Chapter 59
"Emergency notice, emergency notice--" The shrill alarm sounded infinitely amplified and prolonged, and a human voice was heard on the radio.
"Everyone please gather at the designated location according to your groups!"
Yun Piancheng woke up from his sleep, quickly dressed, and strode away, leaving only a gust of wind.
The roommates behind him were not willing to be left behind. They packed up quickly and left the room just as Yun Piancheng did.
Today is the early morning of the sixth day of preparation.
After five days of basic training, a two-day battlefield simulation will begin.
The entire C21st Division, totaling 13,000 people, was divided into ten groups, with two groups competing against each other. The group leader was selected as the commander based on the performance of the group members during training and their previous service experience, and the opponent was decided by drawing lots.
Each group is equipped with a psychologist to participate in the simulation and running-in. All officers retreat to the sidelines to monitor the confrontation, and the medical team is on standby at all times to prevent accidents.
As luck would have it, Ji Huai, the leader of Group 7, was assigned a psychologist named He Lai, who happened to run into Yun Piancheng, who was in charge of psychological counseling for Group 3.
"Cheng Yun." He Lai called her from behind Yun Piancheng.
Yun Piancheng turned his head, not stopping: "Hmm?"
"I'm looking forward to the confrontation with you." He Lai smiled.
Yun Piancheng: "I'm not the commander."
"I know." He said.
She quickened her pace and came to Yun Piancheng's side. She didn't continue talking, but just felt Yun Piancheng's movement speed.
Zhu Qing stared blankly from behind for a moment, then nudged Pazila with her elbow. "They're whispering behind our backs again."
"We were whispering behind their backs, too," Patilla replied.
Zhu Qing curled her lips and said, "Psychologists are different. You really know how to coax me."
"Are you feeling better now?" Pazila smiled.
Zhu Qing raised her hand and elbowed him again, smiling, "Yes, yes."
The students from the dormitory came to the assembly point in an orderly manner, each entered their designated group and stood beside the group commander.
To distinguish between the enemy and friendly camps, soldiers on both sides wear armbands of different colors.
Yun Piancheng and Group 3 leader Shi Shuyun nodded and greeted each other briefly.
Shi Shuyun is 32 years old this year. He has completed three tours of duty, all out of personal responsibility and interest. His main job is a Sanda coach.
She looks capable and refreshing, with a posture as straight as a pine tree.
Opposite Group Three is Group Seven, the opponent in this simulated battle. The leader is Ji Huai, who was driven away by Yun Piancheng last night for refusing to go undercover to find out the truth. Standing on his left is He Lai.
Yun Piancheng inexplicably felt that this scene was a bit dazzling and he felt unhappy.
Ji Huai quietly savored Yun Piancheng's emotions, and the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than an energy cannon.
He Lai, who was standing by, noticed the change in Ji Huai's facial expression. He followed Ji Huai's gaze and locked onto Yun Piancheng opposite him, then moved his gaze back to Ji Huai.
He Lai smiled faintly, as if she knew something.
"Ji Huai, you won't give up on us for the sake of love, right?" He Lai didn't hide anything and asked in a low voice so that people behind him couldn't hear.
Ji Huai consciously kept a safe social distance: "We will win."
As a player trained by Yun Piancheng, Ji Huai was eager to win a game to prove himself to Yun Piancheng. Moreover, the commander on the opposite side was not Yun Piancheng, so he had nothing to fear.
Every word of the conversation between Ji Huai and He Lai was transmitted to Yun Piancheng's ears through the micro communication device.
The corners of her mouth rarely rose a pixel, but then quickly fell back.
Yun Piancheng raised his hand to stroke his hair, tucked it behind his ear, and quickly tapped the communicator behind his ear that looked like a small mole twice, turning off real-time communication and leaving only the long-press function to pass on the message.
The breathing sound disappeared in his ears, Ji Huai's body stiffened, and he quickly realized that Yun Piancheng wanted to give him a fair chance to compete.
Being regarded as an opponent by Yun Piancheng, Ji Huai couldn't help but feel a secret sense of excitement in his heart.
"Commander," Yun Piancheng called softly, causing Shi Shuyun to turn his head, "Do you mind if I express my opinions while you are laying out your strategy?"
Ji Huai twice made a fuss about wanting to go to Yun Piancheng for psychological counseling. The whole military camp was in an uproar, and Shi Shuyun did not refuse: "I will accept good suggestions."
"Want to dampen his enthusiasm?" Shi Shuyun tried to hold it in for a long time, but couldn't hold back the cool and aloof persona he had managed to maintain, and couldn't help but make a joke.
"It's not impossible." Yun Pian answered sincerely.
Shi Shuyun suddenly smiled and suggested, "Want to participate in combat operations? How are your physical fitness, fighting skills, and shooting skills?"
"Top-notch." Yun Piancheng said concisely.
"Okay, okay, I like your confidence." Shi Shuyun wanted to laugh out loud, but was afraid that the person opposite him would become suspicious, so he had to hold it back.
"They're just colored powder bullets anyway. They won't do much harm unless they hit the eyes, so just let go!"
Yun Piancheng agreed: "Okay."
But if you really let go, none of the more than a thousand people on the opposite side will be able to escape.
All the personnel were gathered and taken away by an officer to the various strongholds that had been designated in the forest.
The stronghold is fully equipped with all the necessary equipment, including virtual maps, ammunition equipment, communication equipment, sufficient nutrient solution and the number three flag representing the camp.
Several drones roared into the air and circled over the forest, broadcasting real-time information to the officers responsible for monitoring the overall situation.
Another group of officers had already been lurking in the forest, preparing to create difficulties artificially.
At Shi Shuyun's command, his soldiers immediately began to put on their equipment, and Yun Piancheng was no exception.
She had been fighting for many years, and these movements had been ingrained in her bones and blood. She was even faster than Shi Shuyun.
His original intention was just to bring Yun Piancheng along to play, but Shi Shuyun raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, opened the virtual map, and moved closer to Yun Piancheng: "Have you served in the army before? Your speed is much faster than that of a normal military personnel."
"Let's take a look at this topographic map."
The forest is very undulating and contains mountains. The initial base of Group 3 is in an open space at the edge of the forest, surrounded by mountains on both sides, with water behind it and a flat surface in front, facing the initial base of Group 7 from a distance.
The terrain of Group 7's stronghold is different. It is mostly small hills with sparse trees, which is not conducive to concealment and assault.
"Do you know the conditions for winning this time?" Shi Shuyun asked.
"Seize the opponent's flag and control it for five minutes, or eliminate more than half of the opponent, including the commander." Yun Piancheng said.
Shi Shuyun snapped his fingers. "Right, so where do you think we should hide the flag?"
Yun Piancheng scanned the virtual topographic map and said, "Ambush some people on the mountains on both sides. Position the flag at the farthest distance from the combat zone. Dig a pit in the river and bury them."
Almost instantly, Shi Shuyun understood what Yun Piancheng meant. He opened his eyes wide and nodded, "You are so mean."
One is a sleight of hand, the other is to reduce presence.
Shi Shuyun immediately began to make arrangements and immediately the Khan called out to the soldiers: "Is there anyone who is good at swimming?"
He quickly grabbed the lucky guy and sent him to carry out the flag-burying mission, while Shi Shuyun continued to arrange other tasks.
Yun Piancheng did not continue to interrupt, but just made a layout suggestion. Shi Shuyun nodded and took note of it, thinking that the person next to you is indeed scary.
Ji Huai, who was not very good at persuading others, rubbed his hands, compared the knowledge Yun Piancheng had told him with the topographic map one by one, and paused when he was about to make arrangements.
He saw everything Yun Piancheng was talking to that unknown commander. Yun Piancheng must have been planning something bad and was waiting for him to fall into the trap.
Ji Huai rubbed his right index finger and thumb on his chin, deciding to do the opposite.
He Lai, who was strolling around observing the soldiers' emotions, saw this and came over to the virtual topographic map: "What's the problem?"
Ji Huai is an honest boy. He wishes the whole world knew that he was a soldier brought up by Yun Piancheng. He tells He Lai the layout principles that Yun Piancheng told him word for word.
He then made his demands, believing that this approach would definitely be targeted and that he had to innovate.
He Lai laughed when he heard this. Ji Huai was really a limp fellow. He had no idea that ordinary people should not be familiar with tactics to this extent.
"I have an idea," He Lai smiled, "She knows you so well, how could she not know that you want to use other tricks."
As expected, the psychological counselor is good at talking. Ji Huai was completely coaxed by the sentence "She knows you so well" and accepted the second half of the sentence perfectly.
"Let's try a more unconventional approach, Ji Huai. Forget her theories. Just fight however you want. I'll plug the loopholes for you." He said.
Ji Huai nodded, but he was thinking about other questions. He asked directly: "How do you, a psychologist, know so much?"
"She is also a psychological counselor." He Lai answered and continued to smile.
That’s right, it seems reasonable for psychologists to analyze it.
Ji Huai nodded, wrote down the doubts, and prepared to find time to report to Yun Piancheng.
After making the most important plan, Ji Huai's attention returned to the virtual map.
Ji Huai's eyes swept over the soldiers who were ready to go.
He pointed to the two people in front and circled a point on the virtual map with his hand: "Bury the flag under this tree and transplant the shrub on top."
"Everyone else, please rest for a while. Instructions will be sent to your communicators shortly."
Ji Huai’s idea was actually very simple. The stronghold where the three groups were located was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Normally, the three groups would reduce their defensive personnel based on the terrain advantage and focus more on offense.
Therefore, they now have two choices: place a large number of troops on defense, send a small team to launch a surprise attack from behind, and capture the leader first; or just open the city gates without defense and rush through, since the flags are hidden anyway.
Ji Huai was inclined to the latter. He believed that the other side would also hide the flag. In this way, the battle for the flag would become a simple and direct military confrontation.
Moreover, he is very capable, so killing seven people in and out seven times is definitely not a problem for him.
What's more, his emotional perception ability can accurately locate the location of everyone.
It would be almost impossible to sneak attack him.
He Lai stared at Ji Huai and thought for a while, then rejected all the plans and suggested: "Go and seduce her."
Ji Huai:?
Ji Huai suddenly understood.
"Just a joke. You haven't succeeded for so long. This shouldn't work on her." He Lai spread his hands and poured a bucket of cold water on her.
Ji Huai quickly became withdrawn.
He hated He Lai.
"Arrange defense first. It's important to conserve manpower. I'll take a few people to investigate the situation from behind. Wait for me to report back." He said.
"And we have two full days. Based on my previous military service experience, I think it shouldn't be as simple as just two groups fighting each other."
"Hey, don't look so serious, wait for my news."
He Lai called out to two girls she had been observing for a long time, waved to them, and signaled them to follow her.
Ji Huai did not stop him and deployed his troops according to the defense theory given by Yun Piancheng.
After all, Yun Piancheng also told him that if there is no surprise attack, the only way to win is to play it safe.
In addition, we must treat soldiers as human beings and not sacrifice their lives for selfish ends.
He Lai took out three armbands from his equipment, the colors of which were exactly the same blue representing the three groups.
"It's impossible for them to remember all their comrades in such a short time. Let's go, Kachia, Fang Xuan, let's sneak in." He Lai smiled.
"Send back whatever you see. If you can't disguise yourself, run away. It's not real guns anyway, so take as many as you can before you're eliminated."
He Lai took out a gun, put it into the holster, and fixed it on his body, just like an ordinary soldier.
"Let's go, split up."
An hour later.
Yun Piancheng looked at He Lai, who was wearing a blue armband, with an expressionless face.
"Ah!" He Lai was surprised, "What a coincidence!"
Yun Piancheng: "Unfortunately, I'm waiting for you."
