Chapter 1761 Blood Tempered Soldier’s Soul
“That’s right, which is why I didn’t hide the truth. At the same time, I have to tell you this, our training is a military secret, and you cannot choose to drop out.” This is the military, the military that had to give up the ‘small picture’ for the ‘bigger picture.’
For the peace of their nation, the sacrifice a soldier must make isn’t something the commoners can imagine.
Their wives and children getting into an accident, these soldiers who are defending their country cannot appear in time to protect their family members.
Their parents passed away, as long as they are on a mission, they cannot fulfill both loyalty and filiality; they can only choose ‘loyalty.’
Hearing that their dearest family was in critical condition, Ye Jian, who was a soldier, cannot just toss her training aside, toss her mission aside and make her way over there, let alone contacting the outside world.
This was the military, a place with discipline forged from steel. In this unit, they must abandon the lesser for the greater good; besides standing under the cold moonlight and thinking of her dearest family’s safety, there was nothing else Ye Jian could do.
Li Jinnian flipped open the entire training schedule, listening to Ye Jian, who appeared calm. Yet, her voice sounded like she was weeping blood, with the corner of his lips pressed tightly together, he swept a cold look at the schedule, he raised his eyes and looked at Ye Jian, “After ending our desert training, we’ll head towards the highlands. There are 29 hours in between them that are considered maneuver time; if you can arrive at the highlands within 29 hours, Blue Bird, then I would agree to allow you 29 hours of free time within this duration.
After that, there would still be eight days’ time before the ending of their desert training!
Ye Jian, who had spent some time in medical school in her past life, was very clear, if they managed to save him this time, then she could go back and visit Uncle Chen after the training is over, if they failed, then when she returned eight days later…, Suppressing the trembling feeling within her, she stared at Li Jinnian with a steady look, though her voice was light, each word weighed a ton: “No, no need.”
When Uncle Chen fell into surgery because of his gastrointestinal bleeding, he didn’t forget to implore Regimental Commander Liu and Political Commissar Yan to keep it a secret from her; from that, Uncle Chen’s stance was obvious, he doesn’t want her to break the rules of the military.
Her two dearest family that taught her and brought her up had told her once she embarked on her military career that the discipline of the army in order and can never be violated!
No matter if it was during an arduous time of war or today’s wondrous time of peace, the military always tightly regulated their discipline, “Military orders weighed mountains, Military discipline aren’t jokes,” that was what Uncle Chen said on the first day of training her.
If she rushed back now, what greeted her would definitely be Uncle Chen’s face full of disappointment.
And she didn’t want her dearest family to be disappointed.
Li Jinnian didn’t insist because he noticed that because of her words, Xia Jinyuan’s sharp, eagle-like eyes flashed with a gratified look.
He truly understood Ye Jian, with such a thought appearing in his mind, Li Jinnian nodded his head shallowly, “Good, then we’ll stop our lesson here, rest up.”
“Thank you for your hard word tonight.” Ye Jian thanked him genuinely, even though she had just received ill news, she still maintained the infallible side of a soldier, causing Li Jinnian who had seen everything to cheer for her.
The less than twenty-year-old girl actually managed to keep herself in check after hearing the news that her dearest family was at death’s door; if it wasn’t because he had heard the words that seemed to be weeping blood under her calm expression, he would have mistaken her for a heartless female soldier.
She wasn’t. However, she knew her place.
It was too cruel for someone less than twenty years old like her, but she held onto the soldier’s spirit that each soldier should have.
Xia Jinyuan had already pulled his little fox into his tight embrace with both arms; his steel arms pulled in so that she could completely snuggle into his embrace so that she could have something to lean on and have a sense of peace.
