The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord

On the other side, Advisor Park, who was busy working in the study, shook his aching neck and called out habitually, "Secretary Yin, come in!"

Click...

The door opened, and the person who came in was the guard at the door.

"Sir, Secretary Yin went out two hours ago and hasn't come back yet."

"Go out?" Military Advisor Park frowned slightly, thinking carefully about today's work arrangements, and asked with some doubt: "Did he say what to do?"

"No, Secretary Yin left in a hurry with a few people. They looked very anxious." How did the guard respond?

"Okay, I understand." Military Advisor Park nodded. After the guards left, he felt something was wrong, so he picked up the phone on the table and waited for a moment.

"This is the Quancheng Command Center. What instructions does the military advisor have?" The voice of the person on duty at the command center came over the phone.

Advisor Park checked the time and asked, "Is Secretary Yin here? Let him answer the phone."

"Military Advisor, Secretary Yin is not here. More than an hour ago, he took the young prince away and said he was returning home." The person on duty responded.

"What!?" Upon hearing this, Military Advisor Park felt his mind buzz and completely exploded. He hurriedly asked, "Did he say anything? When exactly did he take the person away?"

"No one said anything, just said it was your order, and we didn't dare to stop you." The person on duty said helplessly, "The specific time is about an hour."

"Search! Mobilize everyone immediately and search for the whereabouts of Secretary Yin and the young prince!" Without any hesitation, Military Advisor Park immediately ordered a city-wide search.

Taking someone away without his order is a serious crime.

Moreover, that guy was acting in his own name, but it had been more than an hour and he still hadn't been brought back. This was enough to prove that there was something wrong with Secretary Yin and he might have betrayed him.

This result is like a bolt from the blue for him now.

"Ah? Yes, are you going to arrest Secretary Yin?" The staff on duty didn't react for a moment and asked blankly.

They knew how high Secretary Yin's status was. If they took action without asking clearly, the consequences would be something that most people could not afford.

"That's right, it's Secretary Yin and the young prince. Send everyone to act immediately and search the entire place. They can't get far!" Military Advisor Park said in a serious tone, leaving no room for doubt.

"Yes!" After confirming the mission, the officer on duty immediately gave an order to the signalman on the other side: "Gather the guards and immediately set out to search the entire city for Secretary Yin and the young prince!"

……

On the other side, in the north of Quancheng, outside the Inoue Regiment’s headquarters.

Since Jin Zaishan was arrested, the security area here has been expanded again. Inoue Sanye has issued four consecutive orders, requiring patrol personnel to guard the area strictly and not give the rebels any chance to rescue them.

At this time, it was late at night, and the cold wind blew straight towards the camp along the ridge line not far away, causing the patrolling soldiers to unconsciously shrink their necks.

In the small ravine in front of the camp, a row of figures lay in the ditch under the cover of night, quietly observing each other's situation.

They arrived at the designated location before dark, but never found a suitable opportunity to move forward.

At this moment, the cold wind was getting stronger and stronger, freezing everyone's hands and feet numb and making them miserable.

"Captain, if we wait any longer, it will only get more difficult." A scout in the crowd, lying in front of the battalion commander, muttered quietly, "Based on the current situation, Jin Zaishan is definitely under extremely strict security. A large force has no chance of getting in, and charging headfirst is completely hopeless."

"Also, in the second half of the night, the number of people coming and going decreases, so it will definitely be more difficult to find a chance to get in."

"I fucking know this, but with no one coming in or out right now, we have no chance even if we disguise ourselves," the battalion commander exhaled coldly, feeling a headache as he said, "There are only so many people in the camp. If the numbers don't match, we'll be exposed immediately."

"How about trying another direction?" The scout handed the telescope to the battalion commander beside him and pointed to the lighted stable on the northwest side. He suggested, "We can disguise ourselves as fleeing Silla people. Maybe we can sneak in."

"Fuck, you're really audacious." The battalion commander glanced through the telescope, his face solemn and somewhat worried, and said, "What if these bastards don't follow martial ethics and just open fire? We're all doomed."

"Let's say you didn't shoot, but were taken back and beaten half to death, would you still be able to carry out the mission?"

"Isn't this just a gamble of luck? Otherwise, what else can we do?" The scout smiled awkwardly.

At this point in time, time is tight and the task is heavy. If you can't get into it, everything you say is useless. But his idea is really ridiculous. Not only is the failure rate high, but the mortality rate is also very high. It's completely useless.

"Hey, hey, hey, there's a chance, there's a chance!" Just as a few people were quietly discussing the plan, the deputy battalion commander, who was observing the enemy situation, suddenly pointed to the convoy with lights on behind him and warned, "There's a car coming. I think it's the enemy's supply truck. It was delayed on the road and arrived after dark."

"Come on, come on, some people, follow me!" The battalion commander reacted quickly, immediately handing command to the deputy battalion commander and hurriedly instructed, "I'll lead the men in and wait for the signal flare to pick us up."

As he spoke, he turned back again and said, "Send us some people who can speak the enemy's language, so we don't get caught."

While arranging many matters, he had already started changing into the enemy's clothes.

Before long, a patrol team that was temporarily organized ran quickly down the ravine.

Twenty minutes later, a patrol line blocked the convoy's way on the narrow mountain road.

When the escort team saw the military uniform on the other party, they immediately signaled the driver to stop the car.

Rumble…

The four military vehicles slowly slowed down and stopped right in front of the battalion commander and his men.

"What are you pulling and where did it come from?" The battalion commander asked first in fluent Sakura dialect, not giving the other party a chance to ask for ID.

"The supplies sent by logistics are just some meat, dried vegetables, and the like." The escort officer got out of the car, took out his ID, and rubbed his hands vigorously. "This weather is really cold. Why is it so strict today? The patrol line has been extended two kilometers outside the camp."

"There's a special situation. The higher-ups have ordered us to strengthen our defenses, so I'll have to trouble you, brothers." The battalion commander pretended to glance at the documents, then took his men to the front of the car, walked around it twice, and lifted the tarpaulin to check it.

Two minutes later, the necessary procedures were completed. The battalion commander returned the certificate to the other party and said with a smile: "Brother, give me a ride. This damn place is too cold. I'm going to put on more clothes when I get home."

"Okay, but can you... leave here?" the escort officer pointed at his men and asked.

"It's okay, we are all family. No one will notice if we leave for a while." The battalion commander handed him a cigarette in a very familiar manner, then opened the car door and sat in.
