235: Damage the communication device.
The two military dogs heard the sentries' words, wagged their tails, but said nothing.
Xiao Niannian and another Soldier rushed up and immediately pinned down two Comrades-in-arms.
"According to the rules, the two of you are already dead... If you agree with me, nod vigorously and blink a few times."
Xiao Niannian lowered her voice, pressing the back of her knife against one of their necks.
Hearing Xiao Niannian's words, the two Soldiers nodded vigorously and blinked.
Xiao Niannian and the Comrades-in-arms released them.
"We are Comrades-in-arms from the Division Headquarters' Reconnaissance Battalion..."
Squad Leader Li, Company Commander Yun, and a few others stepped forward.
Hearing Squad Leader Li's words, the two sentries looked at Squad Leader Li with some joy.
"Squad Leader Li."
Squad Leader Li saw them and greeted them with a smile.
"Xiao Zhou, Xiao Yu."
These two Soldiers were also new recruits Squad Leader Li had trained.
Xiao Niannian listened to them talk, her gaze sweeping the surroundings.
They were still dozens of meters away from those bungalows. She could sense many people there, but she couldn't hear much noise yet.
Had the Instructors of the Special Forces Brigade already arrived?
They used fishermen's boats, while the Instructors of the Special Forces Brigade used boats from the Naval Military Unit. There was no comparison; they were completely crushed.
Xiao Niannian gave Squad Leader Li and Company Commander Yun a few hand signals.
Xiao Niannian took out the training landmines, smoke bombs, and other items she had made and distributed them to the Comrades-in-arms.
"These are all for training..."
They still had to scout the situation inside the houses. Xiao Niannian guessed that the hostages would definitely not be easy for them to find. They might be in a cellar on the island, or some other location.
And the Instructors were now here waiting for them to walk into the trap.
She was going to catch them completely off guard. They would never imagine she had so many training landmines and smoke bombs; she had even made some blank rounds... "I'm going to take people to continue scouting now. You guard the sentry tower..."
"Understood."
"Roger."
Xiao Niannian led the Comrades-in-arms to continue creeping forward.
"Today is already the sixth day, and none of the six competing teams have arrived on the island yet. The regiments in the Division Headquarters are too weak..."
Xiao Niannian heard the people inside the house talking.
"Logically, someone should be arriving now. Didn't they say the Reconnaissance Battalion had already reached the county seat..."
Xiao Niannian pursed her lips and smiled.
The reason the Instructors on this island hadn't received the news was because when they reached the seaside, they destroyed the signal of that liaison station.
Of course, she didn't destroy the communicator they used to contact the Division Headquarters, but she saw their communicators, and one of them was for contacting the island. She removed a component and slightly damaged the wiring inside.
Even if they tried to fix it, it wouldn't be repaired until tomorrow.
They would rescue the hostages and complete the mission tonight. Once the communicator was fixed tomorrow, the subsequent teams would face a joint strike from the Instructors and this company... "Call the liaison person by the sea..."
"Report, the seaside liaison point cannot be contacted..."
"The wind on the sea surface is a bit strong right now, maybe the signal is too poor..."
Xiao Niannian listened to these people talking and confirmed there were more than ten people in that room.
"I heard the Reconnaissance Battalion performed very well, but this time, they surely won't expect that the Instructors of our Special Forces Brigade will move against them..."
"This time, all six Competing Teams will probably be completely wiped out."
"Not necessarily. Comrade Xiao Niannian from the Reconnaissance Battalion is extremely capable. Comrades-in-arms from First Team have gone on missions with her a few times, and I've heard them praise her..."
"You heard First Team praise her?"
"They were probably just pulling your leg. If the Reconnaissance Battalion really had such a good prospect, she would have been absorbed into First Team long ago. Why would they wait for us, Second Team and Third Team, to find out..."
Hearing these words, Xiao Niannian understood.
The ones guarding the island were members of the Special Forces Brigade's Second Team and Third Team.
"If First Team hadn't gained the initiative, our Second Team and Third Team would never have lost to them."
"This time, none of the elites from our Second Team and Third Team have been deployed. Dealing with ordinary Soldiers from the Division Headquarters, we people are enough..."
Xiao Niannian listened to these people talking and understood their identities.
The Elites of First Team were responsible for following the six teams during the wilderness survival training and protecting the safety of the Team Members. The Ordinary Soldiers of Second Team and Third Team were sent to guard the island.
They intended to prevent all six Competing Teams from completing the mission, and also to let everyone in the Division Headquarters know how vast the gap was between the Special Forces Brigade and the Division Headquarters.
"Although we only recently joined the Special Forces Brigade, in our former Military Units, we were also the most outstanding. No matter how capable the people from the Division Headquarters' Reconnaissance Battalion are, they can't possibly win against us..."
"That's right."
"Don't underestimate the people from the Reconnaissance Battalion. There are still many outstanding people there. Maybe they will win against you..."
Someone spoke up in rebuttal.
Hearing that person's words, the speaker from before scoffed.
"You really boost others' morale while destroying your own prestige."
"Just wait and see. This time, we're going to wipe out these six Competing Teams."
"With them being like this, they still want to participate in the Entire Military Unit's competition? Dream on."
Xiao Niannian ran forward again, and after a while, she understood the situation of these few bungalows.
"There are over thirty people in these few rooms, and in the two rows of bungalows fifty meters away, there are also over twenty Soldiers... They have a cellar here..."
Xiao Niannian discussed the surrounding situation with Squad Leader Li and the others.
After the group discussed, Xiao Niannian began to assign tasks.
"I will be responsible for here. Squad Leader Li, you are responsible for the area fifty meters away. Company Commander Yun, you are responsible for leading people to the cellar..."
"Yes."
"Yes."
Squad Leader Li and Company Commander Yun listened to Xiao Niannian and immediately took action.
"It's getting late, and there's still no news. Everyone prepare to rest."
"That's right. Training during the day and setting up so many traps at night these past few days is indeed tiring."
"The people on guard duty still have over an hour before the shift change..."
They didn't know that their sentry post had already been dealt with by Xiao Niannian and the others; they were now tied up and gagged.
They had been in the Special Forces Brigade for one or two years, and their strength was much greater than that of Ordinary Soldiers. Unexpectedly, they were caught in a single encounter today.
These people were extremely frustrated, feeling they had been careless. And these competition Team Members were also very cunning... Xiao Niannian immediately took out several smoke bombs and a few training landmines... "Why is there so much smoke?"
"Did a fire start?"
"Quickly turn on the flashlight and look."
"It's on fire."
