The Female General Dominates All After Transmigration-Chapter 369 - 368: A Blade for Slaughtering Chickens

Chapter 369: Chapter 368: A Blade for Slaughtering Chickens

The other party stated that after the incident, the relevant local departments paid great attention and would try their best to solve the case. However, the other party admitted that since the crime scene was at the junction of three provinces, the geographical position was special, and the perpetrators were likely from neighboring provinces, which made the case difficult to handle. Even if it is successfully solved, it may take a long time, and they advised Ling Chengyan to be psychologically prepared.

After expressing her gratitude, Ling Chengyan hung up the phone.

Before making the call, she had already made a rough judgment, and the call was just to confirm the situation, as well as to serve as a prompt.

After the call, she temporarily put the matter aside.

Some matters have to rely on specialized departments to handle, but some things can be resolved by oneself.

Not only Ling Chengyan felt this way, but the old man Ling and Ling Er thought the same.

The old man Ling had his health checked to confirm that there were no major issues, and Ling Chengyan took him to see an old Chinese medicine doctor who had diagnosed him before, prescribed some medicine, and slowly recuperated after returning.

While taking medicine, she spent a hefty sum to contact and install several air conditioners at the old man Ling’s room in Huicheng and her own home. This way, when the old man returns home, he won’t need to use a coal stove for heating, avoiding smoke from coal. At her own place, the air conditioner prevents the room from getting too cold when the heating stops at night.

The prescription provided by the old Chinese doctor included expensive medicinal materials like ginseng, seahorse, and gecko. Ling Chengyan directly procured a mountain ginseng to add to the old man’s medicine.

Looking at the mountain ginseng, which is thinner than a little finger and less than two inches, Ling Chengyan couldn’t help but sigh.

Thinking back to the Great Qi Country, this kind of less-than-ten-year-old item would hardly be used as medicine, but now it is hard to find one.

The ones sold in pharmacy are all artificially cultivated ginseng, each looking like a carrot, and its efficacy is really not much better than a carrot.

Ling Er stayed in the provincial city for a week, watching his subordinate who had a leg injury recover after surgery, before leaving.

During Ling Er’s stay in the provincial city, the old man Ling’s medicine was managed by Ling Er. Once Ling Er left, this task was taken over by Wang Liansheng, who spent two hours morning and night each day brewing medicine for the old man without missing a single time.

As the Spring Festival approached, there was no longer long training arrangements in the team, but daily training didn’t pause.

Especially since the new members joining this year were lacking in many aspects, Ling Chengyan kept digging into the potential of the old members while meticulously honing the new recruits’ capabilities.

Just ten days after Ling Er’s convoy incident, Ling Chengyan was notified to attend a meeting at the compound.

Upon arriving in the conference room, Ling Chengyan saw several colleagues from the locality in attendance, including two familiar faces from the Public Security Department.

Before long, the district leader and a local leader walked in together.

When the meeting began, it dawned on Ling Chengyan that another violent robbery took place along the road where Ling Er was robbed. The key point is that this time, not only were goods robbed, but two truck drivers were injured - one dead, one seriously injured.

The seriously injured driver, fortunate to be a bit clever, pretended to be dead after being struck by a shovel to avoid further harm, then crawled under the vehicle in the chaos, barely escaping with his life.

The other driver, however, couldn’t escape misfortune, being beaten to death, with blunt and sharp weapon injuries all over his body, half of his head was smashed - extremely cruel!

This heinous case occurred just before the Spring Festival, causing a shock in the three provinces.

Therefore, the Public Security Department especially sought assistance from the special operations team, with the sole purpose: to wipe out the road bandits and restore the safety of the people in the three provinces.

Ling Chengyan listened silently and recorded the detailed circumstances of the five consecutive cases.

At the end of the Public Security personnel’s speech, a significant reminder was given: "A few years ago, that region was rampant with road bandits and bullies, and after several crack-down and rectification actions, it was temporarily cleared, but this year has seen a resurgence with repeated offenses... Could these offenders be related to those involved previously?"

During her time in the Automobile Company, Ling Chengyan often traveled long distances out of the province. Back then, to address such situations, she specially applied for gear for soldiers performing long-distance missions, and each long mission involved at least two people.

She herself had experienced several incidents, relying on her strength to force her way through a few times and even helped the Public Security Department catch robbers several times.

She was quite familiar with this situation, many secluded roads, especially mountain roads, sometimes the robbers weren’t ordinary ’hooligans, bandits’, but locals from nearby villages, who worked as farmers during the day, and at night banded together with people from their village to rob vehicles passing the roads.

Some of her comrades were also injured by them.

These people often attack without any scruples, counting on ’law not punishing masses’.

Due to the special geographical location, communication and coordination between two, three places were quite troublesome, and indeed there is difficulty in holding majority responsible, even if accountability is pursued, it is only against a few core individuals, most wouldn’t face severe punishment. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

After the military and local leaders finished speaking, Ling Chengyan made a request: "Assisting in the operation is possible; however, I want to understand the detailed case information in advance, including whether I could borrow the files of all the robbery cases that happened there?"

If the matter hadn’t landed in her hands, she probably wouldn’t have taken direct action, letting her brothers and Public Security on two lines, public and private, solve it together.

But, things were coincidentally entrusted to her, and she wanted to understand the situation in more detail, not wanting to wrongly punish an innocent, but unwilling to let go of a criminal.

Anyone involved in robbery or even murder, whether or not a principal, is not innocent in Ling Chengyan’s eyes.

No one participating is innocent.

Given it happened before the Spring Festival, to ensure the public celebrates an orderly and peaceful holiday, the higher-ups gave a deadline to eliminate the gang of road bandits before the festival.

The six-word directive given was: Resolute, Rapid, Thorough!

Ling Chengyan and the provincial Public Security personnel in charge of this case stood up, saluted, solemnly accepting the command.

The sharp blade is about to be unsheathed, where the sword’s edge aims—

Zhang Yuanhong delivered a sentence: "Use an ox cleaver to kill a chicken!"

Ling Chengyan smiled but said nothing.

Returning to the squad, Ling Chengyan hurried to convene a meeting with several squad leaders. Upon explaining the matter, though a bit indifferent, everyone actively volunteered for the mission.

With a calm expression, Ling Chengyan spoke: "Your instructor said this matter is nothing more than killing a chicken with an ox cleaver for you all. You should prove whether an ox cleaver can kill a chicken; don’t let it escape afterwards!"

Squad One leader, Geng Wei, was the first to stand, thumping his chest: "I’m willing to undertake a military order of merit!"

Squad Two and Squad Three immediately stood and echoed: "I’m also willing..."

"We can also undertake..."
