Chapter 58 Battlefield
In the car, the team leader distributed label stickers to each team. The car that Gu Muruan was in was for groups 1 to 10.
When they arrived at the front to join the combat troops participating in the exercise, they placed their personal belongings in the tent, changed into the camouflage uniforms issued by the combat company, and lined up to be on standby at any time.
Gu Muran had always assumed that military exercises were merely simulated confrontations, and that everyone should be cautious to avoid serious injuries. After all, this wasn't a real war; there was no need for a life-or-death struggle. However, when she overheard the stories of soldiers returning from the front lines, she realized how naive she had been.
The soldiers solemnly told her that for soldiers, every military exercise was like a real battlefield. Once engaged, they threw themselves into the fight without reservation, giving their all. They knew that only by treating every exercise like real combat could they continuously improve their combat capabilities and their ability to respond to various emergencies. Furthermore, even when facing their comrades, they could never let their guard down or underestimate them. On the battlefield, even the slightest negligence could have fatal consequences. Therefore, even when they knew they were "on the same side," they would still fight without mercy, striving to forge even greater combat capabilities through fierce competition and better protect the country and its people.
Gu Muran was deeply shocked by these words. Learning from books is ultimately not as memorable as real experience. A bud that had always been there in her heart suddenly broke through the ground and rushed straight into her heart.
Soon, Gu Muran followed the medical team to the designated location. The awe in her heart made her concentrate at all times, not afraid of potential dangers, and focus on bandaging the wounded.
One, two... More and more wounded soldiers were waiting for them to "rescue." Because they were using exercise equipment, none of the injuries were serious, but they were enough to let Gu Muruan and her colleagues see what a real battlefield is like. They knew that defending the country, not fearing bloodshed or sacrifice, was not just talk, but a sense of responsibility and pride engraved in their bones.
After half a month, Gu Muran's physical strength was well trained. She saw many types of soldiers and a lot of equipment, but she did not see Li Qihan, whom Gu's father and mother and Gu Moci mentioned. Of course, Gu Muran would not take the initiative to ask, after all, she did not know him.
By the end of the exercise, Gu Muran and the others had completed their mission. On the way back, the team leader excitedly listened to everyone's feelings and asked everyone to write a reflection and submit it to the academy. A few of them would then be selected and presented to the troops. Everyone wanted to express their special feelings for the soldiers and gladly accepted the task.
Back in S City, Gu Moci came to pick up Gu Muruan, and the first thing he said when he saw her was: "The little bit of meat I raised with great difficulty, has been given away again."
Gu Muruan stuck out her tongue: "Second brother, can't I just be born with a healthy physique? Besides, when I get fat, you will supervise me every day to keep me healthy."
Gu Munuan used to see patients in other departments struggling with weight loss or becoming overweight due to overeating, and their family members accompanying them for checkups would nag them endlessly. Now, she too has people nagging her about weight issues. This feeling is amplified when she returns home to face Grandma Gu and her mother.
