95: Xiao Niannian also learned how to repair cars.

"Battalion Commander, we discovered two people one hundred meters ahead, but they are already dead…"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jing walked over. He saw that the two had blood at the corners of their mouths and grim expressions on their faces.

"Captain Lu, they died from poisoning…"

After the subordinate checked, he reported the situation.

"Preliminary assessment indicates they died half an hour ago… Several of the steamed buns and stuffed buns they ate were highly poisonous. The dead animals nearby also ate the buns."

Lu Jing nodded and said,

"Search their bodies for anything useful… and search the surrounding area carefully as well."

The items they had on them were also packed into bags, to be investigated thoroughly after returning to see if any clues could be found.

After carefully searching the surroundings and finding no other traces, Lu Jing had his men bury the two people.

In the military camp.

Xiao Niannian was brought in front of a few somewhat dilapidated cars. These cars were usable, but they all had minor issues. Occasionally, they would even have major problems.

It just so happened that Division Headquarters had driven over some problematic vehicles, so he could teach Xiao Niannian how to repair them.

However, to his shock, after teaching Xiao Niannian for half a day, not only had she changed the tires, but she had also fixed the persistent rattling sound in the car.

"Comrade Xiao Niannian, you are simply amazing."

"This car won't start, would you like to take a look?"

Xiao Niannian walked over, observed for a while, and then dismantled a few parts. Under the watchful eyes of Squad Leader Li and the other comrades-in-arms, she replaced a part, reassembled it, and it started immediately.

"Good heavens, Comrade Xiao Niannian, you are truly amazing."

Previously, a few Soldiers in the motor transport platoon had felt that women learning to drive was nothing special, as only male comrades learned to drive in their unit.

They had even been discussing how many days it would take for Comrade Xiao Niannian to learn to drive, not expecting that she would learn in less than a day.

Now, after learning for just one morning, she had actually learned to repair cars as well, and had repaired three cars in a row.

"It's really fixed."

After checking, Squad Leader Li shouted excitedly.

"Let us applaud Comrade Xiao Niannian. She is truly so talented."

The Soldiers of the Motor Transport Company now looked at Xiao Niannian with eyes full of admiration and worship.

"Clap, clap, clap."

The entire company erupted in applause.

The veterans in the company taught Xiao Niannian even more diligently.

They discovered that for everything, they only needed to teach it once, and Comrade Xiao Niannian would remember it. Moreover, when encountering problems, she could draw inferences. Even if something was slightly off, Comrade Xiao Niannian could quickly identify it and fix the car.

"Our company is going out to transport supplies this afternoon, Comrade Xiao, you should come with us…"

Squad Leader Li said.

Hearing this, Xiao Niannian immediately agreed.

"Yes."

That was great! She would be able to go out and transport supplies this afternoon. Although she wouldn't be driving, she would soon be able to drive out to transport supplies herself.

After lunch, Xiao Niannian followed the comrades-in-arms from the motor transport platoon and left the Reconnaissance Battalion.

Xiao Niannian sat in the passenger seat, her gaze fixed outside.

A few days ago, when she went down to the company, she had memorized the route from Division Headquarters to the company. Now, she continued to observe these routes.

Currently, she didn't have a map in her hands, so after traveling these roads, she kept them in her mind. Later, she could traverse all these roads, and she wouldn't get lost in the future.

Additionally, once there was an opportunity, she would go to the battalion headquarters or a bookstore and other places to see if there were any maps. If she memorized the maps, it would be more convenient to do things in the future.

Xiao Niannian thought of neighboring Hui County again. Because after she spoke to the Monkey King, the Monkey King had been a bit late in getting the animals to inquire about the news and hadn't tracked those people, so now she only knew that those people were in neighboring Hui County.

She didn't know where their stronghold was. If she knew the stronghold, she could send monkeys or other animals to keep an eye on it. Then she would be able to find out more information.

Of course, Xiao Niannian didn't place all her hopes on the animals. She didn't know if the system she currently possessed was reliable. If it disappeared one day, she would only be able to rely on the skills she had learned.

However, her current memory was indeed much better than hers in the original world.

Over the past few days, she had been learning to drive and repair cars with dedication. She had indeed learned these things in one go, because she already knew how to do them.

But she had also noted down other things that the squad leaders had mentioned.

Even though she was originally a Special Forces Soldier, it was now the 1970s, and some things were different from the world she came from. She had to learn the things here, the rules here, and integrate into this world.

However, she also had her own persistence and wouldn't be changed by this place.

But at the same time, in the original world, she protected her home and country, and here, she would likewise protect her home and country.

"Comrade Xiao, is your hometown in Wang County?"

Hearing Company Commander Yun's words, Xiao Niannian replied.

"My hometown is in Wang County."

"My hometown is in Xiang County."

Hearing that Company Commander Yun's hometown was in Xiang County, Xiao Niannian understood that this was the hometown of the Chairman. Because the Chairman and other senior predecessors came from there, there were far more people from Xiang County joining the Military Unit than from other counties.

"I heard you were first in the New Recruit Regiment, are your elders in the family Soldiers?"

Xiao Niannian nodded.

"My grandfather and father are both Soldiers."

Hearing this, Company Commander Yun looked at Xiao Niannian with a smile.

"I guessed right."

Xiao Niannian had also heard of Company Commander Yun over the past two days, and she guessed that Company Commander Yun's father was also a Soldier.

After Company Commander Yun asked a few more questions, he didn't speak again.

He had attended the commendation ceremony at Division Headquarters previously.

He hadn't expected that Comrade Xiao Niannian had actually worked with Battalion Commander Lu and the others to protect so many of the Masses.

Battalion Commander Han and the others also knew about this matter, and given that Comrade Xiao Niannian was so outstanding, yet had been assigned to the support platoon, that was why they had arranged for Comrade Xiao Niannian to come to the Motor Transport Company to learn to drive.

As soon as Battalion Commander Han mentioned it, he immediately agreed.

If it weren't for the fact that Comrade Xiao Niannian was a woman, if Comrade Xiao Niannian were a male comrade, he would definitely have fought to get her into their Motor Transport Company. With such an outstanding comrade, if they had one more in their Motor Transport Company, who knows how many comrades-in-arms could be encouraged to improve together.

It was a pity that they didn't have any Female Soldiers in their Motor Transport Company right now.

Only occasionally would some Female Soldiers come over to learn how to drive. Once they learned to drive small cars, they would immediately return to their original units.

After arriving at Division Headquarters, Xiao Niannian got out of the car. Seeing everyone go into the warehouse to move things, she followed them over.

When Squad Leader Li saw Xiao Niannian, he immediately stopped her.

"Comrade Xiao, you just watch here, we'll move the things."

There were so many things, and most of them were quite heavy. Moreover, because many had been stored for a long time, they were quite dusty.
