296: Drive away the wolf pack.
"Thank you, Comrade-in-arms."
"You're welcome."
Xiao Niannian listened to the wolf howls, knowing that the wolves were getting closer to them.
Xiao Niannian looked ahead and saw a wolf running towards them.
Behind this wolf were many other wolves, each much larger than the wolves in the south, and their fur was very glossy.
Hearing the wolf howls, neither Xiao Niannian nor her Comrades-in-arms were afraid, but the two old Soldiers' faces instantly changed when they saw over twenty wolves.
With so many wolves, even though they had knives and daggers, wolves moved very quickly and attacked fiercely. Could they really fight off so many wolves?
Several people might get injured.
Thinking of this, the two old Soldiers stepped forward.
"We've dealt with wolves before, we know how to handle them. You all step back..."
At such a time, these two old Soldiers stepped forward, wanting to protect Xiao Niannian and her Comrades-in-arms.
Xiao Niannian and her Comrades-in-arms naturally understood and were very touched.
"Comrades-in-arms, step back. We can handle these wolves."
Hearing Squad Leader Li's words, the two Comrades-in-arms still didn't retreat, while Xiao Niannian had already aimed at the foremost wolf.
"Howl."
A wolf howled and leaped towards them, but the next second, Xiao Niannian's arrow was released.
"Whoosh."
The wolf was hit by the arrow, fell to the ground, and rolled a few times.
This scene stunned the two old Soldiers.
Meanwhile, the other wolves charged towards Squad Leader Li and his Comrades-in-arms.
The two old Soldiers watched as these Comrades-in-arms fought the wild wolves with knives and daggers. They were extremely worried, expecting the Comrades-in-arms to get injured, but to their surprise, these Comrades-in-arms moved incredibly nimbly. Several of them dodged the wolves' attacks while simultaneously striking with their knives and daggers.
Some slashed the wolves' necks, others their legs, and even those who didn't wound the wolves still evaded their attacks.
These Comrades-in-arms were much more formidable than they had imagined.
Could it be that these Comrades-in-arms were also scout Soldiers? They had noticed their excellent reconnaissance skills along the way. Now, they were even more convinced that these Comrades-in-arms must be scout Soldiers; only scout Soldiers could be this formidable.
The two old Soldiers hadn't even thought of Special Forces; they had never heard of them. In their understanding, scout Soldiers were the most powerful warriors.
However, at this moment, they had no time to think further. Seeing the wild wolves charging, they immediately grabbed their knives and went to meet them.
Xiao Niannian fired three arrows consecutively, all hitting three wild wolves. Xiao Niannian looked at the wolf pack and noticed one that was particularly large and had much shinier fur than the others. She immediately aimed at that wolf.
At this moment, that wolf howled loudly, as if ordering the pack to retreat.
"Howl..."
Xiao Niannian's arrow was released simultaneously.
"Whoosh."
This arrow directly struck the body of the alpha wolf.
The alpha wolf howled in pain.
Xiao Niannian watched the alpha wolf, preparing to strike again, but the alpha wolf immediately turned and bolted into the forest, while the other wolves also quickly retreated, leaving behind several wolf carcasses.
The two old Soldiers watched the wolves retreat swiftly. They wanted to pursue, but Xiao Niannian spoke.
"Don't pursue."
Their combat power was strong now, but if they scattered, they would fall into the wolves' trap. Wolves were very cunning.
Hearing Platoon Leader Xiao's words, the two old Soldiers nodded.
They looked at Platoon Leader Xiao with some surprise. Just now, Platoon Leader Xiao used that small bow and arrow to swiftly shoot three arrows, all hitting wolves. This technique was extraordinary. Over the years, they had learned a bit themselves and had gone hunting in the mountains with villagers from the Military Unit. The skilled hunters among the villagers were as good as Comrade Xiao's hunting technique.
"Platoon Leader Xiao, Squad Leader Li, you are truly amazing."
"You must be scout Soldiers, I'm impressed."
Hearing their compliments, Xiao Niannian pursed her lips.
Squad Leader Li and the other Comrades-in-arms would have laughed at the words of these two old Soldiers if the timing hadn't been inappropriate.
"The wolves' backs can be used for food, and their hides can be made into clothes and hats..." Xiao Niannian said.
"We'll carry them immediately. We've hunted wolves before, and the taste is quite good..."
"Wipe away the bloodstains here..."
Xiao Niannian instructed her Comrades-in-arms.
The two old Soldiers watched these people act quickly, their hearts filled with shock. Their speed was truly astonishing.
"Continue searching."
Xiao Niannian led her Team Members further ahead. After walking for a short while, they heard wolf howls again.
Xiao Niannian listened carefully to the surrounding sounds. After a while, she didn't hear anyone speaking, so the Comrades-in-arms continued to call out to those people.
Xiao Niannian thought of the loudspeakers from later generations. She planned to hand-make a few and give them to the Soldiers here, so they could be useful in the future.
"Platoon Leader Xiao, Captain Lu has contacted us..."
Hearing her Comrade-in-arms's words, Xiao Niannian walked over.
She heard Lu Jing's voice coming from the radio.
"Platoon Leader Xiao, have you found those two teams and the six missing villagers on your side?"
"Reporting, Captain Lu, we have not yet found the Comrades-in-arms from the two teams and the six villagers..."
Xiao Niannian spoke a few words with Lu Jing.
"Maintain contact. If there's any news, report it immediately..."
"Yes."
Xiao Niannian looked into the distance. From here, she could see the river below, and the terrain here was somewhat steep, with the path even more difficult than before.
"How far is the nearest boundary marker from here?"
"About one kilometer away."
"Let's go check over there."
Xiao Niannian checked her watch. There was still enough time. She suspected that people from the Polar Bear Nation might have crossed over, and the villagers had been discovered by them.
And those Soldiers might have clashed with the people from the Polar Bear Nation.
Their Soldiers didn't carry many weapons, and the Polar Bear Nation's weapons and equipment were excellent. If their Comrades-in-arms encountered the people from the Polar Bear Nation, they would definitely be crushed, a situation extremely unfavorable to them.
Xiao Niannian shared her conjecture with Squad Leader Li and Fang Qiang.
"I agree with Platoon Leader Xiao's idea. The Polar Bear Nation has always coveted our border..." Fang Qiang immediately said.
Squad Leader Li nodded with a serious expression.
"I also agree with Platoon Leader Xiao's idea. This matter should be reported to Captain Lu, or to the local unit here..."
Several Special Combat Members agreed with Xiao Niannian's idea.
They had dealt with the Polar Bear Nation and the Americans many times and knew they were no good. They were capable of anything.
Xiao Niannian called Lu Jing again.
"Platoon Leader Xiao."
"Captain Lu, I have a conjecture..."
