Chapter 11: The Thunder King (Part 2)

  Not to mention Zhang Hang didn't believe it, even the two team captains watching on screen widened their eyes, and their brains short-circuited in an instant.

  "You won."

  After finding a tiny battery smaller than a fingernail clip on the scene, Zhang Hang finally figured out that this was an undismantlable landmine. As long as you don't try to dismantle it, it will never explode.

  "You actually managed to create such a bomb, good job!"

  Lin Gensheng won! The crowd exerted their utmost strength, squeezing out all the air in their chests and shouting towards the sky in unison.

  Not easy, really not easy, Zhang Hang, the most abnormal guy in history, finally admitted it himself: Lost!

  "But don't be too proud of yourself, next month on this day we'll have another match. If you can walk out of this forest in one piece within a day, then you win."

  I accept your challenge.

  "When the time comes, whoever wins will be the big brother."

  "It's settled then!"

  Snap

  Two pairs of hands clasped together, eyes locked in a heroic gaze, anyone could see that regardless of the outcome, they had already become true brothers!

  Zhang Hang admired Lin Gensheng's self-made landmine very much, and Lin Gensheng was also very impressed with Zhang Hang's ability to get out of the forest in such a short time. To know that under the same conditions, breaking through the minefield is much harder than laying it.

  So when a large group of comrades gathered together to celebrate for him, his mind had already flown to the competition a month later, really looking forward to that day!

  Ouyang Qiushui was warmly wiping the black dust off Zhang Hang's body, and Zhang Hang returned with his whole body looking like a black-faced package, which really made her stomach ache for two minutes.

  Zhang Hang saw her beautiful face desperately holding back laughter, while receiving Ouyang Qiushi's gentle comfort. He opened his mouth and said: "If you want to laugh, just laugh out loud, don't hold it in too hard!"

  Lin Gen Sheng, you little brat, wait for me! I'll be back in this arena next month and I'll make it double or nothing, I swear! Zhang Hang made a firm decision.

  "Alright, winning or losing is a common thing in the military, don't think about it too much, get some rest early, you still have new subjects to practice tomorrow." Ou Yang Qiushui stopped laughing and said considerately.

  Today Zhang Hang is going to participate in a new subject, sniping, which is the most mysterious and profound subject in the shooting field.

  Originally, team members who had been training for more than three years and had excellent shooting skills were to participate. This time, in order to cultivate talent, we made an exception and selected ten team members with outstanding shooting skills and comprehensive quality from this batch of students as the objects of cultivation.

  Due to Zhang Hangtian's innate double pupils, his eyesight is extremely good, and with his 100% hit rate, he is simply a naturally born super ace sniper.

  Zhang Hang was originally not very interested in the profession of sniper, and in his mind, a sniper was just hiding in the dark to shoot cold guns, which was not decent enough.

  But now I have a comprehensive understanding of it after really getting in touch with sniping.

  Sniping is not only a mysterious profession but also has high requirements for the shooter, and it's even more difficult to become an excellent sniper.

  From choosing terrain to ambush, to locking onto the target, and finally hitting the target. In between, it is necessary to effectively protect oneself from being discovered by the enemy, while comprehensively judging the position of the enemy or the enemy sniper, and considering the factors of temperature, wind speed, and weather on the bullet's impact, striving for a one-shot kill.

  Now Zhang Hang has started to like it a bit. When Yang Bo told him to go and be the super ace sniper, Zhang Hang was extremely excited.

  A sniper's normal shooting distance is around 850 meters, equipped with a precise optical telescope, a sniper who can shoot targets at around 2,000 meters is already called an excellent first-class sniper, which is also the limit of ordinary people.

  But Zhang Hang was different. With his innate talent and precise optical telescope, he could snipe any target within three thousand meters.

  One day, when he was old and grey, he was still the object of admiration for his juniors: the extreme sniper created by him!

  Just thinking about it gets him especially excited!

  And now Zhang Hang still has to learn the most basic things about sniping.

  Before I knew it, another month has passed.

  Today is also the day when Zhang Hang and Lin Genshen will have another showdown.

  Zhang Hang only took six ordinary landmines in his hands and walked into the woods under everyone's gaze. Forty minutes later, Zhang Hang walked out of the forest and came to Lin Gensheng: "I only buried six, can you find them?"

  "Alright! I'll try my best!" Lin Gen Sheng nodded at Zhang Hang and slowly entered the forest.

  "It's all over, Lin Gen Sheng is bound to lose! The two team captains sitting in front of the closed-circuit television wiped away their cold sweat and said in a low tone."

  Five minutes later, a loud "boom" sounded, and the first thunderclap rang out.

  "Lin Gen Sheng is so careless!" someone outside shouted.

  At this time, Lin Gen carried a complicated mood and walked to the second thunder. After careful examination by Lin Gen, it was confirmed that this was a well-disguised thunderbolt, which would not be discovered if not carefully examined.

  After selecting the most suitable angle for demining, Lin Gensheng carefully stepped out with his right foot and prepared to squat down to start demining.

  "Got cheated again!"; Zhao Zilong covered his head with both hands, unable to bear looking anymore.

  Another loud "boom" sound was heard in the scene, and Lin Gen Sheng was knocked to the ground.

  If he hadn't witnessed Zhang Heng's entire process of laying out the minefield with his own eyes, Zhao Zilong knew that he wouldn't be able to pass through this minefield safely either.

  Zhang Hang Bolei has surpassed Guilei and become a ghostly thunder.

  Merging with nature, flawless and imperceptible, leaving no room for defense, yet omnipresent, each one a fatal blow!

  It was sniper training that made Zhang Hang realize: The most perfect disguise is to blend into nature!

  Lin Zhongsheng will surely lose!

  Not to mention the crowd outside Lin's house with faces full of disbelief, Lin Gensheng himself was also bewildered.

  False thunder, real pitfalls, seamless heavenly clothes!

  What a terrible trick! What a frightening disguise! It's actually untraceable!

  Lin Gensheng scrambled up from the ground, a thread of fierce excitement flashing in his eyes. Awesome!

  Walk slower, look more carefully.

  Lin Gen Sheng knew that the remaining landmines must be in places he didn't expect, waiting for him. As long as he could find these places, he would be able to find the remaining landmines through reverse thinking.

  After all, Zhang Hang's time was limited and it was impossible to lay every landmine perfectly, so an hour later, under Ling Gen Sheng's reverse thinking, with a loud "boom" sound, Ling Gen Sheng emerged from the forest with three landmines in hand, his face covered in dirt and looking disheveled.

  Three in a row!

  Without paying attention to the stunned expressions of the crowd, Lin Gen walked straight up to Zhang Hang and said: "Old Big Brother, you won!"

  "No, we're even, brother!" Zhang Hang said with a smile.

  "I really don't know how you did it, but you've done a great job!"

  "Melt into nature, leaving no trace! I should thank you for taking care of me, otherwise I wouldn't have understood this truth."

  "With your intelligence, this is also an inevitable thing."

  "Look, two grown men doing this, twisting and turning without being embarrassed."

  Seeing Zhang Hang's fierce gaze, the old brother who spoke up swallowed his last two words "disgusting".

  He is not afraid of Zhang Hang, but he is afraid of Lin Gensheng - the one who accidentally blew up a set of equipment in class and dared to argue with the instructor.

  He didn't want to step on a micro-landmine with his bare feet when getting out of bed and putting on shoes the next day, it was unbearable to spend the whole day in fear, only fools would provoke this landmine freak!

  A big group of people saw that there was no show to watch, so they shouted for Zhang Hang to treat them. Not only did he win the game, but also won a good brother, how could he not treat them?

  Men, once excited, become arrogant and a large group of people drink excessively. Then, on that quiet night, the calm sky was filled with the loud roar of the instructor: "Run until all the alcohol in your body is gone!"

  Two years later.

  Ouyang Qiushui, Liu Jie and Zhao Ping, three female team members were left to work in the camp hospital; thirty-six wounded soldiers who recovered but could not reach their best condition were sent to local troops; another twenty-eight whose overall performance did not meet the standards were also sent to local troops.

  The remaining 233 team members officially joined the Shenlong Mechanized Division. The top thirty overall scorers were awarded the Dragon Badge.

  Report!

  Come in.

  "Principal, these are the top ten students in each subject's overall score this year." Zhao Zilong handed a file to Deng Xiao.

  Gently closing the file, Deng Xiao smiled: "Zi Long, you've done a great job. In just two years, you've turned a group of new recruits into a pack of sharp-toothed wolves! With another two years to go, what do you plan to do?

  "They are now just a group of young wolves with only physical strength, and will never become real wolves without going through bloody killings!"

  "In the following first year, they will be taught practical battlefield skills, simply put, how to survive on the battlefield to the greatest extent: how to form a perfect offensive or defensive system in the shortest time according to the battlefield situation; how to effectively use the terrain of the battlefield to avoid enemy bullets and quickly launch a fatal counterattack against the enemy; when subjected to enemy firepower suppression or blockade, how to organize an effective counterattack and suddenly break through the enemy's firepower blockade, minimizing their own casualties."

  "After finishing the training, they will be divided into groups to practice combat drills, and finally participate in the military exercise next year." Zhao Zilong finished expressing his idea.

  "Not bad, very logical and targeted, just follow your plan and execute it, go ahead." Deng Xiao nodded his head in approval of Zhao Zilong's plan.

  "Also, I think after this exercise is over, my badge should be passed on to the next Dragon King. Zhao Zilong said in a low voice: "I hope he won't let me down!"

  Deng Xiao's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise: "Zi Long, why did you suddenly have this idea? Not bad, Zhang Hang is indeed very excellent, but it's not enough to make you have such an idea. Tell me, what reason made you decide to do so?"

  "Long Wang is the strongest symbol among Chinese active servicemen. He must lead his soldiers to victory over one enemy after another, and there is no such thing as 'winning or losing is a common occurrence in war' for Long Wang - only victory, no defeat! As he spoke, Zhao Zi Long's worried eyes revealed some pain: "From the moment I gave the order to stop pursuing, when I saw brothers who had gone through life and death together die one by one before my eyes, but couldn't avenge them... from that moment on, I was no longer Long Wang. All I could do was bring back other brothers safely, and then pass on everything on the battlefield."

  "Don't be too hard on yourself!"; Similarly, as a soldier, Deng Xiao was also very aware of Zhao Zilong's current feelings.

  "That time the casualties of the troops were not your fault, you have done a good job in bringing back other brothers safely. It's just that the enemy was unexpectedly strong and our strength is no match for theirs. That's why we have this batch of students."

  "While others may view the US Navy SEALs as a benchmark to chase, we are not; instead, we set our own targets, constantly striving to surpass ourselves and push beyond our limits. There is no best, only better! As long as we continue to exceed our own limits, I firmly believe that our military will be invincible in battle and unbeatable in attack! This is the ultimate goal of rebuilding the Dragon Squad!"

  "I understand, Principal. Tomorrow I'll take them to the armory and let them choose their own weapons. Then, I'll arrange a month-long execution of death row prisoners for them to hone their nerves and get through the first-time killer adaptation period ahead of time!" Zhao Zilong said in a low voice.

  "Alright!"; As for Zhao Zilong's arrangement, Deng Shu had always been at ease.
