Chapter 926: Chapter 926 Her Name (4)

"Urgent call from Northwest." The assistant answered outside the door, "General, something has happened."

General Patton’s eyes, which were initially squinted, immediately opened. He threw off the blanket and got up, striding to the door. Pulling it open, the assistant glanced at the woman wrapped in a blanket outside the door and handed him the phone receiver.

"You should take the call in the study!"

The matter is of great importance, and naturally, nothing can be leaked.

"This is Patton!"

General Patton took the receiver to his ear, the assistant hurriedly reached out to help him tighten his pajamas and fasten the belt.

"General, we’ve just received a report from Base Three, there’s been an invasion inside the base."

The voice on the other end was urgently coming from his subordinates stationed in the Northwest, with a palpable hint of panic in the tone.

Upon hearing the news, General Patton frowned deeply.

Base Three is one of the key training bases of the Northwest Legion, though it doesn’t have particularly important military secrets. However, earlier Sam had returned to Northwest, already having arranged with him to take the child to Base Three to lie low for a while.

Now, just a few hours later, there’s news of an invasion at Base Three. This could very likely have something to do with that child, making General Patton inevitably anxious.

Striding into the study, he immediately inquired urgently, "Have we identified who it is?"

"It’s still unclear at the moment."

"What about the losses over there?"

"Both the training building and dormitory have been blown up, now it’s almost just a wasteland."

General Patton gripped the phone tightly, "Patch the call through immediately."

"Yes!" The assistant responded, fiddling with the phone to transfer the call to Base Three’s line. After some static noise, the base line was finally connected.

"This is General Patton, get Sam on the phone."

"General, Colonel Sam has already died."

General Patton’s mouth hung open, silent for a while. Sam’s mother had an ordinary identity, although she bore him a child, Sam, considering his future, eventually married a girl from a good family.

Sam was his first child and among all his children, the smartest and most adored.

He never publicly announced this to the outside world, but allowed him to use his surname, and when Sam was in his teens, brought him into his military camp.

A few hours ago, they were on the same flight, laughing and talking. Now, his son suddenly turned into a corpse, even General Patton felt a stabbing pain in his heart.

"Who did it?!"

"The identity of the opposing party is still uncertain. But we’ve managed to get a rough idea; there are about twenty of them. Judging by their skills, they seem to be trained professionals, likely of military origin."

Huangfu Jue invaded the base with his subordinates, anyone who saw them is dead, and those soldiers who barely survived didn’t even get a glimpse, naturally unable to identify the adversaries from just a few corpses.

"The child?" Patton asked full of doubts.

"The child has already been taken away by them. Our people are tracking them, but there’s no news yet."

"Then why are you standing there stunned? Go, search... at all costs, find that child." General Patton shouted.

"General." The voice on the other end was helpless, "I’m afraid... we lack the manpower."

Patton furrowed his brows; with nearly three hundred soldiers including new recruits at the base, they claim to have insufficient manpower?

"How many do we have left?"

...

Another year begins, wishing everyone to be a better version of themselves in the new year.

On the first day of 2017, Good morning, little princesses.
