Chapter 22: Xixi Arrived

  "Chief, may I ask a question?" Chengfeng thought of Old Village Chief.

  "What did you say just now?" asked the leader in front of him.

  "Commander, after we retake Davang this time, we won't withdraw again, will we?" Cheng Feng asked.

  The "beep" of the intercom fell silent for a moment, and after a few seconds, the voice came through again.

  "This is a matter of national top secrecy, I'm not at liberty to answer. If that's all, then so be it."

  "Received, received, thank you leader, transmission ended." After hearing the "beep", Cheng Feng also released the transmitter.

  After finishing the report, Cheng Feng walked to Lin Yi and the old village chief, telling the old village chief that the leader in charge knew that there were pregnant women giving birth here and was very anxious, and had already dispatched the best female military doctor and nurse, they would arrive soon. Now please ask the old village chief to take Li Jun to the middle-aged person's home first, according to what was discussed earlier, to check on the pregnant woman through the window curtain and stabilize her emotions.

  Behind the village, there is a vast open space. The three rows have transformed this empty land into an airborne landing field in a very short period of time. They also formed a defensive zone at several commanding heights nearby and dispatched sentries and warning radars. Everything is now ready, just waiting for the arrival of supplies transported by helicopters from the front command.

  Before long, the sky, in Chengfeng's earpiece came "drip drip drip" sound, Chengfeng knew this was an alarm, he quickly opened the display on his chest, on which Chengfeng saw two small black dots flying towards their airborne deployment field. In the upper right corner of the screen, the two small black dots kept changing color between black and green, Chengfeng knew that these were his helicopters.

  As the sound of "whooshing" propellers faded away, two large military transport helicopters landed at the designated location. Cheng Feng waved his hand and the soldiers from the third squad and machine gun squad ran to the side of the helicopter in sequence, opened the cabin door, and began unloading supplies. Just as Cheng Feng was directing a few soldiers from the third squad who were bent over unloading goods from Helicopter No. 1, he suddenly felt something poking at his waist - two fingers.

  This feeling is so familiar, not one finger, but two fingers, and this old action, could it be her? Cheng Feng gently put down the things in his hand, suddenly turned his head, and then stretched out his right hand to grab the left hand of the person behind him. The person behind him, who was wearing a bulletproof helmet, didn't have time to dodge, and was caught by Cheng Feng's left hand in an instant.

  "Let go of me, you're hurting me!" a female soldier shouted.

  "I knew it was you, Yang Qianqian, you little rascal, how old are you and still playing this kind of game?"

  "Let go, let go", the person behind said, and then his right hand hit Cheng Feng's chest.

  "It's really you, Qianqian" Cheng Feng let go of his right hand after taking a clear look at the person who came.

  "You're so dead, Wind! What's with the huge strength? You've made my hand hurt!" Yang Qianqian, a female soldier, said while rubbing the spot where Wind had grabbed her with her right hand.

  "Sorry, Qianqian, I knew it was you, just wanted to scare you a bit, but used too much force, sorry. Chengfeng said and gave Yang Qianqian a salute with a 'whoosh' sound."

  "Let me introduce you, this is who came with me, our hospital nurse, Li Yan," Yang Qianqian said, pointing to the other female soldier standing beside her.

  "Hello Commander, I'm Li Yan, reporting for duty," said the female soldier beside Yang Qianqian, extending her right hand.

  "Hello, Li Yan, welcome, welcome," said Cheng, extending his hand and shaking Li Yan's hand.

  "Alright, alright, Cheng Feng, quickly tell me where that Tibetan sister is. I'll go and help her give birth, then you'll see how I deal with you." Seeing Cheng Feng like this, Yang Qianqian said with a smile.

  "Lin Yi, Lin Yi!" echoed loudly in the wind.

  "Commander Lin, I'm here." Lin Yi ran over from the direction of machine number two, panting heavily as he replied.

  "This is Dr. Yang Jun who has been assigned here before, hurry up and bring Nurse Li with you, take the necessary medicine to Lao Xiang's home," Cheng Feng ordered.

  "Let's go" Lin Yi turned his head and gave a salute to Yang Qianqian and Li Yan. "Hello Dr. Yang, Nurse Li, let's go" He said as he took over Yang Qianqian's medical bag and quickly ran towards the old village with Yang Qianqian and Li Yan.

  "Hey, you know this girl? She's quite pretty." Before he knew it, Old Li had quietly appeared beside Cheng Feng again.

  "We knew each other since we were kids growing up in the same compound, her name is Yang Qianqian, she's a graduate of the Military Medical University, it's been years since we last saw each other, didn't expect the forward command to send her here" Cheng Feng replied.

  "Yang Qianqian, what a nice name! Is she that one of yours?" Old Li asked with ill intentions.

  "What's that? Are you referring to a girlfriend? Ha, currently not yet, but in the future, I don't know," Cheng Feng replied.

  "Haha, you'd better hold on tight, such a beautiful girl, if you don't want her, others won't wait, if I were Old Li and hadn't gotten married..."

  "Go, go, go! Hurry up and get the supplies, stop talking nonsense, don't make me lose my temper!" Cheng Feng interrupted Old Li, urging him to hurry up and get the supplies. It was clear that Cheng Feng saw Yang Zhenzhen very happy.

  "Heh heh, okay platoon leader, I'm going to get some supplies now. And that nurse isn't bad either," said Old Li with a wink, before running off in a flash.

  The supplies provided by the advance team were abundant, not only did they provide the necessities for Cheng Feng and his men, but also filled the remaining space with medicines, food, several TVs and satellite receivers. Moreover, they even sent a male and female Tibetan translator to accompany them. Seeing this, Cheng Feng couldn't help but admire the foresight of these old comrades, who didn't forget about political education even in the midst of battle.

  But thinking about it, this is also good. Through our TV program, villagers can fully understand us and spread the word to other villages in the region, which is more persuasive than us going from village to village doing work.

  It's also time for these two translation factions to be settled, otherwise Lin Yi will be exhausted from running around here and there. Besides, Lin Yi isn't meant for this kind of work. With that thought, Cheng Feng couldn't help but recall the image of Lin Yi being called from one end of the village to the other, constantly on the run.

  It wasn't long before the supplies were all downloaded, and the helicopter took off again with a "whooshing" sound of its rotor blades. It quickly disappeared into the night sky. As Feng watched the helicopter go away, he let out a sigh of relief. But just then, the earpiece crackled to life again, and Feng opened the transmitter once more to hear the voice of the battalion commander.

  "Wind, wind, hear and respond."

  "Cheng Feng, I heard you, Commander wants to talk." Cheng Feng replied.

  "We have just received a message from the army group's advance headquarters, giving your entire 8th company a major merit award. After the battle, we will report to the Central Military Commission for approval." The battalion commander said excitedly.

  "You guys are doing great, now the whole camp is benefiting from it. My command center has already advanced to Area 2, which is very close to you. When you have time, come with Lin Yi, and also, your old man asked me to pass on his greetings, saying you're doing a good job."

  "Thank you, Commander. After I arrange the formation, if nothing happens, Lin Yi and I will return to the camp to report. Lin Yi is a good kid, he did a great job today, I'll ask for credit for him." Cheng Feng replied.

  "Alright, this kid's matter has already reached the regimental headquarters, and that chip he got was even commended by the military front command. The rear military units have already started deciphering it, hoping to find a way to deal with them soon." The regiment commander continued saying.

  "Received, Commander. If there's nothing else, I'll go inspect the position."

  "Go ahead, go ahead. Remember to report to the battalion headquarters with Lin Yi when you have time." The battalion commander ended the call.
