The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 239

The other side of the river.

With the fortress artillery barrage gone, the Huaxia Special Forces were finally able to swagger out into the open.

One by one, they brazenly began building a bridge on site.

What great technique!

In half an hour, half of it was built.

At the same time, they also discovered that there were indeed dangers below the water, in addition to the explosives. There were also a large number of crocodiles.

That meant that if they had chosen to swim across initially, they would have either been bitten to death by crocodiles or blown up by the detonation buttons!

Fortunately, the fortress had been breached.

The enemy militants were scattered, and no one was left to watch over this river.

Thus, this detachment of special forces happily built their bridge, allowing the Lingshan Air Force paratroopers to fight ahead without worry!

The dense ‘rat-tat-tat' sounds of gunfire from the bushes were very intense!

One special forces soldier laughed and said: “I didn’t expect these young pups to be quite capable.”

Another man nodded: “Yes, opening fire while parachuting down was really impressive.”

A third man joined the discussion: “I just used my binoculars to see that there was a female soldier among the paratroopers! Though she was a bit ugly!”

Everyone started roaring with laughter and mockery.

“Come on! You saw wrong!”

“An ugly one couldn't possibly be a female soldier, you’re blind!”

"There are no female soldiers, I didn't see any, but there really was an especially ugly one, with his face smeared all over."

At this moment, the captain of this special forces detachment stood up: "Shut up, everyone! Hurry up with the bridge!”

...

Nan Xiangwan sped through the woods with her assault rifle in hand.

The gun in her hands seemed to come alive in this moment.

There was a huge difference in feel between live ammo and blanks!

Nan Xiangwan had no mercy in her heart for the enemy soldiers' lives, nor any fear of pulling the trigger for the first time.

The strong recoil and the feeling of control when her finger pulled the trigger.

She liked this feeling!

With a face smeared to look like a ghost, her eyes were extremely calm.

Unencumbered by weight, Nan Xiangwan leapt nimbly between the tree branches.

Her speed was as swift as flight!

The muffled sounds of gunshots could be heard up ahead. Rat-tat-tat.

There were two Lingshan Military Region paratroopers to her left and right, hidden behind cover, who lobbed a grenade towards the front.

As it exploded, dust and soil blew upwards.

But one militant hiding in a large pit ahead, shielded by several wooden stakes in front, was only deafened by the blast but unharmed.

Cursing loudly, he instantly took out a grenade, preparing to throw it!

Nan Xiangwan happened to see this as she jumped between the branches.

Her brows twitched as she raised her assault rifle.

Taking aim!

Pulling the trigger!

The spat bullets instantly hit their mark. Thud!

Entering straight into this man’s forehead!

The militant fell to the ground and moved no more, but the grenade in his hand had already had the pin pulled. It slipped from his palm onto the ground.

The two paratroopers behind were just about to step out.

Nan Xiangwan shouted: “Get down!”

Next second ——

Boom!

The grenade exploded, blowing the militant’s corpse into smithereens.

It also blew apart the wooden stakes in front, sending wooden splinters flying everywhere.

The two paratroopers looked up at their captain. That position, that height, that angle...

Nan Xiangwan, you’re awesome!

They also wanted to learn to climb trees, but sadly lacked the talent for it.

And so, the two paratroopers could only watch with eyes wide as Nan Xiangwan pushed off with both legs from the branch, leaping onto another out of sight in the blink of an eye.

The two looked at each other, shock and speechlessness apparent in both their eyes.

"Uh, she's really fast. We should practice tree climbing next time?"

"That shooting angle was sick! But the direction she ran towards seems wrong."

"Hmm, wrong way."

Charging wildly all the way, Nan Xiangwan suddenly found herself face-to-face with a river after running blindly ahead.

This river looked so familiar!

And there was actually a newly built bridge across it!

And that was how she stumbled upon this special forces team.

Both sides stared blankly at each other!

Several of the special forces soldiers were first stunned, then immediately broke into excited chatter.

"See, what did I say? I knew there was a female soldier! You just wouldn't believe me!"

"Shouldn't have taken that bet, damn! There really is a female soldier!"

"Yo girl, what's with your face..."

They didn't dare say anything more after that.

Her features were rather good-looking, so why smear them deliberately?

Nan Xiangwan was silent for a while, then saluted: "Sorry! I ran the wrong way!"

The next second, she turned and ran back into the woods.

How embarrassing!
