C40 Rectification

In the latter half of the night, scattered gunshots rang throughout the military. The sounds of gunshots could be heard as quickly as they had come. On the surface, the entire military was still as calm as ever.

Inside the steel building, Elder Soong stood by the window looking at the quiet military building in the middle of the night.

"Knock knock knock!" Someone knocked on the door.

"Please come in!"

The office door opened and Xu Han walked in. "Reporting to the commander in chief, our people have started to move. We expect to have complete control of the military in two hours."

Elder Soong sat on the chair and said, "Alright, I understand. Thank you for your hard work. Go back to work."

Xu Han didn't leave immediately. He suddenly asked, "Commander, what are your confidence levels for tonight's operation?"

Elder Soong retracted his gaze and looked at Xu Han. After a long while, he said, "100%."

"Commander, are you that sure?" Xu Han couldn't help but ask with a frown on his face.

Elder Soong looked at Xu Han, who was holding the Laser Gun in his hand, and said calmly, "One hundred percent."

Whether or not Xu Han was pointing a gun at him, he would say 100%. If it was before Xiang Jing came, he would at most say 70%. But now that Xiang Jing was here, even if he died here today, he could guarantee it.

Xu Han took a deep breath and said, "Commander, I truly admire you from the bottom of my heart. If it were an era of peace, I would be willing to sacrifice my life for you. But this time is different. I can only let you down today."

Elder Soong looked at him indifferently and said, "Hu Jingyi asked you to come, right?"

Xu Han did not answer Elder Soong's question. Instead, he placed his finger on the trigger and prepared to shoot.

At such a close distance in such a narrow space, Elder Soong had nowhere to hide.

"Peng!"

Suddenly, a muffled sound rang out in the office. It was so abrupt in this silent night.

Xu Han, who was aiming his gun at Elder Soong, now had half of his body smashed and fractured. A slender iron hand was pinching his throat.

Lee Qiang had one hand on Xu Han's throat as he stared at him coldly and said, "In my life, the thing that I hate the most is a traitor."

Under Xu Han's frightened gaze, he broke his neck.

Since he had decided to take this step, he had to be prepared to be killed. He would either kill people or be killed. The stronger ones would live, and the weaker ones would die.

Elder Soong was already prepared. He didn't expect Lee Qiang to appear and instantly kill Xu Han.

Elder Soong stood up and asked, "Little brother, why are you here?" "Where's Xiang Jing?"

He remembered that the plan he told Xiang Jing was not like this, why would Lee Qiang appear here now?

Lee Qiang turned around and said, "Brother Xiang was worried that someone would continue to assassinate Elder Soong, so he specially sent me to protect you. Fortunately, we arrived in time."

After getting off the car, Lee Qiang hid under the car and followed them back to the Military Department. However, the security here was too tight.

Lee Qiang then took out something that looked like a small ball and said, "Elder Soong, this is what Brother Xiang asked me to hand to you. It can protect your safety."

Lee Qiang placed the round ball on Elder Soong's chest. Immediately after, a set of dark blue armor emerged and wrapped around Elder Soong's body, before disappearing without a trace.

This was the dark blue armor that Xiang Jing had bought. He was worried that Elder Soong would be assassinated, so he asked Lee Qiang to protect him and hand it over to him.

"Good!" Good! "Alright!"

Elder Soong said three good words in a row. Not to mention others, Xiang Jing was not only important to the country, but also to him.

Lee Qiang then stood guard at the gate and said, "Don't worry Elder Soong. With me here, no one is to get close to you. Brother Xiang told me to bring you a message and wait for the good news at 1 in the morning."

Elder Soong nodded heavily and sat behind his desk. It was already 12: 30 AM, there was still half an hour before one in the morning.

Xiang Jing, who was far away in the yard, was leaning against a tree in the yard and lighting up a cigarette.

On the other side, dozens of people were tied up and thrown on the ground in a ball. The only thing they had in common was that they had all been beaten up like pigs, including the soldiers on duty in the guardhouse.

Xiang Jing squatted in front of a middle-aged man in his fifties, blew out a mouthful of smoke towards his face and said, "I myself hate trouble. I won't push you guys too much if I can do it."

"I'll give you ten seconds to think about it," Xiang Jing said, "Hand over the military power in your hands and let you live."

"Hmph!" The middle-aged man coldly snorted, "Do you think we are blind? Let me tell you, coercion is not good for us."

"Oh, you're a tough nut to crack." Xiang Jing pulled him out with a smile. Under his frightened gaze, he raised the Crimson Star Hammer and let go.

"Crack!"

After a crisp sound, the middle-aged man's right leg was smashed into a pulp. The wound was badly mutilated, and blood sprayed all over the ground.

"Ah!

A heart-wrenching howl resounded through the courtyard.

When the others saw this, they felt a chill in their hearts and could not help but shrink back.

The young man in front of them was simply too terrifying. He was no different from an executioner who kills people without blinking an eye. No, he was even more terrifying than them.

Xiang Jing looked at them without any change in his expression. The Red Star Hammer was originally not a normal weapon, and its weight alone was comparable to a car. It was not something that these rich and rich patients, who have lived like princes for years, could bear.

"Three seconds left, three, two!"

Just when Xiang Jing was about to shout, a military personnel carrier rushed into the military compound with two huge searchlights heading straight for Xiang Jing.

"Hahahaha!"

The middle-aged man who was wailing on the ground resisted the pain and laughed, "Brat, my people are here. Today is the day you die!"

"Oh?" Xiang Jing glanced at him and said, "Have you ever experienced true despair?"

Under the middle-aged man's twisted face due to the anger and excitement from the pain, Xiang Jing rushed towards the troop transport vehicle with the hammer in his hand.

The moment the truck charged in, it locked onto Xiang Jing. After all, he was the only one standing here.

The fire from the gun instantly raged and gushed out. One after another, laser beams shot straight at Xiang Jing. It looked like he was about to be turned into a sieve.

However, a scene that no one expected happened. When the Laser Gun shot into Xiang Jing's body, it stopped there and the scene of a hole being shot did not appear. No matter from what angle they attacked from, they were unable to cause any damage to Xiang Jing.

Under their shocked gazes, Xiang Jing had already arrived in front of the car with the hammer in hand.

The car instantly exploded, sending sparks flying everywhere. The powerful shockwave sent the surrounding people flying, and all the soldiers who had yet to get off the car turned into charcoal.

Ten seconds later, the battle was over. Under the middle-aged man's dazed gaze, Xiang Jing stood in front of him and threw down a walkie-talkie. This was found on the corpse over there.

"Say something!"

Xiang Jing lit a cigarette for him and stuffed it into his numb mouth. Then he stood on the side with the hammer in his hand and blew out smoke slowly.

The middle-aged man's mouth was trembling as he looked at the walkie-talkie. He took a deep drag from the cigarette in his mouth and coughed.

Finally, he said in a hoarse voice, "I am Hu Jin Yi. Order all troops to give up resisting."

These short words seemed to have used up all the remaining strength in his body. He collapsed to the ground and looked lifelessly at the dark sky.

He originally thought that with his influence in the military and his relationship with various forces, he would be able to stand on equal footing with Song Hongzheng.

He didn't expect that just the arrival of this young man would completely change the situation and disrupt the balance.

Hu Changyi now understood why Song Hong had sent this young man here. It was not to suppress his opponents, but to use a thunderous method to reorganize the entire military.

It was laughable that Hu Changzai was still deceiving himself as well. He was thinking of a way to deal with this move, and how to make use of his own energy.

They didn't know that these were all ridiculous in front of absolute strength.

Aside from Song Hongzheng, he was the largest in the military. Even if he fell tonight, the other large and small forces would not be able to escape and would be completely wiped out.

Of course, this didn't need to be done by Xiang Jing. His main objective was to deal with Hu Jingyi, the head of the army. After getting rid of him, basically, the control of the military fell into Elder Soong's hands.

Elder Soong was ruthless and showed no mercy. Tonight, the military was destined to donate blood to determine the real leader.

It was 1 o'clock in the morning, and the last few scattered gunshots also stopped. The troop transport truck escorted the man whose head had been beaten into a pig by Xiang Jing into prison. Because of his heavy injuries, Hu Jingyi was sent to the military hospital.

Now that their momentum had been completely lost, no matter how strong they were, they wouldn't be able to create any big waves.

Furthermore, looking at Hu Jinyi's sluggish expression, it was likely that there would be some mental problems after the treatment.

Naturally, there would be someone specialized to deal with these things. Xiang Jing put away the Crimson Star Hammer, covered his mouth and yawned as he went back to his room, then fell asleep immediately.

The next morning, Xiang Jing rubbed his sleepy eyes as he got out of bed. After washing his face and eating breakfast, he ran around the courtyard twice.

Yesterday, there were still many people here, but today, he was the only one left.

Not long after, the military jeep arrived, carrying Xiang Jing towards the steel building.

Outside the office, Lee Qiang stood motionlessly at the door. There were a lot of blood stains outside that he had not cleaned up in time. It seemed that it wasn't peaceful last night either.

Within the office, he could faintly hear the sounds of quarrelling.

"Brother Xiang" saw Xiang Jing coming, Lee Qiang finally felt relieved. Last night, at least five waves of dead servants came to this place and hundreds of guards outside or downstairs had died.

Although it was not a threat to him, but such a big battle was something he had never seen before in his life.

Xiang Jing patted his shoulder and asked, "What's the situation inside?"

"It seems to be the two principals of Research Institute. Those who are noisy since early in the morning wanted to see Elder Soong, but I held them back and finally Elder Soong let them in."

An unnatural look flashed across Lee Qiang's face, it was obvious that he had been repulsed a lot.

Xiang Jing nodded and said, "You worked hard last night. Go back and rest. Leave this place to me."
