Resurrection Empire

Chapter 642 - 241 Day One, Stick to the Plan_3

On the other end, Zheng Tian was persuading Ren Zhong, "Brother Ren, you’re seriously injured, please go to the town hospital first."

Ren Zhong shook his head, "Don’t worry about me, go back to your command post. The second wave of attacks will arrive shortly, and the Legion Beast will send a cannon fodder team to deplete our minefield. The long-range shooters must replace their weapons and adjust their formation on time. The other Professionals who have just gotten up must also be at their posts promptly. Alright, Zheng Tian, you are now the Commander of this battle, don’t get distracted by my personal matters."

"Remember, from now on, every one of your decisions concerns the lives of thousands. I know this will put a lot of pressure on you, but Zheng Tian, I believe you can do it. Go ahead. As for the rest of you, head to the town hospital for preliminary treatment. Then go to my Armored Laboratory to swap out your equipment. Those still combat-ready, return to the front line immediately."

After speaking, Ren Zhong jumped off the heavy truck with difficulty and quickly headed to the Starfire Resources office.

Along the way, he stumbled slightly but quickly steadied himself.

More than ten minutes later, Ren Zhong changed clothes and asked Hanyu to "touch up his makeup" to cover the pallor on his face.

He met with Xiao Xingyue in his own office.

This place was far from the wall, almost no sounds of battle could be heard, except for explosions occasionally coming from afar.

Xiao Xingyue first adjusted the camera equipment, then said, "General Ren, first let me congratulate you on winning the first contact between the two sides."

Ren Zhong waved his hand with a smile, "A victory as expected need not be congratulated. This is just the beginning, the one who laughs last is the real winner."

"By the way, I initially thought you would refuse my interview, but I didn’t expect you to agree. Aren’t you going to command the battle?"

Ren Zhong then said, "Although I’m also quite good at battlefield command, I am, after all, a Fourth Level Citizen. This is an experiment by the Mengdu Group on the wastelands, and if a genius commander like me were to participate, it would be unfair to Mengdu Group. So, I let others handle it. Mm, I’m giving them a bit of leeway."

"General Ren seems very confident, doesn’t he?"

"Of course, I know my own employees. If I didn’t trust their abilities, why else would I risk offending the Mengdu Group to firmly protect Starfire Town, right?"

"Indeed, we are quite surprised. We never expected that the wasteland people would have such potential."

Ren Zhong shook his head, "Let me correct you. It’s not that all wasteland people have this potential, it’s my employees who do. Here, their status as employees is more important than their status as wasteland people."

"I see. By the way, I seemed to notice you personally executing a lure-the-enemy tactic?"

Ren Zhong laughed heartily, "I originally planned to return today, and just happened to do that along the way. The intelligence of the Legion Beast is still quite low, only capable of basic logical judgment. I played a small trick, and it foolishly followed along, so easy to outsmart."

"But from the intelligence I received from the Mengdu Group, it seems you were injured?"

Ren Zhong pointed at his own rosy complexion, "Do I look like I’ve been injured? I said before, these low-intelligence so-called commanders can’t escape my schemes. I was just feigning injury. I’m a noble Fourth Level Citizen, how could I get hurt for the sake of subordinates? You’re underestimating me, hahaha! Besides, I’m puzzled about one thing. Why would the Mengdu Group develop such low-efficiency technology? Are they in a hurry to send crystal chips to the enemy like pigs? Hahaha!"

"General Ren, you’re joking. This is one of the major projects of the Mengdu Group."

"Whether a project is major or not, it depends on its effectiveness rather than the size of the investment. From what I see now, its effect is quite mediocre, merely wasting resources. I can’t understand why the stock price of the Mengdu Group would rise because of such news."

Xiao Xingyue then asked, "I’ve heard you have an outstanding stock trading skill, does this mean you’re bearish on Mengdu Group’s stock price?"

Ren Zhong nodded decisively, "The vision of a corporate leader can determine the height of the company. In my opinion, Mengdu Group, as a giant controlling all the medical resources of Source Star, has a vision that surprisingly small. Of course, this may not be the opinion of the upper echelon of Mengdu, but rather troublesome little demons causing problems. I am optimistic about Mengdu Group in the long term but hold reservations in the short term."

"Understood. Well then, General Ren, I won’t disturb you further. I need to continue live broadcasting the battle situation at the front line."
