As the hatch of the first tank slowly opened, Fei Bing poked her head out, her eyes filled with surprise and joy, and excitedly shouted, "Little Yueyue!"

Tang Yue saw Fei Bing the moment she appeared, but time was of the essence, and Tang Yue didn't greet her. Now that the battle was over, Tang Yue smiled brightly and quickly walked forward.

Fei Bing nimbly jumped off the tank and stood in front of Tang Yue. For a moment, he was at a loss for words.

"Fei Bing, I never expected to meet you here!" Tang Yue broke the silence first, her eyes filled with joy.

Fei Bing scratched his head, a simple and honest smile on his face: "I didn't expect this either! Ever since you rescued me from the germ lab in Japan and brought me back to China, I've been thinking how wonderful it would be to see you again. I never imagined that we would meet again on the battlefield."

Tang Yue's smile didn't fade. "Yes, I didn't expect it either. How have you been since you got back?"

Fei Bing nodded vigorously, "That's great! You brought us from Zhougang, and after several rounds of screening, I returned to my original unit and was even promoted to deputy battalion commander. When the border war with Vietnam entered a critical stage, I volunteered to go to the battlefield. I never expected to be able to fight alongside you!"

Tang Yue really wanted to pat Fei Bing on the shoulder, but Fei Bing was too short to reach. She sighed, "Ah, time really flies. I still remember what happened in Japan. Now we're all in completely different situations."

"You suffered so much in the lab, and seeing you're all well and still able to contribute on the battlefield makes me truly happy."

Fei Bing's eyes were firm, and his tone was sincere: "Xiao Yueyue, if it weren't for you, I would have been dead long ago. I will never forget this kindness in my life. In the army, I have always worked hard to train and study, hoping that one day I could be like you and do something real for the country and the people."

Tang Yue smiled and shook her head: "Don't say that. We are all striving for the prosperity of our motherland. Moreover, your perseverance is worthy of my respect and learning. By the way, how come you're with people from the South Island?"

Fei Bing's eyes darkened. "We encountered a large-scale attack by the US army as soon as we arrived on the battlefield. More than half of the people who had just arrived were killed. There were very few people left in our battalion. When the troops were reorganized, we were combined with the people from the South Island."

Tang Yue hadn't expected Fei Bing and the others to be in such a terrible state. But that's war. Fei Bing seemed to suddenly remember something, "By the way, Yueyue, do you know? Of the group of people who came back from Japan with you, except for a few whose bodies haven't fully recovered, they've all gone to the border war zone in Vietnam."

Tang Yue frowned, "You..."

Fei Bing smiled and said, "We wasted several years in Japan. When we came back and rejoined our respective units, to be honest, many of our comrades who fought alongside us had left. It felt very unfamiliar there."

Furthermore, we all have a feeling that we haven't made any contribution to the country, but we can't just sit in our positions and do nothing.

Tang Yue sighed and shook her head, "You're all overthinking it." Then, Tang Yue suddenly realized, wouldn't that mean Tang Jianye would be coming too?

"Tang Jianye?"

Fei Bing nodded, "Yes, Lao Tang is coming too, but he seems to have received some kind of mission before he left, saying that he has to come with the next batch."

Tang Yue wondered if it was Tang Jianye who had helped her. She sighed, wondering if Liu Ting had settled down yet.

Without giving Tang Yue more time to think, Yang Shengjun had already led more than 20 men up the mountain. Reaching Tang Yue, Yang Shengjun looked down at her and asked, "Why would Commander Kang agree to let you go to the battlefield?"

Seeing Yang Shengjun reminded Tang Yue of Wei Xin. She wondered if Yang's wife was holding him back while he was working so hard. Tang Yue shrugged, "Well, here I am."

Yang Shengjun took a couple of breaths and asked, "What's the situation down the mountain? And what's with your outfit?" As he spoke, his gaze turned to Sun Jinan and Zhang Dabing.

The others watched the two of them, trying not to laugh. It was too funny; how could they possibly show their faces in public dressed like that?

Tang Yue remained silent; she didn't want anyone to disrupt her plans. Looking at the ten tanks laid out before him, Yang Shengjun had no time to argue with Tang Yue; his eyes were already gleaming with greed.

Tang Yue immediately spoke up, "Battalion Commander Yang, let's find someone to drive the tanks down the mountain first. There should still be many American prisoners of war down there that we haven't captured yet, right?"

Yang Shengjun glanced at Tang Yue. What did this girl mean? Did she not want to give them the tanks? How could that be? But now was not the time to talk about that. The Chinese side had already gathered the prisoners of war and brought them down the mountain at gunpoint.

Fei Bing and his men climbed back onto the tanks and drove ten tanks off. The county magistrate, leading the able-bodied men of Shanhe County, kept going and captured more than 100 American soldiers as prisoners. The young men were all beaming with excitement.

Upon seeing the goddess descend from the mountain, the county magistrate immediately ordered the able-bodied men to kneel down. However, Tang Yue waved her hand, and their knees could no longer bend down. The county magistrate immediately understood and quickly ordered the men to stand up straight.

"Your Majesty, we have captured 167 prisoners of war in total. The others may have already escaped. Your Majesty, shall we continue the pursuit?"

"Let's stop chasing. Clean up the battlefield and head back to the county town. Oh, and by the way, send someone to accompany the tank. The Chinese soldiers will help us drive it back."

Yang Shengjun saw Tang Yue talking to the old man from Bianyue Kingdom in a very loud and complicated way, but he couldn't understand what they were saying.

"What are they talking about?" Yang Shengjun looked at Sun Jinan and Zhang Dabing, who remained silent.
