Chapter 440: Chapter 440: Luring the Enemy Deeper
Every move of the Canglang Unit was under the surveillance of Li Xiaoyao. In his eyes, Ye Chu was already a dead man; it was just a matter of sooner or later.
Li Xiaoyao said, “Wood, tell everyone what you just saw.”
Wood nodded, facing the curious eyes of the group, and said, “Right over there, I saw a man, but I’m not sure which unit he is from. However, one thing is certain: they have discovered us and probably did so in advance. That person was likely sent by them to scout.”
Jin Gang, confused, asked, “That’s strange. We’ve been here for over six hours, all the footprints around us have been covered by wind and sand. How did they find us?”
Who says a big guy must be careless? Jin Gang had a delicate mind.
“They probably have a team member with reconnaissance ability,” Wood said earnestly. He actually also had that skill, but it was relatively weak. After all, he could only use some footprints and details to judge whether someone was tracking them and trace their movements.
And from the information he had, there indeed were some people who possessed abilities beyond ordinary folks.
Li Xiaoyao sat on the side, listening quietly to their analysis, without interjecting or offering any directive advice.
A bunch of people raised questions and solutions, at last, arriving at a consensus on the strategy against the enemy.
Jin Gang summed up and delegated, “Wood, find a high point for sniping. Elephant, find cover to hide and await commands…”
Orders were issued systematically, and in Li Xiaoyao’s eyes, there was a trace of appreciation.
Those who could join the Long Chi Troop were no ordinary people. This ability to oversee the entire situation and the capacity for strategic deployment was something every member possessed. However, Jin Gang was one of the best.
After the allocation, Jin Gang looked to Li Xiaoyao and asked, “Boss, any further instructions?”
This wasn’t just a question but also a hope for Li Xiaoyao’s approval, as in their hearts, his approval was more important than any reward.
“You’ve done well; I am very satisfied,” the words of Li Xiaoyao inspired everyone deeply.
Jin Gang, beaming with joy, said, “Alright, get ready everyone.”
The group dispersed immediately, each doing what they needed to do.
Meanwhile, Feng Longwei had already led his team here, with Su Qing walking at the forefront, moving lightly, crouching, eyes sharp as an eagle’s.
“Wei Brother, they have gone into hiding,” Su Qing whispered from her spot atop a small sand dune.
Feng Longwei grunted and said, “Everyone stop, snipers take your positions.”
“The snipers are in place,” Ye Chu walked up at this moment, giving Feng Longwei a provocative look, then asked Su Qing, “Which unit is this?”
Su Qing replied, “Long Chi.”
“Long Chi?” Hearing this, everyone was somewhat surprised.
They hadn’t expected to encounter the Long Chi Troop, the very unit they had been yearning to meet, here.
If they had encountered them a few hours earlier, they might have been excited, feeling as if the heavens were favoring them. But now, they weren’t entertaining that thought.
Firstly, the fact that Long Chi Troop was able to continuously defeat Dragon Soul and Long Ren Units indicates that this year, there are certainly several impressive individuals in their unit. Furthermore, Long Chi Troop’s victory over Long Ren must have been at the cost of seizing weapons and ammunition from them.
That is to say, the current Long Chi Troop is not only a force of unknown strength but also a fully armed team.
If we continue to view Long Chi Troop with old perspectives, the consequences will be disastrously grave.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Ye Chu said, “Feng Longwei, Lao Zhou, Ah Hua, you three will lead the charge to draw the enemy’s fire, and you need to take down at least five of their men. Any problems?”
With the overall situation in mind, Ye Chu did not let personal grievances interfere. After all, he also wanted the Canglang Unit to achieve glorious results in the military district competition.
The three nodded, with Feng Longwei coldly stating, “No problem.”
Ye Chu continued to assign tasks, “Da Pao, Xiao Ji… you guys will take positions on both flanks and wait for my command to attack.”
“Blood Rose, you find the most weak-willed among them in the shadows, controlling as many as you can to sow internal discord among them.”
Everything ready, Ye Chu took a deep breath, his eyes surging with a combatative glow, and said, “Action!”
Feng Longwei and his two comrades crossed over the dune, making no effort to conceal themselves as they headed straight into the ambush that Long Chi Troop had already set up.
Both sides had already spotted each other, meaning they were well aware of what was to come; the contest now was one of tactics.
The strategy of Long Chi was to lie in wait and surround their enemy, delivering a surprise attack from an unexpected quarter.
The tactic of Canglang was to use themselves as bait to lure the enemy in deep, then launch a main attack with snipers in coordination with teammates on the flanks, culminating in Ye Chu entering the fray to take down the opposing instructor for a deterrence effect.
If luck was on their side, Blood Rose might even be able to control one of the enemy, effectively giving them an inside man within Long Chi Troop. Imagine Blood Rose manipulating someone to stab their own teammates in the back; such a betrayal would likely drive Long Chi’s soldiers into despair.
Li Xiaoyao stood concealed behind a cactus, his presence completely retracted, blending in like a grain of sand, utterly unnoticeable. It was a peculiar sensation; even standing right in front of him, one could not see him.
As Feng Longwei and his two companions drew closer, Li Xiaoyao watched with a detached gaze, feeling little urge to kill since this man had just saved Cheng Yiyi.@@novelbin@@
Jin Gang and the others hadn’t expected the enemy to send three men to scout, which was somewhat beyond their expectations.
This meant that the enemy must also have an ambush prepared; however, Jin Gang and his crew didn’t worry too much since they were armed. But what they hadn’t considered was that the other party was also armed.
They had taken the weapons from Long Ren, presumptively thinking that the armaments from Long Ren represented all the arms from the military cache. Naturally, Long Ren wouldn’t kindly remind them that those weapons comprised only half of the arsenal. The other half had been taken by Canglang.
This was a significant hidden danger to Long Chi Troop, which Li Xiaoyao was aware of, but had not disclosed to them.
If every risk was forewarned, what would be the point of training?
However, Li Xiaoyao wasn’t going to just watch them get injured by enemy snipers; instead, he hoped that the sudden appearance of the enemy snipers would heighten their vigilance.
The path of the strong was never smooth sailing. The more obstacles and hardships they faced, the more solid their foundation for growth would be.
When Feng Longwei and the other two stepped into Jin Gang and his group’s territory, Jin Gang gave the signal with his eyes. Instantly, five men sprang from beneath the sand, swiftly encircling the trio.
The sudden turn of events caused the atmosphere on the field to freeze instantaneously.
