A few days later, Xie Xiaoshuai and the sand fox team continued their daily training, and the exercise also entered the final stage. Because Xie Xiaoshuai led people to give the Red Army a ruthless blow, there were major changes in the top level of the Red Army, and the Blue Army seized the reality and counterattacked in an all-round way, the Red Army was simply unable to deal with it, and finally chose to admit defeat.

"Woo......" The clarion call of the whole brigade was remembered, and everyone immediately put down everything they were doing and rushed to the rostrum to gather.

After everyone arrived, Lei Wei sorted out the team and waited for the leader to enter, and Xie Xiaoshuai found that a large number of passers-by had come over, led by a lieutenant general, followed by two major generals, and a few colonels, Ren Tianqi was the last to follow the steps of the people in front. After Lei Wei turned around and asked the leader, he quickly entered the ranks.

"Comrades, our victory in this exercise is due to the contribution of the Rattlesnake." The lieutenant general spoke sonorously and shook his fist heavily.

"On behalf of the party committee of the military region, I would like to express my appreciation for your meritorious achievements, and hope that in the future, you will guard against arrogance and rashness, train hard, and improve yourself. Ren Tianqi, I really want to see the squad that made me, the deputy commander, revolve around them. After appreciating, the deputy commander smiled at Ren Tianqi and said.

"Sand Fox is out of the queue and comes to the rostrum." Ren Tianqi stepped forward and waved his hand.

Xie Xiaoshuai ran to the rostrum with Shahu, standing up in front of the leaders, and they were extremely nervous, this was the first time they faced the review of the head of the military region, holding their heads high, and wanting to show their most spiritual side to the chief.

"What are you nervous about? Relax, you have beheaded my old fellow, why aren't you nervous when you face him? The deputy commander quipped.

"Report to the chief, it was a time of war, we were in a state of hostilities, and we should give him the respect he deserves for a high-ranking general." As the captain, Xie Xiaoshuai replied.

"Oh? A private, lad, what's your name? "In the face of excellent young soldiers, the deputy commander was kind.

"Report chief, I am Xie Xiaoshuai, the captain of the sand fox team, codenamed Red Lian Snake." Xie Xiaoshuai raised his head and replied loudly.

"It's you who are causing wind and rain in the rear of the Red Army, forcing our chickens and dogs to jump to support you? And let me, the deputy commander, circle around you like a nanny, ready to meet any of your requests. ”

"Report chief, I believe that the exercise is a real battle and a war, as long as the war can be won, no matter what method can be used, no matter what the price can be paid." Xie Xiaoshuai tried hard to calm the tension in his heart.

"Well, a soldier should have such an awareness. Minister Liu, to give this young man a boost, the rank of captain of a commando is really a bit unreasonable, and the other team members should also be awarded, and I will sign the documents. The deputy commander turned to a colonel.

It was the colonel who paid attention to Xie Xiaoshuai during the big competition in the military region, the minister of military affairs.

"Yes, chief, I'll do it as soon as I get back, and I'll put it on your table as quickly as possible." Minister Liu responded.

"Okay, let's go back, my curiosity is satisfied, I didn't expect to find this excellent talent, Ren Tianqi, you have to hone and hone him more." The deputy commander took the lead and left.

"It's the chief." Ren Tianqi responded immediately, and followed Gong Gong in a hurry, and sent people to the car before coming back.

On the third day, the commendation order came down, and the general content of the name was that the sand fox squad was not afraid of hardships and dangers, went deep behind enemy lines, and made outstanding achievements. The deputy captain of the sand fox squad was specially promoted, and Private Xie Xiaoshuai was promoted to officer, with the rank of lieutenant and the administrative rank, and he was sent to the military academy for further study on a certain day. And the other members of the sand fox team recorded a collective second-class merit, which can be said to be a great honor smashed on their bodies, and they were all very proud, and their tails were about to rise to the sky.

Ren Tianqi personally awarded Xie Xiaoshuai the title, Xie Xiaoshuai, who took the rank of lieutenant, did not have any waves in his heart, it was expected to become an officer, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. Then Ren Tianqi announced that since there was still no suitable candidate for the captain of the sand fox team, Xie Xiaoshuai, the deputy captain, would continue to preside over the daily work. For this order, no one in the sand fox team was surprised, everyone knew in their hearts that no one would come to the sand fox to be the captain at all, and Xie Xiaoshuai would wear the hat of the vice captain until the deputy word was removed.

The people of the Sand Fox Team are immersed in the joy of receiving a great honor, and they are all telling about their inner peace in private.

The "Woo ......" battle alarm sounded, the sand fox team was still eating in the cafeteria, and several people went back to the dormitory depressedly to put on their equipment, brought weapons and rushed to the combat readiness duty room to listen to the instructions.

"Comrades, I have just received an order from my superiors that an important person was ambushed yesterday afternoon in the Nanka area while inspecting the work, and all the members of his entourage were killed. Today, jihadist groups claimed responsibility for the incident and released a television video demanding recognition of their sovereign legitimacy. This is absolutely impossible, can there be two regimes in our country? This is a national separatism, and the higher-level leaders have asked us to organize the rescue of the hostages and inflict heavy losses on this force, so that they can clearly understand their ridiculousness. Ren Tianqi's expression was very serious.

"Yes, guaranteed to complete the mission." Xie Xiaoshuai responded to the order.

"This is your first actual battle, and it was the head of the military region who asked your sand fox team to go to the rescue. The other side is a religious fanatic who doesn't care about life or death, so you have to be very careful. Ren Tianqi advised.

"Well, what's the situation?"

"It's all in this portfolio, now there is only the location of the ambush site, and then they are gone, and the biggest difficulty of this mission is how to find the enemy's traces. You can mobilize all the equipment of our Sidewinder Brigade as long as it helps you. Remember that time is urgent, and the later you find them, the more likely the hostages are to die. ”

"Got it, then I'll go and prepare."

Xie Xiaoshuai carefully studied the information, and he found that the surrounding environment of the ambush site was very simple, with cities in the east, deserts in the north and south, and hilly areas in the west. The video was recorded indoors, with very little light and was lit by electric lights. This makes the scope of the search clear.

The transport plane still landed at the last military airport, and as soon as the cabin door opened, with the roar of the motor, several four-wheeled off-road motorcycles and a two-wheeled off-road motorcycle came down, and the sound was full of horsepower. There were three people walking off the cabin Xie Xiaoshuai, Yin Zhilin, and Gong Mao.

According to Xie Xiaoshuai's deployment on the plane, several people quickly disappeared into the darkness, Wang Jizhen, Cauliflower Snake, Chen Hongjun and Zhang Jialin rode quad bikes to search in two groups to the desert areas on the north and south sides, Li Gang rode two motorcycles alone to search in the hilly areas in the west, Gong Mao drove a Wuzhi-10 armed helicopter in the airport, and took Yin Zhilin to hover over the city, listening to all radio communications, looking for clues.

Temperatures in this area can reach 60 degrees during the day and minus 30 degrees Celsius at night, and it is not pleasant to carry out a search mission in such harsh climatic conditions. The members of the Sand Fox team were still immersed in the joy of great honor one moment ago, and the next moment they started to act sadly.

After a night of intensive searching, the sand fox team did not say anything, and the team members were also exhausted one by one, and their physical exertion was much faster than usual in this harsh climate.

In the assembly area, the other members of the sand fox team were hurrying to rest, while Xie Xiaoshuai took the map and studied it carefully, and at the same time guessed what he would do if he was a member of the jihadist organization. How can such a simple terrain be hidden from being discovered?

His fingers slowly moved on the map, while guessing all kinds of possibilities, and suddenly an idea appeared in Xie Xiaoshuai's mind: Could it be so?
