Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law -
Chapter 903 - Chapter 903 Chapter 902 Threat
Chapter 903: Chapter 902 Threat Chapter 903: Chapter 902 Threat Tu Cheng had a face full of agreement, giving Ge Jincheng a confirming look, “Why not teach a lesson? Major General Huo had been deployed to and from the Southeast Military Region three times, and two of those times were for this very reason. Eventually, Elder Leader Huo had no choice, and since his methods, though brutal and bloody, were highly effective, he finally just let him be.”
Everyone fell silent, their faces etched with complexity.
All of them were seasoned revolutionaries, and they certainly had discernment. Moreover, over the years, although the military’s strength had been steadily increasing, the soldiers’ fervor was nothing like that of the older generation.
Why?
Because there was no bloodshed, no threat to life anymore.
This indeed was the concern that worried every elder leader the most.
Huo Beijiang’s methods were too bold, shocking to hear but also tremendously effective. No wonder in recent years, the Southeast Military Region’s strength had visibly outpaced other military districts. When Huo Beijiang was to be reassigned to the Northern Military District, several elder leaders from the Southeast Military Region were adamantly unwilling to let him go.
In the end, it was only when Elder Leader Huo could no longer hold out that he was released.
In an eerie silence, Xi Liqun broke the quiet, curiously asking, “Captain Tu, you just mentioned three deployments, what was the reason for the other one?”
“Oh! There was another incident,” Tu Cheng said with a calm face, in a casual tone, “It was during an overseas mission, attempting to extract a Chinese engineering team caught in the crossfire. He led the Snow Eagle Team and openly defied orders. Although he saved everyone, he and his men ended up trapped in a civil war in another country, barely making it back alive.”
Everyone was stunned, although they had known Major General Huo from the 36th Division had many ‘glorious deeds’, they hadn’t expected them to be so numerous and terrifying.
“Barely making it back alive?” Xi Liqun was deeply distressed, this was his most trusted general!
He sighed with relief, “Fortunately! Thankfully, he came back safe.” Otherwise, where would he find another such capable soldier?
The others also echoed in agreement, Huo Beijiang’s open defiance was indeed unforgivable, but it was well-intentioned. They were not old fogies, and punishment was sufficient.
Upon hearing Xi Liqun’s words, Tu Cheng revealed a strange smile.
“Chief Xi, I think you’ve misunderstood,”
While Tu Cheng was speaking, the always silent Tu Lou, who had been following him, could no longer bear it and sneakily tugged at his brother’s sleeve, signaling him to show some restraint. These dark histories were definitely not something Bei Jiang would want to spread.
If everyone knew about them, then they would be guarded against him in future maneuvers.
Tu Cheng was infuriated with his brother’s overly sympathetic nature toward the Great Devil, who had treated them so vilely, yet he still defended him, which was truly infuriating.
The brother asked him not to speak, but he insisted on speaking.
Song Jingxiong observed the private gestures between the two brothers but did not point them out, instead asking with interest, “Tu Cheng, what do you mean by misunderstanding?”
“Right! Didn’t you say he barely made it back alive?”
“How was there a misunderstanding?”
“Was the casualty rate very high?”
In recent years, many of the major international missions had been carried out more frequently by the Southeast Military Region. However, starting from this year, the control had been taken back by the Ministry of National Defense, and any future missions should probably be handled by the Northern Military District.
Everyone was eagerly preparing for a major action soon, and gathering experience now was beneficial.
“It wasn’t him who barely survived; it was the war-torn small country that was barely surviving. He and his men were trapped in the conflict zone for three months, and he managed to pull together an armed force.” There was still one thing Tu Cheng left unsaid.
