Ancestors, I told you to seduce the villains, not to turn evil.

Chapter 74 It's Too Difficult for Ordinary People to Stand Out

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Liu Boyu composed himself and gave a faint reply.

The door was pushed open, and Gu Siyuan walked in from outside.

Gu Siyuan, he had been on a mission with him, Meng Mingxuan, and Fei Huainan.

When Fei Huainan had the accident, Gu Siyuan was on a mission. After returning and learning about it, he rushed to the regiment and beat Meng Mingxuan up.

This incident had a terrible impact. In order to spite Gu Siyuan, Meng Mingxuan transferred Gu Siyuan to his subordinates during this mission.

Gu Siyuan had no choice but to work under him, suppressing his anger.

Gu Siyuan entered the room with a cold face: "What did you call me here for?"

Liu Boyu then remembered that he had a task for Gu Siyuan, and immediately said, "Tomorrow, take some men to guard the surrounding villages and make sure they are safe."

Gu Siyuan frowned: "I was clearly assigned to Xinghua Village, why did you arrange for me to be assigned to Qingshui Village?"

On the first day after receiving the mission, everyone drew lots to decide which village to protect, and he drew Xinghua Village.

Liu Boyu's face darkened: "This is an order. Are you trying to disobey military orders?"

"Qingshui Village and Xinghua Village are both villages that we must protect; there is no difference between them."

Liu Boyu had no choice. He didn't know that the two important researchers were in Xinghua Village. Now that Lao Ba was going to infiltrate Xinghua Village, he had to create an opportunity for Lao Ba.

How can he create opportunities if he doesn't get Gu Siyuan away?

Gu Siyuan scoffed, "Since Company Commander Liu has said so, I naturally can't refuse."

Qingshui Village and Xinghua Village are located in the south and north of each other, respectively, with a six-hour journey in between. Liu Boyu was clearly deliberately making things difficult for him.

When Gu Siyuan came out of Liu Boyu's office and told his subordinates the news, everyone was in an uproar.

"Why should we get Xinghua Village?"

"Even if it's a change of location, why not notify us earlier instead of waiting until the evening?"

Soldiers are not afraid of hardship or fatigue, but Liu Boyu deliberately tormented them, which made him look bad.

"Company commander, you're being too impulsive."

“You were supposed to join the Flying Eagles team after you came back from the mission, but because you were too impulsive and hit Meng Mingxuan, now you can’t join the Flying Eagles team and you’re being disgusted by Liu Boyu.”

Gu Siyuan snorted coldly: "Change villages if you want, what's there to be afraid of walking at night? Are you afraid of walking at night?"

Of course they're not afraid; they often train at night.

I just can't accept it.

What makes Liu Boyu so special?

How did he become a company commander? He got promoted because of the Meng family.

"Alright, everyone, go back and pack your things. We'll depart for Qingshui Village in thirty minutes."

Gu Siyuan felt frustrated, but there was nothing he could do.

His father, a commander, said that if he caused trouble for the family again, he could forget about ever joining the Flying Eagles again.

That was his dream, and he couldn't give it up.

However, it wasn't a bad deal to beat up Meng Mingxuan after returning from the last mission. He didn't believe that Fei Huainan was a traitor. If he were a traitor, what about all the people he had saved?

What about those enemies we killed?

Liu Boyu sent Gu Siyuan away and then went to find Zhao Hu himself to talk to him about arranging patrols.

Nighttime is the best time. When his men are on patrol, he can let Lao Ba sneak in and infiltrate the cowshed while everyone is not paying attention. That way, his mission will be accomplished.

It wasn't difficult, but once he did it, there was no turning back.

Liu Boyu thought about it all the way, but in the end he couldn't bear to give up everything he had now.

Zhao Hu was surprised that Liu Boyu came in person, and immediately agreed to the patrol.

However, the personnel arrangements did not follow Liu Boyu's wishes.

These are Zhao Hu's original words.

"We've been patrolling for over half a month now, so we've gained experience and know everyone's habits. In order to better complete our mission, our patrol team will remain unchanged."

"Company Commander Liu, just divide the number of people you need to arrange among the patrol groups."

Liu Boyu was unhappy, as it conflicted with his plans.

“We arranged for people to patrol in order to lighten your workload, but this has actually increased it. Why don’t we have our people come tonight?”

Zhao Hu disagreed and directly brought up the minister, saying that if Liu Boyu disagreed, he should go talk to the minister.

What else could Liu Boyu do but agree?

Meanwhile, Fei Huainan led the armed forces to secretly relocate all the people in the cowshed.

Then they had the armed forces personnel change their clothes and wait there.

The armed forces personnel didn't know why they were doing this either.

All they knew was that Fei Huainan had joined their armed forces; he had always been their covert informant.

When the captain brought them here, they were told to follow Fei Huainan's instructions.

Since their own captain said so, they had no choice but to do as he said.

After sending Liu Boyu away, Zhao Hu quickly went to the cowshed.

Seeing that the people in the cowshed had been moved away, and looking at his own brothers, he met their resentful eyes.

One of them couldn't help but complain, "Captain, what are we doing? Can't we take off these clothes?"

The clothes of these people in the cowshed were tattered and smelled bad. They would have to live here for the rest of their lives; it was too much to bear.

Upon seeing Zhao Hu arrive, Fei Huainan immediately said, "Then I'll leave things here to you. I'll head back now."

Xu Manman was timid; she was afraid to sleep when he went out at night.

With time running out and the preparations nearly complete, Fei Huainan was eager to return home.

Zhao Hu immediately nodded: "Brother Fei, you can go back now! Leave this to me."

Fei Huainan handed the matter over to Zhao Hu, then left the cowshed. On his way home, he encountered Liu Boyu, who had just finished assigning patrol duties.

Liu Boyu stopped in his tracks, watching Fei Huainan walk with a limp. His expression was incredibly complicated. This was once a prodigy!

As expected, without a powerful background, even someone as outstanding as Fei Huainan couldn't compete with Meng Mingxuan, who had a powerful background.

One must be pragmatic. If Fei Huainan had sided with Meng Mingxuan back then, he might not be in such a predicament now.

Thinking about it this way, Liu Boyu felt that his choice was not wrong at all.

He did this because he wanted to stay in the military; he loved the military!

Fei Huainan pretended not to see Liu Boyu and walked past him. Liu Boyu suddenly spoke up: "Huainan, do you regret it?"

When Meng Mingxuan's identity was discovered by Fei Huainan, he panicked. Knowing Fei Huainan's excellence, he invited Fei Huainan to keep it a secret, so that the Meng family would become Fei Huainan's biggest backer in the future.

Unfortunately, Fei Huainan refused.

Otherwise, Fei Huainan would still be the most favored commander of the Flying Eagles team, instead of being a lame old farmer in Xinghua Village.

Liu Boyu thought that Fei Huainan must be regretting it.

Fei Huainan didn't even stop walking. There was nothing to say to two people with incompatible values.

Liu Boyu seemed to be enraged. He turned around and looked at Fei Huainan's back.

“Huainan, we are all children from rural areas. You should understand the helplessness of rural children even more. It’s so hard for us to climb up the social ladder.”

"I was forced into what happened back then."

These words had been weighing on Liu Boyu's mind for a long time; he had wanted to say them for a long time.

Previously, Fei Huainan was in a high position, even higher than Meng Mingxuan, so his words sounded like a joke.

Things are different now. Fei Huainan ultimately failed, and his example proves once again how incredibly difficult it is for ordinary people to rise above their circumstances!
