The soldier next to him retorted, "Deputy Battalion Commander Liu has become quite a celebrity in our unit lately; many people know him."
So he was only recently promoted; no wonder Lu Zhengjun had never heard of him.
He hadn't returned for almost half a year, and I knew nothing about him, so I inquired carefully.
"Deputy Battalion Commander Liu is a very famous person in our army recently. A year ago, when he was on a mission, he saved a teammate who was almost killed by a bomb and then won a third-class award."
"Later, it was like he had a cheat code. He caught the eye of our Brigade Commander Mo's daughter. At first, Deputy Battalion Commander Liu was very principled and refused to comply. Later, it seems that Brigade Commander Mo talked to him, and Deputy Battalion Commander Liu was not so resistant."
“In the past few months, Deputy Battalion Commander Liu has been frequently dispatched on missions. He is also capable and has made many military achievements. That’s why he was promoted to deputy battalion commander two months ago.”
"But everyone knows in private that he's going to become the brigade commander's son-in-law."
"Logically speaking, Deputy Battalion Commander Liu's qualifications are not very good, but last month, he was able to apply for a house in the military family compound and succeeded. Sigh, having connections makes things easier."
"That's right. I heard they've already set a date and will be getting married soon."
"I heard that this Deputy Battalion Commander Liu has only been in the army for three years and is only twenty-three years old. He's not even as old as me, but he's a higher-ranking officer than me."
The two of them talked back and forth, and soon they had told the whole story.
Lu Zhengjun is usually very kind to his subordinates.
Although he is different when leading a team on missions than when training, he is still very easy to talk to in private and has no airs of a top soldier.
Therefore, seeing that Lu Zhengjun did not speak, the two soldiers said a few more words.
But when I looked up again, I saw that his face was extremely pale and his eyes were cold, making my legs tremble.
The two soldiers exchanged a glance and knew they were doomed. Just as they were thinking about how to apologize, Lu Zhengjun left.
Is Commander Lu angry?
"Probably."
"Then why didn't he punish us?"
"have no idea."
The two whispered to each other. Lu Zhengjun, who hadn't gone far, seemed to sense something and suddenly stopped. The two men's expressions changed, and they turned and ran away.
Lu Zhengjun wasn't angry. Gossiping is human nature, and it's also normal to be a little bored in the army sometimes. She just turned a blind eye and let it pass.
He was just a little surprised.
According to what those two soldiers just said, Liu Dekai is a good person.
He trained hard and was very proactive in missions. He accumulated military merits and began to be promoted. This year, he was even more lucky and caught the eye of the brigade commander's daughter, which gave him many opportunities to go on missions.
In addition, he himself is also very capable. He was promoted to deputy battalion commander at a young age based on his military achievements. Now he can also get in touch with the brigade commander. His future is probably very promising.
This Liu Dekai is twenty-three years old, just like the Liu Dekai Su Yueya mentioned.
Same name, same age, even the same job title—all the information matches perfectly. It's impossible for such a coincidence to exist in the world.
Unless, they are the same person.
If that's the case, then it makes sense.
