Rebirth: Don't Want to Be Hot-blooded

The entire training plan of the border defense regiment is designed around the existing situation in the defense zone.

Usually, training in the mountains and woods accounts for most of the time.

Whether it is physical fitness or actual combat, the training is aimed at these. An Chuxia’s training time is not long, but it has been several months since the recruit company.

An Chuxia seemed to have gotten used to walking on mountain roads and wandering through the woods. She didn't feel there was anything wrong with walking on this mountain road.

You can even follow closely behind them.

She knew that among these people, her physical fitness was the worst. Even if she didn't run five kilometers, the intensity would not be bad if she walked all the way.

Not to mention, I have to carry so many supplies and articles. Everything I need for the week is in the backpack, and the weight is not light.

The line patrol job is not like training, where there is a fixed distance of a certain number of kilometers.

During this period, various problems will be encountered. It is common to take detours or climb mountains and go into the water, so this first mission is so difficult. She started to feel nervous before she even started.

I followed them carefully all the way and was extremely attentive.

She knew these veterans too well. The paths they took were the safest and easiest to travel, so it would be a good idea to follow them.

And sometimes, when you look at the same road but step in different places, it is not only difficult to walk, but also potentially dangerous, so she really dare not make any mistakes.

Completely different from her nervousness, the people in front were joking and chatting with each other from time to time, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

Even Xia Lan would occasionally join in the conversation.

And they talked about everything, from this routine work to other training, which were all official business.

But as we chatted, we found that we had already talked about the issue of promotion quotas.

If An Chuxia remembered correctly, the promotion quota should go to the squad leader who had already left.

But now that the squad leader has left, this spot cannot be wasted, and who gets it is what they care about.

This kind of thing is not new. Even in other companies, there is competition for promotions.

I just didn't expect that they would discuss it so blatantly.

This doesn't care about Xia Lan's life or death at all!

"Are you all so careless?" An Chuxia finally couldn't help but speak and asked in a low voice.

Tian Xi, who was standing by, was stunned at first, but then he understood what she meant and laughed, "What's the big deal? It should have been Ning's turn."

"There is actually no difference between him and the squad leader in terms of seniority or meritorious performance."

"It's just that if the squad leader doesn't get promoted this year, his term limit will expire, so this spot will be given to him."

At this point, he sighed helplessly, "It's a pity for the squad leader. If he were still here, he would be reporting in soon."

After listening to his explanation, An Chuxia nodded in sudden realization and understood why they talked about these things so recklessly.

"You didn't say a word all the way, why are you interested in this?" Tian Xi didn't understand what she was suddenly curious about.

An Chuxia looked at him with amusement, "I'm not interested in this, I'm just a little surprised to hear you guys...discussing it like this."

After hearing this, Tian Xi suddenly realized it and looked at her with amusement, "You are embarrassing Staff Officer Xia."

An Chuxia looked back, fortunately Xia Lan didn't notice this.

She slapped Tian Xi helplessly and said, "How could I understand? I'm a new soldier. According to the normal procedure, I'm still memorizing the codes in the communications company."

"Then who told you to follow this abnormal procedure?" Tian Xi laughed out loud.

Then he said, "I just started working as a communicator not long ago, and I was also taken out. It's nothing."

"Once you go through it once, you'll find... it's not that difficult."

An Chuxia said directly, "Do you believe what you said?"

After hearing this, Tian Xi also laughed awkwardly.

An Chuxia didn't want to dwell on it any longer, so she just asked, "I only looked at the entire patrol route and the time."

"Do you know the detailed arrangements?"

Tian Xi nodded without thinking, "I know. Today we are not walking far. We just need to cross this mountain, then we can rest and reach the border."

“Once we get there, the real line inspection begins.”

"So... we are still far away from the border now?" An Chuxia felt overwhelmed when she heard this.

"Of course." Tian Xi sighed with emotion, "This is the situation in our defense zone. Most of the places are inaccessible by car, and we need to walk to get there."

“Whether it’s line patrol or an emergency, it’s the same.”

"Especially at the border checkpoints, it's difficult to even get supplies there."

After hearing his words, An Chuxia began to understand why the village in the TV series had no one to protect it and even had to face enemies outside the border directly.

This situation was almost unimaginable in the previous life.

Not to mention being bullied at the border, even if our compatriots are abroad, there are still people to protect them.

Even in an inaccessible place like this, there are too many high-tech equipment for monitoring.

But now there is nothing, no drones, and no other advanced equipment. We can only rely on a group of people and a few guns.

For the first time, An Chuxia personally felt the difficulties faced by the border guards in this world.

But she also realized that this was just the beginning.

According to Tian Xi, this place is still far from the border, and it will take at least the afternoon to get over the mountain.

Does this mean that after a day of hard work, you may have just reached the starting point?

"It's just the beginning, and you're scared already?" Xia Lan asked, perhaps because she heard what they said.

"I was scared before I even started, and you didn't give me a chance to regret it, did you?" An Chuxia sighed deeply, "Hey, who would use a communicator as a member of a combat squad?"

"Mine." Xia Lan said without thinking, "Which company commander has a mission and the communicator doesn't follow him?"

"So you have to adapt. And don't forget that I'm the intelligence officer. I have to do more than just lead them to patrol the line."

After hearing this, An Chuxia finally turned around and looked over, "Sister...you are my biological sister. You are a sniper, can you still take me to the battlefield?"

Seeing her frightened expression, Xia Lan smiled even more happily, "This is not absolute."

"Who in the combat squad hasn't been to the battlefield? You follow me every day, so even if there is no planned combat mission, you may still encounter it."

An Chuxia was stunned for a moment, and suddenly looked at Tian Xi, "You have also participated in combat missions?"

Tian Xi nodded subconsciously, "How could there be no such thing if I follow Liao Lian..."

An Chuxia choked, "So... this line patrol is really simple?"

"What else do you think?" Xia Lan took a few quick steps and patted her. "Why else would I bring you here first? Shouldn't I bring you here to collect intelligence first?"

An Chuxia sighed helplessly, "Okay, thank you..."

Looking at the tone of the two people's conversation, Tian Xi looked at An Chuxia and then at Xia Lan with some disbelief.

"What's with that look on your face? Did I eat me?" She saw him glaring at her.

Tian Xi looked at her, then looked at Xia Lan, "Do you and Staff Officer Xia always talk like this?"

An Chuxia was also stunned by his sudden question, and subconsciously wanted to ask why he was talking?

But then she thought that neither Tian Xi nor the other correspondents seemed to be as casual as her.

And this was still restrained. When she was alone with Xia Lan, she was even more casual.

At one moment, he realized that she seemed... different from them.

Maybe she was used to the working conditions in her previous life. Even after entering the military camp, she had begun to adapt, but she was used to that working mode and she didn't feel nervous when facing Xia Lan.

Gradually, I seemed to get used to this way of getting along, which seemed a little weird to others.

But An Chuxia also reacted, "How else can I put it? Do you stand at attention and shout report every day?"

"It's not a formal occasion, but I will pay attention to formal occasions."

Tian Xi came back to his senses and gave her a thumbs up.

As they chatted, An Chuxia found that she was not as nervous as before, and she walked much more easily.

Xia Lan seemed to see her reaction and said directly, "It's right to follow the veteran closely, but you don't have to be so tense all the time."

"There are only a few days left. Why are you so tense? What are you going to do next?"

An Chuxia sighed, "I'm not worried. There are traps everywhere. If you make a mistake, you'll fall out!"

"So you have to learn to find your own way." Xia Lan said directly, "You can't always follow them, there must be a time for you to find your own way."

An Chuxia didn't want to go out by herself at all. Following the veteran, she felt that she was already challenging her limits.

Thinking about going into the woods by himself, facing these unknowns, and even facing the enemy, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Can we... not take such big steps?"

"Take your time. I'm afraid that if you ask me to learn how to survive in the wild today, you'll ask me to fight the drug trafficking organization alone tomorrow."

Several people burst into laughter after hearing what she said.

Ning Ban couldn't help but tease her when he heard her words, "You can't do that, but Chief of Staff Xia has challenged drug trafficking organizations alone more than once."

An Chuxia sighed helplessly, "You compare me to Staff Officer Xia, don't you think too highly of me?"

Indeed, Xia Lan's record is really beyond her reach.

But having said that, he walked again, no longer just staring at the person in front of him, but also paying attention to himself.

What kind of road may seem like there is no way to go, but there is no problem; what kind of road may seem like there is a way to go, but you should take a detour.

Whether it was the person in front or Xia Lan, they all knew this forest very well.

But when I think about Xia Lan’s itinerary arrangements, I feel relieved.

She could say that because of her special status, she would be away from the camp for a period of time each year. As for what mission she was carrying out, An Chuxia did not have the authority to know.

But I also knew that at that time it would be like those special missions in TV dramas. I didn’t know what the situation was, but the danger was certain.

But when she was not outside, she still had to be on duty, lead a team, etc., and she never got any special treatment.

So An Chuxia was not surprised at all that she was familiar with this place.

But the thought that whenever Xia Lan led a team out in the future, she might have to follow her made her even more troubled.

It's been less than a day and I already feel how hard it is.

It really happened every once in a while, and she really wanted to cry.

But think about it, she is Xia Lan's correspondent. How could it be possible that the leader would go out, which is hard and dangerous, while she stays at home to write documents?

It is even possible that he will be thrown here alone occasionally, just like Tian Xi.

When I think about these things, I really regret becoming a correspondent. It would have been better if I could have worked in logistics at that time.

She didn't have much time to sigh as the team in front suddenly stopped.

"There is a collapsed area ahead. Should we take a detour?" Squad Leader Ning walked over and asked Xia Lan.

After hearing this, Xia Lan hurried over.

At this time, An Chuxia also saw the situation in front of her. It should be caused by the rain on the mountain, which caused a landslide.

The road that was supposed to go down the mountain was like a cliff.

"Can we go directly to our resting place below?" Xia Lan looked ahead.

Ningban nodded, "Yeah, you can usually rest after walking through here."

"But who knew it would collapse? Now we either have to go down from here or take a detour."

Xia Lan also understood that although going down directly from here was fast, it was still somewhat dangerous, and someone needed to go down and explore the way first.

Seeing her observing the situation here, Ning Ban seemed to understand what she meant and immediately said, "I'll go down and take a look. If possible, we should take this shorter route."

Hearing his words, Xia Lan waved her hand and said, "Let me do it, you guys tie the rope."

As he spoke, he took off his backpack and put it aside. "Everyone is tired after walking all day. Let's get to the destination early and rest early so that we can set off early tomorrow morning."

Squad Leader Ning wanted to say something, but maybe because he knew her character, he held back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He asked someone to prepare the rope and he even tied it up himself.

"Colonel Xia, are we just...going down directly like this?" An Chuxia came over with some concern.

I looked down at the landslide. Although it was not very high, the angle was too straight, almost 90 degrees.

It's just a rope protecting us, and it's really dangerous to go down like this.

Xia Lan glanced at her and said, "Even if we don't leave here, we have to understand the situation here, otherwise the next time people come to patrol the line, they will still know nothing about the situation here."

"There are more than just dangerous anomalies on our maps and patrol records."

An Chuxia nodded suddenly and didn't try to persuade him anymore.

Although she didn't quite understand why she insisted on being stubborn when there were so many people who could go down.

But she has been showing off her stubbornness for a long time. At this moment, not to mention that she is just a communicator, even the regiment commander may not be able to persuade her.

Ning Ban obviously knew this as well. He tied the rope himself and handed one end to Xia Lan. "Staff Officer Xia, if there's something wrong down there, we'll pull you up right away!"
