Chapter 1774 Prepare For The Worst
The Ground Aviation’s Regimental Commander, who was staring attentively at the map, twisted around, his eyes were locked as though he hadn’t heard what the soldier had just said clearly, and asked in a hurried tone: “What did you just say?”
“Black-20 had just flown past Aroda Canyon four minutes ago, and is now preparing to head towards a supply station, and see if they could complete landing.” The soldier immediately repeated himself.
Aroda Canyon!
Ground Aviation’s Regimental Commander quickly turned around, he bent his waist as he pointed the pencil in his hands towards Aroda Canyon, a moment later, the Regimental Commander’s eyes glowed, “Immediately contact Black-20, order them to fly over Kudida Foothills, and start a blanket search after landing for the missing Art Troupe!”
Right now, it was Black-20 that was closest to the area where the Art Troupe had gone missing!
Aroda Canyon is a canyon that had formed in the ice age; in the Summer, the gurgling river was formed from all the melted snow, the temperature of the river was bone-chilling year-round. When it was Winter, the river surface would be covered in a thick layer of ice, and it was safe to walk on top of it.
The helicopter flying over Aroda Canyon would arrive at a specific supply station; if they flew higher, then they would enter the passage towards Shenxianwan Outpost: Kudi Pass.
To head towards Shenxianwan outpost, there were three Passes that needed to be crossed, Kudi Pass, Mazar Pass, and Kirgizjangal Pass.
After these three passes, you would enter ‘Kangxiwar Hero Cemetery’ where more than a hundred heroes had protected when they were alive, and the place where they slept forever in Xinjiang, from here, Shenxianwan outpost was less than two hundred kilometers away.
Meanwhile, the Art troupe that had been lost was on this route between Kudi Pass and Mazar Pass.
Xinjiang in January was covered in white snow, the wind raged, and sometimes avalanches would occur; Ground Aviation’s Regimental Commander didn’t quite understand why the leaders would bring a group of delicately pretty girls to give condolences to Shenxianwan Outpost at a time like this.
They said they wanted to celebrate Chinese New Year together with the soldiers in the outpost. However, Chinese New Year was still a month away, with all the snowstorms and avalanches, every time the Ground Aviation Regimental Commander thought about that, he couldn’t help but to imagine the worst, are they trying to give condolences, or are they coming here… to die?
That was what he thought, but he cannot voice it out loud, now that they had lost contact with a heavy snowstorm about, the Ground Aviation’s Regimental Commander only felt that his hot, pulsing heart was about to freeze into a popsicle.
All soldiers in Black-20 currently had tense expressions, Ye Jian received a parachute passed to her, she glanced at the hatch with a heavy expression, then quietly asked Li Jinnian: “If we parachuted out, what are the pilots gonna do?”
She had clearly heard the aircrew stating they will keep the helicopter intact!
Black-20 wasn’t an aircraft manufactured by our country and was imported from overseas; for a pilot, their aircraft was their lives!
“Training a pilot who could adapt to the climate in the highlands who was also experienced in flying in the highlands isn’t easy, they won’t let themselves die while trying to keep their patrol helicopter safe.” She was a bit nervous; her hands that were tightly hugging the parachute were pale; Li Jinnian didn’t think too much and patted the back of her hand gently, “Don’t be afraid, it’s still not the worst outcome yet.”
Ye Jian gently shook her head, “I’m not scared, I’m worried for the pilots, when the brothers from Ground Aviation were discussing, they had come to an unanimous agreement of keeping the patrol helicopter intact. I’m just worried, if the worst possible outcome happened, can the pilots eject themselves in time.”
She didn’t feel afraid; after putting on the military uniform, she already had the resignation to die at any time.
Facing her reply, Li Jinnian was a bit surprised; he thought she was afraid. Instead, she was more worried about her comrade’s future… Female soldier Blue Bird, she could always make him surprised inadvertently.
