After receiving the call from the peacekeeping camp, Zhao Tianyu maintained his current sitting posture with the phone in hand for five minutes. During these five minutes, Zhao Tianyu remained silent and did not speak.
In one sentence, Li Ran on the other end of the phone also remained silent.
Although the cost of satellite phones is high, no one of them paid attention to this matter at this time.
It was extremely quiet in Zhao Tianyu's office. The only sound was the "click-click" sound of the second hands of the two quartz wall clocks hanging on the wall that displayed domestic time and Green time respectively.
After almost two or three minutes, Zhao Tianyu asked Li Ran on the other end of the phone, "Have you confirmed the situation?"
"Currently it can only be confirmed that when the rocket hit the wooden bridge, he and Ye Zixiao fell into the river and were washed away by the river." Li Ran paused for a moment and said, "It's not certain yet. He
Is he already sacrificing? My opinion is that for the time being, the situation between him and Ye Zixiao is
Zhao Tianyu pinched the bridge of his nose and said to Li Ran in a low voice: "Then classify it as MIA. I can't send you more people for the time being. You can only rely on yourself."
"General La Zutu has promised to fully assist us. There is no need to worry about the personnel, but..." Li Ran hesitated for a moment and asked Zhao Tianyu: "How should I tell the princess about this? We can only hide it for a while.
, it is impossible to hide it from her forever, and in her current situation, if something unexpected happens, it will kill three people."
"You don't need to worry about the princess, I will handle it." Zhao Tianyu said to Li Ran on the other end of the phone: "You only need to be responsible for the matters at hand. Whether it is life or death, I need accurate information!
"
"Understood!" Li Ran replied: "Once there is news from my side, I will give it back as soon as possible."
After Zhao Tianyu hung up the phone, he leaned back on the chair and looked up at the ceiling of the office. After a long time, he opened the drawer and took out a box of white shell special cigarettes in a ziplock plastic bag. He opened the cigarette box and
There were only five cigarettes missing in the cigarette box. Zhao Tianyu did not have the habit of smoking and would only smoke a cigarette under some special circumstances. Therefore, it took a long time for Zhao Tianyu to open this box of cigarettes, but it was
Only five were taken out.
Zhao Tianyu took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, stuffed it into his mouth, took out a lighter that was also placed in a ziplock plastic bag, opened the metal lid of the lighter, and turned the steel wheel.
Cha! Cha! Cha!
The rotating steel wheel rubbed against the flint, splashing out sparks. Zhao Tianyu moved the steel wheel several times, but failed to ignite the fire. This made Zhao Tianyu, who was already depressed, even more upset and angry.
The speed of turning the steel wheel is getting faster and faster.
Cha! Cha! Cha! Phew!
The flint finally ignited the cotton wick soaked in oil, and the yellow flame danced gently. Zhao Tianyu took the lighter, lit the cigarette in his mouth with a slightly trembling hand, and then took a deep breath.
Hey...
The lit tobacco flickered, and there was a section of gray ash at the end of the cigarette. Zhao Tianyu took one puff after another, puffing on the cigarette, and soon the cigarette in his hand burned to the filter, and he put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray.
After that, Zhao Tianyu took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, lit it and continued to smoke.
The second cigarette, the third cigarette, the fourth cigarette...
In the office, Zhao Tianyu smoked cigarettes one after another. Soon there were only a few cigarettes left in the box of cigarettes on the table, and there were more than a dozen cigarette butts in the ashtray. In the room with the doors and windows closed and the air conditioner turned on, this
It was also filled with smoke, filled with a pungent and unpleasant smell of smoke, but Zhao Tianyu felt nothing at all in it. It can be said that the cigarettes Zhao Tianyu smoked in just one moment was as much as he usually smoked in a year.
The total number of cigarettes.
After finishing the cigarette in his hand, Zhao Tianyu picked up the phone and dialed Li Xuetong's number. He didn't say anything else on the phone. He just asked Li Xuetong to come to his office and hung up the phone.
Li Xuetong hung up the phone and became a little confused about Zhao Tianyu's somewhat unusual tone of voice. After telling her daughter to stay at home and not run around, she went to Zhao Tianyu's office alone.
Pushing the door and walking into the office, Li Xuetong frowned when she smelled the pungent smell of smoke in the office. She glared at Zhao Tianyu, who was sitting in the chair and still smoking, and said displeasedly: "It's okay to smoke."
Why is there so much smoke? You don’t even open the window, you can’t think about it and want to commit suicide?”
Li Xuetong walked to the window sill and opened all the windows to circulate the air in the office. After the smell of cigarette smoke in the office dissipated, she walked to Zhao Tianyu's desk and looked at the ashtray on the desk that was about to be filled with cigarette butts.
, frowned and said: "What happened? Why did you smoke so many cigarettes all at once?"
Li Xuetong knew Zhao Tianyu well and knew that he rarely smoked. It was very rare for him to smoke so many cigarettes at once. In the long time Li Xuetong had known Zhao Tianyu, he had never seen Zhao Tianyu smoke so many cigarettes at once.
Zhao Tianyu finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, crumpled the empty cigarette box on the table, took a deep breath, and said to Li Xuetong in as calm a tone as possible: "Xiao Hao is missing. A local village was attacked.
The armed attack was carried out by Jiang Wei in order to lure Xiaohao and others into the trap they had arranged in advance. There was a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides. The helicopter sent by the peacekeeping camp to support them was also hit and made an emergency landing next to the village.
In the woods, Xiao Hao and his men rescued the wounded from the helicopter that had made an emergency landing. The troops were divided into two groups. He was responsible for diverting Jiang Wei away, while Li Ran led the wounded and the medical team to evacuate. When they were about to evacuate at the end,
Jiang Wei hit the wooden bridge with a rocket launcher. Xiaohao and Dr. Ye Zixiao fell into the river together and were washed away by the river. Their lives and deaths are unknown at the moment and they are temporarily classified as MIA!"
"Mia! Lost contact during the operation!?" Li Xuetong exclaimed in surprise, stood up from the chair, stared at Zhao Tianyu, and after a while, sat back in the chair again, murmuring absentmindedly: "Mia, how could this happen?
so?"
Mia, lost contact in action, although there are some differences in nature from kia (killed in action), once the team member identified as mia loses contact for a specified period of time, it is equivalent to kia. That is to say, as long as the team member identified as mia has lost contact,
As a team member, it is as if half of the foot has already stepped into the grave, and only the final decision is needed to seal the coffin!
"Every mission carried out by members of the Longyin Force is extremely dangerous, and any situation may happen. When we step out of the country, we are already dead. This is not an empty talk..." Zhao Tianyu told Li Xuetong
said.
When Zhao Tianyu used such a reason to persuade Li Xuetong, wasn't he also using such a reason to convince himself? He personally took Luo Hao out of the orphanage and sent him to the Red Flag School, teaching him all kinds of special operations.
Skills, handed over to the students hand in hand, it can be said that Zhao Tianyu completely trained Luo Hao as his successor, and really treated Luo Hao as his own son!
Now that Luo Hao has lost contact during the operation, for Zhao Tianyu, it is not only his tactical squadron leader who has lost contact, but also his child!
"What should Xiao Xi do? She is still pregnant with the child, and the due date is one month away. Now that something like this happens, what will you do if you let her know?" Li Xuetong asked in a low voice. She was asking Zhao
Tianyu, similarly, is also asking herself.
"This is also the reason why I came to you." Zhao Tianyu looked at his wife and said to her in a very serious tone: "You should find a way to tell Xiao Xi about this matter and try to prevent her from becoming overly emotional."
"Avoid being overly emotional? Do you think Xiao Xi can still remain calm after knowing this?" Li Xuetong asked Zhao Tianyu: "Even we can't stay calm, let alone Xiao Xi?"
Zhao Tianyu took a deep breath, sighed lightly, and then said to Li Xuetong: "Then keep it secret from her for the time being, as long as you can, and finally tell her after the child is born."
Li Xuetong was silent for a while, and finally nodded and agreed. There was no other way. After all, if Yun Xi knew about this now, it would not be good for her or the child in her belly.
…
The river water rushed forward towards Luo Hao and Ye Zixiao. After it merged into the mainstream, the two people were carried away by the current again...
When Luo Hao opened his eyes, the big sun above his head shone on the river, creating a dazzling reflection. He found that he was on the river bank next to a forest. No part of his body was dry, and the weapons on his body were not dry.
Except for the dragon tooth saber, all other weapons including the akm automatic rifle were lost.
After Luo Hao coughed up some water, he struggled to get up from the river bank. At this time, he felt sore all over his body. It felt like he had been torn apart and put back together again. In addition to the soreness on his body, his body also felt sore.
His head also hurt badly. The pain was far worse than the soreness in his body. He felt as if his head was about to split.
Leaning on the rocks on the shore, Luo Hao tried hard to recall what happened before, but no matter how hard he tried to recall, the previous memories seemed to have been wiped away, and there was no longer any impression! He even forgot
He had no idea who he was and why he appeared here! And the more Luo Hao thought about it, the worse his headache became. In the end, he had to give up recalling his missing memory and take stock of where he was now.
Soon, Luo Hao found Ye Zixiao lying on the river bank not far from him. Although Luo Hao had also forgotten Ye Zixiao at this time, from the camouflage uniform on Ye Zixiao and her position,
Luo Hao felt that the other party might know who he was, and what happened to them to appear here. 8
