Super Combat Soldier

The military technology of M Nation is undoubtedly the most advanced, which explains why it could become the world’s leading superpower. When Ye Tianchen and others boarded the helicopter headed for New York, Hei Bama had already issued orders. Under no circumstances could they allow the Chinese soldiers coming to rescue Ling Shuanghe of the Ling family to return alive. What Hei Bama hadn’t anticipated was that the person leading the team this time was Ye Tianchen, who he had intensely loathed for nearly half a year. Back in Washington, Ye Tianchen stirred up a massive controversy and nearly became the first to enter the White House. This man, known as the ”Eastern Demon,”, would have caused Hei Bama not only to deploy the three major military bases in New York of M Nation, but also to muster M Nation’s hidden colossal forces to kill Ye Tianchen.

It was because Ye Tianchen had helped Liu Rumei and others reach Washington to exchange nuclear weapon data. In the end, after escorting Liu Rumei and the others to safety, Ye Tianchen stayed behind. This guy not only failed to flee but fought his way into the White House. Had Thomas not appeared, Ye Tianchen would have confronted Hei Bama face to face for a chat. No one can predict the future of the world, but until now, Ye Tianchen is arguably the only one who dared to break into the White House.

This incident brought great humiliation to Hei Bama and the soldiers of M Nation. Despite Hei Bama’s full efforts to suppress the news, forbidding anyone from disclosing even a hint of it, there is no wall that does not leak. Some of M Nation’s other high-ranking officials got wind of it, mocking Hei Bama in secret and potentially affecting his chances in the next presidential election. So, it was impossible for Hei Bama not to hate Ye Tianchen, wishing he could annihilate him. Otherwise, he would not have sent Alice to China, personally dispatching the head of M Nation’s intelligence unit to take action.

This time, to ensure that the Ling family would be retained without fail, Hei Bama had issued an order early on for the three major military bases in New York of M Nation to collaborate, to ensure the Ling family was kept. The final ultimatum was to destroy anything that couldn’t be retained, to kill Ling Shuanghe, after which handling the rest would be much easier.

In New York of M Nation, these three major military bases are Military Base No. 11, whose person in charge is General Wett; Military Base No. 12, whose person in charge is General Balock; and Military Base No. 13, whose person in charge is General Libi. These three bases stationed in New York testify to the formidable military power of M Nation. Not only are there troops deployed along the borders and throughout the country, but even in every major city of M Nation, there are secret military bases. Whether M Nation intends to invade another country, or another nation tries to meddle with M Nation, it proves very advantageous for M Nation, truly formidable and mighty. No wonder it has long stood as the world’s superior power.

What Hei Bama probably didn’t expect was that Wett, Balock, and Libi, the heads of the three major military bases, were not friends and would find it extremely difficult to cooperate. If they could avoid infighting, they were already giving due face to their president. To get them to work together and handle the affairs of the Ling family was virtually impossible.

Upon receiving Hei Bama’s orders, Wett, Balock, and Libi didn’t contact one another and instead initiated their plans separately. Balock dispatched three military fighter jets and two armored tanks to attack Ye Tianchen and his team directly, while Wett sent a powerful Superpower User from the military base to scout the situation. As for Libi’s actions, neither Wett nor Balock knew, as it was unlikely for them to find out. The word was that Libi was also a formidable Superpower User with a deep study into Western magic. Although they didn’t see eye to eye, Wett and Balock generally preferred not to provoke Libi.

Some of the top echelons in M Nation believed that Hei Bama was making a mountain out of a molehill. Even if the Ling family played an important role in the economic development of the M Nation government, there was no need to mobilize all three major military bases in New York. Many laughed at Hei Bama behind his back, thinking he was frightened by Ye Tianchen in that previous encounter. Only Hei Bama himself was very clear on why he was acting this way—to secure his own position without fail.

The Ling family is the largest Chinese overseas commercial family and the family of the chairman of the Overseas Chinese Association. They have been developing in M Nation for decades, deeply rooted for many years, with a significant impact on M Nation’s economy. Their assets, amounting to tens and hundreds of billions, are terrifyingly substantial. To the Ling family, money has long become just paper, more than enough for ten generations to spend, but for a nation, such a financial influx undoubtedly strengthens its people. Should the Ling family truly relocate back to China as Ling Shuanghe intended, taking all their funds and businesses back to China, it would deal a major blow to M Nation’s economy. Already in recession for years, facing an economic crisis, if the Ling family also withdrew their funds, M Nation would encounter an even more severe economic threat, causing heavy losses to many domestic corporate giants. The election of the M Nation president has always needed the support and votes of these domestic enterprises. If Hei Bama were to allow the Ling family to relocate back home, would these domestic enterprises still support him? Vote for him? Allow him to become the next president of M Nation?

Therefore, whether for other reasons or more importantly for himself, Hei Bama had to retain the Ling family in M Nation at all costs, continually developing their interests. To avoid any pitfalls, he directly gave orders to the three major military bases in New York—if Ling Shuanghe got rescued, then the heads of these bases would be to blame.

”So, General Wett, what should we do now? Should we make a move or...” an elderly fellow asked.

”Don’t worry, I’ve already sent some powerful people to keep watch,” Wett considered for a moment before continuing, ”It will still take some time before we make our move. At the moment, these Chinese who’ve entered New York City are still in the downtown area. Striking there would only cause civilian casualties. Though I don’t care much about that, if we did, Balock and Libi would definitely tattle on me to the president. I can’t afford to give them that kind of leverage.” Wett said.

”So, what now...?”

”Give me the phone first. I need to make a call to Balock!” Wett said with a sly grin.

All the others had left, all important figures from Military Base No. 11, led by Wett. This incident was being taken very seriously by the three major military bases. After all, if even the president of M country paid great attention to it, how could they not take it seriously?

Wett dialed a number, and as soon as it connected, he could hear yelling and cursing on the other end—it was General Balock from Military Base No. 12. This brought a thrill of pleasure to Wett’s heart. In an insincere tone laced with mockery, he said, ”Balock, on such a beautiful night, shouldn’t you find a woman to enjoy some fun with instead of cursing at people? Is it that the women over there just don’t cut it for you? Want me to send a couple over?”

”Thanks, but I’ve got no time for your nonsense. I’ve got things to do, hanging up now!” Balock responded irritably.

”Oh, are you angry? It’s so rare to see you, Balock, lose your cool. Why hang up so quickly? Let’s chat. I heard you sent out three fighter jets and two armored tanks to kill those Chinese, and all failed. That’s no small loss. I wonder how the president will deal with you?” Wett spoke in a tone feigning concern while his words dripped with sarcasm.

At that moment, on the other end of the phone, Balock, who had been very angry and agitated, calmed himself down and chose not to hang up. In a tone that was neither warm nor dismissive, he replied, ”You don’t need to worry about that, Wett. Why don’t you focus on your erectile dysfunction? Everyone says you’re a ’whirlwind in bed’, but in reality, you only last a minute. That little piece of gossip has been circulating in the military for decades. Even I’m embarrassed for you!”

”You... Balock, I didn’t call to quarrel with you. I’m informing you that the group from China isn’t as simple as you think. You won’t be able to complete this task. Let me handle it, and keep your people from Military Base No. 12 out of it.” Wett said, irritated. His erectile dysfunction was supposed to be a secret, known only to the higher-ups in the military, and now Balock was spouting it off casually, embarrassing him. As a man, to lose his manly prowess was the most humiliating thing.

”Oh? Although my men failed to kill them, it doesn’t mean I have no way of dealing with those Chinese. They might be somewhat capable, but I haven’t really made my move yet. Don’t think that only your subordinates have powerful superpower users. Don’t forget, I, Balock, have viral monsters in my possession, and they are no less formidable than your so-called superpower users,” Balock said unperturbed.

”Viral monsters? Those are a danger to us as well. Are you sure you can control them? It’s not just you who has these new breeds, but if you let them loose, should they kill those Chinese and you can’t control the monsters, it might very well lead to an uncontrollable disaster...” Wett was taken aback at the thought of those viral monsters. Even he broke out in a cold sweat at the idea. The results of those experiments were terrifying; if actually employed, the horror was unimaginable. (To be continued.
