Chapter 1433 - 1253: Cruel Choices
"Rest assured! I assure you as a soldier with all my honor," Qin Jian said with a serious and solemn expression.
The young man clearly did not fully trust him, yet he had no choice but to believe.
Now, time was life. Seeing the man’s stubbornness yet unable to leave him behind, Qin Jian proposed while speaking, "Give us more details about the location. Our squad can split into two groups, with one group going ahead for the rescue. The rest will accompany you."
The man thought the plan was feasible and hurriedly said, "Okay, good, I’ll tell you the exact location."
It took the man a great effort to clearly explain the situation above.
Qin Jian immediately arranged for some men to go ahead for the rescue, staying behind to accompany the man at a slow pace uphill. Climbing a mountain with an injured person was no easy task. Qin Jian had to take care of himself as well as the man.
Every so often, the two of them had to stop to catch their breath.
Halfway through, the man was extremely tired, his ankle hurt so much that he could hardly walk, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down his forehead with every step.
Qin Jian had no choice but to carry the man on his back, step by step.
