Chapter 111 Why does she appear here?
The road between the military compound and the regimental headquarters is lit by streetlights at regular intervals. Since it's located within the military complex, there are frequent patrols, so the security situation is relatively safe.
However, it was nearly ten o'clock in the evening, and in this era, with a lack of diverse entertainment, most families had turned off the lights and gone to bed.
The dim street lights seemed particularly desolate in the bleak autumn wind. Zhou Ruoyu bit her lip hard and whispered to herself, "Men must never be spoiled. So what if they're men? Can they stay out all night? My man, absolutely not!"
When Zhou Ruoyu rode his bike close to the regiment headquarters entrance, the sentry at the door had already noticed the movement and became alert.
With an emergency brake, Zhou Ruoyu stopped in front of the gate, and at this time, the black muzzle of a gun was pointed at her.
"...I, I am Lu Qinchuan's lover!" Zhou Ruoyu didn't expect to be greeted with such a scene. She raised her hands and explained in a shrill voice.
Swords and guns are merciless, and the sentries are almost all new recruits. Who knows which greenhorn might accidentally fire a gun? She is only eighteen years old and as beautiful as a flower.
Coincidentally, the two sentries in this squad had never seen Zhou Ruoyu before. Not only did they not move their guns away, they even moved them forward.
One of them said sternly, "Nonsense! Don't you see what time it is? Could it be that Captain Lu's lover is here to keep watch?"
The other one didn't care about gender distinctions and grabbed Zhou Ruoyu's arm behind her back. He hit her hard and her face turned green with pain, and cold sweat oozed down her forehead.
Zhou Ruoyu secretly groaned in her heart, wondering how unlucky she was. She came here in the middle of the night to find Lu Qinchuan, but ran into these two unreasonable sentinels.
She had no choice but to try to explain, but the two sentries didn't listen at all and treated her as a suspicious person.
Zhou Ruoyu had no choice but to use all her strength to try to break free from the sentry's control. But the sentry was a man and very strong, and Zhou Ruoyu was no match for him.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance. It turned out to be the soldiers changing guards. Zhou Ruoyu hurriedly shouted: "I am your Captain Lu's lover, please let me go!"
The soldiers who came later quickened their pace and surrounded him. They were stunned when they saw Zhou Ruoyu being caught by the sentry.
After a while, an old soldier reacted and quickly stepped forward to apologize to Zhou Ruoyu and asked the sentry to release her. Zhou Ruoyu rubbed her aching shoulders and glared at the two sentries fiercely: "Lu Qinchuan asked me to come here. If you don't believe me, go ask your regiment commander!"
Seeing the sentry put away his gun, Zhou Ruoyu's mind calmed down a little.
Lu Qinchuan was indeed at the regiment headquarters. Before leaving work, the orderly Xiao Jiang came to report on Qian Hu's movements. He said that he went to the farm to find Tan Ying overnight, but no one knew what the two of them talked about. Although he knew that Tan Ying would not go to the cafeteria to help in the kitchen as he wished, he was actually quite happy when he walked out of the yard.
Lu Qinchuan told him to ignore it for the time being and prepared to go home after get off work with Captain Zhu who had already walked out.
As soon as I reached the door, I saw the Second Company Commander, Wen Dabao, approaching excitedly: "Report to the regiment commander, our Second Company is preparing to start a surprise training and competition tomorrow morning. Please give us your instructions and supervision!"
Lu Qinchuan had also risen through the ranks from company commander, and was very familiar with all of them. Among them, Wen Dabao was the most cunning and eloquent.
"Didn't you help the local authorities capture an enemy spy lurking among us? Our company responded accordingly, conducting targeted physical and skills training to ensure that we can deploy, charge, and win at this critical moment, just like you!"
He was flattered by Wen Dabao's words. No normal person could refuse such praise, so he nodded and said, "Not bad! The soldiers of your Second Company are all full of energy and have excellent tactical execution capabilities. However, you still need to strengthen your teamwork spirit to better deal with emergencies!"
"Yes!" Wen Dabao put away his smile and saluted with a serious face.
"So our company has decided to conduct a surprise training competition. Since you have extensive combat experience, we'd like you to supervise us!"
It's another high hat that's been put on tightly, and as a regimental-level cadre promoted from the grassroots, it's reasonable for him to participate in this kind of grassroots training.
Lu Qinchuan nodded in agreement and continued to walk out: "What time tomorrow, I will drive directly to Shepherd Valley."
Wen Dabao chuckled, "Since this is a surprise attack, you have to act nervous. It might be too late for you to rush back home, so the exact time must be kept secret."
Since it was a confidential mission, Lu Qinchuan naturally had to respect Wen Dabao's decision and must not leak any information from him.
Lu Qinchuan stopped and frowned as he watched Captain Zhu gradually moving away.
"Why, Captain Lu, if I don't go home, it will be difficult for me to explain to my sister-in-law?" Wen Dabao said with a wicked smile, "I heard that you almost couldn't get into bed because you didn't wash your feet not long after you got married, hehehe."
Lu Qinchuan's face darkened. "You actually believed what Old Zhu said! Wen Dabao, I'm warning you, if I hear this from someone else again, no matter who spread it, I'll put you in solitary confinement!"
"Okay, okay, I won't say it." After saying that, Wen Dabao made a cross on his mouth, meaning that his mouth was the tightest.
After he finished speaking, he didn't leave, but went straight in. Lu Qinchuan grabbed him and said, "What are you doing?"
Wen Dabao shook his head nonchalantly: "I can't leave either. I'll stay with you at the regiment headquarters so you don't get lonely without your wife."
……
Wen Dabao lay down on the camp bed in the corner with his clothes on, and started snoring after a few minutes.
Lu Qinchuan looked around. He was tall and had long legs, so he couldn't stretch his legs anywhere he wanted to lie down. So he just sat down in the chair in front of his desk and closed his eyes to rest.
It's okay to close your eyes, but it's very difficult to rest your mind. Wen Dabao's snoring is not only loud and rapid, but also always suddenly increases in volume without warning.
Lu Qinchuan sat on the chair with his legs crossed on the desk, enduring Wen Dabao's rhythmic and occasional snoring.
Just as he was half asleep, he heard a chaotic argument outside, accompanied by hurried footsteps. His first thought was that Wen Dabao's blitz training had begun, and he thought to himself, "It's finally started! The sooner it starts, the sooner it can end."
I glanced at the corner where the light couldn't reach, and saw that Wen Dabao had no intention of getting up. He turned over and changed to a more comfortable position, and then started snoring again.
Since he had no intention of getting up, the noise outside couldn't be the Second Company's training. He was just about to lift his legs, which were sore from being on the desk for so long, when he heard a woman's voice from outside the door: "Lu Qinchuan, Lu Qinchuan!"
He sat up with a start, lost his balance and almost fell off the chair, but he didn't care about all that. He didn't know whether it was a dream or reality. He heard Zhou Ruoyu calling him.
There was obvious anger, anxiety, and panic in her voice. All the emotions mixed together made her voice begin to tremble.
In a panic, Lu Qinchuan looked at his watch and found that it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Why did she suddenly appear here? What happened?
As a soldier who started out as a scout, Lu Qinchuan has always been favored by the old regiment commander Chen Guozheng for his calmness and composure in the face of crumbling mountains.
However, at this moment, when he heard those two shouts, the anxiety and fear deep in his heart instantly burst out, causing him to completely lose his composure.
He didn't even have time to pick up the fallen chair. He staggered to open the door and rushed out desperately.
