Chapter 3: Who is Destroying

  When the detection plan was reported to the Military Commission, the Chairman immediately decided to use ten military satellites for full-course tracking and detection.

  Detection is divided into two types: single item and comprehensive.

  In the comprehensive test of actual combat to annihilate *** forces in the enemy's rear, a large number of outstanding team members emerged, including Li Baoguo, Nan Weiren and Gao Junping.

  Li Baoguo rushed into *** base at dusk, silently killing nine people, allowing the troops to quickly deploy and expand.

  Later, during the pursuit of the bandit leader Hai Su? Maihe Suomu, Li Baoguo single-handedly took down Hai Su? Maihe Suomu's four bodyguards, allowing the rest of the squad to quickly eliminate the guards and burst into Hai Su? Maihe Suomu's residence, killing the bandit leader.

  Nan Wei Ren, male, 23 years old, sharp and steady, skilled in firearms. He was awarded the title of "Sniper King" by the Special Task Force. This mainly originated from a motivating measure implemented by Yang Wei after taking over the Special Task Force for half a year.

  All "Standards" that can reach a certain item in the "Standard" can apply, and then there is a special task force to organize the test. After passing, they will be awarded the title of "Wang" and enjoy all the treatment of the deputy commander.

  Don't underestimate this "all standards", taking martial arts as an example, not only physical strength and hand-to-hand combat, knife and arrow techniques, but also to be able to engage in combat underwater, on steep cliffs, on trees, on moving vehicles, in high temperatures, in extreme cold, and other conditions, can be awarded the title of "Martial Arts King". Li Baoguo looked at the regulations and gritted his teeth, determined to get the "Martial Arts King" title. He rushed three times before passing.

  Nan'er passed all the assessments at once, including disassembling and assembling various firearms.

  Gao Junping passed the bomb test once and was awarded the title of "Blasting King". Although it was a bit tricky, Gao Junping's ability was also unquestionable. During a demolition of a residential building, due to the difficulty of construction, someone suggested using blasting technology, but the neighboring building was an ancient cultural relic, and the local blasters did not dare to take action, so the date was delayed again and again. The construction party was anxious and finally found out about Liu Qingqing's connection, Yang Jie sent Gao Junping there with the aim of serving the people, and the ancient building just 0.5 meters away from the blasting site didn't even move during the explosion, while the nearby residential building was successfully demolished in a directional blast. It became a legendary story for a time.

  Yang Jie just smiled faintly, he knew this was a piece of cake for Gao Junping.

  Yang Jie graduated from university and then took the postgraduate entrance examination, staying in school all the time, which made Li Ying very unhappy. Liu Qingqing opened a company in Yang Jie's name, and with the technical support of Yang Jie's hacker team, the company operated well. But the profits were basically donated to the hacker team as expenses. Yang Jie said that the country's military expenditure is limited, and the hacker team is at the stage of investment, so let's just support the construction of the country. The old generals of the Military Commission were all very moved when Liu Nanshan told them about it.

  The special task force finally got on the right track under Yang Jiong's leadership. Li Ying was always unhappy, because every time Yang Jiong came to the base, he would come and go in a hurry. Even when executing tasks, he had an attitude of just doing his job. Despite this, Li Ying's heart couldn't calm down, and every time she saw him, she would unconsciously feel happy from the bottom of her heart, always trying to find ways to keep him there, even though she knew it was all in vain.

  Finally, Li Ying made up his mind to give himself a say. After careful planning, he repeatedly studied the lines and drafted a detailed "battle plan". Li Ying repeatedly encouraged himself, this time he must figure out what was in his heart.

  Li Ying is very familiar with all of Yang Wei's favorites, the actions and words that Yang Wei likes about Liu Qingqing, Li Ying has secretly imitated them, and even some of Liu Qingqing's clothes, Li Ying also has.

  Saturday, five o'clock in the afternoon. Li Ying wore a dress that Yang Guang liked the most, making her look even more pure and lovely than she already was.

  Li Ying knew that every time this happened, Yang Jiong would go to the "Xiude Tea Art Museum" near the school to taste tea. On the way, Li Ying was thinking about how embarrassed Yang Jiong would be when he saw her in this outfit, when a ringtone of "The Bird of Longing" sounded, which was the special ringtone set by Li Ying for Yang Jiong. Li Ying opened her phone and heard Yang Jiong's clear voice: "Li Ying, please inform all team members to rush to the Beijing Military Airport immediately, there is an emergency mission, boarding in 15 minutes. Over." He hung up without waiting for Li Ying to speak.

  Li Ying slapped the palm of her hand on the seat in front of her and said with a scowl, "Can't you say something else for once?" However, she quickly dialed the base's duty room phone: "This is Li Ying. Order all personnel to report to the Beijing Suburbs Military Airport within 15 minutes to execute an emergency mission. Over."

  The taxi driver couldn't believe his eyes, the gentle girl in front of him with a beautiful badge was actually a commanding officer, and she looked quite formidable.

  Li Ying got off the taxi and waved her hand to stop a motorcycle policeman, then took out her ID.

  Thirteen minutes later, Li Ying rushed to the military airport, and Yang Wei just got out of a red BMW. A standard southern beauty on the BMW waved gently at Yang Wei, then turned around and drove away. Yang Wei waved his hand in the direction of the car, seeing Li Ying's elegant dress, couldn't help but walk over, laughing: "Beautiful! Shadow sister, what's going on? Got a date? Sorry, it's your dad's orders, don't blame me."

  Li Ying glanced at the distant BMW, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes, and said sourly: "Is it Liu Qingqing? You're really happy, aren't you? Dumping a big mess on me, while you spend your days with beautiful women. I'm going to apply for your return to the team."

  Yang Jie understood Li Ying's concerns, perhaps it was because of this that he took the postgraduate entrance exam and hid behind the scenes to control the special task force. Although Yang Jie worked very hard for the special task force, he had only met with its members a dozen or so times, and each time was in a hurry. Even at the annual meeting held once a year, Yang Jie would often find excuses not to attend, and most of the tasks were arranged by Li Ying. However, Yang Jie was familiar with the strengths of each member of the special task force, even their birthdays. Yang Jie was most familiar with the various "princes".

  At this time, the three deputy captains of the special duty team had arrived with their teams and saw that both captains were present. They hastily stepped forward to salute: "Reporting to Captain, Special Duty Team One (Two/Three) has arrived as ordered, please instruct."

  Yang Jie returned a courtesy, "Boarding!"

  "Yes!" The three quickly ordered their crew members to board the plane.

  Yang Jie quietly pulled Li Ying's sleeve, "Sister Shadow, I..."

  Li Ying stretched out her hand to cover Yang Wei's mouth, fearing that he would say something she didn't want to hear. "Let's carry out the mission!" She said, leading the way onto the plane.

  Yang Jie took over the mission materials from a military commission envoy, and then followed Li Ying onto a military helicopter. The "princes" were actually Yang Jie's handpicked special warfare experts who would serve as temporary bodyguards during combat to protect Li Ying's safety.

  Yang Jie pulled out the task order from the data bag and handed it to Li Ying, who looked at the data in her hand. It turned out that three days ago, a certain artillery unit of our country conducted a test launch of a new missile on an unnamed small mountain 75 kilometers west of Xiaowutai Mountain. According to the preset explosion unit, a crater with a depth of 300 meters would be blasted out on this small mountain with an altitude of less than 500 meters. In the early stage of the experiment, various data showed that it was extremely successful. However, after the explosion, for some unknown reason, a series of explosions were triggered again, and the geomagnetic force produced abnormality, strongly interfering with military satellites, and the ground situation was unclear. An observation camp responsible for ground observation lost contact with more than 300 people. Later, troops were sent to search, but as a result, more than 300 people mysteriously died, their chests pierced without exception, and blood flowed like rivers.

  Attached is a photo, too gruesome to look at.

  Yang Jie knew that this new type of missile was the secret killer called "aircraft carrier nemesis" by the military. Never thought, such a confidential action, was actually destroyed.

  The expert group failed to enter the core area, and the search team only found the bodies of the observation troops.

  The mission of the special task force is to penetrate deep into the explosion core area and investigate the truth of the incident.

  Yang Jie was ordered to lead the troops in person.

  Yang Jie gazed at the "princes" in front of him, although he had only been with them for a short time, but Yang Jie had a kind of intimacy from the heart towards them. It was these "princes" who transformed his military ideas into reality, they embodied the most advanced and scientific military training ideology in today's world, and they themselves became the strongest elite warriors.

  "The King" is Li Ying's nickname for them, because their titles all have the word "Wang", and except for Yang Jue, no one else's account can be bought. Li Ying's joking name was quickly recognized by the special task force members, with both admiring and jealous elements. Yang Jue said it well, not afraid of your jealousy, just afraid you don't dare to be jealous, whoever dares to challenge the "King" will become the new "King".

  Yang Jie thus also had another title, "King of Kings".

  The "princes" had not personally seen Yang Wei take action, but even the most arrogant Li Baoguo did not dare to speak loudly when he first met Yang Wei, and others did not have the intention of trying to provoke him.

  According to Li Baoguo himself: "Looking at the captain being so weak, I'm afraid one punch would destroy him. Where can we find another captain with such great spirit?" This guy may seem rough, but he also understands the profound ideas contained in "The Standards". Therefore, Yang Jie, even as a scholar, is enough to make people look up to him. Not to mention that before Yang Jie took office, Chairman Mao had widely publicized Yang Jie's deeds within the Guard Regiment.

  Li Baoguo was not quite convinced of the propaganda, and had privately asked Li Ying, who smiled and said: "When he comes, just test him like you did with Captain Li Qinhu."

  Li Baoguo also wanted to try him out, but Yang Jiong didn't even hold an inauguration ceremony and instead issued the "Standards", followed by round after round of testing. As soon as the "Standards" were promulgated, Li Baoguo acknowledged Yang Jiong's status in his heart.

  Later, Yang Xiu selected a group of "kings" from the crowd, causing a batch of team members to stand out and stimulating the training spirit of most team members.

  In the mission to hunt down the bandit leader, Yang Jie personally led Li Ying and the others from the Wang group to form a 3A special warfare unit. They fought across four countries, secretly tracking their target for over ten thousand miles, finally completing the military commission's order to kill. Yang Jie did not take personal action, and even Li Ying only used his hypnosis technique briefly, but his command was firm and decisive, with a bold and meticulous style that left a deep impression on every member of the special warfare unit.

  Yang Jie had a good habit, every time he executed a task, he was always fully dressed, no matter how urgent it was, he always managed to dress neatly. Li Ying was now wearing casual clothes, although it was early summer, it was still a bit cold in the high altitude. Yang Jie pulled Li Ying in a bit and walked over to the window seat, asking: "How far is it from our destination?"

  "Pilot loudly said: 'Report to Captain, now flying over the alert troops, Flying Tiger 3 is in contact with the ground, requesting instructions.'"

  "Tell ground troops we need to fly over the nearest area of the incident and ask them to indicate the direction."

  "Report to the captain, ground troops request landing at position D."

  "After landing, the special warfare group advances 50 meters to scout ahead, Team A on the left, Team B on the right, and Team C in the rear, proceeding with caution. Got it?" Yang Ke commanded through the walkie-talkie.

  "I understand."

  Xiao Wutai, formerly known as Snow Mountain, is a refreshing summer resort in northern China. It is located at the intersection of the Yan, Heng, and Taihang mountains, making it the tail of the Yan Mountains, the head of the Heng Mountains, and the source of the Taihang Mountains. The five peaks of Xiao Wutai rise abruptly, with majestic momentum and a grand sight to behold. In the morning mist and evening smoke, the scenery changes instantly, like five bright pearls inlaid on the top of western Beijing.

  This place is known as the roof of northern China. In spring, the mountains are filled with flowers and grasses, and the mountain streams flow down from an altitude of over 2,400 meters, winding and twisting along the way. On the high mountain meadows in July, wildflowers bloom everywhere, including golden lotus flowers and other small flowers competing for beauty. Especially during the peak summer season, the mountains are lush and green, with snow on top, making it even more beautiful.

  The five peaks of Xiao Wutai shine brightly in the sunlight, like a silver hairpin worn by a young woman. Climbing Xiao Wutai Mountain in the summer, one can leave the heat behind and enjoy the coolness along the valley. Looking up, one sees steep cliffs and deep valleys, with mountain springs flowing down from the cliffs like thousands of shimmering jade ribbons, converging into a single stream that rushes down the valley, creating waves and foam, forming millions of white lotus flowers, adding infinite vitality to the quiet mountains.

  It was already morning on the second day.

  Yang Jiejing led the 3A special warfare group of the Special Task Force to climb a mountain, where the forest was dense and lush. Yang Jiejing said to Li Ying who followed him: "I didn't expect that there would be such a well-preserved forest here, the scenery is so beautiful, after completing the task, I must come here to play."

  "Don't forget about me when the time comes, it's been a long time since we had a holiday, you should also make some sacrifices to reward me. Why is it so quiet on this road?"

  "Report to the deputy captain," said Wang Jianfeng, "Communication King", who was following closely behind them. "According to the situation provided by headquarters, if we move forward another dozen meters or so, we will reach the edge of the geomagnetic disturbance, at which point we will lose all contact with headquarters. The original survey team was unable to climb to the summit, and the observation camp's situation was detected by aerial reconnaissance."

  "Are you saying that the people from the observation camp are still there?" Yang Wei asked in surprise.

  "It should be according to intelligence."

  Yang Jie looked up and saw that they were only thirty meters away from the summit. "Notify each team to speed up, gather at the summit!"

  "Yes!"

  Yang Jie and Li Ying no longer spoke, one in front of the other climbing to the summit. Suddenly, Yang Jie's body shook, his face full of surprise, he retreated several steps, stunned, then took a few more steps forward, sat down, and said to Li Ying: "Do you feel it? It seems strange!"

  "Yes." Li Ying also felt something was unusual.

  The team members came up one after another, almost all of them were stunned, because it was a very obvious difference, as if they had suddenly moved from the street to an absolutely quiet room, with clear boundaries like inside and outside the house, as if there was a door that divided the space into two completely different worlds.

  Yang Jie raised his hand to stop the special warfare team, "Notify the teams behind, gather around me!"

  The special warfare team members naturally formed a cordon, surrounding Yang Wei and Li Ying in the middle.

  The team behind came up five minutes later, "Team one, after reaching the top of the peak, occupy the commanding heights in front and seal off possible situations on the opposite side. Team two to the left, team three to the right. Action!"

  If what I felt earlier was just that the surroundings were too quiet, then with every step towards the summit, my heart felt like it was being pressed by an invisible stone, getting heavier and heavier.

  Yang Jie understood that it was a fear born out of self-protection deep within one's heart. Yang Jie looked around, the trees were still lush and green, the creek water was still... but no longer gurgling! The sound was like something had fallen into an ice cave and been frozen. Yang Jie lifted his head to look at "Fighting King" Li Baoguo not far away, he was saying something to Nan Wei Ren, but all that could be seen was his mouth moving, without any sound being heard.

  The air seems to have turned into a solid and become heavy.

  Deathly silence, an oppressive atmosphere of deathly silence. Despite the presence of so many people, the suffocating stillness fills one's heart with fear. This is not ordinary fear, but a kind of helpless and powerless despairing fear, as if there exists an irresistible mysterious power around that can suddenly stretch out its hand from the void air to snatch away people's lives and souls.

  Although it was a clear sky with no clouds in sight, it made people feel as if they had fallen into the dark of night, as if boundless darkness shrouded this land.

  Finally reached the summit, although everyone was extremely fearful, but after all, they were a special forces team that had received super training, and no one lost their sanity. Yang Jie knew that the expert group did not climb to the summit, and even the search team did not climb to the summit, probably because they could not withstand this kind of psychological pressure that was everywhere yet nowhere to be found.

  Yang Jie knew the psychological limit that his teammates could endure, "Every three people form a group, the distance between groups should not exceed three meters, rest for five minutes, and then go down the mountain, be vigilant!"

  The scene of the accident was in a valley below the mountain, originally this small experimental mountain was surrounded by mountains, but now it has become an abnormally terrifying place of death.

  "Li Baoguo, Nan Weiren, you are in charge of protecting Li Shiqing," Yang Jue ordered.

  Li Shi-qing was in charge of recording the entire process because due to the influence of geomagnetic disturbances, only this primitive method could be used to collect information.

  When Yang led the team members out of the forest, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them. The entire personnel of the observation camp stood or sat quietly there, as if an invisible hand had taken away their souls, and they were like puppets under a spell, waiting for the revival of their souls.

  "Look at their faces!" Li Ying's voice came from beside her ear.

  Almost everyone looked up with a face full of surprise, they didn't even have time to lower their heads and look at their own wounds before losing their lives.

  Everyone's chest was pierced by a hole as big as a bowl, without any room for resistance or struggle. Life was instantly taken away, without leaving any leeway.

  "How can they still remain in their original state?" No one asked.

  Yang Jiong waved his hand and walked out first. The air seemed to have turned into water, getting thicker and thicker. Yang Jiong felt that with every step he took, there was something invisible blocking him in front of and behind him, as if there was a wall of air. When he stood still, he couldn't feel anything. As people walked through it, it was like swimming in the water.

  The blood on the ground had long since dried up, turning into a long, dark brown scab. On the pale face that had lost its vitality, lively words were written all over, filled with past beautiful dreams of youth.

  The warriors of the special task force have been tested by war, experienced true life and death, no one vomits, no one is sad, no one mourns, only a sense of heavy responsibility.

  Yang Jie ordered people to search for valuable relics left by the observation camp, including long-stopped observation instruments and dismantled data storage devices.

  Yang Jie looked around and saw that everything was almost ready, then loudly said: "Li Ying!"

  Li Ying was taken aback, Yang Jie had never called her that before, but she still habitually replied loudly: "Yes."

  "I order: Li Ying to lead a team and the entire special warfare unit to escort this batch of materials back to headquarters, directly hand it over to General Li. If there are any attempts to intercept or rob along the way, kill them all. After completing the mission, return to base, implement level 1 combat alert, until further orders. Repeat the order!"

  Next, Li Ying should repeat the order and loudly respond with a guarantee to complete the task.

  But Li Ying loudly said: "I'm not going back!"
