Female officers are not a rare species in the army. After all, all military personnel, regardless of gender, are required to serve when they are 18 years old. Naturally, the ratio of men to women in the army is not unbalanced. From low-level officers to mid-level and senior generals, the ratio of men to women is maintained. At the level of 73, it is not a bit better than the situation before the war where there might be only sows in the entire military camp.

Looking at this group of female officers wearing gold tassels and red breeches, the team was a little restless. But no one was so full that they did stupid things like whistling and swearing. At most, they just glanced here and there like knives.

Shen Rusong grabbed the barbed wire with his fingers and glanced at the female officers passing by. His attitude was that since they looked good, he shouldn't look at them, so as not to miss them in the future.

While calculating how much allowance he had left to send home, he was also thinking about what day it was today. It turned out that there was a transport plane sending officers from the Longshan headquarters to the base. It would have been a special operations force, but these people were obviously doing clerical work or something like that. , knowledgeable veterans can tell by looking at their hands that there are no calluses. They are not in the armed forces but in civilian service.

Although there is a shortage of everything in the base, there is really no shortage of paperwork. Almost all civilian positions in the army are held by women, and other light physical jobs such as correspondents, searchlight soldiers, anti-aircraft gun auxiliary gunners, etc. are actually handled by female soldiers. Want to join the combat force? First of all, you must be strong and round, and at least you must be agile and dexterous. Among the female soldiers Shen Rusong knew, half were tall and fierce women like Xin Jie, and the other half were dexterous players like Chen Xiaoxiang and Xu Sheng.

Sitting in the office? Sorry, from the perspective of front-line troops, it is equivalent to not being diligent in all four parts and not being able to distinguish grain from grain.

The crowd in the queue murmured about what they would do. Shen Rusong raised his eyebrows and noticed that the common features of these female officers were that they were very young, with clean and delicate eyebrows. They were all handcuffed with file boxes at their wrists, but the soldiers accompanying them were Full of vigor.

I'm afraid Longshan University sent people to do field internships. Shen Rusong thought.

In less than half an hour, the transport plane was towed into the warehouse, and the group of people quickly disappeared deep into the airport. Shen Rusong had to suffer for almost an hour before it was his turn. He gritted his teeth and sent back all the remaining money and copies of the diary.

He put a note on the front page of the diary, saying that he could not open the diary until the news of his sacrifice was confirmed. Without him, there would be too much of his own nagging in it.

Is this similar to a joke before the war? After a certain person got into a car accident, he forced himself to delete all the web browsing history on his mobile phone before he passed out.

Shen Rusong roughly understood the connection between the joke and his instructions, but he couldn't understand the point of the joke because he neither understood "smartphones" nor "web pages." He had used computers, but military laptops did not have access to the Internet.

Putting all that aside, we headed back to the barracks for a final check before departure. Shen Rusong checked the backpacks of everyone in the class one by one to make sure they had enough anti-radiation drugs.

"Squad leader, it's almost October. It's almost November, and the temperature will drop to below zero. Can we return to base Maodong before November?" Xie Guorong asked.

Shen Rusong put his hands into the pockets of his military uniform and subconsciously glanced at his watch. The temperature on it showed 20 degrees, but this was indoors. The outdoor temperature had dropped to 15 to 17 degrees, and it was basically hovering in October. Around ten degrees. When a cold wave comes, it’s not surprising to see temperatures drop to minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius.

Shen Rusong folded the fleece-lined military uniform and put it in his bag, touched Xie Guorong's head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you will freeze us? What you want, the higher-ups have already thought about it for us."

After saying that, Shen Rusong looked at the people in the class, and everyone was staring at him.

Shen Rusong clenched his fists and then unclenched them. He choked slightly and said, "Let's unite our class into one, and we will win!"

"Keep fighting and revive the motherland!"

The next day, all the troops gathered together and, after a brief lecture, set off.

Due to the serious damage to the Beiqin base and the extremely tight railway transportation capacity, the old Chinese had no choice but to display their traditional good style and march on iron bases. The weather is good, the weather is getting hotter today, and a line of logistics trucks is speeding by on the dry and hard dirt road. When the tires grind on the road, the sky is filled with smoke and dust, which makes people cough.

The infantrymen walking on the roadside immediately started yelling and swearing. Some of the good-hearted people picked up the dirt and threw it at the truck. However, even if they were hit, they would only hear a sound. Instead, they provoked a burst of merciless ridicule. The hitchhikers on the car railings were all shameless, laughing and joking, which made the infantrymen who had been exposed to the sun and eat ashes furious.

"Damn it, don't let me catch you!" Li Hao cursed at a truck that had just driven by. The dust was so big that it would have blinded you even if you were wearing a dust towel. The fine dust in the north is so pervasive that you can't breathe. It felt like it was soaked in some kind of mucus, and it was very uncomfortable.

If someone hadn't stopped him, Li Hao would have jumped out of the queue and given the truck a beating when it slowed down.

"Aren't you tired, Mouse?" Seeing Li Hao's energy, Yang Qi said angrily, holding his gun flat with both hands, as if he was carrying a pole.

"If you're not tired, just carry some for me. Before we set off, it was you, a bitch, who told me to bring more compressed biscuits. It killed me." As he spoke, Yang Qi twisted his hips. Indeed, he not only carried himself A military backpack with two barrels of compressed biscuits in tinplate cans hung on it. Good guy, each of the compressed biscuits is as thick as a brick, and the two buckets together weigh five kilograms. Maybe Yang Qi just picked up the bag and felt that he was used to it. It didn't matter if he was young and strong, but after walking for ten or twenty kilometers in a row, he naturally felt, ah, it's getting heavier and heavier...

But Li Hao said it with the intention of teasing him. Now if he replies to Yang Qi, he loses, so the way he responds is to raise his hand with missing fingers and hug him with half sympathy and half It was a mocking laugh, more silent than loud. It simply said:

Are you embarrassed to let me, a disabled person, carry it for you?

Shen Rusong looked at the two tough guys and groaned. He chewed the hard candy in his mouth without making a sound. What was he making? Having the strength to speak means that the load is still light. Didn't you see that the new recruits who were just assigned were just sticking out their tongues and panting? Speech? Even if a dragon flew past now, they would have to wait for a while before they noticed it.

During training, Shen Rusong might hold the gun for others to reduce the weight, but now they are marching. He can help with other things, but it is absolutely impossible to hold the gun, dry food bag, and chest vest for others. As for the march, Bag? They all said that they would put mules and horses on carts. If you have the ability to carry an extra thirty kilograms, then feel free to do so.

Shen Rusong took the lead and walked in front, while Deng Feng led the team behind. This ruffian had only one solution to deal with the soldiers who couldn't walk, and that was gun butts and leather boots. He had to choose between being beaten or continuing to walk. He wouldn't care about men or women. He would just endure it if he kicked him. If he could, he would drive off the soldiers on the mule cart and have a fight. Whoever wins would get on.

For the soldiers of Class 2, this is not their first experience of long-distance marching. They walked around thousands of mountains for more than a month. Compared with suffering in the snowstorm, walking 20 to 30 kilometers a day was not less enjoyable. Now, at least I can chat while walking, and glance at the female soldiers passing by. If they are familiar with each other, it is not impossible for them to take advantage of them if they are happy. Orders are orders, are the squad leader's eyes hanging in the sky or is there a radar on his forehead?

Shen Rusong's attention was naturally not on the affairs of men and women. He was more concerned about the radiation value. As he slowly approached the Beiqin base, he watched as the radiation count pointer on his watch approached the yellow area, which meant that the average radiation dose in this area did not exceed 100 millisieverts, which was a safe area. However, if it reaches more than 100 and less than 400, it is a low-risk area. Long-term stay will cause chronic diseases or obvious physical discomfort. Radiation protection components must be worn for outdoor activities lasting more than 1 hour.

This time we are going deep into Tong'anling, which is a strong radiation area. Once we cross the Huijiang River, all members must wear chemical protective clothing, the kind of combat chemical protective clothing made of flame-retardant rubber. Covered from head to toe, only the face is exposed, and the face is either wearing a full-face gas mask, or the familiar two-piece suit, goggles and a half-face breathing filter. The latter is reserved for squad platoon leaders because they wear There are command responsibilities that require a broader perspective.

If you are operating in a weak radiation area, it will not exceed the Huanglin Military Station. Well, it is the small military station that invited a supply convoy to drink home-brew cider, but was destroyed by the aftermath of the beast tide. To move around in this area, it is enough for everyone to put lead-lined sheaths on their chests and crotches.

As for how harmful radiation precipitation is to the body, everyone has a tacit understanding not to talk about it. Anyway, everyone knows that radiation pathology has always been the signature department of various hospitals. When you go out to serve in the underground city, you will always encounter trucks after trucks in the ascending tunnel. Disabled soldiers sent to the convalescence area.

The only good thing about radiation is that it probably helps plant growth? Shen Rusong thought.

The order to set up camp came through the communicator, and four short whistles sounded alternately in the long queue. The soldiers stopped in relief. The combat troops were okay, but the other two infantry battalions drawn from the infrastructure troops to replenish their troops did not perform so well. Many recruits fell backwards and were brought down by their backpacks.

"Why did you think of setting up camp in such an unlucky place?" Chen Xiaoxiang led the horse to Shen Rusong and said.

"Why don't we go to the forest?" Shen Rusong glanced at her war horse. This gray horse named "Xunka" had been raised in the Yanqi base before. I don't know what method Chen Xiaoxiang used to get it. Someone brought it over. Originally, her cavalry squad was improvised into 3 squads due to lack of manpower. After adding, it changed back to the original 9-man cavalry squad.

"Come up." Chen Xiaoxiang said.

"What's coming up?" Shen Rusong thought he heard wrongly.

"I told you to come up." Chen Xiaoxiang said impatiently.

"Are you crazy?" Riding on the same horse in broad daylight is really not afraid of death.

Chen Xiaoxiang kicked Shen Rusong. She reined in the reins and said scornfully: "Burn the grass! Burn a circle of grass! The flamethrower is on your engineers, do you want us to use a knife to cut it?"

Shen Rusong looked back at the queue heading toward the wilderness. He took off his helmet and scratched his sweaty hair and said, "I will take people there."
