Chapter 41: The Second Cause

Tan Shaoyu's fist was fast, and Zhao Guoqing's fist was faster.

After using the golden needle to puncture the acupoint to break the opponent's hard qigong, Zhao Guoqing's other fist had already smashed on Tan Shaoyu's chin.

A stout body flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.

Defeated.

Tan Shaoyu was defeated!

And it was defeated by one move!

For more than ten seconds, the people watching around did not come back to their senses, and no one dared to believe that a recruit could knock Tan Shaoyu, a seeded player who participated in the military competition last year, with a single punch, and even the arrogant Leng Wushuang had a stiff face.

Zhao Guoqing glanced at Tan Shaoyu, and said to Leng Wushuang and all the people in the third group: "Now you should know that it's not a waste that we can stand here, right?" ”

Who dares to say that Zhao Guoqing and others are waste?

Tan Shaoyu lay stiffly on the ground, unable to recover until now.

A figure stood in front of Tan Shaoyu, Tan Shaoyu looked up and saw that it was Tan Xingchen, thinking that he had scolded Tan Xingchen for being a waste before, and in a blink of an eye, he was defeated by one move, and lowered his head in shame.

"Brother, I will prove that I am not a waste in the arena!" Tan Xingchen said in a deep voice, and at the same time stretched out his hand to Tan Shaoyu, "Brother, you are by no means a waste, you have been a hero in my eyes since you were a child!" ”

Tan Shaoyu looked at Tan Xingchen in a daze, the two are indeed brothers, but they are half-brothers, which is why Tan Shaoyu has not liked the relationship between this younger brother since he was a child, and felt that the appearance of him and his mother destroyed his original family.

Tan Xingchen showed a sincere smile: "Brother, get up." Prove to all that we are not waste! ”

Tan Shaoyu was suddenly a little moved, he had been alienated from Tan Xingchen for so many years, but he didn't expect him to follow his footsteps all the time and regard himself as a hero in his heart.

Finally, Tan Shaoyu stretched out his hand and shook Tan Xingchen's hand, and he nodded heavily because he didn't like to speak.

Tan Xingchen was overjoyed, he knew that from now on, his relationship with his brother would enter a new era.

"Thank you." Tan Xingchen said to Zhao Guoqing.

"Did I do anything? I didn't seem to be doing anything. Zhao Guoqing waved his hand, the goal he wanted had been achieved, and the shock of defeating Tan Shaoyu to the other contestants was not much worse than defeating Leng Wushuang.

Seeing that Zhao Guoqing was leaving, Leng Wushuang suddenly shouted: "Stop!" ”

He had always looked down on Zhao Guoqing, a recruit, before, but Zhao Guoqing's defeat of Tan Shaoyu with one punch was too great for him.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Guoqing asked unhurriedly.

Leng Wushuang's face was like frost, staring at Zhao Guoqing and saying, "I want to fight with you!" ”

"Leng Wushuang wants to challenge Zhao Guoqing?!"

"The cold squad leader participated in the military competition last year, and the other party is just a recruit, will it be too ...... to take the initiative to challenge a recruit?"

"Didn't you see that kid just defeated Squad Leader Tan with just one punch? Squad Leader Tan's strength is not much worse than that of Squad Leader Leng, and Squad Leader Leng's challenge to him is not a bully of recruits. ”

"Squad Leader Leng is not much stronger than Squad Leader Tan, will he be defeated by one move if he challenges that kid?"

"Shh......h Don't talk. ”

The people around were talking in a whisper, all guessing what Leng Wushuang's purpose was to challenge Zhao Guoqing, and if the two really fought, who would lose and who would win?

"Do you want to fight you if you say you're going to fight me?" Zhao Guoqing snorted contemptuously and turned to leave.

"You ......" Leng Wushuang had nothing to say, he ignored Zhao Guoqing when he wanted to challenge him before, but in the blink of an eye, Zhao Guoqing returned it to him in the same way.

A duel didn't happen as everyone imagined, and almost everyone was a little disappointed, and there were more mysterious speculations about who was stronger and who was weak between Zhao Guoqing and Leng Wushuang.

Zhao Guoqing has his own plans, defeating Tan Shaoyu is a little more tricky, if he really fights Leng Wushuang, even if he can defeat the other party, it will not be as simple as defeating Tan Shaoyu, he doesn't want any accidents before the game, so he refuses Leng Wushuang's challenge.

In addition, there is another advantage of rejecting the challenge of cold frost, which is that people can't guess how strong he is, so that when they play, there will be an invisible pressure on others to make the game more beneficial to themselves.

It's called tactics.

Soon Zhao Guoqing's defeat of Tan Shaoyu with one punch spread throughout the division, and for a while, Zhao Guoqing became a popular figure in the division, and at the same time, he also became a popular candidate in this division competition, and the momentum even overshadowed Leng Wushuang.

After a night's rest, after breakfast the next day, Zhao Guoqing, the soldiers who were going to participate in the competition, were gathered on the playground of the division headquarters.

The soldiers who participated were from three regular regiments and one artillery regiment, plus the division headquarters itself, and each place offered five places, plus Zhao Guoqing, a total of 23 specially approved candidates.

The rules of the competition are somewhat similar to those of the team competition, Zhao Guoqing and the 23 people will have to hold out for three days and three nights in the competition area composed of several mountains, during which they will be searched by up to 3,000 soldiers, and those caught by the searching soldiers will be eliminated directly.

In a completely unfamiliar environment, with no map and compass, no other weapons and food, and more than 3,000 soldiers to pursue, this will be very stressful for Zhao Guoqing's 23 contestants.

Zhao Guoqing, Feng Xiaolong, and Li Shicheng were thrown into the uninhabited mountains for special training before, and now that they think about it, the special training of the three seems to be completely for this competition, and it is easy for them to hold on for three days without any weapons and equipment, and the only thing to worry about is the three thousand soldiers who are searching for them and other contestants who will attack them at any time.

Once in the region, players from the same place usually choose to huddle, which makes it easier to survive in a bad environment and is not so easy to be attacked by other players.

Zhao Guoqing, Feng Xiaolong, and Li Shicheng did not choose to hold together, firstly, the three of them wanted to see what level of strength they had reached now, and secondly, the three of them could not be together forever, especially in the more cruel games in the future, they had to learn to fight alone.

The 3,000 soldiers in charge of the search and arrest entered the competition area an hour later than Zhao Guoqing and the others, which was enough to allow all the contestants to hide or go farther away.

During the day, it is easier to be discovered by other players or soldiers who are searching for them, so Zhao Guoqing first found a hidden place to cat, like during the team competition, and planned to wait until it was dark before acting, to see if he could get some weapons and equipment and food from the soldiers who searched for them.

It was almost noon, and the contestants in the entire competition area, except for the 3,000 soldiers who were responsible for the search, stopped moving.

At this time, a tense meeting was going on in the office of the division headquarters.

In addition to the division leaders and the regimental leaders in each regiment, there was also Instructor Xiao who attended the meeting, and there was a man sitting opposite Instructor Xiao, and it was his arrival that caused this meeting and made the leaders of the division nervous.

Seinfeld Yang, Captain of the Wyvern Special Forces Brigade.

Although the fighting season is all about selecting seeded soldiers for the Wyvern Special Forces, Seinfeld has never appeared in a match below the military competition, and his appearance is meant to be unusual, not to mention that he also brought a nervous news.

A team of twenty mercenaries appeared nearby.

"Captain Song, what you said is true, there are mercenaries in the competition area?" The division commander asked a little nervously, as a soldier, he naturally knew that the appearance of mercenaries meant to fight, and casualties were inevitable.

Seinfeld nodded, and at the same time his eyes fell on Instructor Xiao, who originally appeared here with the intention of going directly to the competition area to clear out those mercenaries, but was stopped by Instructor Xiao and brought here.

"So Captain Song came here to clear those mercenaries?" The division commander then asked.

Seinfeld replied: "Originally, my mission was indeed like this, but it was ......"

The division commander said nervously: "It's just what, is Captain Song going to give up this task?" ”

Seinfeld Yang didn't speak, and his gaze fell on Instructor Xiao again.

The eyes of the division commander and other officers, large and small, also followed.

Instructor Xiao smiled slightly, straightened up slightly and said, "Oh, it was I who asked Captain Song to stop acting." ”

The others were all very surprised when they heard this, and they couldn't figure out why Instructor Xiao did this.

It is true that there is a division of troops here, and a mercenary team of about twenty people is still capable of cleaning it up. It's just that the combat ability of these ordinary soldiers is obviously not comparable to the special forces of the Flying Dragon Special Forces, which are more professional and have been secretly performing combat missions.

"Captain Xiao, why are you doing this?" The division commander asked, with a hint of anger in his words.

Instructor Xiao said calmly: "There are two main reasons. First, don't you think that in peacetime, soldiers only know training every day, but they have not experienced any battles, and their fighting consciousness is being worn out day by day. ”

One sentence left the big and small leaders in the division speechless.

The soldiers are indeed training desperately, but the soldiers' sense of fighting disappears day by day because they have not fought for too long, and soldiers who have not fought can only be called soldiers, but they cannot be called soldiers.

"It's a great opportunity to at least stir the nerves of the soldiers so that they don't go into the real battlefield like a child in the future." Instructor Xiao said.

The division commander closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already relieved, completely agreeing with Instructor Xiao's point, and asked, "What about the second reason?" (Thanks to Xiaocao for the tip)
