Chapter 146 Saint Paul

Saint Paul City, outskirts of the Huagong Association headquarters.

In an alley, Brigade Commander Yang frowned, staring at Wang Xiao in front of him, "So what do you want to do?"

"Old Yang, it's like this." Wang Xiao was sweating on his forehead, trying to persuade Brigade Commander Yang, "Our Wang family has been operating in Saint Paul City for many years. In addition to establishing armed departments, we are also responsible for contacting some local private armed forces. Therefore, we can also contact those hired by Huo Dongsheng. I'm currently trying to subvert two forces to bring out as many hostages as possible. After the hostages are released, we will continue to attack."

Brigade Commander Yang's face sank, and he replied urgently, "Are you kidding me? The surrounding situation is so complicated, and we're still waiting for you to send hostages?!"

"These are four or five hundred lives!" Wang Xiao was also anxious, "Among these people are our friends, relatives, and family members. I have no choice, I must do this!"

Brigade Commander Yang gritted his teeth, momentarily speechless.

"Give me half an hour... oh, no, twenty minutes, and I can definitely solve the problem." Wang Xiao continued, "If we successfully subvert them, it will be easier to attack."

The other party was standing on the moral high ground, which made Brigade Commander Yang very helpless. He pondered for a moment, and could only grit his teeth and say, "Deal with it as soon as possible, I don't have that much time to wait for you. Our people are all pressing up here, and Gustav's reinforcements will arrive at any time."

"Okay, okay, okay!" Wang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll go contact them now. Wait for me, you must wait for me!"

Wang Xiao immediately walked to the side, taking out his cell phone as he walked, and began to contact the other party, "You can just name your price! I only have one request, release the people as soon as possible..."

At the same time, on the streets of Saint Paul City.

Da Xiong seized several military vehicles, leading a team of about three hundred people, and was rushing to Wu Boxin's villa.

"You... you must hold on, we'll be there soon..." Da Xiong sat in the passenger seat, and contacted Wu Boxin by phone.

...

At the entrance of the alley, Brigade Commander Yang paced back and forth, occasionally glancing at his watch, his face full of anxiety.

At this moment, a scout walked over, covered in dust, approached Brigade Commander Yang, gave a military salute, and said loudly, "Report! Gustav's city defense army is approaching our side, two or three streets are full of people. There are also armored vehicles clearing the way in front, and the exact number of people cannot be estimated."

Brigade Commander Yang's face sank, and he immediately said, "Damn it, we can't wait any longer, report to the higher-ups immediately!"

...

Jia City, airport.

As the war reached this stage, the entire command organization of Panama City was moving, closer to the war zone.

Su Tianyu, Yu Mingyuan, Fu Zhen and others had already taken planes and arrived in Jia City one after another.

As soon as Yu Mingyuan and An Qiqi got off the plane, they saw Liu Hongxu rushing over.

"There's a situation." Liu Hongxu ran to the two of them, panting, "The latest... the latest intelligence, Gustav has sent a large number of armed personnel, and they are approaching the Huagong Association headquarters."

"Are we being surrounded now?" An Qiqi was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "How is the attack going? How many people have we lost?"

Liu Hongxu shook his head, "No, we haven't fought yet."

"Haven't fought yet?" Yu Mingyuan frowned, and interjected, "What's the situation? It's already this time, why haven't they fought yet? Where's Brigade Commander Yang, what is he doing?"

"It's like this..." Liu Hongxu roughly explained the issue of the Huagong Association hostages.

"Isn't this bullshit?!" Yu Mingyuan exploded as soon as he heard it, "Tell Brigade Commander Yang to contact me immediately!"

"Okay." Liu Hongxu took out his cell phone and immediately called Brigade Commander Yang, "Hello, Brigade Commander Yang, I'm right next to Chairman Yu now, he wants to talk to you personally..."

Yu Mingyuan snatched the phone and said urgently, "Brigade Commander Yang, don't worry about Wang Xiao's side. Have you arrived yet? If you have, attack immediately. The war situation is changing rapidly, waiting one more minute is suicide!"

"Okay!" Brigade Commander Yang's spirit was lifted, but he couldn't help reminding, "But Wang Xiao's side...?"

"If he has any dissatisfaction, let him call me." Yu Mingyuan said sharply, "You only have one task now: attack, take down the Huagong Association headquarters as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

The two hung up the phone, and Liu Hongxu next to him asked, "After all, it's a cooperative relationship, should we say hello to Xiao Yu?"

Yu Mingyuan waved his hand, "Wouldn't telling him about these things now just add trouble? Just do it!"

"Brother Yuan is right, don't hesitate at this time." An Qiqi also added.

...

Saint Paul City, outskirts of the Huagong Association headquarters.

Wang Xiao stood on the other side of the alley, looking anxious, and was still making phone calls, "Okay, okay, that's settled then."

Now that he had almost finished contacting them, Wang Xiao was about to take the next step when he heard a burst of rapid footsteps.

"Pa pa pa..."

Wang Xiao turned his head and saw that the An faction's soldiers had already begun to move.

"What's going on?" Wang Xiao was anxious, quickly ran to the front of the team, and shouted at Brigade Commander Yang from a distance, "Old Yang, what do you mean by this, why did you suddenly move?"

"I received an order to launch an attack immediately." Brigade Commander Yang responded in a hurry while commanding the troops, "If you have any questions, go talk to Yu Mingyuan."

"Damn it, I already said, we're about to finish negotiating here!" Wang Xiao cursed with red eyes.

Brigade Commander Yang was only responsible for executing the orders from above, he did not respond, but waved his hand and urged, "Rush up, test the defense strength."

Seeing that communication was ineffective, Wang Xiao immediately took out his cell phone and found Yu Mingyuan's number...

...

Yu Mingyuan and An Qiqi, surrounded by guards, were walking towards a military vehicle.

"Di ling ling!"

The phone kept ringing, Yu Mingyuan frowned, but still answered it.

"Yu Mingyuan!" Wang Xiao said urgently, "I'm telling you, I have four or five hundred lives there now, I can bring people back immediately, why did you let your troops suddenly attack?"

"Are you talking nonsense?" Yu Mingyuan couldn't hold back his anger and directly retorted, "Do you know how many people are fighting desperately outside right now? A full fifty or sixty thousand people! The war calculates results by the second, hesitating for one minute could mean the reduction of thousands, or even thousands of people. The Huagong Association is the main target of this operation, just because of your five hundred people, are we going to make so many people stand still?!"

Wang Xiao suppressed his anger and said, gritting his teeth, "I'll emphasize again, these five hundred people are all officers of my Wang family, as well as the family members of core management. Their deaths will have a very big impact on our side! We have already suffered heavy losses! Give me ten minutes, just give me ten more minutes, and I can get them all out!"

"It's impossible to give you ten more minutes." Yu Mingyuan refused Wang Xiao's request cleanly, "If you can fight, then fight, if you can't, we'll do it ourselves."

"Yu Mingyuan, are you deliberately targeting us?!"

"I'm looking at the overall situation and doing things, how can I have the time to target you?!" Yu Mingyuan responded without giving an inch, "If you're not convinced, appeal to Jiangzhou and Wu Hanshen, don't talk nonsense with me."

After speaking, Yu Mingyuan hung up the phone directly.

At the same time, at the Huagong Association headquarters building.

The An faction's one thousand elite troops had already approached the main gate of the building, and Brigade Commander Yang, looking at the private armed forces in front, raised his arm and shouted, "Attack!"

...

Five minutes later.

Wang Xiao dialed Jiangzhou's number, and explained the situation to him urgently, "I have indeed finished contacting them, the other party is willing to take money and release people, but Yu Mingyuan is deliberately targeting me..."

"Okay, okay, I got it." Jiangzhou interrupted and responded, "I'll communicate with Su Tianyu, wait for my news."

The phone hung up.

Jiangzhou cursed, "Damn it, what are they thinking?! He'll call again in a while, you answer it...!"
