Commander Zhang took over the conversation and said, "It's precisely because the grand competition is approaching that he had to undertake a secret mission! The mission is set to last two months."
Shen Xiangtian was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly realized something. The Flying Eagle was part of the Central Defense Zone, and a secret mission like this wouldn't allow Commander Zhang to know such details. Then...
Shen Xiangtian looked gratefully at Long Jianfei and stood up to give him a military salute: "Thank you!"
"Why are you thanking me, Captain Shen? Our Flying Eagle's missions have nothing to do with you!" Long Jianfei said with a slight smile.
Shen Xiangtian also smiled, understanding that some things were clear in his heart and there was no need to spell them out.
"Alright, since you're here, I won't need Old Shen to bring this to you."
