Chapter 31 War Begins
"These useless people are so slow."
"So many unexpected events occurred during this city capture, all because of this bunch of useless people dragging me down."
Weng Jingyuan stared with a sinister expression at the Divine Symbol Society members who had just arrived, armed with guns.
These people had been rushing and chasing, and they were not in good condition; their faces showed signs of exhaustion.
As for the believers who came out of the thatched hut area, they were nowhere to be seen. They were all pale and thin, and in very poor health. Nobody knew where they were.
Weng Jingyuan did not place his hopes on these believers who came from the thatched hut area.
"My... sir, what are your orders?"
Holding a Type 38 rifle, the official reluctantly approached Weng Jingyuan's side, trembling, and asked, panting heavily.
Previously, Weng Jingyuan had arranged for them to come and help take down the police station personnel in the city. At first, they were somewhat useful, but later, Yang Changhui and others took advantage of their familiarity with the city's terrain to take the opportunity to shoot and kill many of their men, forcing them to retreat and defend.
After realizing they couldn't gain any advantage, Yang Changhui and his men changed their strategy, weaving through the city streets to shake them off.
If it weren't for the tracking marks left by Weng Jingyuan along the way, they would have lost track of him.
They themselves are well aware that their overall performance this time was terrible.
Now that we see Weng Jingyuan staring at the Yang residence without approaching, the outcome of our pursuit is predictable.
Weng Jingyuan must be furious, and he is likely to be implicated, or even die.
"You all rest for a while and recover your strength before launching a full-scale attack on the Yang residence."
Weng Jingyuan glanced at the panting, gun-wielding cult members and sighed inwardly.
After thinking it over, he decided not to punish them, but instead let them rest for a while.
Otherwise, if this group attacks the Yang residence in this state, the situation will only get worse.
While training armed cult members doesn't take more than a decade, it still requires at least three months of training to be considered qualified. If trained by the government, it would take at least six months.
If all the gunmen who came with him die here, he will have a hard time explaining himself when he goes back.
It's much more troublesome for the Divine Talisman Society to train another batch of gunmen than for the government.
Weng Jingyuan is incredibly strong. When he encounters a small number of gunmen, he can withstand the guns and forcefully kill them. However, this does not mean that he dares to ignore these gunmen, especially those sharpshooters, each of whom has the ability to take his life.
The world has developed so rapidly in recent years. Due to the influence of the previous dynasty, China's development has been relatively slow, but it is striving to catch up.
The more powerful cannons and the naval guns atop the steel torrents of the sea are even more terrifying. The protective shield on a martial arts master can be shattered by a single shot, turning him into dust.
Decades of training couldn't withstand those cold, hard firearms, a truly lamentable situation.
"Yes, sir."
Upon hearing this, the official holding the Type 38 rifle nodded in response, a look of relief flashing in his eyes.
He knew Weng Jingyuan's temperament, and the fact that he hadn't been punished was a great blessing.
The last believer who displeased Weng Jingyuan is still alive.
......
The Yang residence.
"The Chu family, the Li family's business association, the He family's martial arts school, the Meiyu Gang, and others have all sent people to provide support!"
"That expert from the Divine Talisman Society has already been dealt with personally by someone in the manor."
"We can kill all the remaining followers."
"The time has come, gentlemen, it's time for us to fight back!"
Yang Changhui's men not only located the reinforcements who were coming, but also made contact with them and agreed on a signal to take action.
He could see the situation from his high vantage point in the mansion, confirming that not all members of the Divine Talisman Society had come. This presented them with an excellent opportunity to retaliate.
"Kill them all!"
Upon hearing this, the officers at the police station shouted in unison.
These police officers all had a fierce glint in their eyes and were filled with a strong fighting spirit.
The more disheveled they were before, the stronger their fighting spirit became now.
Shame can only be washed away with the blood of the enemy.
"Erlang, bullets don't have eyes. Be careful when the battle starts."
Yang Changhui led the police officers to the main gate of the Yang residence. As he passed Yang Jian, he gave him a special instruction.
He wouldn't advise Yang Jian to go back to the backyard and wait, because Yang Jian had already made his choice, and he would experience similar things again in the future.
To stand on your own, you must go through many things.
"Um."
"Fifth Uncle, you be careful too."
Yang Jian nodded seriously and replied.
He was well aware of the dangers of gunfights. He had now mastered the "Little Dragon Elephant Fist" to its limit, but he still couldn't ignore bullets.
His head and heart were his fatal weaknesses.
He wore a goggles around his heart, but he didn't have a bulletproof helmet on his head.
It's not that Yang Jian didn't want to make one, but rather that bulletproof helmets haven't yet appeared in China.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Yang Changhui fired three rapid shots in quick succession.
This is the signal to start a war.
"kill!"
Roars erupted from multiple directions, their target the members of the Divine Symbol Society.
"How dare you!"
"I haven't even bothered you yet, and you dare to launch a sneak attack."
By the time Weng Jingyuan sensed something was wrong, they were already surrounded by a group of people.
Among these people, some were armed with guns and others with melee weapons. They were dressed in various clothes and looked somewhat like a rabble. However, the members of the Divine Symbol Society who were surrounded dared not think that way.
Among them, Yang Changhui and his police officers were the first to fire their weapons and initiate the battle.
"Yang Changhui, you dare to rush out of the Yang residence? You're courting death!"
"I had some reservations about you while you were in the Yang residence, but now that you've come out here, I have no such reservations!"
Weng Jingyuan leaped onto the roof.
Yang Changhui directed everyone to open fire.
Seeing this, Weng Jingyuan had no choice but to dodge to the side, avoiding several shots, but he was still hit by bullets, though they were blocked by the red membrane on his body.
This is also why Weng Jingyuan has never been able to defeat Yang Changhui and others.
There are several gunmen among them who are extremely skilled marksmen. They will deliberately fire a follow-up shot after others have fired, hoping to kill them in the process.
Weng Jingyuan paused, glancing at the other groups who had rushed out. He planned to deal with these people first, and then deal with the police officers.
"Where would you like to go, sir?"
As Weng Jingyuan turned around, a voice rang out in front of him.
Zheng Bo stared coldly at Weng Jingyuan, his emotions unreadable.
"I never expected that the Yang family would have a martial arts master in charge."
"No wonder all the people I arranged died at the Yang residence."
Upon seeing Zheng Bo's figure, Weng Jingyuan instantly understood why his men had failed.
Among the followers he had arranged, the strongest were only at the Inner Refinement level, and they didn't have any firearms. How could they possibly defeat this martial arts master in front of them?
His assessment that these people were useless just now seemed a bit hasty!
The person standing in front of him exerted great pressure on him, clearly indicating that he was a formidable fighter.
Even he wasn't confident he could take down the person in front of him, let alone the people he had arranged!
Weng Jingyuan finally understood why Yang Changhui and the others were so determined to return to the Yang residence; it turned out the Yang family had such a trump card.
A family that has thrived for over a century is indeed extraordinary; its foundation is quite astonishing.
"Most of the people you arranged didn't die at my hands."
Zheng Bo said calmly.
He only did it once in the backyard.
Later, seeing the chaos at Yang's residence, he intended to take action, but after seeing Yang Jian resolve the chaos, he refrained from doing so!
