Chapter 397. To Improve and Rectify One’s Wrongs (2)
In the northern battlefront...
The North's alliance forces confirmed their battle plan before commencing the war.
"According to the Beggar Gang's intel, the Dark Heavens Association's northern army with seven thousand troops is currently passing through a plain near Huaibei in the north of Anhui province."
"I see. At this rate, we'll collide against them head-on, then," said the former commander of Guizhou, Shen Tujun.
"It seems you've already memorized the surrounding areas, even though it has not been long since you've been transferred to the Martial Alliance headquarters," said Tang Hui. She then warned Shen Tujun. "You've finally managed to escape Guizhou to get reassigned to the headquarters, so if you wish to keep rising through the ranks, please don't even dare try to take shortcuts. Do your best to work yourself to the bone."
"O-of course," Shen Tujun replied as a bead of cold sweat trickled down his skin.
I figured I finally got a chance to kick back and relax in the headquarters, so to think I'd get dragged back into another battlefield so soon!
The Martial Alliance's executives gathered talented individuals in preparation for the desperate battle to reclaim Hefei from the Dark Heavens Association. Thus, Shen Tujun, who had already made a name for himself as an excellent commander during his time in Guizhou, was transferred to the headquarters.
When he first heard the news, he vigorously celebrated the fact that he could finally escape the hateful little province called Guizhou.
Hahaha! Training Meng Chuhe and Zhu Meng like crazy is finally paying off! Good, good!
The issue of a suitable successor hadn't been addressed, so he couldn't leave. However, the issue was finally resolved. Meng Chuhe and Zhu Meng sometimes got in each other's faces whenever their competitiveness became a little too aggressive, but Shen Tujun told himself not to sweat over it anymore, even though the two could get into trouble in the future.
