him, his view gained the comrades’ agreement; even Number One, who still had some doubts, began to waver in his thoughts.
Was Lone Wolf really that formidable?
If it were A Team, they would be convinced; they had all witnessed the strength of Gao Zhong Dui-led Lone Wolf A Team and personally experienced it.
But to say that newly formed B Team, which the two squads hadn’t clashed with, Number One wouldn’t admit Gale couldn’t beat B Team.
“I advise you all to take it seriously, or else you’ll get annihilated by them unnoticed due to carelessness.”
Regarding Number Two’s words in Gale Squad, the volunteer acting as hostage heard it all and, seeing signs of their growing complacency, kindly spoke up to remind them.
The volunteer hadn’t seen Gale Squad’s overall combat power, so he didn’t know, but he did have some understanding of Lone Wolf B Team’s combat power.
Especially the member in B Team codenamed Sha Po Lang, whose skills were very comprehensive, and physical fitness was perverted.
The volunteer once heard Gao Zhong Dui’s evaluation of B Team: except for lacking actual combat experience, everything else was on par with A Team.
To receive such high praise from Gao Zhong Dui’s mouth, B Team’s strength was self-evident.
“What do you know?”
Seeing that the object Gale Squad was to protect seemed to know things they didn’t, Number One immediately stepped forward to ask.
“What can a medic know?”
In Wolf Fang, medics also had combat power; don’t forget, He Da Dui thoughtfully assigned a medic to every tactical squad.
However, Number Two knew this medic they were protecting today was an exception with no combat ability at all, meaning this person couldn’t easily access tactical squad intelligence.
So he didn’t believe this volunteer had intelligence on Lone Wolf B Team; Lone Wolf’s level was very high, even they didn’t know much detailed intelligence on Lone Wolf Commando Unit, so how could the volunteer have anything noteworthy about B Team.
The volunteer was amused to anger by Number Two’s attitude: “Please get the current situation straight before blabbering!
You’re responsible for protecting me, and the other side are the kidnappers; our positions are the same.”
Due to some reasons, the volunteer had participated in B Team’s training and personally witnessed the brutality of B Team’s training.
At this time, the volunteer’s reminder was very valuable, but unfortunately, some people didn’t think so.
“Shut up!”
Number One was annoyed and sternly scolded with a straight face.
Due to clearance reasons, Gao Zhong Dui hadn’t told Number One the importance of this confrontation training, but he still instinctively sensed things weren’t that simple.
