Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 888: Chapter 889: Not Writing a Will

Since this is the final assessment task, which tests combat skills and overall strategy, the two instructors were only responsible for forming the teams and did not provide any guidance on other matters.

This means that how brilliantly they complete this task depends on Qi Taiguo’s past combat experience and what they have learned in this period.

Therefore, the two squads have to select their own commanding officer who will control the situation, that is, the team leader, and decide how to act, how to assault, how to set ambushes, and so on.

The team formed by Qi Taiguo is called the Tackle Hawks Team. Since the opponents are numerous and have hostages, the team consists of nine members.

After a vote, the Tackle Hawks Team determined their respective roles. Due to insufficient manpower, Qi Taiguo will hold two positions this time, reconnaissance and assault, and also be responsible for the safety of the hostages. This requires quick adaptability and alertness, making the task extremely challenging.

”Even though the opponents are drug traffickers, they have hostages, which weakens us a bit. Everyone needs to ensure the safety of the hostages, got it?” Commander Ren Yang said in a deep voice.

”Understood.”

”Alright, let’s continue formulating our tactics.” Ren Yang opened the map. Near the border is jungle terrain with rivers, making the terrain extremely complex.

The difficulty of this mission is compounded by the fact that they are not familiar with the terrain, whereas the opponent has already figured it out, representing another weakness.

Qi Taiguo looked at the map, listening to Ren Yang’s words, and gradually formed a vivid picture of the jungle in his mind, identifying the best assault points, the optimal hiding spots for ambushes, and the retreat locations.

Because of Cai Zhengyan, this hidden adversary, his role this time is a sniper, just like Wan Zhisen.

Wan Zhisen can be trusted for now, but Cai Zhengyan...

He must be wary of this person dragging him down, or worse, taking a shot at him from behind; in practical combat, killing someone is all too easy, and it can be attributed to the enemy or blamed on accidental misfires.

If Cai Zhengyan really targets him, he will not sit idly by.

Thinking of this, Qi Taiguo’s eyes became incredibly sharp.

After intense discussions and tactical planning, everyone packed their belongings as they had to set off at three in the morning.

”... Old Qi, why haven’t you written a single word?” Gao Linbing lifted his head from his lengthy ”letter” and saw Qi Taiguo sitting quietly pretending to nap, but the paper and pen in front of him were untouched.

For missions that are likely to be life-threatening, everyone usually writes down words to their family in advance, so if they die heroically, it serves as a final letter.

Therefore, before departure, everyone writes down these ”last words” just in case.

But Qi Taiguo didn’t write any.

Qi Taiguo opened his eyes and said, ”I won’t write.”

”Why? Is it taboo, bad luck?” Gao Linbing raised an eyebrow.

Qi Taiguo rolled his eyes at him, with a look that said ’you are truly boring,’ and gazed out the window at the dark sky with a crescent moon.

Squinching his eyes at the crescent moon, he said, ”I will only say my words directly to her, not write them on paper.”

In other words, for this mission, he will only succeed and not allow himself to fail, because he wants to speak his words directly to her face.

Therefore, he won’t write such a ’final letter’.

Upon hearing this, Gao Linbing suddenly understood, glanced at his own lengthy writings, and silently tore them up.

No failure is allowed, only success.

No sacrifice is allowed, only survival.
