Chapter 182 Tong Yuheng Enters the Training Camp
Fan Yaqing was exhausted after half a day, but Linglong was still full of energy. She didn't leave after finishing her own work, but kept watching until Fan Yaqing finished her work! She even said that she wanted to improve together with Fan Yaqing.
The villagers watched the spectacle, chatting and laughing as they worked, thinking to themselves that Fan Zhiqing was just a fool who had to mess with the Tong sisters of all people.
He's both bad at the game and loves to play; he's asking for trouble!
Tong Yuheng was busy preparing the items and medicines needed to train the ancient martial arts warriors. Li Chengsong would often come over after dinner, drive Tong Yuheng out, and not return until late at night.
They went to check on the facilities at the training base. Overall, they were rather basic, but they were sufficient for basic training and living needs.
When Liu Fengyi returned, he mentioned the matter of Sun Lanxiang, who was suspected to be a fugitive, to Cheng Jinliang, the current captain of the public security brigade.
"Jinliang, my sixth child discovered that Fan Yaqing, a former educated youth in the village, was in contact with an outsider. He went to see her and said that the person looked a lot like her mother, Sun Xianglan, the fugitive wanted by the Northwest Labor Reform Camp."
That person has a grudge against Jia Hui's family, and I'm worried she might harm them. Moreover, she's involved with enemy agents, so send someone to keep an eye on her!
"Since we suspect they're fugitives, why not just arrest them? I'll send someone over to stake out the area, and if they meet again, I'll make my move!"
As the captain of the Public Security Bureau, Cheng Jinliang knew some things about the Tong family from the cases he handled before taking over:
Grandpa Tong's half-brother was a spy from G City, posing as an investor to gather intelligence. Grandpa Tong reported him, and he was arrested.
It is said that Sun Xianglan was related to Guo Qirun and had even gone to G City with him. However, when they were investigating whether she had participated in enemy activities, she disappeared from a labor camp in the Northwest!
"She's a thin, not young woman, and she came all the way from the Northwest. It's impossible for her to come here without anyone helping her. So I suggest we don't arrest her yet, but see who she's been in contact with and what her purpose is."
"Could she really be an enemy agent? Deputy Director Liu, do you mean to follow the clues and arrest this whole string of bad elements?" Cheng Jinliang wasn't stupid; Old Liu was trying to pin the credit on him.
The eldest sister is right. The Tong family members are all capable people, including this son-in-law of the Tong family, his boss Liu Fengyi.
"Yes, I remember the Cobra organization we took down last time; their headquarters were in the Northwest. Do you think this woman could be connected to them?"
Liu Fengyi had dealt with this organization many times in the past two years. This organization was involved in human trafficking, theft, assassination, and all sorts of evil deeds, which made him suspicious.
"Damn! We'd better keep an eye on them. That organization is full of bastards who have no morals whatsoever, and there are a lot of desperados among them."
Don't worry, Deputy Director Liu, I'll arrange for people to keep an eye on Fan Yaqing in shifts. Just remind them at home. But it's alright since you have Yuheng at home; she's incredibly skilled in martial arts!
"She really hasn't been home for the past few months. Her uncle's child is too young, so she asked her to help take care of him for a few months. My father-in-law and Jia Hui still have to take care of things at home."
"Oh! Your eldest son, Yuheng, is the most sensible and family-oriented. It's such a waste to have such a good son working in the countryside!" Cheng Jinliang said with emotion.
"She's got talent that she'll never waste, no matter where she is. For example, she just bought new high-yield rice seeds for the village and is even organizing people in the village to grow alfalfa and raise bees."
Last year, the sisters designed a tractor-driven double-layered plow for the village, saving the villagers a lot of effort. She said this is true support for rural development!
When Liu Fengyi praised his daughter, he was anything but modest. She was truly his precious daughter!
"You're so lucky to have seven precious daughters all at once! But we have ten boys and not a single girl. Why can't God distribute them more evenly?"
The Cheng family has five siblings. Except for the fourth brother, who only has one son, the other brothers all have two sons, while her sister has three sons. Therefore, all the brothers really like the girls in their god-sister's family.
"Hehe, isn't everyone hoping that boys can take over the household registration? Don't be so ungrateful!" Liu Fengyi said with a smile. In his heart, he still thought girls were better, and daughters were the most considerate.
"Then keep an eye on this matter. Contact me if you need any support."
"Don't worry, I'll arrange for someone to follow and investigate right away."

Tong Yuheng has now entered the training camp. She has been to this place several times, and many of the decorations and facilities inside were suggested and requested to be installed and built by her.
This is in the nearby mountains, a vast, gravelly riverbank clearing with a river flowing through it. Water is readily available here, and there are few outsiders, so their training here is less likely to be disturbed.
More than a dozen military tents have been set up on the riverbank. One large tent is used as a classroom, while the two smaller tents are for Tong Yuheng and Li Chengsong respectively.
The other tents serve as dormitories and storage rooms for the ancient martial arts warriors. Each dormitory houses eight people, for a total of eight teams. The flat riverbank was used as a training ground; this location was both practical and economical.
Li Chengsong is the deputy instructor this time. He has only been practicing ancient martial arts for a short time, and Tong Yuheng has not given him high-grade medicines such as the Cleansing Meridian Pill, so he has not yet developed internal energy. At best, he can be considered to be at the intermediate level of a beginner martial artist.
He had no problem instructing these people on basic movements and techniques. He was also responsible for external liaison, supplying materials, and assisting Tong Yuheng in teaching.
For the next three months, all the food will be transported from this river by bamboo rafts or rubber boats; Li Chengsong will arrange this.
At the riverbank near the camp, two pools, each two meters wide and eight meters long, were built as she requested. A nearly two-meter-high brick wall surrounded them, topped with a raised canopy. This created a makeshift bathhouse.
There was another hot spring pool with the same layout next to it, but it was two meters wide and three meters long, more than half the size of the two larger ones, and it was for the female soldiers.
There is a hot spring underground here. Li Chengsong specially asked the well-drilling team to open a springhead so that warm spring water can be drawn into the pool at any time using a water pump.
Because Tong Yuheng wanted to give everyone a medicinal bath, a soaking pool was essential. This was something she specifically emphasized when choosing a training location; everything else was easy to make do with, but this medicinal bath was inconvenient, and Li Chensong had to go to great lengths to find this place.
This area, spanning five miles, has been sealed off with barbed wire, emphasizing that it is a military secret zone, practically isolated from the outside world except for communication with the military.
The selected soldiers were all young men in their late teens or early twenties. They were of excellent moral character and physical fitness, and their superiors had high expectations for them.
Looking at the neat and orderly team standing in front of her, Tong Yuheng felt a sense of training with her teammates in her previous life, which aroused her fighting spirit and belief.
