Chapter 10: Requesting Battle (Second Update Today)

  Although the buzzing of mosquitoes occasionally sounded in the warriors' ears, everyone remained motionless, lying in the grass to become a qualified sniper as soon as possible.

  However, the warriors' efforts were rewarded. At a little past noon, a large wild boar appeared at an ambush point without any hesitation and charged into the ambush circle. When this wild boar slowly walked into the warriors' ambush circle, three soldiers almost simultaneously pulled the trigger. A burst of ear-piercing gunfire rang out, and three bullets accurately hit the boar's head. The large wild boar let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground.

  At another ambush point, it turned out to be two wild boars, one after the other, entering the warriors' ambush circle. Of course, without exception, under the almost 100% hit rate of the warriors' guns, these two wild boars were also hit by the warriors and became everyone's meal...

  "It's so heavy, this wild boar weighs over 250 catties... haha." Less than half an hour after the second gunshot, Deputy Squad Leader Jiang Yongwen, who was hiding at the first ambush point, brought two soldiers to carry the heavy wild boar in front of Zhang Hua.

  "Yes... it's really heavy, the three wild boars together weigh over 700 catties, and there are only six of us, how can we carry them back?" Seeing the deputy squad leader bringing back the wild boar, Wu Zijie, the squad leader, also frowned upon seeing the two wild boars on the empty ground.

  "Hehe, what's wrong with that? Let's get the rescue team. Sergeant Wu, you immediately return to the barracks and ask the instructor for a platoon of soldiers to come over. There are still four hours before nightfall, enough time for us to transport these three wild boars back." Zhang Hua patted Wu Zijie's shoulder with a smile.

  "Yes, Commander, I'll go get reinforcements right away..." Wu Zijie said, and then turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.

  "Platoon leader and squad leader went to get reinforcements, shouldn't we do something too? Just now I found out that there are a lot of prey in this forest. Why don't we go hunt some other prey as well? And wild mushrooms... If we can catch a dozen or so wild chickens and add some wild mushrooms, it would be delicious stewed together!" Seeing the disappearing squad leader, Jiang Yongwen immediately revealed his true nature as a hunter, smiling and suggesting.

  "Let me tell you, the bullets you brought today were originally for training purposes. I'll give you two hours to use up all the bullets on your body within two hours. I won't say anything about hitting every shot, but at least hit nine out of ten shots. Two people per group, set off now..." Zhang Hua nodded with a smile.

  "Comrades, the company commander has agreed. Let's go, follow me to hunt, use up all the bullets we brought..." Upon hearing Zhang Hua's words, Jiang Yongwen was excited and loudly commanded, turning around and leading three soldiers to disappear into the dense forest.

  Just as the three of them had walked for less than ten minutes, the mountains and forests began to echo with bursts of gunfire. In less than an hour, four people returned with heavy prey on their backs.

  After statistics, the four people fired a total of 80 bullets. A total of 42 wild chickens and 28 wild rabbits were shot back. Also, a wild boar weighing over 100 kilograms was killed, but due to the limited physical strength of the soldiers, it has not been carried back yet. Overall, it fully met Zhang Hua's standards.

  At last, after more than an hour, Wu Zijie, who had gone to fetch reinforcements, returned. Of course, a squad of soldiers came up with him. When the soldiers saw the pile of game in front of them, they couldn't help cheering up one by one. These soldiers, who hadn't tasted meat for several months, were overjoyed.

  Without Zhang Hua's arrangement, everyone began to carry the prey on the ground in an orderly manner. 36 warriors, plus 5 snipers. Everyone's back was carrying heavy prey. Even Liu Hua's back was carrying a big bag of wild mushrooms he had picked himself, and it took him more than an hour and a half to return to the barracks with everyone else.

  Of course, after returning to the garrison, seeing a pile of spoils, the entire special operations company caused another stir. Fortunately, at this time, only the 10th regiment's headquarters and guard company and special operations company were stationed in Beicun village.

  Facing so many prey, Zhang Hua didn't think of swallowing alone. Two large wild boars jumped out, accompanied by several soldiers, and were carried to the division headquarters of the 10th Division.

  "Commissar, I've come to give you a gift!" Zhang Hua shouted loudly before he even reached the headquarters, having already spotted Commissar Yang Yong standing at the entrance of the command department.

  "It's Zhang Hua, ah.... You want to give me a gift? Forget it, I still remember the other day you begged and pleaded with me to get that heavy machine gun from me... If you have something to say, just say it..." Yang Yong said gruffly, seeing Zhang Hua's smiling face.

  "Squad leader, this time I'm really bringing gifts to the squad headquarters, don't believe me? Look..." Zhang Hua said with a hint of grievance, pointing at the two wild boars behind him.

  "My goodness! Such a big wild boar... Zhang Hua, where did you get it from? Logistics team, quickly, take these two wild boars away, send one to the guard company and leave the rest at the regimental headquarters for a feast..." Seeing the two wild boars in front of him, Yang Yong exclaimed in surprise.

  "Commissar, these two wild boars were brought back by the special operations team during their training in the mountains..." Zhang Hua explained excitedly, seeing the commissar's excitement.

  "Great, just in time, the troops were about to run out of food. Zhang Hua, you'd better confess honestly, it's not like you to be so generous and send two wild boars to the headquarters all at once. Tell me honestly, how many did you keep for yourself..." The battalion commander said with a smile.

  "Captain, you can't do this, I left all the special agent team's rations. However, in order to let the captain taste some freshness, I secretly brought five wild chickens and five wild rabbits for the captain and chief of staff to supplement their bodies... Of course, after discussing with the instructor, we decided to hand over 20 wild chickens and ten wild rabbits to the rescue station, to supplement the wounded. If there were any more, it would really be gone." Zhang Hua said with a bitter smile.

  "Heh heh, I knew you had a private stash. Alright, on behalf of the Chief of Staff and all the wounded soldiers, thank you. However, Zhang Hua, our troops are about to run out of food soon. Your performance today was not bad, so I'm issuing an order: since your special forces unit can obtain these spoils, I've decided to stop providing military rations to the special forces unit. As for your unit's rations, you and Xu Bin will have to figure it out yourselves." The regiment commander said with a smile.

  "Ah, Battalion Commander, if you don't give us military rations, what will the soldiers eat? Unless...you allow the Special Operations Company to go out and find some trouble with the Shanxi Army during our rest period. Who knows, we might even get some military rations as a supplement, and maybe even bring back some good stuff for the Battalion Commander..." Zhang Hua felt a surge of dissatisfaction upon hearing the Battalion Commander's words. But in an instant, he thought of an opportunity to have the Special Operations Company conduct real combat training.

  "Alright, I agree, but don't make too much noise about it. If you need military support at any time, come to the brigade headquarters to find me..." The brigade commander nodded and said in a low voice.

  "Thank you, Captain. I understand. Captain, you can go back to work first, I'll head back now, the instructor still has something to discuss with me." After hearing the captain's words, Zhang Hua felt a surge of excitement and couldn't wait to rush back to the company headquarters.

  "Alright, you can go back now, just remember, don't make too much noise." The team leader nodded in satisfaction.

  "Old Xu, old Xu, good news...good news..." Zhang Hua was excited as soon as he returned to the entrance of Lian's department.

  "Old Zhang, what's the good news? You look so excited... Tell me, is it that our squad leader has given us a new task again?" Instructor Xu Bin asked anxiously, seeing the excitement all over Lianzhang's face.

  "It's almost that time, Old Xu. From tomorrow on, the headquarters will stop supplying us with military rations... We'll have to take care of our own food." Battalion Commander Zhang Hua said with a smile.

  "What, stop issuing military rations? Old Zhang, you're not messing with me, are you... This is also a good thing?" Upon hearing Zhang Hua's words, Xu Bin almost spat out the tea he had just drunk, looking at the excited company commander in front of him in disbelief.

  "Don't be in a hurry, my words aren't finished yet? The battalion commander said that our special operations company should procure its own military rations, but didn't say we can't rob them from the Shanxi Army..." Zhang Hua slowly spoke out the most important sentence.

  "Yes, the battalion commander didn't say it's not allowed to rob... Battalion Commander, I understand now. The battalion commander means to let our special duty company go out and find some trouble with the Shanxi-Suiyuan army, and snatch food from their hands..." The instructor who had understood said excitedly.

  "You finally understand... Old Xu, in that case, I plan to let the scouting team go out and take a look first, feel out the situation of the Jin-Sui army around us. What do you think?" Zhang Hua said with a smile.

  "Old Zhang, go ahead and do what you want. In battle, I'll listen to you." Instructor Xu Bin replied readily.

  "Alright, I'll go and convey the orders now. However, from tomorrow onwards, the troops' training must be tightened up..." Zhang Hua nodded and said.

  "Commander, instructor, are you looking for me because there's a mission?" Soon after, the reconnaissance team leader Luo Huasheng arrived at the special operations company headquarters under the leadership of communications officer Wang Goudan.

  "Yes, Squad Leader Luo... this mission is related to our special forces' next battle. Now, in the special forces squad, apart from me and Instructor Wang, you are the third person to know about this matter." Zhang Hua said solemnly.
