Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 901 - Chapter 901 Chapter 900 Actual Combat

Chapter 901: Chapter 900: Actual Combat Chapter 901: Chapter 900: Actual Combat As they talked, the sound of ear-splitting gunfire continued to erupt, indicating from its intensity just how spectacular the firing was. Xue Chao listened and felt a pang of distress; so many shells fired, all of that was money! The chief of logistics must have had a very grim look on his face upon seeing the rounds being fired like they cost nothing.

“Disperse! We’re taking an unexpected holiday today.” Shen Lijun blew a whistle, but the sound of the gunfire drowned it out. Eventually, he had no choice but to quickly run inside and wave his hands to signal that they could break.

Army 129, the most elite among the Northern Military District’s trump cards, not only had an ideal geographical location for its base but also had exclusive military training grounds that were the best in the entire Northern Military District. All major and minor activities usually took place here.

On the outskirts of the training ground, there stood a central command post. Strategically located with an excellent field of vision, binoculars could be used to encompass the entire area at a glance.

At this moment atop the command post’s guard tower stood many of the military’s heavyweights. Though only dressed in the camouflage gear meant for exercises, each one of them was impressively commanding. They were far away, yet amidst their casual conversation, they managed to analyze the situation on the exercise grounds with clear precision.

The exercise had been ongoing for a week, and only two armies, including Army 129, remained on the field, marked as the Red and Blue sides.

With each shudder of artillery fire, the guard tower vibrated without cease, and the shockwave from the shells advanced in layers of booming waves. The tree tops in the vicinity had already been stripped of all their leaves by the incoming shockwaves.

The trees within a thousand square meters were now completely bare, not a single leaf in sight.

With such a grand scene before them, all the commanders maintained a dumbfounded look, speechless for a long time. Everyone held high-powered binoculars, intently watching the direction of the main battlefield.

It took a while before the thunderous sound of the shells ceased. Because the sound of the bullets didn’t carry that far due to their rapid velocity, it was only then that everyone could speak.

Suddenly, the wooden stairs of the guard tower echoed with a thudding sound of footsteps as a sentry rushed over.

In the center of the surrounding crowd stood a man around sixty years old, and though of age, his back was still straight, exuding an imposing and energetic presence that was awe-inspiring. He was the Commander of the Northern Military Region, the top leader, Song Jingxiong.

“Report!” The sentry quickly snapped to attention and gave a crisp salute to the group.

“Speak!” Song Jingxiong’s voice was deep and powerful, his eyes shining with intensity, adding a layer of tension when he looked at the sentry.

Huo Beijiang was an utterly reckless bastard. Even with Song’s support, if a large-scale casualty event were to happen, the consequences would be unbearable for anyone involved.

“How is it? Are there any casualties?” Ge Jincheng, the commander of Army 129, asked anxiously.

He had been observing through binoculars from a great distance, and seeing the suppressive fire, he knew that Army 129 must have been at a disadvantage. He feared for the safety of his troops; any loss would be like cutting flesh from his own heart.

Xi Liqun looked equally tense. Before coming here, Huo Beijiang had made him swear an oath to not return alive if he didn’t take the first place. Damn it, he had thought the kid was just bragging. Damn, who knew this kid wasn’t just blowing hot air but was actually modest about it.

This wasn’t about not returning alive! It was about taking everyone down with him.

Even for him, a seasoned veteran of battles, the sight was enough to make one’s blood run cold.

That bastard was utterly lawless, daring to do such things. And Lei Hao, who was normally so stable, how could he join in the madness? Although Huo Beijiang was his reliable subordinate, in times like these, Xi couldn’t help but sympathize with Ge Jincheng against his better conscience.
