Chapter 488 Chief Gu
Meng Hu shook his head blankly and stammered, "No, no problem."
He Lanzhang's expression changed several times: "This is a big deal, it really needs to be reported as soon as possible."
Yan Shaoyu looked at Meng Hu and said in a serious voice: "Comrade Meng Hu, complete the task as soon as possible!"
Meng Hu nodded heavily and raised his hand to salute: "Yes!"
After that, he led several people from the third team and left quickly. The front line was not far from Lingchuanyan, and it would take a day to go back and forth. During this time, the task of the remaining people was to guard the military fortress and not let the enemies of Country M notice anything unusual.
After Meng Hu left, Yan Shaoyu took the remaining people back to the M country camp.
When everyone saw the bodies of the recently dead lying on the ground, they all fell silent. When they looked up at the figures of the "couple" in front of them, their eyes were filled with admiration and horror. Is this a task that a human can accomplish?
Yan Shaoyu didn't explain and took his men directly to the military fortress.
When the new recruits saw the huge underground fortress, they were all stunned and stood there in shock.
They were new recruits who had just joined the battlefield. They had only heard of the underground fortress before, but they never thought that they would be able to see it with their own eyes one day. After they came to their senses, everyone became excited and wanted to jump up and cheer.
Someone in the crowd shouted, "Platoon leader! We found a military fortress. Did our 168th Platoon do a great deed?"
The person asking the question was a little nervous, and everyone's eyes fell on Yan Shaoyu. After all, this military fortress was discovered by the platoon leader and military doctor Gu, and it actually had nothing to do with them.
Yan Shaoyu's eyebrows moved, and he said without hesitation: "Of course!"
The soldiers in the 168th platoon were under his command. They had lived and died together, so naturally they shared the joys and sorrows. Although the military fortress had little to do with them, being stationed here now meant they had a share of military merit.
He also hoped that after enduring hardships, everyone could leave Lingchuanyan alive and return home to visit their families with glory and military merit.
"Oh oh——" The new recruits in the 168th row burst into warm cheers. Hearing the young and energetic voices, Yan Shaoyu smiled, with tiny fragments of light in his narrow eyes. Gu Yuehuai also curled his lips.
Afterwards, the group began to carry and sort the bodies. When they saw that each body was killed cleanly by a single shot, the new recruits in Platoon 168's admiration for Yan Shaoyu and Gu Yuehuai reached a peak.
The following day was the happiest time for Platoon 168 at Lingchuan Rock.
In the brightly lit underground fortress, everyone took a shower, ate a hot meal, and then were assigned to stand guard and rest, waiting for Meng Hu to lead his men back. With this fortification, Country Z had already won half the battle!
Time passed quickly, and a day later, Meng Hu finally came back, followed by a huge army.
The leading officer was a middle-aged man who looked a bit old-fashioned. He was wearing a neat military uniform with five-pointed star epaulettes on his shoulders. He was obviously a general. However, at this moment, he could no longer remain calm and his eyes were full of anxiety.
After seeing the underground fortress clearly, his arms were shaking with excitement, and he kept saying, "Good! Good!"
"Shao Yu!" Gu Wei turned to look at Yan Shao Yu, unable to hide the excited smile in his eyes.
"Chief!" Yan Shaoyu stepped forward and saluted Gu Wei. He was calm, neither arrogant nor impatient. He did not show any smug look after having accomplished a great deed. Seeing this, Gu Wei was even more satisfied.
He raised his hand and patted Yan Shaoyu's shoulder heavily: "Not bad! Good boy, you have brought honor to our country Z as soon as you became a platoon leader. You have made a contribution! This time, you will definitely be promoted. This is a great contribution! Undoubtedly a great contribution!"
As he spoke later, Gu Wei's tone became excited again. After occupying this underground fortress, the war on the front line should be over.
Yan Shaoyu pursed his lips slightly and said, "The 168th Platoon has been fighting a seesaw battle with the enemy at Lingchuan Rock for more than half a month. It was very hard."
Gu Wei raised his eyebrows and laughed loudly: "Yes! The contribution of the 168th Platoon is real, no one can deny it! Don't worry, I won't mistreat the soldiers under your command! Did you hear that? Your platoon leader is a man of affection and righteousness, and I will never forget you!"
The soldiers of the 168th Platoon responded to MLZL in unison, shouting excitedly, "Thank you, Chief! Thank you, Platoon Leader!"
Everyone was in high spirits, and Gu Wei had already sent people to count the supplies in the fortress.
"Shao Yu, you and..." Gu Wei looked at Gu Yuehuai with a strange expression on his face, and continued: "Doctor Gu, right? You two come together, I have something to ask you."
Yan Shaoyu had known this would happen, so he wasn't panicked at all and pulled Gu Yuehuai along to follow.
Meng Hu looked at the two of them with some concern, and said to He Lanzhang beside him, "Chief Gu has the most stubborn temper and is the most conservative. He wouldn't think that Military Doctor Gu is a woman and deliberately make things difficult for her, right? If it weren't for Military Doctor Gu, we wouldn't have survived. How about I go up and say a few good words to Military Doctor Gu? Don't let Chief Gu make things difficult for us and leave."
As Meng Hu was about to follow, He Lanzhang quickly grabbed his arm and frowned, saying, "The commander didn't ask you to go over there. Besides, you should have said a lot of good things to Doctor Gu along the way, right? Going over now would be counterproductive."
After hearing this, Meng Hu felt that it made sense and sighed, "You are right."
He Lanzhang breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's wait here. Although Commander Gu has a bad temper, he is a reasonable person. We can survive this time, and Doctor Gu is a great contributor. Commander Gu will definitely not make things difficult for her."
Meng Hu nodded and stopped clamoring to say nice things.

On the other side, Gu Wei took Yan Shaoyu and Gu Yuehuai to the officers' command post.
Gu Wei looked at the luxuriously decorated command post and frowned, "These foreign devils are really generous."
He snorted and turned to look at Yan Shaoyu and Gu Yuehuai, his eyes focused on the two young men's holding hands, and then said unhappily: "What does it look like to pull and tug in front of the elders?"
Yan Shaoyu didn't respond, and held Gu Yuehuai's hand without letting go, saying, "Just ask whatever you want, Chief Gu."
Gu Wei glared at Yan Shaoyu. Knowing his temper, he was too lazy to say more to him. Instead, he looked at Gu Yuehuai. The little girl was also very calm when facing him. There was even a faint smile on her face. This temperament made him think highly of her.
He did not deliberately make things difficult for her, but instead said, "Doctor Gu, I heard that you were the one who treated Commander Xu's gunshot wound?"
Gu Yuehuai's brows were calm, and he nodded and said, "Yes."
Gu Wei nodded: "This time, the 168th Platoon was able to successfully contain the enemy and discover the underground fortress. You have made an indispensable contribution. Don't worry, I will report the true situation. Although the girl is young, she is patient and has a good potential."
Yan Shaoyu was slightly surprised. To Gu Wei, who always had a cold face, these words were really unbelievable.
After Gu Wei finished praising Gu Yuehuai, he became serious: "Shao Yu, tell us again about your discovery of the military fortress. Don't miss any details, including how you annihilated the enemy. Don't hide anything!"
"Yes!" Yan Shaoyu saluted and began to speak calmly.
