The relentless downpour showed no signs of stopping; everyone slowed their pace, struggling to move forward. Facing such a harsh storm, everyone found it incredibly difficult to proceed. Fortunately, there were no enemy aircraft pursuing them, which significantly lifted everyone's spirits. From time to time, they would crack jokes to ease the tension.
Three hours later, as the light of day dimmed further, the storm lessened slightly. However, no one dared to stop for a rest. They continued on while eating dry rations, grimly determined to keep moving. If they were ordinary soldiers, their bodies would not have withstood such intense marching. A history of life-and-death experiences and extreme training had forged their resilient characters and superior physiques. Despite the storm, they persevered without succumbing.
