1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 623 Rescuing People from Thunder
Ma Wuliang heard the deputy battalion commander's order and replied, "Yes, sir."

After saying that, he waved to a group of people, and the group quickly headed to the left front.

Fu Yancheng led the remaining group of men to the right front.

Just as they were about to close in and encircle the enemy, an accident occurred: one of the soldiers stepped on a landmine.

When Fu Yancheng noticed, the young soldier's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat: "Deputy Battalion Commander, don't worry about me."

Fu Yancheng, fearing his legs would give way, sternly rebuked him: "Shut up."

The young soldier calmed down after being yelled at like that.

Fu Yancheng arranged for his subordinate, Company Commander Qiu, to lead his men to carry out the mission first, leaving only one soldier to assist him.

The order was given, but the entire team remained motionless. Fu Yancheng knew their concerns, but this was not the time to act on emotion: "Execute the order."

A soldier's duty is to obey orders, so Company Commander Qiu had no choice but to grit his teeth and carry them out.

After he and his men had gone some distance, Fu Yancheng said to the soldier who remained, "Go find a suitable tree branch and stones of various sizes."

Upon hearing the order, the soldier replied, "Yes, sir."

After Fu Yancheng and the other soldiers left, he knelt on the ground to confirm that it was a paved landmine. He took out his military dagger from his boot and carefully dug away the soil around it. Only after confirming that there was no booby trap under the landmine did he breathe a sigh of relief.

To put the soldier at ease, he chatted casually with the soldier who had stepped on the landmine while dealing with the situation, trying to distract him: "Jiang Changlin, I heard your family found you a wife?"

Upon hearing the deputy battalion commander's question, and recalling the letter that had arrived from home a few days ago, a smile flashed across Jiang Changlin's lips: "Yes, my mother said she's just waiting for me to take leave and go back to hold the wedding banquet."

"You and that girl haven't even met yet, how can you be so sure about this? What if you two don't hit it off?"

“That’s impossible. Although we’re not from the same village, the two villages are separated by a river. I used to go with my dad to the next village to make furniture, so I know that girl.” At this moment, another soldier also completed his task: “Deputy Battalion Commander, what’s the plan?”

Fu Yancheng replaced the military dagger in his hand with half a thick wooden stick, and glanced at the stone not far away: "Go away a bit, I'll call you if anything happens."

The young soldier refused, saying, "Deputy Battalion Commander, tell me what to do, and I'll help you."

Fu Yancheng didn't have time for further small talk: "Execute the order."

This is a crucial moment, and he cannot afford to be distracted.

Upon hearing his deputy battalion commander's words, the soldier knew that now was not the time to show off, and quickly retreated.

Fu Yancheng put down the dagger in his hand, took the wooden stick, dug a hole in front of his feet, glanced at the dagger beside him, and said to his teammates in the distance, "Cheng Xiaoliang, bring me the military dagger you have on you."

After obtaining the bayonet: "Retreat to a safe place."

Cheng Xiaoliang carried out the order swiftly, knowing that he couldn't afford to distract the deputy battalion commander.

At this moment, Fu Yancheng's forehead was covered in sweat. Before starting, he wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve, and then concentrated on inserting the two military daggers into the landmines one by one, pressing down on the two military daggers with all his strength: "Cheng Xiaoliang, come and help him untie his shoelaces."

Cheng Xiaoliang was prepared. Upon hearing the order, he quickly and calmly squatted down and untied his comrade's shoelaces, and thoughtfully loosened the shoelaces so that his comrade could easily take off his shoes.

Fu Yancheng was very satisfied with his actions: "Jiang Changlin, when I say start, you should immediately withdraw your foot to a safe area. Cheng Xiaoliang, you are responsible for pressing that big rock down and then quickly evacuating."

They both said in unison, "Yes."
