Aris was actually worried before the battle started tonight. As the captain, he knew the combat effectiveness of the patrol team very well. Although they trained every day, they had very little combat experience. They might not be able to defeat these guys who hung around on the streets all day and picked fights with them. Not to mention, the other side had more people than them.
However, the subsequent battle was beyond his expectations.
The patrol team did suffer some losses when they first started fighting. However, Iron Handcuff's men did not expect the patrol team to appear suddenly. They were caught off guard, and they were very cautious. They did not take the opportunity to expand their victory.
So when the patrol team gradually got used to the rhythm of the battle, their past training came in handy.
Of course, everyone's reaction was different. Some people just carried out Aris's orders rigidly, advancing step by step. Some people showed obvious discomfort after seeing the blood, and their movements slowed down. Others seemed to have turned on a switch in their bodies, and they became more and more courageous as they fought.
Among them, Marcus was the leader. He and two other young men, who had recently joined the patrol team, spontaneously formed a small team to protect each other's backs. They even ignored Aris's orders and kept a considerable distance from the rest of the team. When they were in a killing frenzy, they simply rushed to the place where there were more people.
Marcus took the lead, waving two short swords at the dwarf who was leading the patrol team. The dwarf was so scared that he quickly asked his men to surround Marcus and the other two. Marcus managed to cut down one of the dwarves, but the delay caused more people to surround him. Marcus wiped the blood off his face, and he and the other two patrol team members stood back-to-back, forming a triangle to deal with the enemies that rushed up to them.
At this time, the dwarf also became determined. He threw away all his scruples and vowed to teach the three patrol team members who dared to mess with him an unforgettable lesson. Just when the three of them could not hold on any longer, Black Mamba and the others jumped down from the building.
Only then did the people downstairs realized that Iron Handcuff and Broken Finger were dead. Their morale collapsed in an instant.
Marcus and the others finally got a chance to catch their breath. On the other side, Aris finally brought his men over. Both sides regrouped and began to hunt down Iron Handcuff's men. Marcus killed the dwarf, and Black Mamba sprained his ankle when he landed on the ground. However, he was lucky. He was picked up by one of his men and ran into an alley in a panic.
But what Black Mamba didn't expect was that not long after, he heard footsteps behind him.
Soap and the others looked even more nervous than Black Mamba, who was being chased. After all, the status of the two sides was incomparable before tonight. Black Mamba's words could determine the life and death of Soap and the others. But now, it was as if fate had played a cruel joke on him. Black Mamba was now being chased by Soap and the others.
Looking at the teenagers in front of him, Black Mamba's underling said angrily, "What? Are you kids tired of living? Hurry up and scram. "
Soap and the others were taken aback, but they did not leave. Instead, they took a few steps closer and drew their daggers at the same time.
"Boss Black Mamba, I'm sorry," Soap said honestly, "Our mission tonight is to kill you." After he said this, he seemed to have regained some courage. He then looked up at another person, "As for the others, as long as they surrender, we can let bygones be bygones. And we can continue to collect income from today onwards."
"Collect income? Iron Handcuff is gone. Who else can we collect income from? "Black Mamba's underling snorted.
"Me." Soap pointed to his nose and said weakly, "I will take over the business left by Iron Handcuff and manage the thieves on these three streets."
"You?!" Black Mamba's underling was so angry that he laughed.
"Of course, I can't do it alone, but the patrol team will help me," Soap said, "provided that I kill Black Mamba first."
"You are the patrol team's puppet!" Black Mamba's underling suddenly realized what Soap said.
Of course, it was not appropriate for the patrol team to directly manage those thieves. If they still wanted to make money, they had to kill Iron Handcuff and support someone else to take over the business left by Iron Handcuff. And now, it seemed that this person was Soap.
Soap was a young thief, and his strength was average. He had no foundation, and it was difficult for him to convince the others. No matter how Zhang Heng looked at him, he was not a suitable candidate to take over Iron Handcuff's business. On the other hand, he was easier to control. Besides, the most important reason why Zhang Heng valued him was that he had a small appetite, and it was easier to feed him.
So it was not surprising that Zhang Heng chose him as Iron Handcuff's successor. Of course, strictly speaking, Soap was just a puppet. Zhang Heng still planned to hand over the actual management to Marcus.
At this time, Black Mamba also realized that this was actually a bloody annexation.
This kind of thing was not unexpected in this place, especially among the small forces. Almost every day, there would be people being swallowed up and eliminated. In the beginning, they were able to take over the thief business in these three blocks because they defeated the original owner of the business.
But this time, the people who targeted them were a little special. They were actually the patrol team.
I'm different from Broken Finger and Iron Handcuff. I've always been a very obedient person. Instead of killing me, it's better to let me help you. With my help, it will be easier for you to take over the business left by Iron Handcuff. And I also know where Iron Handcuff hid his income over the years. How about using this money to buy my life? You can keep this money for yourself. I will cooperate with you to keep it a secret. "
Soap and the others were tempted when they heard what Black Mamba said. They were thieves, and of course, their families were not that rich. Previously, Skinny Monkey's sister was sick, and he had no money to treat her. Now, a large sum of money was placed in front of them. Iron Handcuff had been running the gang for a long time, and the wealth he had accumulated was definitely not a small amount. With this money, they could even consider moving out and getting out of this mess completely.
Soap and the others looked at each other.
At this time, Black Mamba added, "If you want to know, come over here. I can tell you. Don't worry, I don't have any weapons," Black Mamba said as he raised his hands high.
Soap knew that Iron Handcuff might be lying, but he could not resist the temptation of money. He could not help but walk up to Black Mamba. Black Mamba bent down and whispered in Soap's ear, "Listen, Iron Handcuff's money is hidden in …"
Halfway through his words, a short knife was drawn from his cuff. Black Mamba knew that the only one in Soap's group who could fight was Soap, who was about to reach adulthood. As long as he killed Soap, the remaining three people would not be a problem. Besides, he still had one of his men. Although he had sprained his ankle and could not catch up with them, he could still drive the remaining three people away.
But what Black Mamba did not expect was that the next moment, a dagger was stabbed into his back.
"I'm sorry, boss." Black Mamba used the last of his strength to turn his neck and looked at his subordinate who had an apologetic look on his face. "Although you treat me well, I'm really short of money. Since the new boss is willing to pay us, I have no choice but to change my boss." After that, he pulled out the dagger and nodded at Soap, who was scared out of his wits. "He is lying. Iron Handcuff has gambled away all his money, and he has nothing left. Also, I'm joining the gang, boss."
