Silence!
In the vast room, although it was filled with people, there was a deathly silence!
No one could give George Lee an answer!
The attending physician and the nurses all bowed their heads, guiltily covering their faces and weeping in pain.
The duty of a soldier is to protect the home and the country, even if it means laying down his life and bleeding, and the duty of doctors is to treat diseases and save lives.
But now they were truly powerless!
“Damn it!”
“Save him!”
“I’m telling you to save him, hurry up and perform the surgery!”
An utterly heartbroken George Lee, having lost his reason, actually drew his pistol in a moment of desperation and pressed it against the head of the attending physician, screaming, “I order you, you must bring him back!”
No one had anticipated that George Lee would become so crazed!
The doctor was stunned too!
In his eyes flickered guilt, fear, and incomprehension!
Guilty, because as an angel in white whose duty was to save lives, he was unable to save the life of a hero!
Fearful, because George Lee emanated a ferocious aura of murderous intent.
And that dark muzzle…
Incomprehension, because he had tried his best, the hero just couldn’t be saved!
Why treat him with such violent force?
“George Lee!”
“Calm down!”
Zooey, seeing that things were about to take a serious turn, hurriedly rushed forward: “What are you doing?”
“You shouldn’t point your gun at our own people!”
She understood George Lee’s feelings, but…
Understanding is one thing, but a fundamental mistake — that must not be made!
This could lead to a military court martial!
She couldn’t just watch her husband…
Let’s just use the term husband for now!
Even though they couldn’t get a marriage certificate due to their positions, they were together already!
Naturally, she couldn’t let him make a mistake!
“I can’t be calm!”
“I just want him to come back to life!”
“I…”
George Lee’s emotions became more and more intense, utterly beyond his control!
“What are you muddling through for?”
“Get out!”
Oliver Walker exploded in anger: “Don’t think you’re the only one in pain, who here isn’t upset?”
Indeed!
Who here wasn’t suffering?
Lucas had asked for leave, George Lee had already approved it, Lucas wasn’t needed for last night’s mission, he could have gone to see a movie with his wife and kid!
But…
He still chose loyalty!
He still remembered his military uniform!
“Boss… I…”
George Lee’s eyes were bloodshot, and large tears fell down as he clutched his chest, chokingly saying: “I… I feel so damned weak inside!”
“Lucas wasn’t just my comrade, he was also my old squad leader when I was a recruit!”
“He taught me how to shoot, he…”
“How… How am I supposed to explain this to his wife and nephew?”
George Lee’s voice turned hoarse; he and Lucas, although they had a superior-subordinate relationship, in fact had a bond that went far beyond just comrades.
That was the man who taught him how to shoot!
How he had once looked up to Lucas, who in his eyes was a hero who could do no wrong!
With his final question left hanging, George Lee collapsed on the floor, as if all strength had been drained from his body!
One could only imagine how he felt!
“Believe me!”
“We will have our vengeance!”
Oliver Walker gently laid Lucas’s corpse flat and painstakingly arranged his final uniform: “Our brother won’t have died in vain!”
“Give me one day, and with Lucas’s body, we will go and avenge his honor!”
“Transmit my order, command the highest commander of the Ocean City Battalion, Gao Shan, to deploy the troops to surround the villa district in Alabama, and if there is any movement, no need to consult me, just cover the area with artillery fire!”
His heart could not settle for a long time as he looked around at the First Squad’s injured and with heavy sorrow left the intensive care unit!
The urgent task now was to heal the internal injuries.
The reason for assembling the troops was out of fear that Andy Carter would flee to avoid punishment!
But he ordered not to attack, because he wanted to wait until their strength was back at its peak to avoid any more casualties!
