Chapter 372: March to New Territory (1/2)
She was showing her dissatisfaction with these people. However, they responded with a chuckle, ”This is not your home, girl. You better watch out with your words!”
Tang Shaoyang looked toward the voice. The one who responded just now was a man in his early twenties. He was wearing a military uniform and stood behind another man with a big body.
He quickly found the man because of his sharp hearing. Zhang Mengyao also looked in the same direction.
If it was before, Tang Shaoyang believed the girl would ignore these people. But it was now different.
She approached the man and stopped two meters away from the man. Their gazes met, Zhang Mengyao's intense and chilling gaze, the man immediately looked away from Zhang Mengyao.
”Why do you look away? Where's your boldness?” Zhang Mengyao questioned the man, ”This is indeed not my house, but someone called Major General Shi Yan invited us to come over. Is this how you treat your guests?”
The man immediately paled when he heard the name of Major General Shi Yan.
Suddenly a hand touched her shoulder, ”I am sorry for…” the voice could not finish the words as Zhang Mengyao pulled the hand and slammed the person who touched her to the ground.
”Arghhh!” The scream resounded as Zhang Mengyao twisted the hand and had his right foot stepped on the man's back.
The soldiers immediately raised their guns, there were over thirty people with rifles, and more with handguns. Tang Shaoyang pulled Elin toward him, holding his smile.
If there was any dared to pull the trigger, he would start his initial plan. He was waiting for them to pull the trigger.
”Stop! Stop! Lower your guns! Lower your f*cking damn guns!” Suddenly a man burst out from inside the building. Hearing the voice, everyone lowered the weapon, but Zhang Mengyao was still holding the man down.
”Please release him, we are inviting you to talk, not to fight,” The man in a white shirt spoke to Zhang Mengyao.
”Oh, really?” She sneered at the man, ”You are inviting us to talk and use these armed forces to greet us at your door?”
More than fifty armed soldiers were at the entrance. They were trying to intimidate Tang Shaoyang, telling him indirectly that they had guns. And of course, this was not Major General Shi Yan's order.
Major Lan Jianhong was trying to stop the incident from worsening. He was not expecting that the opposite party would boldly use violence like this. Of course, his action was not without reason.
Yan Kui told him how they were treated in SH City. Major Lan wanted to pay back, but it backfired. If not for Major General Shi Yan's order, he would order his people to arrest the four.
The order was clear, treat the guests well. He was not allowed to do anything that might provoke the guests too.
He did not understand why they had to lower themselves to these people. However, the command was absolute. It was not his place to question his superior.
”I am sorry, but since we are expecting the guests. We are tightening the security for your safety, just in case something dangerous will attack the base,” that was nonsense, but a legitimate reason to deploy the armed force.
”If my subordinates are offending you, I apologize for their behalf,” Major Lan bowed his head slightly and quickly raised his head again.
Zhang Mengyao glanced at the man who spoke to her earlier. The man did not dare to raise his head, he just looked down on the floor.
She released the grip as she clicked her tongue, ”Tch.”
After what happened, the group did not encounter any obstacles. They were guided to the waiting room, ”I will inform Major General of your arrival, please wait for a moment.”
”They seem to not like us,” Delia muttered in a low voice.
