The last time Zhou Chen came to this mission world, the problems of the 27th Army were not revealed until the third phase of the mission.
So from the player's point of view, there is actually no need to dig into the conspiracy behind the scenes. Anyway, you can return after the third phase of the mission is completed.
But Xiang Yi now hoped that Zhao Yan and Hou Qi would solve the matter.
"Okay, I'm fine."
Zhao Yan agreed without hesitation.
"That's okay with me too."
The same is true for Hou Qi.
So the matter was settled.
Zhao Yan and Hou Qi were able to kill a lieutenant in the Eastern Navy Regiment of more than 3,000 people. It would be even easier to capture a regimental commander in the Chinese Army with the same number of people.
Before setting off, Zhao Yan found a place to bury Lao Yangtou in the mountains and forests, and his gun was also buried in the soil with him.
No monument or wooden sign was erected. The former 'Magic Spear' Yang Er, the number one master in Pearl City, only left a small mound after his death.
Zhao Yan stood in front of the mound in silence for a moment, and then left with Hou Qi.
Although Mo Lifeng had people blow up the mountain road, the sections of road that were inaccessible to ordinary people were not an obstacle to Zhao Yan and Hou Qi.
The two quickly caught up with the large force of the 236th Regiment, but they did not go directly in to catch Mo Lifeng.
Even if there is a problem with the 236 regiment, it is only a very small number of people who have a problem. The remaining ordinary soldiers are innocent and fighting bravely for the country, so Zhao Yan and Hou Qi cannot kill them directly like they did with Dong Haijun before.
The two followed the large troops of the 236th Regiment through the mountains and forests until night. The 236th Regiment did not intend to march at night and stopped to rest.
After 11 o'clock in the evening, except for the peripheral security personnel, most of the soldiers had already put on their sleeping bags and slept.
As the leader of the regiment, Mo Lifeng received better treatment and stayed in an independent marching tent.
He was not sleeping yet, looking at the map in his hand by the light of the kerosene lamp, frowning and thinking about something.
There are two figures reflected on the tent, they are guards standing guard.
Suddenly, two figures shook almost at the same time.
Mo Lifeng, who was looking at the picture, suddenly raised his head and shouted alertly:
"Xiao Liu?"
No one responded.
Mo Lifeng immediately touched the holster on his waist and opened his mouth to shout.
But the next second, the curtain at the entrance of the tent was opened, and a strong wind blew in.
歘——
Mo Lifeng's eyes were dazzled and he didn't see the situation clearly. His whole body had been lifted up!
Before he could respond, someone picked him up and gave him a shake.
Snapped!
From his neck to his chest, to his waist and abdomen, to his thighs, and finally to his toes, all the bones in Mo Lifeng's body trembled, creating a feeling like an electric shock, and then his whole body became completely numb, unable to exert any strength.
Zhao Yan put Mo Lifeng down and let him lie limp on the ground.
He and Hou Qi sneaked in late at night and quietly knocked out the guards outside. Hou Qi was on guard outside, and he was responsible for sneaking into the military tent and questioning Mo Lifeng.
"Xiang Yi and others are not dead. The commander of the Eastern Navy who was responsible for chasing them has been beheaded by me."
Zhao Yan looked at Mo Lifeng on the ground, and the first words he said made the other person's heart sink.
Mo Lifeng looked at Zhao Yan's too young face and couldn't believe what he said.
But Zhao Yan did sneak in quietly and restrained him.
It is true that there are no martial arts masters or strangers around Mo Lifeng to protect him, but his guard company is not a vegetarian. They are all experienced warriors. Now they have been solved quietly, which is enough to prove Zhao Yan's skill. terror.
"you"
Mo Lifeng opened his mouth, his thoughts changing rapidly.
"Tell me, who is commanding you? What's the plan between you and the Eastern Navy?"
Zhao Yan didn't intend to talk nonsense with Mo Lifeng and asked directly.
"I don't know what you are talking about!"
Mo Lifeng gritted his teeth and said.
Zhao Yan sneered and looked at the other party condescendingly:
"Since you can sacrifice your life for the Eastern Navy, you must not be a loyal person, right? No matter how much glory and wealth others promise you, you must still live to enjoy it. Do you think I dare not kill you?"
Mo Lifeng was startled when he heard this, and then his face turned red, extremely angry at the humiliation in Zhao Yan's words.
brush--
Zhao Yan directly pulled out the rolling knife from behind and looked at Mo Lifeng with cold eyes:
"If you don't tell me, I'll hit you dozens of times, and I'll cut off one of your hands first. Then I'll hit you dozens of times, and then cut off the other hand, until your hands and feet are gone, and then I'll kill you with one knife."
Mo Lifeng's forehead was covered with sweat.
He was able to become the leader of the main force step by step. Naturally, he was not a coward. He was already used to life and death.
But precisely because of this, when he faced Zhao Yan's eyes like cold stars, he knew deeply that Zhao Yan was definitely not bluffing.
The other party will keep his word, cut off his limbs first, and then kill him with one knife!
"Who are you?"
"ten."
"Kill me and the 236th Regiment will be finished."
"Nine."
"Don't you care at all about the lives of thousands of people?"
"eight."
"You have been deceived. I really did not collude with the Eastern Navy!"
"seven."
"I have fought for my country and shed blood for my country. If you don't believe me, count the bullet holes in my body!"
"six."
"."
No matter what Mo Lifeng said, Zhao Yan just counted coldly, without any change in his tone of voice, and the same murderous intent in his eyes.
"If you kill me, what's the difference between you and those Donghai navy? You are helping the evil!"
"one."
After Zhao Yan finished counting the last number, he stepped forward and stepped on Mo Lifeng's left arm, waving the sword in his hand.
"etc!"
brush--
The blade scratched Mo Lifeng's military uniform and his skin, leaving a trail of blood.
"Huhu."
Mo Lifeng looked at the snow-white blade, gasped twice, and then said dejectedly:
"I was forced, and my family was controlled!"
Zhao Yan returned the knife to its sheath and looked at the opponent expressionlessly:
"Who controls your family?"
"Zou Dapeng, the current supreme commander of the 27th Army!"
"What is his purpose?"
"He was instigated by Dong Haijun to sell the entire Pearl City at a critical moment to find a future for himself."
"You led the team here this time to contact the Eastern Navy?"
"Yes, telegraphy is not safe, and letters are even less safe, so we can only communicate face to face."
"What's the specific plan?"
"."
Mo Lifeng was silent and did not tell his plan immediately. He looked at Zhao Yan:
"If you can keep my family safe, I will tell you everything I know."
Zhao Yan was silent.
He didn't believe that Mo Lifeng was forced.
If he wasn't Zou Dapeng's confidant, how could he be sent to perform such a task?
But the key now is not Mo Lifeng, but Zou Dapeng, the top commander of the 27th Army.
The 27th Army can be arranged to guard the important strategic city of Pearl City, so it is naturally an extremely important combat force. Now that the top commander of the army has surrendered to the enemy, the possible consequences will be extremely serious!
But the problem is how to make others believe that there is something wrong with Zou Dapeng?
"Do you have evidence to back up what you're saying?"
Zhao Yan asked.
Mo Lifeng said without hesitation:
"Yes! The evidence is in Pearl City, and I am the only one who knows where it is. I can help you identify Zou Dapeng, as long as you can ensure the safety of my family and not hold me accountable afterwards."
"Ah."
Zhao Yan smiled.
This guy is quite slippery and knows how to save his life.
[The player’s god of martial arts triggers a super S-level side plot]
[Super S-class branch plot: The way home
Mission content: Take Mo Lifeng, the leader of the 236th Regiment of the 27th Shenzhou Army, back to Pearl City to destroy the layout of the Eastern Navy and uncover the traitors within the 27th Army.
Note: This mission is a super S-level mission, and the difficulty exceeds the highest limit in the mission world. Players should consider it carefully]
"Um?"
Zhao Yan was startled.
He had thought that this trip might trigger a side plot, but he didn't expect that it would actually trigger a 'super S-level side plot'!
Super S level, this is a level that Zhao Yan has never heard of.
However, this also proved in disguise that Mo Lifeng was not lying. He did have evidence in Pearl City. Taking him back could indeed identify more people.
However, the difficulty of bringing Mo Lifeng back is super S-level!
"Brother Hou."
Zhao Yan suddenly shouted softly.
Soon, Hou Qi walked into the tent.
"What's wrong?"
"You come and watch him, I'll contact my companions."
"good."
So Zhao Yan walked out of the tent, found a place nearby and took out the intercom from the equipment rack to contact Xiang Yi.
Xiang Yi and others had also been marching, so the distance between the two parties was not widened, and they successfully contacted each other soon.
Zhao Yan informed the other party about Mo Lifeng, and also mentioned that he triggered the super S-level branch plot.
"Super S-level side plot?"
Xiang Yi's tone was also surprised, "I've never heard of this."
"How difficult do you think this task is?"
Zhao Yan asked.
The other side pondered for a moment and then said:
"Normally speaking, the 236th Regiment led by Mo Lifeng should be the safest team on this battlefield, because the Eastern Navy needs him to go back safely to report to Zou Dapeng, but the mission you triggered is Super S-level, so I think the only The possibility is that the Eastern Navy discovered something was wrong with Mo Lifeng and sent someone to intercept it midway."
"Um."
Zhao Yan nodded.
He also felt that the most likely difficulty of this task was here.
"Your upper limit of strength must far exceed the upper limit of difficulty of this mission, but this super-S-level mission is also beyond the limit, but I can't be sure how much it exceeds, so I can't give you any advice."
Xiang Yi's voice came from the intercom.
If this mission was S-level, then he would definitely recommend Zhao Yan to complete it without hesitation. After all, no matter how difficult a one-star mission is, there is a limit, and Zhao Yan's strength far exceeds that of a one-star mission.
But he had never heard of Super S Class before and didn't understand it at all, so he couldn't give Zhao Yan any advice.
"I'm going to try to get this done."
Zhao Yan did not hesitate and said simply.
I don’t know yet what the mission reward of this super S-level side plot is, but I can tell with my feet that it’s definitely not bad.
In addition, Zhao Yan has already started the [Road to Glory], and this mission just helps him complete the reputation requirements of [Road to Glory].
Last but not least, this mission is beneficial to the campaign.
So Zhao Yan decided to complete it!
"Okay, then I suggest you do this next."
Xiang Yi was also very straightforward. After learning about Zhao Yan's decision, he immediately gave his own advice.
"It has been confirmed that the person who took action was Hou Qi, and the person who joined forces with him was the stranger who appeared at the headquarters that night."
Otake Jiro stood in front of Fujimoto Toshinichi's body and said with a gloomy expression.
At this time, he had already regrouped the coalition led by Toshinichi Fujimoto.
Pei Deng stood beside him, narrowed his eyes, and said in fluent Donghai dialect:
"Then Mo Lifeng's side is at risk of being exposed."
The assassins that night were in the same group as Xiang Yi and others, and Xiang Yi and others were sold by Mo Lifeng. Now that the two sides are in contact, Hou Qi and the assassin will naturally know that there is something wrong with Mo Lifeng.
"Commander!"
After Otakejiro thought for a moment, he immediately called for the soldiers:
"Telegram to the headquarters: Mo Lifeng may be exposed, please get rid of him! Hou Qi and the assassins who escaped that night are involved in this matter, please send experts for support!"
Although Mo Lifeng may only be exposed, Otakejiro has decided to get rid of the other party without hesitation.
Without Mo Lifeng, Zou Dapeng could send others to contact them, but once Zou Dapeng was exposed, the top-secret plan that the Donghai Navy had planned and prepared for more than a year had failed!
The telegram was sent out quickly, and the headquarters also quickly called back, and it was an order personally issued by Hideki Hoshino:
"Get rid of Mo Lifeng and the 236th Regiment, and if possible, get rid of Hou Qi and the assassin together!"
After receiving the order, Otakejiro turned to look at Pei Deng:
"Mr. Pei, can you locate Mo Lifeng?"
"Can."
Pei Den nodded.
His genetic mutation belongs to the field of perception. In addition to the ability of [Realm of Confusion], he also has the ability of [Chasing Souls].
He had a close encounter with Mo Lifeng just the day before yesterday, and he could use [Soul Chasing] to sense the opponent's location!
"Okay, then the next thing is Mr. Laopei."
Otakejiro said to Pei Deng.
Pei Deng smiled slightly and licked his lips:
"I'm very interested in being able to hunt down the current grandmaster!"
Early the next morning, members of the 236th regiment discovered that their regiment leader was missing.
Dozens of guards were knocked unconscious, and the tent was empty except for a handwritten letter from Mo Lifeng.
In the letter, he asked the deputy commander to take over the command of the 236th Regiment and lead the troops to withdraw from the war zone. He also said that the troops might be attacked by the Eastern Navy and the situation was very dangerous. He asked everyone not to waste time to find him and immediately Set off.
Of course, it was impossible for the 236th Regiment not to look for Mo Lifeng, but after searching for several hours, they couldn't find any trace, so they had to give up in the end.
At this time, Mo Lifeng was being led over the mountains by Zhao Yan and Hou Qi.
Xiang Yi's advice to Zhao Yan was to stop caring about the 236th Regiment and take Mo Lifeng back to Pearl City alone.
If the matter is exposed, the 236th Regiment will inevitably be attacked by the Eastern Navy. The people with this regiment may not be safe. It is better for Zhao Yan and Hou Qi to go into battle lightly and only take Mo Lifeng with them.
Now the three of them are on their way home.
They need to pass through hundreds of kilometers of mountainous areas and cross the Li River before they can return to Pearl City.
And what awaits them on their way home is a huge wave!
