Chapter 0001: Selection

  "Bang" "Bang" "Bang"......

  Ten shots in a row, every shot hit the bullseye.

  The warrior who shot with a gun was named Xin Yuan, a special police officer, who had been in the army for less than five months and had excellent results in every assessment.

  "Great! Too good!"

  A big man on the rostrum of the playground stood up and led the applause enthusiastically.

  "This kid is good, a sharpshooter! Commander Geng, I like this kid, what's his name?" The big guy asked while applauding and turning to the SWAT team leader sitting next to him.

  "What? Chosen? You guys don't have such a seedling?" Wu Lian looked at the big guy with a provocative gaze, smiling slyly.

  "Old fellow, stop smiling and joking around. This time we are here under orders from higher-ups to select the best candidates for this mission from your unit. You should know that we're facing a ruthless enemy, so we need top-notch experts, one-on-one, or else there will be casualties during the mission. Do you understand?" The big man's tone was heavy, but he didn't get angry at Geng Lianzhang's provocation. Selecting an outstanding soldier was more important than anything else.

  "Hmph, this is also the case with our superiors. Such a daunting task was given to our 5th company, but they insisted on giving it to your 1st company instead. And yet, your 1st company doesn't even have the capable personnel to handle such a daunting task, so we still have to support you. It's really..." Commander Geng said with a sneer.

  "Cut the crap! Tell me quickly, what's this kid's name?" The big guy was still standing there, his eyes fixed on Xin Yuan who had already finished shooting and returned to the team.

  "What's the hurry? What's the hurry? Should I not give it to you if I should give it to you? Fellow countryman, Lian Chang, can't you spare me one of your fine imported cigarettes?" Geng Lianchang knew that Lian Chang had good cigarettes, and if he didn't take some now, when would he?

  "First tell me what his name is and I'll immediately give him a cigarette!"

  "No! Cigarettes first! Give me cigarettes and I'll tell you." Geng Lianzhang was still being stubborn.

  The big man glanced at Xin Yuan, sat down, and reluctantly pulled out a cigarette from his pocket, just about to light one for Geng Lianzhang.

  Suddenly, a figure flashed before his eyes, and someone had already climbed onto the podium.

  Lian Chang's eyes widened: What a handsome lightness kung fu.

  He took a closer look and it was actually the young man who had just shot ten rings with ten bullets.

  Lian Chang suddenly sprang up with a "ding" sound.

  "Report! I'm volunteering for a special mission!" The young man stepped forward.

  "Xin Yuan, I didn't call your name, what are you doing here? Go back to your team!" Geng Lianzhang also stood up, pretending to be angry.

  "Xin Yuan! Haha! Xin Yuan! Alright, sharpshooter, you're in!" Wang Lianchang laughed and walked out of his seat, approaching Xin Yuan.

  "Smoke! Smoke! Fellow countryman, it doesn't count if you don't speak up!" Geng Lianzhang knew he couldn't stop it anymore.

  "Here! Stingy!" Lian Zhang threw all the cigarettes in his hand to Geng Zhang.

  "Good job, young man! Ten shots and ten rings. I've made my choice, it's you! You're the last one, I've selected enough people!" He turned around and said to Geng Lianzhang, who was narrowing his eyes looking at him and Xin Yuan, "Old fellow, Geng Lianzhang, thank you! For other troops, two people per troop, but for your troop, I only need one, which is this Brother Xin Yuan. That's it, the selection of personnel for Operation 'Flying Fox' to rescue hostages has been completed. Just wait for our good news! Farewell!"

  "Hey, hey, you're taking my soldiers away just like that? Wait a minute! My soldiers, I need to give them some last instructions." Geng Lianzhang jumped down from the stage and blocked Fan Lianzhang.

  "Old fellow, you're really something! I didn't expect your mother-in-law's appearance would produce such a fine soldier!" Luan Lianchang stepped aside.

  Geng Lianchang pulled Xin Yuan to one side of the martial arts arena.

  "Xin Yuan, this time you're representing our 5th Company in this hostage rescue mission. Aren't you dreaming of becoming a hero? This is a great opportunity to become one! Remember, don't tarnish the reputation of our 5th Company! Bring honor to us, and my comrades and I will be waiting for your triumphant return!" Commander Geng patted Xin Yuan's shoulder and said.

  "Company Commander! Don't worry, I, Xin Yuan, will never bring shame to our 5th Company! I will not betray your teachings! Salute!" Xin Yuan gave a salute to Company Commander Geng.

  Geng Lianchang also returned a military salute to Xin Yuan.

  "Orderly! Sound assembly call! Assemble at once!" Commander Geng gave the order.

  The assembly whistle sounds, and all five links gather together.

  Geng Lianchang pulled Xin Yuan's hand and walked up to the main rostrum of the playground.

  "Comrades, Comrade Xin Yuan has been selected by the higher-ups to join the 'Flying Fox' special police team to carry out a special mission. This is an honor for our 5th Company and a glory for us all! Since enlisting, Comrade Xin Yuan has undergone rigorous training and become our company's ace marksman and five-time champion. He is our pride! Let us wish Comrade Xin Yuan success in this mission and may he achieve new victories! Let us bid farewell to Comrade Xin Yuan with warm applause!"

  The whole audience responded with warm applause.

  Lian Chang, who was standing beside him, nodded repeatedly.

  Xin Yuan gave his comrades a standard military salute, and amidst the warm applause, he followed Luan Lianzhang away.

  Xin Yuan and Luan Lianchang boarded a helicopter together, and the plane soared into the blue sky.

  Xin Yuan sat in his chair, gazing down at the earth with immense excitement.

  “……, led countless heroes to bow their heads, unfortunately Qin Huang and Han Wu were slightly inferior in literary talent, Tang Zong and Song Zu were somewhat surpassed, a generation of proud men, Genghis Khan, only knew how to shoot eagles with a bow, all are gone, several elegant figures, look at the present dynasty.”

  Xin Yuan silently recited the poem of the leader, and a majestic aura burst forth from his chest.

  Suddenly, the helicopter shook violently.

  "Turbulence ahead! Hold on!" the pilot shouted.

  There were only three people on the plane: Lianchang Wan, the pilot and Xinyuan.

  "How much farther to our destination?" Lianchang Wang gripped the iron ring under his seat, his body already tossed about by the plane's ups and downs.

  "There are still ten kilometers. However, I found that the mountain mist at the campsite is too thick and the helicopter can't land." The pilot shouted.

  "What's going on? What if we can't land?" Luan Lianchang felt that things were getting serious. He glanced at Xin Yuan, and Xin Yuan's expression left him stunned.

  Xin Yuan was not sitting on a chair, but had both feet hooked onto an iron bar at the top of a helicopter, playing a game of "dangling from the air".

  With such skills, it's really rare in the special police team, Lian Changlong secretly admired.

  The helicopter was still shaking up and down, swaying from side to side, and Xin Yuan's body, which was hanging upside down, was also shaking up and down, swaying from side to side, but it looked like he was moving with the momentum, so it seemed very relaxed.

  "What to do? What to do?" Luan Lianchang was still anxious about the helicopter being unable to land.

  "Jump!" Xinyin suddenly blurted out these words.

  "Xin Yuan, you've only been in the army for less than five months, and you can already parachute?" Captain Luan stared at Xin Yuan with wide eyes.

  Xin Yuan flipped over from an inverted position and sat steadily in his seat.

  "Special police! We can handle anything, otherwise we wouldn't be called special police!" Xinyuan bent down and pulled out a parachute from under the seat. In less than a minute, he had already put it on.

  It was this quick change of clothes that made Lianchang look at him with new eyes.

  "This kid is a good material, fearless in the face of danger, with the quality of a commander. Hmm, this 'Flying Fox' Special Police Team Deputy Captain, no one else but him." Lian Chang had already been thoroughly conquered by Xin Yuan.

  "We've reached our destination, prepare for parachute jump," said the pilot.

  Xin Yuan helped Lian Chang put on his raincoat as quickly as possible.

  "Jump!" Xinyuan had already launched first.

  Xin Yuan was enjoying the thrill of weightlessness.

  Lianchang has already jumped down and the parachute is open.

  Suddenly, at a height of still thirty meters above the ground, Lianchang's parachute suddenly broke in two from the middle, Lianchang lost his center of gravity and floated gently towards the mountain stream.
