A generation of soldiers begins with Feng Yuxiu traveling through time and space with Xu Sanduo

Chapter 261 Returning to the Reconnaissance Battalion, Shi Jin's Welcome

"Xu Sanduo, what are you looking at?"

As Wu Zhe left the tavern, he noticed something strange: Feng Yuxiu was looking around very warily.

"I had a feeling that something was off about that person just now; he gave me a strange feeling of familiarity..."

Wu Zhe was taken aback. "When you're in a foreign country, it's natural to feel a sense of familiarity when you meet someone from your hometown. Don't be so suspicious."

"maybe."

The two went to the hospital to visit Cheng Cai.

Cheng Cai's injuries are much better. He fell off the cliff and didn't suffer any major internal organ damage.

After just one day of rest, and with no fatal injuries found, he was ready to be discharged.

-

The next day, after bidding farewell to Tuoyang and the others for their kindness.

Yuan Lang and his three companions boarded a plane bound for the airport.

boom!
Suddenly, an explosion rang out from behind.

The four of them suddenly turned around.

"Never mind that, it's their country's business," Yuan Lang snapped.

In other countries, they have no legal permits to carry out their missions.

If you see it, just pretend you didn't see it and ignore it.

After boarding the plane, they looked at Estonia, which was now far away, with a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret or nostalgia).

"What just happened?"

"A soldier from Estonia asked curiously."

Another shook his head. "Local armed groups have broken out. It seems a gang leader was shot dead."

"This place is always so messy, who did this?"

"Hai, international mercenaries, who else?"

"Where did these mercenaries come from that dare to be so bold? Didn't a bunch of them get killed last time?"

"It seems to be from South America... that infamous... what's his name again... Scorpion. Our troops went there, and I guess he escaped just like last time. That villain is like an unkillable cockroach."

Dead!

A murderous rage emanated from him as he looked at them.

Yuan Lang and Wu Zhe's expressions changed drastically.

Scorpion!

This very title that made Feng Yuxiu so tyrannical on the border was actually found among their own people.

"Xu Sanduo, what are you thinking? Be quiet!" Yuan Lang stood up instantly and stood next to Feng Yuxiu, staring at him.

Feng Yuxiu stared intently in the direction of Estonia, like a statue.

Scorpion!

He already had a child!

That adorable daughter, the little boy who calls him Dad.

Because the scorpion died before it could see the world.

Scorpion!!
Cheng Cai also heard about Feng Yuxiu's matter. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end he sighed helplessly.

"We will meet him; we will meet him sooner or later."

Wu Zhe quickly offered words of comfort.

Feng Yuxiu slowly closed his eyes.

“Wang Yadong, he’s also with Scorpion, that mercenary from Hunan.” These words were forced out from between Feng Yuxiu’s teeth.

"Scorpion!"

-

-

The three of them remained silent throughout the journey, fearing that Feng Yuxiu might lose his temper.

The plane landed at the Capital Airport. After disembarking, Old A's military vehicle was waiting for them.

Yuan Lang turned to stare at Feng Yuxiu, "Xu Sanduo, come back with us!"

"You're a soldier!"

Feng Yuxiu didn't say anything and silently got into the car.

The car sped all the way from the city to the old A military region.

As soon as they arrived at the gate, they saw Qi Huan and Wu Liuyi waiting excitedly.

"Captain, did we win?" Qi Huan leaned forward and looked at him expectantly.

Looking at the densely packed A-team members standing behind him, Yuan Lang exclaimed, "We won!"

Look at the medals in the hands of Yuan Lang and the other three.

The frenzied shouts echoed throughout the camp.

Cheng Cai and Wu Zhe happily raised their medals.

Only Feng Yuxiu stood quietly behind the crowd, lost in thought.

-

Old A's reward prompted the military region to issue an official document.

A week later, several orders came down.

Officers promoted to the rank of second lieutenant through a revised process.

Yuan Lang was promoted to colonel and battalion commander.

Wu Zhe was promoted to lieutenant colonel.

Cheng Cai was promoted to the rank of second lieutenant and was given the opportunity to attend military academy.

The mistake made by Team A at the border has also been undone.

The Central Theater Command rarely wins first place in international competitions.

This kind of political propaganda is something that political commissars and staff members all like to see.

A week later, Feng Yuxiu knocked on Yuan Lang's door.

-

"I don't know, I really don't know, this is not something I can inquire about."

Yuan Lang extinguished his cigarette and looked at Feng Yuxiu in a deep voice.

"Didn't Li Xuanxuan go to the army?" Feng Yuxiu asked.

"I told you, this isn't something I should be asking about. If you're meant to be, you'll meet again. I believe that lovers are always in sync, no matter where they are. Xu Sanduo, do you know what you look like right now?"

"From top to bottom, it all boils down to two words—hatred."

"Did the appearance of the scorpion throw you into a panic?"

Feng Yuxiu didn't speak, but stared intently at the setting sun outside the window.

Feeling a lump in his throat, Yuan Lang lit a cigarette. "The sunset in the mountains always brings back memories. I underestimated you. There's nothing that can heal you."

"Yes, I'm going to kill him. There is no one in this world who can heal my hatred or quell my hatred."

Feng Yuxiu's eyes turned bloodshot.

Yuan Lang sighed, "Do you want to know about scorpions? We in the Central Theater Command can't get our hands on them, but... the Eastern Theater Command can."

"They often fight against international mercenaries and carry out counter-terrorism operations both domestically and internationally."

Feng Yuxiu suddenly raised his head and stared at Yuan Lang.

"Do you know Fan Tianlei? You've met him. They're going to form a special forces team just like the Old A. Besides, Scorpion assassinated Fan Tianlei's captain more than ten years ago."

"He's their mortal enemy, and it just so happens that the Wolf Fang Special Forces sniper team needs an experienced instructor. Go ahead."

Yuan Lang realized that forcibly keeping Feng Yuxiu here would inevitably lead to big problems sooner or later.

If he goes to the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade and kills Scorpion, at least he can put an end to that knot in his heart.

Since it's a temporary transfer, Qi Huan definitely can't go.

Wu Zhe is a special talent, and that's something we can't give him.

If he succeeds, he will groom him as a candidate for vice-captain.

Now, the only experienced member of the Old A team is Feng Yuxiu.

His temperament destined him to be unfit to be a commanding officer, but only a king of soldiers, a sharp knife that could plunge directly into the heart of the enemy.

That's his greatest use.

Feng Yuxiu's hatred is no longer suitable for continuing his missions; he could be a better fit as an instructor or captain of another special forces unit.

"I obey orders," Feng Yuxiu said, turning and leaving.

Before long, Qi Huan knocked on the door and entered.

"Captain, are we really going to let him go?"

"Do you know, Qi Huan, this isn't my idea. It's Li Xuanxuan's father's idea. You think this temporary transfer from another military region is so simple?" Qi Huan's eyes widened. "You mean it's for training?"

"He'll be back sooner or later, and then he'll be more than just a lieutenant."

-

-

The dinner party will begin in three days.

Firstly, it was to celebrate the victory of Team A, and secondly, it was to bid farewell to Feng Yuxiu.

Feng Yuxiu did not participate. He stood alone in the mountains of the military camp and ran, as if only in this way could he vent his lingering anger.

Wu Zhe, Cheng Cai, and Wu Liuyi heard about this.

The three of them no longer felt the joy they had before. Instead, they sat silently in their chairs, staring at their noisy comrades.

Admittedly, Feng Yuxiu has a sharp temper. He never tells anyone what's on his mind, just like a fortified wall made of steel.

It kept all the wind and rain out.

But when you're on a mission with him, there's a sense of security that no one else can provide.

"Should we see him off?" Wu Zhe suggested.

Wu Liuyi raised his head. "No need. He's just on temporary assignment. He'll be back sooner or later. I don't know why the captain wants him to leave."

“Perhaps… the honor that Old A brought him has come to an end, or perhaps it’s his personality… he’s not suited for peacetime. If it were wartime, he would be the second Zhang Taofang,” Cheng Cai said.

"When are you leaving?" Wu Zhe asked.

"Qi Huan said that tomorrow, San Duo said he was going to say goodbye to his comrades-in-arms. I think he will go to see the company commander and Squad Leader Shi Jin."

“Actually, those in the reconnaissance battalion were his true comrades-in-arms. Perhaps, if he could value them highly, those comrades in the reconnaissance battalion were his last remaining bond.” Cheng Cai felt that Feng Yuxiu was the same kind of person as him.

-

-

Yuan Lang eventually found Feng Yuxiu.

The two stood on the golden hillside bathed in the setting sun, gazing at the distant mountains.

“I told you before that the sunset in the mountains always reminds people of the past. Your personality is too flamboyant, which is both a good thing and a bad thing. You always act on your emotions.”

Feng Yuxiu stared at Yuan Lang, "I've already been very restrained."

"Yes, I believe that. Qi Huan once told me that if you weren't in the military, but were placed in society, you would be a major villain."

Feng Yuxiu didn't say anything.

Yuan Lang looked at Feng Yuxiu, "Are you going to see your other comrades?"

"My comrades are in the reconnaissance battalion."

"Aren't they the same? Qi Huan, Wu Zhe, Wu Liuyi, Cheng Cai?"

"I'll be back, won't I, Captain?" Feng Yuxiu suddenly looked up and asked.

Yuan Lang nodded. "I understand. I won't see you off. I don't know how long this secondment will last, maybe a year, maybe two. I'll wait for you to come back."

The next day, Feng Yuxiu left alone; he didn't have anyone see him off.

Cheng Cai got up very early, his eyes fixed on Feng Yuxiu's back.

An opportunity has arrived. This formidable man has been temporarily transferred. His chance has come. To put it bluntly, he is a prospective officer, but his merits are not yet sufficient.

When Feng Yuxiu returns, he can be promoted to a proper military officer.

A few days ago, when I called home, his father was so happy that he hosted a big banquet for the whole village.

His son finally learned to see things clearly, and even that nouveau riche old scoundrel Xu was now treating him with respect.

However, I heard that Old Man Xu's business isn't as big anymore. He ended his contract with that boss and went to work in the construction industry.

Cheng Cai sneered for a long time, "Who will live in the houses we build? Farmers will definitely be the ones who are in demand in the future. It's the right thing to do to contract more land and farm."

He specifically told his father that if he earned some money, he could contract land to build greenhouses and make a lot of money in the future.

Just as he told Yuan Lang, he was going on temporary assignment, not being discharged from the army.

At most, it's just a relatively long mission.

However, he moved from the Central Theater Command to the Eastern Theater Command.

Before that, he was going to meet his comrades from the Seventh Steel Company.

Over the course of more than a year, Gao Cheng would occasionally write to him to inquire about his situation.

I often scold him and tell him to buy a PHS phone or a mobile phone, at least it would be more convenient.

But Feng Yuxiu also said that he is not a person who likes to chat with others, and letters are fine.

This is a lingering effect from his past life, caused by being frequently monitored by the Flying Tigers.

The car departed from the capital and arrived at the Hebei Military Region.

Old A is very close to the 702nd Regiment; it's just a short drive away.

Yuan Lang had given Gao Cheng a heads-up beforehand.

So as soon as they got off the car, they saw Gan Xiaoning and Bai Tiejun running wildly.

Three police officers were chasing after him.

Feng Yuxiu was puzzled. He looked back and thought, "This is a train station. Where did the police come from?"

Bai Tiejun ran incredibly fast. He turned around and saw Feng Yuxiu. Without pausing, he said, "Sanduo, you go back first. We'll run back together."

Gan Xiaoning darted over, "Sanduo, go back, the deputy battalion commander is waiting for you. Three squad leaders, don't chase after us, it's just a matter of a button on your uniform, why make such a fuss?"

"Here are the car keys, remember to drive it back!"

He then tossed the keys over.

The two of them had only one belief: if they ran away, everything would be fine.

If they can't escape and get caught, it will implicate the reconnaissance battalion, and the two of them will be promoted by the deputy battalion commander.

At this point, you'd run for your life if your lungs were about to jump out of your throat.

Feng Yuxiu stood ramrod straight and quickly glanced at his entire body.

Yes, no problem, very standard.

The three police officers chased after them, glancing quickly at Feng Yuxiu before turning back to continue their pursuit of Gan Xiaoning and Bai Tiejun.

Feng Yuxiu recognized him, and the three military inspectors were alerted.

These two must have been caught by the military police for not paying attention to military appearance and discipline while waiting for me at the station.

If they were caught, the entire reconnaissance battalion would face the hardship of complete reorganization.

Feng Yuxiu could only pray for the two of them in secret.

-

"Where are Sanduo, Gan Xiaoning, and Bai Tiejun?"

Shi Jin waited specifically at the door.

Seeing Feng Yuxiu get out of the car, he asked in surprise.

Feng Yuxiu awkwardly touched the car door. "They were chased by the police. They're probably out of Hebei by now."

Shi Jin's expression changed, then he stared at Feng Yuxiu's shoulder insignia with surprise, "Good lad, as expected of the Old A, it hasn't been long and he has already gone from sergeant to second lieutenant."

"Let's go, let's go, the battalion commander doesn't know about this yet."

Shi Jin smiled broadly, pleased with Feng Yuxiu's promotion.

Feng Yuxiu, on the contrary, did not feel any significant emotional fluctuation.

"The deputy battalion commander is out training. He'll be back tonight and told me to treat you well. We'll have dinner at the camp's mess hall tonight."

Shi Jin smiled and pulled Feng Yuxiu into the reconnaissance camp.

Ma Xiaoshuai was already a qualified class monitor, and when he heard that Feng Yuxiu was coming, he rushed over.

"Squad leader!" Ma Xiaoshuai shouted excitedly as he pushed open the door.

Feng Yuxiu was listening to Shi Jin's introduction.

Hearing the soldier, who was a year younger than him, look up, he said, "Ma Xiaoshuai, you've grown a bit taller."

Ma Xiaoshuai chuckled and walked over to sit on the stool. "What are you saying? If you can eat and exercise, it's absurd if you don't grow taller. Class monitor, let me tell you, I've already caught up with you in abdominal bar exercises."

Feng Yuxiu smiled and said, "Then keep up the good work."

"Hey, this is boring. I have no rivals. Except for you, class monitor, I'm invincible."

Shi Jin said with a stern face, "Instead of going to training, you're just here joking around."

Ma Xiaoshuai waved his hands and said, "Platoon leader, what are you saying? I'm the squad leader. With the deputy squad leader watching over me, why should I worry about anything?"

Shi Jin turned around and asked, "How was June 1st?"

Feng Yuxiu nodded, "He's alright. He really likes Old A and feels that this is where the king of soldiers belongs. Now he's training his physical fitness like crazy every day."

Shi Jin sighed, "He always works so hard, but it's good that he can stay in the army. Actually, I really wanted him to stay in the reconnaissance battalion, just like the Steel Seventh Company. Now, looking at these familiar faces, I always feel that the Steel Seventh Company has not fallen apart."

The sunlight is shining in from outside the glass.

As Feng Yuxiu listened to Shi Jin's reminiscences, he suddenly realized that Yuan Lang's words were true.

The sunset in the mountains always evokes memories of the past, and people who cherish the past are often kind-hearted.
