Chapter 636: Chapter 617:

In a room on the second floor of a restaurant, everyone took their seats. A seductive woman served tea and water for the group. Shadow also entered and took his seat, smiling at everyone, he said, "Gentlemen, it’s been a tough journey. Please let me offer tea in place of alcohol, to toast you!"

"Ah, so stingy, not even a single drink!" One of the little brothers complained from behind. Drinking was one of their greatest pleasures. After such a long and arduous trip, the lack of a drink, of course, left them feeling downhearted. Shadow chuckled and said, "Wait until the matter is settled, and I’ll gift each of you a few bottles of fine liquor!"

"Wow, really?" The little brothers perked up immediately.

"Dammit, all of you shut up!" Vulture glared angrily at the crowd and shouted, "What do you all look like? Today we are here to discuss important matters with Mr. Shadow. The Heavenly Reversal Gang has beaten us, the Thirteen Eagles, bloody, and Mr. Shadow has shown us such regard. We must repay Mr. Shadow properly. How do you think you look right now?"

"Yes, yes!" The little brothers all scurried to one side, snickering quietly.

"Mr. Shadow, these damn dogs usually lack discipline. When I get back, I’ll give them a good lesson!" Vulture feigned anger. In fact, he was secretly pleased. The Thirteen Eagles were currently short on liquor, always hiding out in godforsaken places, where could they possibly get fine food and drinks?

"There’s no need for discipline, just a need for the brothers to put in more effort," Shadow said with a faint smile.

"Let’s get straight to the point, Mr. Shadow!" Vulture immediately responded with a smile.

"I’m here to talk about the affair with the Heavenly Reversal Gang in the Southwest. This time I plan to aid you, and I’ll also secretly provide support!" Shadow revealed with a light smile.

"Really?" Vulture was taken aback.

"Of course. Today I have brought a hundred guns and ten thousand bullets as a gift for our meeting!" Shadow said, sporting a smile, "In the future, I will gradually offer support to Mr. Vulture. All I hope is that in three days, you will drive the Heavenly Reversal Gang out of the Southwest."

"Well, as long as the support is in place, we can definitely take care of them!" Vulture grinned and said, "Some artillery shells, some munitions, hehe, let’s see if they can withstand that!"

Shadow was momentarily stunned, then burst out laughing, "Mr. Vulture, you certainly have a way with words!"

"Not as much as you cultured people!" Vulture laughed heartily.

After some conversation, the two finalized their agreement, and the support Shadow would provide the Thirteen Eagles was all laid out. Both parties reached a simple agreement. In the end, the Thirteen Eagles’ little brothers left carrying several cases of liquor, beaming with joy, as if they had won some grand prize.

"Big Brother, do you think this guy named Shadow is really strange, why would he give us so much stuff?" A little brother asked curiously.

"That’s to have us fight the Heavenly Reversal Gang!" Vulture laughed.

"But fighting the Heavenly Reversal Gang is what we’ve been doing all along!" the little brother said with a grin, "With all this ammunition suddenly given to us, it’d be strange if we couldn’t beat them."

"Heh, if someone’s a fool, what can you do?" Vulture laughed heartily. After that, the crowd drove off with a hundred guns and an additional ten thousand bullets, which for the Thirteen Eagles was already a hefty reward.

The little brothers looked at the wooden boxes of firearms. Though the stuff was surplus from the army, it was enough. In another box, heavy bullets were packed in boxes; opening them revealed gleaming ammo that dazzled the eyes.

"We’ve struck it rich, shit!" The little brothers were so excited that they couldn’t wait to start fiddling with the firearms in the car. This batch of guns would undoubtedly enhance the little brothers’ strength significantly.

Three days later, in the Southwest of China, even though the Heavenly Reversal Gang was fully prepared, an earth-shattering explosion occurred in Jinghong City, Yunnan. A five-story building had its foundations blown out and swayed precariously before it came crashing down.

It was a disaster. More than fifty of the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s little brothers were buried in an instant; it happened during the day, and had it been at night, perhaps more people would have been trapped underneath. Not long after the building collapsed, a group of Thirteen Eagles members rushed out, each brandishing a machine gun, catching the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s little brothers entirely off-guard.

"Shit, the Thirteen Eagles are here!" The little brothers of the Heavenly Reversal Gang were suddenly dumbfounded.

"Fight them, these damn dogs were beaten and ran away, why have they come back?" The little brothers of the Heavenly Reversal Gang were all shocked.

As a result, both sides engaged in a fierce battle. Shootouts in Jinghong City were common since it was a remote city frequented by drug traffickers, who often engaged in shootouts among themselves. However, a large-scale shootout like this was extremely rare. So, people had gotten used to it. They just closed their homes and shops and stayed away from the chaos.

"Brothers, charge with me!" The Heavenly Reversal Gang didn’t have many firearms, just over a dozen guns, with most of their firearms concentrated in the Northeast and the Northwest. With Yao Yue’s support in the Southwest, they barely had any firearms or ammunition.

And it was precisely because of this that the Southwest faced a disastrous defeat. Over two hundred men armed with axes charged forward only to be immediately mowed down by rounds of bullets. The little brothers suffered heavy casualties. Da Niu, a kid personally trained by Li Tieniu, was full of brute strength. Gritting his teeth and holding a machine gun, he charged forward, bellowing, "Fuck you bastards, I’m going to kill you all!"

The other side was well-armed, even with grenades. The grenades fell from the sky, feeling just like a conventional battlefield.

"Brother Niu, we can’t hold on, we’ve got to retreat!" The little brothers gritted their teeth, "If we keep this up, we’re going to be wiped out!"

"We can’t retreat even if we’re wiped out." Da Niu gritted his teeth, "Otherwise, how can I report back to Big Brother?"

"If we keep the green hills, we won’t worry about firewood!" The little brothers immediately tried to persuade him.

In the end, the Heavenly Reversal Gang retreated. The little brothers withdrew from Jinghong one by one. Over three hundred people retreated from Jinghong City, and although there were also over three hundred people in Mongla, those men hadn’t suffered any harm. Hearing of the attack on Jinghong, they immediately began to prepare for the rescue. However, the rescue was abruptly put on hold because the situation in Jinghong had collapsed so quickly, leading to a complete rout and a humiliating escape.

Several trucks, heavily laden with the wounded little brothers, began their flight. From Jinghong, they sped south, planning to pass through Mongla and then enter Myanmar. The sparse road-side leaves and withering blossoms mocked the defeated troops as they passed by. Taking a deep breath, Da Niu could no longer bear to look at the scenery outside the window; it was too bleak.

The vehicles traveled on muddy roads, with the thundering sound of the engines constantly venting something.

Suddenly, Da Niu felt the same desolation that Guan Yu must have felt during his retreat from Jinghong. The Heavenly Reversal Gang, once so imposing across the entire Mainland of China, was almost without an equal. Yet, this glory was as fleeting as a dusk-blooming cereus, like a splendid firework. Just after leaving a beautiful impression, it now became a memory of the past. Jianghuai City, Tongzhou City, the Northeast, the Southwest... all had fallen.

The Heavenly Reversal Gang had suddenly become a thing of the past, and the original beauty was also forgotten.

The Northwest faced a similarly miserable fate. Zhang Bufen and his god-grandfather were playing a big game, driving the Heavenly Reversal Gang out of China, banishing all hope across the great expanse of the country.

At that moment, in the Capital, Zhang Bufen was strutting around with the so-called Four Young Masters of the Capital. Lately, Zhang Bufen was flying high, having driven the Heavenly Reversal Gang out of China and also gotten cozy with the Four Young Masters of the Capital. These four, although idle and without much authority, had powerful fathers – something inconceivable to Zhang Bufen before.

"Bufen, the Heavenly Reversal Gang is almost cleaned out!" Zhang Bufen’s god-grandfather said with a chuckle.

"Grandfather, not yet, the Northwest and Shanghai, we still have those places!" Zhang Bufen quickly replied with a smile.

"Hehe, take things step by step. Now that most of the power of the Heavenly Reversal Gang has been wiped out, with only these two places left, they can hardly turn the tide, right?" The grandfather laughed.

"Yes, grandfather, you’re right!" Zhang Bufen nodded hastily.

"In the future, stop wandering around. I’ve decided to send you to the army for some proper discipline!" The grandfather said with a light smile.

Zhang Bufen was stunned on the spot, thinking, shit, being sent to the army was like being sentenced to death. Joining the army, which meant extreme hardship; Zhang Bufen quickly shook his head and said, "Grandfather, let’s forget that. I’m simply not cut out for hardships!"

"And how could that be? A man must have strength; otherwise, how can he protect and serve his country?" The grandfather looked at Zhang Bufen.

"To protect and serve the country? Leave that to the soldiers, what does that have to do with me?" Zhang Bufen quickly shook his head. This statement angered the old man half to death. He glared at Zhang Bufen and said, "To protect and serve the country is every citizen’s duty. How can you say you have no responsibility? No one is exempt from this obligation!"
