As of last night's latest news, the number of enemy forces is unknown; we only know they are rcenaries, along with so followers who once served at the Golden Triangle.
Their firepower is strong, equipped with sniper rifles, AK47s, and more, with rocket launchers and bombs being their most lethal weapons.
The current distribution map roughly shows that the illegal elents dealing in smuggled materials have been intercepted within our borders, while the rcenaries are continually trying to storm from outside the border to take them out.
In this scenario, border defense warriors centered on the national boundary are facing attacks from both sides. Moreover, even with five Yanhuang Soul squads deployed, intercepting them seems impossible, hinting at the overwhelming strength of these rcenaries.
Combat helicopters can't be used; the enemy snipers are extrely skilled and could pierce the fuel tank, causing an explosion if the helicopters approach.
"Xiaofan, what's the plan of action? We have about an hour before we arrive," Xiaolei turned to ask Xiaofan from the cockpit.
"Huh? So soon?" Xiaofan expressed slight surprise.
"Yes, this is an improved military aircraft, with propulsion devices installed below and at the rear. Once it ascends to a certain height, it will accelerate, reaching the border from the base in just over two hours," Xiaolei explained.
"Impressive," Xiaofan praised. Yet these are conditions reported last night, whether there'll be changes today remains unknown. Formulating a plan imdiately is rather rushed. "Xiaolei, can you reach soone on the border? I want to first understand the current situation."
"We'll have to wait a bit; we're too far right now to receive a wireless signal. Once the channel is connected, I'll inform you," Xiaolei replied slowly.
After a brief exchange, Xiaofan glanced at the others.
Ren Ling was sleeping, holding soone's arm, and Shen Zuimo sat quietly with closed eyes, his thoughts unknown.
Ren Ying was polishing the military knife recently acquired, seemingly quite fond of it.
anwhile, Li Kuo was fiddling with a drone, assisted by Han Shengjun. They are an excellent team, and the bombs they made were indeed powerful.
But Li San...
"Li San, what's wrong? Your face is pale, breaking into cold sweat. Are you sick?"
"No, not at all, I, I..." Li San's body seed shivering, sitting rigidly, eyes avoiding looking outside the window.
"Are you afraid of heights or helicopters?" Xiaofan casually asked.
"I, I'm not afraid of, of, of heights. I'm just a little scared. Don't, don't talk to ; I, I'm fine."
"I'm going to ntion sothing now; everyone prepare psychologically," Xiaofan announced.
Everyone paused, suddenly looking over, and Shen Zuimo opened his eyes too.
"This mission cos with imnse risk, but it's a fantastic opportunity for personal growth. Rember the concept of 'one kill attack' ntioned earlier? What we lack is real combat confrontation. So this ti, you must prepare ntally; if the enemy can be killed, do it in one move. They're our enemies; there's no room for rcy."
Everyone here has at least a few, a dozen, even dozens to hundreds of lives taken in their hands. Yet, Xiaofan treats this risk as a great way to improve skills; this guy has nerves of steel, doesn't he?
Is this risking lives? Playing with death...
Yet one must admit Xiaofan is quite right; to beco stronger, one not only faces enemies but also an inner hurdle.
"Are you sure you want them all to do this?"
At this mont, Shen Zuimo suddenly spoke.
"Why ask that?" Xiaofan asked, puzzled.
"You must know that too much Killing Qi can twist a person's psyche after extensive killing...then..."
"We're not like the Red Butterfly mbers, and you're no longer the nightingale from Red Butterfly. You're Shen Zuimo now; we can prevent the Heart Demon caused by Killing Qi from controlling us, and being our comrade, you can too," Xiaofan said earnestly. Shen Zuimo had nearly escaped the inner curse before. If Xiaofan can help her dissolve the Heart Demon once, she can do it a second ti.
"Why do you say that?"
"Because I understand you and everyone here."
Understand? Does this guy truly understand her? Does he know what she's thinking? He's lying with a straight face.
Words are pointless; Xiaofan's task is to present the entire result before Shen Zuimo. The current discussion is still premature, but when that day arrives, Xiaofan will certainly prove it to her. Certainly...
Shen Zuimo indeed feels Xiaofan's Killing Qi is different from the Red Butterfly mbers. The ability to control Killing Qi at any mont is already incredibly bizarre. If it were her, anger would imdiately trigger an invisible Killing Qi, entirely uncontrollable. Her sole focus would be on killing the opponent.
"Connection established, Li Kuo, adjust the radio channel to match the helicopter frequency. Xiaofan, you can directly converse with the border officers soon," Xiaolei's news of the channel connection ca just then.
"Hello, I'm from the base reinforcent squad. Model Q12Y474. My na is Lei Xiaolei, requesting B427 border command to respond."
"Hello, I'm Ren Long from B427 border command, already received orders from the base. Welco to your reinforcent. Please instruct."
"Hello, I'm the leader of this operation, Ye Xiaofan. Could you detail the current situation, please?"
"Battle just comnced half an hour ago; the rcenaries' firepower is stronger than yesterday. Due to the territorial nature between the two nations, we can't use artillery to intercept them. They're again attempting to invade our borders, and Platoons 218 and 216 are fiercely resisting. Base mbers are also suppressing them while dostic criminals are simultaneously launching attacks. Platoons 214 and 212 are intercepting and preventing them from crossing the border."
"Xiaolei, how many minutes till arrival?" Xiaofan covered the radio and asked slowly.
"Approximately twenty minutes; this is the helicopter's maximum speed," Xiaolei imdiately replied.
"Mr. Ren Long, please inform Platoons 218 and 216 along with remaining base mbers to imdiately retreat to rendezvous with 212 in ten minutes. Leave the rcenaries to us."
"Really? How many did the base send this ti?" the other side asked, suddenly delighted.
"Uh, eight..."
"What?"
