Chapter 67: Surprise Attack

  Back in the villa of Hua Xia City, Moscow. Ye Haodong and his entourage were accompanied by Bao Li to soak in a hot bath in the large bathtub of the villa.

  Ye Haodong noticed that Bao Li Gang had a new tattoo of a hunting knife pattern on his arm, and smiled to ask: "Is this the emblem of your newly formed Frost Blade Mercenaries?"

  Bao Li Gang: "Hmm, this is the mark of the squad leader. The mercenaries below have a tattoo in the shape of a military dagger."

  "Yeah, a cold blade, very good. This is one of the fast knives of our Ye Group. Gengzi, you've made a great contribution."

  Baoli hastily stood up and said solemnly: "Hao Dong Ge, today's achievements are all thanks to you. If it wasn't for you standing out and taking responsibility for the Er Xinzi incident back then, I..."

  Ye Haodong waved his hand to interrupt him: "We are brothers, don't talk about these useless things. We fight together under the sky, and we go to jail together. At that time, it was most suitable for me to go to that big prison, that's all." Ye Haodong pointed at Yang Junhu and laughed: "You should learn from Tiger on this point. I originally thought you were stupid and didn't talk much, but now I realize you just can't speak Chinese well so you don't talk much. Tiger is really not talkative, he used to be stupid so he didn't talk much, but now that his mind has opened up and his brain is clever, he still doesn't say these useless things like you."

  Baoli stared at Yang Junhu, who was as steady as a mountain, with a hint of surprise and asked after gazing at him for half a day: "I heard that you had another amazing encounter on this trip to Canada and your kung fu has improved a lot?"

  Tiger son indeed cherished words like gold, only nodding his head without speaking. Ye Haodong smiled evilly: "Don't know how powerful it is, anyway, the current Tiger Son encounters the prison of Sifang Dian's Gangzi, guaranteeing that he can easily defeat ten or eight."

  Baoli just listened and showed a disobedient look, his eyes wide open: "Hehe, Haodong brother, if you say so, I won't be convinced. Tiger has been busy these days, and I haven't been idle either. Otherwise, let's go up there and have a fight with Tiger to see who's better."

  After taking a bath, Yang Junhu and Bao Lijiang started fighting again, as a result, Zhangzi was beaten by Huzi until his nose was blue and his face was swollen.

  Ye Haodong laughed and stopped them from continuing to make trouble. Not long after, the doorman came to report that Lu Wending, the incense master of the Hongmen Hall in Moscow, had come to see him. Ye Haodong ordered someone to prepare tea and went out to greet him while instructing Bao Lijiang: "Know yourself and know your enemy, win every battle, we don't fight without a sure win. Now that the messenger from the Hongmen has arrived, I'll listen to the specific situation first. Tianpeng has been in their hands for two days, to prevent any unexpected events, you go organize our men, if the opportunity is right, we'll launch a surprise attack like the German army's blitzkrieg tonight!"

  Lu Wending, a middle-aged man in his thirties. Twelve years ago, he came to Russia and started from the flag master, now he is already the incense master, symbolizing the master of one side of the Hongmen. Twelve years ago, his incense person was exactly Situ Xinyi. Lin Shouyi had his contact information, and tactfully revealed the relationship between Ye Haodong and Situ Xinyi to him. Lu Wending didn't dare to delay and immediately went to visit in person. Ye Haodong welcomed him out, and when they met, Lu Wending said with a fist: "Hong Qi Yidian Tong Da Wu Hu Si Hai." Ye Haodong replied: "Zong Fa Wan Zhi Dao Chu San He Heng Tong." Lu Wending said again: "Zu Zong Hua Tou Can Shi Fei, Wei Zun Xiong Di Wei Zun Yi." Ye Haodong answered again: "Zhong Yi Tang Qian Wu Xiao Da, Bu Qi Fu Gui Bu Qi Pin." Lu Wending turned around and bowed down: "Little brother Lu Wending greets the outside mountain big brother." Ye Haodong hurriedly stepped forward to support him, laughing: "People outside the mountain only care about those who have no family or country inside the door. Lu Big Brother is not among them, right?" The two looked at each other and laughed, holding hands and entering the house.

  "When it comes to this 'Songzaiwo', they can be considered as having a deep-seated hatred towards our Chinese community. This group of old guys is greedy, disregards morality and has a strong xenophobic mentality. Many businesses in the mountain gate have been ruined by them, but the Hongmen's influence here has only developed over the past decade, and their strength is limited, so they can't deal with them yet. Otherwise, they would have eliminated this nail long ago. Their main base is on the other side of the Philip district, normally, the meat tickets should also be there." Lu Wending introduced the situation of 'Songzaiwo' with a look of indignation and hatred.

  The people who know you best are always your enemies, and this statement has been proven once again. Lu Wending not only knows the location of Songcaiwo's base but also knows that Songcaiwo is currently facing huge economic pressure internally. These bastards are short of money because since mid-September, Russia's crackdown on terrorism has reached an unprecedented level. They have no legitimate business as a source of income, and their underground dealings in gambling, drugs, and arms sales have been severely disrupted. As a result, they owe a lot of money to some powerful foreign forces, so they set their sights on wealthy foreign businessmen operating within Russia.

  Zhang Tianpeng had long been in their sights. There was a leader in their organization who had promised Liu Changsheng to help deal with Zhang Tianpeng. It just so happened that the organization was planning to kidnap a group of wealthy businessmen, and Zhang Tianpeng, who had already been targeted, became one of the first hostages.

  Ye Haodong listened to Lu Wending's introduction, his expression was solemn, and after thinking for a while, he asked: "Is it possible that we pay the money and they will keep their promise to release him?"

  Lu Wending shook his head and replied: "They would never leave behind any evidence of a crime, neither human nor material."

  Ye Haodong's fist heavily slammed on the table, cursing: "Damn it, there's no other way out, since that's the case, we can only resort to force. Inform Peng Cheng Trading and get in touch with Song Caiwo, tell them we're willing to pay a ransom for the person, let them name a price and set a time and place. Also, I want confirmation that the person is still alive."

  Lu Wending hesitated for a moment before asking: "Does Big Brother Wai Shan mean to make his move when the ransom is being handed over?"

  Yue Haodong burst out laughing: "Let's play a trick on the old devils, openly repairing the bridge while secretly crossing to Chen Cang. We'll use this method to stabilize them first, and then confirm that my friend is still alive. As long as we confirm that he's still alive, we'll organize our troops to attack his lair directly, leaving these turtle grandsons with an unforgettable nightmare."

  Song Caiwo's reply came back quickly. 300 million US dollars, accepted by UBS transfer. At the same time, through computer video, Zhang Tianpeng was proven to be still alive. Ye Haodong made a decisive decision and set off immediately!

  Lu Wending and two Hung Men brothers led the way, while Ye Haodong personally brought Yang Junhu and Bao Ligang to lead the crowd in a direct attack on Song Caiwo's old nest. At 8 pm, six cars stopped far away outside the private club where Song Caiwo's old nest was located. Ye Haodong sat in the car, hung up the phone, and narrowed his eyes as he watched Yang Junhu and Bao Ligang lead their respective teams to attack the club. At this time, it was the peak of the nightlife, and Song Caiwo's people were notorious for their lawlessness, so they never thought that someone would dare to come knocking at this hour, so they must have been lax in their defense. Yang Junhu's team had only Hu Zi and Ye Haodong's three personal bodyguards; as long as they let Hu Zi and the others go in and cause trouble first, Bao Ligang could lead his men to coordinate with them inside and out, turning the place upside down. Ye Haodong himself brought Lin Shou to take advantage of the chaos and fish in troubled waters, finding Zhang Tianpeng.

  Yang Junhu and three others were stopped at the door, and two bald security guards asked them for their membership cards. Hu Zi dodged closer to the two men, pinched the base of their ears, and they immediately fell limp to the ground. Hu Zi led Yang Junhu and three others straight into the building. At the same time, Bao Ligang had already loaded six rocket launchers with his mercenaries and was ready. The moment Yang Junhu's back disappeared from view, Ye Haodong and Lin Shouyi jumped out of the car, sending a signal to Bao Ligang while quickly approaching the clubhouse.

  The rocket projectile emitted a dazzling light and a huge explosion, blasting a large hole in the west wall of the villa. Ye Haodong quickly ran a few steps and drilled in, followed closely by Lin Shouyi. The villa was very large, and such a shockwave could not destroy it except for its intimidating momentum. The people inside the villa heard the commotion and got up one after another, while the Russian oligarchs who were playing happily were frightened and ran wildly.

  Yang Junhu and the other three quickly caught the attention of the thugs, who opened fire on them in the chaotic crowd. The four of them scattered and took cover while returning fire. Yang Junhu's marksmanship was not bad, but compared to the other three, he was far inferior. Those three were indeed top-notch gunmen trained by Situ Xinyi, with swift and deadly counterattacks that left no room for error. In the blink of an eye, they took down over a dozen thugs. The thugs from Songcaiwo were frightened and scrambled to find cover, no longer daring to show their heads.

  As soon as Bao Li led his men to charge in from the front door, the mercenaries charged in with assault rifles and started firing everywhere. The hastily responding Songcaiwo fighters were suppressed by the heavy fire, and the situation on site was very passive. The person in charge of Songcaiwo on the scene saw that things were not going well and ordered people to transfer the hostages to a safe place. Lu Wending noticed that several people from Songcaiwo's side quietly walked towards the back door, and he signaled to Ye Haodong, who was hiding among the gamblers. Ye Haodong and Lin Shou followed the men responsible for transferring the hostages to the backyard. As soon as the leader opened the iron gate, Lin Shou took out his Beretta pistol and fired several shots in a row, hitting the heads of the men and putting them down. Ye Haodong didn't have time to admire Lin Shou's accurate shooting skills and quickly rushed over to push open the iron gate and search for Zhang Tianpeng inside.
