I Told You To Manage The Reserve Unit For Me Instead Of Turning It Into A Special Troop-Chapter 955 - 655: Showdown! (Two chapters in one)_2

Chapter 955: Chapter 655: Showdown! (Two chapters in one)_2

The soldiers below responded in unison, without exception:

“We obey the captain’s arrangements and instructions!”

“Very well! Now, I am ready to select two hundred soldiers to accompany me to the frontline battlefield!”

“The remaining one hundred soldiers will be divided between Green Snake and He Chenguang. Those who want to join me on the battlefield, step to my side!”

Qin Yuan called out loudly.

“I am willing to follow Captain Qin Yuan!”

“I am willing too!”

“Count me in!”

Soon, like a cascade of dominos, logistics company soldiers began to stand beside Qin Yuan one by one.

Until finally, everyone had joined Qin Yuan’s side, not a single soldier was left!

“This is a bit too enthusiastic, isn’t it?”

“What must Green Snake and He Chenguang be thinking?”

“This is really awkward!”

“Everyone chose to follow Qin Yuan! Green Snake and He Chenguang ended up with no soldiers to lead!”

Noisy discussions erupted on the scene.

Qin Yuan also felt this was somehow inappropriate, so he said to the soldiers following him:

“All of you, I know you are very keen to follow me into battle to kill the enemy, but we must uphold discipline!”

“Since I have assigned this mission, and you have agreed to it! Then, we cannot ignore this rule!”

“Let’s do this! We’ll follow the first-come, first-served rule! The two hundred soldiers standing in the front, act with me!”

In this way, both fairness and the soldiers’ dignity were preserved. It was a rather reasonable solution.

“Okay! We follow your command!”

Although some soldiers who arrived late had no choice, they were still very obedient to Qin Yuan’s suggestion.

The latecomers conscientiously returned to their original positions.

Afterward, Green Snake and He Chenguang each selected a group of soldiers to form their own teams.

By nine o’clock in the evening, the logistics company’s preparations were basically complete.

Each team had readied their guns and ammunition, military rations, and various support tools.

The three hundred men were ready to go at a moment’s notice.

Before leaving, Qin Yuan once again visited the old man’s room.

“What, haven’t set off yet?”

The old man asked.

“Almost, I just came to say goodbye to you.”

Qin Yuan said with a smile.

“Look at what you’re saying. It’s as if you might not return.”

The old man also laughed.

“Of course, just in case, I definitely had to come to say goodbye to you.”

Qin Yuan’s expression was very relaxed.

The old man chuckled.

“Stop joking. I am still waiting to go back with you to see my daughter. You promised to take me back.”

A gleam of determination shone in the old man’s eyes.

Qin Yuan’s face showed a somewhat helpless yet grim smile.

“Hmm, I promise you.”

After that, the two did not say much more, and a few minutes later, Qin Yuan left the room.

Time flew by, and it was already the early hours of the morning.

The time had come for them to set off.

The entire logistics company was fully prepared.

“All personnel, move out!”

Qin Yuan stood at the forefront and issued the command.

Hundreds of men, like a black whirlwind, surged out in an instant, groping their way into the darkness up ahead.

The vanguard led by Qin Yuan charged at the front. After hours of reconnaissance, they had already roughly determined the enemy’s location.

It was less than two kilometers away from their position.

Meanwhile.

Within the Daybreak Troop’s camp.

A soldier hurried into a large campsite.

“Governor Dong! The sixth, second, and fifth teams have all failed!”

Sitting in the middle was a robust middle-aged man.

It was Dong Zhejun.

At that moment, his face was ashen, as if he had been kicked by a donkey, and he was exceedingly embarrassed.

He forcefully grabbed the cup next to him and threw it hard onto the ground.

“Get out!”

Dong Zhejun yelled loudly.

The soldier hurriedly crawled and scurried out of the tent.

Dong Zhejun certainly knew what had happened to his troops!

They were a day late compared to the expected time and had not returned!

This meant that something unexpected must have occurred!

The soldier’s reply just now confirmed his guess.

A surge of rage erupted from within Dong Zhejun’s heart again!

The 2nd platoon of the logistics company!

In his life up till now, it had become his biggest thorn in the side!

They had thwarted the power of several of his legions, one after another!

This made him feel not only anxious and angry but also caused the Daybreak Organization to completely lose face!

Even though they had only lost a small portion of their forces, Di Daozhang, the captain of the sixth team, was one of his most accomplished generals!

Losing such a strong general was a significant loss for Dong Zhejun!

With this in mind, tear drops even fell from Dong Zhejun’s face.

As he wiped his tears, Dong Zhejun fell into a somber silence.

Another man wearing a black military uniform beside him began to soothe him by saying:

“Governor Dong, although we have lost four troops at once, the other side has also been affected to a certain extent. I believe their losses are not insignificant.”

The man’s voice was calm and composed, with a hint of coldness, as if he was a ruthless character.

“Captain Jin, what do you think we should do?”

Dong Zhejun slowly raised his head and asked with a sorrowful expression.

Captain Jin, the man called, cracked a slight smile, then leaned close to Dong Zhejun’s ear and whispered a few words.

The look of worry on Dong Zhejun’s face immediately shifted to one of joy.

…

Fifteen minutes later.

On the road ahead of the large formation led by Captain Qin Yuan of the logistics company’s 2nd platoon.

The team was advancing solemnly and orderly, and unlike their previous covert march, this time they were moving forward with great fanfare and a mighty presence.

Within a kilometer radius, their shouts and flag-waving could be heard.

Though their numbers were not large, they indeed exuded an impressive air.

Over at the Daybreak side, they had already been drawn to this pretentious and overbearing 2nd platoon of the logistics company.

“Sir! It’s the 2nd platoon of the logistics company! They are so brazen this time!”

“And they keep shouting that they will annihilate us completely!”

“This is utterly intolerable! These people! After attacking our four teams, they dare to come knocking at our door!”

“They really don’t know what death is! We need to show them what hell is like!”

Provoked by the soldiers of the logistics company’s 2nd platoon, the soldiers of Daybreak were already itching for a fight, swearing to confront the enemy in a decisive battle.

“Sir! What do you say?! With such obvious provocation, can we endure it?”

“Besides, our soldiers outnumber theirs by dozens of times! It would be too shameful to act like cowards now!”

The soldiers all petitioned to enter the fray and fight a decisive battle against the 2nd platoon of the logistics company.

The short-statured commanding officer at the forefront was very clear about their psychology, and he himself felt the same unending rage against the logistics company’s 2nd platoon; however, regrettably, due to his lower position, only being the captain of an advance scouting team without the power to command the troops, he could only wait for orders from above.

“I know you’re anxious, but please don’t rush,” he said.

His heart was also bursting with excitement, and he became somewhat incoherent.

The soldiers, hearing this, were also very dissatisfied.

But after all, they knew that as soldiers, they must follow the orders of the army; they could only pound their chests and stamp their feet in frustration, helpless to change their situation.

And why were orders from above delayed?

Because Dong Zhejun had taken Captain Jin’s advice.

They chose to bide their time.

Captain Jin had advised him that the logistics company’s 2nd platoon dared to come forward so impetuously for a decisive battle, they surely must have made preparations. If they fought according to the adversary’s wishes, it was certain they would gain no advantage.

Although the Daybreak Troop had many soldiers, requiring a significant amount of resources, they had a stable supply chain at the rear. The White Tower held inexhaustible resources that could be transported here in just half a day.

As long as they secured the transportation route, they could engage in a war of attrition with the logistics company’s 2nd platoon, and eventually, the first to give in would definitely be them.

It must be said, Dong Zhejun’s cunning plan was quite ingenious.
