After finishing lunch, Xin Shengtian instructed someone to send Xin Yi, Lijie, and Big Bull back to the Farm. Xu Maogong was also supposed to return to the Farm with Xin Yi, but since there was no suitable place for him to stay at Xin Yi's Farm, and Xin Shengtian wouldn't let him go anyway, he touched his reddened nose and said, "If you dare to leave, you have to admit that your chess skills are worse than mine!"
Xin Yi thought that Xin Shengtian probably hadn't been this happy in a long time. Since they didn't need Xu Maogong for now, it would be better to let the two old men enjoy themselves. So, he said to Xu Maogong, "Uncle, why don't you stay here for now? There's nothing going on at my place anyway."
Upon hearing Xin Yi's words, Xin Shengtian laughed and said, "Xin Yi, you call him Uncle? Hahaha... Xu old man, when did you become my nephew? Hahaha... I've gained an extra old nephew for no reason!"
Xu Maogong rolled his eyes in anger and cursed, "Nephew my ass! Xin old man, don't take advantage of me! Let's keep our own boundaries! Besides, I will never play chess with you again!"
Hearing this, Xin Yi felt completely flustered and quickly took Lijie and Big Bull away. It was better not to get involved in the antics of these two old men.
Back at the Farm, Xin Yi drove straight to the base of Beng Hu Lian with Lijie and Big Bull. It was time to check on the special forces team that Qin Dali had brought out. He hadn't been able to personally welcome them when they returned from training and felt a bit guilty towards his Brothers. So, on the way, he bought over ten large boxes of good wine to make it up to them.
When they arrived at the base, Qin Dali was leading the team in combat training. The entire yard was filled with dust as the soldiers were divided into pairs and were fiercely sparring. Seeing this scene, Xin Yi knew that this was serious practice; the soldiers' punches and kicks were powerful and aimed directly at vital points. If one side failed to dodge in time, they could really get hurt. Fortunately, everyone was unarmed; otherwise, with this kind of fighting style, it would be inevitable to end up with a few seriously injured patients. Anyone unaware would think this was actual combat rather than training. Even Lijie frowned at the sight.
Qin Dali noticed Xin Yi's arrival and quickly ran over, saying, "Brother Xin, you're back!"
Xin Yi nodded and smiled, "Hehe, Dali, is this training or fighting? Won't someone get hurt like this?"
"This is both training and fighting. If they can't even fight properly, how can they be qualified as special forces of Beng Hu Lian? Injuries are inevitable; however, there are doctors at the base who can handle injuries easily. They’ll be back on their feet by the next day. This month’s jungle warfare training and wilderness survival training have shown these guys what it means to be real special forces. Now this kind of sparring is just child's play for them," Qin Dali replied.
Xin Yi nodded in agreement and said, "I trust the soldiers you've brought out. By the way, there weren't any dangerous incidents during this jungle training, right?"
"Hehe, it was fine; everyone just got tired of eating wild game. There are many beasts in the primeval forest. I told them not to use guns unless absolutely necessary. Guess what? One three-man squad managed to subdue a bear without firing a single bullet! Later on, they brought that big guy back to camp; over a hundred people took two days to finish it off completely. These guys are quite fierce!" Qin Dali said proudly.
"Haha, quite impressive! No wonder these are the soldiers you trained!" Xin Yi said.
Qin Dali ran to the front of the line and shouted, "Stop!" The training ground, which had been filled with dust and noise, suddenly fell silent. Qin Dali then commanded, "Listen to my orders! Everyone, fall in line!"
After a series of quick footsteps, a neat formation appeared before Xin Yi. "Attention! Right face! Forward look!..." Accompanied by Qin Dali's commands, the entire formation moved in perfect unison, perhaps even surpassing a formal military parade.
Seeing that the troops were assembled, Xin Yi stepped forward and said loudly, "Brothers! You've worked hard! Xin Yi knows that training in the mountains is tough and the conditions are harsh, but there's no other way; after all, we are Beng Hu Lian! Every brother in Beng Hu Lian is a brave warrior capable of fighting tough battles, and Beng Hu Lian will surely become an invincible iron army! So I believe our hard training is worth it. Especially when I heard from your Company Commander that one of your three-man teams took down a bear without firing a single bullet. I am very proud of this; it proves that our Beng Hu Lian brothers are all outstanding!"
"I also want to apologize to all the brothers for my broken promise. Before we went into mountain training, I said that on the day you returned, I would greet you at the foot of the mountain and host a welcome for you. However, due to my own reasons, I broke my word. I heard from your Company Commander that you waited for me at the foot of the mountain for an entire day, which makes me feel very ashamed. So today, I am here to apologize to all of you brothers and ask for your forgiveness!" After saying this, Xin Yi suddenly bowed deeply to the formation.
The entire formation remained silent; everyone was still and gazing straight ahead. A month of jungle combat training had indeed paid off. If this had happened before, Xin Yi's action would have certainly caused a stir among the troops because this group was ultimately Xin Yi's private armed force. To put it bluntly, Xin Yi was the Boss responsible for all Beng Hu Lian brothers' salaries and expenses; it was essentially a Boss-employee relationship. If the Boss sincerely apologized to his employees in this manner, it would definitely stir emotions among them. However, it was clear that Beng Hu Lian had already adopted a military demeanor. Although many brothers had red eyes and there were glimmers of tears, not a single person made a sound or even glanced sideways; they stood firm like steel rifles.
Xin Yi felt pleased and continued speaking: "Although I broke my promise by not greeting you at the foot of the mountain on your return, I have not forgotten what I said about not returning until we are drunk. So today I brought some wine; let’s drink until we drop right here with Brothers!" Xin Yi turned to look at Qin Dali, who walked over. Xin Yi whispered a few words to him and then turned back to continue speaking: "Moreover, I announce that after consulting with your Company Commander just now, everyone can suspend training this afternoon. Starting tomorrow, each person will enjoy three days of family leave! Alright, dismissed!"
"Wow!..." After Xin Yi's command to dismiss them, the entire troop erupted in cheers. Qin Dali maintained strict discipline; not only were they not allowed to take family leave normally, but they weren't even permitted to drink alcohol during regular times. Only during jungle training were soldiers allowed to have a little bit to fend off the midnight cold and dampness of the rainforest—limited amounts at that. Therefore, everyone had long been craving alcohol. With three days of family leave ahead of them, this opportunity was truly rare. Among the brothers in Beng Hu Lian were both married and unmarried men; naturally, everyone understood what three days of family leave meant—especially for those who were married. As for the unmarried ones... as one leader put it well: "If there are conditions to meet up with someone, go for it; if there aren't any conditions, create them!" This saying was simply a classic quote of this century!
The brothers cheered with excitement as Xin Yi instructed Qin Dali and Zhong Kai to help move the wine from the vehicle to the cafeteria. He also asked Qin Dali to tell the cafeteria staff to go buy some ingredients for dinner later. After some busy work, the brothers gathered around Xin Yi chatting about various dangers and funny incidents encountered in the jungle training or jokes that happened during training sessions—everything from Qin Dali's harshness to Zhong Kai's strictness... All were shared with Xin Yi. Big Bull's massive frame became a target for challenges among Brothers—arm wrestling, wrestling matches, Kung Fu competitions... The courtyard was filled with bursts of laughter and joy.
Time passed quickly; soon evening fell and dinner was ready in the cafeteria. Although it was communal cooking style food, various seafood purchased earlier in the day combined with wild game brought back by Brothers from the mountains made for an appetizing aroma thanks to careful preparation by the chefs. Xin Yi instructed everyone to move all dining tables outside and gather them together so that over a hundred people could eat at one table. Once everyone was seated, Xin Yi poured himself a full glass of wine and stood up saying: "Brothers! This glass is to welcome everyone back from training; although it's a bit late, my sincerity remains unchanged. This glass is dedicated to all my brothers! You've worked hard! Cheers!" With that, Xin Yi tilted his head back and downed his full glass in one go while everyone else followed suit.
Just as everyone sat down again, Xin Yi stood up holding another glass of wine and declared loudly: "This glass is an apology drink because my broken promise made Brothers wait at the foot of the mountain for an entire day. I apologize once more! I'll drink this one myself; Brothers can drink as you wish!" After finishing his drink in one go again without any excessive formalities or words from others, everyone stood up and finished their glasses.
"This third glass," Xin Yi began again as some brothers who couldn't hold their liquor started feeling dizzy after two drinks but stood firm listening attentively to him. "This third glass is for our Beng Hu Lian and our entire Three Tiger Group. The development and growth of our Three Tiger Group owe much to each one of you brothers! Without your contributions there would be no Three Tiger Group today. However, our tasks will become even more challenging moving forward as Three Tiger Group will venture into more fields. Therefore, we must continuously strengthen our abilities so we can better safeguard Three Tiger Group's development and keep creating our own wonderful lives! This glass is for our shared future! Cheers!"
"Cheers!" The crowd erupted with loud cheers as over a hundred people raised their glasses and drank in unison! Beng Hu Lian, this iron-blooded team, this cohesive group, this private militia that can rival the Wolf Warriors Special Forces, is about to embark on a new journey. Its formation and development are destined to be extraordinary. In the history of the Heavenly Pride Nation, this iron-blooded team will ultimately depict an indelible chapter in bold strokes!
