Reborn in 1977, starting with severing ties with family.

The farms in the Great Northern Wilderness, formerly known as the Production and Construction Corps, were entirely composed of veterans.

These people, with their passion and youth, laid a solid foundation for those who came to support the Great Northern Wilderness later.

The spirit of daring to fight, not being afraid of hardship or fatigue is deeply ingrained in their hearts.

Therefore, Zhang Jianjun looked down on these educated youths from the city who were always singing high-sounding tunes and crying all the time.

In his eyes, apart from those men who were working just as hard as they were, everyone else was just there to cause trouble.

However, soldiers are duty-bound to obey orders. Even if you don't like it, you still have to lead the soldiers assigned to you well.

The educated youth who were assigned to other brigades would mix with the local villages, which made things much easier for them.

Unlike his place, which only had people from the original production and construction corps and educated youth who were assigned there one after another.

There are no women!

No!

Zhang Jianjun walked right up to Jiang Sen and the others. "Let's go! Speed ​​things up!"

Jiang Sen stood up, looked at Ma Weiguo carrying Bai Qiang's suitcase with a constipated expression, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Do what you can, and the more capable you are, the more work you should do. You'll have to take on the burden!

Wang Dajiang seemed to be smiling too, and when Jiang Sen turned to look at him, his smile widened.

He said, "I don't know how much further."

Jiang Sen said, "It's very far."

"Oh? That means we'll have to walk for a whole day and night?" Wang Dajiang said, somewhat discouraged.

Zhang Jianjun, who was walking ahead, said, "What are you dreaming of? At this pace, you'll be lucky to make it this far in a week."

Wang Dajiang's mouth dropped open.

Jiang Sen chuckled and strode after him.

As darkness fell, Zhang Jianjun would occasionally look back to see if anyone had fallen behind.

He would also shout urging them on from time to time, "Speed ​​up!"

A wolf howl came from somewhere, and Zhang Jianjun's expression changed. He turned around and shouted again, "Run! We're almost there!"

Jiang Sen knew that in the Greater Khingan Mountains, hearing a wolf howl most likely meant that a scout wolf had spotted prey and was alerting the pack.

The prey could be a wild boar, a rabbit, or... them.

The march of the column began to quicken.

Even Lu Xiu started jogging, showing no signs of having been too tired to move before.

The most pitiful one is Bai Qiang.

He not only carried his own luggage but also Lu Xiu's luggage, gritting his teeth and running forward with all his might.

We can already see the hunter's hut ahead.

A corner of the forest peeked out from the mountainside.

There was no smoke coming from the chimney, which meant no one lived there and the hunters were not there either. Jiang Sen was very disappointed.

As the first wolf howl subsided, several more wolf howls could be faintly heard in the distance; they were indeed scout wolves.

"Faster!" Zhang Jianjun roared, increasing the speed once again.

Jiang Sen felt as if his legs no longer belonged to him, and he mechanically followed him forward.

The three female educated youths, disregarding everything else, followed closely behind.

When I was less than 30 meters away from the cabin, I heard a cry of "Ouch!" from behind.

Jiang Sen turned around and saw Lu Xiu again, who was thrown heavily to the ground.

Zhang Jianjun saw it too and shouted, "Get up and keep running! Don't stop!"

Bai Qiang couldn't bear it and reached out to pull Lu Xiu up, but Lu Xiu stood up and ran forward.

Bai Qiang once again felt that his kindness had been devoured by wolves.

He gritted his teeth and chased after them.

"Faster!" Zhang Jianjun shouted, "We're almost there!"

He stopped ten meters in front of the cabin and shouted to Jiang Sen and Ma Weiguo, "Quick! Go inside!"

Jiang Sen ran as fast as he could towards the cabin, opened the door and went inside. He threw down his luggage and suitcase, ran to the stove next to him, grabbed an axe from the woodpile, and ran out again.

Wang Dajiang was the second to go in. He dropped his luggage and, like Jiang Sen, looked for something to defend himself. In the end, he only took out a fire poker.

After coming out, he stood next to Zhang Jianjun with Jiang Sen.

Ma Weiguo also came over and picked up a stone, holding it in his hand.

They had no idea what they were going to do with those things; they just saw me come out with an axe and followed me out.

Seeing that there were still four people thirty meters away, Zhang Jianjun was extremely anxious and kept shouting, "Run!"

Jiang Sen kept searching into the woods, left, right, behind... left!

He saw two small green lanterns appear in the woods to his left; they were the eyes of wolves.

If Bai Qiang and the three female educated youths didn't hurry up and run over, the wolf would rush out and intercept them.

"Captain!" Jiang Sen shouted, "Ten o'clock!"

Zhang Jianjun immediately turned his head to the left, grabbed his hunting rifle in an instant, and shouted, "Go in!"

Jiang Sen waved to Ma Weiguo and Wang Dajiang, "You two go in!"

Wang Dajiang hesitated, while Ma Weiguo panicked. Seeing that Jiang Sen hadn't moved, and then seeing that Wang Dajiang hadn't moved either, he didn't want to make a move either.

However, a wolf slowly emerged from the forest, its eyes glowing green, and it was panting heavily.

It stood at the edge of the woods, looking at Zhang Jianguo and the others, then turned its head to look at Bai Qiang and the three female educated youths who dared not step forward.

Lu Xiu looked at the wolf in horror, clutching Sun Guohong and Shao Jiajia tightly.

Jiang Sen knew something was wrong just by looking at her, and couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Don't scream, don't scream, whatever you do, don't scream!"

"Ah... a wolf! It's a wolf! Help!"

The moment Lu Xiu shouted, the wolf turned and pounced on them.

With a loud "Bang!", Zhang Jianjun fired his gun.

The bullet hit the wolf's hind leg, causing it to limp and halting its lunge.

"Run!" Jiang Sen roared, grabbing his axe and charging forward.

It wasn't that he risked his life to save people, but that if the wolf wasn't killed, no one would survive!

Fortunately, there's only one wolf; we absolutely cannot let it go.

Wolves are wild beasts that hold grudges and seek revenge.

If you injure it and then let it escape, then you've hit the jackpot.

It will chase you relentlessly!

Zhang Jianjun pulled back the bolt, raised his rifle, and fired another shot at the wolf that was limping toward Bai Qiang and his group.

Surprisingly, the wounded wolf was still so alert.

At the same time the gun fired, he actually jumped to the side.

Upon landing, his body tilted to the side again, his eyes fixed on the four people not far away, and his mouth agape.

"Ah..." Lu Xiu screamed again, retreating backward, but pushing Shao Jiajia and Sun Guohong in front of her forward.

Shao Jiajia and Sun Guohong were terrified. Sun Guohong fell to the ground after being pushed, while Shao Jiajia was pushed forward a few steps.

"Ah..." Shao Jiajia screamed in terror. Right in front of her was the wolf with its gaping, blood-red mouth.

Judging from the scene, it looks like someone is willingly offering themselves up to the wolves.

In the blink of an eye, everything happened in a mere instant.

Just as the wolf crouched back, about to pounce and bite Shao Jiajia who had willingly offered herself up,

Jiang Sen arrived, swung his axe, and chopped down.

"Ah!" he roared, putting all his strength into that axe blow.

The axe struck the wolf's belly. Just as the wolf was about to jump up, the combined effect split its belly open, scattering its intestines all over the ground.

Shao Jiajia finally fell to the ground, her head less than 20 centimeters from the wolf's head.

The wolf's large mouth was still opening and closing, as if trying to bite her.

Shao Jiajia was so frightened that she scrambled backward, but Jiang Sen grabbed her and said, "She's dead!"

Shao Jiajia looked at him, closed her eyes, and fainted.

Jiang Sen: "..."

Zhang Jianjun came over, patted Jiang Sen on the shoulder, and said, "Well done!"

Looking at the wolf that had already been gutted, Zhang Jianjun waved his hand: "Come and help!"

Wang Dajiang and Bai Qiang came over shivering, then pulled Sun Guohong and Lu Xiu away.

Ma Weiguo had been standing there without moving. Only then did he slowly come to his senses, look down, and see a puddle of water at his feet.
