Chapter 235: The Sun Rises in the East
"you you……"

The fashionable young woman was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground, and perhaps due to the effects of alcohol, she urinated all over the place.

She stared in horror at the unassuming man who had single-handedly subdued the entire bar.

The person who was just thrown off the second floor was her second brother.

Feng Yuxiu slowly squatted down and said softly, "Why do you have to find me? That duck looks much more refined than me. Are you planning to try something different?"

The girl dared not speak, her head bowed as if she wanted to bury her whole body under the table, trembling uncontrollably.

Feng Yuxiu pulled the girl out, and seeing the fear trembling in her body, he slapped her across the face.

He was kicked to the ground and knocked unconscious.

Gan Xiaoning and Ma Xiaoshuai came up from the messy bar and were immediately stunned.

The ground was covered with burly men clutching their chests, groaning and writhing.

“Sanduo…” Gan Xiaoning swallowed.

Feng Yuxiu paused for a moment when he saw an acquaintance, then laughed out loud, "It's nothing, I just dealt with a dispute. These people are used to being arrogant."

Ma Xiaoshuai immediately felt uneasy, as Feng Yuxiu had always had a stern face before.

But now, a smile appeared on his face.

Didn't you say your girlfriend sacrificed herself? Shouldn't you be upset?

Before long, the police arrived, bringing eight vehicles.

Feng Yuxiu stood quietly on the street, gazing into the distance.

After Gan Xiaoning and Ma Xiaoshuai explained the situation to the police, they pulled Feng Yuxiu away and turned to leave.

Feng Yuxiu laughed. If he were an ordinary citizen, would things still be so simple?

Anyone who retires from the military can adapt to being a normal civilian, at most opening a veterans' barbecue or a veterans' bar.

However, once Feng Yuxiu's personality returned to normal, he was unlikely to settle down and live a peaceful life as an ordinary citizen.

-

"Sanduo, let's go back to our hometown. The battalion commander is waiting for you," Gan Xiaoning called out with a smile.

Feng Yuxiu calmly gazed at Central Avenue. "I'm going to watch the flag-raising ceremony."

The two exchanged a glance, both somewhat puzzled.

Why are you suddenly so patriotic at this time?

The three walked to Tiananmen Square, where the flag-raising ceremony began at dawn.

So the three of them stood in the square and waited.

Patrol officers come by from time to time to check identification.

"You two... are fine, but this one won't."

Ma Xiaoshuai and Gan Xiaoning's military uniforms were appropriate for standing here, but Feng Yuxiu's civilian clothes seemed to them a bit of a disgrace to this sacred place.

Feng Yuxiu, without changing his expression, took out his ID and handed it over.

The patrolling soldier glanced at it and frowned. "What kind of unit is this?"

"You can check it out and ask your superiors," Feng Yuxiu suggested.

The patrolling soldier gave Feng Yuxiu a deep look, then went to his post and picked up the phone to report the number on Feng Yuxiu's identification.

A short while later, his expression changed slightly. He put down the phone, ran over, handed the documents to Feng Yuxiu, and didn't ask any more questions.

Gan Xiaoning and Ma Xiaoshuai exchanged a glance, both sensing each other's curiosity.

It seems that Old A is more mysterious than they imagined.

Morning finally arrived, amidst silence and the sound of the northern wind.

The three saw the flag bearers cross the Jinshui Bridge.

The people watching the flag-raising ceremony stood in a row, all with solemn and respectful expressions.

The red five-pointed star flag was slowly raised.

Then, spontaneous singing began to rise from all around.

Arise! Ye who refuse to be slaves!

Let our flesh and blood build our new Great Wall!

The Chinese nation has reached its most perilous moment.
Everyone was forced to let out a final roar.

Arise! Arise! Arise!

We are united as one.
Braving enemy fire, advance!

Braving enemy fire, advance!

go ahead!

Forward! Advance!

In front of everyone, Feng Yuxiu took off his civilian clothes and put on the military uniform he was carrying.

Standing ramrod straight, they sang loudly, and Gan Xiaoning and Ma Xiaoshuai quickly joined in.

As the national flag reached its zenith, the sun, rising from the east, bathed the earth in its light.

The portrait in the center of the city gate was illuminated, making it appear even more benevolent.

It seems that he has always been watching over this land of China.

He was looking for a reason to join the army.

-

— The car finally left the capital.

However, Feng Yuxiu's hatred continued to fester, and the scorpion's face was etched deep into his soul.

The car left the concrete surface and entered the provincial highway where sand and dust filled the air.

Baigouzi.

The 702nd Regiment was stationed in a very desolate place.

The gate of the mechanized infantry regiment has never changed; it's still the same, except that the sentries at the gate are now unfamiliar faces.

Feng Yuxiu turned around and looked at Gan Xiaoning.

Gan Xiaoning gave an awkward smile, "It was the battalion commander who told us to bring you here to take a look."

Following the long driveway of the regiment headquarters, Feng Yuxiu saw that the surroundings were still clean and spotless.

The air here seems to be free of dust.

A squad of soldiers was clearing away the surrounding vegetation, while the engines of infantry fighting vehicles roared in the vehicle yard.

Several companies of soldiers had just returned from training outside, and the smell of diesel fuel emanating from the surroundings made Feng Yuxiu slowly close his eyes.

He guarded the Seventh Steel Company for two and a half years. This period was lonely and difficult, but it was also the time when he felt most at ease.

A person who has lost their emotions seems to have nothing to care about.

He lost more than just the other half of his personality; it was the hidden Weng Haisheng.

At the same time, I received indifference, absolute indifference.

He was searching for everything, and now he was also filled with confusion.

This is the lesion.

He knew he was sick, and very sick.

"Instructor!!!"

Gan Xiaoning suddenly shouted excitedly.

Feng Yuxiu looked in the direction of the sound and saw Hong Xingguo angrily cursing at the new recruits in the distance.

Hearing the sound, he turned around in surprise, then waved and ran over.

"Gan Xiaoning! Ma Xiaoshuai... Xu Sanduo, you're still the same as ever. Alright, you three rascals, back for some nostalgia, huh?"

Gan Xiaoning and Ma Xiaoshuai chuckled.

Hong Xingguo glanced at Feng Yuxiu and said, "You little brat, your captain told me and that wasn't enough. You actually have a sad mood. You're a ruthless guy who would rather lose an arm than suffer a loss."

Hong Xingguo was somewhat excited, smiling as he looked at the three old acquaintances in front of him. "Did you know? Your Steel Seventh Company has been reorganized. It's now the new Steel Seventh Company, still in the same place."

Gan Xiaoning was stunned for a moment, "How come I didn't know? Now that you mention it, I remember... No wonder our battalion commander was so sullen for several days a few days ago."

Hong Xingguo laughed and said, "Seventh Brother is thinking about this. He has trained a company of top soldiers. The new company commander of Steel Seventh Company is under pressure."

Then, Hong Xingguo turned to look at Feng Yuxiu, his expression turning serious. "I heard you're retiring from the army?"

Gan Xiaoning and Ma Xiaoshuai exchanged a glance. "Well, instructor, we'll go ahead first. I'm going to check on the new Steel Seventh Company."

Without waiting for a reply, the two took off running.

Feng Yuxiu did not give a direct answer to the instructor's question.

"I've heard the general outline of what happened to you, but due to some confidentiality regulations, I only know the gist of it. I know you're never one to suffer a loss, and you're not exactly a rule-abiding person either."

“Before us, around the time you got into a fight with the Sixth Company, I talked to Lao Qi about it. If Xu Sanduo stays in the army, he's a tiger, but if he becomes an ordinary citizen, he'll be a menace.”

"You can't give up on yourself just because you've suffered setbacks. Putting everything else aside, even if you're discharged and go abroad, the world is so big, can you find the enemy? This isn't a movie where one person charges out alone to face the entire army."

"Reality is cruel. If you stay in the military, you'll encounter it in the future, won't you?"

Feng Yuxiu remained silent; he didn't seem to hate anyone.

Instead, he hated himself for not following the rules for so long, and why he had to follow the rules at the border.

Why didn't they just shoot the leader? If they had shot him from the start, none of what happened afterward would have been possible.

He is punishing himself, or perhaps he is looking for a reason to punish himself.

"I won't talk about setbacks... Although I'm the instructor and I love doing political work, for you... practice is always more important than words."

"Xu Sanduo, you went to Tiananmen Square and saw the national flag. This is what we protect, this is what we yearn for. Are you really willing to give up all of this? This is all I can say to you."

After saying that, Hong Xingguo turned around.

Gan Xiaoning and Ma Xiaoshuai didn't have the Seventh Company of Xin Steel. That place only held memories of the past, with no familiar faces. Going there would be pointless.

"You two take him away. I've completed my mission. Whether he listens or not is his problem."

Gan Xiaoning saluted solemnly, "Yes, Instructor!"

The two men ran over and pinned Feng Yuxiu down on either side.

"Comrade Xu Sanduo, let's go. Next stop."

"This is our mission, so please don't let us fail. Give us some face!"

Feng Yuxiu was about to rebel.

Ma Xiaoshuai said sternly, "Comrade Xu Sanduo, you should serve the people while wearing a military uniform."

“We are both people too, now please walk with the people.”

After saying that, he put Feng Yuxiu on a military vehicle and drove off in the direction of the 702nd Regiment.

They are saving this soldier, this king of soldiers who was born to be in the army.
