From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 501
Chapter 501 Defeat Hongshan Town
A few calm days passed in a flash, Even though the Tang Clan was embarrassed by the “protection fee” incident and even shot two consorts of officers in public under Commander Wang’s fury, it was as if they had forgotten Chen Guangda, the mastermind behind the scenes. Not only did they not care about his growing power, they did not even fight for Sanshui Street, which was gradually losing control.
Unfortunately, Chen Guangda was not an idiot, nor was he so naive as to think that the Tang Clan would not dare to cause trouble again. Anyone with a bit of brains could guess that the Tang Clan was holding their breath and preparing to amplify their moves. If they did not make a move, they would definitely be filled with thunder once they made a move. They would definitely not give him any chance to turn around.
But it’s cheaper than Big Eyed Xia’s little hoof, Little Hoof was now nicknamed the Big Eyed Devil Woman, and she was making waves in Sanshui Street every day. She relied on her strong men to fight against the local tycoons and divide the land all day long, but she also attracted many poor people to work with her. For a time, the limelight had even overshadowed the Black Wind Army, almost turning them from the Great Xia Gang into the Great Xia Army.
“Boom ~”
A bolt of lightning suddenly cut through the night sky. Bean-sized raindrops instantly poured down, Chen Guangda walked directly to the window and silently looked outside. On the sofa, the Tan family’s mother and daughter were quietly playing checkers. Ever since they were beaten by Big Eyed Xia Hai, Big Butt Tan was completely dead and honest. Only occasionally would she discover from her unintentional gaze that the little girl was actually not willing to be mediocre.
“Brother Guang! On the second floor of the grocery store opposite you, there are two people looking at you with binoculars. These two people have been staying there all day. I’m afraid they’re observing your movements …”
Huang Zhong Zhen’s voice suddenly rang out from the walkie-talkie on the table. This brat was now in charge of the entire internal security system. Not only did he connect their walkie-talkies with the LAN, he even expanded them to the extent that the entire Coiling Dragon Town could receive them. He no longer had to share the same channel with some messy people.
“You still need to improve your business ability, don’t you think that the bake seller is also very strange …”
Chen Guangda picked up the walkie-talkie and said calmly, These few days, he was already used to being followed and monitored. The Tang Clan would definitely not open and close a big battle with him, but they would definitely secretly look for an opportunity to attack. However, after he finished speaking, he directly opened the window and actually looked across the Coiling Dragon Lake in the face of the heavy rain. There was a long line of carriages heading towards him.
“Fatty! Call a few brothers and follow me to the city gate. I’m afraid the people from the East and West armies have returned …”
Chen Guangda shouted to the walkie-talkie before turning around and leaving the door. It had been almost half a month since the people from the East and West armies had left the door, but they had been like a group that had been annihilated. It wasn’t until the former Heavenly King Commander had simply said two words to him-not dead! However, Chen Guangda looked at the imposing appearance of the convoy. He was afraid that not only did nothing big happen to them, they might even have gotten a lot of votes.
Chen Guangda braved the heavy rain and walked towards the bridge at the center of the lake. There were more than a dozen valiant subordinates following behind. The gate on the bridge was normally closed. The soldiers stationed there were all from Commander Wang’s direct guard camp. They would only open the gate and collect taxes when the convoy carrying supplies entered. Therefore, the citizens of Coiling Dragon Town liked to call this place the Gate of Wealth.
“Haha ~ Your nose is really sharp. You actually came earlier than me. You can’t wait to receive the reward, right?”
A bulletproof version of the Dongfeng warrior suddenly stopped at the side. Commander Wang laughed as he walked down from above. However, Chen Guangda shrugged his shoulders and helplessly said, “What the hell am I rewarded for? It’s not bad that 30 of the 300 cannon fodder I sent out are left. Besides, Shang Jinzhong has also placed people in my team. Even if someone is alive, they probably won’t be mine!”
“You’re trying to probe me, aren’t you? But even if Shang Jinzhong really sends someone to you, it’s only natural. Who in Coiling Dragon Town isn’t guarding against you right now?”
Commander Wang laughed heartily. It seemed that they were quite satisfied with his ability to mess around. However, a bulletproof dash followed closely behind. The Ninth Princess directly pulled her father out of the car. The two of them acted as if they hadn’t seen Chen Guangda at all. After pretending to be polite to Commander Wang, they stood behind the God of Wealth Gate and looked forward to it.
“You have quite a lot of tricks. You actually sent your little wife to visit your territory. Aren’t you afraid that no one will warm your bed if I kill her?”
The Ninth Princess suddenly sneered and looked at Chen Guangda. I guess I’ve already figured out the details of Big Eyed Sister a few days ago. However, Chen Guangda shrugged his shoulders and said, “Big Eyed Xia and I have nothing to do with each other. Now that her wings have hardened, she doesn’t look down on me at all. I was also squeezed out of Sanshui Street by her. I originally planned to take Sanshui Street as your birthday present the day after tomorrow, but now I can only think of another way!”
“You know my birthday …”
The Ninth Princess looked at him strangely. However, Chen Guangda said seriously, “Don’t make me sound so heartless. Even if we are just cannon friends, we are still friends. I have never forgotten you in my heart. How about I give you Dragon Tail Street? Although there isn’t much oil and water there, it’s better than the scenery. If you’re free, you can go boating on the lake!”
“Cut the crap. If you really want me, come and do it with me. I’ll make you the Tang family’s prince-in-law …”
The Ninth Princess snorted arrogantly. She knew that Chen Guangda was joking around. However, the long-dragon convoy had already arrived at the bridge. Commander Wang and Tang Jiu hurriedly greeted her. However, Chen Guangda suddenly pulled the Ninth Princess and whispered, “Are you competing with your third brother for the position of Patriarch? If you want to ascend, I can help you!”
“What kind of tricks do you want to play? Do you want to see us fight inside?”
The Ninth Princess looked at him with a frosty expression. Chen Guangda shook his head and whispered, “You are you, the Tang Family is the Tang Family. I want to help you, not the Tang Family. If the Tang Family wants to change its owner, I will definitely hope that you can step onto the stage. This time, I have absolutely no selfishness. I just don’t want to see you die with this family!”
“Hmph ~ You’re so arrogant. Commander Wang doesn’t even dare to say that …”
The Ninth Princess shook off Chen Guangda’s hand. Chen Guangda directly strode forward to stand beside her father. He could only sigh and silently walk over. Following that, he saw the convoy stop at the gate. The leading cars immediately began to jump down one after another. However, who would have thought that the dozens of people were all from the Western City Army, and none from the Eastern City Army.
“Report to Commander! Task … failed, Commander please punish …”
Tang San walked up and bowed in dismay. It could be seen that he was truly depressed. Although their convoy had gained quite a lot, their members were basically in a sorry state. The military card behind them was even filled with wounded people. Only then did the soldiers of the Dongcheng Army climb out of the car. The Shang Jinzhong that was supported had a bloody scab on his face, and even a bloody gauze was wrapped around his forehead.
Commander Wang’s old face instantly darkened like the bottom of a pot. He loudly questioned, “What exactly is going on? Three days ago, you sent someone back to say that the casualties weren’t serious. It was almost a huge victory. But I think you guys are going to cancel the system now. Who exactly is lying about the military intelligence?”
“Commander! No one lied about military intelligence. It was already six days ago when we sent out our liaison troops. At that time, we just took down Hong Shan Town and were resting. However, I underestimated the situation in the barracks. It directly caused us to suffer heavy casualties …”
Shang Jinzhong walked up with a sad face. Originally, he had brought out nearly two reinforcements, but now, the total number of defeated generals was probably less than a hundred. Even if Western City Army’s situation was slightly better, it was still very limited. Both sides had suffered more than half of the casualties. On the other hand, Chen Guangda’s death squad did not seem to have seen many people die. They were actually talking and laughing while sitting in their cars.
“Holy shit! What’s going on …”
Chen Guangda looked ahead in shock. Although he had tried his best to train these rookies, it was impossible for him to become an elite teacher in half a month. He had never thought that these people would come back alive, so he hurriedly waved to Buttface in the car and asked in a low voice, “What happened? Didn’t they let you take the lead? How could there be so many people alive?”
“We did! We are the main force of the army, but we followed your instructions and rushed into the woods after the shooting range. They also have no way to deal with us …”
Buttface rubbed his hands and laughed wickedly. It had been a few days since he had seen someone so smart. Chen Guangda could only roll his eyes and ask what exactly happened to him. Unexpectedly, Buttface said in horror, “Your mother!” “That barracks is haunted by ghosts. There is not a single living corpse inside. Who knew that there were all ghost soldiers inside? Many people were scared mad!”
“Haunted?”
Chen Guangda looked at him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He had heard this kind of words countless times, but in the end, he didn’t even see a single strand of ghost hair. However, Buttface swore firmly, “How haunted!” Although we didn’t see them hiding in the woods, it’s still true that so many people died. They said that they encountered a lot of ghost soldiers in the barracks. They were all soldiers who died in vain and turned into fierce ghosts to seek revenge on them! ”
“Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t see it. Hurry up and get everyone to gather back home …”
Chen Guangda angrily waved his hand. He subconsciously glanced at the Ninth Princess who was not far away. The Ninth Princess stood there expressionlessly. Shang Jinzhong and the others were still telling the same ghost story to Commander Wang. However, they did not say that they were haunted. Instead, they said that they had encountered a group of intelligent living corpses. This could be said to be justified in the strange north.
‘Merchant Golden Bell …’
Chen Guangda put his hands behind his back and muttered softly, According to his guess, this should be a trick played by the Ninth Princess. In order to hack the weapons in the barracks, they deliberately fabricated such an absurd excuse. They even killed their own people to increase their credibility. However, if they really wanted to deceive the world, they had to satisfy one condition, that was to make Eastern City Army’s commander betray them.
“Alright! You guys go back and rest first. We’ll talk about this matter tomorrow morning …”
Commander Wang waved his hand coldly. The group of people had no choice but to climb into the car dejectedly and silently drive the car into Coiling Dragon Town like a stray dog. After a few words with Commander Wang, Tang Jiu left with the Ninth Princess.
“What do you think of this matter …”
Commander Wang suddenly stopped Chen Guangda, who was about to leave. The frost on his face was almost frozen. Chen Guangda shook his head and said, “What else can you do? The hole you dug for him has turned into a red envelope. Not only did the weapon become black for him, but even his trusted aides have defected to him. I told you that Shang Jinzhong’s ambition is not small. You shouldn’t trust him at all!”
“Ai ~ I’m afraid you still don’t know that Shang Jinzhong is my nephew …”
Commander Wang suddenly sighed in grief. Chen Guangda immediately widened his eyes in shock, but helplessly said, “If this batch of weapons really fall into the hands of the Ninth Princess, let alone me, a clown, even your Commander-in-Chief wang will be unlucky. You’d better think of a solution. At most, I’ll run away, but you’re really miserable!”
Chen Guangda shook his head and led the group back. He had a terrible headache right now, Although Commander Wang had many generals, he lacked the most important weapons. Once the Ninth Princess armed her private soldiers, she would have enough capital to challenge Commander Wang and even eliminate him. Once Commander Wang fell, he, Chen Guangda, would not have a good life. He would definitely be beaten up by the Ninth Princess to the point that he could not even recognize his mother.
