Chapter 1399: Leaving Air Cavalry Regiment

“Two days ago, Major Zhang Tie destroyed the remote-sensing device on his plane, causing connection failure between the regimental headquarters and the no. 1 battalion. Therefore, I sent him in custody for one week!” Xing Xiangtian immediately interpreted it to them when he noticed the two knights’ weird expressions.

“How...how...how could you do that...” Wei Jingxian pointed at Xing Xiangtian as he stammered, “Hurry, lead us there...”

Xing Xiangtian was confused about Wei Jingxian’s anxiety. Out of timidity, suspicion, amazement and curiosity, he brought the two knights to Zhang Tie’s guardhouse.

...

When the sound of footsteps approached the door, Zhang Tie almost finished his communication with many people. With flickering lotus flower eyes, he threw a glance outside through the thick iron wall when he saw Xing Xiangtian bringing here 2 knights.

When he contacted Zuoqiu Mingyue just now, Zhang Tie had received the news that Zuoqiu Mingyue assigned two people to “escort” him back to Xuanyuan Fortress. The two knights, one heavenly knight, the other shadow knight must be assigned by Zuoqiu Mingyue.

The four provinces in the Western Theater of Operations had already been chaotic. Those pilot academies in this territory had already suspended. The provincial and prefectural agricultural agencies across the region had been struck all of a heap. As a result, the Kangzhou Provincial Agricultural Bureau received a multitude of inquiries, driving Lu Yanyu mad. Many senior officers of frontline corps and knights in Xuanyuan fortress had already known this news, eradicating the morale very much. Xuanyuan Fortress urgently needed Zhang Tie to show up in the public for shattering the “rumor” and reassuring the people.

The no. 46 air cavalry regiment would not be a permanent choice for Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie let out a sigh inside. ‘I’ve not accomplished my plan in the no. 46 air cavalry regiment. Air cavalries are still exploring and improving air wolf pack tactic of wing demons. With over one month, I could only lead the low altitude or super low altitude parachute training of air cavalries into the right track and reduce some loss for them in the future. That’s all I could do. However, individual power always has its upper limit. It’s a national affair. In many cases, it couldn’t be tackled by me alone. After leaving the no. 46 air cavalry regiment, I could only have the subordinates explore the corresponding training themselves. Thankfully, I have Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory and could have them explore the training skills themselves in advance. As long as Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory make their achievements, all the other local air cavalries would definitely imitate them based on the position and influence of air cavalries in Taixia Country. There would definitely be a rosy future.’

At this moment, unlocking sound drifted from outside the door. With a click, the iron door of the grim guardhouse was pushed open from outside.

“Ahem..ahem...” The heavenly knight on Wei Jingxian’s side pretended to cough twice before opening his mouth, “General must have already known what happened outside. The commander-in-chief is waiting for the general in Xuanyuan Fortress so as to make people reassured...”

The moment this knight opened his mouth, Xing Xiangtian who was standing outside the guardhouse had felt a buzz in his mind, ‘General? Why this knight who seems to have a higher rank than Wei Jingxian calls Zhang Tie general? Is that a hallucination...’

“Thanks...” Zhang Tie picked himself up with a calm look as he exited the guardhouse.

“It’s my pleasure!” Even the shadow knight dared not behave insolently in front of Zhang Tie.

“I’m clear that the general is merciful. However, I’ve not imagined that the general would like to enter the camp once again for the sake of tens of millions of air cavalries in the theater of operations. On behalf of tens of thousands of air cavalries in the theater of operations, Wei Jinxian extends my thanks to general...” Wei Jingxian bowed deeply towards Zhang Tie with a long sigh and a complicated expression.

“General Wei, you’re being too polite. As a member of Taixia Country and a knight, I just did what I should do...” Zhang Tie helped Wei Jingxian stand straight.

Xing Xiangtian widely opened his mouth with a shocked look. He couldn’t utter any voice anymore. Even Wei Jingxian called this Zhang Tie ‘general’, who else could he be other than Zhang Mushen the Qianji Hermit and Weiji General who stabilized the rear end of the theater of operations and invented the airplane and Fiery Oil? ‘Major Zhang Tie is the very renowned one who was sent in confinement...’

“Regimental Commander Xing...”

“Ahh...this humble...humble...humble officer is here...” Xing Xiangtian stammered at once.

“Regimental Commander Xing, sorry to bring you troubles these days in the no. 1 camp!” Zhang Tie said elegantly and gently.

“It’s...it’s the honor...aww, no, the glory of this humble officer...and the no. 46 air cavalry regiment...”

“Over the past month, the no. 1 battalion has been carrying out the training of air wolf pack tactic. Here are my gnosis and training guidelines. Please have officers of the no. 1 battalion continue the training of fighters of the no. 1 battalion if possible...” Zhang Tie said as he took out a thick pile of documents from his space-teleportation equipment.

Although being the Weiji General of the theater of operations, Zhang Tie couldn’t interfere with military affairs directly. Therefore, Zhang Tie presented what he had compiled over the past month to Xing Xiangtian.

Xing Xiangtian nodded as he took Zhang Tie’s compilation of documents by two hands respectfully which felt so heavy.

“Additionally, Stone has been LV 2. I’ve promised him to enroll him as an air cavalry in the pilot academy after he reaches LV 3. Stone is talented. Please take care of him after I leave, Regimental Commander Xing...”

“It’s my pleasure; it’s my pleasure...” Xing Xiangtian said.

After saying these words, Zhang Tie looked at the other two knights as he said, “Okay, let’s go...”

Zhang Tie and the other two knights then walked outside while slowly changing his look. When they exited this building of Law Enforcement Center of the no. 46 air cavalry regiment, Zhang Tie had already recovered his original look——a comely Hua teenager.

Watching Zhang Tie gradually becoming another person, even the other two knights were greatly shocked, not to mention Xing Xiangtian.

All the officers and fighters in the Law Enforcement Center of the no. 46 air cavalry regiment were gazing at Zhang Tie out of amazement who came out of the guardhouse while changing his look.

When something icy fell onto his face, Zhang Tie raised his face as he found some snowflakes were descending facing the north wind in the evening sky.

It was snowing...

Closely after that, Zhang Tie flew off and made a circle above the camp of the no. 1 battalion. Zhang Tie’s arrival shocked the fighters of the no. 1 battalion while many fighters ran out of their barracks and pointed at the sky. Zhang Tie just threw a last glance at them before flying towards Xuanyuan Fortress above the east bank of Weishui River...

Not until Zhang Tie left did the fighters of the no. 1 battalion realize that it was him who came here to bid a farewell to them...
