The Bad Girl's Quick Transmigration System: Traveling Back and Forth

Chapter 600: The smoke clears, and the iron flows into the city

Lin Wei pulled the trigger without hesitation. The automatic rifle unleashed a steady, dull roar. Like the Grim Reaper's scythe, the bullets swept accurately towards Heisha. Heisha's forward body suddenly paused, and several bloody holes instantly appeared on his body. The powerful kinetic energy propelled him backward, and he slammed heavily into the broken courtyard wall, sending up a cloud of dust. The madness in his eyes quickly faded, replaced by endless emptiness and resentment. Finally, his head tilted, and he was completely dead.

The few remaining guards completely collapsed the moment they saw Heisha being killed. They threw away their weapons and collapsed to the ground, trembling all over, muttering, "Don't kill me, don't kill me..."

Lin Wei signaled her female soldiers to disarm and tie up the captives with restraints. She walked over to Heisha's body, kicked him, and confirmed his death. Then she reported into the communicator, "Falcon Squad, reporting: The target, Heisha, has been killed. The remaining enemies have all been captured. No casualties."

Sunlight filtered through the shattered rooftops, illuminating the resolute faces of the female soldiers and the once-invincible, now frozen or cowering enemies. The violence of the old era finally came to an end before the iron fist of justice in the new era. The skies of Black Wind City began to reveal the dawn of true peace.

"Falcon Squad, well done!" Li Wanjun's steady and powerful voice came from the communicator. "The main mopping-up force has arrived at the outskirts of Black Wind City and will immediately begin the city takeover operation. Falcon Squad, remain on alert and await rendezvous with the advance team."

"Falcon Squad, got it!" Lin Wei shut off her communicator and breathed a sigh of relief. Despite the clean, efficient fight, her frayed nerves hadn't truly relaxed until now. She glanced back at her teammates—Zhang Lan, Chen Jing, Li Na... Their faces, young yet resilient, their combat uniforms drenched in sweat and stained by the smoke of gunpowder, yet their eyes gleamed with a gleam of triumph and relief.

"Check your equipment, count the prisoners, rest where you are, and stay alert," Lin Wei ordered. "We are the first team to enter the core area of ​​Black Wind City. The task ahead is quite demanding."

"Yes, Captain!" The female soldiers responded in unison, carrying out the order quickly and orderly.

The courtyard where Heisha lurked, once the seat of power in Black Wind City, was now his burial place. Outside the courtyard, the faint roar of engines grew clearer and clearer, approaching like rolling spring thunder, heralding the arrival of a new era of power.

Not long after, a burst of hurried footsteps and coordinated commands echoed outside the courtyard gate. "Report! Zhao Xiaoxue, captain of the advance team of the mopping-up force, come and join us!"

Lin Wei straightened her clothes, walked to the courtyard gate, and opened the half-broken wooden door. Outside was a group of female soldiers, also wearing leather armor, but more numerous and better equipped. Leading them was a tall, shy young female officer.

"Captain Lin Wei, I've long heard of you!" Zhao Xiaoxue quickly stepped forward and extended her hand to Lin Wei, a look of sincere admiration on her face. "The name 'Falcon' is well-known among our frontline troops. You have made a tremendous contribution to our successful eradication of the Black Demon!"

Lin Wei shook her hand firmly and said calmly, "Captain Zhao, you're being polite. This is our mission. Heisha has been killed, his core guards have all been captured, and the compound has been cleared."

"Alright!" A sharp glint flashed in Zhao Xiaoxue's eyes. "Captain Lin, please have you and your team temporarily serve as my guards and guides. We need to immediately seize control of several key points in Black Wind City. The main force will arrive shortly and will fully take over the operation. Let's officially begin!"

"No problem!" Lin Wei said without hesitation, "My team members are already familiar with the terrain in this area and can cooperate with us."

"Excellent!" Zhao Xiaoxue immediately turned around and gave orders to her troops, "Team One, secure the area around the City Lord's Mansion (also known as the Black Evil Courtyard) and establish a security perimeter! Team Two, follow me and the Falcon Squad and immediately head to City Hall, the communications station, and the weapons depot! Move quickly and steadily!"

"Yes!" The soldiers answered in unison and acted quickly.

Lin Wei winked at Zhang Lan, who immediately understood. He pulled up the simple map they'd drawn during their earlier infiltration and quickly followed. Lin Wei walked side by side with Major Zhao Ming and began to describe Black Wind City's general situation. "Black Wind City isn't large, but its structure is complex. The central area radiates outward from the City Lord's Mansion. The City Hall is approximately 300 meters northeast of the Mansion. It's where the Black Demons issue orders and collect taxes, and it's one of the few relatively intact large buildings in the city. The communications station is next to the City Hall, but our previous reconnaissance revealed that the equipment there may have been damaged or controlled by Black Demons. The weapons depot is to the west of the city, close to the original city wall. It's relatively well-defended, so we need to pay close attention."

Zhao Xiaoxue nodded as she listened, occasionally marking on the electronic map she carried with her. "Understood. The communications station takes priority. Even if the equipment is damaged, we must prevent anyone from sabotaging it or stealing any remaining information. The weapons depot is of paramount importance. We must ensure it is completely secure. We cannot allow any weapons to enter the city and cause further chaos."

The group quickly traveled through the streets of Black Wind City.

This city, once shrouded in fear and violence, now seemed unusually quiet, almost deathly silent. Most of the houses lining the streets lay in ruins, their windows staring blankly out. Occasionally, a pair of eyes could be seen peeking in from behind doors or cracks in windows. Their expressions were complex: fear, curiosity, numbness, and a subtle hint of... anticipation?

Blacksha's rule was brutal. He and his men, like hungry wolves, exploited the city's inhabitants with unbridled cruelty and unscrupulous oppression. For the common people, Blacksha's fall was a release from their shackles. But faced with this sudden, well-equipped, unfamiliar army, they instinctively felt fear and uncertainty.

"Observe discipline!" Zhao Xiaoxue whispered. "Stay alert, but don't fire recklessly or disturb civilians! We're here to liberate them, not to create new panic!"

The soldiers strictly followed the orders, pointed their guns downwards, walked steadily, and scanned the surroundings vigilantly, trying to avoid direct eye contact with those prying eyes to reduce the sense of oppression.

The female soldiers of the Falcon Squad followed the advance team. Their fiery red leather armor made them stand out among the other green-armored female soldiers. They also maintained a high level of vigilance, their years of combat experience giving them a keener sense of the environment. Lin Wei noticed a flash of dark shadow in some corners. While the shadows didn't show hostility, they were clearly observing.

"Captain Zhao," Lin Wei warned in a low voice, "Black Wind City is a mixed bag. Besides the core Black Demon forces, there may be some small gangs or stragglers. We need to be careful."

"I understand." Zhao Xiaoxue's expression was serious. "So, the first step in the takeover operation is to control key points. The second step is to deploy surveillance throughout the city, conduct grid-based searches and inspections, confiscate illegal weapons, and register the permanent population. This process may be even more tedious than fighting."

As they spoke, the group had already arrived at the City Hall. The building was indeed much better than the surrounding houses. While it also had some damage, the main structure was still intact. There should have been a guard at the door, but now there was no one. Clearly, news of Heisha's death had spread, and his remaining forces had dispersed.

"Control the entrance and search each floor!" Zhao Xiaoxue ordered.

The soldiers immediately dispersed, forming a tactical formation and entering the City Lord's Mansion. Lin Wei and the Falcon Squad followed closely behind. The interior of the City Lord's Mansion was in shambles, with swords and other weapons scattered everywhere, and tables and chairs toppled over, clearly having experienced chaos. The search went smoothly, encountering no resistance. Only a few trembling civilian officials were found in several rooms. They were responsible for record-keeping and miscellaneous management during the Black Demon's reign, and they were already terrified.

"Control them all and hand them over to the follow-up political workers for processing later," Zhao Xiaoxue ordered. "Send someone to guard this place. This will serve as our temporary headquarters."

They then quickly seized control of the nearby communications station. As Lin Wei had said, the equipment inside was already aging, the lines had been sabotaged, and it was essentially paralyzed. Zhao Xiaoxue left the technicians behind to inspect and repair the equipment while she led the team toward the weapons depot west of the city.

While the City Lord's Mansion was going smoothly, the situation at the armory was more complicated. Originally a storage point for Black Wind City's military equipment, Black Evil occupied it, using it as his own "ammunition depot," deploying numerous personnel to guard it. Although Black Evil was dead, the small-time leader responsible for guarding the armory had apparently not yet received accurate information, or perhaps was hoping for a last-ditch effort.

As Lin Wei and Zhao Xiaoxue's team reached the outer perimeter of the armory, they were immediately met with sporadic arrow fire. Arrows blasted from behind the armory's heavy iron gates and surrounding bunkers. Though their accuracy wasn't great, their message was clear: a refusal to surrender.

"Hold the advance!" Zhao Xiaoxue's team immediately ordered their troops to hide. "Captain Lin, what do you think we should do? A forceful attack?"

Lin Wei quickly surveyed the terrain. The armory was a sturdy, semi-underground structure with a single main entrance and exit, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. A head-on attack would likely result in casualties.

"Captain Zhao, they may not know for sure that Heisha is dead. Perhaps we could try to persuade them to surrender first?" Lin Wei suggested. "If that doesn't work, we can consider a violent attack."

Team Zhao Xiaoxue thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, try it! Shout!"

A tall female soldier in green leather armor stepped forward, picked up a megaphone, walked to a relatively safe location, and shouted at the armory door, "Listen up, everyone inside! Your leader, Heisha, has been killed by us! Black Wind City's resistance has completely failed! Lay down your weapons and surrender now. We can guarantee your safety! Any resistance will only lead to death! I give you three minutes to consider!"

The sound of the loudspeaker echoed across the empty street, clearly reaching the armory. The shooting paused, apparently because someone had heard someone shouting, suggesting a heated debate was underway.

Three minutes seemed a long time. The armory was completely silent, with no response.

"It seems persuasion to surrender is ineffective." Team Zhao Xiaoxue's eyes turned cold. "Prepare for a strong attack! First demolition team, prepare to blow open the gate! Firepower team, suppress the enemy's firepower points!"

"Yes!" The soldiers took action immediately, and several soldiers carrying explosives began to move forward and set up the explosives.

At that moment, the iron door of the armory creaked open a crack. A trembling head popped out, and a trembling voice shouted, "Don't... don't blow up! We surrender! We surrender!"

Then, the iron gate was fully opened, and a group of ragged, skinny guards came out in a crooked line, their hands raised. Among them was a man who looked like the leader, his face pale and his eyes evasive.

"Throw out all your weapons! Put your hands on your head, go to the designated area and squat down!" Team Zhao Xiaoxue shouted sternly.

The guards did not dare to delay at all. They threw their guns, machetes and other weapons on the ground, and then walked to the open space and squatted down as ordered.

"Check the armory!" Captain Zhao Xiaoxue ordered. Several soldiers immediately entered the armory to search and inventory.

Lin Wei walked up to the little leader and looked at him coldly: "Why didn't you surrender earlier?"

The small leader trembled with fear and kowtowed quickly: "Master, spare us! We...we didn't hear clearly just now. Later...later someone said that the Black Demon Boss was really dead. Only then did we...dare to surrender! We were forced!"

Lin Wei ignored him. People like him would be judged by subsequent military judges.

Soon, a soldier who had entered the armory reported: "Reporting to the commander! A large number of weapons, including bows and arrows, swords and guns, as well as some food, were found in the armory! All personnel have been eliminated!"

"Very good!" Zhao Xiaoxue smiled with satisfaction. "Immediately send someone to closely guard the place, take inventory and make a list. No one is allowed to enter without permission!"

By controlling the two key nodes, the City Lord's Mansion and the Weapons Depot, the core of Black Wind City was already in the hands of the suppression forces. At this time, the main force of the suppression forces also poured into Black Wind City like a tide.

More and more figures in military green began to appear on the streets. Teams of female soldiers, following a pre-planned plan, quickly dispersed to various areas of the city, posting notices, setting up temporary checkpoints, maintaining order, and beginning house-to-house inspections and registrations.

A significant number of these soldiers, like the Falcon Squad, are women. They not only carry out combat missions but also participate in follow-up tasks such as pacifying the public, managing logistics, and sanitation and epidemic prevention. This clearing force, comprised primarily of motorized women, is not only a combat force but also a comprehensive force tasked with restoring order. Their very presence sends a fresh signal to a city plagued by violence and patriarchal oppression.

Lin Wei stood at the window of the temporary headquarters in the City Lord's Mansion, watching the endless stream of military vehicles and soldiers plying the streets, and the residents of Black Wind City gradually emerging from hiding, cautiously observing everything. Taking over was only the first step. There was still a long way to go before this city could truly rise from the ruins, emerge from fear, and move towards peace and development.

Zhao Xiaoxue walked over to her and handed her a bottle of water: "What are you thinking about?"

Lin Wei took the water, took a sip, and said softly, "I'm thinking about what to do next. The battle is over, but the pulse of the city needs to beat again."

Zhao Xiaoxue nodded in agreement, looking out the window, her tone firm. "Don't worry, Captain Lin. We're not here to conquer, we're here to liberate and build. The command center has already drawn up a detailed takeover and reconstruction plan. The first step is to stabilize order and ensure basic livelihoods; the second is to establish a temporary administrative structure and recruit reliable local talent; the third is to resume production and establish connections with the outside world... Step by step, Black Wind City will recover."

She paused, then turned to look at Lin Wei with a hint of anticipation in her eyes. "Captain Lin, your Falcon Squad is an elite group of female motorized soldiers. I hope you can play a greater role in the upcoming work of calming the public and maintaining order. Our identities as women may make it easier for those traumatized residents, especially the women, to accept us."

Lin Wei met his gaze and nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Captain Zhao, the Falcon Squad is on standby at all times!"

The sun rose higher and higher, dispelling the last wisps of haze from Black Wind City. This city, once shrouded in darkness, is quietly undergoing transformation as the iron tide of a new era surges in. And the motorized female soldiers, represented by Lin Wei and her Falcon Squad, will continue to play an indispensable role in this arduous yet monumental operation of taking over and rebuilding the city. With their tenacity, wisdom, and sweat, they will sow the seeds of peace and hope for this land.
