Time passed by in the blink of an eye, and it had been almost two days since they had fish soup and shrimp.
Now, the sun had just moved to the mountaintop and was about to disappear. The entire horizon seemed to be burning, a fiery red mixed with shimmering golden yellow. The clouds facing the sun were as if edged with gold, beautiful to behold.
However, Lin Yuan and his team, who had been working hard in the abandoned stockade for an afternoon, only glanced at it twice, offered a few exclamations, and then continued their journey back.
Their footsteps were somewhat hurried, not only because it was about to get dark, but also because Lin Yuan had received a message from Sun Haiping: the military radio had been tuned.
He needed to go back now to discuss the situation of the information and the safe zone to see if he could apply for early rescue.

He pondered for a moment before saying, "Just call me comrade. If the intelligence I provide is useful, may I make a request to the organization for my sixty survivors."
Lin Yuan mentioned a larger number of survivors, as he had not forgotten Zeng Yilong and the others. He had made a promise, and it wasn't a battle of wits with enemies, so he naturally intended to keep it.
