Chapter 129 Should I Call Sister-in-law?
"You fought too aggressively this time, completely disregarding the ever-changing situation on the battlefield. If there's even one misstep, all the brothers in your battalion will be killed!"
"Our 233rd Regiment must be more calm and steady in our work from now on. Stop being so reckless!"
After hearing the criticism from the team leader, the smile on Wang Qi's face froze. He lowered his head with a look of shame, knowing that he was indeed a little impulsive this time.
He nodded and immediately saluted the commander, "Yes, Commander."
"From now on, I will be more calm and composed on the battlefield. I will fight bravely while also considering the overall situation. I will never let the commander down again, nor will I let my brothers fall into danger due to my recklessness."
Seeing Wang Qi's sincere expression, the regiment commander's expression softened slightly. He patted Wang Qi on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Wang Qi, I know you fight bravely and are determined to lead your brothers to victory. This is a good thing."
"But on this battlefield, every decision and every charge concerns the lives of many brothers. We can't just rely on passion."
Wang Qi pursed his lips and nodded vigorously. "Captain, I'll remember this. I really wasn't thoughtful enough this time. I will reflect on it."
"Well, I'm glad you understand. Although we won this time, it also serves as a wake-up call for us."
"The next battle will only be more difficult. The enemy our 233rd Regiment will face will not be weaker than this advance force. We must keep a clear head at all times." As the regimental commander spoke, he glanced at the soldiers around him who had just experienced the battle, his eyes full of concern and solemnity.
"Yes, Captain! After I go back, I will summarize the experience and lessons of this battle with my brothers, so that everyone can clearly understand the problems and never make the same mistakes again." Wang Qi straightened his back and said with a firm look.
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. Comfort the brothers. Everyone has fought very hard this time. Let's rest for a while before setting off again." The regiment commander waved his hand, indicating that Wang Qi could leave.
Wang Qi walked towards where Nan Qiao was with great joy, his mind still replaying his brave performance in today's battle.
Thinking about the victory he had just won, he was looking forward to hearing a few words of praise from Nan Qiao. That would definitely feel wonderful.
After a while, Wang Qi saw Nan Qiao sitting aside drinking water to restore his strength. A smile immediately appeared on his face and he walked over with big strides.
Before he could even stand still, he couldn't wait to speak: "Qiaoqiao, did you see how I looked on the battlefield today? Wasn't I very impressive?"
Nan Qiao didn't even raise his head, still concentrating on drinking water. After finishing the drink, he just replied coldly: "Huh, what's so great about you?"
When Wang Qi heard this, he was stunned and wondered why this was different from what he expected.
He came forward, scratched his head, and continued, "Why isn't it impressive? I led my brothers into battle and utterly routed the bird army's advance guard."
At this moment, Nan Qiao suddenly raised his head, his eyes revealing a hint of anger. He stared straight at Wang Qi and asked, "Wang Qi, what are you talking about? Do you know how dangerous the battle just now was?"
"I clearly saw the bullet flying towards me, and you actually stood in front of me all of a sudden. Do you want to die?"
Nan Qiao has always been gentle and rarely gets angry like he is now.
Wang Qi was somewhat bewildered by her sudden scolding and stammered as he explained, "I...I just did it subconsciously. I didn't have time to think too much at the time. I just wanted to make sure you didn't get hurt."
"Subconsciously? You're the battalion commander now. You're responsible for not only your own safety, but also the lives of so many brothers in the battalion! You have to command everyone in battle. If something happens to you, what will happen to the brothers in this battalion?"
"You should value your life more instead of being so reckless as to block the bullet for me!" Nan Qiao became more and more excited as he spoke, his face slightly flushed with anger.
As Wang Qi listened to Nan Qiao's lecture, the smile on his expectant face gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a look of shame.
He lowered his head and said softly, "I...I know I was wrong. I really didn't think too much about it at the time. I just thought that I couldn't let you get hurt under my nose."
"From now on...I will be more careful and won't be so impulsive again."
"Don't be angry, okay?"
Nan Qiao looked at Wang Qi's expression of admitting his fault, and her anger subsided a little. She softened her tone and said, "You really need to be more careful in the future. Don't just think about being a hero. Think more about the overall situation and your brothers."
"You're lucky this time. If something bad happens, what will you do to everyone else?"
Wang Qi nodded vigorously and said seriously, "Well, I remember it, Qiaoqiao, thank you for reminding me. I will definitely change it in the future."
He tilted his head and leaned closer to Nan Qiao, smiling and saying, "Not angry anymore, huh?"
Nan Qiao was no longer angry, but when Wang Qi came closer with a pitiful look, she couldn't help but curl her lips and pushed him away in annoyance.
Seeing Nan Qiao laugh, Wang Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief and laughed too.
Wang Qi was so scolded by Nan Qiao that he stood there obediently. The other soldiers in the camp gathered around him with gossiping looks, and there was a hint of teasing in their eyes.
An old soldier was the first to speak up, laughing: "Look at our battalion commander. When he trains us on weekdays, he's so serious. With a stern face and a glance, he scares us so much that we dare not even breathe."
"Now, in front of Qiao Qiao, he's like a tamed lion, very obedient."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding soldiers burst into laughter and nodded in agreement.
"That's right, the battalion commander is always so majestic and imposing, but I didn't expect him to lose that domineering aura when he's here with Qiao Qiao."
"Haha, the contrast is too big, Battalion Commander."
A group of people were talking at the same time, making Wang Qi's face turn red and white. He wanted to refute them, but he felt that it seemed to be the case, so he could only stand there awkwardly.
At this time, a new soldier blinked his eyes, looked at Wang Qi and Nan Qiao with curiosity, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Then...then should we call her Sister Qiaoqiao?"
As soon as the new recruit finished speaking, the surroundings instantly became quiet. The soldiers all looked at Wang Qi and Nan Qiao, their eyes full of anticipation, as if they were waiting to see how they would respond.
Wang Qi's face suddenly turned red. He secretly glanced at Nan Qiao and saw that Nan Qiao was also stunned.
Her cheeks flushed slightly and she frowned, "Don't talk nonsense."
