She always thought it was just a drill, a game.
Only at this moment did she truly feel the soul-chilling fear called "war".
"No...no..." She completely broke down, her pride shattered, tears and snot streaming down her face as she pleaded desperately, "Jiang Yan...Commander-in-Chief...I was wrong, I was really wrong...I'll never do it again...Please, don't...don't tell Instructor Lei, don't tell my dad...please..."
If Lei Kuan finds out about this, she'll be kicked out of the hunter training camp without a doubt. If her father, who values honor above all else, finds out, her life is over!
Jiang Yan didn't look at her again; her tear-streaked face made him feel a physical disgust.
He straightened up, his gaze sweeping across the silent soldiers around him with lightning speed, his voice regaining its composure and firmness.
"I know everyone's burning with rage, wanting to charge out and fight the Second Battalion head-on, to prove that the Third Battalion isn't a coward! I, Jiang Yan, want to too!"
"But comrades! Fighting is not about bravado! It's not about reckless courage! Our goal is victory! It's to preserve our Third Battalion's designation, so that all of us can walk out of here with our heads held high!"
"Now, our only hope is that Comrade Su An's surprise attack squad is fighting desperately for us in the heart of the enemy territory!

His words were powerful and resounding.
The morale of the troops, which had just been thrown into disarray by Qiao Lin, was rebuilt under Jiang Yan's iron fist and sincerity. The confusion and wavering in the soldiers' eyes were replaced by a resolute determination to burn their bridges.
"yes!"
"Mission accomplished!"
"Drag them down!"
The roars were deafening, and the "performance" on the battlefield became even more energetic and realistic.
Jiang Yan turned around and walked back to his command position. His face appeared calm, but a fine layer of cold sweat seeped from his forehead.
He was filled with lingering fear.
He picked up his binoculars and looked at the main force of the Second Battalion, which was getting closer and closer and whose figures he could now make out. There was no longer the slightest wavering in his heart.
"Observation post!"
"arrive!"
"Enemy distance!"
"We've entered the 800-meter range!"
Jiang Yan took a deep breath, pressed the call button on the walkie-talkie, and spoke in a calm and firm voice that resonated in the ears of every soldier in the Third Battalion.
"Order! Open fire across the entire front! Give me my performance!"
...
at the same time.
Su Tang's raiding squad, like a group of silent ghosts, had quietly parted the last layer of bushes surrounding the No. 2 Battalion's main camp.
A brightly lit camp, surprisingly poorly defended, suddenly appeared before them...
