The Queen's Rise to the Top

241 - 250

Shen Tang: "Hey! Let me talk to your commander!"

The Lingshan communications soldier knew what he was up to and silently handed over the communications device.

Shen Tang: "Reporting! I am Shen Tang from the Oriental Sword Combat Team. I am applying to Lingshan Military Region for material support! We need ammunition, food and water! Over!"

They didn't have much supplies left for the five of them. Eating was not a problem, they could fill their stomachs by hunting some wild animals and fruits.

But ammunition was truly scarce!

The officer from Lingshan Military Region soon expressed that supplies would be delivered via airdrop.

Along with the engineers!

With the supplies settled, Shen Tang was overjoyed.

He gave the melted chocolate back to Teng Shihai: "Here you go, I don't want it anymore!"

Teng Shihai: "......"

You snatched people's chocolate and melted it and now you're giving it back?

My hand is all sticky!

Ren Hongxin was still relatively calm. He scolded Shen Tang and said to Teng Shihai, "Sorry, we're used to robbing supplies overseas. It's a bit rough."

Teng Shihai: "......"

You guys rob when fighting overseas?!

Lu Xingxiu came over with a smile and said, "Don't mind, little warrior!"

The 7 of them all looked much younger than the 5 special forces soldiers.

But Teng Shihai still shared the other things in his bag, and the others also left supplies.

Special forces earned their hardship!

Those assigned overseas even more so. Just staying alive was good enough.

Shen Tang smiled and took them over: "Then I won't stand on ceremony!"

No matter what troops, they were all family when they met abroad.

Nan Xiangwan watched from the side, roughly understanding in her heart.

So you could rob supplies abroad!

The 5 members of the Orietal Sword stayed in place waiting for the airdropped supplies.

The 7 members of Nan Xiangwan's team quickly regrouped and headed back.

The plane ride here was fast but going back was miserable. The dense jungle made it impossible for vehicles to get in.

Over a hundred kilometers on foot!

They had to keep walking until they reached a place with roads for the base vehicles to pick them up.

Nan Xiangwan didn't care. She took it as cross-country training.

Although she didn't want to go back now, unfortunately there were no clues about finding people so there was no direction to search. Plus she wasn't allowed to act alone.

On the way back,

Teng Shihai came over, "Team leader, give us a smile! As a new soldier you took out 4 enemy combatants. That's meritorious service!"

Nan Xiangwan: "Oh."

She couldn't cheer up without finding a clue about her mother.

Teng Shihai took a bite of jerky, "I have a feeling that the Commander sent you for another purpose. Actually I observed that the 5 Orietal Sword members could have worn those 12 people down sooner or later, without any harm, just wasting bullets. But our Commander still called us over and specially had you lead the team...."
