I waited in the elimination area for five hours before Jiang Li showed up. During this free time in between, I got to know the girl who I had dragged into the self-detonation situation earlier, Valgina Ilya Ivanov, from the Russian region. I had originally wanted to try and persuade her and her teammates to join my team, but she politely told me that her major was also team command. It was just that I was always looking down at my phone and slacking off in class, so I didn't notice that we were classmates in this class. Could it be that the reason I hadn't recruited anyone was because of this?
When I saw the girl again, she was no longer as glamorous as before. Her whole body, including her hair, was covered in grass, dirt, and there were several extremely obvious bloodstains on her arm. I had a clear view of her outstanding performance on the monitors. Jiang Li had fully utilized the advantages of guerrilla warfare. In the end, Team B's achievements were eliminating the opponent's commander and the acting commander, with a total of 39 eliminations. Huang Mingli deserved a lot of credit, and Gu Xiaoyao was promoted to second lieutenant.
After exchanging contact information, we went our separate ways. I added Jiang Li to the small group named "Three Figures in the Moonlight".
Oh, now that group should be called "Five Figures in the Moonlight".
...
I didn't expect that Elsa would call me to her office.
"Your team's number has been approved. It's 072. How many people have you found so far?" Elsa took out a can of Coca-Cola from the fridge.
"Five. I still need a machine gunner, a communications soldier, a medic, and a demolition expert."
"Then you figure out a way to find them all within a month," Elsa impatiently waved her left hand, and some Coke splashed out. "I'll help you out if necessary. By the way, who are the two people you've found?"
"Uh... Jiang Li and Lu Wanqing."
"Good job, kid!" Elsa praised highly. "By the way, do you know the content of the practical assessment yet?"
"No."
"Didn't your childhood sweethearts tell you?"
"That's not the right way to use that term... No, I was brought here by you right after I came out, okay!"
"Oh, right!" Elsa slapped her forehead. "Then I'll tell you. You'll be stationed at the Kreber Military Base in Akria for a month, and it will be fully taken over by the trainees."
"Fully taken over? What does that mean?" I had a vague idea of what it might be.
"It means you're on your own! There are no fighter jets, no transport planes. You have to go to the airport 70 kilometers away every day to get supplies. You'll be right at the front line facing the enemy. Unless there are special circumstances, the instructors won't show up there. The command depends on the cooperation between Department D and Department E. Department A is responsible for combat."
"Are you kidding me!" I was shocked. "What's the difference between this and World War II!"
"There is a difference. Department E has trained quite a number of pilots who can make helicopters take off and land."
"No, sending us there," I licked my lips in disbelief. "Is there any difference from sending us to our deaths?"
"We mentioned it at the beginning of the semester, right?" Elsa tossed the empty Coke bottle. "The task of Class 4 is to be the Quick Reaction Force, the only class equipped with helicopters."
"What's that got to do with me?"
"You're in Class 4 yourself. Don't you care?"
"I guess that's true. But I've never even met my class teacher."
"Anyway, you won't meet him this month either." Elsa waved her hand. "Get out of here. Be careful on the way."
I didn't know who she was talking to.
