Chapter 53 Firefight
Chapter 53 Firefight
"If Yang Changhui is leading the team later, you should rush to the front and be the vanguard."
"If it weren't for Yang Changhui leading the team, you would have gone to the second line of defense. If you couldn't hold it, you'd be dead there!"
The woman in red, Yu Yi, looked at the gunman in red and said coldly.
Whether Yang Changhui lives or dies will greatly affect their plans.
If Yang Changhui dies on the spot, the forces in Yongkang County will be leaderless and disorganized, greatly reducing their threat and making it much easier to delay them.
Now that Yang Changhui is seriously injured but not dead, he still has time to arrange for others to step forward and act in his place. Although they are not as effective as Yang Changhui himself, they can still consolidate the forces in the city and pose a significant threat to their plans.
This is also why Yu Yi gave Yang Changhui two dangerous choices after she learned that the red-clad gunman in front of her had failed to shoot and kill him.
The choice is not up to him, but depends on Yang Changhui's situation.
In either case, they are in an extremely dangerous area.
"Yes, sir."
Upon hearing this, the gunman in red bowed his head and agreed.
Within the Divine Symbol Society, failing to complete a mission carries severe penalties.
However, once the punishment is over, the offender will be pardoned and no further repercussions will be imposed.
For the red-clad gunman, this arrangement is already a good result, giving him a chance to make amends.
Normally, there wouldn't be such an opportunity; the punishment would only be given on the spot.
The gunman in red quickly left and went directly to the vanguard area to observe.
"Princess Jiang said that we must hold out for at least half a day."
"The martial arts master in the Yang family has already been allowed to go to Meijiang to provide support. The remaining people must be stopped, otherwise Princess Jiang will definitely hold them accountable afterward."
"Even with the Holy Maiden behind me, I will surely be severely punished."
Yu Yi looked towards the main urban area, her mind filled with countless thoughts.
If a martial arts master wanted to leave, they couldn't stop him at all.
A group of gunmen holding firearms can only prevent a sneak attack from a martial arts master; pursuing them would be quite difficult.
Because their speed, reaction speed, endurance, etc. are not on the same level, and if a martial arts master is given the opportunity to get close, it will not be long before the martial arts master can completely wipe out a group of gunmen.
In addition, when Zheng Bo arrived, he did not directly attack the dock, but found a boat near the dock and boarded it directly. Therefore, Zheng Bo did not encounter much resistance.
Seeing this situation, Yu Yi prioritized holding the Meijiang Wharf and did not arrange for anyone to pursue them.
Her task was to guard the dock.
Moreover, she will be in charge of this task, and if it fails, she will be the main person in charge and bear the main responsibility.
Normally, she would love to have the upper hand, but at this moment, she could only defend passively, so having the upper hand wasn't so great.
......
There is a courtyard about two miles outside the Meijiang Wharf.
Yang Jian and the others gathered in this courtyard.
At this moment, Jiang Lang was recounting Yang Changhui's previous plans and arrangements, assigning attack positions to various forces.
Upon hearing this, the crowd did not agree, but instead all looked at Yang Jian.
"The plan that Chief Police Officer Jiang mentioned is the arrangement of Inspector General Yang, and my Yang family agrees to this plan."
"The objective this time is to capture Meijiang and prepare for the arrival of reinforcements from Yunnan Province."
"Once the Prefect of Wendao enters the city, my Yang family will certainly tell you all about the contributions we have made to Yongkang County. We will not keep them to ourselves."
Yang Jian stood up and made his statement.
This was also Yang Changhui's purpose in having Yang Jian come forward.
If Yang Changhui could come, there would be no need for all this trouble. After he finished speaking, these people would simply follow his instructions and wouldn't have any other thoughts.
"My Chu family agrees."
"My Li family's business association also agrees."
"I, the Meiyu Gang, agree."
"I......"
After Yang Jian, representing the Yang family, expressed his opinion, the other forces in the city all agreed.
"Alright, in that case, let's proceed according to plan."
"Three gunshots from the center will signal a full-scale attack."
Seeing this, Jiang Lang breathed a sigh of relief.
It was his first time commanding such a large group of people, and he was a little nervous.
After he finished explaining his plan, no one responded. Fortunately, Yang Jian stepped in to support him, preventing the situation from becoming too awkward.
Jiang Lang knew very well that his ability to command these people was not due to his position as the police chief, but rather because he had the support of the Yang family.
When making the plans, he did not try to be clever and change the plans that Yang Changhui had prepared.
He only needed to follow Yang Changhui's plan, and if the mission was successfully completed, it would be a great achievement.
After the plan was arranged, everyone dispersed in the courtyard in an orderly manner.
Among all the groups, the police station remained the main force, launching a frontal attack to draw the attention of the Divine Symbol Society.
Other forces provide support from the sidelines, primarily to contain and restrain others.
The reason for this arrangement, besides the police station's responsibilities, is that the people within the police station have also received professional training. They may not be the most skilled, but their overall capabilities must surpass those of the powerful figures within the city.
"Second Young Master, the rear is extremely important. We need your support from the rear to prevent the Divine Talisman Society from launching a sneak attack from behind."
After everyone left in an orderly fashion, Jiang Lang came to Yang Jian's side and whispered something.
Nominally, everyone obeyed his orders, but Jiang Lang knew very well that Yang Jian could not be left in dangerous places ahead.
Although Yang Changhui did not explicitly instruct him on these matters, he had to understand them; otherwise, even if he successfully seized the Divine Talisman Society this time, he might not fare well afterward.
"Okay, I'll do as you say, Brother Jiang."
Yang Jian nodded knowingly upon hearing this.
During a gunfight, the battlefield is full of danger, but the degree of danger is also divided into different areas.
The most dangerous place is the front line of direct confrontation, also known as the vanguard zone.
Those in this position are basically facing a nine-out-of-ten chance of death. Survival depends not only on rich experience in dodging, but also largely on luck.
Then came the second line of defense, the third line of defense, and so on.
Rear support is relatively safer.
However, all of this is relative, because there is no absolutely safe place on the battlefield.
It is extremely common for someone to be alive one second and dead the next.
Everyone took their positions as planned.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
When the time was almost up, three rapid gunshots rang out.
Police officers fired first, shooting down the lookout on the high ground.
"Attack!!!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
After the first shot, a series of gunshots rang out, growing louder and louder.
Yang Jian hid behind cover, looking around. Beside him were guards from the Yang family, police officers from the police station, and members of the Meiyu Gang, who stood guard around him.
He would also fire when he saw an opportunity.
Thanks to the training these past few days, Yang Jian's marksmanship has become more accurate, and he can hit the target even from a distance.
After firing a shot, he would take cover and not stand for long, mainly relying on cover for cover.
This is the experience shared by veterans who survived multiple battles.
