Chapter 122 The Falcon Assault Team

Lu Yao noticed that when everyone heard Falcon Assault Team, their expressions became gloomy, and the atmosphere became less lively.

What exactly was special about this Falcon Assault Team that it was actually able to make these soldiers, who were usually filled with morale, become dispirited in an instant?

"Captain Xu, tell me about the Falcon Assault Team!" Lu Yao was curious. Seeing his team members like this, he could not help but ask Captain Xu about it curiously.

Xu Long looked at everyone's expression and felt quite bad. However, he thought that he had to face this matter in the end. There was no harm in saying it. Therefore, he said, "Alright, we can talk about it. But I think it would be better if Wang Shi tells us about it!"

"Captain Xu, is this appropriate?" It wasn't that Wang Shi was unwilling, but he was afraid that the other team members would feel displeased, so he didn't know what to do for a moment.

"As a man, we should be able to face up to our failure. Being conscious of shame is near to fortitude. What are you afraid of? Let's recall it and reflect on ourselves again." When Xu Long realized that even Wang Shi had the same thought as the others, he became even more determined.

"Then I will tell this sad story to Staff Officer Lu." Wang Shi gritted his teeth and patted the dirt off his clothes. He stood up and looked at everyone.

"The Falcon Assault Team is the trump card among all assault teams in Xijing Military Region. They were invincible against all the assault teams in Shina's western region. Only two assault teams could compete with them. They were the Sirius Assault Team of Yanjing Military Region and the Tiger Whale Assault Team of the Southwest Military Region. These three teams were called Shina's Three Sharp Blades." Wang Shi tried his best to explain everything he knew, allowing everyone to have a more thorough understanding.

"The Falcon Assault Team was established in the early period after the founding of the country. It is the oldest and most experienced assault team with modern equipment. They once participated in foreign aid wars and obtained immortal battle achievements. On the Korean Battlefield, they defeated the Sea Elephant Assault Team and the Four-state Assault Team of the opponent and caused them to suffer heavy losses and flee in the end. Thanks to their achievements, the glory of Shina soldiers could be seen across the Korean Battlefield."

"After liberation, through a series of laborious training and actual combat training, they accumulated a lot of achievements and experiences in reconnaissance, air interception, assault, and emergency evacuation. They had participated in many overseas evacuations and convoy operations. They made brilliant achievements for Shina's national defense. The other special force teams that were established later on all adopted their system. They included the Tiger and Lion Special Assault Teams of the eighty-ninth army. Therefore, the Falcon Assault Team is like our teacher."

"As far as I know, every member of our elite team has once participated in the grand selection competition of the Falcon Assault Team. Except me, who was lucky enough to pass the first two rounds of the assessment because of my sniping skills, the others were all eliminated in the first round of selection." Wang Shi stopped and looked at his comrades.

"Eliminated in the first round?" During the day that Lu Yao had just spent, he had already witnessed the strength of everyone in the elite team, including Wang Shi's sniping skills, Li Fei's driving skills, Gao Feng's strength and wrestling skills, and so on. Although they were all defeated by Lu Yao, Lu Yao knew that if not for the fortuitous encounters that happened to him which brought him extraordinary skills, it would have been impossible for him to have a chance to defeat them.

"Yes, I was eliminated in the first round." Gao Feng had a straightforward personality. Although it was difficult for him to get over this defeat, he did not avoid speaking of it. He directly continued to answer Lu Yao's question. "The Falcon Assault Team is the best among the troops in the north. They are strong and have good equipment. Every soldier wants to be a member of the team. At that time, I was full of confidence in the selection, but I didn't expect that I would be beaten down by one of Falcon Assault Team's reserve members in less than five minutes even when I used the wrestling skills that I was proud of."

"In the past few years, I have been training crazily and desperately. Other people only think that I am crazy and stupid. In fact, I do not dare to let myself be idle. Every time I stop training, I can't stop thinking about the eagle that is about to spread its wings on their falcon badges. Then I will force myself to train nonstop!" When Gao Feng finished speaking, everyone could feel his passionate yet helpless feelings.

"Me too. At that time, during the assessment of the reserve team members, I also failed to last for five minutes, so I was eliminated. These past few years, I trained so crazily to improve my strength, or in other words, I wanted to avoid the shame that this defeat brought me. I didn't dare to think about it, but I couldn't forget it. I believed that many people sitting there also had that kind of feeling. It was like a nightmare, always hunting me." Wang Peng, who had always been active, said with a tired face.

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

"..."

"Captain Xu, since that assault team has such a glorious history, why would they suddenly come here to participate in the confrontation drill against the eighty-ninth army? This is something I can't figure out for a while." Lu Yao suddenly thought of this question as he repeated the name of the Falcon Assault Team several times to himself.

The Lion Assault Team and the Tiger Assault Team were considered the best elites in the eighty-ninth army. They were the strongest. However, compared to the Falcon Assault Team, they seemed to be a little inferior. But why would such a team agree to participate in the confrontation drill? Could it be that they wanted to train their reserve team members?

When Lu Yao asked this question, everyone looked at Xu Long curiously, waiting for his answer. Because they found that this question seemed to be the worthiest of discussing at present.

"Staff Officer Lu, I know what you want to ask me. In fact, I am not very clear about this matter, but I think Officer Wang should know about it, right?" Xu Long took a step back.

As a result, Officer Wang stood between Xu Long and the team members. For a moment, Officer Wang was a little embarrassed. He tidied up his camouflage suit and flipped through his notebook. He said, "I don't know about it either. I just heard from my colleagues of the army headquarters that it was Elder Huang of our military region who took the initiative to make this arrangement. You also know that Elder Huang has a prominent position in the army. This matter doesn't seem to be difficult for him."

Xu Long did not expect that it turned out to be Elder Huang who was involved in this matter. He was curious and couldn't help but ask, "Officer Wang, are you talking about Commander Huang Bingtian? I heard that he has retired."

"But that is what has happened. You know, Elder Huang was born in the army and grew up in the army. For someone like him, the army is his home. He retired because he wanted to give opportunities to young men. He is very enthusiastic about many things in the army. And now, our new commander was his favorite student. It is not difficult for us to understand his actions!" As an office cadre, Officer Wang usually dealt with more internal information in the army than others, so he naturally knew more than others.

"That's a lot easier for us to understand. Do you know which members of the Falcon Assault Team will come? Could it be some reserve members? At that time, we lost. After so many years, we might not lose!" Li Kang was an active thinker, and he asked half-jokingly as the atmosphere relaxed a little.

"Don't worry, I am very clear about this. I dare to guarantee that this time, those core members of the Falcon Assault team will definitely come." Although Officer Wang understood Li Kang's intention after hearing his words, he could not help but explain.

"Oh, Officer Wang, how do you know so much?" Li Fei asked.

"I have seen the list of participants this time. One of them is called Hong Yan. I don't think I need to introduce him. Everyone should know what this means!" Officer Wang said proudly.

"What? Hong Yan is here too?" When Wang Shi heard this name, he instantly stood up from the ground. In a few steps, he walked to the front of Officer Wang and asked, "Where is the list? Let me take a look!"

Lu Yao did not know who Hong Yan was. But this man must be someone special, because Wang Shi, who had always been calm, behaved so excitedly.

"Here you are. This is the list of the participants for the drill. It was given to me by Staff Officer Tang of the army headquarters. It is absolutely authoritative!" Looking at Wang Shi, Officer Wang opened his notebook and pulled out an A4 paper from the middle. There were many names on the paper.

When everyone saw Officer Wang take out this list, they quickly surrounded him. With Wang Shi and Officer Wang in the middle, they formed a circle with almost no gaps. Everyone wanted to see this list with their own eyes.

"Hong Yan, Su Li, Tie Feinan..." When they saw these three names, everyone had a complicated feeling as if there was a lump in their throat that made them uneasy.

"Captain Xu, what are they planning to do this time? The Falcon Assault Team's Iron Triangle has been dispatched. They are clearly preparing to leave us with no chance!" When Li Kang saw this list, he was instantly shivering with despair as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

If he still had a trace of hope before, now he didn't have any.

Although the men in the army were full of ambition and dared to defeat all their rivals and enemies, this could only happen when there was not such a great disparity in strength. The gap between the strengths of the two sides was so enormous that even before the confrontation drill began, everyone felt as if they had seen the result.

No one had any other thoughts.

"The Chief naturally has his reasons for making such arrangements. Let's go back and rest today. Tomorrow morning, the leaders will naturally come and announce this matter. If you have any questions, feel free to ask then." Xu Long was not in a good mood either, but as the captain, he had to learn how to unite his teammates and maintain their morale. Finally, he said, "But I must inform you brats beforehand. If you have any questions tomorrow, you can ask them. If anything happens, I'll take care of it. But once we enter the designated venue after tomorrow morning, if anyone dares to disgrace me and the whole team, I'll skin them alive!"
