Chapter Ninety-Nine: Furious Chapter 100: Reason for Existence
99. Furious
The more Sanders fought, the more frightened he became, he had already used a lot of strength, but the kid on the other side seemed to be hit by nothing on his body. Although he must be wearing a bulletproof vest, Sanders is also a quasi-eighth-level master, and he knows very well how much power his fists carry.
Not to mention that Zhao Li is a mediocre player who is not yet level six in his impression, even if he is replaced by a novice who has also just passed level eight, he can completely take over so many of his punches, and it may not be so easy.
However, in the end, the gap in strength is still significant, and the damage that Zhao Li can bring to Sanders is not as big as he imagined. It can only be regarded as barely causing Sanders a little trouble, hindering his final attack power and frequency. But Zhao Li wants to use this to defeat Sanders, and it doesn't seem that simple.
Sanders' fists, getting heavier. If it weren't for the true qi condensed by the Seven or Nine Weeks of the Basic Physical Fitness Technique, it would have been impossible for Zhao Li to persevere. Fortunately, Sanders attacked the chest, abdomen and back, which happened to be the places where the basic physical fitness technique could reach, and if it was another place, Zhao Li would have been defeated a long time ago.
It was another heavy punch, and it could be seen that Sanders wanted a quick victory and put down Zhao Li. Zhao Li still handled it in the same way, while he hit his fist, his body jumped, and his hands had already grabbed Sanders' arm in the air. In the air unloading space, with the power of Sanders's arm, he quickly turned in a circle, and the standard grappling made Sanders's stretched arm to the back with just the right lever principle.
Immediately after that, Zhao Li was one hand was torn apart, his hands were struggling, click, a familiar voice, while Sanders's arm softened, Zhao Li seemed to have no strength, and he couldn't get up from lying on the ground.
It seems that a boulder has been blocked in his chest, and Sanders has punched down so much, even if Zhao Li has the condensed true qi cushion, he is still uncomfortable. I wanted to cough but couldn't cough, so I could only lie there and retch, but I couldn't vomit anything, which was very uncomfortable. The pain was mixed with this feeling, making Zhao Li feel as if he was being dismantled.
"Stinky boy, what a fucking beating!" Sanders dragged his limp arm and couldn't help but curse. Put his unjointed hand on the ground, stretch his fingers a little inconveniently, hold his arm, and press down suddenly. Kara, with a bang, the joints that had just been removed by Zhao Li were pressed back to their original positions. This action is very neat.
Zhao Li lay down and didn't move, and he hadn't dispelled all the pain on his body until now. Retched a few times, but couldn't spit out anything: "Hey, Sanders, is it necessary to be so ruthless?" β
"When you tossed me in prison, you were much more ruthless than this." Sanders stroked his shoulder, and the joints he had just fitted were still a little painful anyway.
"Why are you here?" Zhao Li sat on the ground and worked hard to make the basic physical fitness technique work for a week, so that the pain was slightly relieved, and he no longer continued to retch.
"No, I just came when I wanted to." Sanders did not answer the question positively. Rubbing his shoulders and moving his arms, he walked to Zhao Li's side and sat down against the tree.
Hearing this, Sanders didn't really want to talk about this topic, so Zhao Li changed the question: "Why did you appear in front of me?" You don't just want to beat me up, do you? β
"What? Can't you? Sanders didn't feel that he had saved face just now, although he had an advantage, he was still broken by Zhao Li's skillful arm, and his tone was very unwilling.
"Please, you're making it hard for me to do this!" After going through so many things, Zhao Li is no longer the boy who is simply one and two, right and wrong.
"Why, Old Man Kang can stay there moisturizing, and I can't show up?" Sanders was a little dissatisfied with Zhao Li's statement of favoritism: "If I had known, I would have let those gunmen end up with you!" β
Next, both of them seemed to have exhausted their energy in the exercise after the meal, and rested against the tree for a while, neither of them spoke.
The emergency communicator on Zhao Li's wrist suddenly vibrated and buzzed. This is the agreement between Zhao Li and Kristine, there is nothing to do, Dressine will never open the communication casually.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Li stepped forward and stood up.
"One of our warriors has been killed, you will be back immediately!" Kristin's voice was very short and anxious, and when Zhao Li heard that the warrior was killed, his mind was hot: "Let everyone be on guard, wait for me to come back!" β
"Something's wrong?" Sanders looked at Zhao Li's reaction and asked. Zhao Li didn't have time to explain the reason, and he didn't know what was going on, so he just nodded and began to call Li Mengdie.
"I'll take a look too, I've been itching my bones in the past few years." Sanders dropped a sentence and immediately began to run to the place where he had just eaten, where his backpack and gun were.
Contacting Li Mengdie, Zhao Li began to have a headache with Sanders. This guy seems to be warm-hearted, or really what he said, idle and uncomfortable, and actually armed to help. Although the addition of Sanders, a special firearms expert, will definitely increase the combat effectiveness of Zhao Li's side, his identity is very troublesome.
"Except for you and Old Man Kang, who will know my identity?" Sanders didn't care at all about this question: "Those guys are very generous to erase all our information, and no one will know about it if they do anything here." β
"Who the hell robbed the prison?" Zhao Li couldn't help his curiosity and asked Sanders again.
"I can't say, but it's definitely a soldier." Sanders still didn't have a definite answer, and could only find a little bit of a question from some of the clues: "The people who robbed the prison that day were definitely not a group of people, who robbed some people separately and pulled us away immediately." The specific identities and their purpose are not yet clear. However, it can be regarded as a good thing! β
Zhao Li couldn't hold back this time and didn't refute Sanders. He knew that from Sanders's point of view, these were understandable, and those people should be regarded as benefactors who rescued them from prison. Even if he didn't say anything, Zhao Li couldn't force him to say something, not to mention, Sanders was obviously merciful and didn't kill him with a gun at the beginning.
Waiting for the time of Li Mengdie's battleship, Zhao Li spent it in contradictions. Do you want to accept Sanders' help or not? While certainly good for himself, Sanders' identity is a big trouble.
"You can't act at will!" After thinking about it, I still felt that I needed help, although I didn't know what was going on over there, but it would definitely be a big trouble to get Kristeen to use emergency communication within a few days. With Sanders here, he might be able to help a lot.
"Yes, sir!" Sanders was a standard soldier, much more standard than Old Man Kang's joking promise.
"Also, you can't talk to anyone about your previous experiences, including Old Man Kang!" Zhao Li deliberately emphasized: "Especially Old Man Kang, it is forbidden for you to communicate about the past." β
"I know better than you what you can say and what you can't." This time, Sanders was not polite, and directly hit Zhao Li slightly: "When you were still wearing open crotch pants, I was already the elite of the army." β
"Can you find the positions of the other team members?" As soon as Zhao Li boarded the battleship, he asked Li Mengdie.
"Their positioning systems are all working, and you can find them right away." Li Mengdie estimated that she also received a notice from Christine, and she didn't waste time at all.
"Pick everyone up and go back to the barracks!" Time is of the essence, but when something happens, you can't leave the team members alone. Moreover, from Kristin's tone, it seemed that there was a lot of trouble, and Zhao Li also needed the strength of these soldiers.
"What the hell is going on?" When Zhao Li got down from the battleship, he felt that the atmosphere in the base was not right, and he was very nervous. Every soldier left behind was loaded with ammunition, and those automatic defensive weapons were fully fired, could it be that someone wanted to blatantly attack the barracks? Zhao Li had already noticed that every soldier's face was full of anger to the extreme.
Kristine pointed to a soldier with all his limbs in plaster: "Let him tell you!" His face was gloomy, and he didn't have the magic of turning all beings upside down before.
The plaster cast shows that all the limbs are broken, and the soldier's face is still bruised, which can be concluded that he was beaten. When Zhao Li saw it, he was indignant: "Who did it?" β
In training, except for Kristin, it is impossible to shoot so hard. And these soldiers could never provoke Kristine at such a time, let alone one of them.
"Sir!" Seeing Zhao Li, the soldier almost cried. Zhao Litie's face was blue: "Who did it?" Speak slowly! β
"It's those damn guys!" The soldier began to tell the story in fits and starts.
Lately everything has been in order, so two soldiers asked Christine for leave to take a look at the city not far away. Kristin had specifically checked that since the two soldiers came here, they had not taken a vacation, so they were given a day off to go out and relax.
Unexpectedly, not long after leaving the camp, before arriving in the city, he encountered a wandering guerrillas. As soon as the fellows saw that they were wearing military uniforms, they immediately gathered around.
According to the performance of these soldiers and ruffians in the past, when they encounter the guerrillas, they must have said good things, and they will agree to whatever they want. However, everyone has begun to slowly gain some self-confidence recently, so between words, it is no longer as respectful as before.
This, of course, caused discontent among those partisans. Suddenly, someone had an excuse and came up to push and shove, intending to teach the two of them a lesson. The soldiers who had accepted Zhao Li and Li Mengdie's rotational training for such a long time would certainly not be restrained and immediately began to resist.
Because it was a vacation, he didn't bring a weapon, but with his bare hands, he also put down at least three people on the other side. So, the embarrassed and angry guys immediately took out the style of scoundrels. began to use guns to force the two to do something insulting to their surnames.
In the past, everyone naturally endured and endured, not seeking merit, but seeking no fault, but now this is not the case at all. The two soldiers were also stubborn, and they were beaten all over their bodies, and they did not give in.
The guys couldn't hold their faces on their faces, so they punched and kicked another soldier who was more resolute, and a dozen people took turns beating the other soldier to death. The soldier who survived was not spared, his limbs were broken, and then he was sent to the main road outside the barracks, and only after a very arrogant warning of the gun, he swaggered away.
"Do you know who those guys are?" Zhao Li was already a little unable to suppress his anger, forcibly suppressed the fire, and asked the surviving soldier.
"I don't know, they didn't identify themselves." The soldiers did not know the exact identities of those men.
"You take good care of your injuries, my debts, I will get them back for you!" Patting the soldier and letting him rest well, Zhao Li turned around and left the ward.
Li Mengdie and Christine followed all the time, and even Sanders and Old Man Kang heard this outside. Seeing Zhao Li's angry face come out, Christine bit her lip: "Zhao Li, don't be impulsive!" She had just noticed that Zhao Li had been clenching his fists tightly when he listened to the soldier's narration.
"Impulsive?" Hearing Kristeen's words, he calmed down: "Why be impulsive? Don't worry, impulsiveness won't solve the problem, I know! β
"What channel is there to inform all the guerrillas?" Zhao Li turned to Old Man Kang's side: "I want to give an ultimatum to those guerrillas, whoever did it, hand them over to me!" β
"It's as simple as letting the city's TV station broadcast a few news items." Old man Kang then replied: "However, I don't think this will make them jump out on their own!" β
"Then add a little arrogant provocation!" Zhao immediately replied: "I'm going to let these bastards jump out on their own!" The people who killed me, don't think so comfortable, if no one admits it, I'll follow the list one by one! β
"No problem, those people will be able to see it tonight." Kang Hongyuan also seemed to know Zhao Li's anger at this time, and did not persuade or contradict.
"Elite squad, all go back and rest!" As Zhao Li walked, he gave a loud order: "Other fighters, continue training." The barracks are on duty and double-posted, and everyone is ready for battle! β
"You come with me!" Pointing to Li Mengdie, Zhao Li took her to approach the underground fortifications. Only Crestin, Kang Hongyuan and Saunders were left.
"If he really wants to do this, it will be dangerous." Kristine frowned: "You don't persuade him either?" Just two soldiers. Although she didn't know Kang Hongyuan's identity, many times, Zhao Li would listen to Old Man Kang's words, but this was true.
"Persuade? How to persuade? This is a military camp, and if you are bullied to the head, can you still be a turtle with a shrunken head? Kang Hongyuan gave a rare generous hand: "If your own people suffer a big loss, but you can't get back the field, it will chill the hearts of all your subordinates." There are some things that you can't bear. β
"You are?" Now Kristeen has a chance to ask Sanders about his identity.
"I'm Zhao Li's friend!" Sanders said in a loud voice: "Also, I support this old guy's statement. You are not a pure warrior, many things, you don't understand! β
100. Raison d'Γͺtre
The reason why he wanted to pull Li Mengdie down was because Zhao Li couldn't open the door of the hidden arsenal. It's a shame to say, although there are passwords and keys to enter and exit, but there is no corresponding power to open them.
It's just that when he was halfway through, Zhao Li stopped, thought about it a little along the way, such an action was very inappropriate, and subconsciously turned into the conference room next to him.
This conference room, which used to store two boxes of amethyst weighing two tons, was also the place where Kristine saw the pile of amethyst at that time and made a breakthrough. Now that the messy place has been placed normally, Zhao Li found a chair and sat down.
"Ah Die, I want revenge, do you think it should be?" Zhao Li asked Li Mengdie, who followed up: "Or, do you have anything to persuade me?" "I don't know when, Zhao Li was already in the two of them, calling Li Mengdie Adie. And at such times, Li Mengdie is always like an iceberg melting.
Li Mengdie shook her head: "There's nothing to say, if they dare to kill, they will have to bear the consequences of killing." β
"But Christine seems to have a different opinion." Zhao Li was surprised, he also came out of a genius school, and his views were completely different.
"She's not a combatant!" Li Mengdie explained the difference in opinions between the two sides in one sentence: "Her profession makes her pay more attention to your safety and other effects." "It's very rare, although Li Mengdie is very dissatisfied with Kristin's frequent ambiguous relationship with Zhao Li, she doesn't say bad things about Kristin.
"I'm sorry, Adie, dragging you in!" Zhao Li was a little embarrassed, after all, he was the chief official here, and all of this was because of his own orders. Li Mengdie and Kristeen were both dragged here by him, and now they may be involved in this kind of thing again.
"Don't be sorry, Zhao Li." Li Mengdie didn't care at all, with an indifferent expression: "My next task after graduation is to participate in all kinds of battles as much as possible and hone myself." Where is the fight not the battle? This is not contradictory. β
The way the genius school cultivates combat cadets is really not that simple. Just such a simple arrangement, it can be seen that in addition to letting them undergo rigorous training in school, various methods will also be used to increase their actual combat experience.
"Maybe I should listen to what other people think!" Zhao Li nodded, sat in place, closed his eyes and recuperated. As soon as he came back, he heard this unpleasant news, although he barely rested for a while on the battleship, it was far from enough, and the survival training for several days in a row still consumed a lot of Zhao Li's energy.
Giving everyone enough time to digest and absorb the news, Zhao Li once again gathered a few minds to discuss the possible consequences of the next military action. Attending the meeting, in addition to Zhao Li and the two daughters, there were also Lao Lai, the gunman, Kang Hongyuan and Sanders, who came back with him.
"Old man, if I attack, what bad effect will it have on us?" The first person Zhao Li asked for advice was Kang Hongyuan. Although this old man may not be very good at military affairs, when it comes to political foresight, all the people present are not as good as his old man's little finger.
"Trouble!" Old man Kang used one word to describe it: "The law here is read by the Federation, and rash military action will bring great trouble to the military." Moreover, there needs to be a legitimate reason, and although we have such a reason, the people will not necessarily accept it. β
Kang Hongyuan's answer made Kristine a little surprised, and Kang Hongyuan, who swore that he would take revenge not long ago, actually said that it was very troublesome to do so. Which side is this old man on?
"I agree with the old man, I still advise against rash acts." Kristeen looked at Sanders, and there were still Lai and the gunman around him, so it couldn't be too obvious: "It's not good for safety." If I have to do it, I recommend asking for help from above first, or at least reporting it. The side reminded Zhao Li of his safety question. After all, they have less than two hundred people, and the opponent is so arrogant that it is not known which organization, no matter which, is not something that the garrison can contend with.
"Lai, gunman, you two are familiar with this place, what do you think?" Zhao Li did not reply directly, and turned to Lao Lai and the gunman.
"It's a nuisance, sir!" Lao Lai spoke on behalf of the two: "However, if we don't do anything, then what's the difference from before? β
"We just talked about how to do it, not whether we should do it or not!" Zhao Li nodded and gave the two of them a reassuring look. Hearing Zhao Li's words, the two had nothing to say and closed their mouths.
"When is the manifesto playing?" Zhao Li asked again.
"Tonight, tomorrow night at the latest, there should be an echo." Kang Hongyuan answered the question briefly: "In addition, Kristen's words make sense, at least we can't act within a day or two, and you should report to the top." β
"Lai, gunman, I need all the information about the organizations that may be involved here, and I can organize everything you can find." Zhao Li began to give orders.
"Yes, sir!" The two of them brushed up together and agreed.
"Old man, you are responsible for grasping the scale of our propaganda, making sure that all the local residents feel that we have been greatly wronged, and asking all public opinion to support and sympathize with us." There was no more suitable candidate than Kang Hongyuan, and Zhao Li was not polite, and gave an order directly.
"All? No way. Kang Hongyuan is not a soldier, and the way he answers questions is different from that of a soldier: "However, I can only do my best, and I dare not guarantee the effect." Even if he answered, it was not leaky, and it was impossible to find any language problems from above.
"Sanders, these days, I need you to train everyone as much as possible on the essentials of group action shooting." Zhao Li did not let go of Sanders, since he came, he had to use it.
"Yes, sir!" Sanders is a pure soldier, and although he does not have a military rank, he answers the question in exactly the same way as the two soldiers: "If time permits, I suggest you go to James, who is also here, and I believe he will be very helpful." β
"James?" Zhao Li was a little surprised, but quickly regained his composure. At that time, it was because of the place name of Jin Wuxing that he heard from James's mouth, so Zhao Li chose here, and he was here, which was not a particularly unbelievable thing. I just don't know what they're here for.
Sanders's words make a lot of sense, if James, a flight expert, comes out, the combat effectiveness of the warships in the base can at least double. And with the support of military warships, the odds are even greater.
"Where is he, take me tomorrow." Zhao Li turned from calm to excitement, and it was good news to see a friend in prison again.
"Kristin, we need to talk!" After ordering all this, Zhao Licai and Kristine spoke, no matter what, Kristine is also the one who helps herself, at least, her own people can't have anything to think of at this moment, Zhao Li still needs to communicate with her as necessary. Christine nodded and followed Zhao Li out of the conference room.
β¦β¦
"General, this is my initial idea!" In the screen, General Lucas frowned, and since he heard what Zhao Li wanted to do, he had been frowning and did not speak.
"General!" Zhao Li couldn't help but scream when he saw that General Lucas hadn't spoken. This General Lucas, I don't know what he's thinking? Doesn't he want to change the status quo on the edge planet? Presumably, even with his strength as a level 8 master, he could sweep the entire area with a random special combat team!
"You don't know about the special situation in the fringe areas, do you?" General Lucas finally relaxed his frowning brow, as if he had made some decision.
"Yes, General, I know!" Zhao Li stood straight, even in front of the communicator screen thousands of miles away, this is the courtesy and respect of the subordinates to the superiors: "But ......" hesitated slightly, and looked at the general a little uncertainly, hoping to get his permission.
"Go on!" Sure Zhao Li is going to say something unpleasant, General Lucas doesn't care, he also wants to listen carefully to what the people below think. And these words, it seems that except for Zhao Li, a bold person, no one dares to say it to him.
"I think, General, I think the military has some problems with the strategy of dealing with the edge planets." Zhao Li did have something to say, and he knew that General Lucas was his own person, otherwise he would not have said it so bluntly. After getting along with Kang Hongyuan for a long time, he still knows very well what he can say to his boss and what he can't say, so he has been emphasizing that it is his own point of view from the beginning.
"The military is a little too conniving with these underground forces on the edge planets." Zhao Li tried his best to organize the vocabulary, trying not to arouse the special disgust above: "The indulgence is a bit excessive, and anyone dares to criticize or even insult the military camp arranged here." β
"Moreover, I think," Zhao Li once again emphasized that this is his opinion: "The military has completely lost the majesty of the military here, and the original deterrent effect of the garrison has become useless." The morale of the soldiers is low, they don't even have the most basic sense of belonging, it's a bad thing, general! β
"Finished?" General Lucas had been listening quietly and did not interrupt Zhao Li's words. After listening to Zhao Li's announcement, he spoke.
"Yes, General!" Zhao Li replied seriously, probably feeling that what he said was really excessive, and immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, general, I talked a little too much." β
"It's okay!" General Lucas didn't care about this, what he cared about was that Zhao Li had only been there for a few months, and it seemed that those already hopeless soldiers had re-established their pride as soldiers.
"So, do you think the military has the strength to completely put the periphery in order?" casually asked a question to Zhao Li, and General Lucas picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip slowly.
"Yes!" Zhao Li is convinced of the military's strength. Even if it is not possible to eliminate the underground forces in the entire periphery area at the same time, it is definitely more than enough to eliminate one or several at a time. And this is only the use of the forces of the military districts, not the mobilization of the entire federal army.
"So, do you think we'd like to see the army look like this?" General Lucas became relaxed instead, took his coffee, and leaned comfortably on the back of his wide chair: "Sit down and talk." β
"Thank you, General!" Zhao Li sat down obediently and looked at the general on the screen. He also had some doubts about General Lucas's question: "Is it because there is some special reason here?" β
Law? Zhao Licai would not think that in this area where terrorists and drug traffickers are rampant, there really are any explicit laws that can stop the military's actions. It's so easy to find a reason, and it's so easy that a single catch is a lot. If this is the case, then there must be some deep-seated reason.
"Of course!" General Lucas does not hide anything: "Everything exists for its reasons, and it is the same here." β
When the general said this, he probably wanted to explain to Zhao Li, who was sitting in a precarious position, waiting to listen to the teachings.
"First of all, with the situation in all regions being very good, the military needs a chaotic area as a place to keep the blood of the army and train soldiers!" General Lucas explained slowly. Although he spoke casually, Zhao Li knew that what General Lucas said now could almost be said to be a secret of the military's top brass, and if he could say it to himself, he would simply treat it as his own person.
"A training place?" Zhao Li had just hesitated, and General Lucas on the opposite side had already laughed: "Of course, is there a more suitable place than here?" There is an army, there is power, there are drug lords, drug lords, terrorists are terrorists. Every year, our special forces will conduct actual combat training here, and the results are outstanding. β
In Zhao Li's mind, he immediately flashed the secret arsenal under the military camp. The weapons there are by no means available to ordinary soldiers, it has been said before that they are exclusively for the use of some special people, and now I finally understand who prepared them. And here, as the general said, there is really no shortage of mission goals.
"Secondly, the presence of such a chaotic region also helps to improve the military's position in the political axe." General Lucas did not say much about this, but only mentioned it. Zhao Li also didn't fully understand that political things are sometimes so simple that they can't be added, and sometimes they're so complicated that they're a mess.
"Don't those people care?" Zhao Li didn't know why the marginal areas had elevated the military's status, but he also knew that as a politician, the prosperity and stability of all the regions under his rule was the embodiment of his political achievements, which was completely contrary to the military's original intention of wanting to keep the region.
"What do they know?" General Lucas dismissively denounced the so-called politicians: "In addition to talking about Mingzhuo, you know that the election is either power." The only way to legally change the periphery is to change the laws here. However, how could those underground forces in the periphery allow them to modify? How can their representatives and spokesmen of the people, either dare not come, or are killed when they come? β
"If you have maintained the combat effectiveness of the army, why are you still losing the war with the rebels?" Zhao Li was noncommittal about the reason for the existence of the periphery, but he was still concerned about the war with the rebels.
(To be continued)
