Xia Jinyuan retracted his right hand. He needed to think about how to get Major General Yang to agree.
After standing up and walking around the office for a few minutes, a smile flashed past Xia Jinyuan’s eyes. He called Major General Yang, who was dealing with official matters.
As the new year was approaching, Major General Yang had more things to do.
When he heard Xia Jinyuan’s arrangements, he reprimanded him, “Nonsense. It’s the new year. Do you want to cause trouble?”
After listening to Xia Jinyuan’s analysis, Major General Yang fell silent again. Especially when he heard the sentence, “The oldest person in the team is already 36 years old. We can’t delay any longer.” Major General Yang immediately understood why this young and capable general made such an arrangement.
At the end of the day, it was because there were too few special combatants in the Xueyu unit. It was difficult to ask them to be the best among the best. It was even more difficult to ask everyone to be the king of individual combat.
Major General Yang continued, “We can’t be too hasty. Although they’ve been training in your team for a period of time and met your requirements in all aspects, they’ve never been to a real battlefield. It wasn’t easy to choose these 30 people. They’re far below my expectations of choosing 50 people.
“They haven’t made enough preparations yet. If something happens, a life will be lost. How about this? Give them another half a year. Half a year later, the veteran will bring them on a mission.
“It’s the new year. You’ll have another exercise soon. If there’s nothing important, postpone it. Cooperate with this red and blue exercise first. This is also the first time you’re participating in such a special exercise mission. I hope you can complete this mission successfully.
“You need to have a mission to see blood. If it’s an emergency mission, only veterans like you can do it. We can’t send the new recruits, so they can only be eagles in their nests for the time being.
“Don’t worry. Since I’ve chosen them, I won’t let them stay in the base forever. Half a year. Xia Jinyuan, I’ll give you half a year. After you train them into decent special forces soldiers, I’ll consider letting you lead a team to see blood.”
When Xia Jinyuan heard that Major General Yang’s tone had softened, he raised his eyebrows and sighed as if he was persuaded. “You’re agreeing to let me lead the team to see blood, right? You’re just worried that they won’t be able to come back safe and sound, right?”
“Nonsense! I chose them to go to the battlefield. If I don’t let them see blood, why would I waste my effort?” Major General Yang reprimanded him with a smile. “Don’t cause trouble for me. Do you hear me? We have to be on guard everywhere during festive seasons. If you cause trouble for me, Xia Jinyuan, I’ll personally skin you alive!”
“Don’t worry, I won’t cause trouble for you. How about this? I have another idea… What do you think of it…” Xia Jinyuan, who had laid the groundwork for nearly five minutes, finally said his idea.
After he finished speaking, Major General Yang’s voice came from the other side. When he ended the call, Xia Jinyuan had a deep smile on his face.
It was done easily!
At one o’clock in the afternoon, the 80-kilometer weighted cross-country started from the base. Each one carrying a backpack and holding a rifle, they started the weighted cross-country to the north. Azure Bird led the team and started heading deeper into the forest.
The base of the Xueyu unit was located in the north. It wasn’t far from a forest scenic spot. If you went farther, you could enter the scenic spot. However, the tourists wouldn’t know that there was an unknown special forces team hidden in the depths of the forest..
