Chapter 47 The Dawn General
“I found a soldier I used to lead, named Li Weiguo. He is currently serving in the logistics department of the Seventh War Zone. He should know about your father’s situation.”

Wang Zhengguo tapped a few times on the wristwatch's communication interface, and soon, the third communication was also established, appearing before Lin Ye and the other two.

A young soldier in military uniform with a resolute face appeared in the virtual projection screen.

"Are you a family member of Comrade Lin Tao?"

"I am Li Weiguo."

"Please rest assured, Comrade Lin Tao is a hero! If it weren't for his desperate efforts to repair three heavy power armors early this morning, several of our companies would probably have been wiped out!"

“Our superiors took him very seriously and immediately sent him to the military general hospital in our war zone, using the best medical resources. The surgery was completed by noon, and he… should have just woken up.”

"Don't worry, I'll take you to see him right away. I'll try my best to get your family to have a proper conversation."

They heard that Lin Tao was safe and received immediate medical attention.

Li Wan and Lin Wei wept with joy.

Lin Ye's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

The images on the light screen began to move, and Li Weiguo seemed to be walking quickly in a heavily guarded medical area. Finally, he pushed open the door to a special-grade ward with dedicated care.

Inside the ward, an elderly man with two bars and three stars on his shoulders, exuding a profound and imposing aura, sat in front of the hospital bed.

When the old man saw Li Weiguo suddenly enter, he frowned and hissed in a low voice, "Who let you in!"

Li Weiguo strode forward and gave the old man a standard military salute.

"Report! Chief of Staff Gao, these are Comrade Lin Tao's family members. They wish to meet with Comrade Lin Tao!"

Upon hearing this, the colonel nodded, quickly stepped aside, took the communication wristwatch handed to him by Li Weiguo, and placed it in front of the hospital bed.

The light screen flickered for a moment, then finally stabilized.

A familiar yet pale face appeared in the picture.

At this moment, Lin Tao was wearing a hospital gown, lying on the bed with an IV drip in his right hand, and the beeping of the vital signs monitor could be heard beside him.

"dad!"

The moment Lin Ye saw his father, his eyes instantly reddened.

"Dad!" Lin Wei rushed to the screen, tears streaming down her face.

Li Wan covered her mouth, standing behind the two children, her vision already blurred by tears.

Lin Tao forced a weak smile onto his bloodless face as he looked at his family on the screen, his voice hoarse.

"I'm fine... I'm sorry to have worried you."

However, at that moment, Lin Ye's gaze fell on Lin Tao's right leg, which was covered by the blanket.

It's so empty there!
Lin Ye's gaze suddenly sharpened.

"Dad, your leg!"

Lin Tao's smile froze, a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

At that moment, the colonel's calm voice rang out.

"You must be Comrade Lin Tao's family?"

"I am Gao Jianjun, Chief of Staff of the Logistics Battalion of the Seventh War Zone."

"In the early hours of this morning, Comrade Lin Tao risked his life to protect the equipment, but his right leg was unfortunately injured by the Chiseltooth Clan. In order to prevent the spread of the toxin, we had no choice but to... perform an amputation."

"We are currently doing everything we can to treat him. Once he has recovered, Comrade Lin Tao will be able to be transferred back to Dongjiang City and enjoy the highest level of treatment for disabled veterans!"

"Don't worry, I will personally apply to my superiors regarding merits and benefits, and I will definitely strive to get the best for him!"

Hearing that their father could return, Li Wan and Lin Wei felt a mix of emotions.

This was their greatest wish, but the price was that their father lost a leg.

However, Lin Tao, lying on his hospital bed, struggled to sit up, and his eyes, which had been dimmed by blood loss, regained their light.

He looked at Gao Jianjun, his eyes reddening, and cried out hoarsely, "Chief of Staff Gao... I... I won't go back!"

"I'm the only one who's truly familiar with the core circuits and key repair methods of those Thunder series heavy armored mechs. There's no way I can teach a newcomer in a short time!"

"And... today, my life was saved by Platoon Leader Zhang!"

"I can't let him down! Now that I'm on the battlefield, I'm a combatant too!"

"I will never be a deserter!"

His words were powerful and moving, touching Gao Jianjun and Li Weiguo who were present, as well as Wang Zhengguo and Chen Meng who were far away in Dongjiang City!
Lin Ye felt a surge of heat rush to his head, as if a raging fire was burning in his chest.

Then, Lin Tao turned his gaze to the light screen and looked at his wife, his face filled with tenderness and guilt.

"Awan...take good care of Xiaoye and Xiaowei. Wait for me...wait for me to train a few apprentices who can stand on their own before I return home in glory!"

Ultimately, Lin Tao ended the call himself; he didn't want his family to see his vulnerable side. The principal's office was deathly silent.

Wang Zhengguo and Chen Meng both looked serious. Finally, Chen Meng let out a heavy sigh and said with emotion, "Lin Ye, your father is a real man, and even more so, a hero!"

"You should respect his choice!"

……

In the afternoon, Lin Ye returned to school again.

He went directly to Chen Meng.

Chen Meng looked at the boy in front of him; the boy's eyes no longer held the laziness and ease they once had.

Instead, there is a settled, abyssal tranquility.

Seeing his appearance, Chen Meng felt a little relieved.

Her appreciation for Lin Ye's character deepened even further.

"The place where your father is now is the war zone general hospital. There are a large number of logistics personnel and medical staff there. It is considered the safest place in the entire war zone. It is heavily guarded. Even if the war zone is to fall, it will be the last one."

"Our army values ​​every wounded veteran. I believe your father will receive the best possible treatment!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye calmly asked, "Teacher, is there any way to help my father's legs grow back?"

Lin Ye didn't want his father to be left with a lifelong disability.

Chen Meng was taken aback, then sighed: "Yes, but almost all of them are very difficult to do."

"First, one must break through to the fifth realm of martial arts, which will lead to a leap in one's life level, making limb regeneration a given."

"Then there are some extremely rare spiritual treasures that can only be produced from dangerous celestial rifts, which have this effect of limb regeneration."

"But this kind of thing can no longer be measured in money."

"We definitely don't have that in Dongjiang."

"However, there is one place where you might be able to get it if you can get in and become the best one!"

“Every year, the Ninghai Provincial Military Headquarters takes the lead in selecting a group of the most talented students from the province’s top military high schools to form the Qiming General Training Camp.”

"That's the place that truly cultivates future generals and top-tier combat forces for the Great Xia!"

"As long as you are selected and stand out in the training camp to become the top graduate of that year..."

"You will then be qualified to utilize the talent development resources of the entire province and directly select the spiritual treasures you need from Ninghai Province's reserves!"

A luminary star!

Lin Ye silently engraved these four words into his mind!
Then, Chen Meng took out the slightly old-fashioned booklet, sealed with a special material, from his locker.

It was the book that was originally intended to motivate Lin Ye and help him win first place in the whole school, "The Five Qi Guiding Technique".

"Take it."

Lin Ye instinctively wanted to refuse.

Chen Meng, however, shoved the martial arts manual into his arms, his eyes sharp as an eagle's.

"I'm not pitying you, much less giving you charity!"

"I believe in you, I believe you can definitely get first place in the whole school!"

"Practice it now, and feel free to ask me anytime if you don't understand anything!"

"If you want to participate in the Qiming General Training Camp and have the ability to slaughter all the alien races of Tianyuan, then stop fucking being coy here!"

Chen Meng's voice rang in Lin Ye's ears like a thunderclap.

"You don't have much time left!"

"The qualifications for selecting the Qiming Generals are extremely stringent!"

"You must get first place in the next citywide mock exam! That's just the bare minimum!"

"In the entire Ninghai Province, only two slots are allocated to our Dongjiang City each year. In the worst-case scenario, we get none!"

"Only if you achieve an undisputed first place and surpass all previous years' data, as well as the top talents from other provinces and cities, will you have a chance to be selected!"

Time waits for no one!

"You only have three months!"

 Regarding the update issue, the author has a lot of drafts saved up, but it's currently the new book release period, so there's no way around it. I have to update 4 words a day to complete the new book's release process. I will definitely update more frequently after the book is released!
  To answer everyone's guesses in the book review section, I am indeed an old man, hahaha. After failing in the stock market and having children, the pressure was too much, so I came back to writing books.

  If you see anything wrong, please point it out. I will stand at attention and take the blame. My main point is to listen to advice and try my best to correct my mistakes.

  Then there's the update schedule. Do you guys think it's better to update once in the morning and once at night as it is now, or should I update two chapters directly at midnight?

  Finally, I humbly request all readers to continue reading. If possible, I would also appreciate a few monthly tickets. Thank you!
