Chapter 21

  Witnessing the Chinese special forces' miraculous surpassing of themselves, disappearing from their own line of sight. These Israeli special forces living in honor felt extremely humiliated. In those years, the Israeli special forces "Operation Entebbe" wrote a brilliant chapter in global anti-terrorism operations, and many countries included it as a "classic battle example".

  And now they were actually left behind by these Chinese special forces who were at least ten years behind them in terms of equipment, and it was hard not to let them feel shocked.

  They had no choice but to make a desperate comeback.

  And the Chinese special forces are, as they say, "a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger". This is their first time participating in this kind of international competition, who cares about equipment or what means to win. So along the way, they still don't forget to set up a few small traps for them. Actually, this isn't their intention, it's just that after being discriminated against by foreigners all day, their psychology has suffered a huge blow. Before, in books, I only saw praise about China's vast territory, rich resources, large population, and long history, but I didn't expect Chinese people to be looked down upon so much abroad. A nationalist sentiment arose. It seemed like everyone's blood was boiling. Sometimes, a country, a nation, its people need this nationalism, especially for China, which has almost been invaded by all Western countries, the people of this rising nation need it even more.

  Anger is sometimes a driving force, under the drive of this force, they run tirelessly. In their hearts, there is only one conviction: we will make you change your views on Chinese people. Because we are Chinese, we are Chinese soldiers. ?? Special Forces Career 21

  The leaves got thicker and thicker as I walked forward, and my feet sank directly into the knee-deep leaves with every step. The dense thorns also became more and more numerous. The ground was covered with rotten wood and moss, and a slight misstep would result in a bruised nose and swollen face. This place is also where venomous snakes and beasts roam. In Estonia, there is a type of spider called the "Estonian Giant Spider" that has a massive body, and its venom can kill two Pakistani snow leopards.

  Everyone drew out their daggers and cautiously moved forward, with Yuan Shuai also finding some hard bamboo strips to whittle into flying darts for emergencies. Suddenly, Yang Zhongliang felt his foot slip and his body slid down the mountain slope. He instinctively stabbed his dagger into the ground, hoping to stop his slide, but the dry leaves were too thick and the dagger couldn't reach the ground. He had no choice but to stretch out his hand to grab the nearby wild grass to slow down his sliding speed. Unexpectedly, he stopped sliding, but his hand felt painful and itchy - it seemed that this wild grass was poisonous. Yang Zhongliang immediately warned his fellow soldiers who were coming down to pull him: "Be careful, that grass is poisonous, don't touch it!"

  Seeing that Yang Zhongliang was fine, they slowed down their pace. Yang Zhongliang slowly got up and saw that his hand had been scratched, feeling an unbearable itch. He carefully examined the wild grass. The leaves were very hairy, somewhat like old ferns, but the edges had many fine hairs. They looked very hard, it seemed that his hand was scratched by these fine hairs, and toxins might be present in these fine hairs.

  "What are you looking at? Old class monitor, look how focused he is." At this time, Yuan Shuai and the others also arrived.

  "This grass is very toxic, we might be able to use it in our future matches." Yang replied thoughtfully.

  Zhang Qipeng seemed to have thought of something, pulled Yang Zhongliang's hand and took a look, only to find that it had turned purple. Then he carefully examined the wild grass again. After thinking for a moment, he cut off the grass stem with his dagger, dug out the roots, rinsed them clean with water from his canteen, chewed them up in his mouth, and applied them to Yang Zhongliang's hand. Yang Zhongliang felt a cool sensation on his hand, and it seemed that the itching had subsided a bit. He looked at Zhang Qipeng incredulously:

  "How did you know this root can cure leaf poison?"

  "I've lived in the mountains of Guizhou since I was a child, and many old people have said that everything in this world is interdependent. The leaves of poisonous grass are toxic, so it's possible that its roots can be used as an antidote. Let's give it a try."

  Yuan Shuai looked at his watch and said "Time is running out, let's hurry up".

  As they emerged from the forest, a vast expanse of open land lay before them. The grass was thick and the scenery was beautiful, but experience told them that this was a marshy area. They tied themselves together with ropes so that if one person fell into the mud, the others could pull him up.

  The weather in Estonia was unexpectedly bad, it was sunny just now, and suddenly a heavy rain poured down. They were shivering with fear, drenched from head to toe in the wind and rain. As if disaster wasn't enough, a large area of floating mud blocked their path, making it impossible for them to hurry back to their destination. Just when everyone was at a loss, Li Nan discovered a broken tree trunk not far away, which had formed a single-log bridge. Li Nan immediately walked up, but unexpectedly, the tree broke with a loud crack, and Li Nan almost fell into the swamp. Fortunately, his reaction was quick enough. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a rotten log, covered in moss on the surface.

  Time is passing minute by minute and second by second, but the swamp in front of us seems like an insurmountable chasm.

  "Li Nan, can you fly one more time?" Yuan Shuai was now at a loss for what to do.

  "I can do it, but what about you?"

  "As long as you can get past, I'll find a way." Yuan Shuai said.

  "Alright, I'll go then."

  At this time, Israel's special forces also arrived at the edge of the swamp.

  "Wait, we have a way." Li Nang was about to fly over, but Yuan Shuai saw that the Israeli special forces were coming, and it wasn't necessary to take this risk.

  "What's going on?" Everyone stared at him with wide eyes. ?? Special Forces Career 21

  "Don't they have catapults? We asked them 'borrow borrow'."

  "Will they lend it?" Li Nan asked worriedly.

  "What if we borrow with our fists?" Yuan Shuai smiled slyly.

  Li Nan gave him a thumbs up.

  The Israeli special forces saw them wandering around here and knew they were trapped in the swamp, saying with schadenfreude.

  "Why don't you go ahead and wait for us here?"

  "Right, we want to borrow your equipment for a bit." Li Nan's words were full of Jianghu flavor.

  "Are you dreaming? Everyone in the world can lend but not to Chinese people."

  This sentence enraged them. Think about it during World War II, the whole world didn't dare to take in you Jews, only we Chinese helped you, and now you look down on Chinese people like this.

  "Alright, it seems that when dealing with people like you who only know hatred and don't understand gratitude, there's no need to talk about benevolence, morality or ethics. Today, whether you lend or not, you will have to lend." As he spoke, Li Nan rushed forward, knee bent, and pressed his shoulder against the Israeli soldier who was speaking.

  If it weren't for the muddy ground, his knee could have pressed against his head. The Israeli soldier saw this momentum and was so frightened that he hastily retreated. Li Nan could have let him off, but instead, he threw another punch, which the Israeli soldier barely managed to block with all his might. After barely dodging this punch, Li Nan grabbed his clothes and slammed him to the ground with a shoulder throw. Pointing at his nose, he said:

  "You can refuse to lend but you absolutely cannot insult Chinese people."

  Three other Israeli soldiers saw and immediately came to help, but Yuan Shuai and the others were faster, standing beside Li Nan before they arrived. Having just seen Li Nan's skills, now China had more people than them. They would definitely be at a disadvantage in a fight, so with a tone that was both conciliatory and threatening, they said:

  "What you're doing is against the rules of the competition, I'm going to headquarters to file a complaint against you."

  "If you want to complain, go ahead, you can even complain to God. But today I have to get through this swamp first. And let me tell you, if you dare to insult us Chinese people, I'll really send you to God to complain." Li Nan said fiercely.

  Li Nan still pressed down on the Israeli man, and Yuan Shuai continued to say "Now can we borrow your ejector to use?"

  "This is robbery, you are robbers," said the Israeli soldier with a rocket launcher on his back.

  Yuan Shuai leaned in and whispered, "We're just borrowing. Borrowing is different from robbing. When you borrow something, you have to return it. Robbing means you don't have to give it back. If you insist on saying we robbed you, then we won't return it. How about that?"

  The Israeli soldier thought for a moment and had no choice. He looked at his comrade who was still twisting his face under Li Nan's press, and silently put the grenade launcher on the ground.

  Chinese special forces arrived at their destination 20 minutes ahead of schedule. Of course, there were also 50 foreign special forces who did not receive equipment.

  The first round of selection, no, it should be said that after the pre-match warm-up, there were still 196 people left.
