When Jiang Linhai asked this question, his voice was trembling. He was only a battalion commander now, and he still wanted to climb higher.
"It's hard to say. If this is really the case, it depends on whether the Ren family will pursue the matter. If they don't, you may not be held responsible, but you can't be blameless either.
You're being reckless. How could you kick her out of the house when it was already dark? If you had kept her that night and brought her to the military district to file for a divorce the next morning, wouldn't that have been all right?
Jiang Linhai was now extremely regretful, but what was the point in saying this? Things had already come to this.
"I was really furious at the time. I was so angry when I saw that woman that my whole body was shaking. I really didn't want to see her for even a minute, so..."
"Okay, I know."
After Zheng Hongjun finished speaking, he checked the time and said, "Put your personal affairs aside for now. We're going to have a very important meeting soon. Go back and prepare."
Having a very important meeting?
"Yes, Chief."
Jiang Linhai could only retreat first. He was feeling extremely aggrieved. He was obviously the victim. He had been badly hurt by Ren Rongxue, but that bitch actually did this!
Jiang Linhai went back to prepare. From Zheng Hongjun's tone, it seemed that this was a very important meeting. He couldn't let others laugh at him, so he had to adjust himself to the best condition.
When he was about to go to the meeting, he ran into Zhan Beiqin as soon as he reached the door of the conference room. He quickly called out, "Hello, Brigade Commander Zhan."
"Um."
Zhan Beiqin just responded coldly, then walked into the conference room first. After Jiang Linhai entered, he sat at the last seat. Everyone sitting there had a higher position than him.
After Zheng Hongjun arrived, the meeting officially began. The content of the meeting was also very serious. Liu Wei first analyzed the current international situation.
He held a small stick and pointed at a huge world map while talking.
"It is well known that this island is our territory, but our neighboring country B recently shamelessly said at an international conference that this island belongs to country B.
We have also received reliable information that the army of Country B has been secretly training, and the Supreme Military Commission has also issued instructions that as long as Country B takes any action to invade our territory, we must retaliate.
So the purpose of this meeting is to tell everyone that war may very well break out at any moment, and as soldiers, we must be on the front lines if there is a war.
Our military district is the closest garrison to the island, so we will be the first to bear the brunt of the attack. Therefore, starting today, we will enter a state of readiness and begin large-scale training and exercises.
As long as there is an order from above, we are ready to fight to defend our motherland's territory, do you understand?"
"clear!"
Everyone at the meeting answered in unison.
"But war is no joke. Whenever there is war, there will be casualties. We all have families, so we should comfort our families during this period.
We don't want war, we hate war, but if war is unavoidable, then we soldiers cannot retreat!"
"yes!"
Everyone's answer was extremely firm, but after the meeting, who was completely calm after walking out of the conference room?
"Is the war really coming? It's so sudden."
"Yeah, I've been in the army for so many years and I've never seen a war. It's pretty scary to think about it."
"If we really have to go to the battlefield, can we go back to our hometown to take a look before going? What if we can't come back? Wouldn't that mean we won't be able to see our family for the last time?"
"What are you saying? The war hasn't even started yet. Don't say such unlucky things!"
“…”
Listening to these people talking to each other, Zhan Beiqin felt uneasy. If it were before, he would not be afraid at all, but now he was also afraid.
War waits for no one, it is really imminent. You may be recalled immediately while sleeping soundly one night and rushed to the battlefield.
Ren Rongzheng still has three or four months until her due date. Listening to the tense situation, it seems that no matter what, it will not be possible to delay it until after Ren Rongzheng's due date.
If he really went to the battlefield, if he really died on the battlefield, wouldn't he never even see his three children? Wouldn't his three children become posthumous children?
Wouldn't Ren Rongzheng become a widow? Wouldn't she have to raise three children alone? That must be so hard.
Thinking of this, Zhan Beiqin couldn't help but shudder. It felt really terrible. He prayed in his heart that the war would come later, even after he saw his three children?
Zhan Beiqin was feeling this way, and Jiang Linhai was even more so.
When Jiang's mother was told about the vaccination after returning home, she jumped up immediately.
"What? Are we going to have a war? Isn't this a peaceful time? Why are we going to have a war?"
"Neighboring countries are provoking and blatantly attempting to infringe upon our territory. This is intolerable. Problems that cannot be resolved through negotiation can only be resolved through war."
"That won't do. We still have to negotiate. How can we fight a war now? How many people will die if we start a war? The country can't be like this. Soldiers are also human beings, and the lives of us ordinary people are also lives.
We should talk about what needs to be discussed. We can't just start a war at every turn. Besides, it's just an island. What's so special about it? If that country wants it, why not just give it away? Why fight a war?"
"Mom, please don't say that. It's a mistake. We can't give up an inch of territory. If we give it away so casually, then anyone can come and claim a piece. How can our country maintain its dignity?"
"You can't just save face and not take your soldiers' lives seriously. No, you can't go, Xiaohai, you absolutely can't go. You are the only child of our Jiang family.
Our Jiang family is counting on you. If our Jiang family doesn't have you, we'll be finished. You can't go. You absolutely can't go."
"Mom, I'm a soldier. If I shrink from going to the battlefield, I'll be a deserter. Do you know how severe the punishment for desertion is?
It's not just a matter of taking off my uniform. I worked so hard to become a battalion commander, and I can't let myself be infamous forever for being a deserter."
"So you want to go? Son, you are confused. If you want to desert, then desert. If you don't want to be a soldier, then don't be one. You will die if you go to the battlefield.
If you're gone, what will happen to your dad and I? You can't go. I won't be a soldier anymore. I'll quit now and go back home. You can't go. You just can't go!"
"Okay, Mom, now we are just training and preparing for the battle. It's not certain yet. Let's stop talking and eat."
