The Beautiful Stepmother from the Eighties: Marrying a Factory Director to Raise Kids Chapter 291

"I never agreed with you letting him go in the first place. He's not from our military region, after all, too young and impulsive!" another senior officer nearby said sternly.

"Even though he holds the rank of regintal commander, this Fu Yang is no ordinary person. He has a powerful background and is from the South China Military Region. If sothing were to happen to him in our region, who would take responsibility when the higher-ups hold us accountable?"

Chief Yang pressed his fingers against his temples, his expression grave.

Wang Jianguo's face was dark. "Chief, don't tell it's that kid from the Fu family? He went into the uninhabited zone?"

Chief Yang sighed and nodded. "Yes. Besides training, Regintal Commander Fu had another very important mission this ti."

"You all must have heard about the illegal mining and poaching in the uninhabited zone recently."

"Yes, but what does that have to do with soone from the South China Military Region? Isn't that matter still under investigation?" Wang Jianguo asked grimly.

"It has nothing to do with him personally, but it does with his superiors. Intelligence suggests that a large shipnt of minerals and wild animal pelts intercepted during transport to the Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan region originated from here."

"The higher-ups not only suspect their involvent but also suspect our region of condoning these illegal activities, understand? So why do you think he was sent here?"

Wang Jianguo's face remained dark.

Beside him, Zhou Yueshen couldn't help but frown.

"So you called us here, Chief, because you want us to rescue him?" His voice was cold and steady, not showing surprise.

Chief Yang was full of apology. "I'm sorry, Yueshen. I was planning to let you go ho to your family as soon as the training ended."

Before Zhou Yueshen could respond, Yang Yujie beside him spoke up agitatedly, "Chief, what do you an? You're not actually sending Zhou Yueshen and Wang Jianguo on a rescue mission, are you? Have you forgotten how my brother died tragically back then!"

Her eyes were red.

The entire office fell into a deathly silence.

The events of that year struck everyone's hearts like a thunderclap.

Illegal mining and the hunting of wild animals had been going on for many years.

The uninhabited zone was not just uninhabited; it was lawless.

A legendary animal paradise, a forbidden death zone for humans.

Back when The Three Heroes were still just squad leaders, they had received such a mission.

The military region dispatched a ten-man squad, led by Yang Yingjie, to investigate.

They thought it was just simple poaching and illegal mining.

Who knew it would uncover a massive black-market comrcial chain.

All ten mbers of the squad died horribly in the uninhabited zone!

Later, Zhou Yueshen and Wang Jianguo were sent in for rescue and almost didn't make it out themselves.

They only found the remaining bones and fragnts of their comrades, eaten by wild beasts.

That scene beca a nightmare for many.

And for Yang Yujie.

Later, as the poachers and illegal miners grew more brazen, and dozens of investigation teams sent in almost never returned, the higher-ups finally began to take it seriously.

Zhou Yueshen and Wang Jianguo were the only two who ca back from inside and even managed to capture so of the miners.

Because of this, the miners and poachers gradually disappeared.

Who would have thought they would resurface now.

"Yueshen, Jianguo, this task... only the two of you can do it. You're the only ones who can go."

Wang Jianguo took a fierce drag of his cigarette, his hand unconsciously touching the scar on his face, his eyes fierce.

"Damn those bastards! When will they ever stop!"

Zhou Yueshen was much calr. He stood up. "Ten more days. I will complete the mission. This will be my final task."

With that, he turned and left.

As Fu Yang's squad had been out of contact for nearly a day, the situation was critical.

The two n imdiately prepared to depart.

It wasn't just for Fu Yang, but also for the dozens of n who went in with him.

Losing contact in the uninhabited zone was almost equivalent to a death sentence.

Every second was a struggle between life and death.

Zhou Yueshen changed into his combat uniform and boarded a military off-road vehicle.

The vehicle hadn't gone far when soone shouted, "Regintal Commander Zhou! Regintal Commander Zhou! Your letter..."
