Urban Super Soldier King-Chapter 528: Reached An Agreement on Cooperation
Chapter 528: Chapter 528: Reached An Agreement on Cooperation
This was a standoff between Tie Zhuzi and Pan Wenjie, and even more so, a clash between Xiang Yu and Miao Honglei.
Xiang Yu and Miao Honglei locked eyes with each other, neither of them speaking a word, as an eerie silence suddenly fell over the surroundings. No one could predict what would happen next.
Although Pan Wenjie had his gun’s safety off and was pointing it at Xiang Yu, he didn’t dare to shoot without Miao Honglei’s order, so he could only keep it aimed.
"Your brother is about to get killed, what are you going to do?" Miao Honglei ultimately couldn’t help but speak up.
"He won’t die," Xiang Yu replied confidently.
"Oh?" Miao Honglei’s interest was piqued, and then he smirked and said, "With just one command from me, his head will bloom right away, do you believe that?"
Xiang Yu smiled, shook his head, and then made a hand gesture. Just as Miao Honglei failed to understand Xiang Yu’s actions, suddenly there was a ’puff’ from afar, and at the same time, Pan Wenjie’s gun was struck hard and fell to the ground.
Nobody here was a fool; they all instinctively took a half-step back. Miao Honglei’s face turned ashen.
Clearly, there was a sniper outside, and the bullet hit the handgun with precision, showcasing the exquisite marksmanship. If that bullet had hit Miao Honglei’s head just now, he would already be dead. "Many things, when you think you are in full control, are actually quite the opposite; perhaps you have overlooked a lot," Xiang Yu said calmly, sitting there.
It was then that Miao Honglei suddenly remembered something; Xiang Yu was usually accompanied by three people, but today only two had come. Miao Honglei sat there for a full two minutes before the color slowly returned to his face.
"What do you want to do?" Miao Honglei asked, looking at Xiang Yu.
"Give me forty men, all armed, under my command," Xiang Yu sat up straight, looking directly at Miao Honglei.
"No way. Give you forty men, and there’s no telling what you’d do with them," Pan Wenjie was the first to object.
Only then did Xiang Yu slowly turn his head to look at Pan Wenjie and said, "It’s not your place to speak here, get lost." This was the first time Xiang Yu had addressed Pan Wenjie since he had arrived.
Pan Wenjie was taken aback, unable to react immediately. In his perception, Xiang Yu had always been someone he could bully. By the time Pan Wenjie came to his senses, he reached for his gun, only to remember it had fallen to the ground.
Xiang Yu snorted coldly, then grabbed Pan Wenjie by the collar, "I told you to get lost, did you hear me?"
Xiang Yu’s gaze was icy cold, as if it held a black hole that drew people into its depths.
Pan Wenjie looked lost for a moment, as if he had entered a kind of unconscious state.
After speaking, Xiang Yu pushed Pan Wenjie away and turned to Miao Honglei, "Give me the men, and I guarantee I’ll clear the path for you."
Miao Honglei’s mind was rapidly processing the situation. If he agreed to Xiang Yu’s terms and gave him the men, it would be like joining the battle, and his opponent would be Ding Yongwei.
Ding Yongwei’s power as it displayed now was far above Miao Honglei’s. It could be said that Miao Honglei and Ding Yongwei were not on the same level at all.
If they didn’t join the battle and Ding Yongwei was taken out by the boss, that would be one thing, but if Ding Yongwei emerged victorious, he would certainly make a move on Miao Honglei.
In the end, Miao Honglei concluded that there was a possibility of victory if they joined the battle, but if they didn’t, they would sure face death later. Finally, he decided to cooperate with Xiang Yu to take down Ding Yongwei.
The key now was how they would cooperate. If they just gave Xiang Yu forty men as he requested, what would stop Xiang Yu from taking those forty men to do something else?
Xiang Yu seemed to have already discerned Miao Honglei’s concerns and thus said, "If you don’t feel at ease, you can personally join the action."
Miao Honglei looked up at Xiang Yu, thinking if he could bring his own brothers into the fray, it would naturally be beneficial, allowing for flexible coordination.
With force, Miao Honglei slapped the table and declared, "Let’s do this." It was as if he had made a huge decision.
Seeing Miao Honglei react this way, Xiang Yu wasn’t pleased but rather spoke with a serious face, "If you plan to lead the team yourself, you must remember one thing, follow my command in all actions."
Miao Honglei simply laughed, "Why should I follow your command?"
"Because I command better, I can lead our brothers to take down Ding Yongwei," Xiang Yu said with confidence, as if Ding Yongwei was already meat ready for the taking.
Miao Honglei laughed, then nodded, "No problem, you’ll command when the time comes."
Although Miao Honglei said this, he was never truly convinced. He had been a gang leader for some time, and he had always directed the operations smoothly and in an orderly fashion.
Xiang Yu was merely a street thug who had climbed the ranks step by step, and that too because of sheer luck; otherwise, he would have died somewhere unknown by now.
How could such a person understand command?
The only reason Miao Honglei agreed so readily was that he had his own plans. If they really managed to take down Ding Yongwei, he had other schemes in mind.
"When do you plan to make a move?" Miao Honglei asked.
"I will inform you when the time comes. Just gather your men for now," Xiang Yu replied emotionlessly.
Miao Honglei nodded vigorously, his heart already bursting with joy. Xiang Yu was nothing but a bumpkin street thug who had been a bodyguard leader for a few days and had started to get big ideas.
After observing that he had gotten an agreement, Xiang Yu then stood up, ready to leave. He had achieved his goal for the day and saw no reason to stay any longer.
"I’ll wait for your call," Miao Honglei said bluntly.
Xiang Yu nodded, said nothing more, and then turned to leave. Miao Honglei watched his departing figure and smiled knowingly.
When the time came, and he joined the fight with his own team, he was certain to give Xiang Yu a surprise. Standing beside him, Pan Wenjie was grinding his teeth in fury, saying nothing.
Pan Wenjie’s eyes were bloodshot, filled with hatred.
"Are you okay?" Miao Honglei felt Pan Wenjie’s emotional turbulence and turned to ask.
"I’m fine, big brother," Pan Wenjie calmed his emotions and took a deep breath before responding.
Miao Honglei didn’t pay much attention to Pan Wenjie. In his view, losing to Tie Zhuzi was not shameful nor a big deal. After all, victory and defeat were normal in warfare; there would always be a loser in a fight.
"Big brother, I’m going to rest," Pan Wenjie said, then directly left.
Miao Honglei didn’t bother with him and instead kept pondering his plan. If the plan succeeded, he would step onto a new stage in life, an exhilarating thought.
He wasn’t initially intending to do so, but it was Xiang Yu who inspired him and gave him the courage.
After Xiang Yu and Tie Zhuzi left the place, they hurried away. Xiao Xuan, who had been hiding, saw no one following and quickly caught up with Xiang Yu.
"Bro Yu, I don’t think Miao Honglei is trustworthy, could he go back on his word?" Miao Honglei asked.
Xiang Yu simply smiled mysteriously and didn’t say a word...
