Chapter 409 Regular Forces, Mercenaries
Lu Gang nodded without hesitation and said, "That's right!"
"Lu Gang!" Liu Xin immediately stared and shouted in a low voice, "What are you saying!"
"Liu Xin, don't stop him. Let him speak!" Ji Feng smiled and waved his hand, then said to Lu Gang, "Lu Gang, since everyone is going to work together, and there are no outsiders around now, feel free to speak up if you have anything to say!"
"Then I'll say it …"
Lu Gang replied, "I wasn't trying to knock you out and I was brooding over it. I failed in the mission. This is my responsibility. I won't shirk. Failure is failure!" Honestly speaking, the reason why I was on the roof at the time was just to guard against people charging in from the Royal Clubhouse, but it was not to fight … "
Ji Feng nodded, "I'm listening, continue."
"Little head, it's an indisputable fact that you could knock me out, but in that situation, you actually took the initiative. If neither of us had a gun at that time, then the one who was knocked out might not have been me, right?" Lu Gang said.
Ji Feng couldn't help but smile, "You can say that. After all, there are many possibilities in everything. This is normal."
"That's it!"
Lu Gang waved his hands and said, "Since the head also agrees with me, then it means that the victory or defeat between us at that time did not represent the combat strength of our team!"
"... You can say so! " Ji Feng nodded as he smiled. He realized what Lu was about to say.
"If that is the case, I would like to ask if the junior head knows that there is actually a huge gap between the regular army and the mercenaries. Mercenaries do not know how to fight against the regular army, and the regular army is not interested in the mercenary army either!" Lu Gang said, "Therefore, I hope that the head of the department can consider the issue of commanding the battle more carefully."
"Hehe …" Ji Feng shook his head and laughed. Lu Gang had just said that the regular army didn't think much of the mercenaries. In reality, he was the only one who did, or perhaps it was his little group that didn't.
Lu Gang's meaning was clear. To let a mercenary command them was unacceptable, because they believed themselves to be much stronger than mercenaries!
Furthermore, Lu Gang believed that Ji Feng knocking him out on the balcony was a sneak attack. Ji Feng suddenly appeared on the rooftop, pointing his gun at Lu Gang. This caused him to be unable to exert his full strength, but in the end, he was directly knocked unconscious by Ji Feng.
No matter how good his martial arts was, he could easily be shot to death on the battlefield. That was what Lu Gang had meant.
In fact, if he thought about it carefully, Ji Feng could understand Lu Gang's thoughts.
No matter what, they were part of the regular army. In the past, they had been reserve members of the Red Arrow Squadron.
Usually, they were no different from soldiers of the Red Arrow Squadron in terms of training. It was just their combat experience as well as their own abilities.
If the soldiers of the Red Arrow Squadron were to be sacrificed during the execution of the character, they would immediately send backup. Of course, they would also need to select an excellent replacement. Perhaps it was their turn, or if it wasn't, they would directly send out some of their best recruits from the troops below to supplement their numbers …
But he didn't dare to say it out loud. They were once among the most outstanding soldiers. Even in the face of those field armies, they still felt a sense of superiority.
But now, Ji Feng had actually sent a mercenary to command them. This made them feel a little uncomfortable.
"Lu Gang, what are you talking about!" Liu Xin saw that Ji Feng only smiled, but remained silent. He frowned and glared at Lu Gang, "Watch your mouth, don't speak carelessly!"
Lu Gang bit his tongue and said, "Captain, I'm just speaking the truth."
"That's right!"
Ji Feng nodded his head and smiled, saying, "Liu Xin, this is not good, if you have anything, you can just say it out. Ji Feng nodded his head and said," Liu Xin, this is not good, if you have anything, you can say it out loud.
Liu Xin could only smile embarra.s.sedly. Lu Gang's words were too straightforward and his tone was very stiff. He didn't even want to fight the mercenaries, but he also wanted to take Ji Feng in. This wasn't appropriate.
Don't look at how Liu Xin was a soldier, but no matter what, he was still a small leader in the army.
Not to mention the final decision that would be made in the end, he hadn't even seen the mercenary and had already offended the head. This wasn't good at all.
However, since Ji Feng had already said so, Liu Xin could only hint at Lu Gang with his eyes. He hoped that Lu Gang wouldn't be so hot-headed and say whatever he wanted to say.
Ji Feng did not care what Liu Xin was thinking, he just looked at Lu Gang who was unconvinced and laughed: "Lu Gang, what you said is right. In terms of field operations, mercenary groups are not comparable to the regular field troops, but I want to remind you, even in the army, you have never been a field soldier. Although you are a regular soldier, you are still a subst.i.tute member of the Red Arrow Squadron.
Lu Gang's facial expression changed. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Ji Feng. "Don't be too hasty to refute. Listen to what I have to say."
All of a sudden, Lu Gang looked resentful, but he did not say anything else.
Ji Feng's gaze swept across Lu Gang and Liu Xin's faces. He knew that these people were the Red Arrow Squadron's reserve members. Even in the face of a regular army, they were extremely proud.
After all, even the alternate members of the Red Arrow Squadron were selected from the various units and were the top contestants. Although they were not as good as the real soldiers of the Red Arrow Squadron, they were still quite good compared to the field soldiers.
However, to Ji Feng, this feeling of superiority was unacceptable.
"You guys have never experienced a field troop's method of combat, although you are selected from the lower units, you also have never experienced a real life or death battle. In terms of combat strength, you can't be seen during training. At most, you'll grow stronger and be a bit more agile than them!"
As Ji Feng spoke, his tone gradually became stern and stern, "You look down on mercenaries? That's fine, of course there's no problem. However, I have to remind you all of one thing. A mercenary group can sometimes be the leader of a small war, and if there is no war, then the mercenary group will not be able to survive. You can think about what kind of life these mercenaries have everyday, and how much combat experience they have! "
"Look at the Red Arrow Army, isn't it also a small group of lonely soldiers? Sometimes they had to travel thousands of kilometers by themselves, without backup or even guides, nothing at all. From a certain point of view, the only difference between the mercenaries and the Red Arrow Company is that they are all wild children, and the Red Arrow Company is a treasure of China, they have fathers and mothers, isn't that so?! " Ji Feng threw up his hands. "But do you think the methods of combat are similar?"
Lu Gang opened his mouth and wanted to refute. However, after thinking for a long time, he could not come up with a good excuse. In the end, he could only shut his mouth.
Indeed, many of the actions of the Red Arrow Squadron were also the actions of small squads. In terms of form, they were very similar to mercenaries. However, the difference between the two was that one was paid to work while the other was to eliminate the enemies for the country.
In fact, they also knew that there were special situations where, in order to not expose the ident.i.ty of the Red Arrow Company, those warriors would disguise themselves as mercenaries when they went on missions. Strictly speaking, there wasn't much of a difference between the Red Arrow Company and the mercenaries, especially in terms of form …
Not only Lu Gang, even Liu Xin and the other warriors' expressions changed slightly after hearing Ji Feng's words.
It was obvious that they had heard Ji Feng's words. However, since Ji Feng did not say anything, they did not know what to say. Moreover, these people were not treacherous people.
"How about this..." Ji Feng suddenly laughed, "Men are all men, and they are also soldiers, this definitely depends on who is more capable. After we settle down, I will let you all have a contest with the other party, and you guys will have nine people, while the other party will have four. The final victor will show who is more capable, so be the leader!"
He looked at Liu Xin, Lu Gang and the others, smiled and said, "This time, there's no excuse, right? By then, regardless of the circ.u.mstances or the mishap, we will have lost. We will just have to say the dirty words first. If we lose, we have to admit defeat. We don't need to be objective. One sentence, if we lose, we won't have any excuse at all … "There's no problem, right?!"
Lu Gang looked at Ji Feng in surprise and asked hesitantly, "Little chief, are you sure you want to use four of us to fight the nine of us?"
"That's right!" Ji Feng lightly said, "Don't underestimate those four. When the time comes, you won't lose. That would be good!"
"Do it!" Lu Gang immediately said.
