Yu Xiangnian intuitively felt that Cheng Jingmo must be facing great difficulties, possibly a life-or-death situation.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have dreamed of him all night long. He didn't say a word and was just busy with the things in his hands.
When Yu Xiangnian arrived at the headquarters, he couldn't even get through the main door.
Although she introduced herself as the commander-in-chief's daughter and had something important to discuss with the commander-in-chief, she was very happy.
But the sentry standing guard at the door had not seen her, so he just asked her to wait at the door and sent someone in to report.
Later, Yu Jiashun's guard Xiao Zhao came out and took her in.
The first thing Yu Xiangnian asked when he saw Xiao Zhao was, "Any news about Cheng Jingmo and the others?"
Xiao Zhao replied: "From what I understand, they haven't given any news yet."
Yu Xiangnian took a quick step and started jogging. "Then take me to see my dad."
Xiao Zhao led Yu Xiangnian inside and said, "The commander-in-chief is in a meeting. Please go to the reception room and wait for a moment."
"I have something urgent to tell you. Can you go in and let them know for me?" Yu Xiangnian asked anxiously.
"That won't work. There are meeting rules. No one can enter unless it's an important matter."
"My matter is very important. It involves the safety of Cheng Jingmo and the others."
Xiao Zhao thought for a moment and said, "No."
He didn't think that Yu Xiangnian could get the news about Cheng Jingmo and the others from anywhere.
As they were talking, Xiao Zhao had already brought Yu Xiangnian to the reception room.
Yu Xiangnian stood at the door and didn't go in. "Where is the meeting room? I'll find it myself!"
Xiao Zhao still said the same thing, "No one is allowed in."
Yu Xiangnian turned around and walked away, following the aisle, looking for meeting rooms one by one.
Xiao Zhao stepped forward to stop her, "Comrade Xiao Yu, please don't embarrass me!"
Yu Xiangnian pleaded, "I don't want to embarrass you. I just want you to go in and tell them that I really have news about Cheng Jingmo and the others."
Xiao Zhao: “···” He hesitated, unable to make a decision.
Yu Xiangnian added, "Every minute we delay, they're in greater danger. When it comes to their lives, I won't say anything irresponsible. I promise I really do have news about them. Believe me!"
Xiao Zhao's eyebrows twitched.
Although everything seemed normal to the commander-in-chief on the surface, Xiao Zhao had followed him for so many years and had noticed every subtle change in him.
The commander-in-chief has been eating less recently and drinking stronger tea. His hair has turned a lot whiter and is falling out more.
Even if other people in the army had lost contact for such a long time, the commander-in-chief would definitely be anxious and worried, let alone his son and son-in-law.
Xiao Zhao made up his mind, "Just wait here for me, I'll go and inform you!"
Yu Jiashun was meeting with the military district leaders to discuss how to find them.
Everyone no longer has hope that Cheng Jingmo and the others will survive.
This is the seventy-fourth day since they left and the fifty-sixth day since they lost contact.
If they were still alive, they would have found a way to contact headquarters, but headquarters has tried to contact them every day and has not been able to do so yet.
Most likely they had an accident, the radio broke down, and they were injured or killed.
If you get injured, you won't be able to survive for a few days in such a harsh living environment.
Even if they were not injured, the food they brought would only sustain them for forty days at most. In this winter, with food scarce, they would not be able to hold on due to hunger.
So, the number of children born to Cheng Jingmo and his family is almost zero.
But, even if they have sacrificed their lives, we must confirm that they have indeed sacrificed their lives. Even if we cannot bring back their bodies, we must bring back their belongings and suicide notes.
The problem now is that finding them is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
The forest was vast, and the headquarters had no idea of the situation inside, nor did they know the exact location of Cheng Jingmo and the others.
Some people suggested that a large-scale search of the mountains should be carried out to eliminate the criminal gangs operating in this border area.
Some people objected, saying that such a large-scale operation would not only be time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly, but would also be tantamount to indirectly notifying the criminal gangs and asking them to flee.
Just when everyone was in a dilemma, Xiao Zhao pushed open the door and said in a loud voice, "Report! Commander-in-Chief, there is something important to report to you."
Everyone looked towards the door, their faces revealing dissatisfaction and irritation. Even Yu Jiashun, who usually kept his emotions to himself, showed dissatisfaction in his eyes.
"What's the matter?" Yu Jiashun asked in a deep voice.
"This matter needs to be reported to you separately!"
Yu Jiashun glanced at everyone and said, "The meeting will be suspended for ten minutes."
Yu Jiashun stood up and walked out of the meeting room. "What's the matter?"
Xiao Zhao keenly noticed the displeasure in Yu Jiashun's voice. Fortunately, he saw Yu Xiangnian who was just at the entrance of the corridor.
Xiao Zhao lowered his voice and said, "Your daughter is looking for you. She said she has news about Deputy Headmaster Cheng and the others."
"Nonsense!" Yu Jiashun also saw Yu Xiangnian, glared at her fiercely, and prepared to turn back to the meeting room.
Yu Xiangnian quickly ran over and grabbed Yu Jiashun's arm, "Dad, listen to me first!"
Looking at Yu Xiangnian's anxious and serious expression, Yu Jiashun suppressed his anger and asked, "Where did you get the news about them?"
Yu Xiangnian: “···” This question is difficult to answer!
"Dad, Cheng Jingmo and the others are still alive!" She avoided the question and said, "Their radio is broken and they can't contact headquarters."
Yu Jiashun patiently asked again, "Where did you get the news?"
Yu Xiangnian: “…”
After hesitating for a moment, he said weakly, "Cheng Jingmo appeared in my dream."
"Nonsense!" Yu Jiashun shook her hand away. "Yu Xiangnian, if you don't know the seriousness of the matter again, I will punish you!"
Yu Xiangnian grabbed him again, sincere and anxious, "Dad, please believe me! Even though it's a dream, it's real! If I'm talking nonsense, you can do whatever you want to me!"
