Seeing Jason's resolute attitude, Long Zhan stopped talking nonsense, took the handed atropine and walked towards the little boy.
Anyway, he had saved himself a shot.
Being a good person and saving innocent civilians is something that a world-class special forces soldier can do, but Long Zhan will not be a bad person.
Long Zhan has not forgotten his original intention of studying medicine, which is to save himself at critical moments.
Jason did not leave after taking out the potion. When Long Zhan gave the little boy an injection, he took the time to ask: "How many people are there in total here?"
"Twenty-three, without exception, all are infected." Long Zhan said while pushing the syringe.
"Can we save them?" Jason asked again.
"It's hard to say now."
After Long Zhan finished the injection, he raised his head and said with a frown: "Everyone needs emergency detoxification to temporarily stabilize their physical condition.
If we want to cure them completely, we need to send them to emergency treatment, preferably to a hospital."
"This is not good news."
Jason knew that this retreat was already very troublesome. It was impossible to take them back for treatment in the original plan. He was silent for a while and then asked: "Do you know what kind of chemical poison we are dealing with?"
"I don't have experimental testing equipment on hand, so I can only judge based on symptoms. There is a high probability that it is VX gas." Long Zhan shrugged, if this was the only way he could do it.
“How long does it take to detoxify?”
"VX virus is infected through skin contact. Children's skin area is smaller, so the time will be shorter. For adults, it takes about 10 minutes on average."
"Okay, it will be dawn in five hours. I hope you and Trent can complete this work before dawn."
"receive."
Long Zhan nodded and continued to work.
At the same time, it was basically confirmed that Jason was ready to abandon his original retreat plan in order to save these 23 innocent civilians.
Although Long Zhan felt that it was unreasonable to do this, it added a lot of difficulty to this mission.
But from a humanitarian standpoint, Jason must do this both emotionally and rationally, otherwise he will be guilty and self-blaming for the rest of his life.
In addition, there are no problems in the follow-up of the original plot, and I can still express myself.
Long Zhan did not forcefully come forward to oppose Jason's temporary modification plan.
Long Zhan knew that the change in the original retreat plan would be more beneficial to him, so he did not stop Jason, but that did not mean that others would not have objections.
As the second person in charge of Team B, Ray felt the need to remind Jason.
He specifically called Jason aside and asked with a serious face: "Do you know who invented VX gas? Does it make sense to do this?"
"Sorry, what are you talking about?"
Jason looked like I don't understand what you're talking about, and in fact he didn't.
"All right."
Lei, who originally wanted to turn a corner, simply decided to speak openly.
"The British discovered VX first, but their invention was just an accident. They realized how toxic it was and immediately stopped manufacturing it.
A few years later, the U.S. military began mass production. The VX poison prototype in this hospital was probably produced by the U.S. military.

Do you think we are good people?"
What Lei meant implicitly was that the U.S. military had already used this poison gas and killed many people on the battlefield, and we also belonged to the U.S. military.
Now in order to save these people, does it make sense to make the retreat more difficult?
"We're good people, Ray."
Jason's answer was very firm, and he looked directly into Ray's eyes and said: "Because we have never used this kind of thing, and we will never use it now."
What is the pride of the strongest sailor? Jason gave the most intuitive answer.
Ray was firmly convinced by Jason.
It is true that DG has not done any dirty things that are not worthy of publicity like other US military.
Ray's approval of Jason's idea of rescuing people does not mean that Ray has no worries. He directly asked: "We originally planned to only have 2 to 3 vehicles. How are you going to bring them all back?"
"It's time for the special forces at the border to come out and warm up, isn't it?" Jason raised his eyebrows.
Then he pressed PTT, established communication with the operations center, and reported the situation here and the idea of rescuing people to the operations center.
Sussex forward military base.
After listening to Jason's report, Commander Eric contacted the headquarters immediately.
"Sir, the situation has changed. The operation team needs to rescue a group of civilians. We have only contacted two local vehicles. There is simply not enough space for 23 people.
We hope to apply for assistance from the border special forces. They have special operations vehicles that are sufficient to ensure that we complete this retreat.
…”
Eric tried his best to communicate with the above, but unfortunately the response he received was not ideal.
The Ministry of National Defense does not want to leave any trace of the presence of US troops in the territory of Qilia, and is not very willing to send special forces to cross the border to rescue.
Eric knew that there was still room for movement inside, and did not give up on fighting for the opportunity.
Instead, I contacted the DG command center, hoping that the squadron commander or even the DG boss, the lieutenant colonel, could find a way to convince his superiors.
The higher the level of dialogue with the Ministry of Defense, the greater the chance of success.
Senior intelligence officer Mandy was not idle either. He also used his abilities to communicate with the CIA and lobby the Department of Defense and the Joint Special Operations Command.
Whether the application will be successful in the end can only be said to be unknown at this time.
Everyone is working hard to persevere, and everyone is waiting for the final reply from the Ministry of National Defense, which is destined to be a long night.
