Wind Rises in Dragon City Chapter 135
🕑 Added 2024-11-28 11:45:06 +0000 UTCChapter 135: The Garrison Takes Flight
On the streets of Longkou District, three cars were speeding along.
In the car, Su Tianyu pointed his gun at Nick's head: "Can you understand Chinese?!"
Nick stared at Su Tianyu with fierce eyes, saying nothing.
"Playing the eye game with me?" Su Tianyu turned and shouted: "Uncle Gang!"
"Bang!"
Without hesitation, Uncle Gang shot and shattered the right kneecap of a black man in the back seat.
"Ah!"
Screams filled the car, but Nick still wouldn't speak to Su Tianyu.
"Squelch!"
Su Tianyu was anxious and had no time for interrogation tactics. His left hand drew a knife and directly stabbed out Nick's left eyeball.
Nick convulsed in pain, howling: "I'll tear you to pieces!"
"Squelch!"
Su Tianyu cut off his ear with one stroke. Nick passed out from the pain but still hadn't revealed Zhou Tonghui's location.
"Pretty tough!" Su Tianyu turned his knife toward the black man in the back: "Come on, your turn."
Nick, as a core leader of the War Hammer organization who had dominated the gold brick industry for years, had seen it all. He knew very clearly that if he talked now, his life would definitely be forfeit, so he wanted to stall for time to let the people outside move Zhou Tonghui and Yu Mingfei to safety.
But!
Not everyone had Nick's resolve. There were five other captured members, and these people didn't necessarily all want to die. If Nick didn't talk, Su Tianyu might not kill him yet, but if they didn't talk, they would likely die immediately.
Su Tianyu savagely tortured the black man in the back seat, cutting open the skin at all his joints and prodding his bones with the knife tip. The man completely broke down and shouted: "...I'll talk... I'll talk!"
Su Tianyu wiped the blood from his face and demanded without any sympathy: "Where are the people?!"
"I... I need a map, I can't say exactly..." the man replied in broken Chinese.
Su Tianyu immediately took out his phone, pulled up a map of Dragon City's surroundings, and showed it to him: "Point it out!"
The black man's trembling hand zoomed in on the map and pointed to a spot.
Su Tianyu immediately called Yu Jinhang: "Got the location."
......
In Dragon City, a garrison regiment commander stood before Yu Jinhang, saying on the phone: "I now formally order you, your company go to Coastal Area 403 for normal patrol duty, now, immediately!"
"Yes, Commander!" the officer on the phone immediately replied.
As they ended their call, the company commander's personal phone suddenly received a text message with an exact location.
Two minutes later.
In a coastal dock on Dragon City's north side, six men dragged Zhou Tonghui and Yu Mingfei out.
Across the road, four cars stopped, and someone in the lead car waved and shouted: "Hurry up, Brother Hu told us to leave immediately."
"Coming, coming!"
The six men supported Zhou Tonghui and Yu Mingfei, struggling up the slope to the road to put them in the cars.
"Whoom whoom!"
A helicopter rotor noise rang out in the sky, but no one paid attention, thinking it was just a navy patrol aircraft doing coastal patrol. They bent down to put the two in the cars, preparing to leave.
The rotor sound grew louder and louder as an extremely bright searchlight beam swept the ground.
"We are Dragon City Garrison's Second Patrol Brigade, Third Regiment First Company patrol reconnaissance aircraft. Personnel below, upon hearing this announcement, immediately put your hands on your heads and squat in place...!" came the announcement from the helicopter.
The lackeys below were stunned. Someone immediately shouted: "Quick, run, get out of the cars and run!"
With the helicopter there, choosing to escape by car would be no different from being idiots. Many lackeys, afraid of being caught on scene, chose to abandon the cars and flee.
"Repeating once more, we are...!" the helicopter announcement continued.
Dozens of lackeys below kept shouting as they scattered, some still holding Zhou Tonghui and Yu Mingfei hostage.
On the helicopter's radio channel, the company commander's shout rang out: "The damn dock gang is too arrogant! Today we have orders from above, just shoot half of them!"
With orders from above, the soldiers on the helicopter didn't care who was below. A private opened the cabin door and directly set up the machine gun.
"Whirr...!"
The high-speed autocannon turned.
"Lower, lower the altitude," the co-pilot observer called out.
The helicopter nose dipped down, flying close to the coastal forest at high speed.
"Open fire!" the officer in the cabin ordered.
"Bang bang bang...!"
Gunfire like a string of grenades exploding in succession rang out over the coastline as autocannon rounds over an inch long swept through the forest, shattering tree trunks and sending debris flying.
The fleeing dock gang core members in the forest fell one after another. Many people who were hit had their bodies literally split in two by the rounds.
Was it pitiful?
Actually not - these people were all core members of the dock gang, absolute backbones of the gold brick industry operations, and their goods were distributed within Dragon City.
For people in this business, talking about humanity would be completely superfluous.
After one burst of fire, six or seven criminals were killed on the spot. The rest didn't dare run anymore and all squatted in the forest shouting surrender.
The helicopter circled overhead, its gun gleaming black.
About three or four minutes later, the garrison convoy arrived and directly arrested all personnel.
In the forest, Zhou Tonghui's consciousness was very fuzzy, but he still called out to the soldiers: "He... he's hurt worse than me, save him... save him!"
The soldiers immediately hoisted both men onto the helicopter and sent them to the garrison hospital.
......
In the city.
The regiment commander turned to look at Yu Jinhang and said: "The people are back."
"Will they survive?!" Yu Jinhang asked hoarsely.
"They're safe for now, sent to the hospital," the commander replied.
Hearing this, Yu Jinhang finally relaxed completely and sat in his chair saying: "The people who went to Longkou still need you to get them out."
"No problem. Call them and tell them to go to the pickup point. The people need to leave now, otherwise if judicial department people block them, there'll be trouble," the commander immediately instructed.
Hearing this, Yu Jinhang immediately called Su Tianyu.
......
In the urban area.
Gu Tongshan had just run out of the trading company and bent down to sit in his car, shouting into his phone at Xu Hu: "Nick and his people leaked, come back quickly!"
"I know, are you alright, Master?!"
"I got out."
"Be careful, the Big Circle has airdropped into Dragon City, no one knows what they want to do," Xu Hu warned.
"Don't worry about me, first contact the outer perimeter..."
The two talked on the phone for a minute before hanging up.
In the city, in an alley, the man whose face was covered in burn scars lowered his head to tie on a triangular scarf: "They've moved!"
