The first night Xu Yan arrived at the regiment headquarters, he went to bed early, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter how much he tossed and turned.

He knew that it was already the fourteenth year of the Huali calendar. According to the history he knew, a major event would happen to the Dongning Army this year, which would directly lead to a sharp decline in the Dongning Army's strength, and it could be said that it would fall apart.

But he could do nothing. He could only stay here as a small deputy commander. He didn't know where to go next. He wanted to tell the commander of the corps, the young marshal, or the general? But reason told him not to do that.

They were not sure whether they believed what he said or not, not to mention that he knew clearly that he could not forcibly change history. Although he still could not fully understand what was going on with the time travel, from his understanding, he naturally felt that he could not bear to think about the consequences of interfering with the course of history without authorization.

What he needs to do now is to make himself strong as quickly as possible, so strong that history will change for him naturally, instead of him arbitrarily changing history. Although the meanings seem similar, there are actually big differences if you think about it carefully.

Suddenly, his head started to hurt again! He had never told anyone about this. Since he woke up, every time he thought about the past for a long time, thinking about the memories before the time travel, he would have a splitting headache. Several times, he almost fainted from the pain.

But every time after he recovered to normal, he felt that there would be a blank space in his brain, and a vague feeling would strangely emerge in his mind. He also found that as the number of pains increased, the vague and chaotic space continued to expand!

It is really difficult for Xu Yan to express that feeling in words. If there is any, it might be a mixture of pain and happiness!

Today, Xu Yan really had no idea about his future. A feeling of frustration, accompanied by a splitting headache, surged into his heart. The stubborn Xu Yan somehow got stuck in a dead end and couldn't stop. Like a survivor looking for land in the deep ocean, he kept swimming in that unknown chaotic space!

As expected, he fainted again.

After an unknown amount of time, he was awakened by a burst of loud shouting. He slowly opened his eyes and found an anxious face looking at him.

This face is so beautiful, why does it look so familiar? Suddenly he yelled and sat up!

"Doctor Hu? Why is it you?" Xu Yan shouted nervously.

That’s right, the person standing in front of me is Dr. Hu, Hu Ruoxue!

Hu Ruoxue stood calmly in front of Xu Yan's bed and said calmly, "Why? Are you not welcome?"

"No, no, of course you're welcome. I just didn't expect you to come here. It's a surprise!" Xu Yan didn't know why he couldn't even speak clearly when he saw Hu Ruoxue.

"Get up quickly, it's almost noon."

Hearing this, Xu Yan looked outside and saw Zhao Wenyu standing at the door with an anxious look on his face. Zhao Wenyu looked at Xu Yan and whispered to him, "Today, the young marshal suddenly inspected the troops in Heilongjiang Province. Today, he came to our 344th Regiment to take a break. I heard that you are the deputy commander here, so I wanted to meet you. But no matter how I called you, the door wouldn't open. I was afraid that you might have an accident at this time, so this Doctor Hu asked us to break the door open."

So that's how it is. Xu Yan then remembered that he had a splitting headache last night and then fainted from the pain.

Doctor Hu said, "There are shrapnel left in your head. It cannot be removed with current medical technology. You must rest well in the future and avoid overusing your brain. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous."

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted outside the door: "Er Gouzi? Er Gouzi? Er Gouzi, why the hell don't you come to see me?"

Before he finished speaking, someone came in, and Xu Yan saw that it was the young marshal!

Xu Yan quickly got out of bed, stood up, straightened his clothes, stood at attention and shouted: "Report to the young commander, Xu Yan, deputy commander of the 344th Regiment of the newly formed 9th Brigade of the 145th Division of the Dongning Army, reports to you!"

"Haha, I haven't seen you for a few months and you're now the deputy head of the regiment. I heard from Commander Wu that you won a great victory and wiped out a group of bandits without any effort!"

"I was just lucky. It was all thanks to Governor Wu's cultivation." Xu Yan replied loudly.

"Haha, you have learned to be humble. Don't you think you are a man of new abilities? Why didn't I realize you have this ability before? It seems that General Wu knows how to appoint the right people to the right positions! Commander Guo and I have overlooked your talent." The young marshal said with a smile.

"Young Marshal, please don't make fun of me. I know my own worth and I can't show off my abilities!" Xu Yan said with his head down.

"I will be reviewing the Black Province army this time, so I will need to stay for some time. You will be responsible for my outer defense here. I trust you."

Xu Yan replied loudly: "I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

The young marshal walked out after he finished speaking. He still had a lot of official business to attend to and many people to meet.

Hu Ruoxue was accompanying the young marshal as his health doctor. Before leaving the room, she suddenly turned to Xu Yan and said, "Thank you for taking care of our family affairs. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what would have happened. Because our family affairs have also implicated you, forcing you to hide here."

After Hu Ruoxue finished speaking, her face turned red, as if she was making a particularly difficult decision, and then she said, "I will repay you!" After saying that, she ran out without looking back.

Xu Yan was confused and didn't know what was going on.

"It seems this girl is interested in you!" Zhao Wenyu, who was still standing in the room, said with a smile.

Xu Yan looked at him and said slowly, "Any news?"

Hearing Xu Yan's question, Zhao Wenyu immediately put on a serious expression: "My secret sentry in Tianbao Town sent me a message last night, saying that Wu Tiankui and Captain Yoshida of the Kwantung Army met with a man from Fengtian last night. He didn't have any specific information, but he saw Wu Tiankui accept the man's 20 gold bars, so it must not be a simple matter."

Back when he was in Jiming Mountain, Zhao Wenyu was good at building his own intelligence secret sentry system. He even had his own secret sentry as far away as Bincheng. He had sources of all kinds of mixed information. This was exactly why Xu Yan valued him. In this era when information was not well developed, it was really important to have a reliable and fast source of information.

"Oh? You're from Fengtian? You met with the Kwantung Army. That shouldn't be a good thing. Maybe they're targeting me!" Xu Yan said coldly.

"My analysis is the same. Why did they come to find Wu Tiankui after you took office instead of earlier or later? It's such a coincidence. Besides, the fact that you are still alive is no secret. The Japanese must know it too!" said Zhao Wenyu.

"Yes, there is a high probability that all coincidences in the world are inevitably connected. Let's be more careful. Let your people collect more information in this regard. The young marshal is still here, so don't cause any trouble." After Xu Yan put on his clothes, he walked out the door.
