Chapter 279 Gao Kai overturns the vinegar jar. On the other side of the swamp, Gao Kai stared blankly as Su Tang hung up the call and neatly put both walkie-talkies into her backpack.
He stood motionless like a wooden stake, listening intently to the entire conversation between Su An and Jiang Yan.
When Gao Kai heard Jiang Yan's last sentence, "Be sure to pay attention to safety," which was clearly tinged with personal concern, his heart skipped a beat.
That wasn't a businesslike instruction between superiors and subordinates.
The fluctuations and hesitation in his tone, that... indescribable feeling, made his heart ache and sting instantly.
A strange sour feeling, like spilled Shanxi aged vinegar, quietly welled up from the bottom of his heart.
It's like discovering a treasure yourself, only to have someone else spy on it.
He knew his thinking was ridiculous. Teacher Su was the class monitor, and Jiang Yan was the commander-in-chief; it was only natural for them to communicate tactics and plan the overall strategy. It was also reasonable for Jiang Yan to care about a class monitor who was about to carry out the most dangerous mission.
But he just couldn't control himself.
The thought of Jiang Yan's handsome and composed face, his prestige among the entire battalion, and then of himself, a mediocre soldier who could only handle a few guns... made Gao Kai feel a chill run down his spine.
All he could do was try harder, almost clumsily, to perform himself.
He strode over to Su Tang, first picking up her water bottle, unscrewing the cap and shaking it to make sure it was full. Then he picked up her modified Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, carefully inspecting the bolt and firing pin, and wiping the scope spotless with his sleeve.
Finally, he picked out his best magazines and respectfully handed them to Su Tang.
He wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. He could only use this clumsy action to prove his value.
Su Tang was looking down at the map, seemingly unaware of his odd behavior. She merely glanced at the magazine he handed her and nodded. "Put it in my bag."
She put away the map, stood up, and her cool gaze swept over the twenty-odd soldiers in front of her.
After that perfect ambush with zero casualties, everyone's faces were filled with excitement and admiration.
"Everyone take a five-minute break, check the equipment, eat the compressed rations and water separately, and conserve your energy."
"Five minutes later, depart. Destination—Second Battalion Headquarters!"
"yes!"
The twenty-odd people responded in unison, their voices filled with barely suppressed excitement and high fighting spirit.
Gao Kai watched Su Tang's slender yet incredibly upright back as he silently stuffed the magazines into her backpack, with only one thought in his mind.
No matter who has designs on him, Gao Kai is Teacher Su's most reliable shield and sharpest spear! That's enough!
at the same time.
The atmosphere inside the command tent of Battalion No. 2 was completely different from the tense and solemn atmosphere of Battalion No. 3.
The place was shrouded in smoke, the pungent smell of "Daqianmen" cigarettes mixed with the men's sweat, making one's head spin.
