It's a cold January night.

Fortunately, the trainees were all dressed in cotton clothes and brought enough clothes to be able to sleep in the wilderness. Although the weather was cold, the cadets led by Grant did not light a campfire and slept in the dark. Because there is a fire in the mountains and forests, one is that it is easy to attract wild beasts, and the other is that it is easy to expose the target and reveal their location to Liu Jintang.

Therefore, all the students slept with their backs to the big tree and their clothes, not daring to relax in the slightest.

At this moment, Grant couldn't sleep, and kept thinking about Liu Jintang's affairs. Judging from today's confrontation, he did not gain the upper hand. On the contrary, through this small matter, Liu Jintang slightly occupied a favorable situation. Grant is already forty-two years old, and if he loses to Liu Jintang, who is less than twenty years old, his face will be gloomy.

He represents not only himself, but also West Point. For the sake of personal glory and the glory of West Point, he is not allowed to fail, only to win.

How to solve Liu Jintang?

Grant couldn't sleep all night, his eyes wide as brass bells.

"Whew!!"

Just as Grant was thinking, a flickering fire appeared a hundred meters away from the resting place.

Grant stood up and yelled, "Alert, there are enemies!" ”

At the same time, the cadets in charge of the vigil also shouted at the same moment: "There are enemies, there are enemies!" With the sound of a shout of great effort, the resting cadets stood up. They reached out and grasped the dagger in their hands, their eyes staring at the distant firelight, staring warily ahead, and there was a hint of exhaustion and weariness on their faces.

Grant's expression was serious, and he shouted in a deep voice: "All assemble, be careful, but don't be afraid." Although the enemy touched it, the number of the other party was about the same as ours, all of them were a hundred, and the other party's weapons were the same as ours, even if Liu Jintang wanted to order an attack, we were not afraid. ”

After saying this, the students were suddenly relieved.

"Look, there's a fire in the north!"

One of the students looked stunned and pointed to the north of his position. In the eye, torches flickered, dispelling the darkness, which was so dazzling in the dark night.

"The south, the south also has fire! Beware of enemies to the south. ”

"To the west, there is also an enemy in the west."

"Oh no, there are enemies in the east too, and we are surrounded."

For a while, there was a loud noise, and countless students shrank into a ball with a look of surprise and panic on their faces. Although these cadets were all top students of the military academy, they suddenly fought in the field, and it was dark night, and there was a temporary panic. However, these students are capable after all, and they quickly calm down.

Grant looked at the changes in the students with satisfaction, and then said indifferently: "There is nothing terrible about this situation, leave them alone!" If they dare to come up, destroy them here. ”

The two sides are facing each other, and Grant is as steady as Mount Tai.

In this way, the students are also relieved.

A platoon leader, John, came to attack with his soldiers, and the number of men under his command was only thirty, and he did not dare to rush forward. Moreover, the cadets who are now distributed around Grant are not all the personnel under his command, only a third. Even if John was asked to rush up, he wouldn't have given the order, because rushing forward would be a dead end.

A wicked smile appeared on John's face, and he said loudly: "Colonel Grant, you have been surrounded, surrender immediately." As long as you are willing to surrender, I can intercede for you. ”

Grant snorted, ignoring it.

What if you are surrounded?

He expected that the other party would not dare to attack!

At this moment, Grant realized the difficulties of this match. The other party surrounded him, but did not dare to attack. In the same way, he doesn't have the weapons to win, so the problems for both sides are huge. Grant looked at the surrounding students and ordered: "Everyone don't care about each other's shouting, they don't dare to attack, sleep when they should sleep, and be on guard when they should be vigilant." At this time, it depends on everyone's mentality, whose mentality is strong, can be as stable as Mount Tai. ”

The trainees closed their eyes, but they couldn't sleep at all at the thought of having enemies around.

Seeing that Grant did not reply, John yelled again, "Colonel Grant, are you asleep?" Ouch, this is a great opportunity for me to attack. Get ready, I'll attack right away. ”

Although Grant's men closed their eyes, their hearts were lifted.

It's a pity that after waiting for a long time, there is no movement.

All the trainees' nerves were tense and could not relax, and not even one of them was able to fall asleep.

At the moment of the great enemy, I can't sleep at all.

The so-called stable mentality is really not easy to maintain.

With a smile on his face, John said in a loud voice: "Colonel Grant, if you don't speak or resist, it's hard for me!" Our Brigade Commander Liu said, waiting for you to fight to the death, quickly pick up your weapons. You sit like this, where is there still a little bit of colonel's dignity. If I were you, I would have taken up arms and killed you, alas, I feel sorry for you! ”

The corners of Grant's mouth twitched, and a look of anger appeared on his face.

Liu Jintang deceived people too much!

However, it immediately occurred to him in his mind that this was the other party's deliberate provocation to provoke him into battle. If it is really a night battle, the result must be a hit. Colonel Grant took a few deep breaths in succession, suppressed his anger, and stopped thinking about going to battle.

After scolding a few words in a row, John also felt uninterested, and ordered: "Brothers, this is the attack plan formulated by Brigade Commander Liu. Give me turns scolding Grant, even if he is calm, let him not rest well. ”

"Yes!"

John's students nodded in response, smirking evilly.

Next, the sound of scolding sounded in all directions, which was very ugly.

The scolding was everywhere, and Grant was as steady as Mount Tai.

Although Grant was able to hold back, the cadets couldn't help it, and one of the cadets said, "Colonel Grant, the other party is so arrogant, can you still hold back?" If it had been me, I would have gone out with the soldiers. Even if it's a desperate effort, it's worth it. Moreover, I expected that the other party would not dare to entangle with us, and it was likely that he would retreat with one blow. ”

Another student said: "If you don't fight back, you can only boost the arrogance of the other party." ”

Grant shook his head and said solemnly: "Liu Jintang has already set up an ambush outside, just waiting for us to pursue." If I am angry, then I have really fallen for Liu Jintang's scheme. Being scolded is just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. Anything can happen on the battlefield, and if you don't have the patience to do so, what kind of battle can you fight? ”

After a pause, Grant said earnestly: "What you have to learn is to endure beyond ordinary people. Endure what ordinary people can't endure, that's ability, that's ability. ”

After hearing this, the students nodded their heads one after another.

However, when many students looked at Grant, they were unimpressed.

Such a battle is too embarrassing.

One by one, the students listened to the sounds coming from their surroundings, and they all wanted to go to a big kill to get rid of these disturbing flies. But Grant is the commander, and they must follow orders and can only stay where they are.
