Chapter 479 Send 5 tanks?
479
Outside the tent, the moonlight was as bright as water, but it couldn't dispel the solemn expressions on everyone's faces. Ruan Wenxiong clenched his hands, his voice trembling slightly, "Goddess, are you really leaving? We...we really can't bear to see you go!"
The other county governors also echoed this, their eyes full of reluctance and anxiety.
Tang Yue looked at the county governors who were working so hard for the people of Bianyue, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She said softly, "I don't belong here in the first place. Now that I've found two guardians, it's time to leave. This attack on US Base No. 5 is too dangerous, and I don't want you to take any risks."
However, County Magistrate Chen took a step forward, straightened his back, and looked determined: "Goddess! When you come, teach us how to resist the American army and let our people live in peace.
Don't worry, we are all people with consciences. We have seen everything the Goddess has done for us. Since the Goddess said she wants to attack Base 5, then we will follow her.
If it weren't for the goddess, it would be a mystery whether we are still alive. No matter how dangerous it is, we are not afraid."
The other county heads also became excited and expressed their agreement: "Yes! We are not afraid of danger! Our young and strong people are also full of energy and want to contribute to our homeland!"
Tang Yue looked at the fiery faith in their eyes, feeling a mixture of emotions. She had come here with a purpose in mind, and this time when she went to US Base No. 5, she hadn't considered these people.
Because Base 5 was truly dangerous. It was the most heavily guarded location by the US military, and every step could bring a threat of death. But the county governors' sincere words made it impossible for her to ignore their determination.
"This is no joke!" Tang Yue raised her voice, her eyes filled with worry. "The defenses of US Base No. 5 are impenetrable. Our equipment and manpower are vastly inferior to them. We're bound to suffer countless casualties if we go... Is this the end of the matter? Are you still going?"
Before he finished speaking, Ruan Wenxiong suddenly knelt down, and the county governors behind him followed suit. "Goddess!"
Nguyen Van Hung's voice was firm. "Our people have suffered too much under the oppression of the US military! Even if we know that we are in danger of death, we must fight!
We have always known that the war in Bianyue was caused by our own incompetence. Now that you are going to take risks, we cannot just stand by and watch. We must fight alongside you!"
Tang Yue felt comforted in her heart. Although she helped these people with a purpose, after all, the fact that they could stand in front of her safely now was definitely inseparable from her contribution.
Of course, she wouldn't blame them if they didn't want to follow her to attack US Base No. 5. After all, they belonged to two different countries.
But these people were grateful, so her feelings were naturally different. Tang Yue didn't agree immediately. She swept her eyes over all the county governors.
"This is no small matter. Tomorrow, discuss it with the people in your county. It depends on personal preference. This battle is different from previous ones, and the risk of sacrifice is very high. Therefore, anyone who is willing to go should sign up tomorrow. Don't force anyone."
After hearing what the goddess said, the heads of several counties all felt tears welling up in their eyes. The goddess was still thinking about them. Why would such a good goddess leave?
Tang Yue waved her hand, and all the county heads left reluctantly. Tang Yue then entered her own tent. Her tent was large, and Tang Bei, Tang Nan, Tang Dong, Han Rusong, and Captain Yang were all there.
Captain Yang didn't know Han Rushong's identity yet. After they sat together and exchanged information, they got to know each other a lot.
After Tang Yue entered, everyone's attention shifted to her. Without delay, Tang Yue looked at Yang Shengjun. "Captain Yang, you've been with us long enough now. I'm separating from Bian Yue."
Yang Shengjun stood up before he finished listening. "Why are we splitting up?" He asked, and then he realized he had asked a stupid question. He sat down and said, "Well, it's better to split up. I heard that the Bianyue government has long been dissatisfied with the Goddess's team, and several requests for amnesty have been fruitless.
The Bianyue government now sees the Goddess's troops as a threat, and they may attack at any time."
Tang Yue smiled faintly. Currently, the US military had over thirty intact vehicles and fifteen tanks. If the Vietnamese government wanted to resolve the situation by force, who knew how long it would take.
So, let's leave them five tanks. Yang Shengjun had an amusing expression on his face. He seemed to be in agony, wanting to refuse, but then feeling like it was none of his business. Tang Yue had brought back those American tanks, so she should have the final say.
But, that was a tank. Yang Shengjun felt really bad that he could just give it away so easily to those people from Bianyue who didn't know how to drive one.
"Can't you give me a few fewer?"
Tang Yue raised her eyebrows. "Then, 6?"
Yang Shengjun was speechless for a moment. The Tang Bei brothers looked at their sister with affection. Their sister was truly so kind and thoughtful.
There wasn't much time to admire Captain Yang's expression. Tang Yue continued, "Captain Yang, you and my three brothers will be responsible for sending Commander Han back to the headquarters."
Yang Shengjun looked at Han Rushong, then at Tang Yue. "Didn't you just say you were going to attack US Base 5? The mission is so heavy, who will help you if we all leave?"
Tang Yue smiled. She thought, "It's easier to operate without you all around." She didn't want to use normal means to attack. A quick victory was the best option.
Han Rusong immediately grew worried upon hearing Tang Yue's words, but he didn't show it on his face. China was short on troops, so even if they were here, they wouldn't be able to do much.
He might even affect their performance. Yang Shengjun gritted his teeth and said, "Lu Ye and the others will be left to you. I'll take the others to escort the commander back."
Everyone prepared to set off immediately without resting. Before leaving, Tang Yue gave Tang Bei several invisibility charms, "Brother, if you encounter danger on the road, put these on. Don't forget the leader."
Tang Bei took it and placed it directly into his storage ring. He looked worried, "Sister, be careful."
Tang Yue smiled, "Don't worry, big brother. If this battle goes well, we will be together again soon. By then, maybe it won't be long before we can go home."
Tang Bei always believed what his sister said. As they walked away, Tang Yue began to rest. She needed to replenish her energy. She was determined to get the things from Base No. 5.
The pitch-black night didn't affect their vision. Chang Yin, Tang Shengkai, and the others raced down the muddy mountain road, sweat dripping down their cheeks. They frantically pursued the fleeing American troops, finally finding the scattered group after over an hour.
Captain Blake, the American captain leading Chang Yin and his team, stood in the middle of the group, his face smeared with mud and his military cap tilted on his head. When he saw Chang Yin and his team hurrying over, his eyes narrowed into slits, his eyes full of vigilance and suspicion.
He strode forward, the gun in his hand shaking intentionally or unintentionally, and demanded sternly, "What's wrong with you guys? Why did you arrive only now? Where are the others?"
Chang Yin's expression remained unchanged, not caring about Blake's suspicion at all. He took a step forward and replied respectfully, "Captain, we encountered some minor troubles on the way here.
We accidentally fell into a trap and it took us some time to escape, which delayed our trip. Chang Yin and his companions were indeed in a bad state. But Blake and his companions weren't much better off either.
Blake snorted coldly, his eyes scanning back and forth among the few people: "Trap? I think you are deliberately delaying time! There are people of the Goddess everywhere along the way, who knows if you are colluding with them!" As he said, he raised his gun and pointed it at Chang Yin.
Tang Shengkai's heart was boiling with anger, and his hand unconsciously reached for the gun at his waist, but he suppressed the impulse in his heart and forced a smile: "Captain, what you said is wrong. We all work for the US military. How could we collude with the Goddess's people?
If you don't believe me, you can send someone to check our equipment to see if there's anything suspicious."
