799: Armed field training exercise.

"Just you wait, we can definitely catch up to you and surpass you..."

If someone were to donate tens of millions, their training Production Brigade would definitely be better constructed, and their various weapons and equipment would be as good as those of the Yangcheng Special Forces Brigade.

Their current situation is much better than before, but compared to the Yangcheng Special Forces Brigade, they are still far behind.

However, they have learned a lot from the Yangcheng Special Forces Brigade. As long as they train diligently and select more promising recruits, they will definitely catch up to the Yangcheng Special Forces Brigade quickly.

Give them two or three more years, and they will definitely win!

After finishing the five-kilometer run, the Team Members were preparing to fill the trenches when Captain Niu spoke.

"Don't fill these trenches. The weather is getting colder now. If it gets any colder, the trenches will be impossible to dig. Leave them for now and fill them in the spring..."

Captain Chen agreed upon hearing this.

"You're right! Our area isn't as cold as yours; I completely forgot about that."

Captain Chen looked at Lu Jing and Xiao Niannian.

"Are the rock climbing points that were repaired a few days ago ready for climbing?"

"We had the Instructors check them today. They are ready, no issues."

Hearing Lu Jing say this, Captain Chen nodded happily.

"Then have them go train later."

"Yes."

Just as they were preparing to lead the team to training, a broadcast announced an obituary that saddened countless Team Members.

"The great... our beloved..."

When they heard the broadcast, everyone stopped.

Xiao Niannian lowered her head, feeling distressed.

"How is this possible?"

"I don't believe it."

Some Team Members started crying loudly.

"Wuwuwu, how could this happen?"

In an instant, the sound of crying grew louder.

Captain Chen's body was trembling at this moment, and his eyes were full of tears. Political Commissar Li and the others were the same.

"Have them all return to the Indoor Training Room and memorize the Military Unit Regulations..."

At a time like this, no one was in the mood to train.

That day, the atmosphere throughout the entire Special Forces Brigade was heavy, and many people had tears in their eyes.

Xiao Niannian didn't sleep well that night either.

Listening to the suppressed crying of many Team Members, even she, who usually kept strong, shed tears.

In the morning, Xiao Niannian left the Dormitory ten minutes early. When she arrived at the Training Ground, she saw Lu Jing there too.

She walked closer to Lu Jing and saw that his eyes were bloodshot; she knew he hadn't slept all night either.

"Blow the whistle and have them assemble. Let them train hard today. Once they are tired from training, they won't think about anything else."

Xiao Niannian said to Lu Jing.

"Mhm."

Lu Jing looked around, then looked at his wife, and said.

"Today, we'll take them into the mountains to climb all day," Lu Jing said, outlining his plan.

"Walk from here to this mountain... We can rest at this spot at noon... It works out perfectly for a full day of patrol..."

Hearing Lu Jing say this, Xiao Niannian nodded.

"Go apply for permission from the Captain."

"I've already applied and received approval."

Xiao Niannian nodded upon hearing Lu Jing's words.

"Phew."

As the whistle sounded, Team Members from various Dormitories ran out of their rooms.

After having the Team Members run three kilometers, Lu Jing spoke.

"Today, we are going into the mountains for wilderness armed cross-country training... Now, go to your Dormitories, pack your gear, then go to the Mess Hall to eat. Assemble here in half an hour..."

Half an hour later, all the Team Members had their bags packed and walked toward the gate of the Special Forces Brigade.

After exiting the gate, Xiao Niannian and the others walked toward the mountains.

They encountered many Civilians on the road, and Xiao Niannian heard them discussing.

"Which Military Unit is this?"

"It seems to be the Military Unit stationed in our County Government."

"Are they going to war?"

"It shouldn't be a war."

The Civilians not only talked about this but also mentioned that elderly person.

"Wuwuwu... our beloved... why is God doing this..."

Xiao Niannian quickened her pace and walked toward Lu Jing.

Once they reached the mountains, everyone slowed down.

Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing dispatched Instructors and Elite Team Members to be responsible for the safety of the entire team. The Instructors held Walkie-Talkies at all times, reporting the situation.

"All teams report your situation."

"Reporting, Captain Lu, First Team, First Squad, all normal."

"Reporting, Captain Lu, First Team, Second Squad, all normal."

All the Squads reported their situation.

After walking for three hours, Lu Jing and the others stopped.

By this time, they had already crossed several mountain peaks.

"Rest for fifteen minutes, then continue."

The members of each team found places to rest; some stood, some leaned against a tree, and others sat on rocks.

Shen Yan looked around and spoke.

"I heard there are many Treasures in these mountains."

Hearing Shen Yan's words, the other Team Members immediately became interested, and many looked at Shen Yan curiously.

"Shen Yan, what kind of Treasures are you talking about? Could they be Treasures left by ancient people?"

"Could it be Gold, Silver, and Jewels?"

"There are plenty of animals in these mountains, but where are the Treasures you mentioned?"

"If there really are Treasures, we'll dig them up."

Everyone spoke, one after the other.

"I'm talking about things like ginseng in the mountains."

"Hmph, I thought you were talking about Treasures left by ancient times."

As Xiao Niannian walked over and heard Shen Yan and the others talking, she glanced at them and walked toward the teams in the rear.

Fifteen minutes later, they continued walking into the mountains.

Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing had been on this road before; it was the same route they took for the last rescue mission.

Xiao Niannian frowned, remembering the last rescue operation.

Currently, the Polar Bear's attitude toward Our Country is not good. Before, when they acted this way, those people were also exchanged back.

At a time like this, they might take the opportunity to cause trouble again.

Xiao Niannian picked up her Binoculars and observed the situation on the opposite and surrounding mountains.

In such cold weather, animals in the mountains rarely appeared; some were hibernating, and others had found places to hide.

At noon, they found a Cave to rest in, which had a large Platform outside.

All teams began making fires.

Xiao Niannian watched them start the fires.

The firewood was somewhat damp, making it difficult for some to start a fire. Smoke kept rising, but the flames wouldn't catch.

The other Team Members searched everywhere in the mountains and brought back drier firewood.

After a good while longer, fires were lit for all the teams. Some had even picked Wild Vegetables in the mountains and cooked them together.

Xiao Niannian heard birds chirping on the opposite mountain. She looked up toward the mountains not far away.

She picked up her Binoculars and observed carefully.

Lu Jing saw this and walked over.

"Did you find anything?"

Xiao Niannian shook her head.

"Nothing discovered yet."

Hearing his wife's words, Lu Jing also picked up the Binoculars.

Xiao Niannian watched for a while but didn't find anything amiss.
