Chapter 443: Raiding Stronghold 144!

Chapter 443 Raiding Stronghold 144!

The Razor Sharp Company had been in the Zong Consortium’s territory for some time now. While they had gained many victories, they were essentially running around like headless chickens due to a lack of intel.

How blind was the Razor Sharp Company on the battlefield? Most of the time, they only knew they had won but did not know who they had won against, they didn’t know who else was coming to attack them.

But now that they had suddenly caught the deputy commander of the 1237th Regiment, the Razor Sharp Company was suddenly enlightened through him on what they had achieved.

Ren Xiaosu was still most concerned about why the armored brigade was constantly able to find them, and he was able to find out about this as well from this deputy commander. “So there’s actually someone who can find other supernatural beings, and he even managed to recruit quite a few of those he found? Did you say that he can only sense the presence of other supernatural beings who are within a radius of a 100 kilometers?”

“That’s right. He was even escorted to Stronghold 144 to search for a supernatural being who lived there. I only found out there was someone like that at that time.”

The deputy commander sat on the ground obediently and accepted his interrogation. Off to the side, Fu Rao asked softly, “Did we really kill three regimental commanders?”

“Yes, Li Mingli, Zong Jing, and Zong Han. Of these three people, Zong Han was originally the brigade commander at the Beiwan River…”

Fu Rao was overjoyed. Based on what this deputy commander was telling them, their Razor Sharp Company had really achieved something great! The Star Medal that was worth 50,000 yuan was surely in the bag now!

This time, the money he owed for his mother’s medical bills could finally be repaid!

Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaoman chuckled as he looked at the deputy commander and said, “If we didn’t encounter you, I wouldn’t’ve known that I was so awesome!”

Beside him, Jiao Xiaochen said, “What’s that got to do with you? Shouldn’t it all be thanks to Ren Xiaosu?”

Zhang Xiaoman glared at Jiao Xiaochen. “No wonder your jawline seems more chiseled now. So it was because you’ve been practicing talking back to others in recent days, huh?”

Jiao Xiaochen was at a loss for words. ‘What the hell are you getting at?!’

As for the deputy commander, he did not even dare to make a sound for fear of angering this damn crowd.

Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked, “We discovered that an armored brigade is pursuing us. Why? Our unit’s so small. There’s no need to deploy an armored brigade after us, right?”

“The higher-ups thought that a lot of you had infiltrated our territory in the rear,” the deputy commander explained cautiously. “But I don’t really know about the armored brigade since that was after I left.”

“Then what’s going on at Stronghold 144 right now? What’s the situation with your 1237th Regiment?”

“Before I escaped, the troops of the 1237th Regiment were in a state of disarray.” The deputy commander said softly, “There weren’t many garrison troops who stayed behind in Stronghold 144 in the first place, but a further half of them were taken out by your unit afterwards. I can’t be sure of what happened after I fled, but I guess there’s no one left in Stronghold 144 to manage the troops. As for the other officers of the 1237th Regiment, they’re mostly divided and not on good terms.”

“I know what we should do now!” Ren Xiaosu exclaimed.

During that afternoon, the Razor Sharp Company brought the despondent deputy commander with them and made their way to Stronghold 144.

At this moment, the armored brigade should still be tracking them in the northward direction. However, the tracking radius of that supernatural being was only up to a 100 kilometers. The steam locomotive had gone far beyond that distance and shaken them off long ago.

The armored brigade might sound like an intimidating force, but the marching speed for tanks and armored vehicles in the wilderness would not go beyond 60 kilometers per hour. Most tanks these days could only travel at a maximum speed of around 80 kilometers per hour on flat terrain. With that kind of speed, how could they possibly catch up to the Razor Sharp Company?

Therefore, the Razor Sharp Company had to compete in speed with the armored brigade at this moment! You want to pursue and kill us, right? Happy chasing then! Good luck!

When the steam locomotive arrived at the gate of Stronghold 144, it completely ignored the garrison troops on top of the walls that were firing their machine guns at it. Before the garrison troops could adjust the angle of their close-range guns, the steam locomotive had already smashed right through the gate.

Ren Xiaosu spat out a mouthful of blood. However, he just looked at the deputy commander as though it was nothing and said, “Where’s the granary!”

The deputy commander said numbly, “To the east.”

When he decided to flee, it was not only because he did not want to accept the role of regimental commander, but that he was also worried about being accused as a spy and getting arrested. After all, three regimental commanders had died while he was their second-in-command. At the same time, the enemy seemed to be able to predict where the regimental commander would show up. So would you dare to say that it had nothing to do with you, the second-in-command?! The link was too obvious!

Perhaps they might not touch him while the war was still going on, but someone would surely be held accountable after the dust had settled.

The deputy commander knew he was not a spy, but Ren Xiaosu looked at him as though he was suggesting: You are now!

Ren Xiaosu said kindly to the deputy commander, “You’re now an unofficial member of our Razor Sharp Company, so strive to perform well and be a useful person to our stronghold and bring glory to it!”

The deputy commander felt a sense of bitterness. He had intended to ask if he could be released after Stronghold 144’s granary was destroyed, but when he saw Ren Xiaosu’s gun pointing at him, either intentionally or unintentionally, he did not dare to speak anymore.

Who could he possibly reason with?!

Just as this deputy commander had said, Stronghold 144 was as good as a paper tiger at this moment. It was not as daunting as the Razor Sharp Company had imagined it to be, and the garrison troops in the stronghold were completely unable to organize an effective defense.

The steam locomotive continued making its way to the granary located in the east of the stronghold. The warehouse over there occupied an extremely large area, and the harvest from the fertile farming settlements near Stronghold 144 for the past five years were all stored there.

There was a checkpoint equipped with heavy firepower located right in front of the granary, while the high walls surrounding it were protected from entry by barbed wire.

However, the steam locomotive driven by Ren Xiaosu did not enter the granary through the main entrance. Instead, it crashed through a wall and charged in. “Zhang Xiaoman!”

“Sir!” Zhang Xiaoman replied.

“We’ll only set fire to the granary from aboard the train. Don’t get any ideas about fighting anyone, ya hear me?”

“Yes, sir!” Zhang Xiaoman replied excitedly.

But this left the other soldiers with a strange look on their faces. Why was Zhang Xiaoman suddenly acting like a platoon commander under Ren Xiaosu?! ‘Fucking Zhang Xiaoman! For someone who’s always giving off the vibes of an upright person, you’re actually starting to pander to the future Commander?!’

The Razor Sharp Company was leaving a trail of destruction in its wake, so it was too late for the 131st Brigade, which was still in the north, to head back to Stronghold 144. By the time they made it back here to help out, the entire Stronghold 144 might have been wiped out already.

After the Razor Sharp Company had broken into Stronghold 144, someone suggested that they fire at the residents to create chaos. However, Zhang Xiaoman firmly stopped that from happening and said that Fortress 178 would not do such things.

The stronghold’s Water Dragon Division was in charge of emergency services like firefighting, but how could they put out fires faster than the Razor Sharp Company was starting them?

Meanwhile, when the remaining garrison troops of the 1237th Regiment saw that the situation had turned hopeless, they decided to stop fighting back and simply packed their belongings to flee from the stronghold!

No matter the outcome, the 1237th Regiment would bear responsibility for what happened here. So if they did not flee now, it was not as though their lives would be good after the dust settled. Everyone knew how ruthless the Zong Consortium was when it came to handling such matters!

While the garrison troops were escaping, someone even said, “Was that the deputy commander that I saw on that train?”

The commander of Third Company said harshly, “I said long ago that he’d likely be a spy, but all of you did not believe me back then!”
