When they were still fighting the Soong Clan, Zhang Xiaoman had seen a steam locomotive before. At that time, they were even chased by the Soong Clan's armored brigade.
So when the iconic whimper of a steam locomotive suddenly rang out in the wilderness in the middle of nowhere, Zhang Xiaoman's first reaction was that the Young Marshal had arrived!
There were no train tracks near Mt. Youyushan. Other than Ren Xiaosu's steam locomotive, there was nothing else that could explain the sound.
When the black steam locomotive crossed the mountains and appeared, the chimney on the front of the locomotive was still spewing black smoke. Wang Yun and the others could clearly see Ren Xiaosu's figure through the window.
He said to Zhang Xiaoman in a daze, "Did someone bless your mouth?"
Zhang Xiaoman wondered, "Why do you sound like you're scolding me?"
But no one had time to care about that at this moment. Everyone was only concerned about one question. Why had Ren Xiaosu suddenly appeared here? Wasn't this too much of a coincidence?
After the steam locomotive stopped at the garrison's entrance, Zhang Xiaoman walked up to him excitedly. "Young Marshal, I finally get to see you again. It's been a while since we last met —"
"Stop, stop." Ren Xiaosu could not stand it anymore. "Why have you become like this? You weren't like this the last time we met."
"Look, weren't you still the Young Marshal the last time we met?" Zhang Xiaoman chuckled.
"Speak human."
"Why are you here all of a sudden?" Zhang Xiaoman asked.
"I saw in Hope Media's newspaper that y 'all were coming to Mt. Youyushan, so I came looking for you after the Pyro Company helped out a little," Ren Xiaosu explained.
Yang Xiaojin rolled her eyes at him. How could killing a few thousand barbarians be considered a small favor? What was a big favor? Directly destroying the expeditionary army?
Ren Xiaosu pulled P5092 to the front and said, "Let me introduce him to you. This is the P5 commander of the Pyro Company. He'll also be a citizen of the Northwest from now on. Let's bring prosperity to the Northwest!"
P5092 looked conflicted, but in the end, he did not refute anything.
But Wang Yun was shocked when he saw this. He used to be a member of the Kong Clan, so he had definitely come into contact with the Pyro Company many times.
After all, it was extremely difficult to get anything out of the Pyro Company spies.
Therefore, when the Kong Clan captured the Pyro Company spies later on, it was basically just a routine interrogation. They did not intend to make them talk.
But it was different for Ren Xiaosu. This fellow had actually managed to pry back a P5 commander of the Pyro Company?
Wang Yun looked at P5092. He had seen what P5092 looked like in a photo before, but he found it a little unbelievable. So he asked to confirm, "May I know what your serial number is?"
P5092 answered, "P5092."
"Gasp!" Wang Yun gasped. He clearly remembered the information of every P5 commander, and P5092 had always been the most troublesome one to deal with in the Pyro Company. If the commander of the Kong Clan's frontline troops heard that they were up against P5092's 3rd Division, they would be especially cautious.
It could be said that many of the Kong Clan officers would immediately admit defeat when they heard the other party's serial number.
Some people within the Kong Clan had repeatedly suggested that P5092 be assassinated because he was the most likely candidate to take over as the highest-ranking commander in recent years.
And such an important figure … had also brought prosperity to the Northwest?!
Wasn't the Northwest too fucking devilish?!
P5092 looked at Wang Yun. "You know me?"
"Yes, I know you very well." Wang Yun said, "P5092, 29 years old, likes to eat apples and likes to be alone when the troops are resting. You live at 278 Guangxing Road in Stronghold 24. You're the only one left at home."
P5092 was taken aback. "You know me so well? Could you be a member of the Kong Clan? Wait, you're that person from the Kong Clan who has a particularly good memory, right? I have an impression of you. So by investigating my address and favorite foods, are you planning to poison me? "
"That's right." Wang Yun admitted frankly, "But I'm no longer a member of the Kong Clan, so I don't have to think about how to assassinate you anymore."
P5092 was puzzled. "You've also brought prosperity to the Northwest?"
"Yes, I've also brought prosperity to the Northwest."
His former enemies had both suddenly brought prosperity to the Northwest. This was a very comical scene.
Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, "Look, the Northwest is like a big, happy family that attracts wise people and seeks common ground while reserving differences! Look at yourselves, doesn't this look like a fairy tale? The witches originally wanted to feed Snow White a poisoned apple, but under the influence of the Northwest, both parties put aside their differences and devoted themselves to the development of the Northwest! "
P5092 and Wang Yun's faces darkened.
At this moment, P5092 looked into the military camp. But when he did, he was stunned. "Who's the commanding officer of this unit? Why is the camp so messy? The soldiers and officers are also idling around. Wait a minute, aren't those two at the entrance regimental officers? Why are they still arguing?"
Zhang Xiaoman blushed and said, "I'm the commander of the 6th Combat Brigade in the Northwest."
P5092 deliberated for a long time before saying something less unpleasant, "You should reorganize this unit properly."
In an instant, P5092's occupational disease flared up. He could not stand to see the military being so disorganized. How could such an army possibly have any combat effectiveness?
P5092 looked at Ren Xiaosu. "The troops of Fortress 178 have always been known for their strict discipline and strong combat effectiveness. Why is it so different from what I imagined?"
Zhang Xiaoman hurriedly explained, "It's like this. A year ago, I was still a company commander. But after we annexed the Soong Clan, the troops expanded, causing me to be promoted three ranks in a row. I'm still in the learning stage, so I'm not a competent brigade commander yet. Actually, I'm only helping Young Marshal lead the troops out this time. He's still the one in command, and he has the final say on how to fight the war. "
P5092 thought for a moment and said, "Then you should learn from me."
With that, he walked straight to the command center as though no one was around. Zhang Xiaoman looked at Ren Xiaosu from behind and thought to himself, 'This guy is too blunt with his words. What are you talking about? I'm just learning from you.'
Ren Xiaosu whispered to him, "This P5092 is indeed outstanding when it comes to leading troops into battle. You should watch and learn from him —"
But before Ren Xiaosu could finish speaking, P5092 turned around and looked at Zhang Xiaoman. "What are you still standing there for? Gather all the officers and combat staff officers for a meeting. I want to understand the current situation of the troops and the situation of the troops in half an hour. We're going to completely reorganize the troops today, and we want to see the results within three days."
When P5092 assumed the position of commander, his aura became completely different from usual. He spoke like he was the highest-ranking officer in the troops, and he did not allow for any delay.
At this moment, P5092 looked at Ren Xiaosu and said calmly, "Don't tell me you think I'm trying to seize power?"
Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, "No, you can decide how to lead the troops. You're now the supreme commander of the troops, so you can go in and out of any place in the military base as you please."
The freedom to enter and exit the military camp coincided with Ren Xiaosu's treatment in the Pyro Company.
P5092 nodded calmly. "That's why you asked me to come to the Northwest. Since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony. I've already announced that anyone who disobeys will be punished by military law."
