A courtyard house; Li Yunlong, a subordinate of the deputy director of Harbin Military Engineering I

As expected, they both overslept the next morning.

However, there was no one else at home, and when Zhang Xiyue opened her eyes, the sun was already high in the sky.

Ignoring the tearing pain, Zhang Xiyue sat up abruptly, looked at Zhang Renfeng on the bed, and angrily pinched Zhang Renfeng's arm.

"It's all your fault! I told you I didn't want it anymore! Look at the time!"

By the end, I almost couldn't hold back my tears and blushed terribly.

On the first morning of my marriage, I slept until noon. If people knew that, they would laugh their heads off.

Overnight, their relationship underwent a qualitative change. They had been a bit awkward last night, but after getting to know each other better, Zhang Xiyue also felt that this man was really nice.

Moreover, they will be the closest people to each other from now on. Zhang Xiyue's understanding of Zhang Renfeng is not just superficial. The heart is only a few centimeters away from the body surface.

Well, for Zhang Xiyue, Zhang Renfeng is just a matter of how many centimeters negative he is, right?

Only she knew that Zhang Renfeng was over seventeen! After all, she had almost lost control of him last night!

Recalling Zhang Renfeng's actions last night, Zhang Xiyue felt like she wanted to devour him.

That's absolutely insane!

Unexpectedly, Zhang Renfeng, who seemed so serious, was actually so wild in bed, and had immense strength and stamina.

Just thinking about all this made Zhang Xiyue so embarrassed she felt like she was about to bleed.

Zhang Renfeng opened his eyes and pulled Zhang Xiyue's soft body into his arms. "What are you thinking about? Who would laugh at you!"

Zhang Xiyue felt stiff all over and tried to struggle to get up, otherwise she would definitely be beaten again.

That feeling, anyone who's tasted it knows, it's unpleasant!

Zhang Renfeng felt an emptiness in his arms, looking somewhat lost, after all, he had just thought of a new position and was about to try it out.

As it turned out, Zhang Xiyue ran to the foot of the bed.

But it doesn't matter, once you've tasted the sweetness, you'll want more. We can come back tonight.

Zhang Renfeng didn't notice that Zhang Xiyue lifted the covers, glanced at the scene, and immediately buried her head back under the covers. She secretly chuckled and cursed to herself, "I really am..." "The whole position is a mess..."

After the two got up and washed up, they went to the door and found that Brigade Commander Chen's family hadn't come over. Zhang Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief. Last night, before leaving, Brigade Commander Chen had joked that they should see who could get up earlier tomorrow.

Seeing Zhang Renfeng's grinning face, Zhang Xiyue couldn't hold back this time. She stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and bit his wrist hard.

"Ouch!" Although the bite was harmless, Zhang Renfeng still pretended to scream.

A row of neat teeth marks was left on his wrist. Zhang Xiyue smiled smugly.

"Does it hurt? That's good, it's your punishment for being rough last night."

"Let me tell you, I'm in much more pain than you are right now. Look, you're not even bleeding."

Zhang Renfeng looked at her playful appearance, which she had never seen before in a while. It seemed that this was her true nature.

However, this is fine.

Zhang Renfeng wailed, "You little comrade, I never expected you to be such a tigress! Marrying me has finally revealed your true colors, hasn't it?"

Zhang Xiyue crossed her arms and placed them under her ample chest, tilting her head slightly upwards.

"Now you know how powerful I am, right? See if you dare to be so rude again."

Her tone was more like a coquettish plea, and she herself didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

From the bottom of her heart, she regarded Zhang Renfeng as her support, her lover, and the man she could trust most.

Zhang Renfeng smiled slightly, "I won't bully you now, but you'll see tonight. Come on, let's go eat."

Zhang Xiyue was extremely puzzled. "Aren't you supposed to cook for yourself?" "If I cook, there's no need to eat out; it's a waste of money."

Seeing Zhang Xiyue's thrifty and hardworking demeanor, Zhang Renfeng winked at her, "Go next door for a free meal and ask Sister Fu to make you some brown sugar water to replenish your blood."

Zhang Xiyue blushed. "Pah, you can't say anything nice. Go eat some lamb kidneys, they'll help nourish your kidneys..."

As soon as she said it, she felt it was too blunt, and muttered to herself, "Let's not add any more, it's already strong enough."

Arriving at number 41 next door, Zhang Renfeng walked in casually, greeted the guard, and the staff took Xiao Jian to school, leaving Sister Fu busy in the kitchen.

Hearing the noise, I poked my head out. "Hey, you two are up? Didn't you stay up all night?"

Having been through it all, he spoke without hesitation.

This made Zhang Xiyue blush, and she quickly ran inside to help, "Sister Fu, let me help."

"No, the bride is unsteady on her feet, should we go and rest?"

Sister Fu then said something that completely stumped Zhang Xiyue. Women are women, straightforward, explicit, and pleasant to hear.

Zhang Renfeng asked with a smile, "Where's the old brigade commander?"

Upon hearing this, Sister Fu paused, sighed, and said, "Don't even mention it. My back is acting up; I'm probably resting in bed right now!"

"Comrade Xiao Fu, you've done something terrible! Why are you talking nonsense to them?"

Brigade Commander Chen looked unwell. He walked out, supporting his back and leaning on a cane. Despite clearly not being in good condition, he insisted on coming out, a forced smile on his face.

"Renfeng, come to my study, let's have a chat."

Zhang Renfeng went to help him up, patting the old brigade commander's waist forcefully. "Good heavens! You're still got it!"

"I....."

Brigade Commander Chen's expression was ferocious, and he didn't stop cursing until he returned to his room.

"Damn it... Ouch, that really hurts. I have to admit, I'm getting old. I can't even keep going until the end, let alone persevere."

Zhang Renfeng laughed heartily, glanced at the open notebook, picked it up and looked at it, and understood everything. This old guy, isn't he obviously trying to force himself to his death?

"Take a look at this."

The old brigade commander didn't think much of it. After all, his diary was only for his own people to read. What decent person would write down their true feelings?

Zhang Renfeng glanced at a training plan from the Corps Staff Department.

The old brigade commander said, "Qin Jiwei's army and Li Yunlong's army each have their strengths. During the stalemate phase, who do you plan to use to guard Wusheng Mountain and Shangganling?"

Zhang Renfeng pondered for a moment, "Wusheng Mountain is the gateway to the entire central front. Whoever loses it will bear the brunt of the blame."

Li Yunlong's troops were trained in defensive warfare; the tunnel excavation and foxhole construction techniques I taught him in the Taihang Mountains were more thoroughly mastered than anyone else's.

I suggest that the main position at Wusheng Mountain be handed over to Li Yunlong and Qin Jiwei's unit, and all the engineers in the entire army corps should be given to them to be specifically responsible for tunnel fortifications and underground passages.

My idea is to dig tunnels to connect all the foxholes and positions at various high points...

The 12th Army, as a mobile reserve, is deployed on the flank of Wusheng Mountain. If the main position becomes critical, they can quickly launch a counterattack.

After listening, Brigade Commander Chen leaned back in his chair, thought for a moment, and nodded. "Hmm, this arrangement is good. Although that bastard Li Yunlong is a loose tongue, he's definitely a good fighter. But you have to keep an eye on his temper and make sure he doesn't cause trouble with neighboring units."

Zhang Renfeng laughed, "He dares to cause trouble? I'll shove his head down his pants."

Commander Chen was amused by this remark.

Brigade Commander Chen patted Zhang Renfeng on the shoulder, "Brother, I'm not feeling well. I estimate you'll have to head north after the Spring Festival. While I'm gone, you can do your best. The deputy political commissar will stay in Beijing, and you'll concurrently serve as the deputy political commissar. You'll be in charge of both military and political affairs!"

Upon hearing this, a phrase involuntarily came to mind for Zhang Renfeng.

"The Crown Prince is frail and sickly; you must strive to improve."

After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself, "Alright, old brigade commander, just relax and recover. You're guaranteed to win without lifting a finger!"

Brigade Commander Chen chuckled, and after Zhang Renfeng left, he immediately made a note in his notebook.

[With a little trickery, Zhang Xiaogui immediately became incredibly motivated. Such a fierce and capable general, not using him as a deputy would be a waste! Yesterday at the banquet, the superior and the two gentlemen first proposed military industrial academies. For the vice-president and vice-political commissar, I only wanted Zhang Demolition; the rest were unimportant. The superior then proposed a second ministry for weapons manufacturing, including some military factories under the Heavy Industry Bureau. I recommended Zhang to take on this role concurrently, and the two gentlemen raised their hands in agreement. When it comes to military equipment, who else but Zhang? And judging from Nie's expression, he seemed overjoyed. With Nie, Chen, and Zhang joining forces, the scale of our national defense will surely reach world-class levels. Given time, we can definitely make the Americans bow down. Alas, I'm in very poor condition today. I'll rest for a day and continue my challenge with Comrade Xiao Fu tonight.]
