743: Gunshots echoed through the mountains.
The first day's 100-kilometer forced march ended, and the Team Members were all extremely exhausted.
They found a school to rest in.
After eating, all the Team Members fell asleep.
Xiao Niannian looked at her watch. Today was a 100-kilometer forced march, and tomorrow would be a full day of mountain climbing.
Feng Jun's feet and legs hurt, everything hurt at this moment.
The most they had trained for in a single day before was fifty kilometers, but they hadn't expected Yangcheng to be a hundred kilometers in one day.
Moreover, besides providing rice and one dish, they had to procure everything else themselves.
Fortunately, they had Shen Yan's fishing net today.
They borrowed Shen Yan's fishing net and caught a few fish, which they ate for a meal.
But tomorrow, they didn't know what Lu Jing and the others would train them on.
"Captain Feng, is the Yangcheng Special Forces Brigade crazy? Their training intensity is too high..."
"Yes, Captain Feng, are they doing this on purpose?"
"Walking a hundred kilometers in one day, my feet are covered in blisters."
"Who knows what the training will be tomorrow..."
Xiao Niannian listened to the discussions of the Chengdu Special Forces Members in the next classroom and smiled.
"What are your thoughts, Captain Xiao?"
Instructor Qin asked with a smile.
They were having a meeting at this moment.
"Tomorrow, for mountain climbing, have them cross these two large mountains..."
Xiao Niannian took out a map and presented her suggestion.
Instructor Qin and the others looked at the map in Xiao Niannian's hand, listening to her words.
"Captain Lu, Instructor Qin, I agree with Captain Xiao's proposal."
After hearing Xiao Niannian's words, several Instructors readily agreed.
Before, when they went to a small town abroad, didn't they walk for seven consecutive days? Walking dozens of kilometers of mountain roads every day, and the supplies they carried were far more than what the Special Forces Members were carrying now.
"I agree!"
"I also agree."
Afterward, they discussed the training for the next few days.
After the discussion, Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing patrolled the school.
Not much happened that night.
Around six in the morning, the assembly whistle sounded.
"Shhh."
As the whistle sounded, all the Team Members quickly got up, packed their luggage, and ran towards the parade ground.
"You have half an hour to eat. After eating, we will continue the march..."
Hearing that they would continue the outdoor march, the Chengdu Team Members inwardly complained, but no one dared to voice an objection.
After eating, they continued to rush towards their destination.
When they saw the towering mountain, the Team Members were shocked.
Today's mission was actually mountain climbing.
"Today, you need to cross these mountains. The Instructors will lead the way..."
Lu Jing explained the day's training.
"Depart."
Xiao Niannian watched the Team Members run forward, then looked up at the sky.
The weather was good today; it must be bright and sunny.
However, the temperature in the mountains was still several degrees colder than outside.
Xiao Niannian heard Shen Yan's grumbling.
"I knew this training would happen... This must have been Captain Lu's idea, Sister Xiao would definitely not do this..."
Young man, you think too highly of me... Xiao Niannian smiled and sped up, walking beside Shen Yan.
The others saw Captain Xiao and moved aside. Shen Yan was concentrating on walking and didn't expect Xiao Niannian to come over.
He turned his head and met Xiao Niannian's gaze!
Shen Yan was so startled he almost jumped.
"Captain... Xiao, why are you here?"
"Seeing that you're carrying a lot of supplies, I wanted to ask if you needed help."
Shen Yan shook his head like a rattle-drum.
"No."
Although he didn't know why Sister Xiao was so concerned about him, there must be a catch!
Especially when there are many people around!
Xiao Niannian walked forward.
Seeing Captain Xiao leave, Shen Yan let out a long breath.
"Shen Yan, why are you so afraid of Captain Xiao?"
A Team Member asked Shen Yan.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yan immediately retorted.
"Aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid."
The few of them burst into laughter.
Xiao Niannian looked at the road beneath her feet. It had been sunny for days, so even in the mountains, the path wasn't muddy.
This was the mountain path they took when they pursued the thugs who had held the Expert hostage.
In the past two years, this path had been walked by many Team Members, and the landmines left before had also been discovered by the birds and The Monkeys here.
The Monkeys and birds were very smart and found many ways to destroy them.
"Captain Xiao."
Lu Jing handed something over.
Xiao Niannian took it, opened it, and saw it was a meat pastry.
Where did he get it?
"I bought it from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative when we passed by earlier."
Xiao Niannian had been focused on the team and hadn't noticed where Lu Jing went.
"I have stir-fried chestnuts, here's a bag for you."
Xiao Niannian took out a bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts from her backpack and handed it to Lu Jing.
Lu Jing took it, peeled a few, and handed them back.
Lu Jing watched his wife take them, and the smile on his face grew wider.
He knew his wife's habits; she usually disliked peeling things with shells, like shrimp and seafood.
"Very sweet."
Xiao Niannian said with a smile.
Although they were talking, their feet didn't stop.
Military Doctor Shen saw them eating and quickly walked over.
"What are you eating?"
"None for you." Lu Jing refused directly.
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Military Doctor Shen looked at Xiao Niannian.
"They're chestnuts."
"Give him some."
Hearing his wife's words, Lu Jing then gave a small portion to Military Doctor Shen.
Military Doctor Shen smiled.
Old Lu never used to guard his food, but after being with Niannian, all food would be prioritized for his junior sister.
Now, whatever his junior sister said, went.
When he had his next leave, he must tell their master that he had truly taken in an excellent last disciple.
He had benefited greatly from it.
Just as the few of them were walking and talking, gunshots rang out in the distance.
Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing immediately ran forward.
Although they all carried guns this time, only a few Instructors had bullets, and the guns and ammunition were separate.
In such a situation, the sound of gunshots meant they had encountered suspicious individuals, and the other party had fired.
Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing ran swiftly.
They were not far from the reconnaissance Team Members.
Xiao Niannian saw several reconnaissance Team Members retreating towards her direction.
"Captain Xiao, Captain Lu."
"Are you injured?"
Seeing Captain Lu and Captain Xiao's concerned gazes, the reconnaissance Team Members shook their heads.
"We are not injured. They brought dogs... there are more than a dozen of them... each one has a gun..."
More than a dozen people, with dogs, and each one armed with a gun?
Lu Jing looked at He Rui.
"He Rui, take a team to handle it."
"Yes."
Xiao Niannian understood what was happening upon hearing this. Lu Jing and the others had kept it very secret.
He Rui immediately selected a few Team Members.
Feng Jun ran over.
"What happened? Was that a gunshot just now?"
