Chapter 106 - 39 Their Target is Me
"Today, you will face your first reconnaissance exercise. Each squad leader, distribute the mission cards to everyone, but they can only be opened at the destination and must not reveal their own mission. This exercise, including wilderness survival and the test of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance abilities, will last three days, pitting experienced soldiers against new recruits. Those who fail to pass this exercise will be eliminated."
Reconnaissance units need to work in coordination with each other, so the requirements for every soldier are very high.
Even after the training is over, an exercise is needed to evaluate and select the final elites.
And this time, only the real strong will remain, while the rabble will be eliminated altogether.
Here, it’s not simply wearing the uniform that makes one a soldier.
Under the national flag, everyone assumed a standard posture, their robust presence standing tall and proud. Chen Zhigang’s eyes swept over them, a sly glint passing through, "Now begin, get armed for the exercise, check your baggage, distribute combat supplies. Everyone, get ready, we leave in ten minutes by vehicle for the war zone, and the exercise will commence."
At that moment, everyone started to collect their supplies, inspect their equipment, and prepare their packs.
Meanwhile, Chen Zhigang explained to the group, "The exercise area runs from elevation 608 to elevation 789, spanning a total of 160 kilometers. The old soldiers form the Blue Army, totaling forty-eight people, while you are the Red Army, comprising thirty-seven individuals. Anyone captured will be eliminated."
Gu Xiaoxi listened, pausing for a moment.
Chen Zhigang’s words were vague, failing to clarify exactly what their mission was during this exercise.
