Chapter 300 Cleaning Up the Mess
The two found some black wizard's artifacts and an altar for casting spells in the cave, and together they destroyed all these harmful things.
Returning to the spot, they found that their third senior brother was exhausted and his weak body could no longer hold on, so he collapsed.
Jin Sheng quickly carried his senior brother on his back, wanting to walk out of the dense forest with Jiang Ruzhen.
Jiang Ruzhen knew that Jin Sheng had almost exhausted all his energy, so she pulled him directly into the spatial spiritual spring pool to recuperate.
Although the water in this spiritual spring pool has little effect on cultivators, it's better than nothing.
The four of them collapsed into the spirit spring pool to recover their strength, looked at each other, and revealed the joy of victory in their eyes.
Although they paid a heavy price in this battle, they also successfully destroyed the enemy's magic array and plot.
Without a high-level black magician like Old Tran, South Vietnam's biological weapons program would probably have stalled for over a century.
South Vietnam has truly suffered a double loss this time, and it's likely that it will never dare to harbor any covetous thoughts towards China again for the next hundred years.
This gave China a chance to breathe, as Jiang Ruzhen clearly knew.
In less than a century, in just forty or fifty years, our country’s military and economic strength will rank first in the world.
At that time, all the surrounding countries will have to act according to the wishes of their motherland.
By then, their country will stand at the pinnacle of the world, and naturally no one will dare to make any more troublesome plans.
They rescued all the soldiers, although Lu Mingzheng and the Eagle Commando members were controlled by black magic for a period of time.
Fortunately, they were all elites in the military, and with their iron will, they firmly held onto their last line of defense.
They did not become killing machines or puppets.
Now that all those dark wizards are dead, they just need to rest and recuperate for a while and they will recover.
However, if you soak in the spiritual spring water for a period of time, the recovery effect will definitely be better.
The battle was won, but the commotion they made while fighting was too loud.
Having likely alerted the nearby South Vietnamese garrison, Jiang Ruzhen told her fellow disciples to rest while she tirelessly used her spatial abilities to rush back to her homeland.
Once they reached the entrance of the command post, Jiang Ruzhen finally let her guard down and lay down at the door, panting heavily.
The sentry on guard spotted Jiang Ruzhen suddenly appear and hurriedly went inside to report.
Zheng Xin was shocked and led Xiao Lin and the old leaders out quickly. He squatted down in front of Jiang Ruzhen and asked her anxiously.
"Comrade Jiang, what happened to you? Why do you look so disheveled? Have you found the person?"
"The person has been found, don't worry. Chief Zheng, I just came back to let you know that I'm too tired and need to rest. I'll report back to you on the details after I've rested."
Without caring whether she would frighten the people in front of her, she flashed and disappeared again.
Fortunately, Zheng Xin and the others had already witnessed Jiang Ruzhen's abilities when she left, otherwise, her ability to conjure people out of thin air would have really frightened them into a panic.
Although Zheng Xin couldn't see Jiang Ruzhen, it didn't stop him from knowing the importance of the Ninth Special Operations Bureau.
An order was immediately issued to bring in a platoon of soldiers to surround and protect the area where Jiang Ruzhen had just lain at the entrance of their command post.
The concern is that some unsuspecting people might walk by and step on Jiang Ruzhen, who could reappear out of nowhere.
And so, everyone waited anxiously for a day and a night, but instead of Jiang Ruzhen, they were greeted by a young Taoist priest with an air of otherworldly wisdom.
This person, just by standing there casually, gives off an air of profound mystery.
Zheng Xin stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm from the Ninth Special Operations Bureau, and I'm the third in rank." Qi Yuefeng, being of high cultivation, was the first to recover after exhausting his strength.
He knew that many high-ranking officers on the border were still waiting for news from them, otherwise the garrison would not be able to withdraw.
He then told his junior brothers and sisters to continue recuperating in the space, while he came out alone to explain the situation to Zheng Xin.
He was not an exaggerator, and there was no need to explain the details of some of the magical battles to these mortals.
He simply described the rescue process by picking out the parts he could talk about.
But from his few words, Zheng Xin and the others could guess how dangerous the process was.
"That's settled, Chief Zheng. You can contact your superiors and report on the progress. If there's nothing else, the army can withdraw. I also need to return to the capital to report."
"Alright, take care." Zheng Xin knew the formidable nature of the person before him and respectfully tried to see him out.
Although the people in the Ninth Special Operations Bureau do not have military ranks, they are directly dispatched by the top leader and their status is far above that of the others.
But just as they reached the door, a soldier came to report.
"Reporting to the commander, a large number of our soldiers who were training suddenly collapsed. Everyone is dizzy and has diarrhea, as if they ate something bad."
"Huh? Is that really true?" Zheng Xin asked anxiously.
He strode out, but Qi Yuefeng sensed that something was amiss, so he followed Zheng Xin to the medical tent.
In just a few minutes, a company of soldiers had fallen in the army.
As the seconds passed, more and more soldiers fell.
The military doctors couldn't find the specific cause, but they vaguely suspected it was food poisoning.
Qi Yuefeng stepped forward to observe the soldiers' complexions and then pressed their stomachs; he immediately had a guess.
He casually checked the pulse of a soldier in serious condition, and his suspicions were confirmed.
"They are indeed poisoned. What kind of water have you been using for drinking recently? Take me there to see them."
As soon as Qi Yuefeng spoke, Zheng Xin immediately beckoned a young soldier to lead them over to investigate.
Qi Yuefeng arrived at the riverbank and immediately noticed that there was something wrong with the river water.
Just as they were heading to South Vietnam to rescue the commandos, South Vietnam had already diverted the sinister river water into our territory.
However, since the formation on the southern side of Yue had been destroyed, the water had lost most of its effectiveness.
It only caused our soldiers to vomit and have diarrhea, but did not cause too many casualties.
Now all we need to do is manage the water sources within the territory.
He took out a medicine bottle from his pocket, which contained five antidote pills, and gave it to Zheng Xin.
"Place these antidote pills in the nearby water sources, one pill for each location is enough. After a day and a night of purification, the water will be drinkable again."
As for those who have already been infected, simply boil several pots of water with one antidote pill and force-feed them all.
Zheng Xin hurriedly took it, as if he had found a treasure.
Quickly arrange for Xiaolin to carry out the rescue mission.
After two busy hours, the condition of the poisoned soldiers in the camp finally improved.
Zheng Xin was relieved and reported the situation to his superiors, emphasizing the contributions of the Ninth Special Operations Bureau.
Upon learning of this, the higher-ups immediately issued an order for them to rest for the night and prepare to evacuate the following evening.
The second day at dusk.
The horizon at the border was dyed orange-red by the afterglow of the setting sun. This day was undoubtedly a historic moment for all the soldiers who participated in the border self-defense counterattack.
At 6:20 p.m. that evening, as the last military vehicle slowly drove across the border, my country officially announced the successful completion of its troop withdrawal operation.
In the final stages of the war, our army had firmly grasped several key strategic points in northern South Vietnam.
In particular, the defense and control of Hill 602 on the unnamed mountain was of paramount importance in controlling the entire northern region due to its geographical location.
This victory not only dealt a heavy military blow to the South Vietnamese authorities, but also symbolized the successful achievement of strategic objectives.
Battle records show that the army demonstrated exceptional discipline and combat effectiveness in this self-defense counterattack.
Within a few short weeks, they swiftly occupied several towns and strategic locations in northern South Vietnam, while strictly adhering to international law and the laws of war, minimizing harm to civilians and damage to infrastructure.
In this war, members of Special Operations Bureau 9 played a crucial role.
