It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 839 If I Were You!

"What happened?" A senior captain beside him asked hurriedly.

Song Yiqing took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He said, "Ling Lan is really bold. He actually sent his men to surround the command center. He wants to force Du Mingyi to handover his powers."

The senior captain's expression changed. "Force Du Mingyi? Is he crazy?" If Du Mingyi decided to fight to the end, the entire base would be implicated, including them.

"He is a lunatic. He s.n.a.t.c.hed all the food at the welcoming dinner, offending all the officers above the rank of a junior officer. Then, he wiped out the entire Evil Wind Mecha Team. He sent his logisticians to grab supplies from the warehouse and now, he is making use of DEFCON 1 alert to take control of the base when everyone is in a mess and doesn't have the time to care about him. Look at all the things he did. Which one of them is not crazy?" Song Yiqing said angrily.

He started pacing around his office in frustration. He pondered if he should get involved in this messy situation.

"Should we take part in this matter?" Song Yiqing was afraid of 250 Ace Mecha Clan so he couldn't make a decision. Hence, he asked his confidant who was specially sent by the Song family to give his opinion on the matter.

"Did Du Mingyi promise many benefits?" The senior captain asked.

"Yes, he promised if we help him to destroy 250 Ace Mecha Clan, he would give us the power over the command chain in Base 013." Song Yiqing's eyes lit up. He had been eyeing Base 013 for a long time. Unfortunately, Du Mingyi was not easy to deal with. He didn't seem to have any background but there was always an invisible faction protecting him whenever he tried to do something to him. He tried to bring him down many times but failed as many times.

However, the arrival of 250 Ace Mecha Clan changed the tides to his favour. Du Mingyi had no choice but to rely on him now. This was a great surprise to him but it meant that he needed to become enemies with 250 Ace Mecha Clan. This was a mecha clan that even the Song family was unwilling to provoke. This was the only reason why Song Yiqing was hesitant.

"If that is the case, we can take part!" The senior captain was tempted too. Taking over the command chain of the base was the test the Song family gave Song Yiqing. If he succeeded, Song Yiqing would be able to be seen in a more favourable light in the family and might be promoted to a higher position.

As the grandson of the Marshal Song and someone whom the family was willing to groom, Song Yiqing was not a rash person. He was logical and calm so he decided to figure out the overall situation first before deciding whether or not he should partic.i.p.ate in this farce. The senior captain ordered his men to send them updates on the recent actions of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. What they received back is that all of 250's mecha operators were in the mecha hold while only Ling Lan was left to guard the camp with just a bunch of logisticians to help him.

If the mecha operators were present, they would be afraid to join in this fight due to their impressive capabilities and background. However, these people were now all stuck at the mecha hold, and the ones left were ordinary logisticians who were weak with no background. No matter how powerful Ling Lan was, he wouldn't be able to defend against the raid of an entire mecha clan, right?

Song Yiqing and the senior captain were elated when they received this piece of news. Both of them felt that this was an extremely good opportunity. Not only were they able to take revenge for the humiliation they had suffered, but they could also gain control over the command chain of the base.

"Ai Liang, inform everyone to prepare to reinforce the command center." Song Yiqing slammed his fist on the table and gave his order.

"Yes, regiment commander." The senior captain, whose name was Ai Liang, immediately accepted the order.

Little Four was monitoring 224 Mecha Clan the entire time, so when they started moving, he immediately reported to Ling Lan.

Ling Lan put down the teacup in her hand and smiled. "Money and power are indeed very tempting. As expected, Song Yiqing was unable to refuse the temptation."

Ling Lan disappeared from her office after she said that.

Soon, Song Yiqing led his fully armed 224 Mecha Clan out of their camp. There were about 1000 people in his mecha clan, all rus.h.i.+ng towards the command center.

While they were running, their vision started to get blurry. A dense mist had suddenly appeared in the base for some reason, it was so dense that they were only able to see one metre ahead of them. No, it might be even shorter.

Song Yiqing looked around and suddenly realized something. His expression immediately changed and shouted, "Stop!"

The entire base was encased by a protective s.h.i.+eld and there was a temperature regulation system inside the base, so it was impossible to have mist here unless something went wrong with the protective s.h.i.+eld and the temperature regulation system.

The entire 224 Mecha Clan stopped moving under Song Yiqing's command.

The organized footsteps quiet down. It was dead silent. Suddenly, faint footsteps could be heard over the dense mist.

It was the sound of a pair of military boots stepping firmly on the ground. The sound got nearer and nearer to them.

"Be careful and be on your guard." Song Yiqing looked at the front of him intently. He whispered to Ai Liang and ordered him to remind the people behind them to be vigilant.

Not long after, a figure finally walked out of the mist. The mist had gradually turned less dense now. They were able to see 20 metres ahead of them. There was a distance between the figure and him but Song Yiqing would already feel the cold aura the person exuded. The coldness engulfed his body whole, leaving him to feel dread for the first time.

As the figure got closer, Song Yiqing finally managed to see him clearly. The person wore a blue and white military uniform with a white cloak draped over his shoulders which swayed in the air as he moved. He was walking in a calm and casual manner with a silver short whip in his hand

Song Yiqing never saw Ling Lan before but the moment he saw this person, Ling Lan's name popped up in his mind.

The person stopped when he was just five metres away from Song Yiqing and looked at them with an indifferent gaze.

"Ling Lan!" Song Yiqing gritted his teeth. He didn't expect the other party to be monitoring him too. This was the only reason why Ling Lan could catch him the moment he came out of his camp.

"Song Yiqing." Ling Lan replied nonchalantly, "If I were you, I would turn back and return to my own camp now. You, will not take part in the matter between Du Mingyi and me."

"Ling Lan, if I were you, I would surrender immediately, and please stop making a desperate attempt to struggle." Song Yiqing noticed that Ling Lan came alone so he started sneering at her.

"Song Yiqing, no wonder you got exiled by your family. You are quite stupid." Ling Lan shook her head with pity. "Your mecha clan means nothing to me. I wasted so much time to talk to you because our parents all have high positions in the military, and I don't want to spoil their friendly relations.h.i.+p."
