Chapter 560 - 553: Fallen into a Trap
Chapter 560: Chapter 553: Fallen into a Trap
Boss Qiao and the other subordinates were momentarily invigorated despite feeling disheartened, continuously firing their guns at the enemies outside, swapping to new firearms as soon as one was emptied. Sister Hua, who insisted on not going to the wine cellar, stayed by their side to reload their empty guns and occasionally firing a few shots herself.
A silent young man sat in a car outside, deeply dissatisfied with their failure to take control after so long. He spoke to a subordinate standing outside the vehicle, "Have half of them flank from behind, the others don’t matter, but He Sisi must be captured alive, and Qiao Zhenbang must die. Understood?"
"Yes!"
The subordinate respectfully acknowledged and walked towards the courtyard.
From her position in the attic, Sisi had a clear view of everything below. She noticed about a dozen men in black silently making their way to the back and immediately understood their plan.
Regrettably, without a mobile phone or walkie-talkie, she couldn’t warn Qiao Zhenbang below, and she couldn’t risk exposing herself.
She hoped that Qiao Zhenbang was smart enough to realize something was off outside.
It would be best if he could take the opportunity to shoot those men when they were least expecting it.
Sisi turned the gun in another direction, targeting and shooting the black-dressed men one by one.
However, the enemies were quick in their actions. Sisi only managed to shoot three or four of them before the rest reached the backyard. Cursing under her breath, Sisi had no choice but to put away the sniper rifle, grab another gun, and dash downstairs.
Night-blooming Jasmine Night Club
Indeed, the upper echelon of the New Dragon Association had gathered together. The extermination went smoothly, almost effortlessly. Boss Qiao personally shot and killed Boss Gao of the New Dragon Association. Seeing their leader dead, the other members immediately surrendered.
Only two high-ranking officials who had fought alongside Boss Gao refused to surrender. Although Boss Qiao admired their loyalty, these people could only meet their end, as keeping them alive would be a risk. So, he ordered his men to deal with them.
Tian Xinhua felt something was amiss. Wasn’t the New Dragon Association reputed to be one of the top three gangs in Hong Kong?
Why then were they eradicated so easily?
Was tonight’s operation too smooth?
"Xingbang, where did the information about the New Dragon Association’s meeting come from?" Tian Xinhua casually asked.
"It was from the Ju Yi Gang. They claimed they were too weak and few, so they gave this opportunity to the Yaoxing Gang. We just need to share some benefits with them afterwards," Qiao Xingbang said nonchalantly.
A strong unease rose in Tian Xinhua’s heart. Something was very wrong. Why would the Ju Yi Gang let such a prime opportunity go to the Yaoxing Gang?
Handing over their bite to someone else?
Tian Xinhua didn’t believe the weak and few story from the Ju Yi Gang. He regretted trusting the intelligence of Boss Qiao and others too much, not investigating further. He also wondered how Ah Nan and Du Du were doing.
"Something’s wrong, we need to go back immediately," Tian Xinhua said to Boss Qiao.
But just as he spoke, gunshots erupted outside, and the just-surrendered members of the New Dragon Association looked up joyously, exchanging glances.
Tian Xinhua, who had been watching them, knew something was wrong and shouted, "We’ve been tricked!"
He then drew his gun and rapidly fired at the kneeling men. Tian Xinhua was quick, and within minutes, before those men could react, they were dead by his gunfire.
Brother Li walked to the side of a deceased member of the New Dragon Association. He flipped the body over with his foot and saw the man holding a gun in his hand, although it was unclear where he had hidden it, having escaped their previous frisk.
"Damn it, definitely Shi Ban Yu from the Ju Yi Gang trying to backstab us, daring to ambush me from behind. I’ll wipe him out," Boss Qiao said furiously.
Tian Xinhua worried about Sisi and her son left at home and said to Boss Qiao: "We have to get back quickly, I’m worried they might attack our home."
After hearing this, Boss Qiao became worried too, previously he believed that Boss Shi respected the laws of Jianghu, but now he saw that Boss Shi was just a cunning scoundrel, lamenting that he hadn’t seen Shi Ban Yu’s true colors even after decades!
"Ah Li, Fei Zai, command the brothers to break out," Boss Qiao shouted to Brother Li and Brother Fei.
Tian Xinhua also rushed out; outside was a storm of bullets, like fireworks, indicating that the opponents were numerous, aiming to annihilate the Yaoxing Gang all at once!
Tian Xinhua grimly pondered for a moment, grabbed a submachine gun, found a strategic position, and fiercely began shooting at the people outside, hoping to wipe them out quickly and return to check on Sisi and Du Chao.
Sisi managed to only reach the stairwell; the firepower outside was too intense, making it impossible for her to meet up with those from the Qiao Zhenbang side. Their side was left with only five combat-effective members, the rest were seriously injured but not life-threatening, including Qiao Zhenbang who was also shot in the shoulder.
If they couldn’t hold out any longer, everyone might end up stuck here.
At this moment, there were about fifteen or sixteen enemies outside, three times their number, and these people were even armed with submachine guns, raining bullets so incessantly that they couldn’t even return fire. It was clear they were about to breach.
Continuing like this wasn’t a solution, once they broke in, it would definitely be a death trap.
Sisi gritted her teeth, took a grenade from the backpack behind her, and carefully crawled forward, avoiding the bullets.
A sharp pain surged through her left arm, turning her vision black with pain. Damn it, this trip to Hong Kong really was cursed, the same arm got shot twice!
Eventually, she crawled to the porch below the backyard window. Sisi lay there; the enemy was very close, and she could even feel the breath of the people outside.
Enduring the pain in her left arm, Sisi pulled the pin of the grenade, counted from one to five as Luo Datou had taught her, then threw the grenade out the window with force, and immediately lay down and covered her ears.
"Bang!"
A thunderclap erupted, shaking the entire house, and the crystal chandelier in the living room swayed continuously.
The gunfire outside temporarily ceased; it seemed the grenade was effective. Qiao Zhenbang regretted not having brought a few grenades down earlier.
"Keep going!"
Sisi threw another grenade to Qiao Zhenbang, who caught it and looked out from the window. There were about six or seven people in the front yard, though too dispersed for a grenade to take them all out at once.
Whatever, any that can be blown up are worth it!
Qiao Zhenbang gritted his teeth, pulled the pin, and threw the grenade where there were more people, just hoping to kill as many as possible.
Another thunderclap, Sisi worried that the villa might actually collapse from the blasts.
The young man’s car outside was nearly overturned by the two loud explosions, who would have thought that this Boss Qiao would have such high-grade weapons and ammo at home?
Today was indeed a miscalculation!
Qiao Zhenbang chuckled secretly: This ammunition was something this young master began collecting since high school, no one knows about this secret arsenal of mine!
