534: All six soldiers survived.

All six Soldiers are alive.

Lu Jing picked up the walkie-talkie and said,

"Battalion Commander Wei, I am Lu Jing. We have found Squad Leader Liu, Comrade Qian, Comrade Li... totaling six Soldiers."

Upon hearing this over the walkie-talkie, Battalion Commander Wei's voice trembled with excitement.

"Received, Captain Lu. How are they?"

Lu Jing looked at Squad Leader Liu and then glanced at the other comrades.

"Four Soldiers have leg injuries. Comrade Li is in the most serious condition; Instructor Xiao and Military Doctor Shen are treating him. Two other Soldiers have arm injuries... All six Soldiers are alive."

"That's great."

Hearing Captain Lu say that all six Soldiers were alive, Battalion Commander Wei's eyes reddened.

"I want to speak with Squad Leader Liu and the others."

Lu Jing handed over the walkie-talkie.

"Old Liu."

Hearing Battalion Commander Wei's voice, Squad Leader Liu became excited.

"Battalion Commander Wei."

"It is truly wonderful to have found you all. I am with the wounded on the cliff, and we even captured a few enemies today..."

Hearing Battalion Commander Wei speaking to them, the Soldiers believed Lu Jing and Xiao Niannian.

After the conversation ended, Comrade Qian asked curiously,

"Chief, what is this in your hand?"

He had never seen such a thing before; it could actually be used to talk. Was it a telephone?

"Chief, is this a telephone?"

Watching them have their wounds treated by the Soldiers while still looking happy and curious, Lu Jing answered with a smile,

"This is called a walkie-talkie, newly developed by the Arms Factory."

Oh my, newly developed by the Arms Factory?

This is a good piece of equipment.

Just as they were speaking, a voice came through the walkie-talkie,

"Report, Captain Lu."

"Captain Gu and the others have rescued four Soldiers; they are all injured..."

Hearing that three more Soldiers had been rescued, the Team Members below were very happy.

"Do they know the whereabouts of the other three Soldiers?"

"We don't know."

Xiao Niannian used water from a canteen to brew some medicine and fed it to Comrade Li first.

"His condition requires his fever to be broken quickly..."

Military Doctor Shen said,

"You go treat the other Soldiers' wounds; I will handle this."

"Okay."

Hearing Military Doctor Shen's words, Xiao Niannian immediately began treating the other comrades-in-arms.

Other Team Members who knew first aid also treated the other wounded.

Watching Xiao Niannian and Military Doctor Shen's movements, Squad Leader Liu said in surprise,

"comrades, are you two Military Doctors?"

Military Doctor Shen grunted in affirmation and continued treating Comrade Li's wound.

"Squad Leader Liu, please have some porridge."

"Thank you."

As Squad Leader Liu drank the porridge, he noticed there was minced meat in it and was somewhat surprised.

Xiao Niannian quickly treated the wound on Squad Leader Liu's leg. Seeing Squad Leader Liu's face contort with pain without him crying out, Xiao Niannian felt a sense of admiration.

After a while, Squad Leader Liu's wound was treated.

The other few comrades also drank the porridge.

Xiao Niannian treated the leg wound of another comrade.

"For this leg injury, I will bind it with a wooden splint. When we go up later, they will carry you. After reaching the top of the cliff, stay on the stretcher and do not walk on your own. You need to recuperate well; if it is not taken care of properly, your leg will recover very slowly..."

Hearing Xiao Niannian's words, comrade Feng kept saying thank you.

"Report, Captain Lu, the ropes are ready; we can go up at any time."

Hearing this, Lu Jing looked at the sky.

It was dark now. Down here, the rocks provided shelter from the rain, but the Soldiers above would be soaked.

"Squad Leader Liu, are there any caves around the cliff that can provide shelter from the rain?"

Hearing Lu Jing's words, Squad Leader Liu nodded.

"More than 600 meters from here, there is a cave that can accommodate dozens of people."

That cave was naturally formed; they had discovered it while on patrol previously.

"Captain Lu, those White Elephant people might be over there..."

Squad Leader Liu thought of this and became anxious.

"And our Soldiers..."

"Okay, we will go up now. Please lead the way."

Lu Jing hoisted a Soldier onto his back, tied a safety rope for him first, secured a safety rope for himself, and then gripped the main rope.

"Receive."

With a shout from below, the people above immediately went into action.

Squad Leader Liu watched from below, very surprised.

They felt the cliff was difficult to climb, so how did Captain Lu and the others go up so quickly? Especially while carrying a Soldier.

He recalled the speed at which Captain Lu and the others had descended from the cliff—it was like flying.

"So amazing."

Squad Leader Liu had been here for seven years. Before coming here, he had served in the Reconnaissance Battalion, where he had heard of powerful comrades-in-arms being selected for special units. So, were the people who came to rescue them from the Special Forces?

No wonder their bearing was much stronger than theirs, as ordinary comrades-in-arms. And their combat effectiveness was even more extraordinary.

And the two Military Doctors before him, especially Comrade Xiao, looked very young, but her medical skills were amazing. Her movements were very fast, without a single pause, as if she had performed these actions thousands of times.

His leg was bandaged even better than by the nurses at the military hospital.

Xiao Niannian watched the comrades-in-arms carry the wounded up, then reached out and touched Comrade Li's forehead.

"His high fever has subsided."

Xiao Niannian said to Military Doctor Shen.

Hearing Niannian's words, Military Doctor Shen nodded.

"Fortunately, we brought plenty of medicine."

This time, they had brought life-saving medicine, much of which was self-made, and some of which was crafted by their Master; the efficacy was far superior to those from pharmaceutical factories.

They had brought so many medicines from Old Gu and the others this time. When they returned, they would have to call their Master and ask for another batch.

Others might sponge off their parents, but he and his junior brothers could only sponge off their Master.

Not only at Old Gu's, but his own unit was also severely lacking in medicine. He would have to ask Master for some as well.

Hmm, he could help Old Gu and the others ask for medicine—no, he would let his junior brothers ask, and he would ask Master to give some to his own Production Brigade. If Master didn't agree, he would ask Niannian to make the call.

"Why are you staring at me?"

Xiao Niannian looked at Military Doctor Shen's face; he was smiling one moment, raising the corners of his mouth the next, and then looking as if he had thought of a good idea.

What?

Military Doctor Shen snapped back to reality instantly.

"We used a lot of medicine this time. After we go back, we will ask Master for some."

Xiao Niannian understood what he meant.

Watching Niannian walk ahead, Military Doctor Shen suddenly realized that they were several meters apart, and it was dark. How did Niannian know he was staring at her, and that he was plotting something involving her?

Bah, it wasn't that he was plotting something involving her, but rather thinking of asking her to help call their Master. If their Master was in a good mood, he would agree to send medicine to them.
