Chapter 237 - 237 228 225 Gathering the Troops

237: Chapter 228 Chapter 225: Gathering the Troops 237: Chapter 228 Chapter 225: Gathering the Troops On the top floor of the Great Development Group building, dozens of men dressed in black had gathered.

These men were the trusted lieutenants of Yan Bu’er.

Wu Hua had been cut down in his own residence, and the murderer was none other than Zhang Lang.

When this news broke out, Yan Bu’er was so enraged he nearly coughed up blood.

“Why, why has this happened!

Where did I go wrong to make him betray me!” Yan Bu’er’s face turned pale with rage.

Wearing his pajamas, he glared at the dozens of men who bowed their heads in silence within his office and roared, “What did I do to offend him, to make him strike at Flame Dragon Gang with such viciousness?”

“Gang Leader, please calm down!” One of the lieutenants stepped forward to soothe him, saying, “Perhaps Zhang Lang had long been bought by Heavenly Reversal Gang, leading him to commit such an outrageous act.”

“Damn it, Heavenly Reversal Gang, Ye Chen!” Yan Bu’er clenched his teeth and shouted, “Gather our forces immediately, we’ll launch a night raid on Heavenly Reversal Gang!”

“Yes!” The men nodded in unison.

That very night, Jianghuai City was bustling again.

The underground forces never distinguished between right and wrong, only between war and peace.

Flame Dragon Gang, as Jianghuai City’s big brother, always drew people’s attention and stirred their hearts.

With this call to arms, Yan Bu’er had gathered four hundred thirty-seven of his good men and horses.

It took five trucks just to transport such a crowd.

“Damn, what’s Flame Dragon Gang up to now?”

“Who knows.

I heard the gang from Wu’an City is going to strike at Jianghuai City!”

“Damn, is Wu’an City’s gang crazy to try and touch Jianghuai City?”

“They’re not crazy—they want to use Jianghuai City as a stepping stone and then go straight for the underground forces in Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan!”

The onlookers buzzed with speculation as they watched Flame Dragon Gang gather so many forces overnight, each member dressed in uniform, which was a shock to all.

It seemed the power of Flame Dragon Gang was indeed formidable.

As the existing big brother gang, Flame Dragon Gang was truly unique.

“It looks like Heavenly Reversal Gang is done for now!”

“What crap Heavenly Reversal Gang, in my opinion, it’s just a bunch of people not even equal to a third-rate gang!”

“That’s not necessarily true.

Yan Bu’er’s clashes with Heavenly Reversal Gang aren’t new.

The last time, he was beaten soundly by Heavenly Reversal Gang and didn’t dare to show his face for a week!”

Most of the spectators believed Heavenly Reversal Gang was doomed.

Of course, a small minority still remembered that battle.

When Yan Bu’er called his troops, he didn’t move his own soldiers, just utilized a ragtag army from other gangs to attack Heavenly Reversal Gang.

Unexpectedly, not only did they fail to take down Heavenly Reversal Gang, but they were also viciously attacked and shut in by them.

Yan Bu’er mustered his troops, four truckloads of soldiers, totaling four hundred thirty-seven people, all wearing black coats and black scarves around their necks.

Very imposing.

“Brothers, Heavenly Reversal Gang wants to annihilate our Flame Dragon Gang.

What do you say we do?” Yan Bu’er looked coldly at these four truckloads of troops.

“Kill, kill, kill!” Their spirited shouts were earth-shattering, which even made the onlookers nearby raise their thumbs in admiration.

Just listening to their voices, one could tell these men were battle-ready.

“Flame Dragon Gang hasn’t mobilized such a large force in a long time, but this does not mean we are weaklings to be bullied!” Yan Bu’er yelled at the top of his lungs: “Listen up, for his betrayal of Flame Dragon Gang, Zhang Lang must suffer the punishment of dismemberment by five horses.

Capture Zhang Lang and have him torn apart!”

“Capture Zhang Lang, tear him apart by five horses!” All the men shouted in unison.

With such momentum, it became clear to everyone that Yan Bu’er had gone to such lengths because someone had betrayed him.

This was understandable; with Yan Bu’er’s status in Jianghuai City, the fact someone dared to betray him was intolerable.

But who knew that Zhang Lang also killed one of Yan Bu’er’s confidants?

That was what Yan Bu’er hated most.

Soon after, the troops were on the move.

Yan Bu’er’s high-profile deployment instantly spread throughout Jianghuai City.

Naturally, the news also reached the headquarters of Heavenly Reversal Gang.

Upon receiving the message, everyone from Heavenly Reversal Gang gathered for a meeting.

Zhang Lang, who had just defected, was also present.

Ye Chen did not hide any details from Zhang Lang.

“Brother Chen, we should never have accepted this kid!” Jiang Wei was the first to speak up, saying, “Now look what’s happened–Yan Bu’er is making such a big move.

The situation is very different from last time.

Last time, because those people weren’t from Flame Dragon Gang, they scattered immediately after being attacked.

This time, Yan Bu’er is bringing his own gang members, who are well-trained and strong fighters!”

“I think so too!” Feng Zhixiao nodded, adding, “I knew this day would come.

Even if it weren’t today, it would have been tomorrow!”

“Enough!” Ye Chen glanced at both of them and said, “Let alone that they’re just Flame Dragon Gang, what if they were Hongmen from Hong Kong?!”

Everyone couldn’t help but look at Ye Chen with curiosity.

Could Brother Chen have some way to deal with the Flame Dragon Gang?

Feng Zhixiao couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Chen, do you really have a way?

Are you planning to call in that group of brothers from last time?”

“We do need to call people, but we also need to form a spearhead force ourselves, one that can brutally stab into the enemy’s heart!” Ye Chen’s gaze was icy, sending shivers down everyone’s spines.

A surge of power seemed to well up within each person present.

“Or, you could just hand me over,” Zhang Lang, who had been silent until then, finally spoke up.

“It’s my fault anyway, so I should be the one to bear the consequences!”

“No, absolutely not!” Da Hei immediately objected, saying, “If we start that, who would dare to lay their lives on the line for the Heavenly Reversal Gang in the future?

Who would dare to pledge loyalty to us?”

“That’s right!” Ye Chen nodded and added, “Since it’s come to this, we should stand shoulder to shoulder and keep going.”

“Brother Chen is right!” Feng Zhixiao clenched his teeth and said, “What’s done is done, there’s no changing it.

The only path before us is to go straight ahead, even if we have to grit our teeth and see it through to the end.”

Roar roar roar…

Everyone began to roar with mouths wide open.

Ye Chen immediately ran into a room to call Dian Ling.

The thought of calling Dian Ling gave him a headache.

It had been days since he had seen Little Ni, and he had no idea how she would scold him.

Once she heard he wanted to borrow people from her, she probably would want to kill him.

Naturally, the call was followed by a heavy scolding.

After the scolding, Ye Chen started to speak the plain truth.

“So what you’re telling me is that everything you said today was bullsh*t?

That this was your true motive?” Dian Ling’s mouth curled into a smirk.

Ye Chen had been insisting about how much he missed her and that it was only because he was too busy with work that he forgot to call her.

But within two minutes, the fox’s tail had revealed itself.

Ye Chen didn’t hide it and replied with an awkward laugh, “Lingling, listen to me, it’s an emergency right now.

Yan Bu’er has sent over four hundred people.

If you don’t help me, you probably won’t see me tomorrow!”

“Hmph, I don’t care if I see you!” Dian Ling snorted lightly and said, “I’m not against lending you people, but you’ll have to agree to one thing unconditionally!”

“What is it?” Ye Chen was taken aback.

“Hehe, I don’t know yet, but when I figure it out, I’ll come to you!” Dian Ling said with a sly smile.

Although he knew it was a trap, Ye Chen had no choice but to leap into it.

Seeing that Ye Chen had agreed, Dian Ling asked with a pleased smile, “How many people do you plan to borrow this time?”

“The more the better, of course!” Ye Chen said, breaking out in a sweat.

“Humph, not too many!” Dian Ling retorted sharply, “Last time I lent you people, the higher-ups asked me about it.

This time I can lend you at most two hundred.

Any more would draw their attention.”

“Ah well, two hundred it is then.

But you’ve got to give me solid guys!” Ye Chen immediately ordered.

There were many experts in prison.

As for who to take out, it would depend heavily on both Haozi and Da Xia.

Having been undercover in prison for so long, they should have identified some reliable men by now.

Moreover, Ye Chen had also been considering setting up a security company, planning to take in some discharged soldiers and ex-prisoners.

He believed that by cooperating with Dian Ling, he could arrange for all prisoners to join his company.

This would resolve the issue of manpower within the Heavenly Reversal Gang, and undoubtedly strengthen their power.

Afterwards, Dian Ling hung up the phone, found Haozi and Da Xia, and relayed Ye Chen’s situation to them.

Upon hearing this, the two leapt out of bed and immediately blew their whistles.

A large group of men gathered in the prison’s exercise yard, with Liu the Tyrant and the Four Heavenly Kings, Liu San…

a big crowd came together.

“Brothers, when Brother Chen blows the whistle, we can’t be sloppy!” Da Xia raised an arm and declared, “Grab your gear, let’s go for a stroll!”

“Hahaha…” Everyone burst into laughter.

The chance to breathe some fresh air was an enticing prospect, and everyone present yearned for the freedom to take a walk outside.

Liu the Tyrant grinned and said, “Da Xia, is Brother Chen’s call to arms because there’s a fight?”

“That’s right!” Da Xia nodded, “Those bastards from the Flame Dragon Gang are picking on our people again, so we’re going out to make a statement!”

“Damn, I’ve been itching for a fight; last time wasn’t satisfying.

Those dogs ran away as soon as they arrived.

This time we’ll have a proper battle!” Liu the Tyrant gritted his teeth.

The group then boarded the prison bus, which took everyone out of prison.

Meanwhile, Yan Bu’er was rushing towards the Heavenly Reversal Gang with four hundred and thirty-seven men.

This time, Yan Bu’er had made up his mind to eradicate the Heavenly Reversal Gang or, at the very least, to slaughter Zhang Lang.

This guy Zhang Lang had betrayed him and killed one of his trusted aides.

If he didn’t take down Zhang Lang this time, how could he maintain his authority in front of his brothers?
