2:57 AM! The darkness before dawn has arrived. It is pitch dark and dark without any light.
At this time, Si Yiyan and his team had already rushed to a mile outside the small village to deploy, and the reconnaissance personnel had quietly sneaked into the small village to conduct reconnaissance activities.
Si Yiyan crawled on the ground in a prostrate posture, quietly waiting for the reconnaissance results.
The reconnaissance continues.
At this time, the communicator in Si Yiyan's ear rang: "Jiu Shao, the thugs have issued a final demand to the Wen family to pay the ransom, otherwise they will kill the hostage. We have confirmed that Miss Wen is safe. We have intercepted their call signal and found that the thugs are in the village."
In the darkness, Si Yiyan's inky eyes flashed a glimmer of light: "Play the recorded call."
He wanted to find out what Xinya's current condition was.
There was a hesitation on the communicator's end.
But - at this moment, Si Yiyan's heart felt as if it was on fire, and he knew without any hesitation that Xinya must have been brutally assaulted again.
Soon, the recording of the previous call came from the communicator.
The crisp sound of slaps and faint cries of pain reminded him that Xinya was in a very bad situation. Perhaps the thugs were only holding her alive for a ransom.
Si Yiyan suddenly remembered that when he went to Country E alone holding the token of Xia Si's highest power, Lucifer was facing the crisis of disintegration and the company was in chaos.
The struggle for power takes place within Lucifer.
And he, a young master with no real power and no strength at all, became the target of public criticism.
He was captured, and in order to force him to surrender, those people tried to torture him by stabbing his throat and injecting poison into his throat with a straw. He still remembers the pain when the liquid flowed down his throat and into his chest and lungs. The liquid wantonly destroyed his throat, chest and lungs.
However, he eventually escaped.
At that time, he covered his throat, trying hard to stop the blood from flowing out of his throat until his father's loyal subordinates came to rescue him.
He underwent a major repair surgery on his throat, but while the operation was successful, it left him with serious sequelae. He could not eat spicy food, otherwise it would cause chest tightness and suffocation, leading to shock, and even chest and throat bleeding and sudden death. He has undergone three operations in the past few years.
At this moment, he felt a fishy and sweet taste in his throat. He tried to swallow hard, but still couldn't stop vomiting.
Gu Yuehan's heart suddenly tightened, and a faint smell of blood filled his nostrils: "Jiu Shao, what's wrong with you?"
Even though he possessed an amazing night vision ability, in the darkness before dawn, he had no way of seeing Jiu Shao's physical condition. He could only guess that he might have vomited blood!
Si Yiyan whispered: "I'm fine!"
He vomited out the suppressed fishy-sweet taste in his throat, and felt his chest was much more comfortable. He rubbed his splitting headache and felt that his current state might affect his judgment.
Si Yiyan asked: "How long will it take for Xu Chenyu's people to arrive?"
Now it has come to a life-and-death moment. Although he is confident that Xu Chenyu can arrive as soon as possible, he is still a little unsure.
Gu Yuehan replied in a low voice: "We can be there in two minutes."
Si Yiyan nodded.
At this time, the person in charge of reconnaissance came over quietly and said, "Jiu Shao, we found a vehicle at the door of one of the houses in the village. The indentations on the ground showed that the thugs were in that house. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, we did not try to investigate."
Si Yiyan said: "Well done."
Gu Yuehan quickly took out the 3D environmental simulation map made by satellite positioning and handed it to Si Yiyan.
Si Yiyan said: "Find out where the thugs are."
The scout picked up the picture and quickly marked it.
Si Yiyan held the picture, his brain working at high speed, and began to think about the best deployment plan.
…
At this time, Xu Chenyu had already received news from the rescue team that stayed behind in the Wen family, and had confirmed that the thugs were at their destination - a small village!
Xu Chenyu was racing against time. When they were two miles away from the small village, they had already changed to walking and were sneaking towards the small village on foot.
"Captain, we have reached the outskirts of the small village."
Xu Chenyu asked: "What time is it now? How long will it take until the thugs demand the ransom?"
"It's 2:59 AM now. There are still six minutes until the ransom is paid!"
The thugs had taken the initiative to add another five minutes, so they now have plenty of time.
Xu Chenyu breathed a sigh of relief: "Everyone stop and rest for one minute."
Fortunately, we made it in time!
Xu Chenyu only felt a dryness in his throat, which was sore and dry when he breathed. The sweat on his face slid down his forehead and the salty sweat flowed into his eyes, causing a salty and astringent pain in his eyes.
He tilted his head back and drank big gulps of water. The water slid down his throat, bringing a cool and refreshing feeling. However, the refreshing feeling did not last long as he was choked by the water which went into his lungs.
In this situation, he didn't even dare to make a coughing sound.
I could only crawl on the ground, covering my mouth tightly, letting the choking feeling spread through my chest and my throat feel a burning pain.
He was choked and tears flowed down his cheeks!
The rush just now was a high-speed, barrier-free rush. Such a high-intensity rush was no less than a jogging car. No one complained because they were racing against life.
"Battalion Commander, are you okay?" Seeing that he was in great pain, his comrades around him couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Xu Chenyu's voice was hoarse, and his throat membrane was choking and hurting. He whispered: "It's okay! Don't worry."
The voice was husky and crackly, and it didn't sound like his own at all.
A minute later, Xu Chenyu received the exact location of the thugs from the headquarters. He quickly took out the simulation map and began to deploy: "Snipers, get ready."
Several snipers immediately began to check their equipment: "Stand by!"
Xu Chenyu quickly issued a series of instructions: "Immediately find a suitable sniping position to ambush and wait, remember that the safety of the hostages is the most important thing."
Several snipers quickly and silently disappeared into the darkness. It took less than ten seconds from giving the order to leaving.
"Armed men, ready."
"Stand by!"
"Infiltrate the village immediately and find a suitable location to rescue the hostages. Do not act without authorization. The safety of the hostages must be the top priority."
Xu Chenyu issued deployment orders one after another. At this time, there were still four minutes left before paying the ransom.
Xu Chenyu added: "Contact the Wen family immediately and ask them to pay the ransom according to the plan."
"yes!"
Xu Chenyu's eyes penetrated the darkness that was as dark as ink: "The rest of you, follow me."
Wen Xinya, I finally got here, don't worry... I will definitely save you, I will!
