The captain smiled. “Even if the commander wanted to teach Ling Lan and lesson, the general would not allow him too.”

The vice-captain was stunned. “Are you saying that General Ling Xiao would not give the commander any chances to act?”

“Let us wait and see. I guess that the special forces will receive a mission soon. I am just not sure how long the mission will last.” The Sting Special Forces was at fault so it was understandable if General Ling Xiao taught them a lesson. He just hoped that the general would not bear any grudge against the special forces.

The vice-captain understood the situation. He said with contempt, “I knew that Lian Shaojing is a burden. Why did the Sting Special Forces even take him in?” Lian Shaojing was recommended by the captain of the Sting Special Forces. Hence, his actions represented the whole special forces. This was why General Ling Xiao might direct his anger to the special forces.

“I just hope that the general will have some mercy on us.” The vice-captain wanted to cry so much that he felt depressed. General Ling Xiao was everyone’s idol in the 23rd Division. They all applied to join the 23rd Division because of him. If General Ling Xiao bore a grudge against them because of this, they might all go crazy. They would rush to the hospital and kill Lian Shaojing even if it was just to appease the general.

“Once we receive our mission from the headquarters, we will know whether the general is angry or not.” The captain, on the other hand, was relaxed. General Ling Xiao was a fair person. He would not take his anger out on them unless the commander of the special forces offended Ling Lan again. They would only just be tormented during their mission.

The next day, as expected, the headquarters gave them an order. All members of the special forces had to undergo a three-month training at the camp of the first battle team, the Bladed Special Ops Team.

The soldiers who were from the Bladed Special Ops Team turned pale when they heard this news. Those soldiers who didn’t know about the Bladed Special Ops Team thought that this was a reward for them. They thought that their general gave them a holiday. They excitedly packed their bags and happily went to the training camp…

“Seems like the general wants to protect the new recruits for three months.” The commander pondered over the general’s intention. He then gave a cheerful smile. “This means that he won’t do anything to me if I find them after these three months.”

General Ling Xiao was indeed a logical and good father who knew how to nurture his child. A person would only grow during hardships. General Ling Xiao wanted to use the special forces to motivate his son. The commander, who initially wanted to stop his team members from finding Ling Lan, started to have other thoughts.

“Ling Lan, the Heir of the 23rd Division. Let me see how much you have grown.” Emotions flashed in the eyes of the commander.

The order by the headquarters was soon made known to everyone in the 23rd Division. The other normal battle teams that were waiting to see what the special forces would do started to get fidgety.

“The order from the headquarters, is it an indication of the headquarters’ attitude… or is it an indication of General Ling Xiao’s attitude towards Lian Shaojing’s incident?”

“General Ling Xiao felt that the recruits were right.” Everyone understood what their general was trying to tell them. Of course, right from the start, the recruits didn’t do anything wrong. The other battle teams were just afraid of the special forces so no one stood up against them and said that the special forces were in the wrong.
