Let you change the Hongqi h9, not the Hongqi missile vehicle

It's truly heartbreaking.

"Commander, are you really going to let them go like this? They have quite a few connections in Southeast Province."

"What if they join forces with other interest groups to attack us?"

"With our small base, how could we possibly be a match for them?"

"Yes, Commander, we must nip it in the bud. If you don't cripple them, then it's fine."

"They actually let them go. They'll definitely not let us off the hook in the future."

"At that time, they will definitely treat us more cruelly than we treat them."

The other soldiers were puzzled, since they had already captured the enemy's headquarters.

These people are their hostages.

They should treat them the same way they treat others.

Didn't these people kidnap a little girl to demand ransom?

They could also kidnap these people and demand ransom from their headquarters.

Anyway, these interest groups aren't short of money.

Letting them go like this is too lenient on them.

"They are not as simple as you think."

"The interest groups behind these people all have military backgrounds."

"If we really kill them, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Because these investors are from the military of various countries, if things get out of hand..."

“Those countries will send troops over, and then the situation in the Southeast will deteriorate further.”

"It evolved from the previous warlord conflicts into a large-scale war between countries."

"At that time, this place will no longer be the same as it is now; it will become a true hell."

Jiang Chen sighed softly at these people who were worse than pigs and dogs.

He certainly wanted to wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

But he knew he absolutely could not do that.

A war at the national level is beyond his control.

Most importantly, every country knows that the Southeast is rich in mineral resources.

And many other rare resources.

Every country wants to turn this place into a battlefield.

This gives them a valid reason to come here and extract resources under a legitimate name.

Jiang Chen naturally wouldn't let them succeed.

“But they will still come to attack us in the future; we can’t kill all their soldiers.”

"Interest groups will always occupy this land in Southeast State."

"Unless all the resources here are exhausted, but what if that day comes?"

"What should the local residents do? They're already suffering enough."

"But by then, their fate might be even worse."

The soldiers behind Jiang Chen also sighed.

Are we just going to let these interest groups run rampant here?

Are they just supposed to watch helplessly, without daring to put up any resistance?
If that's the case, then what's the point of today's task?

Interest groups are simply impossible to defeat.

"Changing the current situation is not something that can be done overnight."

"Of course, I will do my best, believe me."

"As long as I'm here, these interest groups can forget about comfortably reaping benefits here anymore." Jiang Chen's lips curled into a cold smile.

He had already made his plans in mind.

The reason why interest groups can thrive in Southeast State is because they have been operating there for a long time and have established stable channels and profit chains.

These interest groups secretly collude with each other, their understanding remaining unspoken.

They each divided up their territory and began mining resources.

Once this chain of interests is broken, the so-called interest group will naturally collapse.

Of course, this was just Jiang Chen's initial idea.

It will take a lot of effort and time to achieve this.

At the very least, he needs to establish a foothold and make a name for himself in the southeastern state before he can mobilize the local people.

"Alright, let's get out of here quickly. Even though we've taken control of their headquarters."

"But there are still quite a few enemies lurking around the group."

"We can't let the losses get any worse. We need to get out of here right now."

Jiang Chen glanced at the girl in the corner and gave his subordinates a casual instruction.

Immediately, the two team members carried the girl on their backs.

They only have temporary control of this headquarters.

Jiang Chen had no intention of making this his base of operations.

That's not a wise move.

Because this place is too conspicuous.

If other interest groups wanted to attack them, they could pose a huge threat simply by using missiles and long-range centrally controlled strikes.

Jiang Chen came here today to save people.

The mission is accomplished; nothing else matters.

After bringing the hostages to safety, Jiang Chen immediately instructed the tribal chief he was working with to send people to meet them.

"Take them away quickly, we can't stay here any longer, lest we get ambushed."

Jiang Chen looked at these relatively unfamiliar people and said calmly.

These people are all combat personnel carefully selected from various tribes.

Their ability should be fine.

But Jiang Chen was worried about something else.

"Hehe, Boss Jiang Chen, you can rest assured and leave it to us."

"We will definitely return the hostages to your base safely."

Jiang Chen nodded. As these people were about to leave, he gave them another meaningful look and continued:

"Remember, never touch a hair on this woman's head."

"If I find out, none of you will have an easy time."

These people were slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

Their expressions were somewhat unnatural.

In the end, he could only give an awkward smile and nod.

"Since Boss Jiang Chen has said so..."

"Of course we won't touch her, don't worry."

Jiang Chen was indeed not very at ease with these people.

The locals generally had poor military skills; they had no idea what it meant to treat prisoners of war well.

To them, the hostages that Jiang Chen helped them seize were still hostages in their hands.

It makes no difference.

In their eyes, the so-called hostages weren't even human. Besides, although this woman was covered in wounds, you could tell she was a beauty just by looking at her face.

Jiang Chen's concerns were not unfounded.

Now that we've given them a warning, they probably won't dare to be too presumptuous.

If there hadn't been absolutely no other way, Jiang Chen wouldn't have wanted these people to come and pick up the hostages.

We simply didn't have enough manpower, so we didn't bring much.

Moreover, these local tribes also contributed their share.

Jiang Chen's collaborations have never been a one-sided effort.

Jiang Chen understood this simple truth all too well: the more selfless and generous one's dedication and generosity, the more people would look down on them.

Seeing that the hostages had been safely escorted to another location, Jiang Chen also called to his men:

"Brothers, our troops are still in danger. We need to go back and reinforce them immediately."

"Haha, finally I can have a good fight, I've been holding back for so long."

"We have to fight them with real weapons."

The others clenched their fists and said excitedly.

Their four team members each led a team of twenty men to engage the enemy's main force.

This is the kind of battle a man should fight.

Who wouldn't want to show their glory on the battlefield and fight the enemy?

"Remember, our mission is complete. Now we're just covering our teammates' retreat."

"Don't get entangled with them; they outnumber us and have the upper hand."

"Moreover, they are experienced and mostly hide in the jungle."

To prevent his teammates from underestimating their opponents, Jiang Chen quickly reminded them.

Even if the mission is accomplished, one fact cannot be ignored.

Their enemy was a seasoned special forces unit.

The enemy outnumbered them.

Even in terms of equipment, Jiang Chen and his team didn't have much of an advantage. Soon, Jiang Chen led the remaining team members to the front lines.

At this moment, the situation here can be described as chaotic.

The first and third squads were each one kilometer apart.

The second and fourth squads somehow ended up together, and found themselves in a predicament of being attacked from both sides...

Enemies were all around, and I didn't even know which direction to attack.

What exactly is going on now?

"Did you surround the enemy, or did the enemy surround you?"

Jiang Chen was also somewhat helpless. Without his command, these guys really did make a mess of things.

They didn't even have basic tactical coordination.

"Commander, these people are not simple; they keep changing positions."

"They've put us in a position that's most disadvantageous for us."

"The enemy had too many people, and we had no choice but to passively abandon our previous positions."

"Now we can only fight a guerrilla war with them and wait for your reinforcements."

The other team members also said with wry smiles.

Ever since the missile attack on their position.

All the troops were thrown into chaos, focused only on dodging the missile attacks.

As a result, many people were killed or wounded, but the enemy didn't fare much better.

The enemy probably didn't expect that their artillery regiment command post would also fire shells at their own men.

Therefore, the enemy is now fleeing in all directions.

They also occasionally launch sneak attacks.

This caused widespread anxiety among the four teams.

Everyone became increasingly vigilant, carefully observing their surroundings.

"Hehe, the more chaotic the battle, the better. It just means the enemy is more chaotic than you."

Jiang Chen said with a smile.

He then assessed the current situation.

He glanced at the topographical map he was carrying and then gave the order.

"Listen up, everyone. I don't care how chaotic things are right now."

"Immediately proceed according to my plan towards the 311 area. Ignore any enemies encountered along the way."

"Fight if you can, cover your retreat if you can't."

After hearing Jiang Chen's words, everyone seemed to have found a pillar of support.

They began to gradually move towards the Sanyaoyi area.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

In less than ten minutes.

The four teams then broke free from the chaos.

Unfortunately, the first squad leader's luck was still bad along the way.

He was shot in the calf by a sniper from the enemy.

He lost the ability to move on the spot.

This is also the most regrettable aspect of Jiang Chen's operation.

Of the twenty-odd people he brought, there were not many left.

There were only twelve people.

Now there are even fewer, only eleven people left.

We need to bring more people over from space.

The troops he trained had all experienced actual combat, and he himself had also led troops.

I've accumulated some combat experience.

It's not easy to cultivate someone like that.

The loss of each person is a great pain for Jiang Chen.

Fortunately, most of the main force suffered no losses.

There were a total of one hundred people in them this time, and now there are thirty-four left.

Moreover, they annihilated more than two hundred enemies and successfully completed their mission.

They dismantled the opposing interest group.

"Li Zong, you've really worked hard this time. Go back to Space City and rest well later. I'll send someone to pick you up."

"Everyone else, evacuate immediately and in an orderly manner. Don't stay here any longer."

"We don't yet know how many enemy troops are still in the vicinity, so we must proceed with caution."

The closer the battle got to its end, the more worried Jiang Chen became.

Now he doesn't want to lose any more team members.

Everyone quickly and orderly withdrew to their base.

Meanwhile, the tribal chiefs were already waiting for Jiang Chen.

When they discovered that Jiang Chen had actually brought back a large group of people.

I was quite shocked.

"Haha, Jiang Chen, we've finally been waiting for you. Luckily, nothing bad happened to you this time."

"As expected of Jiang Chen, even Hisun Corporation back then probably couldn't compare to half of you."

Everyone admired Jiang Chen from the bottom of their hearts.

The Hailey Group has long been a powerful force in their southeastern state.

No one dares to provoke them, not even the three major powers.

And now Jiang Chen is leading such a small group of people.

Not only did they successfully rescue the hostages, but they also eliminated so many enemies.

Such achievements are unparalleled in the Southeast Prefecture.

"Are the hostages alright?"

Jiang Chen asked.

"Don't worry, everything is settled, and we've also contacted his family."

“The Dragon Kingdom will send someone to pick him up in a few days.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chen nodded in relief.

The group then chatted for a while longer.

They discussed the ransom and some follow-up work for the mission before parting ways.

After this battle, Jiang Chen has finally established a firm foothold in Southeast State.

This was the first time we had clashed with three different forces.

It simply made everyone aware that such a person exists.

Only a second battle will allow everyone to know for sure.

What kind of war god has arrived in Southeastern State?

As Jiang Chen expected, within a day or two after this battle...

At least dozens of tribes, large and small, directly approached Jiang Chen, hoping to establish friendly relations with him.

Jiang Chen simply told them to go back and wait.

Let's find some time to discuss the actual situation in Southeastern State and its future development trends.

The current situation has basically stabilized.

As for those interest groups, the relationships between them are complex and intertwined.

Moreover, the extent to which it is deeply rooted in this place far exceeds imagination.

If Jiang Chen wants to completely eliminate them, it will not be an easy task that can be accomplished overnight.

Whether the goal can ultimately be achieved is still unknown.

To be honest, Jiang Chen felt that it was understandable for these interest groups to mine resources in this area.

After all, Southeast Prefecture was a place where warlords controlled the region and the situation was chaotic.

But their biggest mistake was using the cruelest methods to force the locals to work as laborers.

It has also severely damaged the living environment of the local people.

Imagine, the locals of Southeast Prefecture have lived here for generations.

However, the mineral resources here do not belong to them.

They also had to risk their lives to help these outsiders find resources.

More importantly, the treatment they received was extremely poor.

Their situation was utterly miserable compared to those who lived under the protection of warlords.

To build an orderly system of warlord relationships in the southeastern state, everything needs to start from scratch.

Jiang Chen was full of confidence in this.

During the time I spent struggling in the southeastern state,

He believed he could achieve something great.

In any case, we must strive to improve the current situation.

"Commander Jiang Chen, we have finally gained a foothold in the Southeast Prefecture." (End of Chapter)
