Chapter 2982
2982 Rushing Out Of The Blockade
“We’ve successfully crossed three blockades and completed the climb. Lieutenant Colonel Saluk, I think we might have surpassed the Chinese soldiers. Look here…” Holding the map, an SFS soldier in charge of reconnaissance laid the map on his backpack. He was very confident and analyzed it seriously. “From the moment we received the competition mission to here, it has been four kilometers. There are a total of three blockades in this area. The terrain is quite complicated, and there are hills on both sides. If you don’t find the correct route, you’ll get lost in this area.
“As for the Chinese soldiers, this is their first time participating in the competition. It’s normal for them to get lost. Lieutenant Colonel, I don’t think we’ve seen any Chinese soldiers yet. They must’ve gotten lost.”
The scout pointed at a certain spot on the map with his brown and black finger. This was indeed the part where it was easiest to get lost. This was because there was an intentional error in the hint. They needed to combine the location, coordinates, and position to find the real route. If they were a little careless, they would end up walking down the mountain. In the end, they would get farther and farther away.
The SFS border defense soldiers almost made a similar mistake, but fortunately, they corrected it in time.
They hadn’t seen the Chinese soldiers for a long time. They felt that the Chinese soldiers must have lost their way. They wouldn’t have the strength to break through the three blockades in two hours.
With China’s strength, it was possible for them to fail in the face of these blockades!
The SFS border defense soldiers still didn’t know that Saluk lost to Ye Jian in the sniping competition. However, with their personalities, even if they knew, they would definitely find excuses like ‘the weather was bad,’ ‘he was too tired,’ or ‘the gun was faulty’ to explain their failure.
This time, Lieutenant Colonel Saluk didn’t agree with the scout’s analysis. He shook his head and said with a dark expression, “No, no, no. They found the control station at around 12 o’clock. With their ability, they’d grit their teeth and persevere after finding out about the next competition course. Just like before, we were all resting, but in order not to be teased, they kept rushing. From 12 o’clock to 6 o’clock in the morning, they should’ve been able to go through seven out of the 11 blockades considering their ability…
“They wouldn’t have gotten lost. The soldiers the country sent are the strongest soldiers in China.”
The country’s strongest soldiers were still so bad… Some SFS border defense soldiers smiled with contempt. They were the strongest in China even though they were so weak. As expected, the Chinese soldiers couldn’t be compared to them.
“They didn’t get lost. They’re definitely moving forward! We can’t stay any longer. We have to continue chasing after them. No matter what, we have to surpass them today! We have to use our strength to tell them not to fight so hard. No matter how hard they fight, they won’t be able to beat us.”
Lieutenant Colonel Saluk gestured for the scout to put away the map. With confidence, he continued to instill in the soldiers that the Chinese participants were very weak!
This was how confidence was passed down.
Lieutenant Colonel Saluk had indeed guessed that the Chinese special forces soldiers were not lost. Instead, they had been moving forward. He had only guessed these two points. The rest… were all wrong!
At 7 am, under Xia Jinyuan’s lead, the Chinese participants broke through the ninth blockade and entered the ‘Parallel Rope Shooting’ competition.
This was a life-or-death competition. The Chinese participants weren’t the first to arrive at the competition venue. In front, the Italian military unit and the American special forces had already arrived, followed by the Estonian special forces.
