Chapter 116: Devil Instructor (3)

An hour later.

The sun was high in the sky, and it was already noon. Several servants from the kitchen had carried lunch to the forest.

"Stop!" Gu Yun shouted in a low voice, "Rest for half an hour at noon. Dismissed!"

Breathing a long sigh of relief, many small soldiers fell to the ground out of exhaustion. Although they were tired and hungry, they didn't want to move anymore!

Glancing at the small soldiers lying on the ground without moving, Gu Yun said in a low voice, not heavy or light, "Go line up for food quickly. If you don't eat now, you won't be allowed to eat later!"

The small soldiers who were half-dead on the ground just now hurriedly sat up, dragged their heavy hands and feet, and obediently lined up to get food. Whether there was food to eat was a small matter, but if this female devil was unhappy, she didn't know how she would train them in the future!

Watching these backs that were unwilling, Gu Yun shook her head and laughed.

Han Shu narrowed his tiger eyes and laughed inwardly. Not bad, in just two days, she had already made these newborn calves have awe for her. Not easy! Gu Yun was about to walk over and line up with them, but a servant had already walked to her with a bamboo basket and said, "This is your lunch."

Gu Yun opened it and saw that it was the beef, rice, eggs, and cucumbers she usually ate, nothing missing. Gu Yun turned her head and glanced at the large steamed buns and braised meat cut into the size of half a fist piled up in the large basket next to her. Each soldier received two large steamed buns and a piece of meat. Gu Yun frowned slightly, handed the bamboo basket back to the servant, and said, "No need to prepare a different lunch for me in the future. Just eat the same as them."

If they didn't eat together, that would be fine, but since they were eating together, making this kind of special treatment was inappropriate. This was Gu Yun's concept as a modern person, but for these soldiers who had long been accustomed to the hierarchy, Gu Yun's approach was very strange.

Under the surprised eyes, Gu Yun took two steamed buns and a piece of meat by herself, and was about to find a place to rest for a while, when she happened to see Han Shu sitting on the grass opposite at some point.

Gu Yun thought for a while, then took two more steamed buns and a piece of meat and walked toward him. Gu Yun handed the steamed buns and meat in her hand to Han Shu, and sat down on the ground casually beside him. Gu Yun didn't talk nonsense with him, biting into the steamed buns and meat in large mouthfuls, without any of the reserve and elegance that a woman should have.

Originally, he extremely hated this woman, but after a morning of observation, he found that she was quite capable, no wonder she dared to compete with Su Yu in training troops. But speaking of training troops, Han Shu pondered for a while, and still kindly reminded, "You train troops like this, maybe they can all become masters, but the battlefield is not a ring. Such soldiers will be submerged in formations when they really go to the battlefield. No matter how well they can fight, can they fight against thousands of troops?"

Gu Yun swallowed the last bite of the steamed bun and replied indifferently, "Are there few soldiers in the Su Army who can kill the enemy on the battlefield? What I want to train is a special force with capable personnel, fast mobility, and strong combat effectiveness." The purpose and function are different, so the practice method is naturally different!

"Special force?" Han Shu frowned, what kind of force is this?

The soldiers had also eaten their fill. A morning of training had already made them exhausted. On the grass, they were lying all over the place. Gu Yun observed secretly. Only a few people could sit up, and even fewer still looked energetic. Ge Jingyun and Leng Xiao were two of them. Gu Yun smiled lightly. These two people had great potential. She should hone them well!

Gu Yun ignored him for a long time. Han Shu asked impatiently again, "What exactly is a special force?"

Gu Yun stretched her waist, leaned against the big tree behind her, and replied with pride, "It is a team that performs special tasks. Sometimes war requires human-sea tactics, and sometimes it requires elite individual soldiers. When you want to harass and destroy, conduct reconnaissance behind enemy lines, steal intelligence, or even assassinate and kidnap, you will know the value of such a team. Among these people, those who can meet my requirements and finally become the special forces candidates in my mind will not exceed fifty, but I can make these fifty people each a fierce general who can resist a thousand!"

Gu Yun's explanation made Han Shu roughly understand what she meant by special forces, but hearing her wild words, Han Shu immediately replied in disbelief, "Impossible!" He believed in resisting a hundred, but how could one resist a thousand? No matter how powerful a person is, it is impossible to replace a thousand people!

Calculating the time, it was about time to rest enough. Gu Yun was too lazy to explain too much to him, smiled coldly, "You can't, doesn't mean I can't. Let's wait and see!"

What an arrogant woman! Han Shu's eyes widened. Gu Yun didn't wait for him to explode, and had already stood up gracefully, walked to the open space where everyone was lying, and shouted, "Line up!"

Those who heard it hurriedly climbed up, and those who were too tired to sleep and didn't hear it were still lying on the ground snoring loudly. Gu Yun kicked them directly in the stomach, and for a time, wails rose everywhere.

After finally finishing lining up, Gu Yun said angrily, "From now on, those who take more than ten seconds to line up will all go and kick the tree trunk one hundred times!"

How long is ten seconds? Everyone looked at each other, but didn't dare to provoke this tigress at this time. In short, the further away from her, the better!

Pointing to the mountain peak not far ahead, Gu Yun said loudly, "There is a rock wall three miles ahead. Ge Jingyun, take fifty people to move the ropes over, and the others run forward."

"Yes." This time, no one dared to hesitate and wonder what she wanted to do.

Watching the team go further and further, Han Shu hesitated for a while, but still followed. He also wanted to know what she wanted so many ropes and daggers for?

Soon, they arrived in front of the rock wall. This was a side peak connected to the back mountain. The mountain peak was not high, six or seven zhang, but the rock wall was extremely steep, like standing straight up. The mountain stones were scattered, and even trees could not grow on the rock wall.

A group of people stood under the rock wall, feeling uneasy, not knowing what strange method Gu Yun would come up with to train them again. They were both a little scared and inexplicably a little excited.

Gu Yun didn't let them guess for too long. Pointing to the smooth and steep rock wall, she said, "Those who can climb up bare-handed, step out."

Bare-handed? The soldiers gasped, looked at the bare rock wall without even a blade of grass again, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded. This—is it impossible! Unless it's a master of lightness skill, it's about the same. Ordinary people like them would have to risk their lives to go.

Han Shu also looked at Gu Yun suspiciously. Did she want their lives? Although it wasn't too high, falling down would cost them their lives! After deathly silence in the team, someone really walked out.

Ge Jingyun and Leng Xiao naturally didn't need to say, and behind them followed a dozen young guys. It could be seen that everyone was robust, no wonder they dared to try.

Twenty people. Gu Yun counted secretly, without showing any joy or anger on her face. Gu Yun said to them, "Everyone go and choose a hemp rope."

Twenty people, each with a hemp rope. Gu Yun pointed to two unusually lush and thick ancient trees on the top of the mountain whose branches had stretched out of the rock wall, and said, "Think of a way yourselves to pass the other end of the hemp rope in your hands through the branches above and hand it to me."

Pass through the tree trunk? The hemp rope in hand was as thick as a thumb, tough but very soft. How could it pass through the tree trunk six or seven zhang high?

Gu Yun didn't look at them, standing silently to one side.

Ge Jingyun looked up at the height, suddenly walked under the rock wall, held one end of the rope tightly, and began to swing it like drawing a circle.

Gu Yun sighed secretly. He wanted to use inertia to throw the rope up. The rope was so light, his arm strength must be very strong. Sure enough, after swinging dozens of times, Ge Jingyun let go, and the rope flew to the top of the mountain like a silver snake, wound around the tree trunk, and fell down slowly.

He succeeded, but it didn't mean others could use this method to throw the rope up. After thinking for a while, Leng Xiao walked to the pile of rubble under the rock wall, found a stone the size of a fist, tied the stone to one end of the rope, and threw it hard. The stone took the rope and easily wound around the tree branch and fell down.

Gu Yun raised her lips slightly. Not bad, she liked people with wisdom.

Leng Xiao's method was much easier, and others followed suit. Soon, everyone passed the rope through the tree branches on the top of the mountain and handed it to Gu Yun.

Gu Yun let them tie one end of the rope to their waists and prepare under the rock wall. Gu Yun handed the other end of the rope to the soldiers waiting below, and explained, "You don't need to pull them hard, just hold the rope tightly. If they accidentally fall, you pull the rope tight to protect them."

"Yes."

After making all safety preparations, Gu Yun shouted to the twenty people under the rock wall, "Up."

Obviously, many people overestimated their strength. Before climbing to one-third, four or five people had fallen, and those who managed to continue climbing were as slow as ants.

Gu Yun looked at Ge Jingyun. She thought that with such good arm strength, he should be the fastest one, but she was wrong. The fastest one was Leng Xiao. He walked lightly, his movements were very agile, and his coordination was particularly good. When he was almost at the top of the mountain, he actually stepped on a slightly protruding stone and leaped up. Was this the legendary lightness skill?

Looking at Ge Jingyun again, strong arm strength, steady steps, although a bit slow, he climbed up solidly.

Half an hour later, everyone finally returned to the ground. Only nine people completed this climbing process! Only nine! Gu Yun's face turned black, her eyes turned cold, and they knew it was bad. Sure enough, Gu Yun stood in front of the team, roared at a group of tall men, "Five hundred people, five hundred people! But only nine people succeeded in climbing up. If the enemy camp is on the cliff, how will you kill the enemy?"

Answering her were lowered heads.

Turning to stare at the few who had reached the peak but were slower than turtles, Gu Yun scolded, "You, you, you. A distance of less than ten zhang, and you climbed for two quarters of an hour. If you want to raid the enemy, this speed would have been discovered long ago. If the enemy throws stones and pours hot oil downward, do you still have your lives?"

Answering her were pairs of ashamed eyes.

Walking to Ge Jingyun and Leng Xiao, Gu Yun scolded them even more fiercely, "You two disappointed me the most! As captains, you have no team spirit at all. When you reached the peak, you didn't think about helping your comrades. A team that doesn't know how to unite and help each other is just a pile of loose sand!"

Answering her were two pairs of silent eyes.

Gu Yun finished roaring, turned her back, and was too lazy to ignore them. She had to calm down! She was really looking for trouble for herself. With this quality, training is also in vain!

For a long time, a strange muffled sound suddenly came from behind. Gu Yun turned around, only to see that group of hot-blooded men who gave her a headache were all kneeling on one knee, hands clasped, their firm and sincere eyes staring straight at her.

"We earnestly request the Boss to teach us the method of climbing the peak!" The uniform roar was deafening, and Gu Yun's heart was also shaken.
