Chapter 35: The Concept of Special Forces

  Chen Gang stared blankly at Xu Fei as he quickly changed the subject. He didn't quite understand many of Xu Fei's words, but he could make out that Xu Fei required the team to have absolute purity. As someone like him, he could feel the benefits of such a team, so after listening, he hastily nodded in agreement.

  "Right, I've already contacted the people from Hanyang today and maybe tomorrow I'll go discuss business with their manager. You stay at the hotel and wait for news, if there's a need I'll call to notify you, get some rest early tonight!"

  Xu Fei went to the bathroom to take a bath, cleaned up the complicated things of the day and then snuggled into his quilt, comfortably entering dreamland.

  ……

  The next morning, Chen had just drunk the free porridge at the inn and was eating a bun, muttering to Xu Fei.

  "Woe is me... Boss, can you get things done today? I'm so bored staying in the inn... And we still need to investigate the enemy's intelligence, if we drag this out any longer it won't be good."

  "What's wrong, are you tired of staying for a day? It's not clear whether we can see the foreign manager today or not. I think even if we get the goods in hand, it will take at least one or two days to gather intelligence before we can return to the mountain. You'd better stay quietly in the inn and wait, after that you won't have to hide anymore when going elsewhere." Xu Fei said with a faint smile while biting into his steamed bun.

  After breakfast, Xu Fei quietly looked at the newspaper delivered by the inn. In the occupied area, except for a few foreign newspapers that could be sold normally, other newspapers were Japanese Yomiuri Shimbun propaganda stories about the great military power of the Imperial Japanese Army.

  Looking at the news he was already familiar with in the newspaper, Xu Fei did not feel any excitement about the continuous conquests of the Righteous and Brave Army, because he knew that after a few days, the Righteous and Brave Army would be defeated by the devils, except for a part that escaped to the Soviet Union, the remaining tens of thousands of people would gradually perish in the guerrilla war over the years, and a large number of them would be absorbed into the so-called Anti-Japanese Allied Army.

  "Ding ding ding......"

  At around 9:30 in the morning, Xu Fei, who had finished reading the newspaper and was idle, stared at the phone. Just as his eyes were getting a bit sour, the phone finally rang.

  "Hello, I'm Xu Fei." Xu Fei said calmly, suppressing the anxiety in his heart.

  "Mr. Xu, I'm Su Ershou. I've spoken to the manager and he's arranged for you to meet him at noon at Xuan Yi Hotel. I'll be waiting for you at the entrance."

  Xu Fei's face revealed a hint of a smile. As long as he could make contact, this business would have at least a 30% chance of success. He said with a hint of gratitude in his voice:

  "Thank you, Mr. Su, for your help. I will definitely arrive on time at Xuan Yi Wine House at noon."

  "Alright, I'll wait for you wherever I am at that time, see you later!"

  "Crack!"

  Su Shou hung up the phone and Xu Fei gently put down the receiver, smiling as she sat on the sofa.

  "I'll go see the foreign manager at noon, if the negotiation goes well, we can head back in two days. If not, we'll have to keep looking for a new buyer. Later, you come back to the mountain stronghold and train a batch of special troops for me. Don't participate in training ordinary troops anymore, your method is too wasteful with ammo." Xu Fei said seriously to Chen Gang who was staring intently at his phone beside him.

  "Hahaha..."

  Chen Gang smiled foolishly for a moment after wasting several thousand rounds of ammunition in just over 20 days, and then curiously asked:

  "Boss, what kind of soldier is a special forces soldier?"

  "Oh... they are even more formidable than the mountain troops you studied, they not only need to learn mountain warfare, but also be able to fight efficiently in jungles, deserts, and water, and operate various weapons, equipment, communication devices, and can drive planes, tanks, and warships, that is to say, they are all versatile."

  Xu Fei's understanding of special forces was just that, anyway he thought the special forces in movies were like invincible superheroes, so when he said this Chen Gang was shocked and stared blankly.

  "General Chen? He's still being foolish," Xu Fei hastily continued, "This special forces soldier can't be trained in just three to five days, so you don't need to worry. For now, you should continue preparing according to the mountain troops' training methods. As for what kind of person is suitable to enter, that needs to be screened and selected. Your first task after returning will be to take care of this. Our enemies in the short term are almost all fighting with us in the mountains."

  "Ah... boss, you scared me to death! I thought you wanted to quickly train up troops like that, but I don't have the skills for that. However, forming a small mountain warfare team shouldn't be a problem, though..."

  Chen Gang's face showed a somewhat awkward smile as he continued, "However... the cost of weapons and equipment, as well as ammunition and food supplies, is quite high."

  "Haha... don't worry! As long as I can buy suitable military equipment this time, I will purchase enough ammunition for the training of our future special forces. Don't worry about your small team's affairs, just focus on the training and it'll be fine." Xu Fei said with a smile.

  After wiping out that group of devils last time, he also killed the traitor Liu Mao and his three dog legs to gain 16 points of merit. Xu Fei is preparing to exchange them all for bullets, which is 1.6 million rounds. Even if Chen Yang consumes a lot, it's not possible for a small squad to consume so much ammunition, right?

  "Oh!! Good! Good! Boss, with your words, I'm sure I can train a special soldier that you're satisfied with. However, to train qualified special soldiers, we need more equipment. We don't have big cannons, tanks are something only Wu Hongtian and I have seen before, warships are something I've only seen at sea, and as for planes, let's not even mention them. And you said we need to operate communication equipment, that means we'll need a few radios too."

  Chen Gang, upon hearing that ammunition was not a problem, also guaranteed it with a pat on his chest. Just as Xu Fei was worried about this guy's confident words, Chen Gang's next sentence made Xu Fei break out in cold sweat.

  The troops in Qingyun Village were only a few dozen, and the guns and ammunition were not many either. When it came to training special forces, Chen Gang was already thinking about planes, artillery, tanks, and warships. Xu Fei patted his own forehead and sighed with a bitter smile, now even if they got a warship, where would they put it? Who would operate it?

  After taking a look, Chen Ge's heart was filled with joy and his mind was rotten. Xu Fei only then understood that this guy's appearance and inner heart were completely not made from the same mold.

  "Alright! We'll have planes, cannons, tanks and warships. If we can't buy them, the devils will have them, and when the time comes, we'll just go steal or rob them! I don't believe these things can't be obtained. However, once we get those equipment, you little brat must train a qualified special forces team for me." Xu Fei gritted his teeth and said resentfully.

  "I guarantee completion of the task!"

  Chen Gang suddenly collected the smile on his face and stood upright in front of Xu Fei, saying in a low voice.
