Chapter 446, Acting Alone
Zhang Jinglin tried to persuade Ren Xiaosu not to take the risk, but Ren Xiaosu seemed to have made up his mind and did not let Zhang Jinglin continue, directly hanging up the phone.
It was said that the combat commander today was Zong Ying, even if Zong’s rear was hit, it wouldn’t affect this war, but that wasn’t the case, the reason why the Presidency was the Presidency, that was precisely because they had absolute influence and control over the army, it was just that nowadays, temporarily, they were letting Zong Ying be the commander-in-chief.
Now, the various combat units are temporarily under the command of Zong Ying, and after the war is over, Zong Ying himself is only the commander of a combat unit, and also needs to be under the command of the Presidium.
So Ren Xiaosu asked Zhang Jinglin if there was any use in knocking down Barrier 146. Zhang Jinglin answered yes.
That was the place that kept the Zongs together, just like when the Yang Clan’s 88 barriers were broken, the entire Yang Clan immediately turned into a scattered mass of sand, and there were endless hookups and fights.
The Zong Clan would be no exception.
If Zong Ying was able to lead the entire frontline forces for another ten years, perhaps his personal influence would be enough to save the day in the midst of the chaos and screw everyone together, but the current Zong Ying was not qualified.
If the 178th Fortress was defeated, then Ren Xiaosu’s idea of destroying the entire Zong Clan would no longer have a place to draw upon.
Perhaps the Qing Clan would also have ideas for the Zong Clan in the future, but after beating the Zong Clan, the Qing Clan would inevitably enter a long repair cycle, and they would need a lot of manpower and material resources to rebuild the barriers after the war.
Not only that, Qing Clan would also have to spend a lot of time to collect Yang Clan and Li Clan’s barriers, holding those resources firmly in their hands and digesting them.
Ren Xiaosu hung up the phone, Zhang Xiaoman and the others were rubbing their fists, ”What should we do, let’s go and bring down the 146 barriers? Haha, we’ve already knocked down 144, what’s wrong with this 146 barrier?”
The rest of the Pointed Sword Company looked at Ren Xiaosu, before, someone had also mentioned the suggestion of hitting the 146 barriers, but it was denied by Ren Xiaosu.
And this time, Ren Xiaosu surprisingly did not refute Zhang Xiaoman at all, instead urging the soldiers of the Pointed Blade Company to hurry up and get on the steam train.
The steam train traveled at full speed all the way, and everyone in the wilderness couldn’t tell the direction of the steam train, and only felt that everyone this was going to fight the 146 barriers.
Everyone on the train was discussing enthusiastically, “What do you think we should do to fight the 146th Barrier, we have to move very fast, or else when the 131st Brigade hears the news and rushes over, then we’ll be facing two brigades.”
Ren Xiaosu grabbed that 1237th Regiment’s deputy regimental commander in the car and said, “How is the combat strength of that combat brigade of 146th Barrier?”
“That must be one of the most elite troops inside the Zong, their equipment is all the latest and best, this troop has always represented the image of the Zong, even the Zong’s children who go there to gild the lily must be the best of the best in order to go in, of course, they don’t have much experience in combat,” the deputy regimental commander said weakly: “You guys won’t really go to fight the 146 barriers right …… Not me saying demoralizing words ah, this point of your people to go to death to fight the 146 barriers, there is really no difference from sending them to their deaths ah.”
The deputy head’s heart said, you damn want to die don t drag me on ah!
As a result, that deputy head looked at the direction the steam train was traveling and said, “Huh, this road is not right ah ……”
Ren Xiaosu looked at him, “Be quiet and don’t say anything, when we get to the place later I’ll let you go with them or you’ll go with me to 146 Barrier.”
Wait, there was a lot of information in those words!
This deputy chief was shocked, the road that this teenager in front of him was clearly not going to 146 Barrier, from the information he got from the other party’s words, I’m afraid it’s not that this teenager wants to go to 146 Barrier alone?
The steam train suddenly stopped in the wilderness, Ren Xiaosu roared, “Get off the train get off the train!”
A sound of pulling gun bolts rang out from the car, and the Sharp Knives Company thought that they had arrived at the place to prepare for battle.
As a result, after they all got off the train, Zhang Xiaoman was caught off guard and didn’t see Ren Xiaosu get off the train, while the train once again sped up and traveled away into the distant wilderness!
“Wait, Ren Xiaosu, where are you going? What is this place?!” Zhang Xiaoman ran after the train for a few steps, but the train was too fast for him to catch up, and Ren Xiaosu had absolutely no intention of turning back.
Jiao Xiao Chen pointed his gun at the deputy leader, “What is this place?!”
“This is the easternmost part of the Zong, ten kilometers further on and we’re out of the Zong’s territory,” the deputy head of the troupe said with difficulty, “You put the gun down first, I don’t know anything about this, I just noticed on the way that the direction was wrong, but that teenager warned me not to talk nonsense.”
Zhang Xiaoman was in pain, “It’s over, it’s over it’s all over, Ren Xiaosu is afraid that it’s too dangerous to go to the 146 Barrier, so he purposely put us in such a safe place, intending to go to the 146 Barrier alone!”
There was no other possibility, no wonder Ren Xiaosu had acted extraordinarily silent all the way, it turned out that Ren Xiaosu had thought of everything long ago, and had even placed them without any panic before moving on.
Zhang Xiaoman used the satellite phone to pass this information to Zhang Jinglin and the others, at this time, one by one, the generals were also silent, Zhou Yinglong suddenly asked Zhang Jinglin: “Anyway, I am convinced.”
This convincing and unconvincing, talking about Zhang Jinglin’s move of placing Ren Xiaosu in the sharp knife company in the first place, Zhou Yinglong was the first general to express his support for Ren Xiaosu, even though he had the lowest position among the generals.
The rest of the generals remained silent, after all, there was still a lot needed for the position of commander, and they wanted to wait and see if Ren Xiaosu could come back alive from the 146th Barrier.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was on his way to attack the 146th Barrier, no, rather than an attack, it was more like a sneak attack.
Ren Xiaosu thought about it and still felt that it would be more prudent for him to go to the 146th Barrier alone, he couldn’t bring the Sharp Dagger Company knowing that he would die if he brought them with him.
So he simply put Zhang Xiaoman and the others in a far away place, making it impossible for them to come over to help, knowing that if Zhang Xiaoman and the others wanted to walk to the 146th Barrier, it would take at least more than ten days.
Of course Ren Xiaosu was still very thorough in his considerations this time, if he was the only one, he could have many ways to comfortably enter the 146th Barrier to observe the situation, whether it was to go over the barrier or follow the Zong’s transportation caravan into it, anyway, a smaller target would have more possibilities.
If he brought the Sharpshooter Company with him, then he would really have to fight his way in.
Ren Xiaosu stowed the steam train when he was about to reach the 146th Barrier, and he walked alone in the wilderness to avoid being spotted by the enemy in advance of the target.
He hid outside the 146 Barrier for a full day and night, wanting to see if there was any good way to blend into the barrier.
As a result, Ren Xiaosu found that this 146 barriers inventory vehicles extremely strict, far away in the sniper rifle scope can be seen, those soldiers responsible for the inspection actually every box of supplies to open, the bottom of the car also never let go.
Now, he can only climb the back of Dingyuan Mountain cliffs like when he climbed, tumbling into the barriers, but the good thing is that there is a gap in the patrol time of the city’s head guards, that one minute gap, enough for him to play.
