Chapter 1854 Reminiscence

“There was no trace of their god, even after three months. The government had also allocated funds to develop Lanning. In just half a year, Lanning had developed due to their tourism industry. Their desert attracted a lot of tourists, and the people here slowly became rich again.” “The Lanning army is new here, right?” Jiang Yao wondered why they were set up in such a small place.

“Yes, it was set up not long ago.”

Lu Xingzhi nodded. “So, you can rest assured about the security here now. My mission is to inform them about the previous mission.”

Jiang Yao heaved a sigh of relief. Why would Lu Xingzhi bring her there if that place was still chaotic?

“The person who texted me was the commander of their First Battalion. He asked me about my previous mission.” Lu Xingzhi finally explained everything. “After dinner tomorrow, I’ll take you to the Lanning army base for a tour. Then, you’ll accompany me to the Martyrs’ Mausoleum to see my old comrades.”

Jiang Yao noticed that Lu Xingzhi used the word comrades to describe them, and her heart ached. “Many of them died?”

“Yes, dozens died.”

Lu Xingzhi nodded. “Nearly half of my unit were killed. Then, there were some from other units that I had not seen before.”

There were also local police officers, soldiers, informants, and a few local residents who were rational and kind-hearted enough to help them.

Lu Xingzhi remembered an old couple in their fifties. They were among the few rational people in that small town.

Unfortunately, that couple died at the hands of the higher-ups of that organization. They were used to make an example of the others, and their deaths were extremely painful.

“I told some of them that I was married and had a wife. She was the most beautiful woman in the world. They didn’t believe me and said I should bring my wife to see them after the mission was over, so I brought you here.” Lu Xingzhi’s voice was a little hoarse. However, he was still a little proud. “Most of them were bachelors, yet they still said they wanted to compare you with their wives. Some do have a wife to compete with you.”

Jiang Yao knew that Lu Xingzhi was sad. He was known as Hades Lu in the army. Many people said that he was cold-blooded and heartless, but Jiang Yao knew that he was more passionate than other people.

Just like Brother Zhong, Chen Zhibin, and the others, Lu Xingzhi had a strong desire to protect each of his comrades. Jiang Yao also understood the pain of seeing one’s teammate killed during their mission together. It was like how she saw the helicopter pilot seriously injured back then. That kind of feeling was indescribable. She leaned against Lu Xingzhi and reached out to hug him. “I’ll go with you. Let them see how beautiful I am.” Lu Xingzhi smiled. They would definitely say that Lu Xingzhi had married a similarly shameless wife if they were here. They were a perfect match.

After knowing that Lanning was a place with sad memories for Lu Xingzhi, Jiang Yao also understood the significance of that trip to him. He wanted to take her to a place where he almost lost his life. He reminisced about his comrades, who had fought with him, with her.
