Kapitel 188: 188: Establishing Authority

Ye Fei and Liu Junyi were both taken aback by the news. Liu Junyi quickly asked, "Were there any casualties?"

Zhang Qiang shook his head. "No fatalities. A few of our guys got hit in the arms and legs, but nothing critical."

Relieved, Liu Junyi immediately instructed the surrounding officers to gather all squadron leaders in the temporary meeting room. Turning back to Zhang Qiang, she asked, "Tell us exactly what happened."

Zhang Qiang explained that, after Ye Fei and Liu Junyi left in the morning, the teams had continued their planned, step-by-step search into the forest. By 2 p.m., they had covered only about five miles. Just when everyone thought it was going to be another uneventful day, gunfire erupted from the depths of the woods, hitting several members who had separated slightly from the main group. Shocked, the others returned fire, but the attackers quickly vanished.
