Ye Chien, who had arranged for the female soldiers to stand guard, thought that since the gala was about to start, she and Xia Jinyuan did not have a single rehearsal, so she came over as usual.
She gently knocked on the half-closed door and heard a voice saying, "Please come in." She pushed the door open and saw Xia Jinyuan packing his backpack. Her heart sank. She locked the door and whispered, "Is there an urgent mission in the unit?"
Every year at the end of the year, there were a lot of sudden emergency missions, especially a few days ago when the US launched another military operation against Iraq. Several missiles fell on the civilian areas, and a total of 1,600 Iraqi civilians died in their sleep. At this time, Iraq was already hell on earth.
Xia Jinyuan turned his head and saw her cold expression. He knew that she had misunderstood. "There's no urgent mission. After the gala, I will be patrolling with the soldiers in the battalion. It will be a little long."
So it's a patrol!
Ye Chien, whose back was tense, was instantly relieved.
As for how long it would be, since he did not say, Ye Chien did not ask again. She did not mention the rehearsal again and stayed behind to give Xia Jinyuan the things she had prepared.
They also had a patrol mission, which started on the 10th and ended on the 16th of the first lunar month. The patrol route was north of the base.
Ye Chien also did not tell Xia Jinyuan that she also had a patrol arrangement. As soon as the necessities were packed, a loud voice came from the door. After Xia Jinyuan said, "Please come in." A soldier pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing that Ye Chien was also there, the soldier did not show any surprise. "Sir, the battalion commander asks you to go to the office. There's something important to discuss!"
"Okay, I'll be right there." When Xia Jinyuan heard this, he did not even tighten his backpack and immediately left with the soldier.
After Ye Chien tightened the backpack, she went back to the cafeteria to watch the female soldiers rehearse.
When he was busy with work, she did not need to bother him with entertainment programs.
The gala started at six o 'clock sharp. The comrades in the cookhouse had been busy since morning.
Basin after basin of dumplings began to be boiled in the steel pot. Basin after basin of dishes began to be stir-fried. The meal began at 5: 30 sharp and ended at 5: 40 sharp. At 5: 55 sharp, all the tables and chairs were lined up in a straight line, waiting for the party to begin.
The army could be precise to the second. At 5: 30 pm, the brightly lit canteen was filled with soldiers. When the soldiers who did not participate in the decoration of the canteen saw this, their tough faces were full of smiles.
They sat down and took off their hoods. They could see that the lips of all the warriors were bleeding from the cold. When they ate, blood flowed out of the wounds and mixed into the food, which was then swallowed by the young warriors.
Their hands, which were holding the chopsticks, were also bleeding. Some of them even had their hands swollen and frostbitten. Although their hands were not good-looking, and their joints were as thick as the hands of a weather-beaten old man, it was this pair of unattractive hands that held up the peace of their motherland, allowing billions of people to sit together happily and enjoy the New Year's Eve dinner, enjoying a peaceful, pleasant, and happy Spring Festival.
At six o 'clock sharp, the gala officially started. Two female soldiers and two male soldiers were the hosts of the gala. Battalion Commander Tian and Political Commissar Tang went on stage one after another to give a speech. Finally, the company commander was represented by Company Commander Zhu to give a speech. Knowing that the soldiers wanted to watch the gala earlier, the three of them gave a speech for ten minutes without wasting any time.
Ye Chien and Xia Jinyuan sat at the front. The two of them were only a fist's length away from each other, so they could still make small gestures in private. After the applause, Xia Jinyuan secretly held Ye Chien's hand and watched the wonderful performance of the soldiers together.
