Chapter 2822: Alternative Captain

"I am the captain of this operation. It doesn't matter what your name is. Whether you know me or not, you will all remember me deeply after this mission."

Xiao Yi's eyes swept over the crowd. Some of these people were younger than Xiao Yi, and some were a few years older than Xiao Yi.

They were all full of expectations for this mission. Xiao Yi had been the same as them, but these people had not really experienced it.

"It's more than four o'clock in the morning. Everyone is pretty good. At least I am very satisfied with your performance now. Now I will give the first order."

The twelve people were waiting. Xiao Yi was the captain of this operation. Everything had to be arranged by Xiao Yi.

"The first order is to rest in place. After you have recovered your spirit, we will set off when it gets light."

Xiao Yi led the team to carry out the mission this time. The helicopter could not reach the destination directly. If the helicopter was close to the border, it would be discovered by the drug dealers.

After noticing the actions of the Chinese side, they would become hidden. In order not to expose their whereabouts, they defeated all the drug dealers at once and chose to gather at a place 30 kilometers away from the target location.

The rest of the journey requires hiking through the jungle, climbing mountains and wading through water. For these physically fit and well-trained people, this is not a problem.

"Wang Sheng, this is your first time to follow us. Go and take a rest. If you don't rest well, you will suffer on the road ahead."

Xiao Yi reminded Wang Sheng that Wang Sheng always complained and disliked his boring life before. This time Xiao Yi took him with him to let him feel what excitement is.

"I know, Brother Xiao, it's just walking. I'm not so delicate. I can bear this little bit of suffering."

"I hope so."

Xiao Yi ordered everyone to rest first. Night Owl and Manniu knew the rules and were responsible for being on guard.

The newcomers dispersed and sat down to rest against the tree trunk. They lost their expectations for the captain in their hearts. They always felt that being a captain should not be like this.

At least at the beginning, they should say some passionate words to inspire everyone's morale. As a result, they just said a few words here, which was completely like sending people away.

"Is our captain this time reliable? Why do I feel that he is not as good as me?"

"I feel the same way, but since it is arranged like this, we have to obey orders."

"It is really unfair that we have to listen to the orders of such a person. After all, I am also the top of the army, and I have been selected through layers of selection."

Xiao Yi was leaning against the tree trunk and taking a nap. The mutterings of these newcomers were very small, but they all reached Xiao Yi's ears.

He pretended not to hear these words, and did what he had to do, and acted according to his own plan. He just had a lot of ways to deal with some newcomers.

The sky gradually brightened up, and the surrounding environment could be seen clearly. These newcomers gathered together consciously, full of expectations for the mission, and very disappointed with their captain.

They had all gathered, and saw their captain, leaning against a tree, lying there to rest, looking very comfortable, with one leg crossed.

"What kind of person is this? How can a captain be like this?"

"Yes, we have all gathered, and he is still lying there leisurely. Is he going to sleep here directly?"

Although Zhou Hongtao didn't know what Xiao Yi was going to do, he believed in Xiao Yi's ability. After hearing the discussions of these people, Zhou Hongtao said at this time.

"Be quiet, everyone, you are talking too much!"

The political commissar spoke here, and they quieted down. After a while, Night Owl came to Xiao Yi's side, squatted down and said.

"Captain... It's time to act!"

Xiao Yi slowly opened his eyes and saw that everyone was standing here looking at him. He straightened up and stretched his waist.

"Oh... Are you all ready? If you are ready, let's go. Night Owl and Manniu, you two follow behind and take care of anything."

"Understood, Captain!"

This is their rule. The old bird follows behind to prevent some people from falling behind. This time they are not going out for a trip.

Xiao Yi stood up slowly, carrying a bag on his back and walked in front of the team. Looking at these newcomers, each of them had a look of resentment in his eyes, and said with a smile.

"Sorry, I'm a little tired. Let's start now. Follow me. You are all top students selected from various places. There should be no problem with physical fitness, right?"

"No problem!"

The newcomers said proudly. Xiao Yi nodded with satisfaction. He walked in front, and the others followed closely behind him. The team headed southwest.

Thirty kilometers of hiking is not a difficult task, but the complex environment in the mountains here sometimes requires a good route planning. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is climbing mountains and wading through water.

The climate here is close to the tropics. It is humid and hot in the jungle. As soon as the sun rises, it feels like there is a breath in the chest and it is difficult to breathe.

The newcomers followed Xiao Yi closely. At first, it was okay, but after walking on the mountain road for an hour, they began to have a clear gap with Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi saw that some people had already started to breathe, but for the sake of face, they were still holding on here. He turned back this time and said.

"My feet are used to walking. If any of you are tired and want to rest, just tell me and we will stop and rest for a while."

The newcomers could hear what Xiao Yi meant. They thought Xiao Yi was nothing special before, so how could he admit defeat at this time.

So even if they couldn't walk, they would hold on here and would never give in. Their eyes were firm. 、

"Well, since you can still walk, let's continue on our way. Although the straight-line distance is 30 kilometers, the mountain road is winding and we have only walked less than one-tenth of it now."

What does one-tenth mean? Such a tiring physical activity only took one-tenth of the distance. We have to continue walking.

Wang Sheng's legs were numb. He finally realized what Xiao Yi said. Don't regret following him. But now there is no room for regret.

"What... one-tenth... Xiao... Captain, is this true?"

Xiao Yi knew that Wang Sheng would have such a reaction. Wang Sheng had not been trained, and it was good enough for him to follow closely.

"Do you think I'm kidding you? I've already told you that it's so nice to stay in the city and sleep with a woman, but you have to follow me to suffer."

"Brother Xiao, stop talking. You're just trying to be brave. Since I've said it before, I won't go back on my word. I'll crawl over there even if I have to."

"Good job. When you can't walk anymore, I'll get you a cane."
