443 Raiding Stronghold 144! (1/2)
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!
