Chapter 2 (1)

  "Enduring what can no longer be endured, and then enduring again!"

  Excerpt from "The Devil's Notebook"

  Successfully breaking through Zhao Gongshan, the second company left the main force of the Blue Army behind. Ma Cheng led the whole company to make a concerted effort and almost effortlessly took down the Blue Army's radar station.

  The Blue Army was besieged by the Zhao Gongshan and lost the second company, and also lost the radar station, completely disrupting the deployment of the Blue Army. This made the commander of the Blue Army - the chief of staff of the Wild Wolf Brigade, Jin Cheng, extremely angry.

  Jin Cheng was a young and promising member of the Wild Wolf Squad, having received special training in multiple countries including Israel and Turkey. At just 33 years old, he was promoted to deputy regiment commander and became chief of staff. With his ambitious spirit and confidence, he was ready to make a name for himself and achieve great things.

  Apart from this, Jin Cheng's special warfare ideology is at odds with the current squadron leader, Wan Ba Tian. Wan Ba Tian comes from ground warfare and attaches great importance to maintaining the traditional qualities of special reconnaissance soldiers, advocating for individual single-soldier quality, and having rich experience in night battles, close combat, and raid warfare. These experiences were exchanged for the blood of countless comrades and several silent corpses, making them extremely precious for this unit that has not smelled blood for over 20 years, so they are reluctant to abandon them easily.

  Jin Cheng, although he had not experienced war, was brought up on foreign ink and water, and had in-depth research on the modern special warfare of foreign armies, emphasizing the use of high-tech means in modern special warfare. Since he became the chief of staff, combining the characteristics of foreign military equipment, he has made a series of innovations in the equipment of the Wild Wolf Brigade, successfully improving various technologies such as low-altitude flight over the sea and all-weather parachute landing, and raising the overall combat effectiveness of the Wild Wolf Brigade to a new level. This exercise, although it was a routine comprehensive test for the troops, aimed at testing the training results of the past year, but Jin Cheng, who had always been under the command of Wan Ba Tian, rarely had the opportunity to command the troops alone, and he wanted to compete with Wan Ba Tian in this exercise.

  According to the exercise plan, the personnel and equipment of the Blue Army were set up in accordance with foreign military standards, especially in terms of weaponry, which was far superior to that of the Red Army. Therefore, Jin Cheng had boasted before the exercise that it would not take three days for the exercise to end with a complete victory for the Blue Army. Unexpectedly, just as the exercise began, his carefully planned first move ended in failure.

  Jin Cheng decided to make a comeback, and this comeback must be found on the Second Company, which had just given the Blue Army a loud slap in the face.

  Must annihilate two chains, in order to vent a mouthful of resentment.

  The confrontation exercise of the first phase between the red and blue teams has come to an end, and both sides have entered the wilderness survival training.

  At this time, the second regiment had not eaten anything decent for two days. In the past three days, only four taels of rice and a little salt were issued, now changed to one bread in three days. The necessary salt portion for the human body also had to be figured out by itself.

  The platoon finally went out to find food in groups of ten. Ma Cheng, who had just escaped disaster, regained his confidence and not only did not thank Xiao Hei but also did not ask for his opinion when giving orders to the platoon, completely ignoring this new deputy company commander.

  Ma Cheng had spoken earlier, the food found by each class belongs to each class, whoever can't find any deserves to starve.

  The two leaders of the company, three platoon leaders and a clerk cum signaller, made up a total of seven people, just enough to form a class. Together with each class, they started searching for birds and beasts in the area designated by the directing department.

  The Second Corps deserved to starve, the area where they were searching for food had already been swept clean by the First Corps, not even a single feather was left.

  Ma Cheng immediately ordered each squad to run ahead and search, rather than following behind the first company. The soldiers of each squad dispersed with a loud shout.

  Ma Cheng led a few people from the company to search for food, but after half a day, they still couldn't find anything edible. In the end, they parted ways with Xiao Hei and others. Ma Cheng took three squad leaders to search eastward, while Xiao Hei and Wu Da Fu took the communication officer Zhen Mei Nan into the mountains.

  Xiao Hei and the others climbed over a hill, saw a string of soldiers' communication personnel Xiao Jia squatting in the potato field dug by farmers, happily holding a war shovel to dig up the potatoes that the farmers had not yet dug up.

  The little Jia of Dog Day has a small harvest, and several large potatoes dug up are placed on the side.
