Chapter 912 - P5092 Takes Over Command! (1/2)

Back when they were still fighting the Zong Consortium, Zhang Xiaoman had seen the steam locomotive. At that time, they were even being pursued by the Zong Consortium's armored brigade.

Therefore, when the iconic whistle of the steam locomotive suddenly bellowed in the desolate wilderness, Zhang Xiaoman's first thought was that the future commander was here!

As there were no railroad tracks in the vicinity of Mt. Youyu, there was no other explanation for this sound other than Ren Xiaosu's steam locomotive.

As the black steam locomotive appeared over the mountains with black smoke billowing from its smokestack, Wang Yun and the others could clearly see Ren Xiaosu's figure through the windows.

Wang Yun said to Zhang Xiaoman in a startled manner, ”Did someone perform blessings on your tongue?”

Zhang Xiaoman wondered, ”Why does it sound like you're scolding me?”

But no one had time to care about this right now as they were all concerned about something else. Why had Ren Xiaosu suddenly appeared here? Wasn't that too much of a coincidence?

After the steam locomotive came to a stop at the entrance of the base, it dissipated. Zhang Xiaoman walked up excitedly. ”Future Commander, I finally get to see you again. After we parted ways that day—”

”Hold it right there.” Ren Xiaosu could not stand it anymore. ”What's with you? You didn't act like this the last time we saw each other.”

”You weren't our future commander then, were you?” Zhang Xiaoman chuckled.

”Is that what you should be saying?!”

”Why have you suddenly come here?” Zhang Xiaoman asked.

”I read in Hope Media's newspapers that y'all were coming to Mt. Youyu. So after doing the Pyro Company a small favor, I came looking for y'all,” Ren Xiaosu explained.

Yang Xiaojin, who was beside them, rolled her eyes at him. You call killing several thousand barbarians a small favor? Then what would be considered a big favor? Wiping out the expeditionary army?

Ren Xiaosu pulled P5092 to the front. ”Let me introduce you. This is the Pyro Company's P5 commander. He's also joined the Northwest now, the Prosperous Northwest!”

P5092 had a look of conflict on his face, but he did not reject it in the end.

But Wang Yun was shocked by the sight of this. He used to be a member of the Kong Consortium and was very experienced when it came to dealing with the Pyro Company.

As a matter of fact, it was simply too difficult to pry any information out of a Pyro Company spy.

Therefore, the Kong Consortium would just routinely interrogate the Pyro Company spies they had captured since they already knew they would not talk.

But Ren Xiaosu was different. This guy actually poached a P5 division commander of the Pyro Company?

Wang Yun looked at P5092 as he had seen him in a photo before. But he still found this unbelievable, so he confirmed with him, ”Pardon me, what's your serial number?”

P5092 answered, ”P5092.”

Wang Yun gasped. He could remember the information of every high-ranking P5 commander, and P5092 had always been the most difficult to deal with among the Pyro Company members. If a commander of the Kong Consortium's frontline troops heard their opponent was P5092's 3rd Division, they would act extremely cautiously.

Many of the Kong Consortium's officers were even said to admit defeat in advance once they heard they were going up against P5092's troops.

Someone within the Kong Consortium had suggested assassinating P5092 on multiple occasions. That was because he was the most likely candidate to take over the position of commander-in-chief of the military corps in recent years.

And such an important figure like him… had also joined the Prosperous Northwest?!
