"What's your name, kid? Which division are you from?"

As the Seventh Squad was walking through the streets, an old soldier, about forty years old, suddenly asked a question.

"Oh, my name is Zhong Wu, from the Fourth Platoon, Sixth Battalion, Eighth Regiment, Third Brigade, Second Division. What about you?"

"Zhao Shusheng, 7th Regiment, 2nd Brigade, 7th Division... where are you taking us?"

"I don't know either. Didn't we agree to be free to act?"

Zhao Shusheng grinned. The seventh team was supposed to go to the northwest of the city, but this kid led everyone to run southeast in a daze.

It doesn't matter. There is only one goal, which is to meet a spy from Tianji Pavilion and obtain intelligence on the military deployment of this city.

"Boy, if we want to meet the spies from the Tianji Pavilion, they will have to come looking for us, so don't we have to make some noise?"

Zhong Wu was stunned. "Don't call me kid, I'm already twenty-two years old!"

"Well, boy, are you married?"

"...Not yet. My wife has been saying this for almost four years now. We're from the same village, and if I'm lucky enough to survive this time, we'll get married."

"Aren't you worried that your wife won't be able to wait for you for so long?"

"No, she went back once before this expedition, and she promised to wait for me for five years. What about you? Your children should be grown up now, right?"

Zhao Shusheng had an indescribable look on his face, but at that time everyone's attention was not on this conversation, so no one noticed.

He didn't answer Zhong Wu's question, but smiled and said, "After you get married, will you retire from the army?"

"Not necessarily. We'll see. I joined the army when I was fourteen, and six years have already passed. I've been holding this gun for so long I can't bear to put it down... How many years have you been in the army?"

"As for me...it's been fourteen years!"

Zhong Wu was startled and turned to look at Zhao Shusheng. "Did you participate in the Battle of Huazhong Plain?"

The Battle of Huazhong Plain took place ten years ago. It was the largest battle known as the Battle of Dingding when the Wu Dynasty unified the five kingdoms and established Daxia.

In the military, those who participated in the Battle of Huazhong Plains were true veterans! And they were veterans who absolutely deserved respect!

Such soldiers have usually been promoted, and at the very least they are platoon leaders.

Zhao Shusheng nodded and said one word: "Yeah."

In fact, Zhao Shusheng not only participated in the Battle of Huazhong Plain in the third year of Tiande, he also participated in the Battle of Xiaoheyuan earlier!

The Battle of Xiaoheyuan was a battle between the Divine Sword Army led by Fu Xiaoguan himself and the Wilderness Kingdom in the eleventh year of the Xuanli period!

At that time, he was a new recruit, assigned to Chen Po of the First Army of the Divine Sword Army, and of course he was just a small pawn. But now, he is actually the commander of the Seventh Regiment of the Second Brigade of the Seventh Division!

Peng Cheng took a closer look at the unprepossessing Zhao Shusheng, thinking that he was probably an old soldier who was cunning and treacherous on the battlefield, which was why he had not been valued even after serving as a soldier for fourteen years.

This commando team is composed of soldiers with excellent skills. I don't know how this veteran soldier got selected.

Thinking of this, he stopped talking, feeling somewhat contemptuous of Zhao Shusheng in his heart.

The eight of them quickened their pace, and just as they were about to reach the end of the alley, Zhao Shusheng suddenly said, "Slow down... stop... take cover!"

Zhong Wu was surprised, "What's wrong?"

"There are enemies! Take cover!"

Zhong Wu looked around and then heard hurried footsteps. Looking back, he saw Zhao Shusheng had already opened a door. "Come in!"

The seven people did not hesitate. They hid in this room. Zhao Shusheng closed the door. After a while, the footsteps outside became clearer.

The footsteps were very chaotic and lasted for a full cup of tea before gradually fading away.

"It's a team of about a thousand people," Zhao Shusheng said, wiping his sweat. "There are only eight of us. Be careful. You all look so young. I'm afraid you haven't even married yet, right?"

"We need to destroy the enemy and return alive. Be careful, let's go!"

Zhong Wu couldn't help but look at the old soldier a few more times. The room was dark and he couldn't see clearly, but Zhong Wu felt a little more admiration in his heart.

The eight people from the seventh team were running through the streets again. Zhong Wu was much more careful. He led the seven people to avoid three patrols and finally arrived at the huge building with bright lights that he saw in the air.

Eight people jumped onto a roof and lay on it.

"Is this the place you brought us to?" Zhao Shusheng asked.

"Hmm," Zhong Wu said, looking at the huge building, a hint of excitement on his face. "Didn't Commander Guan give us instructions before we set out? We're completely in the dark about this place, so we can only make our own judgments."

"How do you judge?"

"I think there might be a big fish hiding in here! Think about it, there are only a few lights on in the whole city, so why is this place so bright?"

Peng Wu paused, then analyzed, "We passed through six streets and alleys without hearing any voices from the people. We also entered five houses, but they were all empty. This shows that the city was extremely well prepared. They knew that Daxia was going to bomb the city, so the people must have been relocated elsewhere."

"Everyone, take a look at this building. It's different from the other houses. It has a wide wall, and there are soldiers guarding the wall. It's heavily guarded. This place must be the enemy's command center!"

"Hehe," Zhong Wu grinned and whispered, "What do you think? If we raid this command center and capture all the generals inside, wouldn't that achieve the strategic purpose of this airborne operation?"

Zhao Shusheng also looked at Zhong Wu twice at this moment, and felt that this boy's analysis made a lot of sense.

He took out a telescope and carefully observed the defenses on the city wall. He handed the telescope to Zhong Wu and said, "Look, you are the leader of our seventh team. How do you think we should attack this place?"

Zhong Wu took the telescope and took a look, and he immediately took a breath - there were not only soldiers on duty on the city wall, but also artillery towers, arrow towers and lookouts!

Although this can prove that this place must be an important place, the question is, how can one enter this wall without being noticed?

There are only eight people in the seventh team, but there are almost a hundred people visible on the city wall, and we don’t know what the situation is inside.

Zhong Wu thought for a moment, touched the grappling hook at his waist and the two hand grenades hanging from it, and issued the first order in his life -

"You wait here. I'll go around to the west and find an opening to climb the city wall from the north and launch a surprise attack."

"The enemies in the southwest will definitely be attracted. You should find a gap to climb over the city wall, but don't get involved in the battle!"

"Go in and head straight to that tall building. If you find the commander, then of course you'll capture him. If you can't find him... after half an hour, everyone retreat and gather here!"

Zhao Shusheng thought for a moment and said, "I'll lead the enemy away, and you lead them in."

"I'm the captain, I have the final say!"

Zhao Shusheng grinned. "I'm the commander of the 7th Regiment, 2nd Brigade, 7th Division! Soldiers, follow my orders!"
