I Told You To Manage The Reserve Unit For Me Instead Of Turning It Into A Special Troop-Chapter 973 - 574: Qin Yuan Takes Action! (Two Chapters in One)_2
Chapter 973: Chapter 574: Qin Yuan Takes Action! (Two Chapters in One)_2
Qin Yuan’s heart was anxious, but there seemed to be no reason to interrupt the two of them, because in a martial arts competition, what is most taboo is to be interrupted without just cause, as it shows disrespect.
The two exchanged blows, with fists and feet colliding, and after several more minutes of fighting, the match remained undecided.
Suddenly, Qin Yuan looked around and noticed something very strange: Weiwei, the old man, and He Chenguang, all three were nowhere to be seen!
For some reason, a strong sense of unease slowly welled up in Qin Yuan’s heart. The simultaneous disappearance of these three people most certainly indicated a premeditated act!
Qin Yuan no longer had the patience to observe Green Snake’s actions. He asked a soldier nearby, “Where is Captain He Chenguang?”
“Captain He Chenguang? We don’t know either!”
“We didn’t see them just now! We don’t know where they went!”
Qin Yuan continued to question several other soldiers nearby, but the answer was the same: no one knew where they had gone.
In the center of the field, Green Snake and the man tangled like two butterflies, showing no signs of stopping.
Qin Yuan watched anxiously, but due to the special circumstances, he could no longer concern himself with the ethics of the duel. He could only shout out loud:
“Green Snake! What are you doing!”
However, as Qin Yuan had expected, the people engaged in the fierce battle did not hear his shouting; Green Snake’s movements were the same as before, completely ignoring others.
Qin Yuan tried shouting several more times.
But it was as if Green Snake was possessed, his shouts returned without effect.
Just then, as Qin Yuan was about to take his next step, the two people in the field split apart!
In their mutual collision, the impact was so powerful that neither could withstand it, and they were both sent flying several meters, landing on opposite sides of the field!
Both lay on the ground, gasping for breath.
But at least the fighting had stopped.
Qin Yuan hurriedly called out Green Snake’s name and rushed to the center of the field, coming to Green Snake’s side and helping him up.
When Green Snake saw it was Qin Yuan, he was stunned.
Qin Yuan immediately asked:
“What happened?”
“Damn it! This bastard, he said they took away Weiwei and the old man!”
“What?”
Qin Yuan looked puzzled.
“Who is he?”
“Don’t know! But he’s with the Qiu brothers!”
Green Snake said angrily.
“With the Qiu brothers?”
Qin Yuan’s eyes widened.
He remembered that the Qiu brothers were part of a mercenary group, but he had forgotten what exactly they did.
“Why did they take away Weiwei and the old man?”
Qin Yuan continued to press for answers.
“Don’t know! They just said the old man is very important to them! They demanded we hand them over, or they would wipe out our 2nd platoon of the logistics company!”
“They have an army of several hundred! That’s why He Chenguang took some brothers to rescue Weiwei!”
“This guy was left behind to cover our retreat! I managed to catch him!”
Green Snake cursed angrily.
“What??”
Qin Yuan was shocked.
This was obviously in line with what he had anticipated!
These people indeed had a plan!
Apart from Daybreak Organization, there were others who coveted the old man himself!
While he and Daybreak Organization were locked in a tough battle, the others took advantage of the chaos, reaping the benefits like a fisherman!
Qin Yuan’s mood plummeted.
“You handle things here, and I’ll go find He Chenguang and Weiwei. They are outnumbered and definitely in danger!”
Green Snake pushed Qin Yuan, urging him.

“Hmm, I’ll leave this to you, you must capture this person alive.”
Qin Yuan said gravely as he looked at the person in front of him.
“Don’t worry! Hurry over, just head west, it’ll be too late if you’re slow!”
Green Snake said anxiously.
Qin Yuan immediately got to his feet and dashed westward, vanishing into the night.
It was unclear how much time had passed as Qin Yuan continuously raced along the path.
This area was on the edge of a stream where the temperature was low and the air moist, a stark contrast from the earlier weather.
Although Green Snake hadn’t specified the exact direction, Qin Yuan followed the messy footprints on the ground and soon found their trail.
Just as Green Snake had said, He Chenguang and his men were indeed in a standoff with the opposing mercenary group.
Qin Yuan could now see the two armies facing each other up ahead.
He Chenguang was leading a few dozen brothers, all armed, while the enemy, although a mismatched mercenary group, outnumbered them greatly with their mass of dark figures, wearing the same black and yellow plain clothes as the man who had fought with Green Snake earlier.
Qin Yuan observed closely and was greatly alarmed.
Weiwei and the old man were no longer with He Chenguang’s team; evidently, they had fallen into enemy hands, and He Chenguang was there to negotiate their release!
Silent as a ghost, Qin Yuan slipped into the nearby bushes to hide.
Even though he was eager to speak with He Chenguang and gather information, he knew that operating from the shadows was far more useful than engaging on the battlefield directly.
Then He Chenguang began to speak.
“Bring out the people immediately, and we’ll call it quits, each returning to our own paths. Our interests don’t conflict; it’s just a matter of method. We could become great comrades in arms.”
He Chenguang said firmly to a leader on the opposite side.
The tall soldier in the enemy ranks, also dressed in black and yellow but wearing a beret, replied with a steady voice:
“Hmph, I know that you all are elite warriors, but now, you’re just like toothless tigers, with no fighting power to speak of. To talk terms with us is sheer folly!”
“We’ve helped you before, how can you be so ungrateful!”
He Chenguang retorted resolutely.
“Hmph, all’s fair in war. Only those who understand the times are true heroes. Your present plight is due to your lack of strength, no one else is to blame!”
The man on the other side scoffed.
Seeing this, He Chenguang didn’t say anything more. Since the other party was being so unreasonable, there was no point in continuing the conversation—it would only waste more time.
“Brothers, no matter what, we must rescue our people today. Since they are being so overbearing, we need to show them what we’re made of.”
As he spoke, He Chenguang gripped his rifle tightly.
The 2nd platoon of the logistics company’s soldiers were all fired up and immediately responded in unison with a loud “Yes!”
Then, the battle erupted. He Chenguang, leading by example, charged toward the enemy’s position, unleashing a barrage of gunfire.
Although they were only a few dozen strong, their weapons and equipment were plentiful after previous battles, ready for such small-scale combat.
“Hmph, we’ve been waiting for you impetuous hungry wolves.”
It seemed the enemy was well-prepared, quickly taking cover behind nearby obstacles and pulling out grenades prepared in advance to hurl at He Chenguang’s side.
“They were prepared!”
The soldiers from the 2nd platoon cried out in alarm.
Though their reflexes and combat skills enabled them to dodge the explosive onslaught, it cost them the initial advantage, throwing the scene into chaos. He Chenguang’s forces were struggling to maintain control.
Meanwhile, Qin Yuan, watching everything from the sidelines, knew they couldn’t let the enemy retreat, or it would lead to dire, irreversible consequences.
His eyes focused sharply as he pulled out the sniper rifle he had readied, aiming in the direction of the enemy’s retreat.
…..
“Bang!”
A sharp sniper shot pierced through the night.
“Captain!”
Panic-filled shouts immediately echoed from the enemy camp.
The 2nd platoon recognized the sound of gunfire and immediately knew whose handiwork it was—the distinctive sound of Qin Yuan’s special sniper rifle.
A delighted smile quickly spread across He Chenguang’s face.
“Qin Yuan might be late, but he never misses an engagement.”
