The fake heiress from the 1970s was kicked out at the beginning, but became a village girl and was p

"Two days ago, the division commander went to a meeting in the border mountains, and the regimental commander of the first regiment was also sent on a mission. Only the deputy regimental commander was at the base."

"It was the deputy head of the delegation who sent Qi Lao to support the procurement team. I heard that our procurement team was attacked by an unknown force on the way, and everyone in the car, including the driver, was injured."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuyan frowned even more deeply.

Damn it.

What does it mean to be attacked from an unknown source?

"Shouldn't this kind of thing be handled by his deputy commander, who would bring the injured back to the medical station for treatment? When did the procedure change?"

Jiang Yuyan's tone was cold; for the first time, she spoke to them rudely and sharply, pressing them for answers.

Seeing their puzzled expressions, he walked straight past them towards the deputy commander's office.

The main reason for this incident was that deputy regimental commander; she wanted to go and ask him personally what was going on.

As the deputy head of the delegation, upon hearing that the procurement team had been attacked, he not only failed to lead an emergency rescue team, but also hid in his office while sending out medical staff who had no fighting skills.

Is this just a joke? Or is someone being murdered?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuyan's aura turned cold and aggressive, as if she was very angry and about to lose her temper, which surprised Wu Lan slightly.

She thought Jiang Yuyan had no temper.

The first time I met her, she seemed gentle and mild-mannered, speaking softly, as if she were an easy-going girl next door who could be bullied by anyone without getting angry.

The three went directly to the deputy commander's office.

Jiang Yuyan tried to go in, but the guards at the door stopped her.

"Who's there? This isn't a place for you. Get out of here. Our deputy commander is resting and we don't want anyone disturbing him."

Jiang Yuyan smiled.

"Oh!"

"Didn't they say the purchasing team was attacked?"

"As the deputy commander of the base, it's one thing for him to send incompetent medical personnel, but instead, he's just hiding in his office resting?"

"Who does he think he is as a deputy regimental commander? Does he treat the lives of soldiers outside like paper? Just scribbling on them when he wants them, and throwing them away when he doesn't?"

The guard paused, stopping her hand, his brow furrowing.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Wait a moment, I'll go in and ask the deputy commander. Please wait here." With that, he went inside.

"It seems the deputy commander of the South Base has quite the airs, with so many rules. If I didn't know better, I would have thought I had traveled back to the Qing Dynasty."

Jiang Yuyan snorted coldly, her mouth as if it were coated with poison, and she spoke without hesitation.

When Li Guozhong, the deputy regimental commander, happened to come out and heard this, his face immediately darkened.

He walked out, glanced at Jiang Yuyan and the others, and finally fixed his gaze on the soldier behind them who was relaying the message.

"Which team are you from? Why are you making a scene in front of my office with these two people? Don't you have any manners?"

Jiang Yuyan interrupted his questioning directly.

"May I ask if you are Li Guozhong, the deputy commander of the South District base?"

"I am who I am. And who are you? And who gave you permission to come and go as you please? I don't know—"

Seeing that he was starting to ramble on about useless principles and rules again, Jiang Yuyan impatiently interrupted him once more.

"I'd like to ask Deputy Commander Li, when the procurement team was attacked, why did you only send my mentor to provide support? Aren't you afraid there might be some other ambush behind us?"

"You... are Comrade Yanzi, Master Qi's apprentice?" Li Guozhong asked, though his tone was one of certainty.

"Old Qi is the most skilled doctor in our base's clinic. I sent him there to provide support so that he could rescue the wounded as soon as possible. What, am I wrong to do that?"

Jiang Yuyan was utterly speechless at his brainless logic.

"What do you mean my master has the best medical skills and we should send him to provide support? How did you even become the 'vice' commander?"

"According to military regulations, protecting the safety of the people is the top priority. The procurement team was attacked, and not only did you not lead a team to provide support, but you also tried to sever all ties?"

Li Guozhong gave the outspoken woman a cold look.

"Who do you think you are to question my position? Even if it were someone else, you wouldn't be a mere brat like me who hasn't even grown a beard yet and only knows how to question my identity because you have a powerful master."

After saying that, he didn't want to pay any more attention to Jiang Yuyan and ordered his men to take her back and keep an eye on her, preventing her from entering or leaving the base at will.

Jiang Yuyan's cold eyes flashed. "You're trying to imprison me now? Who gave you that right? Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you're the base's 'deputy' commander?"

Li Guozhong scoffed, "Here, as the deputy commander, I can do whatever I want. What can you do about it?"

"Take her back and keep a close watch on her. If she escapes—"

Before he could finish his arrogant words, Wu Lan expressionlessly spread a document in front of him, making him clearly see the large characters at the beginning: "First-Class Merit."

Li Guozhong stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what he was seeing.

He looked and looked, rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and when he opened them again, he saw the same result.

Li Guozhong looked at Wu Lan, then at Jiang Yuyan who seemed unaware of what had happened, and suddenly seemed to understand everything.

"It was you? You tried to fool me with fake documents—"

Wu Lan didn't argue with him, but instead showed him the large red official seal at the end of the document so he could see it clearly.

"Does Deputy Regiment Commander Li still believe this document is fake? Or have you never seen what the official seal on a document approved by higher authorities looks like?"

Li Guozhong: "..."

Li Guozhong had certainly seen it.

It was precisely because he had seen it that he couldn't accept that a girl not much older than his child could do something so great for the country and its people to earn this honor of a first-class merit.

"This...how is this possible—"

Although Jiang Yuyan didn't know what document Wu Lan had shown him that made him look like he had suffered a huge blow, she was anxious about her master's situation.

"Deputy Commander Li, is this the time for you to be so dejected? Shouldn't you be setting off immediately to rescue the procurement team and the former clinic staff?"

Damn it, if she weren't powerless to speak right now, she would have grabbed this idiot deputy commander and thrown him over there to save people.

"Oh right, save people, save people..."

Li Guozhong's eyes darted around, but when he saw the soldier standing behind Jiang Yuyan, his eyes immediately lit up, and he pointed at him and said...

"Xiao Liu, I'm sending you with a team to support our base's procurement group. Make sure everyone comes back safely."

Jiang Yuyan and Wu Lan: "..."

"Wait!" Jiang Yuyan called out to the soldier who was about to leave, and her expression turned cold as she looked at Li Guozhong, who had not moved.

"Deputy Commander Li, why wasn't it you leading the team instead of him? Don't you know how important the procurement team is to the base? Do you know what that means?"

Jiang Yuyan is really popular now.

How did this person become the deputy regimental commander? Did he get in through connections?

Otherwise, why would he do something so absurd?

Could it be that he can't find the base and relies entirely on purchasing supplies? What if there are problems with the purchasing?

The base will definitely face supply problems in the next few days.
