Chapter 394: Chapter 323: Tianxiong Mutiny! (5K+ Request for Monthly Ticket)_2
Wei Zhong’s expression turned cold as he turned his back, and with a stomp of his foot, a rumbling, massive yellow stone wall burst from the ground.
The Cold Light Blade Energy howled as it struck the yellow stone wall, creating a booming sound and sending stones flying in all directions.
Just when it seemed the wall would be pierced through, there was a loud bang; amidst the flying stones, a large stick smashed the blade light to pieces and then shot back fiercely.
"Bang"
The thick black handle of the stick brutally penetrated the young Deputy General’s True Qi barrier, pounding into his stomach.
A miserable scream followed as the man was sent flying like a cannonball.
The entire tent was affected by the battle and collapsed.
Amidst the swirling snowflakes, Wei Zhong walked out with Mi Ayi, while behind them, figures charged over, accompanied by angry curses.
"Colonel!"
"These men are truly beasts."
"What kind of soldiers are these?"
Among the approaching figures, several Armored Colonels, infuriated, were escorting the rescued women from the Western Regions.
The faces of these dozen or so Western Regions women bore fresh red whip marks, their clothes were disheveled, their expressions terrified, and they had brought back two lifeless cold bodies.
Following behind Wei Zhong, Mi Ayi saw her sisters’ bodies, ran over in panic, hugged the still-warm corpses of her sisters, and collapsed in the snow, shaking her hands incessantly and letting out heart-wrenching sobs.
"Ayi!"
"Ayi!"
"..."
The other women also began to cry out in sorrow.
"How did they die?"
Wei Zhong’s brows twitched as he looked at the two women’s bodies with a grim face and an indescribably gloomy voice.
Such an infuriating incident occurring in his Sky Patrol Department’s territory sent him seething with rage. Then, with eyes as cold as ice, he stared down several figures breaking through the air towards him, forcibly stopping them in their tracks.
"They said these women couldn’t bear the humiliation and took poison themselves,"
reported the Colonel, sighing.
"Take the people and leave first!"
Wei Zhong huffed.
But someone wouldn’t let them leave.
From the collapsed tent emerged a figure, who bellowed, "Men, seize them all."
"Wei Zhong, you barged into my Vanguard Camp without permission. Even if you are a local Colonel, I will not let this slide!"
With those words, a sharp whistle pierced the snowy night sky.
Following this whistle, fires lit up one after another inside the barracks around the drill ground, followed by chaotic voices.
"Assemble! Assemble!"
Then, figures began to scurry out of the tents in a hurry. Amidst the shouting, they hurriedly surrounded the area where Wei Zhong and the others were.
Each of them had an unpleasant expression, but they all looked like a bunch of misfits.
These soldiers, one by one, donned mismatched armor, some clutching their helmets, others drunkenly staggering, and some blowing whistles, spinning around like headless flies.
They were nothing but an undisciplined rabble!
Wei Zhong, seeing the audacity of Deputy General Hu tearing off the facade and daring to have his soldiers surround him, especially upon viewing the sorry state of these troops, color rose to his face in anger — damn it all.
"Call the troops!"
"Yes!"
Immediately, a swath of firelight whizzed through the snow, exploding mid-air.
As the firelight shot into the sky, sharp whistles resounded one after another in the night sky, followed by the thundering sound of horse hooves charging in unison.
Soon, from the darkened drill field outside, the neighing of horses came closer and closer. Amidst the expanse of white snow, horses flowed like a torrent, the cold light reflecting off their iron gear. With cries, they sent snowflakes flying and poured towards both sides of the drill ground. Galloping freely, they encircled the drill field.
The entire process was orderly, extremely efficient, and carried an imposing air of solemnity.
The Tianxiong Pass Mansion Army moved out, forming a stark contrast with these Vanguard Army soldiers.
At this, the Vanguard Camp soldiers inside the barracks were terrified, with startled cries erupting. The now-nervous Vanguard soldiers surrounding Wei Zhong showed signs of unrest.
"I’d like to see who dares to stop me!"
Seeing this, Wei Zhong’s eyebrows shot up, and with a nonchalant wave of his sleeve, his presence formidable, he strode towards the outside.
The Vanguard soldiers in front of him, with their fierce gaze, now seemed to dodge, and amidst the commotion, they couldn’t help but step back.
At this moment, the disheveled Vice General Hu, with his chest-plate caved in, choked on blood in his throat. Seeing his soldiers behaving like this, he was furious, his face flushed red, his eyes crazed.
"A bunch of useless fools!"
"Stop him!"
"Stop him!"
But nobody among the Armored Soldiers dared to lay hands on the fiercely assertive Colonel Wei, who was in charge of Tianxiong Pass, and they continued to step back.
Just then, a sharp whistling sound rushed through the air, flickering rapidly above the drill field.
A few streaks of light rushed over, revealing figures.
Leading them was a commanding, overwhelmingly oppressive figure with a pair of daunting eyes that pierced down from above.
"General Gongyang!"
"Salutations to General Gongyang!"
Within the Vanguard Camp, soldiers saw his figure and knelt down one after another, creating quite a spectacle.
The surrounding Tianxiong Pass Soldiers, however, spurred their horses into action, their gaze fixed on the formidable figure tensely.
Gongyang Jianshan, upon seeing this scene and his disordered and unseemly soldiers blocked by the Tianxiong Pass Mansion Army, wore a dark expression; his eyes couldn’t help but target Wei Zhong amid the crowd.
"Colonel Wei, what are you doing? Deploying troops to surround the Heavenly Army, offending a superior, are you attempting to rebel?"
Before Gongyang Jianshan could speak up, someone preempted him, shouting to stop.
It was the Border Colonel from Lanshan Pass, who started with serious accusations.
Wei Zhong couldn’t be bothered with this fellow and instead faced Gongyang Jianshan’s gaze, his expression unchanging, showing no sign of backing down.
"Colonel Wei, I need an explanation!" Gongyang Jianshan spoke each word weightily, his voice heavy.
