Firepower is king

There was no time to enjoy the victory, and there was no feeling of pride. On the contrary, when the exercise was over and the victory was achieved, it felt like a guilty conscience and a rush to escape after success.

Especially after seeing Mags trotting all the way to the helicopter, the feeling of escape became even stronger.

To lay down a top-level army and ravage them on the ground, wiping out the entire opponent with zero casualties, was a bit too much.

There is no problem with the rules, even if PoTian wins, no one can accuse Mirage's victory of having problems, but when there are problems, everyone knows very well that this exercise is an exercise, and there are some reasonable and legal loopholes that only exercises can exploit. It's impossible to happen in actual combat.

Although it was just an exercise, Gao Guang's strongest feeling was that it was different. The Trident was really strong, but the Phantom couldn't compare, and the gap was still a bit big.

This is the difference between a super first-class team and a quasi-first-class team, at least two levels. As for combat, if a team is two levels behind in terms of strength, they will be crushed, or at least be completely defeated and completely wiped out.

But now, the winner is Phantom.

"Take off, go to the airport, quickly!"

Mags urged the helicopter to take off. He was a little too eager. Even if he ran away after the fight without giving his opponent a chance to struggle, there was no need to act like he was running away.

The helicopter left the ground, and Lei said happily: "Boss, we won!"

Mags nodded, and then he said solemnly: "Yes, we won, we did a great job, the boys all did a great job!"

Lei said with some confusion: "But you don't look very happy, and you are also a little nervous."

Mags smiled reluctantly, then nodded and said: "I broadcast the entire exercise live, and the Special Operations Command watched the whole process, and if nothing else happens, it will be saved for any missions in the future. If you still want to snatch the Trident, you can show the video of this exercise to shut up people."

Lei's mouth instantly opened and he couldn't close it.

Gao Guang said in shock: "Damn it!"

Originally, the Phantom and Trident exercises were just exercises, and if you win, you win. Anyway, you will leave after the highlight is done. The result has nothing to do with the highlight, so the highlight is still very peaceful.

But now, Gao Guang's mentality can no longer be calm.

If Mags doesn't take action, it will cost lives.

Doesn’t this offend Trident to death? Isn't this a direct transformation from a competitor to a mortal enemy?

Seeing the demented expressions on their faces, Mags exhaled and said, "So, we have to leave quickly, and if nothing else happens, well, we will face the Trident for a long time. It’s a provocation, but I won’t accept it.”

Lei's mouth closed, and then he said blankly: "Trident is indeed very powerful. Their tactics... are very risky and very strong."

"I know, but it doesn't matter if you can't defeat Trident, as long as you can defeat the enemies of the United States."

Magus smiled. He still looked confident and said: "What we need is time and practical experience. We have only been established for a short time. As long as we are given a chance, we will soon be able to truly surpass Trident. Just a matter of time."

What can Lei say?

After thinking blankly for a long time, Lei suddenly whispered: "Boss, that butter knife."

"The butter knife refuses to fight."

Magus sighed and continued: "But now think about it, if Butter Knife really challenged us, we should be able to win with the same tactics, but if we win... so what, I always think that Phantom and Trident The only thing worse than Butter Knife is the chance to perform, but after tonight’s drill, I discovered that the gap in our strength is really huge.”

A layman can see the excitement, but an expert can see the truth. It is true that the Phantom won tonight. It won with tactics, with shield, and with the highlight plug-in protected by the shield.

But the Phantom won the exercise, but lost the confidence.

The strength shown by the Trident can let Mags see how big the gap is. He has caught up with the Trident because of the Phantom. However, the Trident helicopter hovers and rappels and shoots from the air, letting Mags know whether the Phantom is real or not. no.

If you find a gap, you have to find ways to narrow it or even catch up. This is the attitude that a team that aspires to be number one should have.

So what Maggs is thinking about now is how to improve the Phantom's strength as quickly as possible and make up for the gap with the Trident, rather than how to use his tricks tonight to make a fuss and create influence.

If the results of this exercise were to be taken as evidence that the Phantom was stronger than the Trident, it might have the opposite effect.

The most terrible thing is that Gao Guang is not a member of Phantom. Once Gao Guang leaves, Phantom will not be able to copy this tactic.

Mags looked at Gao Guang, his eyes a little fiery.

Gao Guang was wary, but he just pretended not to notice Mags's eyes, but said thoughtfully: "Colonel, I have a question. If I can participate in the same exercise as Butter Knife and win Butter Knife, what will happen in the future?" Is there no need to practice anymore?”

"Yeah, but I'm not going to do that anymore."

Mags smiled helplessly. He forced a smile and said: "In today's exercise, we have offended the Navy to death, but it doesn't matter. We are special forces. We won't have much contact with the Navy. As long as I don't If he is the commander of the Phantom Force again, then this relationship should be able to be repaired, but if I use the same method to defeat Butter Knife again, then..."

Before Mags finished speaking, he seemed a little embarrassed. After a moment of silence, he finally said: "If the Butter Knife is defeated and broadcast live, then we will completely break with the Army, because the Butter Knife is on the The first tragic defeat was broadcast live, which will remind them of the painful experience. Well, I think we should... straighten our attitude. "

Gao Guang said very puzzledly: "Correct your attitude?"

Mags whispered: "Trident definitely wants revenge, but they just want to kill us. They want to communicate on an equal footing and learn from each other. That kind of exercise is no longer possible. We have completely cut off all ties with the Navy Special Forces." With the possibility of troop exchanges, I’m thinking that the Phantom Force will even lose the possibility of selecting people from the SEAL Forces.”

Lei immediately said: "We didn't choose it before."

"It's different. In the past, we could select people from the SEALs if we wanted, but we don't. In the future, if we have talents we like, the Navy will never let them go. This is the biggest difference."

It seemed that Mags had some regrets, and the reason for his regret was that after having the opportunity to practice, he finally discovered that he had been blindly arrogant before, and he also succeeded in offending the navy to death.

The Navy has already been offended to death, and Mags feels that it is not good to offend the Army even more, turning the Phantom, which was only six years old, into a target of public criticism.

Lei thought for a while, and then he suddenly said: "Well, the people in the Navy must be furious."

"So we can't offend the Army to death. Our largest source of soldiers is the Army. If this turns the two strongest branches of the special forces into mortal enemies, then... that would be really troublesome."

Mags spread his hands and said: "You haven't seen the appearance of the major from Trident. I have no doubt that if he had a gun in his hand, he would definitely shoot me in the head."

To sum up, to put it simply, Mags won, but he was also intimidated, and he still recognized the reality and planned to stand up.

It doesn't feel very good, but people have to face reality, especially Mags. The future of the Phantom Army depends on him. If this really kills them all, Phantom will eventually lose its success.

Gao Guang keenly noticed the change in Mags' mentality, so he said without hesitation: "Colonel, the Navy has already committed a crime, so don't try to repair the relationship. It's useless. Dead enemies are dead enemies and cannot be reconciled." ”

Mags nodded.

Gao Guang continued: "As a human being, in fact, the most taboo thing is to waver and be a wallflower, otherwise both sides will be offended. Since Butter Knife has never accepted the challenge, it is better to... just fall to the Army."

"Um?"

Mags looked at Gao Guang in surprise.

Gao Guang continued: "It's a very simple truth. The enemy of the enemy is a friend. Anyway, the navy, air force and army can't deal with it. The biggest competitor of the Trident is the butter knife, so let's straighten up. We, the Phantom, are the second. The butter knife is number one. Step on the trident and hold the butter knife until you die. There are many benefits to doing this..."

Lei said with a surprised look on his face: "What is Mad Dog Xu Xu thinking in his mind?"

It was inconsistent with his usual reckless persona, but there was nothing he could do about it. Gao Guang didn't come up with any ideas now, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to escape.

Mags said with a solemn expression: "Lei, don't interrupt, Mad Dog, please continue."

"We are just flattering one to beat another, diverting trouble to the east. We have a correct attitude, but we are not as good as Butter Knife. If we praise them harder, we will admit that Butter Knife is the boss and the special forces 1 from now on. Then Butter Knife will definitely be happy, and the Army will be happy. Then you have to give us some face. This is called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person. Even if you are not an ally, you are always a friend. Even if you are not a friend, you are still not an enemy!"

"That makes sense, yes."

"Stomp on the Trident to death. It's already offended to death anyway. Let's add another fire and crucify them in the third position. From now on, we will be the boss of Butter Knife, the second boss of Phantom, and the third boss of Trident. No matter what, there are more opportunities for phantoms than before. "

After finishing speaking, Gao Guang said happily: "You think about it, before the Phantom could not compete with the butter knife and the trident. Now, regardless of the real strength, it can be said that they are the three strongest troops. From now on we will be There is a ranking, this is already a victory!”

Mags clapped his hands and said, "That's right! Holding on to the second position is already an amazing victory!"

Lei's reaction was not as fast as Mags. He thought about it for a while and finally said: "That's it! I understand! Then how do we show our kindness to the butter knife?"

Gao Guang smiled sinisterly, and Magus smiled sinisterly.

"I'm going to call someone in the Army," Maggs laughed. "I know so many people in the Army that I'm going to compliment them and admit that the Phantom isn't as good as a butter knife."

Lei felt a little regretful, and then he whispered: "Then tomorrow many people will know that we defeated Trident, right?"

"Of course, tomorrow."

Mags suddenly stopped talking. He began to think deeply. Then he frowned and said, "The news will not spread until tomorrow. So what will happen tonight? The Navy requests to block the news? The Navy requests... The Navy's response is wrong." , why are they so calm? Logically speaking, someone should call me and scold me now."

Lei whispered: "Has your phone been turned off? Has communication been cut off?"

"not at all!"

Magnus took out the satellite phone, he looked at it, and then he said with certainty: "The satellite phone signal is very good, I understand, the navy must want to block the news, no, we can't wait until tomorrow, I have to spread the news now, we can't wait for the top to publicize it for us, we have to do it ourselves, I want to call the army, I want to call everyone, I must let everyone know that we defeated Trident tonight!" What is God's will, this is God's will, Magnus didn't guess the true thoughts of Trident, Gao Guang didn't guess it, but Magnus was worried that the navy would block the news, and decided to spread it as quickly as possible overnight, and the fate of Trident was determined. Gao Guang said on the side: "Yes, yes, go upstairs and pull the ladder, call now, don't give them the opportunity to block the news"
