Near noon, the steaming dumplings filled with pork and cabbage came out of the pot. Each veteran filled a big bowl and squatted at the root of a wall or under a big tree to eat with relish.
All times are good.”
“I haven’t eaten dumplings in more than ten years, but they are so delicious!”
Duan Chenglin, the military commander, stood at the door of the Zhongxiao Hall. Even though he was a tough man, after listening to the words of those veterans, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but moisten. He secretly sighed in his heart, the brothers have really suffered too much. If he hadn't joined the Huamen, this meal would not have happened.
There’s no telling when the dumplings will be available.
A veteran in his seventies ate up a whole bowl of dumplings, patted his belly with his hands, burped, and sighed: "It's so damn delicious. I'll die after eating this bowl of dumplings."
It won’t be a loss.”
A veteran next to him responded with a smile, "Old Xu, don't always think about death. The chief sect leader said that from now on he will take care of us and let everyone live a good life of rice, white flour and meat every day. We, a bunch of old buddies, are much better."
Live for decades and strive to live a long life."
"We all must bear in mind the kindness of the general sect master. He is such a good person. One cannot be without conscience and must know how to repay kindness..."
All the members of the 38th Army were grateful to Ximen Lang, the young general sect leader, and they were all secretly glad that the army had seized the opportunity to join the Huamen and start a new life.
The day passed quickly, and at night, Jiang Wei led two thousand members of the Huamen to sneak into the Jinchengtang camp and secretly stationed here, waiting for opportunities.
Three days later, when the Salin Group and the Nero Star Group gathered a large number of personnel to fight fiercely near the Xianghong Valley, two thousand members of the Huamen set out from the 38th Army station and launched an attack on the Salin Group's home base from the south. Another
On the one hand, Ye Jianfan, who was hiding in the jungle, suddenly appeared with more than a thousand men and attacked the same target from the north.
At this time, the main force of the Salin Group was near the Xianghong Valley, and there were about 2,000 people stationed in the territory. They were retreating steadily under the attack from two sides by more than 3,000 members of the Huamen.
The gunshots above the Golden Triangle were even more deafening and frightening.
According to Ximen Lang's wishes, not a single soldier of the Thirty-Eighth Army would be used in this battle. He could not bear to let these former Kuomintang veterans fight again. However, although these soldiers are old, they are all bloody.
Unwilling to obey their elders, they collectively petitioned for war and asked the military commander to lead them on an expedition.
Duan Chenglin also meant the same thing. He felt that if he failed to make any achievements after the recruitment, he could not help but feel guilty. He asked the chief sect leader three times and five times to let him lead many of his subordinates to assist the main force of the Hua sect in launching an attack.
Ximenlang originally strongly disagreed, but could not withstand Duan Chenglin's repeated requests. After careful consideration, he had to assign a task to these veterans, asking them to ambush in the Yanmulus Forest to the west of the Salin Group's headquarters. If the other side's deserters passed by, they would be ambushed.
.
In the battle in the Xianghong Valley, the Salin Group originally had the upper hand. However, when their base was attacked and threatened, the capable general Kaempfer hurriedly led his team to retreat. As a result, the situation changed.
When Tian Kuba, the leader of the Nero Star Group, learned that the Kuomintang's 38th Army had launched a sudden attack on the Salin Group's headquarters, he was overjoyed and led his team to pursue the victory.
The battle lasted for several days, and the Salin Group suffered heavy losses from the front and back, severely weakening its vitality. The leader, Salin, was escorted by nearly a thousand members including Kaempferol and fled to the west of the Yanmulus Forest. As soon as he arrived here, gunshots rang out in the forest.
, dense bullets shot out like raindrops.
In an instant, hundreds of militants from the Salin group were hit by bullets and fell down screaming. Salin and others behind him hurriedly fell to the ground. He cursed angrily: "Damn, why are there so many people in the woods?"
Ambush, damn it...Brothers, give me a good beating and kill all those bastards. Let's go into the forest and leave..." He knew in his heart that there were strong pursuers chasing after him. At the moment, they only had
This is the road that retreats into the deep forest.
The two sides began a fierce gun battle. In a panic, the militants of the Salin Group shot into the woods like headless flies. They didn't know how many people were inside because they didn't even see a single figure. They could only feel the overwhelming bullets.
Fly over.
The big drug lord Salin was anxious and shouted loudly: "Come here and wipe out all the enemies in the woods..."
Forced by this guy's power, hundreds of group members stood up and roared towards the woods, but it was tantamount to death. One after another was shot and fell down. The opponent's firepower was too fierce, and in an instant
, the Salin Group suffered more than 200 casualties, and the remaining 600 to 700 people were unable to rush forward and had to lie down again...
To make matters worse, more than 3,000 people from the Huamen caught up behind them and started frantically killing the deserters of the Salin Group. After more than ten minutes of fierce fighting, most of the militants of the Salin Group had been killed or injured, and only the drug lord Salin was around.
With less than a hundred people left, the situation was over.
In desperation, Salin had no choice but to surrender. After all, it was important to save his life. He kept the green hills and was not afraid of running out of firewood. He threw away his gun, took off his military uniform, took off his white shirt, stood up, and swayed back and forth. He was panicking.
shouted, "Don't shoot...Don't shoot, I surrender..."
A group of men also threw away their guns and emerged from the grass, raising their hands high with fear on their faces. Looking over, they saw a tall young man walking across the street, wearing a black robe, and behind him were
The dark crowd was densely packed, and they all had guns in their hands, with countless muzzles pointed at them.
In the woods behind, Duan Chenglin and many of his men walked out quickly wearing brand new camouflage uniforms and carrying various guns. They also pointed their guns at the militants of the Salin Group.
The young man in the robe was Ximen Lang of Huamen. Wang Tao, the team leader next to him, had angry eyes flashing, pointed his finger at it, and said in a hateful voice: "Brother Lang, that's this bastard. He is Salin. Back then,
The guy who beat up my brothers and me."
Ximen Lang nodded and said, "The time for revenge has come." He stood more than ten meters in front of Salin, with contempt flashing in his eyes, staring at the face of the enemy opposite, and said with a sneer: "
The number one person in the Golden Triangle, Mr. Salin, who is known as the Big Devil, didn’t expect that we would meet so soon.”
Salin stared at those young faces with doubtful eyes. He was frightened and at the same time secretly surprised. Who are these people? How come he has never seen them before? He forced himself to calm down and asked in a deep voice with a dark face: "Who are you?
