General Zhou had long known that Cao Yong was no match for Guo Zhendong. Those senior generals who knew Guo Zhendong and Cao Yong also knew that this so-called pinnacle duel was simply Guo Zhendong's personal show. That was why he had come to steal the limelight and stood up at Guo Zhendong's most glorious moment to pull him under the command of the 13th Division.
This was a duel with extraordinary significance for Guo Zhendong. Similarly, this was also a Battle of Gods that had been planned for a long time by the senior generals represented by General Zhou. The 13th Division needed a God of War, and the Hua Xia military also needed such an invincible super soldier. This was not only a promotion for the military, but also a situation that countless senior military officials hoped to see.
Since the beginning of the new century, it had been rare for such an outstanding super soldier to appear in Hua Xia. Not only was he far ahead in combat, but he was also adept at the use of all kinds of high-tech weapons, even armored vehicles and fighter jets.
He, Guo Zhendong. He was the person that the Hua Xia military would support for the next ten years!
This was the result that everyone present could imagine. Even those who didn't like him could not ignore his position in the military and his bright future.
Except for Xiao Zheng.
He stood up. Under Lu Jun's repeated obstruction, Xiao Zheng slowly got up, squeezed out a very insincere smile, and stepped into the ring. Under the complicated gazes of Lu Jun, Jiang Qing, and many other soldiers, he walked into the ring step by step.
Who was he?
Apart from a very small number of people who were familiar with him, most of the soldiers did not know this unfamiliar young man. In fact, dressed in a custom-made suit, he looked more like a social elite, completely out of place in this duel, which was dominated by soldiers.
The audience below the ring all noticed this young man dressed in an expensive suit. In the ring, General Zhou and Guo Zhendong had also noticed him.
But no one knew why Xiao Zheng suddenly ran into the ring. Was there a place for him to stand in the ring? Was he invited to today's Battle of Gods?
He wasn't even wearing a military uniform, but he was standing in the ring of the highest honor. It was indeed a bit abrupt.
The training center that was filled with cheers and applause instantly quieted down. Pairs of strange and complicated eyes stared at Xiao Zheng. They didn't know what he was doing in the ring.
Congratulating?
If they wanted to congratulate him, all they had to do was stand below the stage and applaud. No one welcomed a stranger on stage to congratulate them.
At this moment, even Jiang Qing, who was sitting in the auditorium, had a subtle expression on his face.
Was this guy crazy?
Seeing that it was a foregone conclusion, Lu Jun simply lit a cigarette and sat on the chair with a solemn expression. He let Xiao Zheng do whatever he wanted.
As an old comrade, he knew Xiao Zheng's temperament very well. Once Xiao Zheng decided to do something, even eight horses wouldn't be able to pull him back. It didn't work then, and it still wouldn't work now.
Pa, pa, pa.
Just when everyone was looking at Xiao Zheng, who was walking into the arena, he suddenly clapped his hands and took the lead to applaud with a smile on his face.
As he applauded, he walked towards General Zhou and the other man. In a clear voice, he said, "Congratulations, Captain Guo, for becoming the number one expert in the military. He's the king of all soldiers. "
He didn't sound sincere at all. There was even a sarcastic smile on his face. Not to mention General Zhou in the arena, even the audience below the stage could tell that Xiao Zheng didn't mean it. He was mocking Guo Zhendong!
General Zhou frowned and asked calmly, "Which unit are you from? Why haven't I seen you before? "
"Oh, it's not strange that General Zhou hasn't seen me before. Because I just joined the Long Formation last month and took on the position of Chief Instructor. "Xiao Zheng exaggerated and described a powerless instructor as a Chief Instructor. It was as if he was on the same level as General Qi. It was like a fox assuming the majesty of a tiger.
Regardless of whether he was exaggerating or not, the soldiers below the stage all exclaimed in surprise.
A Long Formation person?
And an instructor at that?
Didn't that mean that even the Long Formation members, who usually did whatever they wanted, were under his control? Listen to his scolding?
He was a master.
It was almost impossible for an ordinary soldier to enter the Long Formation. However, this young man had become an instructor of the Long Formation. What an extraordinary person!
"Long Formation instructor?" General Zhou glanced at Xiao Zheng with a subtle expression and pursed his lips. "Why didn't I know that Long Formation has an instructor position?"
As he spoke, General Zhou's gaze fell on Jiang Qing's face below the stage.
Seeing the flames of war spreading, Jiang Qing had no choice but to stand up and explain, "Yes. Major Xiao is currently working in the Long Formation and is in charge of the training of the members. "
General Zhou nodded faintly. He then looked at Xiao Zheng's face again and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Congratulations," Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "Congratulations."
"What else?" General Zhou questioned in an unfriendly tone.
Congratulations? Congratulations?
Get off the stage and applaud! Who gave you permission to come to the arena? You're just a Major. Didn't you bring your brain with you? Is this a place where you can come to?
If this wasn't the Pearl Garrison, but his own camp, General Zhou would have definitely issued an order to capture this impudent person who didn't know what was important. He would have been grounded for a few months!
"There's more —" Xiao Zheng smiled and said casually. "I want to ask your subordinates if they're interested in joining the Long Formation."
Join the Long Formation?!
The audience below the stage gasped. Their expressions were complicated.
On the other hand, the soldiers of the 10,000-years-old Army seemed to be taking pleasure in the misfortune of others. They were waiting for the show to begin.
Perhaps the Dragon Group did not have as many soldiers as the 13th Division did. However, in terms of organizational structure, the Long Formation was still a military organization and was directly under the control of the Military Commission. Compared to the 13th Army, the Long Formation was closer to the heart of the military.
Other than that, all the members of the Long Formation were excellent soldiers from various armies and military regions. As long as the Long Formation was interested and the soldier didn't object, any unit or organization would have to release the soldier. This was the power given to the Long Formation by the Military Commission. It was also the biggest guarantee for the existence of the Long Formation.
That's right!
As long as the Long Formation wanted someone and the soldier didn't object, they would have to release the soldier even if they were the king of heaven!
It sounded extremely domineering, but from the point of view of the warriors, wasn't this also a kind of supreme glory?
Joining the Long Formation would allow them to work with the best soldiers in Hua Xia and become the idol of the entire army. This was an opportunity that many soldiers yearned for in their dreams.
General Zhou listened to Xiao Zheng's request. Anger rose in his eyes and he clenched his fists. He stared at Xiao Zheng and said, "Are you trying to poach my soldier?"
"General Zhou!" Xiao Zheng raised his voice. "Please watch your words!"
"The Long Formation performs no less than ten actual combat missions every year. Out of every ten, seven of them are overseas," Xiao Zheng said. "This year alone, the Long Formation sacrificed five of its best soldiers!"
"And you're telling me that you're poaching him?" Xiao Zheng said with a firm expression. "What? Since when did the soldiers that the country pays for become your private property?"
General Zhou's expression changed, but he couldn't fight back. He was at a loss for words.
He was speechless.
Guo Zhendong, who had been silent, opened his mouth and asked coldly, "Your surname is Xiao Zheng, right?"
