Chapter 1277
Such a design should have been thought of early on, so that in the event of an explosion in the ammunition depot, she would make it impossible to cause a disaster and would then, at the critical moment, annihilate it through the sea water under the ground and, at the same time, destroy the entire explosive.
Unfortunately, this was something that Lan Yuan had not thought of.
He thought of using this major military engineering route, which was arguably the most outstanding in history, opened up by this founding woman during her lifetime, as his own ammunition reserve.
But it never occurred to him that the woman founder had left behind a method of destruction while opening it up.
This, then, is the gap.
That, too, is why the famous Battle of the North Sea? Ultimately it came from the hand of Situ Jingxuan!
When Shen Yu came down from the steel rope, the ammunition in this reserve had basically all slipped into the bottom of the sea, and the huge storehouse was left in a mess.
There was also the large mouth that had been tumbling in the seawater.
“Brother, what do we do now? Do we go up there?”
Cheng Jingxiu also came down, and when he saw it, he asked.
Shen Yu nodded.
At that moment, the two of them climbed up through this ammunition depot once again.
And when they went up, they saw the tall buildings towering and the traffic not far above the ground, and both of them gulped again, a cold sweat of gratitude creeping up from their backs.
When Huo Sijiu received the call, in fact, it wasn’t much further to this place.
After he had also gotten that military map, he had deduced through his analysis that this coastal city was the most likely place for that military route to appear.
So, as soon as the call was answered and he heard the location, he came over immediately.
“What’s going on? What’s at the bottom?”
He asked with a grave expression after he had arrived in a breeze and once he saw that the big fish pond had actually all cracked open and the whole foundation had sunk, he stood on the edge.
When Shen Yu saw him, he was already sitting on the ground as if he was deflated.
As soon as he heard him ask this, he briefly told what had happened down there.
Huo Siji: “……”
After hearing this shocking scene, he was spared and stood there for a long time without speaking.
Situ Jingxuan, it was still astonishing.
He took his men down, and after a short observation, soon, while he had them continue to explore this military road ahead, on the other hand, he immediately informed the major cities along this entire road.
Since this was a stockpile of ammunition, it could not be ruled out that there would be one next.
So, the most crucial thing to do was to evacuate the ma*ses in those strongholds.
After deploying, he came up, and after seeing Shen Yu still sitting there, came over and helped him up.
“Want to go to the hospital?”
“No.”
Shen Yu shook his head and looked sideways at Cheng Jingxiu the same.
He was a little amused to find that he was grunting all the time, “This guy has received a lot of scares from following me this time, he probably needs to be taken to the hospital.”
Cheng Jingxiu heard this over there and immediately looked over in aggravation.
“Third brother, look, he’s talking about me again, how am I that fragile?”
“Well, you’re very brave.”
Huo Sijiu did not spare the youngest brother’s praise this time.
And so, a few minutes later, the three brothers left in the setting sun, propping each other up, one walking with a limp, one basically unable to move the upper half of his body, just propped raw on the shoulder of the only one who was okay.
“Are we going back tonight?”
“No. Can I? My feet hurt and my dad will beat me again if he sees me.”
“……”
There was a moment of silence and finally, the richest president, Huo Da, spoke up, “Then don’t go back, I’ll treat you to a luxury ward.”
Poof!
A mouthful of old blood.
This image, in fact, was beautiful, there was a time when the four brothers used to get together like this, eating, drinking and enjoying the pleasant days.
But now, four, it had turned into three.
The man holding them up couldn’t help but clench his fingers bit by bit, as if, in telling himself that for the rest of the word, he would never let it dwindle again!
The night was calm.
The next day.
When Huo Sijiu woke up, he left early, his arrangement for the day was to destroy the entire ammunition stockpile in the military stronghold.
Shen Yu stayed in the hospital for the time being to recuperate because his lumbar spine had been injured.
Only Cheng Jingxiu, because after this incident ended up getting out, Cheng’s father heard about it and was so angry and furious that he came over to pick him up that day.
“Shen Yu, I know you two have been close since you were kids, but Jing Xiu he is still young, I don’t want him to get involved in some of your struggles, do you understand what I mean?”
Father Cheng made it very clear to Shen Yu as he came over.
This man, in fact, had always been like this, he was considered a military cadre son back then, and it was in the military compound that Cheng Jingxiu had grown up with Shen Yu.
But when he got older, this Cheng’s father wanted to separate himself from this circle more and more, he moved out of the military compound and chose to do business, and after so many years, he was rarely seen dealing with military and political personnel.
So, at this time he would speak to Shen Yu with such an attitude, which Shen Yu understood.
So in the end, Cheng Jingxiu was taken away like that.
This was supposed to be a small episode.
However, to his surprise, on this day, Huo Sijiu, who was destroying an ammunition depot at a major military road, suddenly received a phone call.
Chapter 1278
“Hello?”
“Sir Huo, how many have you destroyed?”
The grim old man’s voice came from the phone, causing Huo Siji, who was about to press the ground mechanism, to stop abruptly.
“Lan Yuan?”
He was instantly filled with a cold and stern look, and a thick layer of killing intent rose up on his body.
But Lan Yuan laughed over the phone.
“Yes, it’s me, you haven’t returned to my question, how many have you destroyed?”
“What do you say?”
“Situ Jingxuan has set up ten strongholds in this thousands kilometres long main road, since you destroyed the first one, counting the time, you should be getting the third one now.”
The old man asked blandly over the phone as if he was having an ordinary chat.
Huo Sijiu sneered: “You are wrong, all of them have been destroyed, there is only this one left in my hands, Lan Yuan, did you forget how to deal with me? I’ll come one by one for something like this? Of course I would find ten to get ten.”
“You-”
Finally, over the phone, this old viper’s voice changed.
He was furious, that instant grinding of teeth and hatred, as if he wanted to come over and break Huo Sijiu into pieces immediately.
The old viper’s voice changed.
After Huo Sijiu took the phone down and deliberately tapped on the speakerphone, the mechanism he was pressing in his hand just twisted down.
“Pop!”
All of a sudden, all that could be heard on this phone was a loud sound of the ground being opened followed by the sound of waves, and the neatly arranged ammunition boxes, like rubbish, all fell down.
“Huo Siji, you will regret this!!!”
A furious roar came over the phone.
Huo Sijiu didn’t even listen to it, he pressed the phone away and then he lit the special lighter in his hand with a snap and threw it into the violently churning seawater below.
The sea water could indeed disable the explosives.
However, in order to destroy them completely, it was necessary to disintegrate their components so that they could harm humans, and this lighter in his hand was specifically designed for this purpose.
But at that very moment, his mobile phone rang again.
He heard it and impatiently answered it again.
“Hello?”
“Ah…”
A scream snapped right out of his phone.
Huo Sijiu gave a startled cry, and when he put the phone down, he actually caught a glimpse of the image on it.
“Don’t, don’t kill my dad, don’t!”
It was none other than Cheng Jingxiu, who had been taken away by Cheng’s father only a short while ago.
At this moment, both of them, father and son, were in a warehouse, Cheng Jingxiu was tied up, while his father, however, was already dying on the ground.
“Huo Sijiu, did you see that? This is the result of your disobedience!”
A voice fell, and the old beast in that video had personally taken a hammer and smashed it down towards the top of the man’s head on the ground.
In a flash, blood and flesh splattered, the tied up Cheng Jingxiu tore his heart out even more, screaming at the top of his lungs, his desperation and pain could be felt through the screen.
Huo Sijiu finally hissed, “Lan Yuan you old beast, you let him go!”
Lan Yuan: “Of course I will let him go, but, Huo Sijiu, you didn’t give me a chance, wasn’t I just asking you? How many things have you destroyed for me? But, you said, it’s all ruined.”
After saying that, this heartless old beast actually started walking towards the young man who was crying in pain on the ground again, carrying that hammer step by step.
Huo Sijiu’s entire body was about to explode.
He stared at the image with a deadly stare, and for the first time, he, who had never given in to this old brute before, gave in.
“No, I lied about all of it, and about the lack of destruction, I’ll give it back to you if you let him go.”
“Really?”
This old beast, at last, stopped.
Huo Sijiu’s bloodless hand then grasped the military drawing in his hand and showed it to him with a slight tremor.
“Yes, look at this drawing, you have four more, they are at the bottom of the sea, that is close to the North Sea there, I haven’t figured out how we will escape after the destruction, so I haven’t moved yet.”
“……”
There was silence for a few seconds as this old thing staring over at the phone looked at it for a while before finally, he didn’t move again.
“You’re right, back then, that’s indeed how Situ Jingxuan was set up, so that’s why she died there too.”
“What do you mean? She died there?”
“Yeah, because I really disliked her that to design, to make a military channel at the bottom of the sea, what if it collapsed? Then everyone would have drowned in it.”
“So I got into an argument with her, but she insisted she was right, and I ended up experimenting on her to verify my method, and do you know how surprised she was when she died in her own secret tunnel?”
This old beast, actually at this time, even exploded such a shocking secret!
It turned out that Situ Jingxuan had actually been killed by him in this way.
Such a great woman, a military genius who had made so many contributions to this country, in the end, would actually die in this place because of this brute’s jealousy.
Huo Sijiu’s entire pair of eyes turned blood red.
