"Then let them remain unconscious for twenty days to avoid any delays on the way."
Lin Yao coldly instructed Xiao Cao, his brows furrowing, "Just knock out the ordinary people and throw them into the sea to feed the fish. They treat our soldiers the same way, so let them disappear too. We also destroyed the important equipment on the island. Learn from them!"
"Alright, are you ready?" Xiaocao replied happily. Although the domestic epidemic was worrying, she was still very happy to be able to slaughter hundreds of enemies and capture thousands of people.
Lin Yao stared into Captain Xi's eyes and solemnly instructed, "Captain Xi, there are more than 3,600 prisoners in total. You will arrange for people to bind and detain them in a while. Although they will all be unconscious, we cannot let our guard down. Pei Yuan and Sun Miao will stay here to assist you in detaining these prisoners and taking them back to China. I will take my leave first."
"Remember, what you saw is top secret. You must not tell any unrelated people. You can only report it directly to Commander Xiao Deli. You must not leak it to anyone else. Otherwise, even if the military court doesn't come after you, I will come after you personally!"
Before Captain Xi could even understand what was being said, numerous black dots rose from the Diaoyu Islands in the distance, densely packed like locusts in flight, creating a terrifying sight.
Thousands of black dots quickly gathered and flew toward the destroyer, prompting the soldiers in the observation tower to sound the emergency alarm.
Before the officers and soldiers on the destroyer could react, they saw black dots right in front of them. Those black dots were not locusts at all, but soldiers dressed in Japanese military uniforms, who landed densely on the empty deck, piled up like cargo in layers, making Captain Xi and Pei Yuansun Miao's eyes almost pop out of their sockets.
Another group of ordinary Japanese soldiers were thrown into the sea on the other side of Diaoyu Island. Xiao Cao even made sure that these people were two kilometers away from the island, in case anyone woke up and tried to survive.
Even more viciously, Xiaocao severed the hamstrings of these hundreds of ordinary soldiers, ensuring their certain death!

To clarify, the update issue is due to personal matters, and I am unable to write normally. It is definitely not because of writing the new book, although I have been planning the new book and wanted to find time to design and start writing it.
Furthermore, although only three or four hundred friends have not given up their support, I will never deliberately write haphazardly or leave the story unfinished. Poor writing is only a matter of ability, never an issue of attitude! Attitude has always been my most valued criterion, and that will never change.
Thank you everyone!!!

Lieutenant Colonel Du Chenfeng's face was somewhat pale. The knuckles of his left hand, gripping the collective pitch control lever tightly, were also white, and sweat streamed down his forehead. His expression was extremely tense and serious.
The tense Lieutenant Colonel Du Chenfeng did not forget to constantly observe the data displayed on the dial, and his peripheral vision never missed the cyclic pitch control lever directly in front of him, ready to take control at any time.
Du Chenfeng is 41 years old this year. He holds the rank of lieutenant colonel and is a special-class pilot. His rank is not low in the North Sea Fleet. He has more than 5,700 hours of flight time. He has been engaged in flight work since he applied for pilot training 24 years ago. Operating helicopters has become his instinct. He can even complete flight missions well with his eyes closed and only relying on the co-pilot's reminders. Of course, this only applies to pure flight missions and does not include combat missions.
This top-tier pilot, who could perfectly pilot a helicopter with his eyes closed, was now sweating profusely from nervousness. The sweat kept coming back as soon as it dried, and his specially made uniform was sticky and uncomfortable against his skin. But Lieutenant Colonel Du Chenfeng had no time to worry about that. All his energy was focused on dealing with a madman.
This madman was Lin Yao, a major general in civilian clothes, who was also sitting in the cockpit under the alias Lin Yifan.
"Screw it! Maybe it's time to retire..."
Du Chenfeng was somewhat dejected, lost in thought. He immediately reminded himself not to be distracted, as any small mistake at this moment could lead to a plane crash. Although General Lin beside him said not to be nervous and that such a situation would not occur, Du Chenfeng did not believe it. He only ever trusted his own hands to operate the plane, even though he now vaguely believed that Laozi might really exist.
Flying over the sea is normal, but this "normal" conclusion was reached by Du Chenfeng when the helicopter approached land. He was quite frightened when flying over the sea because there were occasional violations of aerodynamics.
Regardless of whether there are storms at sea or typhoons of different levels, the helicopter flies very smoothly. Often, when a high-level turning gust suddenly blows, before he has time to adjust the cyclic pitch control stick, the helicopter will adjust its nose and tail tilt and direction as if by divine intervention. There may even be a sudden, inexplicable thrust that makes the helicopter's forward speed increase dramatically, as if a huge sail is installed on the fuselage, using the wind force from any direction other than directly in front to propel itself forward quickly.
Initially frightened, Lieutenant Colonel Du Chenfeng was not successfully comforted by the young general beside him. While sweating profusely, he pondered the reasons behind the incident. He was certain that he had not taken Viagra recently and that there were no factors such as drug-induced hallucinations. However, he was unaware of the truth of the matter and could only obey orders and grit his teeth to continue driving.
Heaven knows how a helicopter with a range of only 1,200 kilometers in land tests managed to successfully reach land on the sea, where the flight environment is unpredictable. It flew from the flagship to a location hundreds of nautical miles away to pick up General Lin, and then flew to the mainland of the motherland, which is more than a thousand kilometers away. The entire flight distance far exceeded the theoretical maximum range of the helicopter.
What Du Chenfeng found most unbelievable was that the fuel gauge remained normal. Except for the process of consuming half the fuel after picking up the person, everything became abnormal after that. The fuel gauge never dropped, as if there was an inexhaustible supply of fuel.
Compared to what happened later, flying over the sea was perfectly normal!
Since approaching land, the entire helicopter had turned into a monster. Even General Lin next to him demanded that he turn off the tail rotor. Lieutenant Colonel Du, who had initially looked down on an amateur for instructing an expert, obediently listened to the amateur general's advice after experiencing the fantastical events and turned off the tail rotor, because only in this way could air resistance be reduced.
The tail rotor that was supposed to propel the helicopter forward became a drag, completely overturning Lieutenant Colonel Du's understanding. From then on, he became extremely focused and tense in controlling the helicopter's aerial attitude to avoid accidentally crashing and killing himself.
A strange, enormous pulling force appeared on the helicopter, causing its speed, which relied solely on the rotor to maintain altitude, to soar to 538 kilometers per hour, far exceeding its theoretical maximum speed. This made Lieutenant Colonel Du, the pilot, feel his heart nearly leap out of his chest.
"Lieutenant Colonel, lower the flight altitude to just over 300 meters above the ground. Don't fly that high. I'm in a hurry."
Lin Yao's order left Lieutenant Colonel Du speechless. In a hurry, they had to lower the flight altitude. Not to mention that such an altitude would disturb the people on the ground, he, who had been piloting the helicopter with his nerves on edge, had no confidence in dealing with emergencies at such an altitude. Based on his experience, he judged that the possibility of crashing was 90%.
Thoughts are one thing, but orders still need to be carried out.
Lieutenant Colonel Du lowered the helicopter from 1,000 meters to 300 meters. After feeling the altitude stabilize, the helicopter suddenly accelerated. His nerves immediately became more tense, sweat poured down his forehead, and his heart pounded to near its limit.
Lin Yao's expression did not ease as the helicopter accelerated to 738 kilometers per hour; on the contrary, it became even more serious.
"Yaoyao, don't be nervous. Didn't they say that not many people have died? Besides, this virus has a very poor ability to survive outside the body, even more fragile than HIV. The epidemic area has already implemented martial law, so the possibility of widespread transmission is not very high."
While quickly using the distant hills and trees on the embankment as footholds to pull the helicopter forward, Xiaocao gently comforted Lin Yao. The conversations she had had with Xiao Deli and the head of the domestic CDC along the way had been terrible, and she had to ease Lin Yao's emotions, otherwise it would not be good for his mental state.
Lin Yao didn't respond to Xiao Cao's words, still frowning, "Xiao Cao, if I find a way to lift the helicopter, can you control the direction to prevent it from falling?"
Xiao Cao knew, of course, that Lin Yao felt the current speed wasn't fast enough. She sighed inwardly, thinking that Lin Yao cared too much about the safety of his compatriots, which went against the peaceful state of mind required for cultivation. It was really going too far.
"Yaoyao. I can."
Without saying a word, Lin Yao immediately straightened his back and focused all his energy on gathering the energy of heaven and earth to help the helicopter accelerate.
