Chapter 281 Traitor to the Human Race
Li Chenglong was finalizing the day's work schedule with Wang Jie and Pei Ji when Huang Zhen from the Dawn City Intelligence Department knocked on the door. After receiving permission, Huang Zhen entered. Once inside the city lord's office, Li Chenglong asked Huang Zhen to sit down and inquired if there was anything he needed to discuss so early.
Huang Zhen took a stack of documents from his briefcase, including reports, photos, and investigation records, and placed them all on Li Chenglong's desk. Li Chenglong looked at the documents; the first title was "Investigation Report on a Small Base." Huang Zhen said seriously, "Lord, our investigation has confirmed that a small to medium-sized base near the Dawn Autonomous Region has engaged in rebellious activities that endanger the interests of the Chinese people."
It turned out that when Shangguan Jingyun came before, she passed by a small base and noticed that there might be some problems there, so she told Li Chenglong. Li Chenglong didn't hesitate and immediately asked Huang Zhen and Jiao Haitang from the Dawn City Intelligence Department to investigate the base. Unexpectedly, they completed the investigation report in less than a week.
Li Chenglong first poured Huang Zhen a glass of water, then carefully read the report himself. The report mentioned that the base had been involved in loading humans onto trucks and selling them to zombies, and there were also photographic records and detailed truck entry and exit records, which were described in great detail.
Huang Zhen said solemnly, "Lord, in the past few days of our investigation, we have discovered four trucks full of people heading south under the guise of transporting minerals. After our investigators followed them, we found that they had made a deal with a zombie army, exchanging a large amount of crystals and some materials. In this one instance alone, 200 living people were handed over to the zombies. You can imagine how many of our Chinese compatriots they have harmed."
Li Chenglong roared, "These people are true traitors to humanity! Your intelligence department did a great job. Leave the rest to me!" He immediately informed General Sun Tianlong, who was also furious upon hearing the news and approved Li Chenglong's operation. After receiving approval, Li Chenglong immediately called Yang Liu, instructing the special forces team to end their leave and assemble urgently. Dealing with such human scum required the special forces.
An hour later, Li Chenglong, dressed in combat uniform, arrived at the special forces compound, where 50 special forces members had already assembled. Li Chenglong handed the documents and photos to Yang Liu and showed her the document from the Eastern Theater Command that had approved the operation.
After the special forces members finished reading the instructions, Yang Liu said indignantly, "Captain Li, just tell us how to fight. Our special forces team will follow your orders." Li Chenglong nodded, "Okay, I only have one request. This afternoon, another truck full of people will be escorted south by an armed force. We must kill all the escorting troops, rescue the people, and then storm into that human traitor's base and wipe it out. Everyone involved in this matter must be executed, without exception."
Zheng Yong and the others had just been informed of this matter by Li Chenglong. Originally, Wu Gang, Zheng Aiguo, and Qi Guoan, the three division commanders, all volunteered for the mission, but Li Chenglong considered that it was just a small base, and the number of people going would not be too large. Moreover, this kind of operation is more suitable for a small-scale attack, especially for special forces units that are skilled in special operations.
However, he also told Yun Qian to have their logistics department make preparations, as Dawn City would be receiving residents from that small base. However, a screening process would be conducted before they could join. After all, Li Chenglong's ultimate goal was to build Dawn City into a large, peaceful, and prosperous community, and there couldn't be any bad apples.
The small base is located in Qinghe County, Xingtai City, Beihe Province, which is nearly 400 kilometers from Shuguang City. According to intelligence, their transaction location is in Kaifeng City, Nanhe Province, 440 kilometers from Shuguang City. They should be able to reach it before the transaction this afternoon.
Time was of the essence, and Li Chenglong didn't waste any words. He immediately got into an off-road vehicle and led the special forces team, divided into nine vehicles of various sizes, out of the west gate of Dawn City, speeding towards their target location. Simultaneously, an X2 spaceship slowly ascended from the Dawn City Air Force Base to assist the special forces team in their operations.
Less than half an hour into the journey, General Chen Guoqiang personally contacted them, issuing his solemn instructions. He stated that Li Chenglong and his men must resolutely strike and completely eradicate these scum of China, and that headquarters would provide full support. At the same time, Shangguan Jingyun's Black Gold City would also dispatch a unit composed of superhumans to assist Dawn City in its operations.
At 3 PM, the special forces team arrived at the designated location. According to communication from the X2-01 spaceship, the trucks loaded with civilians were still moving in this direction, but no trace of zombies had been found yet. Li Chenglong stored the vehicles in the storage area of the psionic space and arranged for the special forces members to hide on the spot, waiting for the enemy to appear.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, a convoy of eight modified vehicles of varying sizes slowly drove from the north, followed by a large truck. These were the people who had come to make the deal. A short while later, a group of zombies appeared from the south, with one level 10 zombie and two level 9 zombies leading the way.
Two men, each a level 8 ability user, jumped out of the vehicle and were talking to the zombie. Li Chenglong couldn't hear them clearly because of the distance, but they seemed to be bargaining. Yang Liu whispered to Li Chenglong, "Captain Li, should we start the operation?" Li Chenglong shook his head: "Wait a little longer. Let's catch him red-handed before we make our move."
Li Chenglong activated the Eye of the True Dragon, observed for a moment, and then closed it. His extensive scan hadn't detected any zombies or other human forces within a few kilometers, meaning they wouldn't be surrounded. Li Chenglong quickly assigned tasks to his special forces: the rescue team would handle the people in the truck; the combat team would split into two groups to fight the zombies and the human scum; and the strongest level 10 zombie would be left to Li Chenglong himself.
To prevent them from becoming desperate and harming the civilians on the truck, Li Chenglong demanded a swift resolution. Five minutes later, it seemed the zombies and militants had finally reached an agreement, and several armed men began pushing people off the truck. Li Chenglong said, "Begin the battle!" With that, a flash of red light emanated from his body, and he used spatial teleportation to appear between the militants and the zombie horde.
The special forces soldiers activated their superpowers at full speed and charged towards their target. With Li Chenglong's addition, the operation went very smoothly. In less than three minutes, the operation was over. All the zombies and armed men were killed one by one by the special forces, leaving only a man who looked like a clerk alive, because Li Chenglong still had some questions to ask.
