Chapter 1375: Chapter 755: Advancing on Multiple Fronts, Perfect Coordination!
The Shadow Troop had already disappeared without a trace.
The manpower transferred to the Garrison Forces created a gap in their defense, immediately opening a breach for Jindai Yunlo.
It was as if Jindai Yunlo knew there would be a weak point at this exact moment, precisely tearing open a gap, pulling Jindai Yunxiu and others to move.
All of this was planned. Everyone timed their actions perfectly so that by the time the Garrison Forces tried to close the breach, it was too late—they could only surround Jindai Yunlo again.
On the other side, the number 20 city’s power distribution station suddenly exploded, plunging the entire city into darkness.
Just as Jindai had once caused a disaster in city 10, now Qing Chen was returning the favor.
The Shadow Troop raced through the city’s shadows, leaving no trace for anyone to follow.
Their target was very clear, and so was their route.
Upon reaching the designated spot, everyone suddenly halted, and unceremoniously began setting up their portable mortars in the street...
"Set parameters: Angle 15, Height 331, Deflection torque 21... Fire!"
A group of Qing’s Family’s shadow special forces fiercely launched a barrage of mortar rounds in Jindai’s most bustling city, targeting a specific area for fire coverage.
Qing Ye exclaimed excitedly, "This way of combat is too wild, right? Even Shadow Boss didn’t dare play this way back in the day."
Qing Qu was feeling a bit uncertain, "Wait, we haven’t even seen the Shadow of the Mental Dojo. Can we really hit the target by adjusting the mortars according to the boss’s parameters?"
There are currently two types of mortars on the battlefield. One is the self-aiming mortar, which can mark fire points directly on the map, with AI automatically calculating the trajectory for fire strikes. But these are relatively cumbersome due to the required AI components and self-aiming motors.
The other is the portable mortar carried by the Shadow Troop, whose main characteristic is strong firepower and portability, lacking self-aiming ability. To hit the target, one must rely on the artillerist’s experience and calculating ability.
A skilled artillerist receives different treatment in the forces; even their meals are better than others’.
In general, to hit a target, a round of reconnaissance is needed to confirm distance and angle, followed by a round of calculating, and after firing; if there’s any deviation, adjustments must be made anew.
But what Qing Chen gave them... was a completely foolproof operation guide: at the 13th manhole cover on Shihoicho Dogen Street, someone had already marked a dotted line for you. Align the mortar base with the dotted line, adjust the angle parameters, and fire.
Even a fool would know how to bombard with that!
Following the new boss makes it feel like one doesn’t have to use too much brainpower to fight. It’s quite enjoyable!
The mortars roared and shredded the night sky of city 20.
The area within a three-kilometer radius around the Mental Dojo was under lockdown, but the parameters given by Qing Chen precisely matched the current portable mortar’s maximum range of seven kilometers.
The last time Qing Chen attacked the Mental Dojo with a sniper rifle, who would have thought he’d use a mortar as a sniper rifle this time?
Mortar, single shot each time, ultra-long range.
Sniper rifle, single shot each time, ultra-long range.
Is there a difference? No difference!
Using a mortar as a sniper rifle, is there a problem? No problem.
With a dull thud, the shell soared into the sky, tracing a faint white line in the night.
In the night sky, the shell began to decelerate slowly, then descended gracefully in an arc.
Jindai Yunyi, shaking his folding fan, was listening to feedback from the Garrison Forces. He smiled, saying, "We still can’t confirm whether Jindai Yunxiu has made a choice, but it doesn’t matter, we can help him make one. If you think the Family Head intends to employ him heavily, that’s a big mistake. It’s just arranging for them to bite each other. Once Jindai Yunlo and Jindai Sorajima are gone, Jindai Yunxiu will naturally be unsupported. That body is good and can serve as the next vessel for the Family Head... Make sure the dojo surroundings are secure, give them no opportunity..."
Before the words were finished.
With a loud boom, the house where Jindai Yunyi was suddenly exploded, the wooden structure of the Mental Dojo blown to pieces, the original wooden walls shattered into shards, and the white paper-covered doors turned to mush.
Jindai Yunyi, no longer composed in the rubble, roared angrily, "Where did the shells come from, why is our stronghold being bombarded? Get me out of here, my legs are broken!"
Surviving subordinates rushed over immediately. This Jindai Yunyi was a direct bloodline of the Family Head. If he died, everyone who failed to save him would face a joint punishment, not just them, but their families too.
This system of collective responsibility ensured the commander’s safety.
The subordinates, protecting Jindai Yunyi, charged out, but the artillery seemed omnipresent; it was like being on the front line.
As they ran, another shell landed near them, ten or so people thrown about by shockwaves and shrapnel, among the two hundred or more left in the Mental Dojo, it was lucky for even ten percent to survive.
Boom after boom of shelling, incessant, continued, while on the street seven kilometers away, the Shadow Troop kept firing.
After all, how much does a mortar shell cost? Each person could carry five without hindering their action, not using up the firepower parameters given by the boss would be a waste!
When each person was down to their last shell, Qing Ye pulled out a small note: "Alright, everyone adjust the mortar to a 66-degree angle, elevate it by 11 degrees... Wait! It’s not time yet! Everyone check the parameters, don’t make any mistakes!"
Qing Qu looked ahead and said, "There are two buildings in front of the cannon muzzle, so close together, and where are these shells supposed to go?"
Qing Ye responded, "I don’t know either, the boss didn’t say, and we didn’t dare ask. The boss only instructed that parameters must be adjusted correctly, else it would lead to civilian casualties."
"Alright then," Qing Qu smacked his lips, "the boss gets the final say."
Qing Ye suddenly said, "Countdown, 3, 2, 1! Fire!"
Bam bam bam!
One by one, the shells whistled across the sky, passing straight through the several-meter gap between two buildings, shot directly up into the heavens.
Qing Ye said, "Abandon the mortars, everyone advance at full speed in the 3 o’clock direction, we must arrive at the target operating position within 20 minutes!"
On the other side, as Jindai Yunlo broke through, he glanced at the time.
Time was running out!
He suddenly erupted with force, the Hundred-Eyed Demon paving the way at the cost of life force, wielding the Ten-Direction World.
The white Azure Dragon wrapped him protectively with its body, and all Onmyoji and shikigami entered an unstoppable berserk state.
After passing a certain terrain, Jindai Yunlo suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Qing Chen promised him that once he arrived here, the pursuing forces would be cut off.
However, Qing Chen didn’t explain how the pursuers would be cut off.
Jindai Yunlo looked around, puzzled, where were the reinforcements Qing Chen had mentioned? He wasn’t keeping his word!
Before he could figure it out, sharp whooshing sounds rose from the sky.
With a boom, the street was blown apart by mortars from a distance, and as Jindai Yunlo looked back, he saw the pursuing forces scattered by the explosion.

Meanwhile.
In the sewage channel, Zhu San, the lawless bandit, looked at the King Kong network blocking his way. This net, with over a dozen layers, was specifically designed to prevent Parents’ Meeting infiltration from this point.
The King Kong net was connected to alarms; if any wire were cut, it would immediately alert the nearby Garrison Forces.
Zhu San did not recklessly damage it, as it was also part of the boss’s plan.
He checked his watch, walked to the outside of the sewage channel... it should be now.
The next second, a thunderous sound rolled in from the clouds, resounding through the air.
That was the sound of a mortar explosion, finally transmitting here across several tens of kilometers.
Zhu San knew the time had come.
The Garrison Forces on the frontier began redeploying into the city, while Zhu San in the sewage channel opened his backpack, attaching two remote-controlled bombs to the King Kong net.
He backed away, with a boom, sewage and dirt splattered, smoke filled the air.
When the smoke dissipated, the King Kong net within had been utterly destroyed.
"Let’s go, brothers," Zhu San waved his hand, as the roach tide followed him inward.
When the Garrison Forces realized someone was intruding, the roaches had all hidden within the city 20’s garbage disposal system to feast on trash, while Zhu San blended in as an Ordinary Person, awaiting the next call from the Parents’ Meeting.
From start to finish, the multi-line invasions and action groups in city 20 hadn’t communicated or met; everyone simply coordinated perfectly on the timeline orchestrated by Qing Chen.
