Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

“We won’t be in any danger. Colonel Shao will protect us. Even though the truth is not pleasant to hear, I still want to tell you the truth that Colonel Shao was too embarrassed to say. During the drill, we only have one mission, and that is not to drag Colonel Shao’s team down.”

Jiang Yao spread out her hands and said, “I feel that protecting us from the enemy should be the most difficult mission for Colonel Shao’s team.”

“Miss Jiang, that is too hurtful. If I had known, I would not have asked you.” Liu Chao wanted to cry, but there were no tears. Was he a man?

No matter how the other six felt, Jiang Yao’s emotions did not change at all. Compared to going to the frontlines for a mission, that drill was not dangerous at all.

Jiang Yao guessed that the exercise must be a warm-up exercise. After that, there should be more extensive and more important real training.

Liu Chao and the rest felt uneasy while Jiang Yao was indifferent. Then, dawn arrived. Jiang Yao and the students, who had already changed into their uniforms, followed the soldiers in that exercise and sat for three hours in the military car before arriving at the site.

In the military car, Shao Fucheng explained how to use their weapons to Jiang Yao and the others. When the truck stopped at the foot of a mountain, Shao Fucheng asked Jiang Yao and the rest to carry their bags and get off the truck. Then, they followed him up the mountain.

The labels on their combat uniforms were red, which meant that they belonged to the red team. After reaching the mountain, Shao Fucheng further explained the exercise’s rules to Jiang Yao and the others. After walking for more than two hours, they finally found an empty area with a small and pitiful thatched cottage. On the roof of the thatched cottage was a red flag with the words Red Team command center.

“We’ve arrived at the command center. Everyone! Set up camp here.” Shao Fucheng called for a few people to help Jiang Yao and the others set up their tents first. Then, he went into the thatched cottage.

Jiang Yao followed Shao Fucheng into the cottage and looked around with interest. There were many things in there, like a few tables and a few communication devices on the tables.

After Shao Fucheng saw the communication devices, he went out and called a few soldiers to come in and fiddle with them. Those few devices were essential. The communication between the Red Team relied on those few devices to transmit signals. Except for Jiang Yao and the others, the other soldiers and every squad leader had a black communication device in their hands.

The thatched cottage had two open windows, but Jiang Yao did not think much of it. Perhaps if their enemies arrived, they could jump out of the window to escape their clutches. Of course, that was only doable if the cottage was not surrounded.

“Colonel Shao, has the exercise started?” Jiang Yao asked.

“It started when we arrived at the mountain. However, we first have to find our designated command center to set up camp. Our equipment is in the command center. We need the soldiers to turn on the equipment in our hands to be useful.”

Shao Fucheng treated Jiang Yao better than Jing Mengjie and the others. Perhaps it was because Jiang Yao had walked for two hours in the mountains without any complaint.

“You’re in charge of the people you brought here. Don’t let them run around and get caught by the Blue Team..” Shao Fucheng did not know where the logistics doctor in the Blue Team was from, but he thought that that person might also be a burden to their opponent team.
