Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Quick, quick… In a row, take down Iron Bones and the third regint!”
“Iron Bone in a row, they went for it! Take them down.”
“Third regint…”
Team competition was much more lively than individual competition.
In individual competitions, small teams competed separately.
During the matches, there were limited personnel on the sidelines, and many were competing together within the sa regint, so they mostly received encouragent from their own team mbers.
But then, it was different.
All the participants from the entire division were there to watch, and even the division commander and their staff didn’t watch the live broadcast from inside the tents.
They all stood on a platform erected by the side of the arena.
As a unit, the three regints competed simultaneously. As soon as the competition began, the atmosphere reached its peak.
Wang Ye was in the crowd, and he had no doubt that if there were no officers, division commanders, and even the army commander watching, the three regints cheering for their teams might have started fighting each other.
At that mont, in that atmosphere, the teams from the three regints were rapidly progressing through the competition.
They had already passed the second stage.
On the competition field, the results of the three platoons were closely matched. They had just co down from the high wall and were starting to throw grenades at the three-ter circular targets.
“Don’t shout anymore, the more you shout, the more nervous they get!”
The chief of staff ordered everyone not to shout encouragent anymore.
ntal state, in the previous individual competitions, except for the shooting events, was not significantly affected.
But now, it was a team competition, and the pressure of competing alongside other regints was high, and with their own regint constantly cheering, their pressure was even greater.
Watching each person throw their grenades.
From a distance of thirty ters, at a three-ter circular target, the mbers of the Iron Bone Heroic Regint’s first platoon were sweating profusely.
So perford well, getting two or three grenades in, but now the fifth person on the team had already thrown six grenades.
He had just thrown one in.
They had the fortune of not having a limit on the number of grenades they could throw; there was no elimination for failing to throw a certain number within a few attempts.
But each person only carried four grenades, so after they threw them all, they had to go pick up four more grenades, strap them to their bodies, and run back to throw them again.
“It’s taking too much ti.”
By now, in this event, soldiers from all three regints had gone to retrieve grenades.
One regint had two soldiers, and both the Iron Bone Heroes Regint and the Third Regint had one soldier each.
The tension in the air had silenced the cheers from the crowd, and the competitors on the field were getting anxious. They couldn’t help but glance at the progress of the other two platoons.
Finally, the Third Regint finished this round first, followed by the Iron Bone Heroic Regint a few seconds later.
The participants quickly rushed out.
“Seven minutes and forty-six seconds.”
“Seven minutes and forty-nine seconds.”
“Seven minutes and fifty-seven seconds.”
The results ca out one after another.
At this mont, a huge cheer erupted from the Third Regint’s side.
anwhile, it was quiet on the Iron Bone Regint and First Regint’s side.
“Heh heh!”
The Third Regint’s commander was still standing with the other commanders. His smile now mirrored General Hong’s from earlier. Especially when he turned to look at General Hong and the First Regint’s commander, his posture straightened noticeably.
“Hmph, it’s only the first round!” General Hong’s expression wasn’t pleasant at this mont.
The three teams that had just competed might not end up winning the first place, and they might not even make it into the top ten.
The first team to compete, under the most pressure, had taken quite a bit of ti picking up grenades while throwing them.
But, at least for now, that didn’t matter.
What mattered was that the Third Regint had won the first round.
“That’s right, let’s wait and see. The second round is starting soon, why are you in such a hurry?” The First Regint’s commander grumbled with a stern face. “Prepare for the second group!”
On the field, the referee’s tily announcent marked the beginning of the second round.
Still the First Regint, Third Regint, and the Iron Bone Heroic Regint, all three regints.
Where Wang Ye was standing now, it wasn’t far from the Second Platoon’s location.
The regint commander was absent at the mont, but the chief of staff was there.
Standing in front of the Second Platoon while they were checking their equipnt, the chief of staff spoke with a stern face, “The start wasn’t good. 1 hope you can win this round for our regint. Do you have the confidence?”
“Yes!”
The Second Platoon shouted in unison, and the platoon leader looked directly at the chief of staff, saying, “Sir, if the Second Platoon doesn’t succeed this ti, we’ll accept our fate. If the Second Platoon can’t win this round, the nine participants from our platoon, along with the two of us leading, will make straw shoes and march back on foot!”
The platoon leader’s words shocked Wang Ye and the others in line behind him.
That was ruthless.
They were actually willing to make straw shoes and march back on foot. They hadn’t even considered such a bet when they wagered with the Heavy Artillery Platoon and the Heavy Machine Gun Platoon.
This was over a hundred kiloters, and if they really had to march back wearing straw shoes, what condition would their feet be in?
Wang Ye didn’t know what condition their feet would be in, but right now, the Second Platoon all had the look of going all in, and they even shouted together, “We will win!”
None of them were backing down.
At this point, there was no way to back down, and they weren’t in the mood to think about what it would be like to really lose and march back wearing straw shoes.
They only had one belief: to win.
A similar scene also unfolded on the side of the First Platoon next to them. And because of what the Second Platoon leader of the Iron Bone Heroic Regint had said, the First Platoon leader also followed suit and declared, “If we don’t win, we’ll march back wearing straw shoes.”
Naturally, at this point, even the Second Platoon leader of the Third Regint on the side, though taken aback, had to grit his teeth and join in shouting the sa slogan.
While they had won the first round, they wanted to keep winning.
Furthermore, within the regint, it was only the First Platoon that had won, so it didn’t really concern the Second Platoon..
