Chapter 1200: Harassment

"Battalion Commander, this time the Blue Army is Old A again."

Somewhere in the exercise area, Shi Jin, acting as the squad leader of the battalion headquarters, watched Battalion Commander Gao Cheng finish reporting to the leaders and walked over after he had finished speaking.

"It is Old A, it's already confirmed." Gao Cheng nodded with a smile. "And I just received news that in the place where we used to guard during exercises, the... Regiment has been turned upside down. It is said that the Blue Army sent an elite squad to harass them. An hour and a half after the start of the war, they made five squads of theirs emit smoke and grabbed two fighting vehicles. Afterward, they charged wildly and grabbed three more fighting vehicles, galloping over there and leading the... Regiment by the nose."

"So fierce? When we practiced with Old A before, they weren't this ruthless. Why do I feel so familiar?" Shi Jin frowned and pondered.

"Does that even need thinking? It must be that brat Wang Yan who did it. I heard that he can even fly a fighter jet now; old pilots can't even beat him."

Gao Cheng, of course, knew that Wang Yan had been transferred to Old A. Originally, he was waiting for Wang Yan to come back to work under him, and he even went to find his father to exert some effort. As a result, in the end, watching the military academy studies come to an end, there was still no movement from Wang Yan, so he inquired again.

That day, he cursed Yuan Lang for most of the day, so angry that he didn't sleep well...

Shi Jin said, "Battalion Commander, do you think there is a possibility that Wang Yan and the others will come to hit us?"

"Very likely." Gao Cheng said irritably. "Otherwise, why do you think Wang Yan went to the original place? He was aiming for us. They thought we were still guarding that area for this exercise. But they didn't expect that I changed locations. Hey, they just can't hit us."

He laughed again.

"Then are you hoping they come, or not come?"

"What do you think?"

Shi Jin smiled. "Let them come; let's see if those three brats have made any progress."

"They don't need to make progress; they are already awesome one after another. If they make any more progress, wouldn't that be something?" Gao Cheng waved his hand and smiled. "Let them come; no matter what, I'll make them emit smoke, so they don't pick up Old A's stinky habits, with their noses growing on their eyes, not looking like human beings at all."

Gao Cheng cursed again; his resentment was extremely heavy. He could brag for a lifetime about having three soldier kings under his command, but they were all poached by Old A...

Wang Yan's awesome combat record was constantly being refreshed.

Actually, Wu Liu-yi was right; he was indeed freer, so the range he could exert was also larger. He led his men to fight for three days, ending two battalion headquarters and one regimental headquarters, and making countless people emit smoke.

At the beginning, the squad members would secretly count the results, but as they fought, they stopped counting, because they really couldn't remember them all; there were too many.

Of course, it was impossible to be unscathed. Wang Yan had nine people under his command, and five were reduced. Counting himself, there were five left, a combat loss of half. However, Xu Sanduo, Wu Liu-yi, and Wu Zhe were all there, plus one diligent and hardworking good soldier, counting Wang Yan, that was the current combination.

By this time, Wang Yan's actions also became low-key.

Because the reduction of firepower points caused a weakness in firepower. There was no way to support him to take the other four people to charge wildly and stir up the world again. If something went wrong and there was another slightly larger action, the four squad members would all emit smoke.

And in the situation where there were no live ammunition and all were blank cartridges, using equipment to emit infrared rays, Wang Yan also had no way to face the siege of so many people by himself. He had to open up the distance and expand the combat map.

So he had no choice but to lead the remaining squad members to constantly harass, rather than carrying out various surprise attacks. Only then could he be considered to be doing his own job.

This time, the duration of the contest was clearly longer. He remembered that the last time the Seventh Steel Company practiced with Old A, the battle had ended in three days.

In fact, the main battlefield was still electronic warfare. Although there was no smoke, the victory depended on it. The professional talents of the special warfare team needed to crack the Red side's communications, needed to suppress their various detections, needed to figure out the Red side's troop deployment through various mobilizations, and needed to find important forces such as air defense, artillery, etc. More importantly, it was to locate the Red side's command post through messy information and countless mobilizations.

The special warfare team did the work of using the smallest force to cause the largest range of damage. Undoubtedly, beheading the general and seizing the flag was the highest realm.

However, one couldn't say that Wang Yan's kind wasn't high either. After all, he led a squad and fought several regiments in three days, provoking encirclement from all sides, and the scope of destruction was the largest.

Just calculating the cost, a soldier was worth hundreds of thousands, a fighting vehicle was worth over a million, a tank was worth several million, and there were various other equipment, etc. Wang Yan had already caused over a hundred million in damage...

On the afternoon of the third day, Wang Yan and the others hid in the mountains and rested for a long time, finally recovering a certain state. After all, they had fought continuously for three days and two nights, with an average sleep of less than four hours per day, and had to carry out high-intensity combat, so they were all very exhausted.

Everyone ate to replenish energy, and Wang Yan contacted Yuan Lang, informing him that the rest was over and they could continue to invest in combat.

"How was the rest?"

"It's alright."

Yuan Lang said with a smile, "I'll tell you a piece of good news. Your old company commander's position has been found. How about it, are you interested in going over to greet him?"

"Of course, that's what I came for."

"Good, let your old company commander also feel what it's like to be powerless. He is... less than five kilometers away from you; you can arrange it yourself."

"Received."

"Captain, what's the situation?"

Wu Zhe had strong curiosity; he always wanted to investigate. Although he would inevitably know later, he always wanted to know in advance.

However, Wang Yan wouldn't hide it from him; his patience was still quite good. When facing a "question baby," he would patiently be an "answer baby" when his mood was not bad. And often, his mood was still okay.

He smiled and said, "Found our old company commander's position. The Squadron Leader asked me to go over and greet him."

"Good." Wu Liu-yi took over. "I'm really a bit impatient. Right, Sanduo?"

Xu Sanduo smiled foolishly. "It's quite interesting."

Wang Yan waved his hand. "Alright, hurry up and eat, tidy up and set off. Tonight we'll go over and harass them, and see what level their division reconnaissance battalion is."

So everyone chatted and laughed while eating and drinking.

Originally, there was no high emotion, as they were truly exhausted. But Wu Liu-yi and Xu Sanduo were both quite high-spirited and got into the mood, and Wang Yan wasn't bad either; he was always very stable. Naturally, this drove the emotions of Wu Zhe and another squad member, and they all became happy.

After eating, smoking, and relaxing for a while, everyone unhurriedly tidied up their equipment, re-armed, and marched toward the position where Gao Cheng was located.

By the time they walked to the vicinity at a normal marching speed, the sky had already darkened.

This side was also in the mountains and forests, leaning against the foot of the mountain. This, of course, wasn't good, but on the hillside, the mountaintop, and the open ground, it was even worse. War had changed; no matter how favorable the position was, it couldn't stop artillery bombardment.

Cannons, howitzers, gun-howitzers, mortars, mortar-howitzers, all kinds of these wouldn't work, and there were all kinds of tactical missiles that could track and cruise, strike from the sky and drill into the ground, could be precision-guided, and could even carry out area bombardment; there was always one suitable for all kinds of fortifications.

Especially under the support of a powerful industrial system's military industrial capability, "I have countless cannons, and I can bombard everywhere."

They didn't rashly attack or harass, but spent some time observing the area within two kilometers, and finally, the five people gathered again, summarized the situation, and then began to plan.

Wang Yan sat cross-legged on the ground, leaning against a tree, with a cigarette still in his mouth. On the open ground in front of him was the deployment situation they had just summarized.

He took the cigarette, flicked the ash, and said, "The old company commander learned his lesson. The squads in each place are units of two squads. This is to prevent us from assaulting. One squad can't stop us, but two squads can drag it out. If we attack, they defend; if we retreat, they chase. They will definitely bite us to death and strive for time to form an encirclement and then eat us up. I believe the brothers who came to harass before suffered this loss. Considering that it's our old company commander, we were sent over to harass and contain, and look for opportunities."

"It's all seen." Wu Zhe once again displayed his IQ and asked, "Captain, just tell us how to do it."

Wang Yan scanned the few people. Xu Sanduo smiled foolishly, with nothing in his eyes. Wu Liu-yi was smoking lazily, not thinking at all. The other soldier was holding his gun, looking straight at Wang Yan.

These three were all people who didn't think about anything, or rather, were too lazy to think, rather than truly stupid.

Shaking his head with a smile, Wang Yan pointed to a position on the ground. "I judge that the old company commander's battalion headquarters is here. Although it seems a bit far, it's not convenient for support. But on this side, we don't have a place to scout, so there must be support. This is a genuine chain of iron locks."

"For other squads, fighting two squads might be dragged down. But I believe that for us, it won't be. So there are no tactics; we'll just go straight and fight head-on, and that's it."

While speaking, he gestured on the ground so that the four people could see clearly.

The four people nodded simply, directly tidied up their things, stood up, and were about to start working.

Wang Yan asked, "Is everyone's state okay? If it goes smoothly, we won't run more than three kilometers. If it doesn't go smoothly, ten kilometers, twenty kilometers are all possible."

"It's already at this point, we definitely can't retreat; let's just do it." Wu Liu-yi was simple and direct.

Xu Sanduo and the others responded actively.

Wang Yan smiled, pinched out the cigarette butt on the ground, and waved his hand. "Set off!"

It was already night, and the weather today was very good; dark clouds covered the bright moon, and visibility was very low, which was a good time for a sneak attack.

The five people dispersed in a combat formation front, back, left, and right, sneaking over and solving the alert soldiers who had left the team by a distance. Then they touched to a closer distance and launched a surprise attack directly.

The crisp sound of gunfire was exceptionally loud in the quiet forest. In no more than three minutes, the dense gunfire gradually stopped, and Wang Yan and the others finished the battle.

Looking like he was patting the helmet of one of the old soldiers with disgust, Wang Yan laughed and scolded, "You guys were so fast, couldn't you leave us a fighting vehicle?"

Gan Xiaoning didn't stand on ceremony either, hammered Wang Yan's chest with a fist, and laughed, "We just started fighting, and our squad's brothers all emitted smoke; I knew it must be you who came, so definitely nothing could be left for you."

"What's going on? You only saw him, and didn't see the two of us?" Wu Liu-yi came over and gave him a kick that wasn't light or heavy.

Gan Xiaoning leaned in to look, greeting with surprise, "Oh my, Squad Deputy! Sanduo! You three are all in one team?"

"More than that, this is our captain." Wu Liu-yi patted Wang Yan's shoulder.

Xu Sanduo also nodded with a smile. "We all listen to him."

Gan Xiaoning smiled, "It sounds like we didn't listen to him before. Who is this? This is my Brother Yan. Dear brother, you don't know, I've missed you so much these two years."

"Get lost, you brat, your intentions are sinister. Dragging out time here, waiting for us to emit smoke, right?"

Wang Yan went over and threw Gan Xiaoning, who had crowded in to get close, to the ground. "Not even a shred of awareness of being a dead person, let's go, we'll talk later."

Gan Xiaoning lay on the ground following the momentum. "Don't, let's chat a bit more, Brother Yan, it's not easy to meet once, let's have a good catch-up."

"Get lost, get lost, get lost."

Wang Yan kicked him irritably, then waved his hand. "Retreat!"

The five-person squad turned and ran into the deeper part of the forest, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye...

"Squad Leader, was that Wang Yan just now?" a soldier asked.

"Yes, before, when I mentioned Wang Yan, you all weren't convinced. How about this time? Five of them, without injury, made twenty of us emit smoke. Convinced now?" Gan Xiaoning lay on the ground, looking at the dark sky.

He said, "The two who were just made to emit smoke by me, they were also from our squad. Each one is a soldier king, one more powerful than the other."

"Squad Leader, didn't you also participate in the Old A selection last year? You almost passed."

"Almost, almost. Do you know how much that 'almost' is?"

Gan Xiaoning sat up, waved his hand, and said, "Alright, we've rested enough, hurry up and tidy up and retreat. Don't get in the way."

"Squad Leader, tell us more about those soldier kings? Let us see."

"Let me talk about our Squad Deputy first; that was more than four years ago, when I first became a soldier..."

So everyone, while busy tidying up, listened to Gan Xiaoning tell stories about Wang Yan and the others.

After a few minutes, dense gunfire rang out in the forest again.

Gan Xiaoning smiled, "They didn't go far; they're setting up an ambush for us."

Immediately, he shook his head, stopped worrying about those, and continued chatting and laughing while busy...

Gao Cheng ended the call and smiled at Shi Jin on the side. "Wang Yan is here."

"So fast?"

"This is even slow." Gao Cheng shook his head and smiled. "Speaking of which, it's interesting. The first wave they assaulted was Gan Xiaoning's side. The battle ended in three minutes; the special warfare team isn't Superman, I've only seen Wang Yan be this fierce. This combat effectiveness is too representative."

"Then he must be coming to find us. Battalion Commander, we'd better be careful."

"Definitely be careful. If they end my nest, then..."

Facing Shi Jin's smiling gaze, Gao Cheng smiled. "Whoever laughs at me, let them go and fight Wang Yan, and see if they can beat him."

Shi Jin laughed.

Gao Cheng didn't care, because ever since Wang Yan became heaven-defyingly awesome, being made to emit smoke by Wang Yan had never been a shameful thing.

The exercise evaluation was also like this, because Wang Yan was too awesome, so those who were made to emit smoke by Wang Yan had very few points deducted, but those who made Wang Yan emit smoke had many points added.

In the series of exercises before, every battle, the soldiers who discovered Wang Yan's position and made him emit smoke for the first time, as well as the soldiers who fired the cannons, all had very good results.

Because discovering Wang Yan, providing coordinates, and guiding the artillery bombardment, as long as Wang Yan was made to emit smoke, everyone had merit...

This was the highest recognition the military superiors had for Wang Yan... ===== CHAPTER 1201 =====

The exercise evaluation is the same; precisely because Wang Yan is so overpowered, those who are killed by him have very few points deducted, but those who kill Wang Yan get a lot of points added.

In the series of exercises before this, in every single battle, the soldiers who were the first to discover Wang Yan's position and get "smoked," as well as the soldiers who fired the artillery, all achieved excellent results.

Because discovering Wang Yan, providing coordinates, and guiding the artillery fire—as long as they "smoked" Wang Yan, everyone earned credit...

This is the highest recognition the unit commanders have for Wang Yan...
