Chapter 153 This is almost an absolutely impossible task...
"woke up?"
Qin Long was a little surprised. According to the foreigner's physical condition, he shouldn't have woken up so soon, so he asked again:
"Are you sure you're completely awake? Not like that kind of hysterical intermittent lucidity?"
Shuisheng nodded and replied with certainty:
"Captain, that foreigner is indeed awake. He's even holding Tiezhu's hand and chattering in a foreign language. He seems quite anxious."
"But we don't understand, so Dashan asked me to come to you, Captain."
Qin Long nodded. It seemed that the foreigner was not an ordinary person.
"Minister Fang, Secretary Chen, Lao Li, I encountered a foreigner who fainted when I was entering the mountains."
Then, Qin Long explained to the bewildered Fang Zhengming, Chen Wu, and Lao Li:
"That foreigner is awake now, why don't we go check it out first?"
"Okay, let's go check it out first."
Fang Zhengming and Chen Wu naturally followed the host's wishes. When Old Li heard that the person was a foreigner, he frowned slightly before nodding and speaking.
Naturally, Qin Long noticed his action.
Combined with the main reasons why the Japanese launched the Battle of Southern Jiangxi, the identity of the foreigner is obvious.
Soon, Qin Long, Fang Zhengming, Chen Wu and Lao Li arrived in front of a Dongfanghong LT665.
From a distance, they heard a voice that was chattering non-stop.
During this period, there were very few people in our army who knew English. Even underground intelligence workers like Lao Li only had a superficial understanding of English.
So, when faced with a situation like this, where the foreigner spoke too fast and mixed in some colloquialisms, Lao Li was completely confused...
But Qin Long understands!
Before I traveled through time, I was able to get into the National University of Defense Technology. At least my English level was still up to par.
So the foreigner's chattering words fell into Qin Long's ears and turned into:
"Where is this? Which unit are you from? Guo Jun? Eighth Route Army? Please tell me quickly."
Knowing about the National Army and the Eighth Route Army, this foreigner was definitely not an ordinary person, so Qin Long jumped directly onto the Dongfanghong LT665 truck bed and came to the foreigner:
"Okay! My secondary insider information?"
The foreigner didn't expect that someone could actually speak English, and the light of hope suddenly ignited in his eyes:
"Hello! My name is Tom! Which unit are you from? Guojun? Eighth Route Army?"
"Please tell me where this is quickly! I have something important to report to your superior!"
"Mr. Tom, don't worry. We are from the Eighth Route Army guerrillas."
Qin Long was afraid that he would faint again due to excessive excitement, so he signaled Tom to calm down first:
"This is the Taihang Mountains of Dragon Country. If you have any important matters, please tell me first. If I can't solve your problem, I will report it on your behalf."
Qin Long, who had vaguely guessed Tom's identity, was still very nice to him.
"Well, I was one of the bomber pilots who flew the 30-second operation over Tokyo."
As expected, Tom's identity was exactly as Qin Long had expected:
"However, due to insufficient fuel, our bombers were unable to fly to Quzhou Airport as expected."
"So, we chose to make an emergency landing near your Dragon Country's eastern coastal area or directly choose to parachute out."
"A dozen of my companions and I were captured by the Japanese army, but they helped me escape."
Tom's face showed a very sad expression when he said this:
"Later, I was rescued by a farmer friend from Dragon Country. He not only tried his best to help me contact your superiors, but also made me lots of delicious food."
"But... I don't know why, but the Japanese army knew of my existence. That friend risked his life to help me escape, but that village... that village was razed to the ground by the Japanese army..."
Qin Long could feel Tom's heartfelt grief, so in order to prevent him from getting too emotional, he took the initiative to change the subject:
"So, Mr. Tom, how did you end up in the Taihang Mountains?"
"Ah, after I left that village, I was found by the Guojun troops. They said they would escort me all the way to the mountain city."
Tom calmed himself down and continued:
"But for some reason, we were found by the Japanese army when we got here. They told me to escape to the mountains and wait for them."
"But after I fled to the mountains, I never waited for them to come looking for me..."
"I've been in the mountains for a full half month, unable to find a way out and feeling thirsty and hungry. Today, I heard the sound of a truck nearby, so I struggled to find you. Since then, I've lost all track of myself..."
Qin Long basically understood the whole story.
As far as he knew, most of the American pilots who participated in the 30-second operation over Tokyo had been rescued by the end of last month.
I can only say that Tom is really unlucky...
"So, Mr. Tom, you haven't told me you have any urgent matters to discuss with our superiors."
At this time, Lao Li asked, and of course Qin Long translated it for Tom.
"Oh! Shit! I didn't even mention this first!"
Tom was quite regretful and said anxiously:
"I beg you, I beg you to save my companions! They have all been taken away by the Japanese army!"
"This one……"
Old Li said with an embarrassed look:
"As you know, the Japanese occupied many cities in Long Country and built a lot of prisoner-of-war camps."
"We don't know where your companions were taken by the Japanese. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's really hard to find them..."
Having said that, Lao Li continued with a firm look on his face:
"But Mr. Tom, I can promise you responsibly!"
"After escorting you to the mountain city, we will do our best to find your companions!"
"If we really get any information about them, we will definitely rescue them no matter how difficult it is!"
Even so, Fang Zhengming and Chen Wu secretly shook their heads. The chances were too low...
They had also heard a little about the 30-second bombing plan that the Americans carried out over Tokyo last month.
It is said that the Japanese were badly bombed in their homeland because they were unable to respond in time.
So it was totally predictable!
The Japanese must hate these American bomber pilots to the core!
Under such circumstances, it is too difficult to rescue the American pilots captured by the Japanese devils...
It can be said that this is almost an absolutely impossible task...
What Lao Li said just now was just to give Tom psychological comfort.
Fang Zhengming and Chen Wu believed that Tom himself should be very clear about this.
"No! No! I know! I know where they might have been taken!"
But what Lao Li, Fang Zhengming, and Chen Wu didn't expect was that Tom said with a firm face...
