Shi Lei stood up, walked quickly to the yard and opened the door, and found three people standing outside the door. One was Li Meng, the battalion commander of the guard battalion, and the other was Hong Tao, the chief of the confidential department. Behind the two was a soldier, who was Xu Chengdong.
"Captain Li, Chief Hong, what's the matter?" Shi Lei asked.
"Please report to the commander immediately, we have an emergency report!" Hong Tao said.
"Yes! Please wait a moment!" After Shi Lei let the three people into the yard, he walked quickly into the house.
A moment later, the lights in the room came on, and Shi Lei walked out of the room and said, "The commander wants you to come in!"
When the three of them entered the house, Yang Shulin was already sitting on the sofa in the living room wearing his military uniform.
"What's the matter?" Yang Shulin asked.
"Report to the commander, ten minutes ago, we intercepted an emergency code. After translation, the sender was guard platoon leader Zhong Lei!" Hong Tao said.
"What?!" Yang Shulin stood up suddenly when he heard it, and the military uniform he was wearing fell on the sofa.
"Bring me the documents!" Yang Shulin stretched out his hand and said anxiously.
After hearing this, Hong Tao quickly handed the folder in his hand to Yang Shulin.
Yang Shulin opened the folder and quickly scanned it. "Second Guard Platoon Leader reports to Rongcheng Base: We've encountered the enemy, with twelve casualties. The expedition team is safe, but the major is seriously injured. We're forty miles east of the Fairy Mountain Gorge. Urgent support!"
After reading the contents of the telegram, Yang Shulin perked up and shouted, "Li Meng, all members of your Seventh Company will be mobilized. Lightly armed and fully ammunition, leave immediately. The other companies will temporarily take over the base security!"
"Yes!" Li Meng took the order and left quickly.
"Shi Lei!"
"arrive!"
"Notify the medical team, and have two doctors and medicine accompany Li Meng!"
"Yes!" After receiving the order, Shi Lei ran to the duty room to contact the medical team.
"Hong Tao!"
"arrive!"
"Return to your post immediately, pay close attention to the radio information, and report any situation in a timely manner!"
"Yes!" Hong Tao agreed and took Xu Chengdong away from the courtyard where Yang Shulin lived.
After issuing three orders in succession, Yang Shulin sat down on the sofa, then opened the folder in his hand, read it over and over again, and then suddenly clenched his right fist and hit the armrest of the sofa.
Twenty minutes later, a military jeep and three trucks drove out of the Chengdu base. At the same time, in a small courtyard within the red walls of the capital, an old man in his sixties had just finished a call with Yang Shulin, commander of the Chengdu base.
This old man is the founding father of the Longxia Kingdom, General Su Dingshan.
After hanging up the phone, Su Dingshan frowned and sat at the desk for a long time without moving. After being silent for more than ten minutes, he picked up another red phone on the table and dialed it.
Nearly four hours later, it was around nine in the morning. Zhong Lei and others, who were hiding in the deep mountains and woods, heard the sound of a car engine coming from afar.
His expression tensed, and he quickly told everyone to hide and not make any noise, while ordering two soldiers from a squad to go and investigate.
After waiting for another ten minutes, the sound of a vehicle braking was heard outside the woods, and then the two soldiers who went to investigate came in with Li Meng and others.
When Zhong Lei saw that his battalion commander and company commander had arrived, he quickly came out from behind a large tree, stood in front of the two men, saluted, and said, "Battalion Commander, Company Commander!"
After Li Meng and the 7th Company Commander Dong Guoqiang returned the salute, Li Meng asked, "Where's Major Xu? How's he doing?"
Zhong Lei said, "It's in the back, the situation is not good!"
"Doctor!" Li Meng turned around and shouted when he heard it.
When the group saw Xu Jianguo lying unconscious on a stretcher, everyone's face showed a solemn expression. He was disheveled, and his tattered military uniform had been soaked in blood. He looked extremely miserable.
Two military doctors hurried forward, squatted down and began to check Xu Jianguo's wound. They took out a pair of scissors from the medicine box they carried with them and cut open the clothes on Xu Jianguo's right shoulder. When the wound was completely exposed to the air, bursts of exclamations were heard all around.
The two doctors ignored the crowd. They lifted up Xu Jianguo's right side and put him in a left-side lying position. One of them held him while the other continued to cut his clothes with scissors.
As the cloth fell off, the penetrating wound on Xu Jianguo's back, as big as a baby's fist, appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Hiss!" A sound of people sucking in a breath of cold air was heard.
When Li Meng and Dong Guoqiang saw the wound, they couldn't help but look at each other, and both saw solemn expressions in each other's eyes.
It was not until this time that Zhong Lei and others realized how serious Xu Jianguo's injuries were. Professor Jiang Ende of the scientific expedition team also frowned at this time, and several female college students burst into tears when they saw this scene.
At this moment, everyone felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on their hearts, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.
But there was one exception. Xu Jianguo was sleeping soundly, but was awakened by the engine sound of Li Meng and his friends' car. However, he did not open his eyes, but continued to pretend to be unconscious. After all, it was not yet time for him to be full of energy, otherwise he would most likely be taken away for dissection.
He pretended to be unconscious and let the two doctors move his body around. After a long time, his wounds were finally treated simply.
"Doctor, how is it?" Li Meng asked.
"Captain Li, the injured person has lost too much blood and is now in a coma. He must be sent to the hospital immediately!" A doctor put down the gauze in his hand and spoke.
"Okay! Everyone, get in the car and go back to the base. Let the wounded and the scientific expedition team go first. Hurry!" Li Meng agreed, then turned and shouted to the soldiers around him.
"yes!"
In just over ten minutes, everyone got on the cars, and then five military vehicles, including Xu Jianguo's jeep, drove towards the Rongcheng base.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, two jeeps drove into the courtyard of the Chengdu Military Region Hospital. The medical staff who had been waiting at the door for a long time immediately stepped forward, helped Xu Jianguo, who was still in a pretended coma, down, put him on a stretcher, and quickly went to the operating room.
When the anesthetic was injected into his body, Xu Jianguo, who had been pretending for a long time, finally fell into a deep sleep.
