The two brothers were joking with each other when Miao Yongyi said, "Zhiheng, this time we dealt with Lu Tianqiao and gave the Shanghai Green Gang a good lesson. Let's see who dares to collude with the Japanese in the future. This is the first time I've taken action in a long time. It's really exhilarating!"
Ning Zhiheng said with a smile, "I knew you called me here because you had something to say. Are you restless and want to go on a field mission?"
Miao Yongyi scratched his head, laughed, and said with an embarrassed smile, "You know me best. To be honest, you know my marksmanship. Back in military school, I was the best in the class. It was you who, I don't know what drug you took, eventually surpassed me."
My combat skills are also top-notch. I have enough real combat experience in the army over the years. In yesterday's anti-traitor operation, I hit the bullseye every time.
How about it? I have the ability to take action, and you know what? Ever since I participated in yesterday's operation, the way my team members talk to me has changed. Before, they were so polite, calling me Team Leader Miao all the time. I know they didn't really respect me and thought I only became their leader because of my connections. But now they really treat me as a comrade-in-arms, and their tone of voice has changed.
To be honest, I really want to go on field missions with Captain Sun and his team. My request isn't high; just don't forget me whenever there's a large-scale operation. Taking me along will always be a help!
Ning Zhiheng knew him very well and knew that with his temperament, it was indeed a bit difficult for him to stay in the Tan Mansion every day.
Miao Yongyi had mentioned wanting to carry out field missions before, but Ning Zhiheng was afraid that something might happen to him during the operation, so he made an excuse to refuse him. But today he brought it up again, so it was really hard to refuse him again, so he had no choice but to nod and agree.
“Alright, since you’re really getting restless, I’ll agree. But let me make it clear first, I’ll only allow you to go on field missions if we’re short-handed. After all, your main task is to guard the important headquarters!” Ning Zhiheng said with a smile.
When Miao Yongyi heard that Ning Zhiheng had finally agreed to his request, he was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.
"That's good, that's good! You have to keep your word!" Miao Yongyi's eyes lit up with joy. Suddenly, he remembered something. "Zhiheng, I heard the team members saying in private that you're the top operative in the Military Intelligence Investigation Department! I know you're a good shot, but your hand-to-hand combat skills have always been just average! With your level, how can you be the top operative? How about it, we have some free time now, shall we give it a try?"
Miao Yongyi was always among the top students at the Army Officer School. He was unmatched in both firearms and hand-to-hand combat and could definitely be called an elite. However, yesterday at the scene of the operation, he personally witnessed Ning Zhiheng using one arm to forcefully pull a car door off, which surprised him greatly.
Ning Zhiheng has a slender build, and although he appears slightly more robust than the average person, he is by no means the type of muscular strongman. Outsiders would never imagine how much power is contained within his body.
Therefore, Miao Yongyi had always believed that his team members were spreading rumors. He knew his brothers' tactical abilities perfectly well. However, Ning Zhiheng's performance yesterday surprised him greatly, and he thought he would have a good match with Ning Zhiheng today to verify whether those rumors were true.
Ning Zhiheng burst into laughter upon hearing his words, knowing that there was no one left in the Military Intelligence Investigation Department headquarters who dared to challenge him one-on-one.
There used to be such a thing, but there definitely isn't anymore. Every time he sparred, he needed four or five skilled fighters to join him in just a short while.
Finally, Ning Zhiheng challenged other experts from headquarters all over the training ground. He challenged every tactical expert in each department. As a result, after that, everyone kept their distance and couldn't be bothered to deal with this human monster.
As for his marksmanship, needless to say, whenever he stepped onto the shooting range, he would be surrounded by onlookers. Whether it was a long gun or a short gun, he would hit the bullseye every time. He was a recognized sharpshooter, so much so that the armory at the shooting range even had his own special gun, which no one dared to use.
Ning Zhiheng was able to become a leading figure among the younger generation of the Military Intelligence Investigation Department because of his meticulous mind, accurate reasoning, and numerous outstanding achievements. His superior tactical ability was also a very important reason, after all, soldiers are accustomed to respecting the strong.
Miao Yongyi's decision to challenge him today surprised him quite a bit, as this hadn't happened in a long time.
Seeing that Ning Zhiheng was just smiling and silent, Miao Yongyi urged, "What? Scared? I told you, back in military school, I always won. Your underlings are so shameless in their flattery!"
Ning Zhiheng was also in high spirits. He stood up straight, rolled up his sleeves, and walked towards the door, saying with a smile as he went, "I always let you have your way before, but you've gotten so arrogant. Well, since I have time today, I'll teach you a lesson, so you won't be so narrow-minded and ignorant!"
"Keep blowing!"
The two men came to the lawn in the yard and stood facing each other. Both of them adopted standard military fighting stances. Ning Zhiheng did not want to win by brute force. In terms of fighting skills, he was far superior to Miao Yongyi.
Just then, the members of the action team responsible for guarding the Tan Mansion saw the two men get into a fighting stance and gathered around.
They had never truly sparred with Miao Yongyi before and didn't know how skilled he was. However, Ning Zhiheng was a formidable figure, and some of the team members were veterans he had brought from Nanjing, so they were certainly aware of his abilities.
