Chapter 138: Chapter 138 Yangtze River Bridge
“Division commander, do insects have any movements?” Qín Mín walked into the division headquarters and asked. The swarm had surrounded them for a day already, but there was no sign of them pushing forward. No one knew exactly what was going on.
The night was getting darker, everyone was tired and the supplies were still a big problem. If the insect started to push in during the night time, the situation would be even worse.
“Don’t worry, we have the Yangtze river, this natural barrier in our west. Those monsters won’t be able to push in that easily.” Fu Liaoyuan’s eyes were filled with blood vessels. He flicked off the cigarette ash and said, “pass the order down, prepare the explosives and get the engineering battalion ready. We need to destroy the Yangtze river bridge!”
“Commander, don’t you want to wait for the GCH’s order? This is a big decision, once the bridge is destroyed, no one will be able to cross the river!” Qin Min suddenly had a shudder. The document on his hand almost fell to the ground. This decision was too bold!
“We have already submitted the report 8 hours ago, GCH now is in a mess, they don’t have time to consider this small decision. Don’t we have the order from the top already? ‘Act based on the circumstances’ Now the other side of the river is already filled with insects, do you still want to go to the other side? Do you think someone will be able to escape from that side? I have already discussed this with Old Song. BLOW! IT! UP!” Fu Liaoyuan crumpled up the cigarette and said. He took a sip of the water and then smashed the cup on the table. Lack of sleeping made his face look wan and sallow.
A moment later, he raised his head and asked, “Oh right, did you find that swordsman? What is the progress?”
“We still don’t have any clues. but Xiao Zhu (Zhu Lingdie) said that the wind and the fire masters could also deal with golden-shelled insects. By this time, she probably got them already!” Qin Min shook his head and said. The swordsman seemed to have disappeared in Jin Ling city. He had gone through all the dark warrior’s records in Jin Ling city, but he still could not find the swordsman. Sometimes he wondered whether his commander was hallucinating at that time.
“What are those wind and fire masters? That Yātou(1) is always talking about it, she must have been fooled by those rumors, I don’t buy it. I only trust what I saw, you carry on searching for that man. No! Doubled your manpower, get the entire security battalion to search for this man!” Fu Liaoyuan said loudly.
Then Qin Min was kicked out by Fu Liaoyuan. When he just got out, he ran into the political commissar, who just came back from GCH’s meeting. The political commissar shouted to him before he even greeted him, “Old Fu, bomb the bridge! Bomb the bridge! GCH has approved it!”

Shi Qiying could not stop sweating at this moment. He was not scared of the 9th division, because the 9th division was weaker than his division. So they would not do anything to him.
But GRD and the military special force were different. No matter how much courage he had, it was not something that a single regiment commander could handle.
So when Chu Yunsheng mentioned that they could leave, they immediately retreated with his men. He did not dare to stay here a single second longer.
After the third division left, Ban Shijun said to Chu Yunsheng before the 9th division had a chance to talk, “Mr. Chu, I know that you probably won’t like the special force’s strict rules, but do you want to join the 2nd division, most of our brothers that fought with you before are in there… They all hope that they can fight together with you once again…”
“Captain Ban, thank you for inviting me. But I have already promised to join the 9th division, their garrison will be located in the Western District. It is much more convenient for me.” Chu YunSheng smiled and declined.
In fact, the Western District would be defended by 2 divisions: the 5th and the 9th. Because he knew someone from the 9th, that was why he chose the 9th instead of the 5th.
“Mr. Chu…” Ban Shijun was still trying to persuade him.
At the same time, all the family members slowly came out of the basement, they were nervously looking outside from the windows.
Chu Yunsheng raised his hand to stop him from talking and pointed at the building behind him. “Captain Ban, look at them, if I join the 2nd division, who is going to protect them. To them, this is their home. So…”
The office building has been reinforced by Lu Guolong. So not only the family members did not want to leave, but even Lu Guolong also did not want to leave as well.
Ban Shijun did not know what to say. He also could not stay here for long, he had already broken the procedure to bring out the team. So he just greeted Yao Xiang and then hurriedly left with his team members.
Professor Sun also gave Chu Yunsheng a plate that had words “GRD’s Key Protected Area” written on it from his car before he left. He kept reminding Chu Yunsheng to go to the lab as soon as he could.
After the professor left, now it only left Zhu Lingdie and the 9th division’s troops.
Zhu Lingdie didn’t have any chance to talk when she came in. Although she looked calm, she was overwhelmed with shock by the people who came to help Chu Yunsheng.
Compared to Duan Danian, she knew more than just a special rank badge. She knew exactly how important professor Sun was in GRD. This old man normally did not go out of the lab, unless it was extremely important.
Even a person like him could make an effort to come to help Chu Yunsheng, and gave him a protection plate.
And there was more. That special force. They would only follow the command that was directly issued by GCH. Not a single division had the authority to command this troop, let alone a small dark warrior’s gang. So Zhu Lingdie almost couldn’t believe what she saw.
“Brother Chu, this is Ning Mingxuan, the regiment commander of the 9th division. He represents the 9th division to invite you to join them.” Zhu Lingdie quickly adjusted her emotions.
“Commander Ning, nice to meet you. In terms of cooperation, Ding Yan will discuss it with you. He represents us. I just need one thing from you: Guaranteed safety for our families.” Chu Yunsheng’s time was limited. He still needed to spend some time to separate symbols and give some symbols to lecturer Tang to decipher. He also needed to arrange his men to gather more people like lecturer Tang.
“Mr. Chu you can rest assured that no one will dare to harm them. At 6:00 tomorrow, the 9th division and the 5th division will formally take over the entire Western District. All the dark warriors in the Western District will need to listen to our command.” Ning Mingxuan said sternly.
Originally Ning Mingxuan thought that Zhu Lingdie’s request was not wise. He even thought that it was stupid to have a conflict with the 3rd division. But he changed his mind when he saw the special force and GRD.
All the divisions wished to have a good relationship with GRD. A good relationship would bring them more weapons and equipment. Because whenever there were the latest developed weapons, it would be up to GRD to decide which division could test the weapons first.
Chu Yunsheng’s gang wasn’t exactly like what Zhu Lingdie said in the division. But this person knew professor Sun, it was more than enough for them to invite him.
Ning Mingxuan was not angry that Chu Yunsheng only asked his man to discuss the cooperation with him. As long as he could get him into his division.
While Ding Yan was discussing the conditions with the representative, Chu Yunsheng returned to the 10th floor to break up the incantations and copied the symbols from the book. He also noted down the symbols that he knew in Chinese as a “blueprint”. He hoped that the lecturer would follow the same pattern to decipher the symbols.
After an hour, Ding Yan finally finished the meeting and signed the document with Ning Mingxuan.
According to the recruitment protocol. A total of 36 people in Chu Yunsheng’s gang now formally joined the Dark Warrior Independent Regiment of the 9th division. They would need to assemble and standby at the Western District defense line at 6:00 tomorrow.
Later on, the office building was added one more sign: “The Residential Area Of The Dark Warrior Independent Regiment Of The 9th Division” plus the other plate given by GRD, now the office building became the safest area in the entire Western District.
When it was near 0:00, a bright light suddenly appeared at the Yangtze River, followed by continuous loud explosions. Then, a giant fireball brought up a huge dark cloud soaring into the sky. It instantly lit up the entire city’s western area.
Shortly after the first wave of the explosions, it followed by a few more waves of explosions, this time, they were from the further regions of the city north and south.
All the refugees in the Western District came out of their shanties, houses, and cars in panic. They all wanted to know if it was the insect starting to push again.
After Chu Yunsheng heard the explosions, he immediately ran to the roof. In the huge fireball that was caused by the explosion, he vaguely saw the Yangtze River Bridge – A bridge that embodied countless people’s efforts and pride, collapsed and fell into the river!
