Chapter 632: Walking into the Trap

h later, Lanxing broke news of an explosive nature. The commander of the Fifth Army, Wu Yishan, was removed from his post. Due to being implicated in murder and leaking imperial secrets among other ch..."Zhang Dashuai gave me an opportunity to improve my medical skills. I have already left NN city and will not disturb your life anymore. Wishing you all the best! May you reach the summit soon!"

After Yun Siyu finished speaking, she hung up the phone. She was very decisive and didn't give Zhang Xuetao a chance to ask questions.

Zhang Xuedao was already feeling unwell because of a fever. Receiving this kind of phone call that felt like a breakup made him feel even more suffocated. So, he called the housekeeper and asked about what had happened.

The steward reported to the old master, recounting the events. The crux of the matter was that Yunsiyu was very sensible and didn't want to embarrass the young master. She harbored no ill intentions, only taking what she deserved—the gold bars and the opportunity to improve her medical skills. She took the initiative to leave NN City.

The more the housekeeper explained, the more Zhang Xuetao felt sorry for Yun Siyu. After all, the other party was always thinking of him, even if it seemed advantageous for her to leave, it was because she didn't want to disturb his life.

Zhang Xuetao knew in his heart that although Yun Siyu seemed to have left N City of her own accord, his father must have put pressure on her through the housekeeper. After all, Yun Siyu was just an ordinary girl with no ability to resist.

He knew that the more he acted like he cared about Yun Siyu, the angrier his father would become, and he would blame everything on Yun Siyu. So he held back his impulse to immediately find Yun Siyu and instead turned his attention to absorbing the small warlord forces. He wanted to show with his actions that he didn't care so much about Yun Siyu.

As expected, once he focused all his attention on warfare, his father stopped lecturing him. And he himself wanted to take over the reins of power from his father as soon as possible, for only then could he do what he wanted.

ZHANG Xuetao's every move was watched by Duan Zongqing, who showed him great respect. He even entrusted several elite squads from his own hands to Zhang Xuetao. This was done for two reasons: first, to protect him, and second, to assist him in battle. It was also a way to help him quickly integrate with the Duan family army.

Zhang Fenglin was also pleased to see his son gain Duan Zongqing's trust so quickly. He then handed over half the command of the Northeast Zhang family army to Zhang Xuetuo.

With his own men at his disposal and after a year of training, Zhang Xuetao is now known as "Young Marshal Zhang." The voice to replace his father is growing increasingly strong.

Meanwhile, Zhang Fenglin knew in his heart that his son still lacked the experience to fully inherit the Zhang Family Army. Therefore, while he continued to hone his son's abilities, he also began arranging an exit strategy for his old subordinates who had followed him.

After all, as the saying goes, "one emperor, one set of ministers." When a son takes over, he may not necessarily like to use his father's old subordinates. Aside from the issue of seniority, there are often conflicts in their battle tactics, strategies, and approaches. This was evident during the previous campaign to eliminate small factions in the north.

Zhang Xuetao, riding high on success, his horse galloping with the wind, encountered Yun Siyu in a battlefield up north. At that time, Yun Siyu was already a battlefield doctor.

Zhang Xuetao was knocked unconscious by an explosion while fighting a band of bandits hidden deep in the mountains. The people around him were also injured protecting him. As the commander, he was naturally carried to the emergency tent first.

Zhang Xuetao felt a chill on his face, and he slowly came to. The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was Yun Siyu. She calmly used a stethoscope to listen to his heart, then opened and closed her mouth, saying something to his personal guard. He felt her voice was distant and fluctuating, coming from near and far away.

Then he was carried back to his residence, and the next day he fully recovered. He went to the emergency tent and saw Yun Siyu bandaging a wounded soldier's wound.

Not until the wisps of cloud and rain finished their work and left the tent did he step forward, offering the other a ration bar, and ask:

"How are you here"

Yunshiyu looked at the man before her, whom she hadn't seen in a year. He had become more mature and composed. Her heart was pounding with excitement, but on her face, there was a serene smile as she spoke softly:

"Where else would I be if I'm a doctor now"

"Didn't the housekeeper tell you your learning period wasn't two years"

“I excelled in my studies, finished early, and successfully passed the medical licensing exam. The foreign hospital wanted to keep me, but I studied medicine to heal the sick and save lives. There weren't many patients there, so I left Nanhu and returned to the north.”

"Just happened to be here when there was a conflict, so I joined the medic squad. Ended up on this post and couldn't believe I ran into you here. How are you doing"

Yun Si Yu asked very restrainedly.

Zhang Xuedao suddenly felt that there was a predestined relationship between them, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence that Yun Siyu would appear in his camp and coincidentally save him.

"I have always been busy"

Zhang Xuetao also slowly opened up, sharing his recent happenings.

But less than a quarter of an hour later, his personal guards came to find him and take him to the command post. The next steps in troop deployment needed his direction.

"General Zhang, you busy yourself first! We can catch up later. I also need to attend to the wounded. I hope you conquer this bandit stronghold soon."

As soon as Yun Si Yu finished speaking, she dashed into the emergency tent without hesitation. It was clear that talking to him had already wasted a lot of time.

Zhang Xuetao could only turn and leave. After all, he had already found the person, right beside him. He wasn't afraid the other party would run away. Right now, what he needed to do was capture his target.

As Yun Siyu entered the emergency tent, a triumphant smile finally appeared on her face. It was worth her venturing into the crossfire zone. Not only did she ambush Zhang Xuetao, but she also once again surpassed his expectations of her. All her efforts over the past month were worthwhile.

It turns out this encounter was all meticulously planned by Yun Si and Yu.

She studied at a foreign hospital in Shanghai for a year and passed the exam with excellent results, obtaining her medical license. Then she started considering her next step.

Zhang Xuedao and her broke up almost a year ago. Over time, without contact, even the best first impressions fade, especially since his fiancee also left Xia Guo. This is precisely her chance to move in.

She also left the foreign hospital to escape Zhang's surveillance. With enough money in hand, she went north and returned to Xiaoyu's hometown.

Zhang Xuet Tao kept moving around the battlefield, knowing that if she took the initiative to approach him, it would make her look bad and might arouse Zhang Dashuai's suspicion. So, after gathering enough intelligence, she directly joined the medical team on the front lines, transferring between various positions until she finally encountered Zhang Xuetao.

As soon as the patient was carried into the tent, she immediately recognized him. She went over to examine him, maintaining a composed demeanor and portraying the image of a dutiful doctor perfectly. This worked; Zhang Xuetao took the bait and approached her.

"Humph! This time, I'll see how you escape from the web of love I've woven for you."of the leader at the bureau, telling him what had happened.“Let Zhao Jingcheng report the case, so we can get involved. Otherwise, we'll be acting unfairly and going against our principles. This is th...
