The morning light was faint, jumping between the few leaves and trunks.

The darkness of the night converges on the western mountains, and the whiteness of the day begins in the East China Sea.

The earth is getting warmer, and the peninsula is bright.

On the national highway from Kite City to Gem City, a warrior lying in the grass licked his dry lips, untied the kettle he was carrying and took a big sip.

He had a bad stomach, the water was cold, and it was a little uncomfortable to drink.

But it didn't matter, the thought of being able to take revenge, the thought of being able to make the person at Maxim's Cannery pay for what he had done in the past, the discomfort in his body dissipated, and the whole person was refreshed.

Not far from the right side of the soldier, Hou Hanmin bit a piece of white linen cloth with his teeth, and wrapped it around the handle of the J35 sniper rifle, feeling that the thickness was appropriate, and then pulled the two ends to tie a slipknot.

He straightened his gun, looked down at the scope, felt that the situation was much better than before, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Feifei, Hou Susu will help your dad collect some interest this time......" Hou Hanmin took a deep breath, stretched the muzzle of the gun out of the grass, and aimed it at the road ahead.

In the encounter a month ago, Wang Puzhao was killed by Tang Yan, and the others also died at the hands of the enemy, only he escaped by pretending to be dead and returned to Kite City.

In the following month, his life changed dramatically.

The lifestyle of Kitetown is very different from that of Gem City and Jeseong, and the food and clothing on weekdays are allocated by the relevant departments, and the amount is measured according to the size of the population, the contribution to the collective, and special needs.

In fact...... Collectivization was not only manifested in the distribution of materials, but even the lord's palace had the power to decide who adult men would marry.

After that incident, Fei Xiang entrusted Wang Puzhao's wife to him...... Anyway, the word "entrustment" is used in the official document issued by the city lord's mansion.

Yes, he is now Cuiyun's husband.

In the past, the object of his repeated calls for his sister-in-law is now his wife.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is a good arrangement, only Hou Hanmin and Cuiyun know that this arrangement just looks good.

The girl who called him Hou Susu became a daughter, and the sister-in-law she respected before became her own woman.

There is a rough saying that delicious is not as good as dumplings, and fun is not as good as sister-in-law.

But...... He's really not a womanizer.

He knew very well in his heart that when Wang Puzhao climbed out of the car, he didn't stop him, and he didn't share the hardships with life and death, because he was very afraid and he didn't want to die.

As a result, he survived, but the city lord's orders turned Cuiyun into his woman.

He had to face his wife's worried face every day, with sad and longing eyes.

Cuiyun is very good-looking, Feifei is very well-behaved, but he is not happy, not happy at all.

It was more of a torture, a constant reminder of what he had done at the time.

He was full of guilt in front of her; She was embarrassed and speechless in front of him, and the two of them had been married for a month, and they had never even touched their hands, let alone made love in the same bed.

Why is this happening?

He was depressed, but he didn't dare to question the decision of the City Lord's Mansion.

Until today, a revenge ...... has finally been found No, it should be said that it is an opportunity to alleviate the guilt in the heart.

To put it bluntly, he was the most motivated and courageous of the soldiers who participated in this mission.

In a ditch without water ten meters behind Hou Hanmin, Fei Xiang, the city lord of Yuancheng, held a map of the peninsula in his hand, his eyes staring at a circle drawn with a pencil on National Highway 308 and fell into deep thought.

"Are you sure they'll pass by in the early hours of the morning?"

"I'm sure."

Opposite Fei Xiang was a half-squatting person, his face was very white, wearing a brand-new military uniform, a brand-new pistol pinned to his waist, brand-new military boots on his feet, and brand-new gloves on his hands.

It's as if the whole person is new.

If there is someone from Gem City here, they will definitely be able to recognize his identity------ Dong Pingchuan, the deputy commander of the former Gem City Guard.

Before Hui Liancai, Chai Xiaonong, and Mei Lin conspired against the Pandaren Army, in order to get support from Jecheng, they sent Dong Pingchuan to Jecheng to lobby conservative members.

That decision helped him escape and not die in the melee.

"Xia Xin thought that those people disguised as scavengers and merchants in District 21 would be able to import a large amount of sophisticated equipment from Jeseong without even realizing it? Hum! He was also too naïve. ”

Dong Pingchuan has been the deputy commander of the Gem City City Defense Army, and he has a deep research and understanding of the Xia family, including business matters.

Since the day before yesterday, he received a report from an informant in Jecheng that those targeted people who served the Xia family were making large purchases in the city.

Affected by the death of Hui Liancai and Chai Xiaoming, and Xia Xin's monopoly on the power of Gem City, he became a child that no one wanted in Jicheng, and even Huo Dongsheng avoided it and regarded it as trouble.

This kind of treatment gap made him very angry and extremely unhappy. While hating Tang Yan and Xia Xin to death, he also had a lot of resentment about Jicheng's practices.

So this time he grabbed Xia Xin's pigtails, he did not inform the Jicheng side, but met Fei Xiang with the help of the officials of Yuancheng, and revealed the fact that the Xia family had purchased a batch of precision instruments in Jicheng and was going to send them to Gem City.

You must know that the contradiction between Jicheng and the Panda Man Legion is in a state of dark tide, and the contradiction between Kite City and the Panda Man Legion has long been open and clear.

That kid really slapped the people of Kite City last time, and this time he was able to use his own way to govern others and rob the transport convoy of Gem City, which must be something that Fei Xiang and the people of Kite City are happy to do.

Dong Pingchuan and the people of Yuancheng have common enemies, so the alliance is very smooth and the cooperation is very pleasant.

As a reward for providing information, Fei Xiang promised to pay a sum of money after the deed was completed, and after doing this, he could go to the Western Alliance to spend the rest of his life in peace.

"That little rabbit cub of the Xia family...... He can hide it from the Jeseong officials, but he can't hide it from my eyes. ”

Fei Xiang bowed his head slightly while looking down at the map.

Dong Pingchuan was immersed in his emotions and didn't notice the arc on Fei Xiang's face.

That's the color of ridicule.

This does not mean that he will regret it, refuse to pay the money, and be an untrustworthy person, but before making a deal with Dong Pingchuan, he has reached a cooperation intention with another object.

The outside world thinks that he and Tang Yan are enemies who share the same sky, and there will be a battle between Kite City and Gem City.

In fact, only he and Tang Yan knew that it was just a small operation used to manipulate people's hearts and play with power, which was a bit of a shock in nature at most.

He further rallied people's hearts, exaggerated hatred, and completely eliminated the voices that were fainter than candles calling for reconciliation with Gem City, cementing his position.

Tang Yan has also been recognized by the people of Gem City and is regarded as a hero who sacrifices himself.

The two of them work really well together.

The two of them are good partners.

As for Dong Pingchuan?

In Fei Xiang's opinion, he is just a clown.

Long before Dong Pingchuan contacted him, Xia Xin informed him through Johnson's communication equipment that Gem City was going to buy a batch of goods from Jecheng.

This matter will be handed over to the person who is targeted by Dong Pingchuan to do, and I think that guy will not be indifferent.

According to Xia Xin's speculation, there is a high probability that the surname Dong will contact him and borrow the hand of Yuancheng to avenge and profit for himself.

The Xia family can sacrifice some people to contribute to his city lord's cause, and in exchange, after the matter is completed, he must hand over some of the precision materials and Dong Pingchuan to Gem City, so that Tang Yan can eradicate the aftermath of the rebellion of Hui Liancai and Chai Xiaonong.

Like this, hello, hello, everyone, Fei Xiang happily agreed.

The Xia family paid a few lives to get Dong Pingchuan, the deputy commander of the former Jewel City Guard, which is very fair.

"Poor fellow."

Fei Xiang thought deep down. The man thought he was a hunter, but he didn't know that he had already been targeted by a real hunter.

"Calculate the time, it should be almost up...... Let's hope those guys won't stop for breakfast. Dong Pingchuan walked a few steps to the east and came back, and the surface of the military boots was covered with a thin layer of ash.

He took out the handkerchief tucked into his pocket and wiped it, and nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the re-shiny vamp.

At the same time, Fei Xiang suddenly raised his head and looked due west.

Dong Pingchuan was stunned for a moment, listened attentively, and there was a faint explosion in the distance.

Hou Hanmin slipped down the slope, didn't care about patting the soil off his body, looked at Fei Xiang and said, "City Lord......"

As soon as the words fell, I saw puffs of smoke rising from the western sky.

Fei Xiang's face became a little unsightly.

Dong Pingchuan said: "Could it be ......?"

"Let's go, go over and have a look."

Fei Xiang put away the map, glanced at Hou Hanmin, and ordered a few people to walk towards the armored car parking place.

………………

After some time, the armored car carrying Fei Xiang and others stopped about 3 kilometers from the ambush site.

Flames rose on the ground, and the scorching air distorted slightly.

Green smoke rose and was cut into large and small pieces by the wind.

Less than ten meters in front of him lay a corpse, blood gushing out of a bullet hole in his chest, and a cloud on the ground.

There was a pistol on the road not far away, pointed at the converted pickup truck that had overturned on its side, the fire was still burning in the seat inside, and the charred body of the main driver's seat could be seen through the window.

There was also a modified pickup truck in front of it, which was blown up to only the stainless steel frame.

Between the two converted pickup trucks, there are a large number of parts scattered on the road, including broken military circuit boards, broken biological scanners, a large number of screws and nuts, and a large bag of steel ingots.

The transport convoy in Gem City was attacked...... But not by them.

It's not the same as planned!

"Is it a marauder? Or are you from Jeseong? ”

When Hou Hanmin took the soldiers to the scene of the accident to investigate the details, Dong Pingchuan looked at Fei Xiang and said.

There was no response, and the city lord blackened face the whole time.

Which forces would dare to come to his territory to spread wilderness? Robbed him of the benefits?

Although Tang Yan has made many enemies since becoming the deputy commander of the Panda Man Legion, it is normal for someone to attack the transport team, but why not do it outside the Kite City area? Right under their noses? Isn't it deliberately disgusting to them?

No...... Wrong!

Dong Pingchuan's face changed, this matter is not simple, or it is not that someone has taken the lead, but someone deliberately framed him to make Yuancheng take the blame.

In the other party's opinion, he Fei Xiang should be happy to be this back-stabber.

Why?

The biggest reason is that the residents of the peninsula know that the feud between Kite City and Gem City is insoluble, and Tang Yan slapped him in the face not long ago.

According to common sense, he must be desperate to fight back. Even if the person who attacked the convoy was not a Kite City soldier, he would try his best to publicize to the outside world that it was his own work, so as to show the strength, unyielding and martial courage of the Kite City people.

But the current situation is that he and the Xia family belong to a cooperative relationship, and once he takes the matter to himself, he will have to pay a considerable amount of resources while handing over Dong Pingchuan.

This...... Is there anything more depressing in the world?

The fat meat to the mouth just flew like this, and he had to pay something as compensation, after all, this happened in his territory, if he wanted to get along with the Panda People Legion and continue to fish between Gem City and Jicheng, respect was essential, you must know that the deputy head of the regiment was not a fat sheep who could be slaughtered by others.

Hou Hanmin quickly rushed over from the front and shook his head at him, meaning that the people in the convoy were all dead and there was no one alive.

"Judging from the tire marks left at the scene, the enemy should have used a vehicle such as a jeep, and it drove northwest after the attack."

"Northwest ......" Fei Xiang frowned, because he suddenly thought of a possibility.

Could this have been done by the Donglai settlement?

You must know that since he poked out the fact that the Panda People Legion possessed regenerative potions, the two major organizations that occupy a huge share of the pharmaceutical sales market in mainland China------ the MRT Consortium and the Greater Northeast Economic Cooperation Organization have all shown hostility towards Tang Yan.

Because the former's strength is more manifested in its influence on South China, its tentacles are blocked by Jiankang City and Jicheng, and cannot form a strong military deterrent to the peninsula. The latter is different, and now the Greater Northeast Economic Cooperation and Development Organization has almost formed de facto control over the Donglai settlement.

To put it bluntly, the next step is the operation against Gem City. Therefore, whether from a commercial point of view or from a military standpoint, the Pandaren Legion is a thorn in their side.

Something like robbing the Jewel City transport team is a good start, and it can be blamed on Yuancheng, further intensifying the contradictions between the two sides, and letting Tang Yan fight to the death with him, so that the Donglai settlement can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and make efforts at the critical moment to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Just when Fei Xiang was speculating about the situation, Dong Pingchuan came over from behind: "What should I do now?" ”

There was a layer of dust on his military boots, which was quite thick. However, unlike Fang Cai's performance, he didn't wipe it off with a handkerchief in time, and it looked a little sloppy.

Fei Xiang didn't speak, and as a response to the question above, he suddenly raised his gun at Dong Pingchuan.

This change made the expression of the former deputy commander of the Jewel City Guard change greatly, and confirmed that the killing intent in Fei Xiang's eyes was very real, and Dong Pingchuan raised his hand very shamefully.

Half of the handkerchief was pulled out of his pocket and fell to the ground, covering a cloud of blood that had not yet dried, and the silver lace was quickly dyed red.

The soil is dirty, and the blood is even dirtier, especially someone else's.

However, Dong Pingchuan didn't have the energy to be distressed at this time, but it was a pity that he looked at Fei Xiang and stammered, "You ...... What are you...... What is this for? ”
