Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 376

"I'm doing just fine." Old General Liang sighed. "Can't say the same for Colonel Lin and Xingzhi, especially Colonel Lin."

He was not lying when he said that he was doing fine. The hijackers had no intention of hurting the hostages. After the hijack, the hostages were treated well, with good food and comfortable quarters. Only when the battle started did the quality of the food given drop. However, they were never tortured.

Things were not the same for Colonel Lin though. Captured by the enemy, Old General Liang saw how the hijackers broke Colonel Lin's leg by hitting it with a steel baton repeatedly.

Too many lives were lost in the rescue mission.

Colonel Lin was captured by the enemy exactly because he acted as bait and distracted the enemy, creating an opportunity for Lu Xingzhi to rescue the hostages undercover. He was shot once when covering the last hostage's escape and received another bullet to his chest when he went back to get Colonel Lin. Even with his injuries, he managed to carry Colonel Lin out.

The hostages were rescued, but it could not be considered a victory. Too many young soldiers' lives were sacrificed to achieve the goal of the rescue mission.

Old General Liang was extremely furious after he was rescued. He would not have attended the conference if he knew the research results were obtained in such away.
