Beneath the Upper City

No one knows when it began—

But the world was split in two.

Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...

Chapter 637 Duan Weijun

"Um... I'm sorry."

Duan Weijun walked over from behind Yan Feng and said, "Commander Ning, General Yan, can I have a word?"

During this period of time, Duan Weijun has been leading the Third Legion in training in Xincheng.

His current official position is only a sergeant major.

The number of people under my control is not as many as before.

After all, he had just come from the headquarters not long ago, so Ning Fan couldn't directly assign him a general position.

Although Duan Weijun's abilities have been recognized by many people, Ning Fan has not witnessed it with his own eyes so far.

Duan Weijun didn't feel that he was being looked down upon.

There will be a lot of fighting in places like Xincheng and Yefengkou.

There are many opportunities to prove yourself.

Ning Fan and Yan Feng looked at Duan Weijun at the same time.

Duan Weijun cleared his throat twice.

"I just heard from Commander Ning that the murderer is currently at the Regional Patrol Army's base. I'd like to ask, who is this murderer..."

Ning Fan understood his question.

"They are from the Global Patrol Army."

He gave the answer directly.

Before Duan Weijun could speak, Ning Fan added, "He's a legion commander named Meng Di."

"Mundy?"

Duan Weijun scratched his head: "I seem to have heard of this person."

The District City Guard and the Global Patrol Force are two teams that basically have no intersection.

Duan Weijun's only knowledge of Meng Di was that he had heard of such a person.

And this was not the purpose of his sudden appearance.

"So, Commander Ning means that we should storm the camp?"

Duan Weijun's expression became much more serious, completely losing the "upright" look he had pretended to be when he was in the headquarters.

"Do you think there's a problem?"

Without waiting for Ning Fan to speak, Yan Feng turned his head and asked Duan Weijun.

Duan Weijun did not hesitate at all.

"Yes! And it's a big problem!"

Yan Feng frowned.

Ning Fan said calmly, "What's the problem?"

"Wait a moment."

Duan Weijun said hello and ran back to the car he was riding in.

Soon, he took out a ball of cloth from inside.

A large ball of cloth.

After throwing the rag on the ground and flattening it, what appeared before everyone was a map of the entire F region!

Many of the places marked on it are scribbled by Duan Weijun himself.

Both Wen Xiuyuan and Xia Qing had shown Ning Fan the map of Region F before.

But none of them is more detailed than this one.

Even small passages in the mountains like the Snake Cave are marked on this map.

“This is where we are now.”

Duan Weijun knelt directly on the map and pointed at the location of Shuangdaojian marked on the map.

Duan Weijun was stunned for a moment when he started to speak, then raised his head and said, "Commander Ning, that Meng Di must be seriously injured, right?"

Ning Fan nodded.

Duan Weijun then pointed to another location: "Then he shouldn't be able to run far. He will most likely go to this station."

The place he pointed to read...

The All-Area Patrol Army, the Second Corps, the Seventh Camp, troop deployment: 18,000.

After seeing this information, Yan Feng couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then looked at Duan Weijun.

Ning Fan also raised his eyebrows and squatted on the ground: "I thought you said there was a problem, because you thought we shouldn't take action against the regional patrol army."

Duan Weijun was stunned for a moment, then chuckled: "You are the commander, and I am your subordinate. I will fight wherever you point me. As for how the higher-ups will deal with me later, that is also your responsibility."

Duan Weijun's attitude did surprise Ning Fan and the others.

In theory, Duan Weijun came from the general district city guard army.

This kind of person is likely to be more disciplined.

The regional patrol force is a team from Region F.

What Ning Fan is doing now is tantamount to provoking a civil war.

Given Duan Weijun's identity, he should be very resistant.

But what no one expected was that Duan Weijun didn't even think about it in that direction, but started discussing strategy directly.

"Okay, go on."

Ning Fan nodded.

Duan Weijun asked, "Commander Ning, I'd like to ask first, do you intend to kill Meng Di alone, or do you simply want to storm the enemy camp and demand a statement from the Regional Patrol Army?"

Ning Fan looked at Duan Weijun quietly.

This person is indeed very smart.

"Tell me the difference."

Ning Fan asked calmly.

"The difference is that the amount of troops required is different."

Duan Weijun's eyes brightened: "If we just want to kill Meng Di, as long as there are masters who can fight him, I only need to bring two thousand people."

"But if we want to storm the camp..."

Duan Weijun turned his head and looked in the direction of the Third Legion.

He thought about it for a long time and couldn't help frowning.

“It’s not easy to fight.”

Yan Feng originally thought that Duan Weijun might tell him the number of troops needed.

"Why is it difficult to fight?"

Yan Feng was a little unconvinced: "By the time Brother Qu's team arrives, we will have nearly 40,000 people! And we can't defeat their 10,000-plus?"

Duan Weijun smiled and waved his hand: "General Yan, war is not about comparing numbers. The number of soldiers is meaningful, but it cannot be directly compared to produce results."

"You mean, our army is inferior to the enemy's?"

Yan Feng asked.

"That's the reason."

Duan Weijun said bluntly, "After I arrived in Xincheng, I visited all the legions. I'm going to tell you something you may not like: although the border defense army has nearly 50,000 soldiers, only less than 10,000 of them are actually capable of fighting."

Ning Fan was not dissatisfied with Duan Weijun's evaluation.

Not even surprising.

The border defense force may look quite large, but its personnel composition and quality are indeed very poor.

The basic personnel of the border defense force were actually the 30,000 defense troops brought by He Cheng at that time.

Those 30,000 people...

At that time, most people just got by.

It's too difficult to expect them to fight bravely on the battlefield.

On the day of the [Peace Day] operation, all Ning Fan needed them to do was to fill in the numbers.

After all, Ernst's team's morale had dropped to freezing point at that time, and they had no intention of resisting at all.

And there are also twenty-eight powerful weapons that can be used by spirit servants to assist.

As for the north side of the city, although Grasag's troops put up a strong resistance, the ones who were actually fighting them...

He is a veteran of the Luo family army.

What Duan Weijun just said about "those who can really fight" actually refers to the veterans of the Luo family.

It’s just that this shortcoming has not been fully reflected at present.

Although Yan Feng felt a little uncomfortable, he did not refute.

Although he was not good at leading troops, he could still distinguish the strong from the weak.

"In fact, there is another more important reason."

Duan Weijun ignored the reactions of the others and pointed to the location of the seventh camp and said, "The pass here is too narrow. Our military strength advantage cannot be fully utilized here!"
