“I’ve been traveling in the mountains with my dad since I was a child, so I’m fine,” Wei Aiguo said.
Shu Hang hesitated for a moment, "Actually, one of us can stay, one can take Platoon Leader Shen down the mountain, and the other can deliver the message."
“If one person takes Platoon Leader Shen, I’m afraid we won’t get there before dark…” Wei Aiguo was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
“That’s a good idea! My stamina is better than Shu Hang’s, I’ll deliver the message. Shu Hang will accompany Platoon Leader Shen down the mountain,” Tian Zhenguo said.
They were all soldiers participating in the training camp. Shen Dongqi was of a higher rank. Although he was not officially appointed, it would be reasonable for him to be forced to serve as the commander.
Now everyone is discussing how to proceed, and Shen Dongqi has no objections. Shu Hang's proposed method also has merit. However, who does what makes a big difference.
Those monitoring the two people were also actively working on it. But in such damp and cold weather, surveillance was the most arduous task.
Those who accompanied Shen Dongqi and escorted their comrades were naturally neither commended nor blamed. But carrying a heavy load alone was no easy task!

Tian Zhenguo opened his mouth, but didn't say that he wanted to take the gun.
"Watch out! Take cover!" Shu Hang patted Wei Aiguo on the shoulder.
“I know! Shu Hang, you must get out of here with Platoon Leader Shen tonight. Platoon Leader Shen has lost too much blood, and I'm afraid he won't be able to survive the night on the mountain in this cold weather. Besides, if you stay in one place for too long, the smell of blood will attract wild animals more easily,” Wei Aiguo reminded Shu Hang.
No one spoke to Tian Zhenguo, which made him a little uncomfortable. "I'll definitely be able to deliver my letter before dark. Someone will come up the mountain to meet me."
