Chapter 378: Attack of the Swarm Mercenary Group
Kade was much more enthusiastic, taking out good wine and pouring it for Ye Fan and Mengyao, with a blossoming smile.
He was more than welcoming to guests who bring money.
"I'll come to you again if there's business in the future." Ye Fan said calmly.
"No problem, no problem, I'll definitely help you." Kade promised.
After a few drinks, Ye Fan and Mengyao left, personally escorted by Kade.
After seeing Ye Fan and the others off, Kade's expression became uncertain. One of his subordinates hesitantly asked, "We've given our best weapons to outsiders, should we rob them halfway and take all the weapons back?"
"Fool, how many people do I have to send to their deaths? We just sold the good stuff, and if we act now, wouldn't it be self-destructive?" Kade grunted angrily.
"Then when should we act?" The subordinate followed up, saying, "As long as you give the word, I can prepare to take action."
"Act, what act? Those people are all tough guys, each possessing Huaxia martial arts. We would foolishly send ourselves to death. They handed over the ransom full amount without using force, and didn't even haggle over the price I set for the weapons, which was spending money without hesitation. This shows they know the rules here and gave me a lot of respect. Moreover, they showed skills and requested to buy more weapons; naturally, I took out the best stuff. If they weren't satisfied with my weapons, I'm afraid their attitude towards me would be different." Kade was a shrewd person, though not explicitly stating it, he deeply understood that Ye Fan and the others were not to be provoked. He dared not offend them.
Despite Ye Fan being polite, if he wasn't straightforward, the one who would die would be him.
Understanding this point made Kade act as prudently as possible.
"Then what should we do? Just swallow this bitterness?" the subordinate asked indignantly.
"Whether it's bitterness or fortune depends on your perspective." Kade pondered for a moment before confidently saying, "That group of people is from Huaxia, intending to open a business battlefield here. Not one of the Huaxia people who can establish themselves in Ba Country is ordinary. Perhaps, if we form good relations with them, the benefits for us will be great. If we become enemies, we might not even know how we die." Lоvе this stоry? Shоw yоur suppоrt оn М9VLЕМРYR.
"It's just a few people, we have so many people, and we're afraid of them," the subordinate said.
"You fool, do you know what fear is? Knowing when to act and when to retreat is the way to survival." Kade chastised.
He understood thoroughly that just with a flick of a coin from Ye Fan's hand, it could possess a speed and destructive power no less than a bullet. Based solely on this, Ye Fan was like a demon, absolutely not to be provoked, or it would be a path to certain death.
"As for Colonel George, how do we explain?" the subordinate shifted the topic to another concern.
"Just send the ransom. Colonel George, who sees money, won't care about the life and death of Tie Zhongshi's wife and daughter. He only cares about getting a satisfactory figure." Kade said.
Ye Fan and his party arrived in two cars and left in three.
The purchased weapons were in the cars, including the recoilless guns, directly installed inside, covered with a black cloth.
Ye Fan appreciated Kade's prudence, only someone like Kade could survive longer in Ba Country.
Half an hour later, three cars were passing through a wilderness area.
On a low forest path, more than ten vehicles were lying in ambush, and figures holding weapons revealed their presence.
"Target sighted, follow my order, prepare to attack." A burly man observed the target through binoculars and issued the command to those nearby.
"Yes." Over thirty people responded quietly, checked their ammunition, and readied themselves for action.
These people were members of the Beehive Mercenary Group. Zheng Jia Mei had suffered at the hands of Ye Fan and Mengyao, hence seeking revenge. Zheng Jia Mei thought Ye Fan and the others were unfamiliar here, yet dared to offend her, thus harboring murderous intent.
Soon, over thirty people followed Ye Fan and the others' three cars in more than ten vehicles.
Ye Fan and the others noticed the abnormality.
Tie Zhongshi's family of three showed a worried expression inside the car.
"Leave it to you to handle. The weapons we just bought can be tested for performance." Ye Fan smiled faintly.
Ye Fan and Mengyao were in one car, Du Xueqi and five other women were in the other two cars.
After the command from Ye Fan came through the earpiece, Du Xueqi and two women, eager for action, immediately moved, leaving their seats and transferring to the back compartment.
"The people in the three cars are our prey, leave none alive, we'll hunt them down slowly." The leader among the pursuers gave such a sinister order with a grin.
"Rat-a-tat!" The car that approached first fired symbolically, fiercely shooting at targets within sight.
The gunfire pierced the tranquility.
The intent to kill roared over the wilderness.
"It's time to make a move." The attacking Du Xueqi and two women exchanged a glance, then unveiled the black cloth covering the vehicle compartment, revealing a heavy machine gun and the recoilless gun.
The heavy machine gun began to roar, and amid spurting flames, lethal bullets pierced the void, fiercely shooting at the pursuing vehicles.
The recoilless gun trembled, accompanied by the whistling of shells, followed by violent explosions.
Du Xueqi and the two women, one controlled the heavy machine gun, the other managed the recoilless gun.
In the women's hands, deadly weapons seemed to possess life; whether bullets or shells appeared to have eyes, delivering devastating blows to the pursuing vehicles.
Under the impact of the shells, vehicles were destroyed, people died, explosions roared, and fiery waves rolled.
Under the angry barrage of bullets, the cars were penetrated, becoming tattered like sieves.
In just a moment, nearly half of the ten pursuing vehicles were destroyed.
"Damn it?"
"How could this be?"
"How is this possible?"
"Damn it, that's a heavy machine gun and recoilless gun."
"How can this be!"
"Only government and rebel forces use such weapons in battles; usually, you won't see such powerful weapons here; Ba Country's arms market doesn't sell these weapons."
"Even my Beehive Mercenary Group doesn't have weapons this powerful."
"How did they get these weapons?"
The pursuing vehicles, amidst chaos, with fearful hearts, dared not continue the chase.
Suddenly, under the strike of Du Xueqi and two women, they were stunned and terrified, realizing that charging forward meant assured death, with no chance of survival. They had taken others as prey, but in the presumed prey's hands, they were like ants, crushed to death in an instant.
