Chapter 2716 In Danger
The commander-in-chief believed that they would definitely be fine. Even if something happened to them, it would be a small matter. Abrasions, falls… These were all small injuries that wouldn\'t hurt their bones.
The military police of the Tibetan forest were already in position. The military police that entered the mountain were also in position. They were just waiting for the military\'s order to take off immediately.
"We\'re not going? How can that be?"
When the political commissars heard their regimental commander\'s latest order, they were filled with questions. "The mountain has collapsed and we\'ve lost contact with the people inside. We don\'t know the number of people inside. If we don\'t go… What if they\'re waiting for us to save them?"
"This is a matter of life and death. We can\'t be careless! How can we not go?"
The political commissar was very anxious. He still remembered the soldier he talked to some time ago.
Commander Ding Weizhong, who was in charge of patrolling the Tibetan forest, said in a low voice, "It\'s not something we can decide. The military called directly. When the name was announced, my back immediately broke out in cold sweat."
"The military? Who made you break out in a cold sweat?"
"The commander-in-chief called me personally and ordered me to standby. There\'s no need to go and reinforce them immediately." Regimental Commander Ding took out a pack of cigarettes from his drawer. He didn\'t light one up. Instead, he placed it under his nose and sniffed it. He didn\'t have a smoking addiction but he liked to smoke a few cigarettes in the past. After being transferred here, as a regimental commander, he had to give up smoking.
The political commissar sitting opposite him didn\'t speak for a long time. After a while, he said softly, "Are you sure? Did you hear wrong?"
"I\'m not mistaken. It was indeed Commander-in-chief Xia. He gave the order personally." Regimental Commander Ding took a deep breath of the cigarette and immediately placed it in the drawer. "Ask the team to be on standby. If anything happens, we can set off immediately."
"Okay!" The political commissar nodded. He frowned. "Even the company\'s commander-in-chief gave the order personally. What military unit do you think the military unit that entered the mountain is? Is it really an ordinary military unit? Why do I feel that something is amiss?"
After he finished speaking, there was silence in the office.
After a while, Regimental Commander Ding sighed and said, "The red file our unit received is an ordinary military unit. Regardless of whether there\'s a problem or not, the military unit that entered the mountain is just an ordinary military unit that\'s competing its outdoor survival training."
"Okay, you can rest in the office tonight. I\'ll go back to the office to rest too. Be vigilant and don\'t miss the call." The political commissar didn\'t ask anymore. No matter what military unit it was, it had nothing to do with them.
The rain was still falling outside. It was quite heavy. When the window was closed, one could still hear the sound of heavy rain. The political commissar got up and looked at the dark and rainy night outside. His gaze narrowed slightly. "The mountain has collapsed deep in the mountain. The people outside should have left. Call the village outside and ask about the situation. I don\'t think the weather will get better soon."
"There\'s no call from the village, so the situation should be alright. I\'ll make a call just in case." Regimental Commander Ding looked at the sky outside. It was dark, heavy, and there was heavy rain. He felt depressed. "All the military forces must be concentrated. Only the detachment that entered the mountain must be left behind."
