The department's door was closed, leaving the wounded, students, the director of the medical center, and the FOB's person-in-charge looking at one another. No one could figure out what was going on.
To the students of Qinghe University, Ji Yi's status was very high. Jiang Xu was the honorary president of Qinghe University and also taught humanities and politics. Meanwhile, Ji Yi was also a full professor at Qinghe University. In Luoyang City, the two of them were no different from celebrities as they were extremely famous.
But now, Deputy Chief Editor Ji Yi, whom everyone respected, was actually addressing a young man as "sir." This left the students who were rebuking Ren Xiaosu a little at a loss.
"What's the background of that young man?" A student muttered, "Chief Editor Ji seems to be very respectful to him. He's definitely not faking it."
"I don't know where he's from, but since Chief Editor Ji respects him so much, it looks like we were too rash earlier. Let's all apologize to him later …."
The students who came here did not have bad intentions. They were all here to protect their homeland. This was also the reason why Ren Xiaosu did not clash head-on with them earlier.
But at this age, students might seem very opinionated, but it was actually very easy for them to be misled by one-sided things.
Actually, if it were not for Ren Xiaosu's identity as a doctor, the students might have even associated Ren Xiaosu with the young man who saved Luoyang City. But the difference between a doctor's identity as a doctor and a murderer was too great.
As a result, the students did not even think in that direction. Even Ji Yi found it a little unbelievable, much less the students.
Just as the students were whispering, the director of the medical center asked the person in charge of the forward operating base, "Isn't he a doctor from the Trinity Institute? I've never heard of such a person appearing in the Trinity Institute."
"I'm not sure." The FOB's person-in-charge shook his head. "It's just that when a P5 commander left the FOB, he specifically instructed us to take care of him. It seems like he has a very good relationship with that P5 commander …."
When P5092 led the troops out of the FOB, he had indeed instructed them to take care of him. And the status of a P5 commander in the Pyro Company was basically about the same as Jiang Xu's status in Luoyang City. Even if it was a little worse, it would not be by much.
The T Sequence was the level of combat power, while the P Sequence was the level of command. The two lines were parallel.
In other words, the P5 combatants might only be at the same level as the T4 combatants in terms of combat strength. However, they were commanding officers and would usually not participate in close combat.
In principle, T5s and P5s were on the same level and enjoyed the same treatment. However, in actual combat, T5s took orders from P5s.
P5 was the highest rank in the command sequence. Any higher would be the five bosses of the Pyro Company. Therefore, a P3 in charge of the forward operating base would definitely bear in mind the instructions given by P5092.
At this point, the commander of the forward operating base was a little puzzled. Where did this young man come from?!
At this time, Ren Xiaosu interrupted Ji Yi's nagging in the department and asked directly, "Did you lead the team to the frontline for interviews this time?"
"Yes." Ji Yi nodded and said, "It's very dangerous to be a war reporter. I have to take the lead and not just hide in the back. But you …"
"Don't say that, Mr. Ji. You don't have to be so polite with me. I'm not used to it either." Ren Xiaosu corrected Ji Yi's way of addressing him. Then he asked, "I saw in the recent Hope Media newspapers that Elder Jiang Xu has been condemning the Wang Clan. Has Hope Media strengthened its security measures? The Wang Clan is often doing risky things these days, so don't let them hurt Elder Jiang Xu."
Ji Yi said with a wry smile, "I've also reminded the chief editor, but you also know him. No one can persuade him. Actually, before I came here, the Wang Clan's people had already come to talk to the chief editor. However, the chief editor refused to meet them. In fact, he did not even let the Wang Clan's people enter the Hope Media building to avoid arousing suspicion. But I don't think the Wang Clan would do something so shocking just for the sake of news, right? "
Ren Xiaosu sighed. "I hope not."
"By the way, why did you suddenly become a doctor again?" Ji Yi wondered, "Is this … a cover for your identity? Could it be that you're planning to do something here in the Pyro Company? Is there anything you need my cooperation with? "
Ren Xiaosu shook his head. "I'm really treating patients and saving lives. I'm just a normal cardiac surgeon now. By the way, it's very dangerous to be a war reporter. Aren't you afraid? "
Ji Yi smiled. "I was a little afraid before, but now that I know you're also at the front lines, I'm suddenly not that afraid anymore."
As someone who had witnessed how fierce Ren Xiaosu was, Ji Yi always had an inexplicable sense of trust in his savior, Ren Xiaosu. It was as though nothing would happen as long as Ren Xiaosu was here.
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door. The person in charge of the forward operating base said from outside, "Sorry to interrupt, but there's something urgent."
Ren Xiaosu opened the door and asked, "What's the matter?"
The person in charge of the forward operating base said sternly, "We just received an order from the frontline headquarters. The North has already engaged the barbarians in a head-on battle, so the supplies of the forward operating base will need to be transported north. All of the medical center's personnel will also need to continue moving north, where a new medical center will be built behind the front lines."
This forward operating base was previously built to connect Mt. Dashi to the northern and southern transportation routes. However, it was still more than 100 kilometers away from the northern front lines. If the wounded were to be transported from the North for treatment, it would probably be too late by then.
Therefore, it was an urgent matter to build a new field medical center closer to the front lines.
Ren Xiaosu said, "I'll go and inform Elder Wang Jing and the others to set off as soon as possible."
…
Outside Stronghold 144 in the Northwest.
Five cargo trucks were gradually approaching the stronghold. On the road from the Central Plains to the Northwest, there were six checkpoints set up by Fortress 178 alone. These checkpoints were responsible for inspecting cargo and preventing anyone from transporting unreported dangerous goods into the Northwest.
However, the five trucks were unimpeded throughout their journey. Whenever the trucks arrived at a checkpoint, someone would greet them and inform them to let them pass.
During this period, there was no inspection process at all.
When the five cargo trucks came to a stop outside the stronghold, the driver got out of the truck and went to open the cargo container at the back. He saw Wang Yun and the others sitting inside with their eyes closed, resting.
The driver said with a smile, "Sorry for hiding in the truck for so long. Let's get out. We've arrived."
Wang Yun opened his eyes calmly. "There's nothing to be sorry about. We've suffered far worse, so this doesn't really matter."
On that day, they nearly encountered the Pyro Company after escaping from Stronghold 31. Later on, they entered the Wang Clan's territory. Big Bluff had already arranged for the trucks to escort them secretly to the Northwest.
It had to be said that Big Bluff was very reliable this time.
"Sir, where are we going now?" Wang Yun's subordinates asked as they sized up the stronghold in the Northwest.
Wang Yun thought for a moment and said, "We're looking for someone named Zhang Xiaoman."
