Chapter 210 Everyone Wants to Go Home to Be with Their Wife

"Yes, the Ministry of State Security..."

"Just notify them and let them investigate who is so bold as to bully medical experts protected by the state."

Hearing the coldness in the chief of staff's tone, the guards did not dare to be negligent at all.

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

At this time, deep in a dense forest, among the withered grass and trees, there were two tents painted straw yellow. Gu Jinghong sat in the tent, listening to the sound coming from the old radio, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Is things not going well ahead?"

"Yes, I heard that the reconnaissance company suffered casualties earlier, and the Japanese division also suffered casualties. The Blue Army's resistance this time is very fierce, and they seem to have other plans. Our army asked us to lie dormant for the time being and make another move after daybreak."

Gu Jinghong held a telescope and looked at the place in the distance where there was a huge chimney.

"If we can take that place, our team will have a temporary buffer zone."

Hearing him say this, the division political commissar next to him was really scared and spoke quickly.

"Commander, you just got back. This is your first battle. You don't need to have many achievements, but you must be careful. You have to be careful. The commander has been doubting our ability. Have you forgotten what he said before we came here?"

The others in command of the tent also looked over at him.

Gu Jinghong was speechless.

"Who do you all think I am? Am I such an unreliable person?"

Everyone's eyes were determined. You were usually quite reliable, but you got angry at critical moments. If you hadn't been injured last time, you would have been kicked in the butt by the commander.

The political commissar suddenly asked, not knowing whether he wanted to distract Gu Jinghong.

"Commander, our exercise will be over in about ten days. Add in the summary meeting and report writing, and it'll be about fifteen days. You can still go home for the New Year. Are you planning on going back?"

Gu Jinghong held the telescope in his hand and looked back at the political commissar.

"I want to go back. This is my first year with my wife, and I really want to go home and be with her. I don't know if she's still in the countryside or if she's returned to Jiangcheng. Since I came to this desolate mountain, I haven't received any information from her. She didn't reply to the letter I wrote to her before. Maybe she hasn't returned to Jiangcheng yet and will probably spend the New Year in her hometown."

The political commissar walked up to him and also looked outside.

"Is your hometown far from the capital? If you go back, will you still be able to catch the dumplings on the first day of the new year?"

Speaking of dumplings, all the soldiers raised their heads, and a young soldier said.

"I've been in the army for three years and haven't been home yet. What I miss most is the dumplings at home. Hehe, if we win this time, I'm going to use all three years of my home leave."

Another soldier also said.

"It's been even longer for me than it has for you. It's been five years since I last went home. My wife was pregnant when I left home. Now my son is five years old, and I haven't even seen what he looks like."

The soldier was in his thirties, and his eyes showed longing and expectation when he spoke, but there was no sadness in his face.

Soldiers have always been able to endure hardships, and they don’t take it seriously. They just miss their families.

Gu Jinghong looked back at the soldier and said in a deep voice.

"I'll give you leave to go home for the New Year this year."

The soldier stood up excitedly and saluted Gu Jinghong.
