I'm Dying Laughing

Fan Tian Lei stood where he was and chewed them out for twenty minutes. It was not until Chen Shan Ming arrived with the remaining three men that he stopped, and Chen Shan Ming's expression was none too pleasant either.

"Wolf Head, we couldn't catch him. He got away. His retreat was extremely clean—he's an expert," Chen Shan Ming said after taking a deep breath.

"Why are you telling me? I'm dead now!" Fan Tian Lei's face remained grim.

Chen Shan Ming took another deep breath before saying bluntly, "Everyone withdraw. Return and regroup the unit. Capture this enemy!"

"Yes!" The remaining three men immediately shouted in unison.

The group headed out at once. Although Fan Tian Lei had been eliminated, they could hardly leave him here. He still had to take a helicopter back.

By the time Fan Tian Lei returned to camp, the moment he got out of the vehicle, a figure darted out from the barracks outside, pointed at him, and burst into endless laughter. On closer look, who else could it be but Master Kang?

Fan Tian Lei's face darkened. You were the commander of a main-force elite regiment, a Colonel, yet you had specifically come over to mock me like some child?

Could you be any more childish?!

"Hahaha! Come, come, my good little brother. I was just thinking it was boring to drink alone and wanted someone to keep me company. You're a real pal, coming all the way over to join me. Come on, let's go to the command center and watch those little brats down there do their thing," Master Kang said with a grin, draping an arm around Fan Tian Lei's shoulders.

Fan Tian Lei was utterly speechless, but what could he say at a time like this? If you got taken out on the battlefield, it simply meant you were not good enough. Anything else was empty talk.

"Come on, old brother, I came over to keep you company. That's loyal enough, right? So tell me—who in your Sharpshooter Fourth Company is carrying a Type 10 Rifle Large Caliber Anti-Materiel Sniper Rifle?" Fan Tian Lei rolled his eyes, then immediately put on a smile and asked quickly.

"Haha, won't you find out when the exercise ends? No need to wait until then, either. Come on, come with me to the command center. Watch them perform, and you'll know who it is," Master Kang said, laughing with utter delight.

Didn't you want to take my head? Look at you now—you brought this on yourself and had no choice but to come keep me company.

Leaving aside the thoroughly depressed Fan Tian Lei and Master Kang—both of whom had been eliminated from this exercise already—Jiang Yan Hai had arrived at one of his backup hiding spots.

To be honest, he had not expected all three booby-trap arrays to be triggered. Two of them were chained traps, so they had exploded together, while the remaining one had somehow been triggered as well.

He had still underestimated the booby traps made with the support of the Disguise Technique and Coffin Board Skill. Whether it was their concealment or their calculations of human movement routes, they were absolutely first-rate!

He was not going anywhere today. He would stay here until nightfall before heading out. This was an excellent hiding place; even if enemies passed right by it, they would not spot him, much less with the boost from his powerful Disguise Technique.

With nothing else to do, Jiang Yan Hai simply closed his eyes and began to rest.

In an exercise like this, you had to rest whenever you could. Otherwise, there might not be any time left later.

He Chen Guang and Wang Yan Bing, having completed their initial mission, regrouped with Gong Jian and the others. But once they met up, He Chen Guang noticed that Gong Jian and the others were looking at him strangely.

"Uh, what is it, Instructor?" He Chen Guang asked, puzzled.

"I heard that you guys took out an enemy tank company?" Gong Jian's tone was still rather odd as he said this.

After all, this was an exercise rather than a battlefield, so certain battlefield developments would be reported. Naturally, they were not reported directly to Gong Jian and his men, but to Red Army headquarters. Since the Blue Army's communications interference had been lifted, Red Army headquarters could naturally contact Gong Jian's group as well.

Some of the results were naturally relayed to Gong Jian's side.

"That's right, Instructor. We're impressive, aren't we?" Wang Yan Bing immediately said with a chuckle.

"Then do you know what happened after you withdrew?" Gong Jian asked at once.

"Uh, no. What happened?" He Chen Guang and Wang Yan Bing exchanged a look before asking.

"Fan Tian Lei, the Chief of Staff of the Blue Army Special Forces, went to inspect the sniper position you left behind. Then he was taken out by a single shot. At the same time, seven Special Forces Soldiers were taken out as well." Gong Jian's expression was extraordinarily strange.

"Seriously?!" Wang Yan Bing and He Chen Guang were both stunned. The commander of the Special Forces had been sniped?!

Damn, that was practically legendary! But they knew it definitely had not been them!

And the most important thing was not that the enemy commander had been sniped. The most important thing was that seven Special Forces Soldiers had been taken out alongside him! What kind of concept was that? Including their commander, didn't that make eight people?!

Fan Tian Lei might have been a commander, but he had come from the Special Forces too! And he was an old Special Forces Soldier at that. His combat ability was anything but weak!

"Instructor, who was it?" He Chen Guang immediately asked. After asking, he looked around before continuing, "Was it Jiang Yan Hai?"

"It was him!" Gong Jian nodded, excitement in his voice. "That kid really made a huge contribution! Most importantly, he was acting alone. A twelve-man Special Forces squad was reduced to just four men, who slunk away in disgrace. I heard the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade has issued a kill order—they want to capture that kid alive!"

Wang Yan Bing and He Chen Guang both felt their blood boil at those words, though they were also filled with envy. After all, not everyone had the ability to make a Special Forces Brigade hunt them down!

"This is when we need to give them a little fun—and help take some pressure off Jiang Yan Hai while we're at it!" Gong Jian took a deep breath and said quickly.

"This time, we'll take the initiative and strike. Since they think we don't dare make a move proactively, we'll do the opposite," Gong Jian said in a serious tone.

"Yes!" The others naturally had no objections. He Chen Guang even offered quite a few constructive suggestions.

After picking up He Chen Guang, Gong Jian led the team toward the assembly point again. They still needed to discuss the specifics carefully.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yan Hai narrowed his eyes, somewhat hesitant. He had already learned some of the Blue Army's orders. Since Gong Jian and the others were not around, Jiang Yan Hai could use that military laptop to do a few things.

Although his Information Bomb had been dealt with, that did not prevent Jiang Yan Hai from infiltrating the Blue Army's military system. As long as he did not cause trouble and merely peeked at the Blue Army's orders, the other side would never discover him.

Forget it. Whatever happened, happened. Being eliminated was being eliminated. This exercise was an opportunity to show himself off. Although Jiang Yan Hai still needed ninety-one more kills to complete the mission, the mission had not said there would be any penalty for failing, had it?

Of course, the most important thing was that Jiang Yan Hai had confidence in himself. He had already activated so many cheats—if he still could not pull this off, that would be absurd!
