748: Red and blue teams battled for control of the hilltop.

"What are you dawdling for? Run faster!"

They walked a hundred li on the first day, spent the second day walking in the mountains and had a big battle at night, and now it was the third day, after walking for several more hours, they finally got out of the mountains. They couldn't ride in military vehicles; they still had to run behind them!

Feng Jun looked at Lu Jing with a face full of anger!

They were truly too ruthless!

When he returned, he would also train his Team Members like they did in Yangcheng.

All the injuries he had suffered and the hardships he had endured, he would make his subordinates experience them all!

The rain he had been drenched in, he would make them drenched in it too!

After another full day of walking, it was past eight in the evening when they returned to the training base.

"Everyone, put down your luggage and go to the mess hall for dinner."

Hearing Lu Jing's words, the Team Members paused, then cheered.

Great, they were truly starving.

All the Team Members ran towards the mess hall!

The Cooking Squad Team Members had already been sent back by military truck, and by now, three dishes and one soup were ready.

The Team Members who stayed behind saw a large group of Team Members running in, many covered in mud, some with pale faces, as if they had been battered by a snowstorm.

"How did the Team Members participating in the Devil's Week training return so quickly?"

"They look like they've suffered terribly?"

"Will we also suffer so much next time?"

"It feels like they've lost a lot of weight in just three days."

Xiao Niannian listened to the Team Members' discussions and smiled.

None of these Team Members would escape!

After dinner, Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing went to the Production Brigade office.

"These two hilltops have been repaired..."

Captain Chen looked at the Captains and said with a smile.

"You requested a red-blue confrontation, it will start tomorrow."

Seizing the hilltops, red-blue confrontation.

On two different hilltops, one side defends and the other attacks, and on the other hilltop, one side defends and the other attacks. They used blank rounds and training explosives as equipment.

But as long as they were hit, a smoke alarm would be triggered.

After more than an hour of discussion, Captain Chen announced the end of the meeting, telling them to rest well in their dormitories.

When Xiao Niannian returned to the dormitory, she saw Lu Jing pouring hot water into a bucket.

"Come quickly and soak your feet."

Hearing his words, Xiao Niannian sat on the sofa.

Xiao Niannian took off her socks, and even with sanitary pads, her feet still had blisters.

Xiao Niannian took out two packets of medicine and poured them into the bucket.

She put her feet in and immediately gasped.

It was a bit hot.

Seeing this, Lu Jing smiled. He scooped a ladle of cold water and slowly poured it in.

"Good, good, good."

Xiao Niannian called out.

Lu Jing poured the remaining water into his bucket.

When she put her feet in, Xiao Niannian's expression was still a bit contorted, both painful and hot. The feeling was indescribably refreshing.

After soaking for a while, Xiao Niannian felt extremely comfortable.

She looked up at Lu Jing and said.

"Will we be watching from the command post tomorrow and the day after?"

"Yes." Lu Jing pulled Xiao Niannian into his arms and said with a smile. "They've been divided into two teams, letting them discuss and fight on their own..."

"I think these two hilltops aren't big enough. We should find some bigger ones and let them train there from time to time..."

Xiao Niannian knew that the 'monkeys' were about to start causing trouble, and there would be occasional conflicts in the next few years. After the 1980s, they and some other Military Units would go to war.

"At that time, we'll go look. There are many mountains here. You can pick whichever mountain you think is suitable."

Xiao Niannian smiled.

"You think it's like picking bok choy!"

Lu Jing lowered his head and kissed Xiao Niannian's lips.

Xiao Niannian responded to him passionately.

After a while, Xiao Niannian pushed Lu Jing away.

"I haven't showered yet."

Hearing this, Lu Jing smiled.

"The water is ready. I'll carry you to shower."

Just as Xiao Niannian was about to refuse, Lu Jing already got up, picked her up, and walked towards the bathroom.

Xiao Niannian hugged Lu Jing's neck tightly, looking at him with a smile.

The bathroom's heating was already on, and it was very warm now.

Lu Jing held his wife and directly turned on the faucet.

The conditions in the Special Forces Brigade were now much better than in other units. Even in winter, the rooms could be as warm as summer.

Heating would be turned on two days a week, and other times it was off. This was to let the Team Members experience hardship; otherwise, if they had good days every day, how could their combat effectiveness be maintained?

However, hot water for showering and heating in the bathhouse were always on.

The warm water immediately soaked all their clothes. Lu Jing held his wife with one hand, placed her on the sink, and with the other hand, he unbuttoned his clothes.

Xiao Niannian lowered her head and kissed him below his neck.

How could Lu Jing not know that his wife was doing this on purpose? Anyway, he would button up his uniform properly tomorrow, and no one else would notice.

Lu Jing lowered his head and continued kissing.

Xiao Niannian tilted her head back, her hands around his neck... Two hours later, they finally emerged from the bathroom.

Xiao Niannian was so tired her hands didn't even want to move. After returning to the room, Lu Jing blew his wife's hair dry with a hairdryer.

This hairdryer was also made by his wife herself.

It was now being mass-produced in the Military Factory and sold abroad.

It was much better than imported hairdryers.

Xiao Niannian saw Lu Jing lean in for a kiss, patted his chest, and said.

"There's a lot to do tomorrow."

"Just one more time, then we rest..."

Xiao Niannian didn't expect that this time, it would be another one or two hours... She woke up when she heard the whistle in the morning.

Just as she was about to get dressed, Lu Jing said.

"We'll run five kilometers in the morning. You can get up later for breakfast. At eight o'clock, I'll take them over there... You can come over then."

Alright then.

Xiao Niannian nodded and went back to sleep.

When she woke up again, it was already 7:30.

Xiao Niannian got dressed and went to the mess hall.

"Captain Xiao, come quickly and try our new dish."

Hearing the words of the Cooking Squad Team Member, Xiao Niannian walked over.

"What's the new dish?"

Several Team Members looked at Xiao Niannian with smiles and said.

"Dry Pot Potato Medley."

Looking at the basin of food in front of her, it looked good and smelled delicious.

"Okay, I'll have a bowl."

"Coming right up."

After breakfast, Xiao Niannian drove to the foot of the two mountains.

Xiao Niannian went directly to the Exercise Command Post, where many sand tables had already been set up, and several Production Brigade cadres were recording things.

Soon after she arrived, Captain Chen, Political Commissar Li, Captain He, and other Production Brigade cadres also arrived.

"Greetings, Commanders."

Captain Chen returned the greeting with a smile, his gaze sweeping over Lu Jing and Xiao Niannian.

His subordinates truly brought him great honor.

The Devil's Week training, which used to be solely about training Team Members, had now progressed to red-blue confrontations and seizing positions. It was a pity that Chief Li and the others had left; otherwise, he would have invited more Commanders to observe.
