Chapter 2031: Valley of Death
Mingyue's tears came down in a flash, she was frightened for so many years, she thought that the country had given up on them. Now it seems that they are not, they just haven't been found. Although this time is a bit long, she doesn't blame anyone. Because her appearance has become so much, even her biological parents, siblings can't recognize her when they see her now. And being within the 1 Terror Organization, she has always been cautious, how can those who are looking for her find her. Even if she is found, she will not admit her identity so easily.
When Jacob saw his mother crying, he cried with a pout, and his little hand was hard to insert the tears on Mingyue's face: "Mom, why are you crying, don't cry, don't cry, Jacob will be obedient in the future, and he won't make you angry......"
Mingyue hugged the little girl tightly, tears were still flowing, but there was a smile on her face that she had never seen before: "Mom, this is happy!" ”
Li Fangjie looked at Mingyue and sighed: "Mingyue, you have become too much." If Comrade Yang Luo hadn't told you your identity, I couldn't believe that the beautiful and gentle talented girl back then was you. ”
Mingyue was surprised and said, "Ambassador Li, do you know me?" ”
Li Fangjie smiled: "It seems that you forgot about me, I was a classmate with your father, and I once went to your house and saw you once." ”
Mingyue looked at Li Fangjie in a daze, the more she looked at it, the more familiar she felt, but she couldn't remember it.
Li Fangjie said: "I also have a name, called Li Donglai!" ”
"Ahh Mingyue was surprised again, "The guest is from the east, with Baling rain on his clothes, are you the uncle from the east?" ”
"Haha......" Li Fangjie laughed, "You finally remembered." ”
Mingyue nodded: "I remembered!" ”
"Yes!" Li Fangjie said, "I like calligraphy because of your father, when he went to school, your father became famous." After graduating, we went our separate ways and never got in touch. Later, because of the job transfer, I returned to Beijing, and I met your father by chance, and then I went to your house, which is the time I met you. ”
Mingyue said: "I know, you also wrote a sub-word. My dad and you are good friends, we haven't seen you for nearly twenty years, and when we suddenly met by chance, he mentioned a poem under your words. It was a guest from the East, dressed in Baling Rain, and you asked me to call you Uncle Donglai at that time. ”
Now Li Fangjie can really confirm that Mingyue's identity will not be fake, his eyes are red with excitement, the corners of his eyes begin to moisten slowly, and he said in a choked voice: "I only knew about you when I received the above task, and I met your father that night, when he cried like a child in front of me." Say to me, I will find you no matter what, I will see people in life, and I will see corpses in death. ”
Mingyue's tears flowed down again: "Are my dad and my mom okay?" ”
Li Fangjie took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions and said, "It's all good, it's just your mother's ......"
Mingyue suddenly became anxious: "What's wrong with my mother?" ”
Li Fangjie hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just that her eyes can't see." ”
"How so?" Mingyue hugged Jacob tightly, grabbed the little girl's shoulders with both hands, and the little girl shouted, "Mom, you scratch me." ”
"Ahh Mingyue hurriedly let go, "Mom didn't mean it, does it hurt?" ”
The little girl shook her head: "It doesn't hurt!" ”
Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief: "Uncle Donglai, how can my mother's eyes be ......?"
Li Fangjie said: "After Comrade Jin Jiachun died, the country lost news of you, and your mother washed her face with tears all day long, and slowly her eyes became unable to see. ”
The relationship between Li Fangjie and Mingyue surprised Yang Luo, and he didn't bother them. After so many years, Mingyue has completely lost contact with China, of course she is eager to know the situation at home, and Li Fangjie also wants to understand Mingyue's living status in the past few years, and then report to China, and the most important thing is to inform Mingyue's parents.
After more than two hours, the two of them finished their conversation, and Li Fangjie said a little embarrassed: "Comrade Yang Luo, I'm really embarrassed, it's too rude." ”
Yang Luo smiled slightly: "It's okay, we really didn't expect that you still have such a relationship, maybe this is God's arrangement." ”
Li Fangjie was in a good mood, and nodded happily when he heard Yang Luo's words: "Yes, this is God's arrangement." After speaking, he looked at the time, "Ah, it's more than three o'clock in the morning, I'll arrange the room immediately, you can rest first, and leave the rest to me, it is estimated that you will be able to return to China in three days." ”
Yang Luo shook his head: "They go back to China, and we can't go back yet." ”
"Oh?" Li Fangjie said, "You still have a task? ”
Yang Luo said: "Maihe Sumu Aishan wants to enter the country with the virus, and I want to take people to chase them, hoping to eliminate them halfway." ”
Li Fangjie pondered for a while and said: "Afghanistan has a very special geographical location, not only connected to our country, but also linked to Pakistan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, they can enter other countries first, and then enter our country. There are many routes to walk, and it is not easy to track them, it is even more difficult than climbing to the sky. ”
Yang Luo said: "We are not sure, let's do our best to obey the destiny of heaven, if we can't catch up, we can only notify the country to strictly guard it." ”
"Okay!" Li Fangjie said, "What do you need me to do? ”
Yang Luo said: "Weapons and cars are needed!" ”
"No problem!" "However, your identity is very sensitive, especially in such a matter, and it is impossible for me to contact the Afghan government and get their help." Therefore, I can only provide you with weapons and vehicles, and you can only rely on yourself for other things, and I can't do anything about it. ”
Yang Luo said: "That's enough! ”
Li Fangjie said: "Okay, when are you leaving?" ”
Yang Luo said: "Maihe Sumu Aishan has been walking for three days, we must leave tomorrow night, otherwise it will be difficult to catch up with them." ”
Li Fangjie didn't say anything, and ordered the orderly staff to take Li Yun, Lan Yunduo, Li Jinlong, Mingyue and Jacob to rest, but Abu wanted to stay alive or dead, and Mingyue didn't insist.
Yang Luo saw that everyone was gone, and said, "Taozi, what about the map, we will study the route." ”
Li Tao took out the map and spread it on the coffee table, and everyone gathered around and looked at the map carefully. After a long time, Sun Manjiang focused his finger on the corner of the map: "Here!" ”
Wu Chaoyang's eyes lit up: "Valley of Death, maybe they will really go here!" ”
The madman said, "This place is too dangerous, would they really take such a big risk to walk here?" ”
Long Xin touched his chin and said, "It's because of the danger here that it is possible for them to cross the border." ”
Yang Luo knocked his head and said, "This person is very adventurous, so let's make a bet." ”
The Valley of Death, also known as the Panjshir Valley, is a long, narrow valley in northeastern Afghanistan. It is located in the southern foothills of the Hindu Kush mountain range, about 80 kilometers from Kabul. Its northern entrance controls the famous Salang Tunnel, which is the choke point of Kabul's strategic access to the border with the former Soviet Union. It is strategically important to control the key points from Kabul to the north-eastern provinces, as well as to Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
The valley is made up of a number of small valleys, surrounded by lofty mountains, which stretch from the north of Parwan province along the Hindu Kush Mountains to the southwest, and is about 150 kilometers long and 10 kilometers wide. The Panjshir River, a tributary of the Kabul River, flows through the valley floor and has a rugged terrain that makes it difficult to navigate. The peaks on both sides are stacked, the mountains are steep, and the snow is covered all year round, and more than 20 kilometers south of the valley mouth is the Bagram Air Base.
The reason why Panjshir Valley is famous and very dangerous is that it is known as the Valley of Death. Because during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, it was an important base for Afghan guerrillas to resist the Soviet army. Except for the only passage, there are mines everywhere, and if you want to smuggle out of the country here, you really have to pin your head to the waistband of your pants.
Li Tao said: "Then take a gamble, it's just that they really want to go here, it's been three days, and it is estimated that they have gone deep into the mountains, and it really takes a little effort to find them." ”
"That's it!" Yang Luo waved his hand, "Let's go and rest!" ”
An orderly had been waiting outside, and when he saw Yang Luo and them come out, he took them to the room that had been arranged a long time ago. After Yang Luo entered the room, he found that there were still some snacks in the room. It is estimated that Li Fangjie knew that they had not eaten and prepared it for them.
Yang Luo was not polite, he ate all the things in three times and five by two, then wiped his mouth with his hands, and fell asleep on the bed without even taking off his clothes.
knew that at about three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, a knock on the door outside woke Yang Luo, turned over and got out of bed, opened the door and saw Li Tao yawning and beckoning.
"It's time to eat, we should go too!"
"I'll wash my face, you go down first!" After speaking, he turned around and walked into the bathroom, which had all the toiletries.
Yang Luo walked out of the room after washing his face and brushing his teeth, and went downstairs to find that everyone was waiting for him below, and Li Fangjie was also there.
"Comrade Yang Luo, let's go, let's go eat first!"
Yang Luo nodded: "Are things ready?" ”
Li Fangjie said: "It's all ready, what time will you go?" ”
Yang Luo said: "Leave after eating!" ”
When a group of people came to the restaurant, the food was already on the table, Li Fangjie made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Come on, come on, everyone sit." The conditions here are limited, so I can only simply eat a light meal, and when I return to China in the future, I will invite you to have a good meal, which can be regarded as reparation. ”
Yang Luo said with a smile: "Ambassador Li, you are too polite, we just need to eat enough, and we don't pay so much attention." ”
The meal was eaten very quietly and quickly, even the ghost fox, blood angel and red leaves did not waste time, and put down the dishes and chopsticks in more than ten minutes.
Four dilapidated off-road vehicles were already parked outside, and Li Fangjie said: "The weapons and supplies are all on the vehicle, as well as cotton clothes. After speaking, he took out a thick passport on his body, "This is what I asked people to make overnight." ”
Yang Luo took it and looked at it, and said with a smile: "The embassy also has masters." ”
Li Fangjie laughed: "As long as I admit it, it is true." ”
Yang Luo nodded: "That's right!" ”
At this time, Li Tao and the others had already gotten into the car, and Yang Luo said: "Okay, Ambassador Li, I won't say anything polite, I'll get in the car too." ”
Li Fangjie stretched out his hand and shook Yang Luo: "Have a good journey, I wish you a victory, I am waiting for your good news." ”
"Thank you!" Yang Luo was about to get into the car after speaking, and suddenly saw Li Yun, Lan Yunduo and Mingyue walking out, "Yang Luo!" ”
Yang Luo turned around, and the blue clouds trotted over, staring at Yang Luo's face with beautiful eyes for a while before saying, "Be careful!" ”
Yang Luo clearly saw the worry in Lan Yunduo's eyes, patted her shoulder, and said softly, "Don't worry!" ”
Li Yun came over and said, "See you when you go back to China!" ”
"See you back home!" Yang Luo waved his hand, lowered his head and got into the car, "Let's go!" ”
