Chapter Ninety-Three

Yu Zhe shouted, "Reconnaissance team, step forward."

Several men came out at once.

Yu Zhe shouted again, "Any scout who is skilled with computers, take one more step."

This time, only one scout stepped forward.

Yu Zhe looked at that scout and said, "From now on, you will follow that girl. If you have any objections, settle them with her later."

As he spoke, he pointed at Pan Yuxin.

Then he called out again, "Anyone who has taken part in the army-wide competition, step out. Those who have not, fall back."

This time, only a few came forward.

Yu Zhe said to the men who had stepped out, "From now on, you will follow him. Likewise, if you have any issues, settle them with him later."

As he spoke, he pointed to Liu Hu.

Yu Zhe called out once more, "From now on, he will be responsible for all of your marksmanship. I trust you have no objections."

Then he pointed to Wang Hao.

He went on, "All of you will also have to learn to use melee weapons, so you will train under him. If you are unconvinced, you can challenge him later. Your original instructors will remain your instructors, but they will serve as assistants now. And they will train with you as well."

After saying this, he pointed toward Liu Long.

Finally, he added, "The two people beside him will also be assigned to your unit. And one more thing: we do not keep idle hands. Women and children must also learn. As for what they learn, that will be their own choice for now. They will be responsible for the kitchen."

"They may train just like you, or they may study medicine."

After speaking, Yu Zhe thought for a moment, then said, "From this day forward, our force will officially be renamed the Asura Combat Team, and this base will be renamed the Asura Military Base. My codename is Asura. My name is Yu Zhe. If anyone wants my seat, come and find me. If anyone objects to the change, they can come to me too, but if you oppose my decision, you must first defeat your own instructor."

When he finished, he went into the villa and called Nian Yu and Xiao Jie inside as well.

Before entering, he turned back and said, "Xiao Leng, you come in too. Old man Xiao, when you're done in a bit, come in as well."

Yu Zhe knew Xiao Zhi would still have something to say, and that someone would need to oversee their sparring. Otherwise, if something went wrong, it would be bad.

Inside the villa, Yu Zhe said to Leng Yuhang, "Later, you and I are going out for a while to see whether there are any survivors, and we’ll leave a few words behind while we’re at it."

Leng Yuhang grinned slyly. "Heh heh, Xiaoyu, I want to get my hands on an armored vehicle and drive it around. I’ve never driven one before."

Yu Zhe gave him a look of utter contempt. "And that’s all the ambition you’ve got?"

Leng Yuhang chuckled, then grew serious. "Why didn't you assign me any troops? You want me to go out and rescue survivors and search for supplies all by myself?"

Yu Zhe laughed. "Don’t worry. After they train for a couple of days, you can go with them and pick out a few who know how to drive. But you’re going to have to suffer a little."

Leng Yuhang frowned. "Suffer? What suffering? You’re not trying to mess with me again, are you?"

Yu Zhe said, "Not at all. But once you’re outside, it won’t be like a defensive battle anymore. You’ll have to be able not only to escape, but to hurt the enemy while escaping. So after you pick your men, I’ll need you to bring them down, all by yourself."

Leng Yuhang laughed. "That’s no problem. Even if Long and the others spend a couple of days teaching them, it won’t amount to much."

Yu Zhe said, "It won’t amount to much, yes—but within a week, they must be able to move freely through the soldiers Long and the others train, and at minimum, they must be able to land hits on three of them before they count as qualified."

Leng Yuhang cursed, "You call that making me suffer? That’s screwing me over, you little bastard!"
