Chapter 1746: Come, Let’s Talk
Since that was the case, why did Company Commander Jiang also know it?!
The answer was obvious.
When Company Commander Jiang saw the female soldier taking out her gun and shooting, he couldn’t help but let out an exclamation. This was a little strange. The female soldier wasn’t a female soldier in their army, so why was her shooting movements the same as theirs?
“Company Commander, the enemy has successfully counterattacked and captured the mouth of the calabash. Our side has lost.”
Commander Jiang, who was about to take a look at the female soldier’s shooting posture, heard the soldier’s voice. He stood up and kept his gun. “You win, female soldier.”
The entire anti-annihilation training lasted eight hours and was completed at 7:23 p.m.
When the members of Storm Commando came back, they helped each other. Some of them were so cold that their lips were turning purple, while others were so frozen that their knees were stiff when they walked.
It was cold, too cold! It was so cold that it seemed as if they would merge into the snow at any moment.
Li Jinnian rubbed his comrade’s swollen fingers with both hands. Although his expression was cold, his brows were furrowed tightly. “Move your feet and start stomping on the ground!”
On the other side, Company Commander Jiang said quickly and anxiously, “Quick, help them to the fire and sit down! Fetch the water, bring some water over! The few of you, boil the snow by the fire!
“Heat up the alcohol and give the brothers with purple lips a few sips!”
How to resist the cold? Company Commander Jiang had his own methods that were quite effective. Taking sips of warm alcohol, using a hot towel to cover one’s face and hands… These were more or less enough to let people breathe freely again.
“Come, come, stick these radish slices to the spots where there’s frostbite until they’re not hot, then roast them over the fire before doing it all over again.” Mr. Zhuge from the Blue Wolf unit handed the radish slices that had been roasted until they were hot to the southern brothers who had frostbite on their hands. He said enthusiastically, “These tricks from the people of our country that were handed down from 5,000 years ago will definitely work!”
This group of brothers from the south… They were really hard working! They could actually endure the cold! Look at that man, his toes were frozen to the point of bleeding, yet he could still endure it. He was a true man!
This was a man-made underground cave at the mouth of the calabash. When the Blue Wolf troops were training in the Gobi, they would rest here at night to start a fire. The cave was warm and could eliminate a day’s fatigue.
However, this fire could not be started just because they wanted to. If not because they were taking care of their brothers who had just come from the south, there would be no fire for warmth.
Everyone had a mouthful of wine and a bowl of boiled snow water. They leaned against each other, and dozens of people received warmth from the two pits of fire.
Ye Jian was much better than the members of Storm Commando. She had experienced cold weather similar to this and her body had a certain resistance. She didn’t drink alcohol and just drank two bowls of warm snow water. Then, she saw Company Commander Jiang walking toward her.
Xia Jinyuan, who was applying frostbite ointment on his comrade, saw this and his gaze became a little tense.
“You must be tired tonight. How is it? Can you keep up?” Company Commander Jiang looked at the young female soldier whose skin was as delicate as a peach. The doubts in his heart grew.
The sun at the northern border was strong. Even the most beautiful female soldier would have their cheeks turn red from the sun in less than half a year. This female soldier was obviously not a female soldier from the northern border. If that was the case, why would she have the unique posture of the Blue Wolf unit?
