The sentry who steadfastly guard the post does not descend the mountain for years on end.
The bitterness is immeasurable.
The outpost in the plateau region, located on the mountain top, is a world of ice and snow year-round. Both coming and going depend solely on one's feet. Even for the logistic soldiers delivering supplies, they can only rely on their own two feet.
Commander Chen said gravely, "Comrade Zhu Rong, do you understand the implications of your request?"
"I do!" A bitter smile flickered in Zhu Rong's eyes, but his face was filled with earnestness and tenacity. "If possible, I would like to request the troop to allow my family and me to guard the outpost together."
At this, Commander Chen, Ye Zhengjun, and Zheng Xuefeng all wore surprised expressions.
"Your whole family would go?" They had assumed Zhu Rong wanted to guard the outpost to drive his wife and child away by making them understand the difficulties.
