Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies novel Chapter 382

Chapter 382: Li Tianyu’s Decision

Although Long Yu had only collaborated with Li Tianyu and the other captains of the Second Army a few times, they were all soldiers of the Juncheng Military Base.

No matter what happened, they were still his comrades. For Du Zhaoyi to treat them this way made Long Yu grit his teeth in anger. _{frёeweɓηovel.coɱ}

Sensing his anger, Yao Ran reached out to hold his tightly clenched hand under the table. Feeling the warmth of her touch, Long Yu gradually calmed down. Once he had composed himself, Yao Ran turned her attention back to Li Tianyu.

"Captain Li, how many of your men are willing to join us?" she asked.

Li Tianyu had already consulted his comrades about this matter after deciding to join Long Yu's team, so he was prepared with an answer.

He looked at Yao Ran and replied, "There are 500 brothers who will follow me. As for the others, they haven't answered me yet."

Yao Ran understood that most military personnel joined for the same purpose: to defend their country and protect their families. Therefore, it wouldn't be easy for them to decide to leave the military.

If not for Du Zhaoyi's excessive actions, Yao Ran believed that Li Tianyu wouldn't have left the Second Army to join them.

With that in mind, Yao Ran said, "I understand. Since you and your brothers want to join us, will you go back to the air raid shelter with Boss Ling and the others?"

Li Tianyu pondered her question for a moment before replying, "It will take us some time to complete the process of retiring from the military. We might need to stay here for a while before heading to the air raid shelter."

Before the apocalypse, it wouldn't be difficult for soldiers to retire early. Now, with the world in chaos and soldiers in high demand, it was almost impossible for their supervisor to let them retire early.

Considering Du Zhaoyi's ambitions to expand his influence and power within the Juncheng Military Base, Yao Ran suspected it would be challenging for Li Tianyu and his comrades to retire smoothly.

While she considered this, Long Yu asked, "Captain Li, do you think Du Zhaoyi will let you retire?"

"I don't think so," Li Tianyu admitted before falling silent.

A few seconds later, he smiled faintly and added, "But don't worry about that. Even if he doesn't agree to our retirement, he can't stop us."

"There are no longer any systems or rules binding us to the army except our loyalty. Since Commander Du betrayed us first, he has no right to forbid us from leaving."

Knowing Li Tianyu's character, Long Yu realized he wouldn't say such words unless he had a plan and the confidence to achieve the desired result.

"Since you are confident that you can retire smoothly, then welcome to our team, Captain Li," Long Yu said, extending his hand toward him.
