Urban Super Soldier King - Chapter 1918 - 2019: Unexpected Reinforcements
"Your brigade leader Lieyun is dead, surrender now. If you surrender, we won’t kill you. Crossing us, Wolf Fang, won’t end well for you," Tie Zhuzi shouted, along with others.
At this moment, the sporadic gunfire began to cease, and everyone perked up their ears to listen.
From the rear, Xiao Xuan heard Tie Zhuzi’s shouts and gave a helpless smile.
Mentioning Wolf Fang at this time could indeed have an unexpected effect.
The base was also silent; just before, Tie Zhuzi had led the squad in a bombardment, showcasing Xiang Yu’s power to them.
"I’ll give you ten more minutes. If you haven’t decided by then, don’t blame us for being rude. What we did just now was just a trial, but soon we’ll use heavy weapons," Tie Zhuzi shouted.
He was not new to this kind of trickery; one could say he had mastered it.
It was quiet all around, and Xiang Yu stood in front, confidently smiling.
This group was already leaderless and had lost their fighting spirit. As long as they crushed their spirits, taking them down was not a problem.
Everyone is afraid of death; that’s their weakness.
Two minutes passed, and suddenly someone in the base shouted, "If we surrender, you must ensure all our safety."
"No problem, as long as you surrender, we absolutely will not kill you, and we’ll even give you funds to go home," Tie Zhuzi casually said.
Whatever the situation, tricking them first was the priority; as for what to do with them later, that wasn’t his concern. Things might get messy.
"We’ll consider it, give us a bit more time," someone shouted.
"Seven more minutes," Tie Zhuzi shouted.
As negotiations were ongoing between the two sides, someone hurriedly came to Xiang Yu and said, "Sir, a unit is heading this way."
Xiang Yu was startled upon hearing this and asked, "How many people?"
"I’m not sure, but there are many convoys, and I saw a metal beast in the center; it should be a tank," the person said, eyes filled with fear.
Though they had followed Xiang Yu and formed an organization, they had never seen a tank before.
"The reinforcements really came quickly," Xiang Yu muttered and then said, "Withdraw, quickly notify the brothers to retreat."
Reluctantly, the person said, "Sir, we’ll have it in a few more minutes."
"None of that is important; the brothers’ lives are what matters most, retreat," Xiang Yu said decisively.
He wasn’t aiming to occupy this city. After all, Sun City was under construction and already consumed too much of his energy. If he took this city, it would be biting off more than he could chew.
Now that Lieyun was dead and they were leaderless, Xiang Yu had vented his anger, and the rest wasn’t important anymore.
Receiving Xiang Yu’s order to retreat, the City Guard Army quickly withdrew from their positions.
Tie Zhuzi also retreated, somewhat unwillingly saying, "Damn, we were so close to taking it."
Xiang Yu laughed, patting his shoulder, "Don’t be anxious, we weren’t planning on taking it anyway." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
As they prepared to withdraw, Xiang Yu’s phone rang. He looked and saw it was Wang Qian calling.
"What’s up?" Xiang Yu asked straightforwardly.
"Xiang Yu, why are you so reckless? I’ve told you not to act hastily," Wang Qian said with some reproach.
"If I didn’t teach them a lesson after hurting my brothers, they might think I’m weak," Xiang Yu replied with a faint smile.
"Do you know your actions have alerted Forest Wolf and COM? They are sending people here," Wang Qian said.
"That’s not my problem, as long as they don’t interfere with my Sun City," Xiang Yu said in a cheeky tone.
"You’re still the same," Wang Qian said helplessly. "Your Sun City is so poor that no one cares about it, so you can relax. No one wants it."
"That’s the best; I’ll hide inside for some peace," Xiang Yu said casually.
Wang Qian had no choice but to smile lightly, "How’s the situation over there?"
"We were almost done fighting, but a new unit came, we are about to retreat," Xiang Yu admitted.
"Almost done fighting? Can you capture Lieyun’s base?" Wang Qian asked skeptically.
Wang Qian understood Lieyun’s forces well, even though they were newly established, they were far stronger than Xiang Yu’s.
Moreover, this was Lieyun City, Lieyun’s base, where they not only had geographical advantages but also dominated the atmosphere with more morale.
Wang Qian didn’t believe Xiang Yu was close to capturing it.
"It’s simple, capture the general to capture the army. I killed their leader, and they’re done for," Xiang Yu explained.
"What?" Wang Qian was shocked, her mouth agape, "You killed Lieyun?"
"Yes, he’s already gone to the west," Xiang Yu stated flatly.
Wang Qian took a moment to process it and said, "Okay, you’re amazing. But don’t worry; those reinforcements you saw are ours."
"Your people?" Xiang Yu queried in confusion.
"I was worried you’d lose, so I sent people to support you. Additionally, other organizations are already in action; we need swift action. The longer it drags, the worse it gets," Wang Qian said.
Xiang Yu felt much more at ease knowing it was Wolf Fang’s people, not enemies. However, he still had no interest in this city and was too lazy to invest more effort.
"You guys even have an iron tank, impressive," Xiang Yu joked.
Wang Qian laughed, "Having a tank is nothing, Forest Wolf and COM both have them; they’re just very well hidden."
"In that case, I’ll leave it to you, we’re withdrawing. When the big forces move, it’s best for us to stay out of the way," Xiang Yu joked.
Wang Qian felt speechless and then said, "Weren’t you about to capture it? You take it, we’ll cheer you on."
"No, I have no plans for this city, nothing gained from taking it, better leave it to you. If you don’t want it either, then withdraw. We’re preparing to withdraw," Xiang Yu said candidly.
Originally, they could have taken it, but with Wolf Fang involved, Xiang Yu lost interest.
Moreover, Xiao Xuan and Tie Zhuzi had already brought their brothers back, returning wouldn’t be easy.
Additionally, Xiang Yu considered that the apparent negotiation in the base might actually be a stalling tactic waiting for reinforcements.
Once the reinforcements arrived, they might clash with them.
Xiang Yu didn’t want to risk his brothers’ lives; leaving was the best choice. Furthermore, the enemy didn’t know their identity.
Tie Zhuzi had claimed they were Wolf Fang, the enemy must loathe Wolf Fang and had no connection with them.
"You’re ruthless," Wang Qian chuckled. "Alright, since you’re retreating, we’ll come in; your people can withdraw."
