After hearing this, the two of them no longer had the appetite to eat. There were only four of Zhao Gang's group, and even if they added the two of them, there were only six of them. They didn't want to boost others' morale and destroy their own prestige. Although Li Zhining was arrogant, he did have some real skills. Otherwise, their group of more than ten people would not have ended up in such a situation.
If they can't do it, how can these new recruits who have just arrived at the barracks for a few days do it? No one would believe this job even if they were told to the sky!
The two men stopped moving, and Guo Daming said solemnly, "I don't mean to undermine your confidence, but Li Zhining is quite formidable. Otherwise, we wouldn't be so badly chased by him. Besides, they have more people than us. There are only six of us. We can't fight them head-on. Even if we launch a sneak attack, it's unlikely to be effective."
Lian Yansheng also interjected, "That's right. Don't disbelieve me yet. Li Zhining's appearance is truly deceiving compared to his abilities. No one has a better say on this matter than the two of us."
Hearing this, Liang Yiyi, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly became interested. "Oh? 'Deception'? We arrived late, and there are a lot of rumors about him and Zhang Junjie in the camp. Is there something else here that we don't know?"
Guo Daming glanced at them before saying slowly, "The rumor in the camp is that Zhang Junjie and Li Zhining in the Second Battalion are equally powerful. Add in the resourceful Zhang Yuqi, and they're the Second Battalion's three trump cards. With them, the Second Battalion completely outclasses the other two. But in reality, Zhang Junjie and Zhang Yuqi combined are no match for Li Zhining."
"What? Is he so powerful? Isn't his fighting skills just better than Zhang Junjie's? Where did you hear that?" Zhang Juan asked doubtfully.
Guo Daming smiled helplessly. "I didn't just hear that. We heard it with our own ears and saw it with our own eyes. If I hadn't known his strength, I would have told my comrades to run away the moment we met him. We would have been killed by him by now. How could we still be alive today? Even so, he still shot a few of those who ran slower."
Lian Yansheng also added, "It was because we split up and fled that he was able to distance himself from us. There were seventeen or eighteen of us, and I guess only the three men with the platoon leader and the two of us were left."
Zhang Juan was listening anxiously, "Get to the point, get to the point."
"Okay, let's get to the point. Last November, Lian Yansheng and I were called into the battalion commander's office to inquire about some things in the team. It just so happened that a soldier in our regiment who had become a special forces soldier came back to his old unit to visit the leadership. At that time, several battalion commanders urged him to compete with the top soldiers in our battalions, saying that they wanted to see his strength. So each battalion sent out its strongest person to compete with this special forces soldier. Because the two of us happened to be there, our battalion commander also asked us to go along to broaden our horizons, so we went along." Thinking of what happened that day, Guo Daming sighed.
After a pause, he continued, "The one going from our first battalion is Zheng Hongwei. He used to be the strongest man in our first battalion, but he has been discharged due to injury. The one going from the third battalion is Gao Zhuang, and the one selected from the second battalion is Li Zhining.
Special forces soldiers are special forces soldiers. Their strength is truly unmatched by ordinary people. So naturally, the two men from the first and third battalions lost. But the result was Li Zhining's fault. In just five minutes, Li Zhining knocked this man who had been in the special forces for a year to the ground. Not to mention the special forces soldier, even the three battalion commanders were shocked. You have to know that Zhang Junjie usually lasts ten or eight minutes in his hands. Zhang Junjie is not on the same level as the special forces soldiers. No one present was stupid. Only then did they realize that Li Zhining usually concealed his strength.
"That special forces soldier was definitely unwilling to accept his defeat. The three battalion commanders also wanted to see Li Zhining's true strength, so they suggested a shooting competition. Both of them hit full rings on the 400-meter target and then competed on a moving target. As a result, he was still nearly two seconds faster than the special forces soldier, and made the special forces soldier, who was so excited to return to his old unit to visit his relatives, go away in disgrace." Guo Daming recalled the scene at that time, and the expression on his face was really complicated.
"This proves that he has strong military skills, but it doesn't show that he is outstanding in wisdom and strategy, right?" Zhao Gang interrupted and asked.
"He was able to make a name for himself in the military camp, a place where strength is everything, and make the leaders look at him differently. He was also able to hide his true strength very well. At the same time, he established an opponent of the same level to distract everyone's attention, and then used an arrogant and domineering appearance to hide his true nature. If such a person cannot be called intelligent, then there are really few people who deserve this title. I guess you two have been able to hold on until now because he has shown mercy to you. After all, you two were at the scene when the game was held! Of course, it is also possible that he did not want to expose too much in front of his companions, so he did not rush to make a move. This person is really interesting." Liang Yiyi said with a playful look on his face.
I heard that Li Zhining joined the army later than the others, and he has only been in the army for a little over two years. I didn't expect him to have such strength. It was far beyond the expectations of Zhang Juan and others.
When Guo Daming and the others heard Liang Yiyi's words, they suddenly felt enlightened. No wonder they said that? With Li Zhining's ability, how could he be shaken off by the two of them? So that's what happened. He actually showed mercy!
Jia Dongsheng quickly asked, "What should we do now? It sounds like he's not that easy to deal with."
"What else can we do? Let's pack up quickly and travel overnight. We are not far from the destination anyway, so we won't meet him head-on." Lian Yansheng said urgently.
"Isn't it? If we're too slow and they catch us, that'll be terrible. It'll be too late to regret it then." Guo Daming was almost overwhelmed by the four men's unhurried expressions. He thought to himself, "Fathers, hurry up and run. Every man you save is a man. Four more people at the finish line means a better chance of victory for the battalion. If we don't leave now, it'll be too late. Are you planning to do something to Li Zhining?"
Guo Daming didn't know that the more you fear something, the more likely it will come.
"What do you guys think? Are you going to stay or leave?" Liang Yiyi asked. "Wake up those who are asleep and discuss this together. By the way, Platoon Leader Guo, you guys should fill your stomachs quickly so you don't run too hard later."
Guo Daming finally felt relieved. It seemed they were planning to leave too. There were other people here, presumably the ones who had joined the army with them! But he still felt a little uneasy, as if he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember what it was.
