When Shi woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. She noticed that the car had stopped. She yawned and looked towards the driver's seat. There was no one there. She was stunned. Could it be that Xiao Yue had left her here and went to Yunling by himself?
At this time, there was a noise coming from the trunk. Shi turned around and saw Xiao Yue taking the gasoline barrel and preparing to refuel the car.
"Let me do it! You're still injured, you can't do any heavy work!" Shi Ye hurriedly got out of the car, propped up the car and walked over. Just as he was about to take the gasoline can from Xiao Yue's hand, he dodged it: "I'm injured, aren't you injured?"
"How can they be the same?" Shi also refused to accept it. In comparison, Xiao Yue's injuries were much more serious.
Xiao Yue said nothing, filling up the gas tank, then took out some dry food from the trunk and handed it to Shi Ye: "Take a break."
Shi also took it and ate two bites, but because he had eaten a lot of raw rice after being kidnapped by Pei Yingchun, his stomach was not used to it. He said listlessly, "I'm not that hungry. Get in the car. I'll rebandage your wound."
Xiao Yue frowned slightly, but seeing that Shi really had no appetite, he followed her into the car.
The bullet had been taken out, so bandaging was not a difficult task. The wound had even begun to heal, but he could not do strenuous exercise, otherwise the wound would still burst. Shi also gave him some instructions, saying, "You take the car, I'll drive."
Xiao Yue looked at her legs, obviously a little worried, but Shi was also eager to try, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
The car started again. Xiao Yue sat in the passenger seat and ate a few bites of dry food. He looked at the sky and said, "It will take another two or three days."
"It's quite far away. Why did Yunling send border guards over to perform mine-sweeping missions?" Shi also frowned. The Northwest and Yunling are separated by such a long distance. There is really no reason to ask the border guards to go there. Wouldn't it delay the patrol?
Xiao Yue was calm and said, "You may not know about the Hurricane Battalion. It is famous not only in the northwest, but also in all military regions of China, because the Hurricane Battalion is a vanguard team that brings together strong players in various fields, including minesweepers. In fact, our Hurricane Battalion is not the only minesweeper team sent to Yunling. The three teams that went there before..."
"Most of them died. The rest are still staying in Yunling, carrying out mine-clearing missions. They will not return until they die."
"Compared to them, Hurricane Battalion was lucky enough to have only been on a minesweeping mission for three months."
Although Xiao Yue's voice was flat, the word "lucky" slipped out of his lips with an indescribable self-mockery.
Shiya pursed his lips and said softly, "This time, we will definitely return victoriously."
The word "we" brought warmth to Xiao Yue's eyes. He said nothing, but just responded softly.
Two days later, with Xiao Yue and Shi Ye taking turns, they finally arrived at the Yunling border after traveling day and night.
Shiya sat in the passenger seat, looking at the towering green mountains, which was a little strange. The northwest was full of deserts and rocky beaches, and there were not many places with lush vegetation. She moved her legs, which had already healed a lot, and asked, "Where is Hurricane Camp?"
"We should be almost at camp." Xiao Yue replied. After arriving at Yunling, he did not relax at all. Instead, he became more tense. After all, this was the hell of his previous life. Even if he had some confidence in his life, he could not hide the ups and downs in his heart.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Shi Ye patted Xiao Yue's arm in a serious voice.
Xiao Yue nodded lightly, and the military vehicle sped all the way across the mountains, and finally saw the camouflage camp hidden in the mountains and forests.
There were army green tents in the camp, and people were walking around. However, before the military vehicle got close, it was stopped by the sentry. Someone shouted excitedly, "The commander is back! The commander is back—"
Seeing that no one was moving rashly, Xiao Yue heaved a sigh of relief. He got out of the car, opened the door, and helped Shi get out.
When the people in the camp heard the shout, they all ran out of their tents. When they saw Shiye, the joy on their faces turned into surprise, and then into joy: "Doctor Shiye is here too! Doctor Shiye is also going on the mission with us!"
Since the plague incident, Shiye has become a hot commodity in the entire Northwest Frontier Defense Camp. Everyone knows that she has superb medical skills and can save lives. They were already worried about carrying out the mine-sweeping mission, and Shiye's arrival was like a reassurance.
Seeing how happy they were, Shi also curled his lips and held Xiao Yue's arm as they walked towards the camp.
When he saw Bao Qing running out like a wild bull, Shi was about to say hello, but the latter hugged Xiao Yue, and the two of them were quite affectionate. Shi lowered his eyes to look at Xiao Yue's hand that was supporting him, and frowned, feeling that he was redundant.
"You're finally back! I'm going to bring my brothers back to collect your body!" Bao Qing cursed angrily and raised his hand to hit Xiao Yue on the back. Shi also frowned: "He's injured. If you hit him, he's going to bleed again."
Bao Qing froze in mid-air, and finally let go of Xiao Yue. He looked at Shi Ye and said in surprise, "You really came back alive. Good job, Old Xiao. Not bad. You have done a great job. You must report this achievement later. Don't make it seem like a personal matter. Doctor Shi's importance to China is self-evident. You can't get rid of this achievement!"
Shi also laughed: "Do I need to tell you that?"
Bao Qing snorted, "You are stupid. You were taken away by someone. Otherwise, would Lao Xiao have left the team to rescue you? This matter will have to be reported to the higher authorities. When the time comes, we will set up an investigation team. I am afraid that the credit for this mine-clearing mission will have to be offset!"
He didn't say anything harsh. To be honest, if he put himself in someone else's shoes, he wouldn't be able to remain calm if the person he liked was captured by the Annan people. When he stopped Xiao Yue, he was just standing from the perspective of a bystander. Looking back, doesn't this just prove that he was right about the person? Brothers value friendship and loyalty, right? What's there to be angry about?
Moreover, he actually had no ill feelings towards Shi Ye. He just thought that she had no vision and didn't like Xiao Yue. However, he would not watch her die and remain indifferent. After all, she was someone he knew, and Shi Ye was a good doctor and had saved many people in the camp. She didn't deserve to die.
He had been thinking these past two days: if Shi was also taken back to Annan, how would Xiao Yue cross the border? If he caught up with him, how would he save him from Pei Yingchun? What if he couldn't save anyone and ended up getting himself involved?
Fortunately, everything is fine. Even if I was injured, I finally got my life back, right? It's worth it!
"Then you should be worrying too much." Shi was also very confident, with some emotion in the deer's eyes.
The discovery of the Annan people's secret tunnel this time was like holding a handle. She didn't know how the higher-ups would negotiate with the Annan people, but they would definitely not let it go lightly. For her and Xiao Yue, who discovered the tunnel, it was definitely a great achievement!
Furthermore, this time the mine-sweeping mission only requires caution and with Xiao Yue here, the mission should be successfully completed.
Two great achievements, no, it should be considered three. After all, Xiao Yue was trying to rescue her who was kidnapped by the Annan people. This was another handle. Similarly, the rescue was successful, even though Major Pei Yingchun died, it was also his own fault.
Every achievement of Xiao Yue can be traced, and maybe he can go one step further this time.
