Chapter 313: Chapter 93: The Start of the Mock Battle Exercise

"This pertains to a soldier’s honor, so we will select the true strong ones from the Eight Divisions to participate in the world competition. I don’t expect all twenty of you to remain, but at least you and Yun Xiao must stay. In my view, you both have great strength, unmatched by others," Quan Shaoqing said. Despite Gu Xiaoxi and Yun Xiao being female soldiers, they did not lose out to their male counterparts in the slightest.

"Of course, Xiao Xiao and Xiao Xiao are ones we’ve carefully trained for so long, and they definitely won’t lose to other military dogs in terms of Spirituality. Their physical capabilities have reached an incredible standard through long-term training. And Xiao Xiao has also gradually gained Spiritual Wisdom," Gu Xiaoxi explained.

"It’s good that you have confidence!" Quan Shaoqing said. As long as Gu Xiaoxi was confident, it meant that there was a great hope for this matter.

...

The next day at five o’clock in the morning, an urgent whistle blew, waking everyone from their sleep. They quickly got dressed and assembled urgently.

Three minutes later, everyone had assembled and the figure standing on the podium was an unfamiliar officer with a stern expression. He said impassively, "I am the person in charge of this competition. I can tell you very clearly that your combat exercise begins right now, this very moment."

Gu Xiaoxi, leading Xiao Xiao, looked ahead, thinking that it would begin with a comprehensive ability screening for the military dogs. She hadn’t expected to start with an exercise. The intention was to eliminate a batch of people first, then the unqualified military dogs, and finally select the best individuals.

At this point, the officer on the stage loudly explained again, "The exercise will last for six days and will be in the form of a confrontation match. The 160 of you have arrived here to face off against 160 veterans from the Special Forces, covering a total distance of 120 kilometers. You now have half an hour to wear your Positioning Bracelets, collect exercise supplies, and finally, take your mission cards."

Gu Xiaoxi and Yun Xiao queued to collect their items, and half an hour later, everyone regrouped and stood in neat lines.

The person in charge of the competition on the stage then said with a stern tone, "I believe you have collected your items. You have only twelve pieces of compressed biscuits, a pack of beef jerky, and a bag of dog food. You have the right to surrender, and the right to withdraw from the competition. Anyone who cannot persist should press the red alarm button on their bracelet. We will dispatch a helicopter to pick you up and bring you back. However, those who voluntarily withdraw will be permanently disqualified from participating in the world competition. Remember, it’s permanent..."

The competition was more brutal than everyone had imagined. Even real Special Forces might not be able to complete the mission smoothly. A total of 120 kilometers over six days, it was enough to exhaust people to death.

And in the situation of insufficient food, it also tested the endurance of the soldiers and their military dogs.

What was most critical were the tasks on the mission cards.

Each person randomly picked up six handkerchiefs carried by hostages; the military dogs had to smell the scent and search for the hostages. Along the way there were twelve hazardous explosives hidden, which the dogs needed to detect. The path was indicated on a map, which stipulated crossing certain mountains and rivers.

Especially, while carrying out the tasks, they also had to be constantly on guard against ambushes; being captured meant elimination.

At the start of the exercise, the commander led everyone to the edge of a forest, saying only, "Enter the mountain, the exercise begins!"

With a gunshot, everyone hurriedly dashed into the bushes.

Gu Xiaoxi quickly led her team deep into the mountains. They had only just entered a dense forest when she immediately sensed an imminent danger.

"No good, too many people, the target is too big. Let’s split up," Gu Xiaoxi, adjusting her military cap, said with a serious face.

Yun Xiao, Guo Qiwei, Xue Xiaoqi, and Gu Yun chose to join Gu Xiaoxi’s team directly.

Huang Xin, with Guo Dong, Song Xiahe, and others formed another team. The remaining ten people split into two teams.

The twenty individuals dispersed quickly.

They had only just separated when a team of men wearing black hoods rushed in, surprised to see the twenty people had divided into four teams.

They, too, quickly split into four teams, chasing Gu Xiaoxi and her group from four different directions.

Gu Xiaoxi was very fast, leading her people through the forests. Before the sun rose, they had to find a secure place where they could calm down and go over the mission card.

Gu Xiaoxi’s keen sense of hearing always allowed her to avoid danger swiftly. The people chasing her, unable to keep up, were quickly left behind.

As for the others, they weren’t so lucky. Out of 160 people entering the exercise, twenty were eliminated after ten minutes.

That is to say, those twenty had already become captives.

The exercise had eliminated twenty people right at the start. At this rate, it wouldn’t take long before many more would be eliminated. As the number of those eliminated increased, the pressure on those remaining grew more intense. The enemy, 160 strong without a single loss, would be dealing a devastating blow to them, and the difficulty of their tasks was also increasing.

At six-thirty in the morning, Gu Xiaoxi, with her four teammates and military dog, quietly hid behind a large tree in a bush. The five of them took out their mission cards, ready to study their tactics.
