Chapter 39 No Place to Cry

Before the commanders of the Viper Squad and their chief of staff could react, Gong Jian had already lifted the tent flap with one hand.

Upon seeing who had entered, both the commander and chief of staff of the Viper Squad were stunned, and then they both sighed heavily.

After composing themselves, the commander of the Viper Squad was the first to approach Gong Jian. "I didn't expect it, but I, Old Zhang, am the first to be eliminated," he said.

Hearing this, the chief of staff of the Viper Squad stepped forward, as if speaking to Gong Jian, and as if speaking to the commander. "The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead; new people replace the old."

After speaking, the commander and chief of staff of the Viper Squad exchanged a look filled with relief.

Immediately, they left the tent and led their men away from the exercise area.

Because they were the first to be eliminated, their fate was to be reorganized.

There was no time for sadness; the exercise continued.

After Gong Jian and the Sharpshooter Fourth Company annihilated the Viper Squad, every soldier in the Iron Fist Regiment's armbands showed one point scored.

Soon, Gong Jian led his men back to the command center of the Iron Fist Regiment.

As soon as he entered the command tent, Kang Lei's hearty voice rang out, "Gong Jian, you've given us Iron Fist Regiment a great start, a winning opening!"

Saying this, Kang Lei walked to Gong Jian's side and clapped him on the shoulder.

With the Iron Fist Regiment having scored a point first, everyone in the regiment was in high spirits.

Qin Feng, He Chenguang, Wang Yanbing, and Li Erniu, who were once members of the Iron Fist Regiment, also wore smiles on their faces.

Soon, the first day passed in a flash.

Before dawn the next morning, the system's danger warning beeped in Qin Feng's mind.

At the sound of the beep, Qin Feng, who had been drowsy, sprang up from the ground. He also immediately nudged his sleeping companions awake.

They had been on the first half of the night watch, so they were resting at the moment.

However, upon hearing the beep, Qin Feng was the first to wake up.

Before Qin Feng could check the content, Kang Lei walked over.

"Qin Feng, it's your turn to act," Kang Lei said, pointing to the information displayed on the screen. "This is the intelligence received this morning. It shows that there are two corps fighting in a camp one kilometer away from us, and your mission is to ensure they don't stop this duel."

"The reason I'm doing this is simple: these two corps are evenly matched. Without a third party interfering, they might stop fighting. What I want you to do is to stir up trouble and reap the benefits."

As he spoke, Kang Lei's expression became serious. "The strength of these two corps is superior to ours. If we can't eliminate them, then we will be the ones eliminated. Qin Feng, understand?"

"Understood!" Qin Feng responded simply, without making any excessive promises.

Without further ado, Qin Feng led He Chenguang and the others out of the camp.

As soon as they left the camp, Qin Feng followed the direction indicated by the danger warning in his mind.

The distance between them was only one kilometer, so Qin Feng and the others could easily hear the gunshots.

Even if Qin Feng didn't have the danger warning, he could have found the location of the duel by listening to the gunshots.

As Qin Feng and his team got closer to the duel site, the gunshots grew louder. Qin Feng didn't act rashly; instead, he led the Red Cell team and climbed onto a small hill near the two corps.

They all hid in ambush on the hill.

Upon reaching the hill, Qin Feng immediately observed the situation below. As Kang Lei had said, the soldiers from the two corps were engaged in an intense battle.

However, because the two corps were evenly matched, they couldn't tell who was winning or losing for the moment. But it looked like both sides were determined not to give up, and the soldiers of both corps were still fighting.

Seeing this, Qin Feng, who was at a higher position, curved his lips slightly.

This was a perfect opportunity for them to launch a surprise attack!

Qin Feng and his team remained in ambush on the hill, planning to observe the situation first.

After a while, they noticed the gunshots were decreasing.

The reason for the decrease in gunshots was attributed to the commanders and chiefs of staff of the two corps.

Let's rewind the timeline by one minute.

The commanders of the two corps were communicating with each other.

"Old Wu! We've been fighting for so many years, and yet you still can't defeat me, and I can't defeat you."

As soon as the commander of the Left Falcon Corps finished speaking, the commander of the Right Black Wolf Corps immediately replied, "Bah! You... you neighborly Old Wang, what do you mean I can't defeat you? It's just that I haven't let my soldiers fight with all their might. Otherwise, your soldiers would have been wiped out by mine in minutes."

"How could you possibly be here telling me that nonsense about me not being able to defeat you and you not being able to defeat me, hum..."

Although they were bickering, both of them simultaneously ordered their soldiers to stop firing.

After all, what the commander of the Falcon Corps said was true. Their two corps were evenly matched, or to put it simply, they were as good as each other. If they continued fighting, unless they annihilated each other, they would not be able to determine a winner.

But if they annihilated each other, it would truly be making wedding clothes for others.

They couldn't have fought so hard here only to be harvested by a passing corps.

In that case, they would have nowhere to cry.

Furthermore, they had been friends for many years and had a certain level of tacit understanding.

Therefore, they unanimously decided to stop fighting for the time being and meet again next time!

This was precisely why the gunshots were becoming less frequent.

However, the decrease in gunshots was not a good sign for Qin Feng's team.

They hadn't even started anything yet, and the matter was about to conclude?

Seeing this, Qin Feng looked at He Chenguang beside him and immediately said, "Chenguang, add some spice for them. I don't want them to end so soon."

Upon hearing this, He Chenguang immediately took his spotter, Wang Yanbing, and headed towards another sniper position.

In a short while, gunshots rang out.

That's right, the shot was fired by He Chenguang.

However, it was precisely because of this shot that the soldiers of the two corps below mistook it for a shot fired by the enemy.

In an instant, the gunshots below resumed with renewed intensity.

Seeing this scene, Qin Feng looked at Li Erniu, Song Kaifei, and Xu Tianlong, who were still by his side, and immediately ordered, "Continue to observe. If you see them intending to stop fighting, immediately reignite the battle between the two sides."

"Yes!" The remaining three responded in unison.

After giving the order, Qin Feng looked at the two corps below, flashed, and then lurked into the jungle behind them.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
