The team on the mountain returned safely soon.
Niu Lili and three other military wives were safely taken to the conference room.
The injured military wife was also treated by a military doctor.
The leg has been reconnected and there is no danger to his life.
The meeting room was a mess.
The political commissar and a few others had finished cleaning up the mess, but they still didn't give him a good look and started scolding him.
"Are you thinking you've lived too long? You even dared to open the isolation net. Are you looking for death?"
"If you want to die, don't harm us! If a wild animal gets out and attacks the villagers nearby, ten of your lives won't be enough to pay for it."
What the political commissar said was the truth. Their duty is to protect the lives and property of the people. If their dereliction of duty causes loss of people's property, it is an unforgivable crime.
This matter is of no small importance and must be severely punished, otherwise, others will follow suit.
The military wives all knew they were in trouble, and they were all so scared that they burst into tears.
Niu Lili cried and explained, "Political Commissar, we know we were wrong. We just heard that there were nourishing Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng in the mountains, so we thought of digging some up to nourish our soldiers. We opened the isolation net, and it was really a momentary impulse."
"We didn't plan to walk far, thinking that as long as we were close to the base camp, we would be fine. But we got lost as soon as we entered and even encountered wolves."
"Political Commissar, we are doing this for the good of the soldiers. This is the first time we've made such a mistake. We ask the officers to show some leniency. We will never do something as foolish as today again."
Niu Lili cried so pitifully that it made me feel sorry for her. What she said really sounded like the truth.
The other military wives all said the same thing, that they really did want to go into the mountains to dig ginseng.
In the conference room, all the officers were speechless.
Whether the purpose is good or bad, it cannot be used as an excuse for sophistry.
If it's wrong, it's wrong.
The political commissar sighed angrily.
"Okay, stop talking. I won't forgive you for the mistake you made this time."
Having said that, I still feel a little bit reluctant.
After all, these people are not soldiers, but just military wives, and I really don’t know how to deal with them.
He turned around and discussed with Huo Jinyan and other officers.
"Look, what should we do with them?"
Everyone was silent for a moment, and the political commissar directly called on Huo Jinyan: "Jinyan, what do you say?"
Huo Jinyan sat there, completely unconcerned about Niu Lili and the others, his entire body in a trance.
The images in his mind were all about his entanglement with Jiang Mengning.
It was only when the political commissar called him that he came to his senses.
Niu Lili looked at him eagerly, hoping that he would soften his heart for once.
If Captain Huo could let her off easily this time, she would be grateful to him for the rest of her life.
I am willing to work like a slave for him all my life.
Brother Huo, please don’t let me down!
"This matter has a serious impact and must be dealt with according to military law."
Huo Jinyan's cold voice drifted into everyone's ears, and Niu Lili and the others felt cold all over.
She looked at Huo Jinyan with disappointment, her eyes filled with tears.
Over the years, she liked him so much and gave so much for him, but in the end, she was treated so coldly.
He was completely trampling on her sincerity and she couldn't get any response at all.
Huo Jinyan, you are really too cruel.
Niu Lili felt so heartbroken that she almost fainted.
She felt very bitter in her heart. After all, she was nothing in his heart.
"Let me say this: all problems can be resolved before any damage is done. Although Niu Lili and the others committed a cardinal sin in the military, their intentions were good. Military law is ruthless, but human nature is compassionate. In this case, I believe they can be given a lighter punishment."
Zhang Long's voice was loud, and every word he said was full of security to Niu Lili.
He fell into an icy cave one second and was rescued the next second. He turned out to be an excellent officer.
Niu Lili looked at Zhang Long with admiration, her heart pounding. At this moment, she would be willing to kneel down for him.
There is more than one outstanding person in this world. It’s just that she used to put her whole heart into Huo Jinyan and completely ignored the existence of others.
Now I am disappointed with Huo Jinyan. As expected, I can be instantly attracted to someone better.
Niu Lili bit her lip and thought to herself, Huo Jinyan, you will definitely regret losing me.
As the deputy regiment commander, Zhang Long's status and position in the army are also very convincing.
The political commissar looked at Huo Jinyan and then at Zhang Long.
The two of them had different opinions and he didn't know what to do.
Then he asked Huo Jinyan: "Jinyan, after Deputy Captain Zhang said this, do you have any other ideas?"
Huo Jinyan has been in a daze all day and didn't hear a single word of the meeting.
When you let him make a decision, he will just stick to the facts without any emotion.
After a long while, the political commissar didn't get a response and coughed awkwardly.
How could he not know that this kid had been looking so miserable all day, as if he had been bewitched by a vixen.
This has never happened before.
"Jinyan, please say something." He knocked on the table in front of him, reminding someone not to go too far.
Huo Jinyan came back to his senses, stood up, and acted indifferent.
"You two can discuss this matter. I'll go back first."
He doesn't care about the punishment, why waste that time!
After saying this, he walked out of the meeting room without giving the political commissar any face at all.
The political commissar picked up the enamel pot and drank some water to ease the embarrassment.
This guy just left without saying anything. It made him so angry.
As for the punishment for Niu Lili and others, after discussion, the final decision was to ask those who committed the offense to write a self-criticism of more than a thousand words and recite their mistakes in the radio room tomorrow.
In addition, he was punished to clean toilets for a month, and his family members who served in the military had one month's salary deducted.
This punishment is reasonable.
After the meeting, Niu Lili specifically sought out Zhang Long and said, "Deputy Head Zhang, thank you so much for speaking up for me today. If it weren't for you, I might have received a more severe punishment."
Zhang Long glanced at her. Under the alternating light and dark lighting, the woman looked somewhat charming.
In particular, Niu Lili changed her previous plain image, learned how to dress herself, and became much prettier than before.
He looked at her and smiled, "You didn't do this on purpose. I will definitely try my best to help you if I can."
Niu Lili was even more moved.
Looking at Zhang Long, her little face turned red uncontrollably.
It was getting late, and it was not a good idea for the two of them to stand here.
She said, "We're going the same way anyway, let's go back together!"
Zhang Long readily agreed: "Okay."
When Huo Jinyan returned home, the children were already asleep.
He returned to his room and prepared to change his clothes.
I reached into my trouser pocket and remembered something, and my heart skipped a beat.
Wait, he remembered to put Jiang Mengning's underwear into his pocket.
Originally I was planning to wash it there, but I forgot about it.
That means the underwear was in his pocket the whole time.
But now, why is it gone!
