Chapter 867: Strike Back
In the garrison family area, although the battle on the lakeshore had ended, everyone's eyes were still stunned, because the scene after the battle between the two men was too shocking.
Even though many people here have been to the battlefield, and even a few have seen some videos about fighters, the close and intuitive experience is completely different from that separated by a screen.
After a while, a gust of wind blew, and several people whose heads were wet by the falling water droplets shivered unconsciously.
They couldn't figure out what was going on, but they could vaguely sense that some actions seemed to be going on in the upper echelons of the central city, and what happened here was only one part of it. However, as there was too little information at present, they could only make random guesses about the specific situation.
In fact, many people have been trying to contact the outside world by calling since the beginning, but they have not received any response. It is obvious that the line has been specifically cut off, which has caused more people to panic.
So many people tried to drive away from here, but then they found that the roads leading to the central city and the garrison had been blocked. The roads to the peripheral cities were still relatively unobstructed, but they were farther away, and the information was even more blocked, which made them less secure.
This situation makes most people in the family quarters feel very uneasy. In addition to worrying about themselves, they are more worried about their relatives in the army.
At this moment, some people suddenly remembered something and looked towards Han Kuang, as if they wanted to ask him something. However, when they tried to move forward, they hesitated. After a while, one person finally mustered up the courage to walk up to Han Kuang and said carefully, "Old Han... Staff Officer Han... Then, Director Chen..."
When mentioning Chen Chuan, he couldn't help but lower his voice, "He's your nephew, right? What's going on here? Do you know?"
Han Kuang shook his head and said, "I don't know."
The man was clearly unconvinced, but there was nothing he could do unless he spoke. After all, the person standing there was Han Kuang's nephew. He gave an embarrassed smile and hurried away again.
Han Kuang thought for a moment and said to Nian Qian, "Xiao Qian, you go back first. I'll go to Xiao Chuan and check on him. I'll also ask about the situation."
"good."
Nian Qian was much calmer than anyone else. Unlike the families of the troops stationed here, he had led his company to fight overseas. He quickly controlled his emotions and said to Han Kuang, "Uncle, don't worry."
Han Kuang looked at him, hummed, and then waved to him, "Go back." He turned around and walked towards the lakeshore alone. Many people saw his actions and looked around curiously, and some people couldn't help but talk in a low voice.
Chen Chuan had returned to the training ground at this moment. This reinforced concrete building was very sturdy, and the aftermath of the battle had basically no impact on it. However, many branches of the surrounding trees were broken and fell to the ground, and the ground in front of the door was also wet.
He walked across the empty grounds, poured himself a hot drink, and then returned to the open doorway, where he stood and drank it slowly.
This battle was a little exhausting, but since he was acting in accordance with the request of his fellow purists, he would definitely be compensated afterwards, so he didn't have to think too much while fighting.
At this moment, he saw Han Kuang walking slowly towards him, so he greeted him, "Uncle."
Han Kuang saw that he looked natural and sighed in his heart. It was hard to imagine that the smiling young man in front of him was the same person as the fighter who had just displayed such great momentum.
The closer he got to this place, the more he realized how badly this area had been damaged. If the main battle between the two had not taken place on the small lake next to it, it would be hard to say what the surroundings would be like. But even so, this place had become a muddy field, and he had to take one deep step and one shallow step as he walked over.
He looked at Chen Chuan and asked, "Xiao Chuan, are you okay?"
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "I'm fine, uncle."
Han Kuang looked back and saw Bai Gu lying on the other side of the lake. He could vaguely see her miserable appearance and couldn't help asking, "Is that Consultant Bai...she..."
Chen Chuan said: "She's fine. Fighters have very strong vitality."
Han Kuang was stunned for a moment. Is he okay like this? Is half of his body gone?
Then he shook his head. He didn't understand the fighters' affairs, and he felt that he couldn't look at them as normal humans.
He turned back and tried to ask, "Xiao Chuan, what happened today...can you tell your uncle?"
Chen Chuan said, "Uncle, as long as you haven't been involved in those things, then nothing will happen. Just wait and there will be a result soon. It won't take too long. Tell my aunt, my aunt, my uncle-in-law, and my cousins to rest assured."
Han Kuang was shocked and thought to himself, is this really why he came here?
As a staff officer skilled in intelligence analysis, he had sensed something was amiss over the past few days. However, he hadn't expected one party to act so quickly and suddenly, and that the key player in this matter was actually his nephew standing right before him...
But think about it again, doesn’t this make perfect sense?
He once told Jie that a fighter is equivalent to an entire army, so when this "army" appears nearby, it will inevitably bring about corresponding deterrence or some chain reactions.
He took a breath and said, "Xiao Chuan, since you have nothing to do, I, your uncle, will go back first."
Chen Chuan said hello and then said, "Uncle," he looked at Han Kuang, "With me here, nothing will happen."
Han Kuang nodded seriously and walked back the way he came.
Chen Chuan stood at the door, picked up the hot drink, took a sip, and looked towards the central city of Shannan Road.
According to what he had learned over the past few days, the political structure of Shannan Province was similar to that of Jibei Province, with the Government Affairs Office and the Municipal Council dominating the central city. Both sides were also engaged in confrontation and bargaining. This time, the action was undoubtedly initiated by the government, but it was not aimed at attacking the council, but at the largest violent organization in Shannan Province - the local garrison.
From Han Cheng's few words, it can be seen that the local garrison has serious problems.
He didn't know what the internal situation was, but he could guess that Consultant Bai was probably a huge obstacle in this matter.
The main request of that comrade Chang was that he try to delay Bai Gu for a while when he met her, so that it would be easier for them to take action.
The chances of Consultant Bai coming to see him were very high, because a fighter from outside the city who was unknown to the locals staying outside the central city for a long time would definitely cause anxiety among some people, and they would most likely let the fighters on their side contact him to confirm the situation and show some deterrence to ensure that nothing went wrong.
In his opinion, this comrade Chang or the local government department was quite decisive. They launched the attack as soon as they got the chance. In such a short period of time, the various forces with vested interests in the garrison would probably have no time to react. By the time they came to their senses, the situation would have been settled.
He waited here until almost dusk. From a distance, an airship flew towards here. When it got closer, its altitude slowly decreased, and then several people jumped out from it. The leader was holding a suitcase in his hand.
This person looked like a third-level fighter. After landing, he first glanced at Bai Gu lying there, and couldn't help but sigh. Then he calmed down and walked towards Chen Chuan. When he reached the latter, he bowed and said, "Counselor Chen, I am Jiang Kui, a student of Teacher Chang."
Chen Chuan heard him call him a member, so he thought this person must be a member of the Purity Faction. He nodded in response and asked, "Have you guys finished your business?"
Jiang Kui said, "It has been taken care of. The teacher is very grateful for your help and specifically asked me to come over and hand this thing over to Officer Chen." As he said that, he picked up the suitcase in his hand and handed it over.
Chen Chuan knew that this was a compensation for asking him to do something, so he reached out and took it. However, it felt a little heavy in his hand, different from the ones he had touched before. His heart moved slightly, and he felt that the things inside might be extraordinary.
He asked, "Where is your teacher?"
Jiang Kui apologized, "Teacher originally wanted to come and see you, but he couldn't leave the fusion land for too long, so after finishing his business, he went straight back to the fusion land. When he came out, Teacher asked me to apologize because he couldn't come to thank you in person."
Chen Chuan nodded. He understood this. Shannan Road was located in the heart of Dashun and had a large population. Unlike Jibei Road, it had not eliminated the threat from the old imperial family. If he left for a while, the enemy's generals might come over and the entire army might suffer great losses.
He glanced at Advisor Bai and said, "When you came out, did the regular advisor tell you how to deal with this person?"
Jiang Kui said, "Yes, the teacher explained it when he came."
Chen Chuan nodded. With so many family members of the garrison seeing the situation here, there must be someone from the General Affairs Bureau among them. They should have reported the situation here to the rear long ago, so they should have been prepared when they came.
Jiang Kui waved his hand, and the two people behind him walked swiftly to Bai Gu's side. When the two saw the latter's appearance up close, they couldn't help but look at Chen Chuan with awe, and then whispered "I'm sorry" to the people below, and took out a long needle that was obviously attached to spiritual light, and pierced it into her eyebrows.
After doing this, the two men were visibly relieved.
Jiang Kui relaxed a little at this point, bowed to Chen Chuan, and said, "Counselor Chen, I'll be leaving first."
Chen Chuan said: "Please give my regards to the regular staff."
Jiang Kui responded solemnly: "I will definitely bring it to you."
