The Age of the Wolf Pack Tyrant

Chapter 50 French Foreign Legion

"The Navy SEALs are famous worldwide. You've already risen to the rank of colonel, and you're still quite young. You might even become a general someday. Why give up such a good job to become a dangerous mercenary?"

Chen Jun wasn't interested in military ranks; he was more curious about why the colonel's change was so drastic.

"..."

This question involved personal privacy, and the captain remained silent for a while before solemnly saying, "My special operations team is very special; we are specifically responsible for covert operations."

It's the kind of action you see in movies that isn't recognized by the US government.

My men died in action, but because of government bureaucracy, they couldn't even have the national flag draped over their shoulders and didn't receive the honors that soldiers deserve.

Even the most basic death benefits were not available because their identities could not be made public and they could not prove that they had died in action; they only received meager accidental injury compensation.

I don't want my people to die without knowing why, and for my family to suffer the cold indifference and injustice of the government.

So I chose to leave the military and become a mercenary. Since I couldn't give them honor, I at least wanted to ensure that those who followed me could earn money and have no worries about the future.

It is truly heartbreaking to see someone who has dedicated their life to their country end up in such a tragic state.

This incident clearly dealt a heavy blow to the team leader. He forced himself to explain for Chen Jun, but his mood plummeted. After finishing, he went to the side to drink alone.

"Isn't it ridiculous? Sigh~"

Big Buck walked over and sighed, then sat down next to Chen Jun and said, "The captain appealed everywhere for our fallen teammates, using every connection he could find."

But Washington didn't react at all; the Pentagon was like a dead building.

Finally, the captain had no choice but to give up and completely lose faith in those bastards in Washington. In order to earn more money, he retired and joined the mercenary army.

Over the years as a mercenary, the captain has given most of his earnings to the families of his fallen comrades; he has always been fighting desperately for his fallen comrades.

Sigh~~

Big Buck sighed again, saying with great regret, "Back then, the captain was the most promising colonel, and he could very well have become a general at the age of thirty-three, but he gave it all up for his comrades."

Chen Jun and Xing Tian were deeply moved by the captain's noble character when they heard Big Buck's words.

What does being a general mean to a soldier? Anyone with half a brain knows that the saying "A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier" is proof of this.

Faced with this one-in-a-million opportunity, Captain Roger surprisingly gave it up without hesitation.

Just to speak out for their fallen comrades.

All this is so that the families of fallen comrades can receive the compensation they deserve.

He, an ordinary military officer, accomplished what the US government failed to do.

This sounds ridiculous, but it only highlights Roger's noble character. No wonder so many brothers are willing to risk their lives for him.

Chen Jun and Xing Tian still harbored some reservations about joining the Wolf Pack as mercenaries.

After all, they were brought here and forced to join.

After learning about Captain Roger's deeds, all the resentment in my heart vanished, and I developed a genuine appreciation for the wolf pack as a team.

The boss is such a loyal and righteous man; following him will definitely be a worthwhile investment.

"Colonel Roger, it is an honor to serve under you."

"Boss, from now on I will only recognize you. With you leading this big family of wolves, I have full confidence in it and full of hope for the future."

Xing Tian and Chen Jun came to the captain together and expressed their heartfelt respect.

What he did deserves everyone's respect.

Thank you.

The captain stood up, raised his glass, and smiled.

……

Ten hours passed in the blink of an eye.

With the cabin shaking violently upon landing, the massive military transport plane slowly landed and came to a stop.

Having rested enough on the plane, Chen Jun shouldered his bag and followed everyone out of the cabin, thinking that once he arrived in romantic France, he could properly experience the legendary romance.

The scene that greeted me when I stepped outside was completely different from what I had imagined.

Upon exiting, all I saw were Humvees running around, rows of fully armed soldiers, circling armed helicopters, and various planes busily loading and unloading supplies.

This is a standard military base, but damn it, there's not a trace of flowers, beautiful women, or champagne.

"Welcome to the French Foreign Legion base. I'm off to have some fun. Good luck and have a great time in the days to come."

Cowboy chuckled and patted Chen Jun and Xing Tian on the shoulder, then ran off with Demon and the others, their arms around each other's shoulders.

"Why do I feel like they're giving me weird looks?"

Chen Jun sensed that people were looking at them strangely, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

"You two come with me."

Butcher and Di Huo did not leave with the others. Instead, they specifically asked Chen Jun and Xing Tian to get into a car, but did not tell them where they were going.

The Hummer stopped at a large military camp that resembled an airplane hangar and was filled with dormitories.

Xing Tian, ​​who had a good understanding of military theory, was the first to realize where they were. He said speechlessly, "A dormitory is standard for new recruits. This old bastard Butcher, is he here to run a recruit camp for us?"

Xing Tian speaks Mandarin, so he's not afraid that the butcher and Di Huo will understand him, which makes him quite unrestrained.

"This really looks like a recruit training base. It's probably the recruit training center for the French Foreign Legion. We're probably going to suffer a lot again."

Recalling the two weeks of mistreatment he endured in Funan, Chen Jun felt a surge of apprehension as he looked at the recruit training camp before him.

"This is the recruit training camp. You will receive some training here, and then I will come to pick you up and take you back to our wolf pack camp."

The butcher led the two of them to the camp and pointed to two empty dormitory beds, confirming Xing Tian's initial suspicions.

"Although we've been on the battlefield and seen blood, when it comes to military knowledge and skills, we're really just new recruits. I really appreciate the opportunity to receive systematic training."

Since you're going to do this kind of work, you need to have the skills, and Chen Jun wasn't opposed to it.

"Are all the people here mercenaries? Are they with us? There are hundreds of new recruits, so the wolf pack must be as large as a division?" Xing Tian asked in astonishment.

"No, this is the French Foreign Legion's recruit camp. You are not the same kind of people as them."

The butcher shook his head and explained, "They come from all over the world to sign up for the Foreign Legion. They are soldiers, businessmen, criminals, and even the sons of billionaires who are looking for thrills."

No matter where they come from or what their status is, they are all new recruits here and must undergo training. Only those who pass the training can stay.

However, even if you pass the test, there's no guarantee of a mission. Some will be transferred to various locations to participate in counter-terrorism operations or work as bodyguards; only the best will become regular soldiers in the Foreign Legion.
