Starting from the deputy company commander of the Soldier Assault Team

Listen to what those brides have to say. Although they confessed their love at different times, at least they were proactive.

They were both the ones who confessed their feelings first, which makes me so angry. No wonder they became such good friends.

As six armored vehicles came to a steady stop in front of the guesthouse, six grooms dressed in smart casual clothes got out of the vehicles briskly and strode toward the guesthouse entrance.

As Zhang Anbang and Gao Cheng, along with six other grooms, stepped onto the corridor of the guesthouse, soldiers who had come to watch the spectacle immediately lined up on both sides, laughing and blocking their path, clapping and cheering.

A third-term sergeant from the training unit led the way, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Groom, groom, stop for a moment! Express your feelings before you go on!"

The surrounding soldiers also joined in, clapping their hands to keep the beat.

Zhang Anbang and Gao Cheng, along with several other grooms, stopped and, accompanied by the lieutenants who were temporarily acting as the train commanders, smiled, raised their hands in a gesture of respect, and called out, "We're so anxious! Let us see our brides!"

Led by a third-term sergeant, the soldiers blocking the way immediately returned, shouting, "Want to see your wife? It's not hard! Just sing a song and you'll pass! If your song isn't loud enough, you won't see your bride!"

Zhang Anbang and Gao Cheng could only turn to the captain and the other three grooms to discuss what song to sing.

Before we could even finalize the agreement, the other side started urging us, "One, two, three, four, five, we've been waiting so long."

Zhang Anbang was speechless. In the past, he was the one who took the lead in urging the Sixth Company, but now he was the one being urged.

The group quickly discussed what would be appropriate to sing; they couldn't very well sing about unity.

"Unity won't work, so how about singing about wives, specifically praising the sacrifices of military wives?"

"Um, I can't sing it. I didn't even memorize the lyrics."

"Me too."

Gao Cheng frowned. "Well, how about I just say what's on my mind? I know all of this, so it's very suitable for me."

"Okay, okay, this one is fine."

Before the soldiers who were stopping them could urge them again, the singing began.

Apart from Zhang Anbang, who sang quite well, the other five people sang in a completely military style, shouting loudly.

To be honest, I miss home too.

My elderly mother at home has a full head of white hair.

To be honest, I also have love.

I often think of her in my dreams, she in my dreams

Come on, come on, since you've come to join the army...

Come on, you'll understand how great the responsibility is.

If you don't carry a gun, I won't carry a gun.

Who will protect our mother? Who will protect her?

……

To be honest, I'm not stupid.

I understand the hardships and challenges of military service.

……

As the song ended, the group shouted in unison, "Was the singing bright enough to welcome the bride?"

The soldiers blocking the way responded loudly in return, "Sing so brightly, hurry to see the bride!"

As they spoke, everyone cleared the way up the stairs to the second floor. That's how group weddings are; it can be lively, but there are limits, and a little obstruction is all that's needed.

Upon hearing this, Gao Cheng and Zhang Anbang, along with five others, immediately strode upstairs.

On the second floor, the staff and nurses who helped with the makeup did not stop them. As the six grooms came up, Shi Ranran, in particular, shouted at the top of her lungs, "Wow, the grooms have made quite a show of themselves. This is the first time I've ever seen anything like it."

"Hurry up and grab your bride and get out of here. With you setting up a heavy machine gun, we can't stop you. The walls of the guesthouse can't withstand your 12.7mm bullets."

"Hehe," the grooms chuckled as they listened to Shi Ranran's teasing words, but they didn't slow down. They ran to their wives, picked them up, and carried them away.

This is when it becomes clear who has the best physical fitness and whose wife has the best figure. Zhang Anbang has the best physical fitness and his wife has a good figure. He carried his wife in a princess carry and ran downstairs.

Next was Gao Cheng, and a few third-term sergeants. Section Chief Ding of the Equipment Section was stationed at the headquarters year-round, and his wife had become a bit plumper, so he had to be last.

While the six grooms went upstairs to pick up their brides, the group of fourth-term sergeants who served as drivers had already turned the armored vehicle around.

The lieutenants who were acting as temporary tank commanders had all returned to the vehicle early and were now standing in the machine gun turret inside.

As soon as Zhang Anbang carried Gu Xiaonan out of the guesthouse, he saw the armored vehicle with its rear hatch wide open. Holding his wife, he huddled up and rushed inside.

The moment he braced his wife with his thigh, he casually slid his right hand over and brought the rear cabin door shut.

With a bang, the door had just closed when Gu Xiaonan's voice rang out, "Comrade Xiao Zhang, I have a question for you. Did you just treat me like your backpack, lifting your leg to block me and slamming the door shut?"

Zhang Anbang, who was feeling proud that his skills hadn't declined at all, immediately chuckled awkwardly upon hearing this, as if he had indeed been using his wife as a 50-kilogram backpack.

He raised his hand and scratched the back of his head. "Hey honey, this armored vehicle looks impressive from the outside, but the space inside is actually quite small. Be careful not to bump into it."

"Honey, please sit down for a moment. I'll open the occupant hatches on both sides, and we can just stand there, one on each side."

One on the left and one on the right? Gu Xiaonan, who had been smiling, was speechless when she heard this. "Comrade Xiao Zhang, do you remember what we were doing today?"

"What are you doing, honey? You're not joking, are you? Of course I remember, we got married, we had a wedding," Zhang Anbang replied subconsciously.

Gu Xiaonan nodded and tapped Zhang Anbang's head. "So, what do you think? If we stand on the left and right, are we going to war or an exercise? Should we each be given a gun?"

Give me an August 1st machine gun, and you a Type 67-2 general-purpose machine gun, plus the high-powered machine gun for the commander. Then we'll become a fire support vehicle.

While it may not be able to storm fortified positions or seize key locations, it is more than sufficient for key road checkpoints, positional security, long-range blockades, flank fire support, long-range vehicle patrols, driving away infiltrating reconnaissance troops, and anti-infantry ambush positions.

puff!

Before Zhang Anbang could speak, the lieutenant who was temporarily acting as the commander of the vehicle couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Well, Deputy Section Chief Zhang, I just suddenly thought of something funny."

Hearing this half-hearted explanation, Zhang Anbang felt that he might as well not explain at all. "Zuo Chenyi, right? I remember you, platoon leader of the second platoon of the 9th Company of the 702nd Regiment. I know your company commander, Lu Sanyi."

He's only been there about six months ago. Yeah, when I go back to 702, I'll definitely visit your company commander and your platoon too.

"Um, Deputy Section Chief Zhang, well, you're so busy, is it really necessary?" At this moment, Zuo Chenyi felt his legs go weak. Why did he have to be the temporary driver on his bus on such a nice day?

Not only that, he also wanted to slap himself, after all, the company commander had taught him that he should never laugh unless he couldn't help it. Well, it was indeed quite funny just now, and he couldn't help it.
