In a chaotic world of infrastructure development, a woman's path to survival after being reborn

The leader's voice rang out, and Wang Zong, who had already turned around, flashed a hint of mockery in his eyes. He then turned back and said, "What's wrong? Didn't you not believe me before? Why do you believe me now?"

The leader's face turned ugly for a moment after being mocked like this, but he quickly recovered and said ingratiatingly, "We were blind and didn't recognize you, sirs. It was our fault."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zong became even more arrogant, saying, "Good that you know. Remember to keep your eyes open and recognize people carefully in the future, otherwise others won't be as easy to talk to as we are!"

"Yes, it's our fault, we'll correct it right away, we'll correct it right away!" the leader said, barely suppressing his anger as he admitted his mistake.

"Alright, you can go now. We'll take care of things here. You should head back quickly. Maybe you can go help put out the fire if you're alright. Apparently, some miners caused a disturbance in the mine and set it on fire..." Wang Zong said casually.

Upon hearing this, the leader immediately nodded and said, "Then I'll take some men to take a look. I'll leave this to you, sir."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zong nodded reservedly, and then had the soldiers behind him take the place of the officers and soldiers around the warehouse.

The officers and soldiers who had been worried that the fire would spread to the warehouse area immediately left without lingering when they saw someone coming to take their place.

The smell of smoke and fire grew stronger and stronger. The leader was now certain that there was a fire. Seeing his men come out, he immediately told them to follow and prepare to put out the fire.

Watching the group disappear into the distance, Wang Zong nodded to Zhao Zexuan and the others who were hiding in the shadows. Immediately, a squad of soldiers emerged from the shadows and followed them.

Now that all the officers and soldiers around the warehouse had been transferred away, only his own men remained, so Zhao Zexuan led his men into the warehouse immediately.

The warehouse key was already in hand, so we used it to open the warehouse door directly. Pushing the door open, we could see the neatly stacked gunpowder.

"We don't have much time. Before those people react, let's quickly move our things out of here and leave," Zhao Zexuan said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, the other soldiers immediately and nimbly began loading the gunpowder, bit by bit, onto the cart outside.

Zhao Zexuan needed to supervise the soldiers carrying gunpowder, so he said to Wang Zong beside him, "While you're at it, take some men to meet up with the team. Lead the team directly along the small path to the north, where our men are guarding the area!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zong nodded in agreement, but then hesitated and asked, "General, what about you?"

"Once we're done here, we'll bring the gunpowder and meet up with you. Don't worry about us. Just keep moving forward and don't stop," Zhao Zexuan instructed.

Upon hearing this, Wang Zong immediately nodded in agreement and led his soldiers toward the village entrance.

Outside, there was a bustling noise, almost as if the place was about to explode. The noise was getting louder and louder. Zhao Zexuan stood at the warehouse door, silently looking at the distant firelight, and remained silent for a long time.

The noise in Majia Village was so loud that Su Li and the others, who were observing from the shadows, naturally noticed it. Looking at the firelight not far away, everyone in the group knew that the operation had begun!

Fearing that the conflict inside might spread to the outside, Su Li said to the people in the group, "Everyone, be quiet and don't make any noise so that we don't get discovered."

The shouts inside grew louder and louder, indicating the chaos within. Everyone in the group knew the priorities and nodded in unison to show that they understood.

Hiding in the shadows makes it easier to observe. Su Li and the others watched wave after wave of soldiers rushing up the mountain and knew how serious the situation was. They didn't know how the people inside were doing or how far things had progressed.

Looking at the increasingly intense flames, Su Li and the others felt a little heavy-hearted. Just as they were about to observe further, a commotion came from ahead.

Noticing someone approaching the group, Mo Bei immediately went on alert. He told Su Li and the villagers to hide and see who it was.

No one expected someone to arrive at this time, so everyone in the group was very nervous, including Su Li.

As the footsteps drew closer, everyone's hearts were in their throats. Mo Bei and his soldiers were hiding in the shadows, swords in hand, ready to strike as soon as the men appeared.

"It's me, one of our own." Just as everyone was tense, a familiar voice rang out.

Others might not be able to tell, but Mo Bei, who worked with him, certainly could. For example, at this moment, Mo Bei tentatively asked, "General Wang Zong?"

“It’s me. I’ve brought people to meet you,” Wang Zong said.

Hearing this, Mo Bei felt a little relieved. He turned around and left the shadows, where he saw Wang Zong standing in front of him with his soldiers.

Once he confirmed that they were all on his side, Mo Bei felt relieved and then said to the people hiding behind him, "Don't worry, it's General Wang Zong, they're on our side!"

After speaking with Su Li and the others, Mo Bei stepped forward and asked curiously, "General Wang Zong, what brings you here? Where is the general? Where are they now?"

Wang Zong glanced at the troops behind him and, seeing that everyone was safe and sound, said, "The general sent me back to meet you. He told us to go ahead first, and he will catch up with us with his soldiers later."

Hearing this, Mo Bei asked worriedly, "How are the general and the others now?"

Knowing that everyone was worried about the situation inside, Wang Zong reassured them, "Don't worry, everything inside is under our control, and things are progressing smoothly. Let's leave now."

Upon hearing this, Mo Bei realized the urgency of the situation and quickly said, "Alright, let's leave right away."

Su Li had overheard Mo Bei and Wang Zong's conversation, and she immediately said to the group, "Everyone, hurry up and pack your things, we need to leave here quickly."

Screams could be heard coming from inside every now and then, and everyone was already in a panic. But when they heard that the operation was going smoothly, they all breathed a sigh of relief and didn't delay any longer. They quickly packed their things, ready to leave at any time.

Because they were afraid of being discovered, the torches in the group had been extinguished when they arrived. Now, Mo Bei asked, "Do we need to hide our whereabouts anymore? Can we light the torches?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zong immediately said, "No need. We need to leave here as soon as possible. The torches can provide light, so we don't need to worry about whether they will affect our movements."

Upon hearing this, Mo Bei hurriedly ordered torches to be lit and led his team to quickly leave behind Wang Zong and the others.

The trail of torches was indeed very bright, but the people inside were not paying attention to the situation outside. They were only concerned with extinguishing the "fire" that had been inexplicably lit.
