Chapter 214: Scorpion
In the huge military tent where dozens of people were sitting, this deafening promise sounded. The iron-bloodedness of the soldiers increased Su Qing’s will to fight too.
She stood beside Yuan Cheng and took a few deep looks at these heroic soldiers. Under the black mask, her lips were pursed into a firm smile.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and it was already ten o’clock at night. The population in Namphan was concentrated, but the electric infrastructure was not perfect enough. There were still many families who couldn’t afford to use the lights at night. Of course, this didn’t include the location of the Scorpion Gang.
Scorpio sat in the wooden room with a gloomy expression,
He had clearly arranged to meet Huo Qi for a business meeting today, but he had been ambushed by a few small gangs nearby. The losses weren’t heavy, but he had missed the agreed time with Huo Qi!
“F*ck! These sons of b*tches chose today to delay my business. They really don’t want their lives anymore!” Scorpio drank the wine in his glass in one gulp and said fiercely to his deputy standing in front.
The deputy smiled lightly and said indifferently, “Boss, this can’t be considered a bad thing.”
Scorpio looked up at his deputy and narrowed his eyes in confusion. “What do you mean?”
“Doesn’t the Huo family think that they’re the number one gang in the country? Now, they’ve also become the overlords of the underworld. How awe-inspiring!” As he spoke, he smiled sarcastically, as though he disdained a behemoth like the Huo family.
As though he had thought of something, he smiled proudly and continued, “But wasn’t Huo Qi fooled by us today? We’ve ignored him for the entire day, so we can take the opportunity to kill the Huo family’s morale. When we contact them tomorrow, we can negotiate a good price, right? Hahaha! Just thinking about it makes me feel extremely happy!”
Scorpio was also very happy to hear this analysis. He laughed and said loudly, “What you said makes sense! Huo Qi is still in a hurry! That’s right, let’s just leave him hanging and let him know that we aren’t to be trifled with. So what if we snatch his goods? He still has to wait obediently for me to send him the news and act according to my wishes. Hahaha!”
The temperature in the rainforest decreased at night, and there was an occasional breeze.
While Scorpion was still feeling smug, Huo Qi had already brought his men up the map.
He and Huo Feng were squatting in a forest a few meters away from Scorpion’s lair, observing the terrain and the garrison with binoculars.
This place wasn’t difficult to find, and the roads were also accessible. Huo Qi guessed that this was a place that Scorpion had specially chosen, with the goal of making it easier for him to escape.
In front of this place was the towering rainforest vegetation, and behind it was the sea.
“This place is very good. Scorpion sure knows how to choose,” Huo Qi said sarcastically as he put down the night vision binoculars in his hand.
Huo Feng looked at the dilapidated houses in the distance and couldn’t understand what Huo Qi was saying, so he asked, “What’s so good about this place? Why can’t I tell?”
Huo Qi glanced at him indifferently and pointed at the front and back of the house. He explained casually, “They’ve set up lookout posts all over the village. Once they discover any enemies, they’ll fight if they can, but if they can’t, they’ll run away. The forest is ahead, and if the enemies run in, they’ll be like stones sinking into the sea. No one can beat them in the forest, and after that, it’ll be the river. Once they get on the speedboat, who can catch them?”
Looking at Huo Feng’s enlightened expression, Huo Qi was speechless.
It seemed like he had to let Huo Feng go out and train more in the future. Why was his combat experience worse than his?
Huo Feng, who had learned a lot, still didn’t know that his future professional life had been completely controlled by Huo Qi.
“Tell our brothers to get ready. We’ll attack in five minutes!” Huo Qi instructed calmly.
He could already feel the moisture on the wound on his back and could even smell blood. He had been running around with his brothers for the entire day, and his wound was probably bleeding again.
He had to end this battle quickly.
Huo Feng nodded and turned around to gesture to all his brothers, indicating for everyone to prepare.
