Soon, the other people in the training room were also infected by the three of them and raised their hands to agree, with voices rising one after another.
"Yes, Captain, we have to stay as well. If we are needed, we will be there immediately!"
"I want to stay too! I'm not afraid!"
"We will stay here too. We will never be deserters! We will get through this together with everyone else!"
“…”
Seeing everyone so motivated, Meng Anyao got goosebumps all over her body.
She clenched her fists tightly, stood in the corner and glared at Jiang Xiachu, furious, and cursed in a low voice: "Are they crazy? We are going to the front line, what if something goes wrong!?"
Xu Qingqing was also terrified. She hid behind Meng Anyao and echoed, "That's right, she must be crazy. What nonsense is she saying? Doesn't she want to live anymore?"
The more Meng Anyao thought about it, the more she felt wronged and unworthy. She muttered quietly, "What if I can't go back? How could this damn Jiang Xiachu be so good at giving advice..."
Just then, two comrades from the Chuncheng Military Region walked to the front of the rehearsal room.
The two of them looked serious and listened to what everyone had just said. At this moment, their eyes were full of gratitude and respect for everyone.
Li Hongzhi stood tall, looked at them, then saluted in the direction of everyone, raised his voice, and said firmly: "Comrades of the art troupe, we have all seen your courage and responsibility, and we are grateful from the bottom of our hearts!"
Another soldier at the side also spoke up and continued his words: "But please rest assured, comrades, we will never let you take risks unless the situation is absolutely necessary. We know that you are all artists, and fighting on the battlefield is not your specialty. Unless it is a critical moment, we will definitely let you go!"
Hearing this, the stone that had been hanging in Meng Anyao's heart finally fell down slowly.
She breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest gently. Her hunched back finally straightened a little.
Fortunately, as long as she is not allowed to go to the battlefield, she has been pampered since she was a child. She can't even lift a gun barrel, so how can she endure this hardship?
Besides, she is her parents' darling daughter, the little daughter and little princess of the family. How can such a rich girl be treated the same as these ignorant country girls?
Looking at the enthusiastic art soldiers around her, Meng Anyao smacked her lips, then rolled her eyes, and kept complaining in her heart.
These people are just foolish and bold.
Jiang Xiachu stood aside and had long noticed the resentful look coming from behind her, but she had never taken it to heart.
Just now, after feeling the change in gaze, she glanced back.
Meng Anyao was seen with her arms folded, her eyes full of contempt and disdain.
Jiang Xiachu's mouth trembled. He could tell at a glance what Meng Anyao was thinking. He suddenly felt angry and wanted to slap her in the face to wake her up.
It's ok that this person is sarcastic and selfish on a daily basis, but why is he so petty when facing such a national event?
It was obvious that Aunt Su was a very good person, so how come Meng Anyao didn't inherit any of her good qualities?
One look at her cowardly character, and it’s clear that even on the battlefield, she’d be the type of person who would immediately turn into a traitor if anything went wrong.
After the notice was issued, the training was temporarily over. Everyone returned to their dormitories, packed their luggage, and prepared to be on standby at any time.
Once the front line needs them, they will immediately go to support without hesitation.
Only Meng Anyao and Xu Qingqing, after packing their luggage, sat on the bed leisurely, without any tension at all.
Meng Anyao took the kettle handed to her by Xu Qingqing, took a sip of hot water, then smiled with a calm expression.
Since the higher-ups have said so, I'm afraid they won't be sent out to fight easily. In other words, they are still safe now as they stay in the military area.
It will only be their turn if the front line needs support.
Meng Anyao was leaning on the head of the bed, chatting leisurely with Xu Qingqing, but her heart had not been at peace for long when she suddenly heard a sharp alarm.
The alarm was loud, shrill and extremely urgent, like a bomb that exploded in the air for no reason and instantly broke her heart.
It also broke the peaceful atmosphere in the military district that had finally come to an end.
In an instant, the entire military zone quickly entered a state of alert.
The remaining soldiers in the military zone were as nervous as if facing a great enemy, and gathered at their respective assembly points as quickly as possible.
Everyone's faces were tense, and it was obvious how serious the situation was.
Soon, all the personnel in the military region who could participate in the war were urgently gathered together, leaving only a few logistics and civilian personnel.
Hearing the noise outside, Meng Anyao and Xu Qingqing were frightened and their faces turned pale instantly.
Meng Anyao didn't even hold the kettle steady, and it fell to the ground, spilling the warm water all over the floor. She grabbed Xu Qingqing's sleeve and asked worriedly, "What's going on? Why did the alarm sound all of a sudden?"
Xu Qingqing was also very nervous, and her face looked very ugly. She shook her head and said, "I don't know either..."
Before the two of them could figure it out, Du Jing and Teacher Cheng appeared in the dormitory building.
Du Jing looked extremely serious, and said in a deep voice in the corridor: "Everyone come to the dormitory lobby to gather, there is an urgent message!"
After hearing the news, everyone was in a state of high tension. They quickly came out of the dormitory and gathered in the hall.
Du Jing and Teacher Cheng both had more serious expressions than each other. They stood at the front of the hall and looked at everyone calmly.
About two minutes later, Du Jing looked around, glanced at the people in front of him, and asked in a deep voice: "Is everyone here? Look at each other!"
"Report, everyone is here!"
Seeing this, Du Jing continued, "Pay attention, we have just received an emergency notice. The fighting on the front line is tense and the transportation of supplies is urgent. The situation is extremely critical. The superiors require that all combatants and personnel with mobility capabilities must gather on the playground immediately and go to support the front line together!"
"Right now, our army is so short of personnel even to transport supplies. Although we are not asked to go and provide support, I think that since we are all soldiers, we should not just stand by and watch!"
As soon as Du Jing's words came out, everyone looked solemn.
Jiang Xiachu turned to look at Qin Ningqian and Lin Qingli, frowned, took a deep breath, and looked solemn.
There were bursts of hurried footsteps outside. The soldiers of Chuncheng Military Region, having received the notice, were all ready to go, ready to support the front line immediately.
