It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 829 Action!

The staff member just fidgeted his fingers around as he couldn't come up with an answer. He just came to find the commanding officer the moment he had received Xu Shiming's request. Just as he was about to mentally breakdown from the silence, the adjutant of the commanding officer rushed in with his forehead full of sweat. "Senior colonel, the scouts team, Ai'er Mecha Clan, 291-2 battle team… and 250 Ace Mecha Clan are rushing to the mecha hold."

"It's really them." Du Mingyi felt that this must be Ling Lan's plan to threaten his position again. If he showed any signs of weakness and agreed to open the mecha hold for Xu Shiming, his vice grip over the base would loosen.

He thought for a while and asked cautiously, "Have the mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan arrived at the mecha hold?"

"Yes." The adjutant answered firmly. "Our men below have reported that there are 200 mecha operators from 250. It is the same number of mecha operators written in their report."

"That's good! Hmph, they want to threaten me… they have gotten too confident. So what if I open the mecha hold? I will let them understand that no matter how capable they are, without my command, they can't do anything in this base." Du Mingyi's gaze turned sharp. He told the staff, "Open the mecha hold. As for our logisticians… ask them to take their time."

The staff member was shocked by how cruel his commanding officer was behaving, but he wasn't in a position to argue back so he just quietly left.

Soon, the mecha hold opened, allowing all the members of the scouts team to enter into their mechas, just as they were about to move out, they were suddenly notified that the logisticians were still preparing themselves so they couldn't allow them to launch. The logisticians were apparently not in positioned yet so they had to wait.

As they waited, the other teams, including 250 Ace Mecha Clan, had arrived.

By now, the scouts team knew that their commanding officer did this on purpose to make things difficult for them.

"Leader, Du Mingyi is trying to make things difficult for us," one of the members of the scouts team said angrily. There should always be JMCs and logisticians who were on duty in the base. Yet, none of them came to help them. This was obviously done on purpose.

"I know," Xu Shiming replied with suppressed anger in his voice. He didn't mind if Du Mingyi wanted to mess with him. Ever since he had accepted Ling Lan's invitation, he was prepared for this, but he couldn't tolerate that Du Mingyi chose this moment to take his revenge. 'Does he even know the possible consequences of his actions? Is he planning to have everyone in the base pay for his stupidity?'

"Old Xu, what do we do now?" Yang Zhenyong knew that Hailiya had already started their attack so they couldn't afford to wait any longer. They must launch now to understand which path their enemy was taking so they could make the necessary arrangements against them.

"What do we do?" Xu Shiming's gaze turned cold. He quickly sent Ling Lan a message and told him what situation he was in.

'Since Ling Lan wants to control the entire base, now is the perfect time for him to show me what he has up his sleeve. If he can't even settle such a small matter, I will have to reconsider working with him.' Xu Shiming thought.

Ling Lan, who was sitting in her office calmly, smiled when she received Xu Shiming's message. She looked at Lin Zhong-qing and said calmly, "Your logisticians can move now."

Lin Zhong-qing nodded and called Han Xuya immediately. "Han Xuya, time to move."

"Yes!" Han Xuya replied excitedly. This time, she was no longer a side character. It was finally time for her to do something great.

Lin Zhong-qing left with his men after calling Han Xuya. Each of them had their own mission. If they wanted to control the entire base, they had to take over the controls of the important logistic departments in the base first. If not, their plan would never work.

Ling Lan looked at the other side and saw Luo Chao, who was wearing her first lieutenant uniform, smiling shyly at her. Ling Lan's eyes twitched when she saw such a demure smile. "You can move too."

Luo Chao saluted beautifully and gave a bright smile. "I understand, Boss!"

Soon, she left with her team too.

At last, Ling Lan turned and looked at the only person left in her office, the person was Li Shiyu who was wearing a white gown with a complementary surgical mask donning over his face. "I'll leave the command center of the base to you."

Li Shiyu smiled, his eyes seemed to be glistening like the stars in a dark night. His entire aura seemed to also turn vibrant. "Yes! I will complete the mission successfully!"

Ling Lan's eyes twitched again. However, when she noticed that Li Shiyu had no intention of moving out of her office, she released a non-threatening amount of her cold aura.

Li Shiyu noticed the cold aura around her and knew that their regiment commander was becoming impatient. He retracted his smile and asked seriously, "I just want to know what you plan to do."

Ling Lan raised one of her eyebrows in doubt but didn't reply to him.

"Don't tell me that you are going to sit here and watch over everything. You can't fool me," Li Shiyu said indifferently.

Ling Lan smiled. 'As expected, I am unable to trick him.' She wasn't planning to hide in the first place so she didn't mind spilling it. "We have to guard against Song Yiqing."

Only she and Qi Long had the strength and background powerful enough to prevent Song Yiqing from interrupting them, even the three Li brothers wouldn't be able to make Song Yiqing frightened. Qi Long had to leave with his team so she needed to stay back. Additionally, with Qi long leaving, Du Mingyi would feel at ease, allowing her friends' missions to be easier. That meant that she was the only person who could stop Song Yiqing.

Li Shiyu got the answer he wanted and left in satisfaction.

Ling Lan looked at the empty office before finally, releasing an enchanting smile.

"Little Four, control the entire base!" This was impossible for some people. However, to her, this was extremely easy. The mainframe of the base was not a problem for Ling Lan from the very start. Thus, the other teams that collaborated with her were unable to guess her real intentions as she never needed to impeach the commanding officer to obtain what she wanted.

Everyone thought that Ling Lan had to control Du Mingyi before she could control the entire base. Either that or she had to gain some evidence of his crime so that she could use it to threaten him, taking his power away. The last method they thought she might use was to make use of her powerful background to transfer Du Mingyi away (Ling Lan thought about this too but she didn't have the time to do it). This was because only the commanding officer of the base had the authority to command the mainframe of the base. If a mutiny was to occur, the mainframe would reject every order. If the commanding officer disappeared for more than 12 hours, the mainframe would even report this to the higher authorities and locking the protective shield of the base, turning the base into a prison.

Thus, no matter how ridiculous Du Mingyi was, the mecha clans at the base had to continue to put up with him. Song Yiqing didn't dare to offend Du Mingyi and could only cooperate with him because of this reason too.

Ling Lan's aim was simple. She wanted to take down everyone on Du Mingyi's side. However, before this war would end, she hoped that they would behave obediently at the side and not create any more trouble for her.
