Chapter 77: Wolf Fang Squad's First Battle
"Sister-in-law, you can rest assured and go with your brother to recuperate. I will take care of this matter."
"Ah." Yu Yan heard Karyn's term of endearment and a flush appeared on her stunning face.
In the stone house where the Wolf Fang Squad resided, Kayan's icy face swept across the Wolf Fang Squad leaders in front of him.
"Commander, you've gathered us all here. Is there a mission?" Qian Duoduo asked with an excited expression. It had been almost a year since they entered the Death Forest, and during this time, except for training, it was still just training. They were all about to suffocate from the monotony and couldn't wait to find something to do right away.
Wang Xiong saw Kayan with an icy expression, his heart slightly moved, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"That's right, this time I've called you here, there are some things for you to do, but I don't know if you have the guts."
"Commander, I don't like hearing that. Although the cultivation of our Wolf Fang team members may not be high, each and every one of us is a man of honor. We may fear other things, but we never fear death. What task do you have for us? Just give the order, if Zheng Xiaohu frowns, he's not human." Zheng Xiaohu stood up first and said loudly.
"That's right, Chief Instructor! We all crawled out of piles of dead men. If it weren't for the boss and your guidance, we wouldn't have achieved what we have today. Speak up! Whatever task you give us, we'll do our best to complete it!" Qian Duoduo and others also shouted in agreement.
Kai Yan saw Qian Duoduo and others, each with a generous and heroic appearance, their faces showing relieved smiles. The next moment, she tightened her small face and said in a cold voice: "Everyone, today's task has something to do with my brother. I've already found out what hurt him, so this time's task is to help my brother and sister-in-law get revenge. However, first, I must declare that this task is very dangerous. If things go wrong, you will all be in danger. If anyone among you doesn't want to participate in this task, they can quit now. I won't stop them. Because the person we are going to deal with this time is the number one of the five major families of the Martial Arts Continent - the Tian Family."
"What?" Qian Duoduo and the others heard Kai Yan's words, first stunned, then immediately stood up with a furious expression: "Head coach, you also look down on us? Yes, our cultivation is not as good as others, but we value team spirit. Moreover, our boss has spoken, if we can't do it openly, are we afraid to do it secretly? Everyone has two arms and one head, Head coach, give the order! If we frown, we don't deserve to be underlings of the boss."
"That's right, isn't it? What's so great about it? Chief Instructor, you tell us! What do you want us to do?"
Qian Duoduo and others dare to say such things, mainly because they followed Zhang Huaming's modern management concepts after learning, no longer the feudal ideas of this Wulin continent. Moreover, Zhang Huaming's training method for Wang Xiong at that time basically incorporated military management concepts, so slowly, the members of the Wolf Fang team were brainwashed and became obedient to orders as their duty.
Kaiyan stretched out his palm and pressed it, the noisy conference room immediately fell silent. Then Kaiyan made a suggestive eye gesture to Zhang Kaifu, who immediately took out a painting from behind the conference room and spread it directly on the stone table in the conference room.
"Everyone understands this map, right?"
"En." Qian Duoduo and others nodded in unison, what a joke, as a military commander, how could there be someone who can't understand maps, then how did they qualify to be commanders.
"Qian Duoduo, you lead a team of people here, remember, give you a week's journey time, after arriving, you only have three days to prepare, on the fourth night, you can launch an action, no matter what the battle is like, you must remember, there are only three hours of fighting time, once the time is up, immediately retreat to this point, don't be obsessed with the fight, understand?" Ka Yan's appearance at this moment was not like a child, but rather like a great general commanding thousands of troops.
"I understand."
"Then you immediately gather your men and set off."
"Yes." Qian Duoduo clenched his fist and said, then immediately left the conference room.
Zheng Xiaohu.
Arrived.
"You lead a team to this location, remember, I gave you the same amount of time and money as everyone else. You only have one week's journey time, after arriving here, you only have three days' preparation time. On the fourth night, take action, just like before, you only have three hours of battle time. Once the time is up, withdraw immediately, got it?"
"I understand."
"Go!"
"It is." Zheng Xiaohu said with a clenched fist.
"Haiyun"
Arrived.
"You're bringing a whole team to this point... Do you understand?"
"I understand."
The Wolf Fang team leaders left the conference room one by one, and the waiting Wolf Fang team members outside also left in batches from the Death Forest. In total, they were divided into ten batches of fifty people each, dispersing in all directions around the Ghost City.
"Chief Instructor, what are we going to do now?" Wang Xiong saw that Kayan had dispatched everyone else to carry out tasks, but he himself had no task, and as a hot-blooded person, how could he not be anxious?
"We'll just wait for them to return here."
"Ah!" Wang Xiong heard Kaiyan's words and his face revealed a disappointed expression as he let out an "ah".
"Haha!" Karyn saw the disappointed look on Wang Xiong's face and couldn't help but laugh: "Big silly bear, you really think we have nothing to do? You're wrong, next is the assignment of tasks for us two. This time our tasks are not easy, you need to prepare yourself mentally."
"Got a task?" Wang Xiong heard Kai Yan's words, his eyes suddenly sparkled with a sharp light, and he had an eager expression, as if he had picked up some kind of ultimate beauty. He hastily opened his mouth to say: "You can rest assured, I'm not afraid of being tired."
"Listen up, you're going... this way... then... got it?"
"En en en en en!" Wang Xiong's head nodded like a chick pecking at grain, following Karyn's words in his ear, as if he was afraid that if he nodded any slower, the task would be cancelled.
"Big Dumb Bear, if there's even a slight mistake in this mission, the Wolf Fang Squad will suffer heavy losses. So remember, don't think you can just rush into battle because you're eager for a fight, got it?" Kartan said with a serious expression.
Wang Xiong's expression changed slightly after hearing this, and then a resolute look appeared on his face as he nodded and said: "Head Instructor, rest assured, although I've mixed with some unsavory characters over the years, I would never joke around with my brothers' lives."
"Alright, that's enough from you. You can go now! Be careful on the road. If you encounter an unbeatable enemy, notify me immediately using the method I taught you, and I'll rush over as fast as possible."
"Alright, got it. I'll go prepare first."
"Go!"
As Kayan's orders went down one by one, the members of Wolf Fang Squad disappeared into the Forest of Death and reappeared in the southern part of the Martial Continent, which was the territory of the five major aristocratic families.
A week's time is still a bit of time for ordinary people, but for cultivators, it's just a flash. In the blink of an eye, the Wolf Fang team members have already left the Death Forest for a week.
"What? What did you say?" Tian Feng's face turned red with anger as he shouted at the high-ranking official who had come to report the news in the headquarters of the Tian family.
"House Master, last night Linglong City was in great chaos. Our reserve troops were slaughtered in their own barracks." A high-ranking member of the Tian House replied, trembling.
"A bunch of useless people!" Tianfeng's face turned red with rage as he scolded loudly, after a while, he calmed down the anger in his heart and asked gloomily: "Have you calculated the losses? How many men did we lose?"
"As for going home, the ten people who were injured have already been accounted for."
"How much?"
"This...". The person reporting stuttered and hesitated, with an expression of wanting to say something but not daring to.
"Stop beating around the bush and tell me, how many casualties did we suffer?" Tianfeng's expression turned even darker, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.
"As for going back home, we lost eight thousand men."
"Eight thousand?!" Tianfeng stood up from his chair, his face filled with rage and fury. "You bunch of good-for-nothings! Didn't you even pursue them?! The enemy didn't even leave a shadow behind, yet you've lost eight thousand men?! Do you know that these eight thousand were the elite of our military?! A group of useless trash, get out! Get out!!"
The high-ranking officials of the Tianjia family, standing in the grand hall of the Tianjia mansion, heard their master's words and ran away one by one, not wanting to bear the brunt of their master's anger, lest they wouldn't even know how they died. In an instant, the entire hall was left with only the sound of Tianfeng's roar echoing through it.
