Chapter 579

Shen Ao glanced at Bai Ying suspiciously, but did not ask any more questions. He called Bai Ying to go to the training ground together.

After everyone arrived and the inventory was completed, the group set off.

The destination is Quqiu County, more than 100 kilometers away.

In order not to alert the enemy spies in advance, these more than 500 people needed to march on foot, specifically choosing some more hidden paths and mountain roads.

Normal marches are continuous marches for eight to ten hours, and we can walk about four or five kilometers in an hour. We can walk thirty to forty kilometers a day, and there is no problem in persisting for three to five days.

In addition to regular marches, there are also forced marches. After the 1960s, forced marches were changed to forced marches. The marching speed would double, and people would have to walk hundreds of kilometers a day.

If it comes to a life-and-death situation, even everything except weapons and ammunition can be discarded appropriately, travel light, and make every effort to arrive at the battlefield on time!

In addition to being much faster than normal marches, forced marches also require walking continuously for more than twelve hours a day. Even ordinary soldiers cannot withstand this level of marching, so ordinary troops generally do not arrange this kind of training.

But this time it was different. Captain He’s task was very urgent. If the task was not completed, there would likely be serious consequences. So after a little thought, Fang Qingquan decided to use a forced march to travel.

As the speed increased, many soldiers fell behind. Even soldiers who had been training for years could not withstand this speed, not to mention Bai Ying and He Shiwen, two military doctors who had just been trained for a short time.

Therefore, Fang Qingquan organized another reception team, managed by Shen Ao, to take in those who fell behind, which was equivalent to covering the rear of the team.

Fang Qingquan took two-thirds of the soldiers and rushed to Quqiu County as quickly as possible to join the soldiers in Quqiu County.

It’s not Fang Qingquan’s fault for making such a choice.

He was considering the issue from the perspective of the main commander. If the march lasted too long, he would have too many things to worry about, which would likely affect the progress of the mission.

After thinking about this, Fang Qingquan called Shen Ao, Bai Ying and others over and told them his plan.

"Captain Shen, what do you think?"

Shen Ao shook his head. "I have no objection. Since Captain Fang has made up his mind, I will strictly follow the military order."

"So, Doctor Bai and Comrade He, what do you think?"

Fang Qingquan looked at Bai Ying and the other person again, his eyes flashing with a shrewd light, as if he wanted to penetrate Bai Ying's heart and see the secret she was hiding.

In fact, he originally assigned Shen Ao to the camp in order to keep a close eye on this man. After this period of investigation, Shen Ao's suspicion of collaborating with the enemy has been ruled out.

But he never had the chance to get close to Bai Ying. This mission could be said to have given him a chance to observe Bai Ying...

Although Bai Ying felt that Fang Qingquan's order was a bit strange, she couldn't put her finger on it for a moment. After thinking it over, she followed her heart and said, "I can't keep up with the speed Captain Fang ordered. I'd better follow the recovery team. That way, the soldiers who have fallen behind can get treatment as quickly as possible."

Hearing Bai Ying's words, He Shiwen quickly responded, "Yes! I'll listen to Bai Ying and follow her!"

"But," Fang Qingquan said meaningfully, "I promised the captain that I would protect you..."

Before he could finish his words, He Shiwen interrupted him hurriedly, "Who needs your protection? Fang, please don't look down on me!"

"Since Comrade He said so, then just follow the shelter team." Fang Qingquan had no intention of continuing to persuade him and made the decision directly.

Give He Shiwen a good beating.

Could she say that she had already thought of more reasons but hadn't said them yet?

I always feel like I've been cheated...

"Captain Shen, you can go now. Staff Officer Jiang, please stay for a moment."

Just as they were about to leave, Fang Qingquan suddenly called out to the staff officer of Shen Ao's company.
