At the western border of the motherland.
At this moment, the communication of the Dagu Glacier Garrison Base had been connected to the Western Military Region's combat conference room.
An old general with gray hair and a dignified aura appeared on the screen.
The relevant experts and scholars were arranged on two tables in front of him.
Tang Chen, Zheng Yuan, and everyone in the meeting room saluted.
"Chief!"
The general on the other end of the screen was the general of the Western Military Region, the commander of the rescue operation.
The old general said in a deep voice.
"Comrades, please take a seat!"
Tang Chen, Zheng Yuan, and the others also sat in front of the screen.
The old general went straight to the point with a serious expression.
" I believe all of you are aware of the sudden situation."
"The Western Military Region has officially established a rescue headquarters."
"I'll be the commander-in-chief."
" Set up an on-site rescue center at Dagu Glacier garrison base."
"We've also invited relevant experts and scholars."
"There's no time to lose."
" While you are rearranging your equipment,"
" Academician Zhang, an expert on Mount Qomolangma, please quickly introduce the key points of this rescue mission."
As soon as he finished speaking, on the right side of the big screen.
A slightly smaller screen lit up.
The screen showed a 3D simulation of Mount Qomolangma and its surrounding terrain.
Academician Zhang started the introduction of the 3D simulation of Mount Everest.
At this moment.
The soldier who was preparing for departure walked into the conference room and came to Tang Chen's side.
"Captain, the equipment is ready before departure. You can put it on and set off at any time."
Tang Chen asked them to transport all the equipment to the combat conference room and change it on the spot!
Save every minute and second!
Under Tang Chen's instructions, twelve sets of mountaineering equipment and tools were sent up.
Everyone immediately took off their clothes and changed into their mountaineering suits.
On the other end of the screen, the old general saw Tang Chen and the others seize the time and prepare to set off in an orderly manner.
He nodded slightly, his eyes revealing a trace of admiration.
Such proactive soldiers were good soldiers who could overcome difficulties and complete missions.
Commander Zheng Yuan quickly listened attentively to the introduction on the screen in case Tang Chen and the others missed out on any important content.
In fact, Tang Chen had no problem multitasking. Changing equipment would not delay him from listening to the expert's briefing.
Moreover, Tang Chen was confident that his judgment of the situation on Mount Qomolangma was definitely not worse than the experts in the military command center.
The weather on Mount Qomolangma was ever-changing, and the situation would often undergo a major reversal in just a few breaths.
Even with real-time weather monitoring and communication.
However, a round trip and analysis would probably take a few minutes.
Otherwise, the mountaineering expedition team would not have been unaware of the sudden snowstorm.
Tang Chen was extremely suspicious.
The blizzard that the expedition team encountered was the same as the one they encountered in the Immense Forest Snowfield!
However, Tang Chen still paid attention to Academician Zhang's explanation. After all, human lives were at stake and could not be trifled with.
As the 3D map of Mount Qomolangma zoomed in on the screen.
A long and wide snowy mountain valley appeared in front of everyone.
This was the Great Snow Valley of Mount Qomolangma, located at the westernmost edge of the Dagu Glacier.
It was also the starting point for climbing Mount Qomolangma from the north, where the base camp was located.
A white-lettered geographical and weather note for this area appeared on the screen.
[Mount everest base camp]
Altitude: 5800 meters
Temperatures: -16 ° C
Wind Speed: 8m/s
[O2 Concentration: 11.2%]
"Comrades, we will depart from your station."
" Arriving at the starting point of climbing Mount Qomolangma, Mount Qomolangma Base Camp."
"Distance: 98 kilometers."
" Unable to drive due to terrain and weather."
" A rapid march will take 8 to 9 hours."
Tang Chen explained through the microphone.
"Academician Zhang, we have high-quality horses at our station."
"With the strength of a horse, we can arrive within two hours!”
Academician Zhang nodded and continued.
" When we reach the base camp, you'll have to climb and walk the entire way."
" On the way to Mount Qomolangma, a total of five points were set up."
"And the scientific research team is currently trapped at the fifth point at the top."
Then, the screen quickly moved to the top of Mount Qomolangma.
At the bottom of the pyramid, there was a flat area.
That was Point No. 5, where he could stop for a while.
The second step was about a hundred meters above the fifth point.
The top of Mount Qomolangma was just a ladder away.
Academician Zhang zoomed in on the spot where the scientific research team was trapped.
At the same time, the geographical and weather notes appeared on the screen.
[Second step]
Altitude: 8680 meters
Temperatures: -35 ° C
Wind Speed: 30.1m/s
[O2 Concentration: 4.2%]
"Point number five is only 200 meters away from the second step."
" When the expedition team was climbing the second step and about to reach the summit of Mount Qomolangma, they encountered a strong storm."
" Currently, there are heavy casualties. Most of the supplies have been blown away and lost."
"They are relying on the remaining supplies and equipment to hold on and wait for rescue."
Academician Zhang finished speaking.
Another biomedicine expert added.
"According to the information sent back from the scene of the rescue,"
"The most serious problem facing the expedition team is extreme low temperature and lack of oxygen."
"Although there is a small place to avoid the blizzard for the time being."
"But there's not enough oxygen."
" Estimated remaining rescue time: 48 hours."
" And the golden rescue time is 24 hours…"
An intellectual female meteorologist with glasses pushed her glasses and added.
" As it's currently out of season for mountain climbing, the best window for mountain climbing has been lost with the arrival of the blizzard."
" The weather conditions have prevented helicopters and other high-altitude vehicles from reaching."
" Meteorology shows that the air pressure and turbulence have increased significantly. Even if the blizzard passes, we can't rule out other unexpected situations."
The geography expert added.
"Due to the blizzard, all snow layers may be unstable."
" The chances of encountering an avalanche and landslide during the rescue are several times higher than usual."
"Anti-slip and safety measures must be fully implemented!”
the rescue team expert suggested.
"The number of rescue teams is recommended to be controlled below 15 people."
"Bring some backup supplies."
...
In just a few minutes, after several experts explained the situation on the spot and the key points of the rescue, the small screen turned off.
The image was once again focused on the old general.
the old general said frankly.
"Warriors, you should know how difficult and dangerous the rescue is."
"The expedition team is in danger to complete the comprehensive scientific expedition to Mount Qomolangma."
"To be honest, this rescue can be said to be a narrow escape."
"But!"
"As a soldier, it is my duty and mission to rescue my countrymen."
"Your soldiers stationed in Dagu Glacier are all good!”
"You will definitely complete the mission and return safely!”
"We believe in you!"
"The motherland believes in you!"
Tang Chen and the others had already put on their equipment.
He immediately stood up straight and saluted.
"Don't worry, Chief. I promise to complete the mission!”
The old general on the other side of the screen also stood up and saluted.
His eyes were moved.
It was approved by the higher-up military command.
Division Commander Zheng Yuan was temporarily appointed as the on-site dispatch chief of the garrison base.
He was in charge of coordinating the two sides.
After completing the rescue mission, everyone ran to the courtyard to gather.
The 12 groups of horses had already stopped in the courtyard.
Tang Chen took out the Rapid Recovery Potion from the system space and pretended to take it out from his pocket.
This was the potion that he had been rewarded with when he signed in at the Boundary Stele.
It could instantly restore a person's physical strength and energy.
Since the system had specially made it for Tang Chen, the effect of this medicine was very strong.
Tang Chen could instantly be revived with full health after drinking it, let alone others.
He walked into the kitchen and poured the potion into the kettle.
Then, he asked someone to bring twelve bowls and pour the hot water mixed with the potion.
The soldiers who were about to set off walked over and picked up their bowls.
Tang Chen said firmly.
"Brothers, we don't have any wine!"
"I'll drink water instead of wine today!"
"Let's complete the rescue and come back safely to watch the Spring Festival Gala!”
Everyone shouted in unison.
"Alright!"
He drank it all in one go.
After Qiu Yun finished drinking it, she smashed it.
He suddenly felt very energetic. The fatigue and tiredness from staying up late to carry out missions suddenly disappeared.
He was full of energy and motivation.
"D * mn, is Boss's spiritual practice water that effective?”
"Why do I feel like I'm energized after drinking it?"
"Am I too excited?"
Leng Feng, who was standing at the side, also felt this strange and surging power in his body. His entire body seemed to have come alive again.
Leng Feng looked at Tang Chen in confusion. He could not figure out the man in front of him.
He had too many secrets…
Everyone adjusted their equipment and nimbly mounted their horses.
At this time, many mothers came to the side of their sons who were riding horses.
She helped him straighten his saddle.
A thousand words were said without words.
He comforted his mother.
"Mom, it's okay."
"Captain said to wait for me to come back and watch the Spring Festival Gala with you!”
Many mothers could only nod with tears in their eyes.
Tang Chen didn't waste any time and directly raised his whip to hit him.
"Let's go!"
He rode a thousand horses towards the vast snowfield in the dark night.
Leng Feng followed closely behind.
The 12 of them rode their horses out of the garrison base and ran into the distance.
Bing Bing quickly chased after them with her camera in hand, but after a few steps, she could no longer see Tang Chen and the others.
She had wanted to find an opportunity to record a few seconds of video about Tang Chen and the others.
However, from the time Tang Chen returned to the time he set off again, he did not find an opportunity.
However, Bing Bing believed that Tang Chen and the others would come back.
It was just that there was not much time left before the Spring Festival Gala, so she had to hurry up and edit the video to send to Director Zhang.
In addition, Tang Chen and the others, who were out on a rescue mission, could not be seen in their live broadcast room for the time being.
Before the rescue operation was officially announced, all operations were kept confidential.
Countless netizens who saw Tang Chen and the others riding away did not know what kind of mission they were going to carry out.
However, they all sent a unified bullet screen and silently gave their blessings.
"Please return safely!”
