Chapter 2903
2903 Who Gave You The Confidence?
Senior Colonel Amitabh was not a reserved soldier. In addition, he always thought that his country could be ranked as the third largest country in the world. Its military strength and national strength were not inferior to other countries. Hence, in the face of General Hywell’s sudden question, Senior Colonel Amitabh replied calmly, “We’re currently ranked seventh. My country’s soldiers are very competitive. We’ll definitely enter the top three.”
These words were actually a little disgusting.
Even if he really thought that his country had the ability to enter the top three, it was just because he thought so. There was no need to say it with an arrogant facial expression.
Immediately, a Western general teased, “Really? That’s a little cruel. Why do I think that the Chinese participants have the ability to enter the top three?”
“Hahaha, I think so too. It looks like the Chinese team members who are participating for the first time might really be able to enter the top three.”
“China has always been humble. They never show off their strength easily. Maybe they can really enter the top three?”
Senior Colonel Amitabh’s expression turned ugly when he heard the sarcastic words. His facial expressions turned even darker. “We’re not talking about which country can enter the top three. We’re talking about which country can achieve full scores in this round. I believe that my country’s participants have the ability to achieve full scores. General Hywell, I believe in my country’s soldiers. Is there a problem?”
“Oh, there’s no problem. There’s no problem at all.” General Hywell shook his head with a serious expression. Soon, he pointed ahead and pretended to be surprised. “The Chinese soldiers have already rushed out. If I’m not wrong, your soldiers are resting at the side.”
Running ten-kilometer twice with a weight of 35 kilograms was already exhausting. Some participants from other countries were even chased by the imaginary enemies and had already handed in their penalty slips. Some managed to run out of the blockade. The moment they came out, they carried their backpacks and fell on the wet grass to rest.
This was how the SFS border defense soldiers were. After rushing out, they were so tired that they lay on the ground to rest. They were too tired. All the muscles in their bodies were tired, and they needed to rest.
Not only were the SFS border defense soldiers resting, but the soldiers from other countries also rushed out to rest.
There were also soldiers who, like Big Eel, fell down when they weren’t paying attention. There were already several cases of injuries.
At this moment, the gap between the soldiers of the 12 countries was even bigger.
The time difference between the first-place American team and the second-place Estonian team was only 20 minutes, but it was almost a 45-minute difference with the third-place team.
As it turned out, the Chinese participants had gotten eighth place according to their original plan. They had controlled themselves very well. If not, they might have rushed straight to fifth place. The leap from tenth place to fifth place was a little big. They needed to control themselves.
When the eighth team rushed out, they saw the SFS border defense soldiers led by Saluk. They had competed with two other countries. Their original fourth position fell to seventh.
When Xia Jinyuan rushed out with his team, he saw the exhausted SFS border defense soldiers beside him. However, he ignored them and only glanced at them from the corner of his eyes. He didn’t stop at the rifle shooting point.
