"Hiss—Annan? She surrendered to the enemy?" Bao Qing gasped, shocked.
However, he reacted in an instant and looked at Xiao Yue suspiciously: "How do you know? Did she tell you when she was on the mission that she was going to Annan? A military doctor with the rank of major, located in Annan, this is not a good thing!"
Bao Qing frowned, she was very dissatisfied with Shi in her heart. You said you would go back to Yandu, so you went back to Yandu, but you turned around and went to Annan to hang out. If this matter were to spread out, her career as a major military doctor would probably be over. How could she marry Xiao Yue?
He didn't doubt Xiao Yue's words at all and just thought that Shi had told him the same thing.
Thinking of this, Bao Qing muttered, "Last time I saw that Pei Yingchun was a little strange to Shi. She went to the Annan territory for no reason. If she was discovered by others, she might stay there and become the daughter-in-law of the Annan people."
"She was taken away." Xiao Yue's forehead was covered with sweat, and his eyes looked like a violent storm was about to roll in.
"Taken away? By whom... Are you talking about Pei Yingchun?! How is this possible? How could Pei Yingchun enter our Chinese territory and take Shi away?" Bao Qing's expression became serious, somewhat unbelievable.
He was also a little anxious, but when he turned around and looked at the scarlet corners of Xiao Yue's eyes, he knew that he was in a bad mood, so he hurriedly said, "It's useless for us to be anxious now. Calm down first. Don't forget that we have to complete the mission first. As for Shiye, if she is really taken away, the military region will definitely find a way to rescue her. Shiye is a medical talent and has solved the plague. Nothing will happen to her anyway!"
Xiao Yue's chest rose and fell slightly, his thin lips pursed tightly, trying to suppress the outburst in his heart: "What if she was kidnapped on the way back to Yandu after leaving the camp? Who would know? Who would care? If she went to Annan, Pei Yingchun could totally deny it!"
"..." Bao Qing was really speechless. Thinking of such a result, he felt a little scared.
Shi was also taken to Annan. Given Pei Yingchun's personality, he would probably use threats and inducements, and his methods were not weak.
The most important thing is what Xiao Yue said. If they really go to ask Pei Yingchun for someone, he will not admit it. No matter how important Shiye is, the Northwest Frontier Defense Camp will not have a head-on conflict with Annan for her before there is definite evidence. After that, Shiye's disappearance will be classified as an accident, and the search will be left unresolved after a period of time. This is already the best result.
"No, no, Lao Xiao, how did you know that?" Bao Qing came back to his senses and really didn't understand.
They had been away from the Northwest Frontier Defense Camp for more than ten hours. Without any contact, who knew what was going on there? Moreover, even if they had contacted, who would have known that Shi had been kidnapped by the Annan people after leaving the camp? This was too weird.
Xiao Yue did not answer. His eyes seemed to be obscured by a deep mist and he slammed on the brakes.
The military vehicle stopped, and the vehicles behind it also stopped.
Bao Qing paused, his eyes wide open: "Don't tell me you plan to go back to save people! Xiao Yue, don't go crazy!"
After saying that, he turned around to look at the parked military vehicle. Li Xueshan was about to come up to ask questions.
Bao Qing lowered his voice and said urgently: "You are the leading officer this time. Your only mission is to lead everyone to Yunling safely! If you leave your post without permission, I dare not think about the consequences you will face! Even if you are worried, you must complete the mission first!"
It's not that he is cruel. It is a serious violation of discipline and duty for an officer to leave his post while performing a mission. With Xiao Yue's position as the corps commander, a special investigation team will even be set up to record every incident in his personal file, which will have a huge negative impact on his future development. That's not all, he may even face demotion!
It would be fine if Shi could be rescued, after all, he is a comrade who has made great contributions. It was a special reason that caused Xiao Yue to leave his job. As long as he could return to Yunling in time and complete the task, he might be given a lighter punishment later.
But what if the person cannot be rescued and Annan refuses to release him?
"Don't be silly! Pei Yingchun is a ruthless character. If you go alone, you might end up being killed! He's worried that you won't be left alone, and you go there on your own? Are you stupid?" Bao Qing grabbed Xiao Yue's arm tightly, with veins bulging on his forehead.
Xiao Yue raised his eyes to look at him, and said solemnly: "Comrade Bao Qing, you have already understood the mission deployment. During the two days I am away, you will temporarily lead the team and bring the comrades to Yunling safely. Don't rush into the mission and wait for me to come back. Do you understand?"
"You're crazy! I'm not crazy! I'm not. If you want to go back, let's go back together! At worst, we'll be sent back to our hometown together!" Bao Qing shouted at the top of his voice. When Li Xueshan came over, he heard this sentence. He was stunned for a moment: "Captain, what happened?"
Xiao Yue said in a deep voice: "Comrade Li Xueshan!"
Li Xueshan stood in front of the military vehicle and raised his hand to salute: "Here!"
"I have some special reasons and need to go back to the northwest. In the next two days, you lead your comrades to continue on the journey. If you have any questions about the mission deployment, you can discuss it with Bao Qing. When you arrive at the Yunling border, organize the team and wait for me to return!"
Li Xueshan's pupils shrank. He didn't understand why Xiao Yue wanted to leave the team suddenly, but this was a military order.
He immediately shouted, "Yes! I promise to complete the task!"
"He's crazy, and you're going crazy too!" Bao Qing was furious and cursed inwardly. He grabbed Xiao Yue's hand and refused to let go, saying harshly, "I can't watch you die! Xiao Yue, you have to listen to me this time!"
Xiao Yue lowered his eyes, his voice low and hoarse, his originally cold temperament suddenly became sinister and vicious: "I must go! Get out of the car!"
"She doesn't like you at all! Why do you care about her life or death? Have you forgotten the dream that tormented you? Every failure makes you wiser, Xiao Yue, you idiot! I think you are going backwards!" Bao Qing was not afraid at all and said sternly.
Li Xueshan stood by the car, listening to the two people arguing, and didn't know how to persuade them.
Xiao Yue's eyes were filled with gloom, and he had a murderous aura, but his voice was calm: "Yes, I was stupid. I recognized the wrong person from the beginning. You did something wrong, Bao Qing, and you must make amends for your mistakes. Although I am not the Xiao Yue I used to be, I have not changed in my bones. I have killed her once, and this time, I will repay her life."
There was silence in the car, and Bao Qing thought of what Shi Ye had said to him.
He took a deep breath, released Xiao Yue's arm, pounded on the car door, and cursed, "I'm going crazy too!"
"I'll leave the Hurricane Camp to you for now. I trust you." Xiao Yue chuckled, but his eyes were filled with sharpness.
"Idiot! You'd better come back alive!" Bao Qing hit Xiao Yue's shoulder hard, opened the door and jumped out of the car.
"I will come back alive." Xiao Yue frowned slightly, and no emotion could be heard from his expression.
After he finished speaking, he added in his mind: I will come back and help you complete the mine-clearing mission, return to the camp alive with glory.
Xiao Yue made some preparations, then turned the car around and drove the military vehicle past at lightning speed. The body of the car kicked up dust, forming a rolling yellow dragon in the eyes of Bao Qing and Li Xueshan, and disappeared at the end of the road in the blink of an eye.
"Mad man!" Bao Qing kicked the car door and unbuttoned his combat uniform in annoyance.
Li Xueshan glanced at him and said sourly, "You seem to have a secret with the leader."
Bao Qing laughed angrily: "Do you think I am willing? Damn it, I don't even want to know about this shit!"
On the other side, Xiao Yue held the steering wheel with one hand and reached to his neck with the other hand. He pulled a red string and suddenly pulled it off. He put the ring hanging from the red string on his hand, lowered his eyes to take a look, and spoke in a suppressed voice.
"Miya, wait for me."
