Then Lu Yuan looked at the others.

Soon, the people in the other groups also expressed their agreement.

Of course, this agreement was made under duress. Almost everyone was unhappy with Lu Yuan's actions, but what could they do when Lu Yuan arrived with a gun?

Chu Jialin was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected that Lu Yuan's gun wouldn't be confiscated when they passed through the checkpoint.

Next, Lu Yuan issued several questions, the first of which was the issue of obeying orders.

This matter should not be underestimated. In order to ensure that everyone is under unified command, Lu Yuan broke up all the members of his team and made them the captains of other groups.

Except for the group leaders of Group 1 and Group 7, all the other group leaders have been replaced.

They handed over all their walkie-talkies to the new team leader.

Another aspect is the punishment for deserters and those who violate the rules and pose a danger.

Lu Yuan made such a rule.

Anyone caught smoking in the group will have their equipment confiscated and handed over to the group's management. If they refuse to comply, they will be handed over to the temporary security personnel for further handling.

Of course, the person in charge of this safety management is Lu Yuan, which means they have no opportunity to appeal.

The group leaders felt their authority was threatened, and one by one they started spreading rumors within their teams about how Lu Yuan was leading them to their deaths. Later, when Lu Yuan found out, he directly transferred all those spreading these rumors to the expert group.

The expert team was displeased upon hearing this, and they led a group to Lu Yuan's team to protest.

"Tian Zhiguang, what do you mean by this? Why are you throwing just anyone at us? We're not dumping grounds! We're part of the expert team! Please respect us!"

Lu Yuan chuckled: "Ahem! You're being a bit hurtful with what you're saying! They're not trash! If you talk like that, you'll offend them!"

As expected, the team leaders and their cronies standing by also voiced their protests, partly against Lu Yuan and partly against the insult to the expert team.

However, the expert team, these simpletons, completely ignored their protests, stating that their team was already full and that their main job was to ensure the safety of everyone in the team.

The end result was that these team leaders were forced to become another small team, specifically to report on various matters. Of course, in the eyes of Lu Yuan and some of his own people, this behavior was considered stirring up trouble.

Lu Yuan completely ignored this. He now had all the tankers and manpower under his control and wasn't worried about what incomprehensible things those idiots behind him might do.

Furthermore, he specifically assigned people to handle some of their affairs. For example, if they requested to stop and rest, Lu Yuan would simply lead his men onward. Whether they could keep up was their own problem.

However, these people weren't fools; they knew what would happen if they separated from the main group.

The argument continued throughout the journey, but Lu Yuan completely ignored it.

After breaking through the third termite wall, everyone was exhausted and panting after dealing with all the soldier ants.

Almost everyone was covered in sweat. Apart from the expert team and the team leader, they waited idly for Lu Yuan and his team to complete all the tasks before slowly following the team into the fourth ant nest.

By this time, three days had passed, which was quite slow, but still much faster than before.

If Lu Yuan hadn't urged them forward, they probably wouldn't have survived by the time they reached the second termite nest.

While he was resting, Lu Yuan suddenly received a phone call from outside.

This is a phone call to the team leader.

The group leader immediately ran to Lu Yuan's car and handed him the phone.

"It's a call from the commander-in-chief! Look..."

Lu Yuan nodded and said, "You can answer the phone! They're probably calling to ask about the situation!"

So the group leader pressed the answer button.

A frantic roar came through the phone: "Sun Ming, what's going on? Why can't I reach Wang Zhen despite making so many calls? And what about yesterday's explosion? Weren't we supposed to go together? Why was it detonated prematurely? Also, there's a serious rockfall in the second section! What are you doing? Why didn't you report to me in time? Get Wang Zhen on the phone right now!"

The team leader looked speechless, staring at the phone in his hand before whispering to Lu Yuan, "Old Tian, ​​what do you think..."

Lu Yuan answered the phone casually and said, "Commander-in-Chief, I have some bad news for you. Wang Zhen was smoking in the convoy and ignited a tanker truck! He's already in the city center!"

"Huh? What do you mean? Wasn't he in the cave? How did he end up in the city?"

Lu Yuan sneered, "Can't you even understand what I mean? It seems you really aren't suited to be the commander-in-chief! If you ask me, you should just resign! The collapse caused by the explosion resulted in over a hundred deaths! Our fuel supply is now in crisis! If you want accountability, go find Wang Zhen!"

"You mean Wang Zhen is dead?"

"Nonsense! Otherwise, how would he have gotten to the city center?! I think you've lost your mind!"

"You bastard! Who the hell are you?"
