In a chaotic world, border soldiers begin their journey by enlisting in the army and getting married

Inside Jingshan Camp.

Chen Shan led his brothers in daily drills, which were very regular. However, this seemingly peaceful military life would not last long.

"My lord, we have investigated the situation in Jingshan Camp quite thoroughly. Those who brought their families here are mostly squad leaders. However, some squad leaders went out and never came back. Their families have basically been taken over by others."

Inside the tent, Wang Xiaoya recounted the results of her inquiries over the past few days.

"That does fit the place quite well. I wonder when Zhao Desheng will come looking for trouble for my husband."

The women gradually adapted to life in the military camp. Despite the large number of men, few dared to make advances towards them.

Not to mention that there are rules in the army, unless Chen Shan doesn't come back, no one will touch them.

"My lord, the enemy country on the border is making trouble. I'm afraid it won't be long before war breaks out. Before that, the reconnaissance battalion will definitely be dispatched."

"You'd better be careful, Zhao Desheng might..."

Before Chu Yiren could finish speaking, Liu Sanshi's voice came from outside the tent.

"Boss, Zhao Desheng is here."

Liu Sanshi's words instantly made the four women tense.

Although a squad leader is not a very important official position, the more important a person is, the more likely they are to become a big shot despite their small position.

Within the Xia Kingdom, similar situations were countless.

"It really is true that what you wish for comes true."

"Let's go out and take a look."

Chen Shan knew it was inevitable; Zhao Desheng wouldn't dare to make a move inside the military camp and would definitely wait until he got out.

And now, the opportunity has arrived.

"Chen Shan, we've received orders from above. Someone needs to go to Chiling to gather intelligence on the enemy, and preferably bring back important information."

"You are very lucky; I, the corporal, personally recommended you."

As soon as Zhao Desheng arrived, he put on his arrogant and haughty attitude.

It was as if Chen Shan and his team had been given a great honor.

But everyone knows this guy is up to no good.

Seeing Zhao Desheng's smug expression, Chen Shan immediately asked, "Since we are under Squad Leader Zhao's command, it seems that Squad Leader Zhao is also with us on this mission?"

"After all, we're just new recruits, unfamiliar with the terrain of Chiling. If we delay orders from above, even Corporal Zhao should bear the responsibility, right?"

As soon as Chen Shan said those words, Zhao Desheng's face turned cold.

How could he not understand what Chen Shan meant?

They simply wanted me to go out with them so we could settle our personal scores.

But Zhao Desheng was a veteran of the military, and he was more familiar with the place. Even if he went to Chiling, he had already made arrangements.

"Hmph, that's for sure. Although I am just a lowly squad leader in my Xia Kingdom, I will still do my duty and serve my country with utmost loyalty."

"You all prepare yourselves; we can depart this afternoon."

Zhao Desheng left after saying those words, clearly not wanting to say another word to Chen Shan.

In his eyes, Chen Shan was doomed to die on this trip, and once he was dead, he could at least have one of his four beautiful wives.

The thought filled Zhao Desheng with uncontrollable excitement.

Chenshan Camp.

The four women, Liu Sanshi, Liu Tiehan, and others gathered together.

The small tent was now crammed with more than twenty people.

All eyes were on Chen Shan, who was clearly waiting for his instructions.

"My lord, this Red Ridge is the border between the Great Xia and the Qing Kingdom. The Qing Kingdom is located in the north and has always been an enemy of the Great Xia. Even reconnaissance would be extremely dangerous."

"Moreover, since Zhao Desheng dared to get involved, he must have been prepared in advance, since we are not familiar with the terrain."

Chu Yiren was somewhat worried. She hoped that Chen Shan could make a name for himself in the military camp, but the Xia Kingdom's army... was already riddled with holes.

With the added threat of enemy countries, it's not easy to stand out from the crowd.

Upon hearing this, Chen Shan began to ponder.

"Boss, if you ask me, the first thing we should do after we get out is take care of Zhao Desheng. There are over a dozen of us, why should we be afraid of them?"

"Otherwise, if that old man shoots us from the shadows, things could get really troublesome."

As Liu Sanshi spoke, the others also agreed with this method. They all knew that defending against the enemy was far more troublesome than defending against their own people.

"It's alright, I'm here. They won't succeed. Although this mission is dangerous, it might also be an opportunity for us."

A ruthless glint flashed in Chen Shan's eyes. Zhao Desheng wanted him dead, but wasn't Chen Shan the same way?

Not only must he die, but Chen Shan must also perform meritorious service!

Jingshan Camp is just the first step, certainly not his last!

"My lord, you must be very careful."

Liu Ruyu and the others were filled with worry. They couldn't go to the battlefield; if they did, they would only be a burden.

Although Xiao Ningning was a skilled fighter, she was still a woman, and being in the military camp, she could take care of the others.

"Don't worry, when has your husband ever let you down?"

"Everyone, go back and prepare. Bring everything you need."

From the moment they entered the military camp, the army issued them armor, along with swords, shields, bows and arrows, and so on.

Of course, these weapons and equipment were nothing to Chen Shan.

He has a composite bow, a long-handled sword, and even now, a riot vest.

Those things were merely decorative to him.

noon.

Zhao Desheng had already led five people to wait at the drill ground.

Chen Shan also brought eighteen brothers with him.

"Everyone's here, let's go."

"Our mission to Chiling is primarily to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. You must all follow orders; otherwise, I, the squad leader, have the authority to take action."

Zhao Desheng's words were clearly meant for Chen Shan and the others.

After all, the five people behind him were his trusted subordinates.

After leaving the military camp, the troops headed straight for the mountains.

Although the military camp was in the desert, a hundred miles ahead was a mountain range called Red Ridge.

Red Ridge is also barren and desolate, with occasional swirling yellow sand obscuring the view.

However, beyond Chiling lies the grasslands of the Qing Dynasty. Although the area bordering Chiling is also a barren desert with rocks, the grasslands become more abundant the further in you go.

The two countries are neighbors, but their ecosystems are completely different. Beyond the seven kingdoms of the world, there are also unique landscapes.

As the group advanced further, their vision became increasingly obstructed. However, thanks to the power of the Six Stones, Chen Shan not only experienced physical growth in all aspects, but his five senses were also greatly enhanced.

Therefore, it is not greatly affected.

"The Red Ridge is just ahead. Qing spies often roam around there. Chen Shan, lead your men as the vanguard, and I, the squad leader, will bring up the rear."

"If anything changes, remember to send someone back to report, otherwise you'll fall into an ambush and won't be able to blame me."

At the back of the group, Zhao Desheng began to give orders, but his words clearly indicated that he was asking Chen Shan and his men to take risks.

It could even be a trap.

"Damn it, Zhao the Fat Pig, why don't you go be the vanguard? With so few men, what kind of formation are you going to maintain? I bet you can't even keep your wife in line!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Sanshi immediately retorted.

He made it sound so noble when it was clearly a suicide mission!
