"Yes, there were two conflicting plans before. The first option was to directly attack the Snow Bear Headquarters and expose the enemy's plot. The second option was to make a detour and investigate the plot before taking action. If we adopt the first plan to attack the Snow Bear Base Camp, it's definitely a death sentence," Hong ihua said worriedly to Luo Zheng, her brows furrowed.
"The second plan is also a death sentence; Snow Fox has already proven this point. This plot is more complex than we imagined," Luo Zheng said with a grim expression. Thinking of how Snow Fox had encountered danger due to his plan, a heavy feeling pressed on his heart as if he couldn't breathe, causing great distress. He wished he could rush onto the battlefield imdiately to find Snow Fox and the others.
Hong ihua noticed Luo Zheng's mood and comforted him, "There's no need to bla yourself too much. We are soldiers, there are things we have to do, even knowing the risks. Let's focus on how to solve the problem."
"Although Pier's intelligence wasn't detailed enough, it's quite comprehensive. However, this intelligence may not be accurate. We need on-site reconnaissance. Where's the observation post 200 kiloters away? Where are the military strongholds within 50 kiloters? We must figure these out; otherwise, deploying troops would be a death sentence," Luo Zheng said seriously.
"What do you an?" Hong ihua faintly guessed Luo Zheng's idea but still confird by asking.
"You report the intelligence to headquarters directly. I will go alone to probe the battlefield," Luo Zheng stated earnestly. Seeing Hong ihua wanting to stop him, his eyes sharpened as he interrupted, "Don't persuade , I must go. We absolutely cannot deploy a single soldier without clarifying the situation."
"But it's too dangerous. Maybe you should bring one or two people along," Hong ihua seriously suggested.
"No need, my speed in the jungle is faster than everyone else's. Taking soone along would be inconvenient for reconnaissance. It's not a battle; we don't need so many people. Once I gather information on the enemy's observation posts and strongholds, we can determine a region for troop air deploynt. Without this clarity, deploying troops would just lead to death. Traversing the ground is too slow and still carries the risk of exposure. To win this battle, a sudden strike is essential. To achieve surprise, we must avoid the enemy's observation posts and satellite air deploynts," Luo Zheng explained earnestly.
"Alright, be careful," Hong ihua understood Luo Zheng's reasoning and recognized the pros and cons of this approach. Her gaze toward Luo Zheng turned admiring; knowing the danger and venturing alone to investigate, his courage and fearless spirit made people respect him.
"Let the ambassador prepare so equipnt for . I've got a pistol and Tiger Teeth dagger for weapons, that's enough. Prepare so food; I can't make a fire during reconnaissance, nor do I have ti to cook. Pack so dry rations, a pair of military boots, and a set of cold weather clothing. We'll gather other things on the battlefield; it's early winter now, and the Snow Bear Base Camp must be below minus ten degrees. Solve the cold and food problems, and that'll suffice," Luo Zheng said earnestly.
"No problem, that's simple. Anything else you need?" Hong ihua asked seriously.
"For communication, I have a signal device and an earpiece, which is adequate. I need a sleeping bag for extrely cold weather, a folding engineer's shovel, so salt, a military flashlight, a night vision device, a 20-ter-long special rope, and an unregistered car for travel. It's a long way from here. I don't need anything else," Luo Zheng thought for a mont and earnestly advised.
"Driving from here takes two to three days. I'll prepare so cash for you to use along the way. Lan Xing will plan the route for you. Having a car is convenient and won't easily expose you. If things beco impossible, don't force it. We'll find other ways; there will always be a solution," Hong ihua instructed earnestly.
"Don't worry, I understand; I won't take risks," Luo Zheng smiled and continued, "Once I reach the forest edge, I'll abandon the car and continue on foot; I shouldn't be exposed. At that point, I'll act accordingly. You should return soon and have the troops conduct extre cold weather combat training. It should take about a month or so; that should be enough ti for to figure things out."
"You'll stay there for a month on your own?" Hong ihua asked in surprise, seeing that Luo Zheng wasn't joking, she smiled bitterly and continued, "Now I realize how tough your frontline combat troops are. I used to think our spies had it hard, but compared to you, we're practically in paradise—driving cars, living in comfortable houses, enjoying good food. But, aren't you going to discuss this with Xue Er?"
"Discussing it would an I wouldn't go," Luo Zheng said definitively.
"True, given Xue Er's concern for you, she definitely wouldn't let you go alone. But what am I going to tell her when I get back? She'll kill ," Hong ihua said bitterly.
"I know her; she won't agree to my going, but once I'm gone, she'll choose to support and won't bla you. She understands my personality. Arrange it soon; it's best to leave overnight. If delayed, I fear it won't be possible. Pier won't betray us, but there's no guarantee that identities won't be exposed. The KGB's intelligence capability isn't just talk; there's no need to take unnecessary risks," Luo Zheng earnestly stated.
"Okay," Hong ihua agreed.
Not long after, the ambassador ca. Hong ihua relayed the request, and the ambassador agreed readily without asking much. He made a call to arrange things, then invited the two to dinner. After dinner, everything was prepared and placed in the car, parked in the embassy's parking lot outside.
Luo Zheng and Hong ihua approached the car, soone got out and handed Luo Zheng the keys. Luo Zheng checked the equipnt; it was all military-grade, and couldn't help but look at Hong ihua in astonishnt. Hong ihua glanced at the equipnt, smiled, and said, "Many Arctic Bear military supplies flow into the market, buying them isn't difficult. They can obtain them without much trouble, be careful."
"Keep in touch constantly," Luo Zheng agreed while getting into the car, starting the engine. He noticed Hua i sitting and waiting in a car parked nearby and realized he had overlooked her, so he said to Hong ihua, "Arrange for that young girl to return if possible."
"Rest assured," Hong ihua understood that Luo Zheng had shadows in his heart, seeing intelligence personnel dying out in foreign lands. She agreed, glancing at Hua i and continued to remind Luo Zheng, "Be careful."
"I'm off," Luo Zheng responded casually and drove away while opening the signal device. Connecting the earpiece to Lan Xing, he said, "Lan Xing, you heard it all, right?"
"I heard it too. Be careful, I'll personally supervise the training," Lan Xue's voice echoed in the earpiece, filled with deep concern and reproach, yet he didn't stop him. As a soldier, Lan Xue knew Luo Zheng's choice couldn't be stopped and was imperative. As a woman, Lan Xue chose to stand silently behind Luo Zheng, offering selfless support and sharing the risk.
"Got it. Submit Pier's interrogation recordings to the superiors; Hong ihua will report in person. Don't worry, don't you know yet? I'm responsible for Snow Fox's situation; I have to go. Besides, it's more convenient alone; nothing will go wrong." Luo Zheng smiled awkwardly but exuded strong confidence.
