Chapter 28: The Chief’s Rage Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the Joint Office of the Jinling War Zone.

There was a sharp squeal of brakes and a mud-spattered SUV command vehicle screeched to a halt.

A colonel in woodland camouflage, with his face still painted, jumped out of the car and hurried into the staff office building.

In the Joint Staff Operations department.

The colonel, covered in mud, came straight to the minister’s office. “Report,” he shouted energetically. When he received permission, he pushed open the door and went in.

“Chief!” The colonel called out with a crisp lean-to as he entered the room.

There was a middle-aged man of about 50 year old sitting behind the desk. He had a gold-flecked rank of major general on his crisp uniform. The major general was slightly surprised to see the colonel. He asked.

“Guo Zhan? Shouldn’t you be training with the wolf cubs at the Green Cloud Mountain base? Why did you suddenly come back?”

Guo Zhan was the captain of the Lone Wolf Commando Team, codenamed “Wolf King.”

He said.

“Chief, I have an emergency to report to you. One of our brothers who retired this year has run into a little trouble...”

“Retired this year? I remember that during this year, you only recruited people and didn’t have anyone who retired...” the major general said in confusion, but then he reacted and raised his eyebrows. “You mean the Blood Wolf? The Blood Wolf who voluntarily withdrew from active service because he was terminally ill?”

“Yes, Chief!” Guo Zhan said.

“What happened to him? Did he encounter some problems?” the major general asked, sitting up a little straighter.

For Guo Zhan to rush over from the training base in the suburbs in such a hurry, without even having time to change out from his muddy camouflage uniform, this matter must not be small.

After the telephone call the Major General leaned back in his chair and said.

“Go get yourself a glass of water! Stay here and wait for the news. If I’m not satisfied with today’s matter, I’ll go to the Southeast Province with you!”

“Yes! Thank you, Chief!” Guo Zhan puffed out his chest.

...

The major general’s phone calls had already caused an uproar in Southeast Province.

In the Three Mountains City Government Office Building.

Mayor Tian Huilan was signing a document with a slight frown when the red phone on her desk rang urgently.

Tian Huilan put down her pen and reached for the phone.

“Hello... Secretary Lin, hello... Yes... Yes... Yes... Understood... I’ll be right there!”

After hanging up the phone, Tian Huilan’s expression became extremely solemn. Secretary Lin of the Provincial Party Committee had personally called, and it even involved a military conflict. Most importantly, it had happened in the jurisdiction of her Three Mountain City. How could this matter be small?

She pressed the internal intercom and said.

“Little Wu, come in for a while!”

There was a soft knock on the office door. Secretary Wu Liqian pushed it open and said.

“You wanted to see me, Mayor?”

“Little Wu, inform Comrade Chen Bo from the Municipal Public Security Bureau and Commissar Wu Huai from the garrison to come to the municipal government immediately. It’s an urgent matter! Also, get Little Zhang to prepare the car. When Director Chen and Commissar Wu arrive, we have to set off immediately. Tell them that I’ll tell them in detail on the way!”
