Zhao Wei Hu led his troops out of Hua Lei Town and launched a night attack on Silanka, reaching the city's interior in less than five hours.

Mihare divided his forces, sending more than five thousand men to pick up the goods, which left his own defense zone empty, making it difficult to resist a Chi Army with a determination to win, let alone withstand the firepower of two divisions of government troops.

Mihare's operation seemed confusing on the surface. Logically speaking, if he only had one army's worth of troops on the front line, shouldn't he have asked friendly forces to garrison the area first when sending men out to pick up the goods? To ensure the safety of the Silanka front line?

But Mihare didn't do that, and he didn't even notify his superiors that he was picking up the goods today.

Why did he do this? Was Mihare's military command ability just average?

Not at all. In this old Mexican region, the government troops had been fighting for years, and the rebels had been fighting for just as long. Even the dumbest military commander, just from being exposed to the atmosphere of war, could become a professor at the Army University!

The root of the problem was that Mihare was too greedy. If he received the three hundred million in military supplies by himself, he would definitely pick the best ones and take the largest share. But if two or three troops were involved, everyone would get a chance to drink some soup and eat some meat.

The rebels' repeated defeats in recent years are directly related to this kind of greed! Resources are scarce, military equipment is scarce, and troop replenishment is difficult. After warlords occupy a town, they begin to extract resources like crazy. Everyone is afraid of being poor, and their eyes turn red at the sight of any profit. The various calculations under the table are like a palace drama.

Of course, it's not just the rebels who are like this. The old Mexican government troops are no better. Even the fairest old Min Army commander would definitely arm his own direct line first when he received purchased military equipment.

Fairness? There's no such thing as absolute fairness!

Before dawn, Zhao Wei Hu was already leading the Chi Army in a frenzy of looting 125's supplies and property in Silanka Town!

Zhao Wei Hu fought this battle with great satisfaction. Although the Chi Army also suffered considerable casualties, it completely revitalized the border battlefield.

...

A little after five in the morning.

Su Tian Yu's A Team had retreated to a relatively safe location, where they planned to wait for nightfall before dispersing and leaving.

At the foot of a mountain, Hou Guo Yu cursed with some annoyance, "Damn, just a little bit more! I would have blown Kang Ding Huang's head off with one shot."

"That's fate. Fate dictates that you won't be able to kill him this time. Maybe God doesn't want to take Kang Ding Huang yet," Su Tian Yu comforted softly. "The goal has been achieved, the satisfaction of revenge is there, and the job was done well."

Hou Guo Yu paused for a moment. "To be honest, we still don't know enough about our opponents. The Qing Yi Bureau's resistance was completely beyond our expectations. As soon as the guns fired, those people really didn't care about their lives. Luckily, we ambushed them, otherwise the losses wouldn't have been small."

"Yeah." Su Tian Yu nodded heavily and patted Hou Guo Yu on the shoulder in consolation. "Get some rest!"

"Yeah." Hou Guo Yu tilted his head back and drank a whole bottle of water.

Da Bai and Wei Xiang Zuo and others were busy treating the wounded.

Gu Bai Shun and several of Guo Zheng Dao's brothers were seriously injured, and their condition was very dangerous. However, everyone had prepared medical equipment before the operation, so they could temporarily treat the wounds.

"How is it?!"

Su Tian Yu walked to the edge of the crowd, squatted down, and asked Wei Xiang Zuo.

"Two are crippled, and one is in critical condition. He's probably not going to make it." Wei Xiang Zuo rinsed his hands with mineral water. "When are we leaving?"

"The situation in the district is relatively complicated. I heard that Tan Heng Qiang was so angry that he almost had to be hospitalized. It must be very strict now. I'll call home first to ask about the situation." Su Tian Yu paused for a moment. "If it doesn't work, we'll still go by water. That's safer!"

"Alright!" Wei Xiang Zuo nodded.

...

In the mountains and forests.

The unlucky Zhang Yu was tied up and thrown on the ground, his face pale and his eyes filled with fear.

"Heh, heh...!"

Lao Hei, his face covered, laughed like a madman and squatted down beside Zhang Yu. "Little brother, what's wrong? You didn't bring a GPS when you ran away, and you became a lost little lamb, didn't you?"

Zhang Yu swallowed. "What exactly do you want to do?"

"I have only one question." Lao Hei raised a finger. "What's your identity?"

"I...I'm the chief of the Qing Yi Bureau's Internal Affairs Department." Zhang Yu lied without thinking, because although he was arrogant, he wasn't stupid enough to have no brains at all. His identity was special, and if it was revealed, he didn't know how much suffering he would endure.

"Chief of the Internal Affairs Department!" Lao Hei scratched his head. "The chief of the Internal Affairs Department is useless! How did you get off course!"

"I really got lost!"

"I think you really think we're idiots." Lao Hei turned his head and waved his hand, pointing to Zhang Yu's crotch. "Electro-fry his eggs, get him!"

...

Military Headquarters.

Tan Heng Qiang slammed the table and shouted at Xin Chao Jie, "Explain this! What the hell is going on?!"

"Commander! The situation I have so far is that the robbers first controlled our checkpoints." Xin Chao Jie said, sweat beading on his forehead. "Then they pretended to be docking personnel and came into contact with the goods. When the escort unit identified their fake identities, the two sides exchanged fire...!"

"I'm not a judge, I didn't ask you how they did it!" Tan Heng Qiang roared, his eyes bulging. "What I want to know is, how did these people infiltrate the district from the border! And how did they escape! Are your three regiments all blind?! Or did they take money!"

These words were too harsh, and Xin Chao Jie almost had a heart attack!

"No...no!" Xin Chao Jie felt dizzy and explained, sweating profusely, "The three regiments tried to intercept them, but it didn't work...!"

Everyone in the conference room was now staring at Xin Chao Jie with gloomy faces, and Tan Heng Qiang's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

...

In the mountains and forests.

"Zzzzt!"

With a flash of electric light, Zhang Yu convulsed and shouted, "I...I'll talk...stop shocking me, I'll talk!"

Lao Hei waved his hand. "You're not the chief of the Internal Affairs Department, are you?"

"No...no!" Zhang Yu's expression was very painful, and his body was curled up on the ground. "I...I'm the president of Hui Hong Pharmaceutical Group, Zhang Zheng Chen's son, my name is Zhang Yu!"

"See, I knew that the Qing Yi Bureau people couldn't be so cowardly. The minister hasn't run away yet, and the lower-level officers have already slipped away." Lao Hei stood up with satisfaction. "You should have said so earlier, why suffer this pain!"

"Ah!!" Zhang Yu wailed, "Too...too painful, let me go, save me!"

Lao Hei pointed to Zhang Yu's crotch. "Someone, bandage him up!"

The young man holding the retractable electric baton squatted down beside Zhang Yu, looked down at his crotch, swallowed, and said, "Brother! Don't bandage him... it's all burnt...!"
