Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 458 - 457: Who Says I Can’t Use a Gun?

"Ryan, when will they start following us?"

"I think it’s about time, probably in seven or eight days."

Indeed, Gu Xiaoqing wasn’t just here for revenge; she was playing a game called ’luring the snake out of its hole’!

"How ready are our people?"

Ryan replied, "No problem, don’t worry. The weapons have been smuggled in with the building materials, and the fortifications have been set up here. Three or four more days, and everything will be completely ready."

Gu Xiaoqing wasn’t in Gu Family Village for sightseeing. Her primary reason for being here was to settle old scores, to show these villagers something fierce, to ensure they don’t become too smug. More importantly, she designated this place as a battlefield.

This area is remote, and separated by a river from Gu Family Village, making it an ideal outdoor battlefield.

Additionally, the open field of vision on the farmland, and the fact that Gu Xiaoqing’s employees were all retired elite soldiers, made it suitable for them to engage in a direct confrontation.

On the contrary, most of the opponent’s people were gang members without team combat experience. Those with experience used to roam within the Hong Kong city, engaging in assassinations and such.

This group prefers stirring up trouble.

In battle here, Ryan’s men can definitely fight three opponents per person, turning the enemy into a group of third-rate mercenaries unable to withstand Ryan’s team’s direct assault.

Five days later, everything was in place. During the day, it seemed like construction work, and although people in Gu Family Village wanted to make things difficult for Gu Xiaoqing’s camp, the thought of them having guns kept them away.

At night, Ryan began to strategize and prepare various contingency plans.

On the sixth night, the sound of motorcycles and trucks poured in.

Evidently, the enemy has arrived!

Ryan didn’t even need night vision goggles to see the large group of enemy forces.

"Boss, they’re all here. 136 people in total, presumably all of Butcher’s men." Ryan estimated.

"Hmm, they’re seven times our number, are you sure there won’t be any issues?"

Ryan nodded and responded, "Rest assured, boss. If this were a big city, mixed with all sorts of people, defending against them would be nearly impossible. But here, we are confident! After all, they’re just a bunch of gang members."

Gu Xiaoqing sat in the cabin, calmly picked up the freshly boiled teapot, and made herself a cup of tea at the small table in front of her.

She quietly watched the rising white smoke and heard the sound of an explosion.

Then, the rapid fire of gunshots followed, louder than fireworks. However, she was used to it, having come through this from the United States, she was no longer afraid.

After drinking a cup of tea, Gu Xiaoqing poured herself another.

By now, many sounds of participation could be heard from Gu Family Village, fearing that no one dared to peek out to see what was going on.

Even some elderly people thought the Japanese invaders had returned!

The battle started to die down after about half an hour.

Ryan’s side almost completely triumphed, with no match for the opponents even though they had guns. The people on Ryan’s side were all skilled marksmen, and with the prior preparations and detailed plans, defeating these gang members was as easy as adults playing with children.

Knock, knock, knock!

"Boss, pretty much resolved, what’s left is the finishing touches."

"Come in."

Gu Xiaoqing said, holding her cup of tea.

At that moment, as the door opened, a shadow suddenly jumped down from the top of the cabin.

Gu Xiaoqing quickly raised her gun towards the front.

Ryan’s neck was held by a short knife, which shocked Ryan. He coldly asked, "When did you start tailing me?"

"Miss Gu, if you put down your gun, I think we can have a decent talk."

The man ignored Ryan and said with a slight smile.

He didn’t kill Ryan because he needed Ryan as a shield. Without Ryan, Gu Xiaoqing would surely open fire immediately.

The gunshots would certainly attract Gu Xiaoqing’s people, leading to a total failure of his plan to capture her alive.

He had already sacrificed a lot of equipment and weapons, and his brothers, how could he fail here?!

"Put down the gun, Ryan’s life will be over."

Gu Xiaoqing replied calmly.

The opponent instantly fell silent, indeed the one who had taken them down like dogs was not to be underestimated. Such meticulous calculations were terrifying.

He even wondered if Gu Xiaoqing had some mind-reading technique or special powers.

Although he knew such things were nonsense, Gu Xiaoqing was merely a top expert at understanding human psychology.

"You are the Butcher?"

Gu Xiaoqing asked with a raised gun.

After a moment of silence, the opponent replied, "Indeed, Miss Gu, that someone like me would have my name reach your ears truly is an honor."

"You’re impressive, even at this point, you still intend to fulfill your boss’s mission."

Despite the near-total annihilation outside and the cries of agony, this man’s resolve to complete his task hadn’t wavered.

The Butcher’s will was astonishingly firm. People like him are usually very loyal, but when their loyalty is not towards you, they become troublesome opponents.

The Butcher felt he shouldn’t follow where Gu Xiaoqing was steering the conversation. He sneered, "Miss Gu, I think your arm must be tired. You wouldn’t shoot accurately!"

"Oh? Is that so?"

Gu Xiaoqing smiled, "You can try."

"You should know, with my people behind in front of you, that shot definitely won’t hit me..."

"That’s why I’m saying..."

Before Gu Xiaoqing finished her sentence, she suddenly swung her arm outward as the gunshot exploded.

Thump!

Ryan’s raised hands finally fell, then he wryly commented to Gu Xiaoqing, "Miss, every time you do this, I end up in a cold sweat."

"If you didn’t sacrifice a little, he probably would’ve hidden in that corpse and escaped."

Gu Xiaoqing’s gun dropped to the ground. To pursue the ultimate curve and precision of Bend Gun Skill, she had dislocated her arm just now.

"Alas, my physical condition is too poor."

Gu Xiaoqing commented, looking at the Butcher, shot in the temple, "So, how does it feel now?"

Ryan replied awkwardly, "If you had a good physique, even the Blood Rose wouldn’t be worthy to carry your shoes, how are us men supposed to survive?"

Ryan and Lang were among the few who knew about Gu Xiaoqing’s godly marksmanship, as Gu Xiaoqing realized that one must rely on oneself.

However, her own physique was terribly weak; combat wasn’t her strong suit. Apart from some Aikido moves to deal with perverts, she focused her efforts on firearms.
