"J: Hmm, it's already counted in."
At this point in the conversation, Ren Zhong recalled the stories of test pilots he'd read about in historical accounts from his past life.
Fortunately, the cha warriors on Source Star are not just iron-encased flesh; when a fighter jet malfunctions, they still have the equipnt on their bodies for an extra layer of protection and a bit more error tolerance.
In that era where technology wasn't as advanced, being a test pilot was truly a high-risk profession.
"R: That's good. Next, increase the number of Viper Fighters to two hundred within a month."
"J: Okay. The second thing, two newly manufactured large engineering low-altitude airships have just departed from Starfire Town. They should arrive at Chromium Carbon Town by 10 AM tomorrow."
"R: OK."
"J: What does OK an?"
"R: It ans fine."
"J: OK."
"R: ..."
"J: There's a third thing."
"R: Go ahead."
"J: Hua, are you watching?"
"H: No, I'm busy."
"J: Then never mind, Ren Zhong, get so rest early."
…
The next morning at seven, Ren Zhong stood atop the fully restored eastern city gate of Chromium Carbon Town, looking down below.
Below, there were three densely packed formations.
The formation at the front was the reorganized Eastern Expedition First Army, comprised of the Fourth and Fifth armies, totaling 130,000 people, with Yuan Qinh as the army chief.
The central formation was composed of 60,000 Scavengers from Chromium Carbon Town who were either still intact or had just recovered from light injuries. This was the Eastern Expedition Second Army, led by a Fourth Level professional from within Chromium Carbon Town.
Interestingly, this person was once a mber of Jiang Kai's professional team. He followed Yang Bingzhong to Chromium Carbon Town initially and refused to return to Starfire Town with Ren Zhong, choosing to establish himself here instead.
But he never lost contact with Jiang Kai and Ren Zhong. During the subsequent campaigns of Starfire Town, whether against the Descending Demon Baby or ngdu Group's Legion Beasts, he returned to fight and survived to this day.
Thanks to his excellent performance, he naturally gained Ren Zhong's trust once again. Now, with this historic opportunity, he has been promoted further.
After all, he already had considerable influence in Chromium Carbon Town, and it's just right to place him in this position now.
As for the formation at the very back, it was made up of over 80,000 people from the Defector's Seven Towns Alliance. This force was nad the Eastern Expedition Third Army.
The Third Army was temporarily commanded by Ou Youning, but as Ou Youning was currently in confinent, the task of maintaining order fell to so relatively respected Defectors from the alliance.
The three formations were distinctly separated, layered and clear.
The foremost First Army had perfect posture and orderly rows. Every man and woman stood tall with pride, exuding an imposing aura, and their uniforms were strictly standardized. At first glance, anyone would feel this was a well-trained steel army.
The central Second Army appeared a bit chaotic. Though they had been training under army chief Guo Denghuai's orders since last evening, they weren't yet fully organized, but still far better than the Third Army at the back.
Compared with the other two formations, the Third Army's setup was a disaster, a chaotic jumble with buzzing commotion in the crowd.
Clearly, people were whispering to each other.
Despite occasional loud shouts from lower-ranking commanders amidst the crowd, they couldn't stop the trend.
Finally, Ren Zhong slowly raised his hand.
With his motion, Yujin fired, a hollow shell burst in the sky, and the crowd fell silent.
Nearly 300,000 pairs of eyes looked up in unison.
Ren Zhong took a deep breath, waved his hand expansively, and began, "Everyone, the ti to fight for yourself has co."
"After everything that happened yesterday, I'm sure you've recognized what kind of person I am. And what kind of people the Seven Towns Alliance are. The truth is evident in people's hearts. I said before, no one can provoke and get away unhard. I'm certainly not joking."
"The Seven Towns Alliance has recklessly incited trouble, threatened my life, besieged my town, and slaughtered my employees. This is intolerable! I hereby declare the Anvil Sand counterattack begins now—no retreat, no rest until death!"
"Of course, before taking real action, I want to share the true reason for fighting. I hope you will rember it well."
