Gu Dadong might have contacted Li Yan when he heard that Gu Feng was going to visit the troops, Li Yan immediately drove over in his Warrior vehicle.

"Welcome, former king of the military, to guide our work in the Eastern Combat Zone!"

After jumping out of the car, Li Yan saluted and grinned.

"Stop it," Gu Feng wanted to kick him. "It’s not that I want to go, she wants to experience it."

Seeing Lin Yue following behind Gu Feng, Li Yan immediately beamed, "Hello, Mrs. Officer!"

Lin Yue, feeling embarrassed, asked, "Can I go?"

"You can go. With Mr. Gu’s paperwork, you can enter as a technical advisor, no problem at all," explained Li Yan.

He had now transitioned behind the scenes, specifically leading the special forces training work at the Fourth Military Region.

The Fourth Military Region was also where Gu Feng had served, under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Combat Zone.

Currently, the domestic ranking of combat zones, regardless of order, includes the East, South, West, and North Zones.

Each combat zone is composed of two military regions.

For example, the Third and Fourth Military Regions are part of the Eastern Combat Zone.

Since the previous Dragon Thorn squadron disbanded, the work of restructuring Dragon Thorn over these three years has been in full swing. Li Yan’s job was to cultivate special forces personnel in the Fourth Military Region and then send them to the Eastern Combat Zone.

Furthermore, the combat zone would establish a special combat squadron to compete with the other three major combat zones, and only after that would they consider recruiting for the national team based on your comprehensive performance: Dragon Thorn!

Possibly because of the predecessor, Dragon Thorn’s former captain Gu Feng’s outstanding performance, the special training work in the Fourth Military Region had been receiving a lot of attention in the past three years, with everyone hoping for another soldier of Gu Feng’s caliber.

Unfortunately, in those three years, the talents Li Yan provided to the combat zone had been repeatedly thwarted during selections.

That had significantly increased his pressure.

This was why he was desperately eager for Gu Feng to visit the military region and provide some guidance.

With existing combat power right there, it was foolish not to use it.

In the current climate of all major combat zones seeking talent and open policies for inner competition, wouldn’t it be reasonable to invite a former military king to come and give a bit of guidance?

The Fourth Military Region was located in a remote area north of Beijing.

On the way, Li Yan drove the car, chatting with Gu Feng in the front passenger seat, "You really don’t know how much pressure I’ve been under these past two years. This fourth year is the official selection for the new Dragon Thorn, but you know? The strongest lineup from our Fourth Military Region and the Third Military Region, after countless simulated battles against the representatives from the other three regions, we’re always at the bottom."

Gu Feng said, "Doesn’t the Third Military Region also share the responsibility? Why should you bear it all alone?"

Li Yan gave a bitter smile, "Who let our Fourth Military Region be a former star region? The previous Dragon Thorn squadron had three members from our region, not to mention you, who is arguably the combat king of recent years. Naturally, everyone has high hopes for my region."

"You were a combat king?" Lin Yue listened to Li Yan complimenting Gu Feng and, with sparkling eyes, looked at Gu Feng and asked with a smile, "Does that mean you’re very powerful?"

"Somewhat," Gu Feng replied with an embarrassed smile.

Li Yan said, "Brother Feng was indeed fierce before. We managed to rank so high internationally, all thanks to him leading us through countless explosive and beheading operations."

Lin Yue became even more curious as she had almost never seen Gu Feng display his strength.

Li Yan glanced at Gu Feng, "Honestly, Brother Feng, if you still have 60% of your strength, that’s enough for those rookies to learn from."

With Li Yan’s facial recognition clearance, the car entered the Fourth Military Region.

The entire military base was huge, with special forces training being just one of the units.

But it held a significant status and level within the group.

Li Yan drove to the special forces training base and, watching the soldiers desperately undergoing various extreme climbing and resilience training, Gu Feng felt as if he had returned to the tense atmosphere of the past.

He remarked, "It looks like everyone is really pushing themselves."

Li Yan nodded, "Can’t help it, although there’s still half a year till the official selection of Dragon Thorn, the top priority is to select a group of people to be sent to the Hairy Bear battlefield! Right now, the Hairy Bear battlefield is gathering military contractors from all over the world, serving as a real-life battleground of life and death. Currently, only our Dragon Nation hasn’t participated, so these guys are all eager to try."

He paused, then added, "Of course, if we could get in touch with Longteng Company, that might become another external contracting plan."

After the car parked in the designated parking area, Li Yan, with a smile, asked Lin Yue, "Sister-in-law, what activity would you like to try?"

Lin Yue wasn’t sure what to play because she didn’t know what there was to do here.

While she was pondering, she suddenly heard someone calling her, "Lin Yue?"

She turned around and saw a muscular man in a tank top walking towards her, "Is it really you? I thought I was mistaken."

Lin Yue hadn’t expected to see this person here.

Su Yuan!

He was the one engaged to Lin Yue who then called off the engagement!

Su Yuan smiled and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Without giving it much thought, Lin Yue pointed at Gu Feng beside her and said, "I came over with my husband to have a look."

Husband?

A hint of discomfort flashed across Su Yuan’s smile.

He had heard that after Lin Yue called off her engagement with the Su Family, she had found someone to marry, reportedly a soldier.

At that time, he thought that if there ever was a chance to meet him, he’d have to show him a thing or two.

Not for any particular reason, just the possessiveness of a man.

Although he and Lin Yue had only met and had no emotional foundation, the idea of possessing such a top-tier beauty hovered in his mind; if he said he had no thoughts about her, that would be a sheer lie.

No man could resist having thoughts about Lin Yue upon seeing her; calling off the engagement was a decision by the elders, and he couldn’t defy them!

But ever since he had seen Lin Yue, the idea of coveting her beauty had lingered in his heart.

Originally, he had thought that without the Su Family’s marriage alliance, the Lin Family would gradually decline, and once he had achieved success and married into a significant military family, making his mark in the military, he could then go back and deceive this naive woman.

But unexpectedly, she had quickly found another man!

And to make matters worse, he had run into her!
