Under Ren Xiaosu's lead, a large group of private troops swept through the forest like locusts. They did not let go of anything that could be eaten.
During this period, Ren Xiaosu raided three snake nests and caught more than 200 hibernating snakes. Furthermore, some of the snakes were especially plump, so Ren Xiaosu and his men killed them all before they could wake up.
With this, everyone was convinced. Being able to eat by following the Second Battalion Commander had become a belief in everyone's hearts.
Li Qingzheng chuckled and said, "Xiaosu, you're really resourceful. You don't lack food no matter where you go."
In this wilderness, being able to find food no matter where you went was a very impressive ability in itself.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu turned around and looked at the reinforced company. He was stunned. "Eh? Where's Liu Taiyu? "
The reinforced company had been taking turns carrying Liu Taiyu. But as they walked, Liu Taiyu suddenly disappeared.
Li Qingzheng whispered, "I saw it just now. They secretly dumped Liu Taiyu by the side of the road. I guess they thought you were more reliable than Liu Taiyu, so they were trying to show their loyalty."
Ren Xiaosu felt a little emotional. The former commander of the Second Battalion Commander had been "dumped" just like that. If the reinforced company could dump Liu Taiyu today, they could also dump Ren Xiaosu tomorrow. Who would dare to take such "loyalty" from him?
This incident reminded Ren Xiaosu once again that there were no good people in the Iron Second. Therefore, he should not take his position as the battalion commander too seriously.
The reinforced company's commander came over and said to Ren Xiaosu with a smile, "Battalion Commander, why don't we camp here tonight? I think we have enough food."
Ren Xiaosu smiled. "It's been hard on you guys, but we still have to walk a little longer. It's not safe here."
"Alright, I'll ask everyone to hold on a little longer then." The reinforced company's commander left with a smile on his face. As long as there was food to eat, everything would be fine.
The reason Ren Xiaosu did not camp here was not because it was not safe, but because he had not led the private troops to the designated location yet.
The team continued to move forward. Although they hadn't eaten anything yet, everyone felt particularly energetic.
Suddenly, Ren Xiaosu saw smoke rising from a place in the valley up ahead. He called for the reinforced company's commander and said, "Is that a friendly force up ahead? Let's go take a look. If we meet them, we'll greet them and ask for directions to see if we're heading in the right direction and if we're heading in the direction of Mount Fengyi. "
"Alright," the reinforced company's commander replied.
Ren Xiaosu whispered to Li Qingzheng, Chen Wudi, and the others, "Later on, all of you must walk to the back of the group and keep an eye on them. Don't let anyone fall behind. If anyone tries to run away, treat them as deserters and execute them on the spot. If a fight breaks out, you guys should hide to the side and not get hit by stray bullets. "
Li Qingzheng was stunned. By saying that, Ren Xiaosu clearly knew what was in the opposite mountain. And now, he was deliberately luring the private soldiers inside!
Moreover, Ren Xiaosu was sure that there would be an intense battle soon!
What was going on? How did Ren Xiaosu know about all this?
Li Qingzheng suddenly remembered that Ren Xiaosu had been going out a lot recently. Could something have changed during this period?
The private troops arrived at the entrance of the valley after walking for half an hour. The reinforced company's commander said with a smile as he walked, "I wonder which troops are actually heading into this ravine. They might even be private troops like us."
Ren Xiaosu smiled and said, "That's most likely the case."
In fact, Qing Zhen's trusted subordinates could have taken the main road. As long as they put down their weapons and negotiated with the Li Consortium, no one would kill them. However, Qing Zhen had requested that it be kept a secret to prevent third-party spies from learning about the negotiations.
After all, it would not be a good thing if the Kyung Clan and the other two families found out about the negotiations at the same time.
Therefore, the negotiating troops could only come here in secret. Only when they arrived at the designated location would Qing Zhen get in touch with the Li Consortium's higher-ups. When the time came, the Li Consortium's higher-ups would personally come to the mountains to conduct the secret negotiations.
However, Qing Zhen had no intention of negotiating with the Li Consortium at all. Instead, he wanted to kill Qing Zhen's trusted troops on the Li Consortium's turf right from the start.
As the troops headed into the mountains, the reinforced company's commander was stunned. This was because he saw the Kyung Clan's black military uniforms. In an instant, he understood that these were not private troops at all. So they were troops infiltrated by the Kyung Clan!
When the Kyung Clan soldier saw the Divine Arms troops entering, his first reaction was to raise his hands high. "We're the Kyung Clan's representatives who are here to negotiate!"
Behind them, several hundred people from the Kyung Clan's campsite also slowly walked over. Ren Xiaosu saw that they had already raised their guns diagonally and were ready to fire at any moment.
However, they were very puzzled. Were these 1,000 Divine Arms soldiers in front of them? Why did they bump into the main force of the Divine Arms Battalion?
Ren Xiaosu asked suspiciously, "How can you prove that you're here to negotiate? Why didn't we receive any notice? "
"Our frontline commander, Qing Zhen, is currently negotiating with your higher-ups. If you don't believe me, you can ask him," the Kyung Clan soldier said.
Ren Xiaosu said coldly, "Put down your guns to show your sincerity. Don't worry, our Divine Arms Battalion doesn't kill unarmed troops."
The Kyung Clan soldiers looked at one another. The Kyung Clan's commander clenched his teeth and thought for a long time. To be honest, he did not expect to encounter the Divine Arms Battalion here. But he knew very well that 400 of them did not stand much of a chance against 1,000 Divine Arms soldiers.
Since they were here to negotiate, they could only return alive if the negotiations went smoothly. Even if they managed to win and escape, could they possibly escape the Li Consortium's turf?
But even so, how could a regular army disarm just because someone said a few words?!
The atmosphere became increasingly heavy.
At this moment, the reinforced company's commander's legs and stomach were trembling. It was not only the reinforced company's commander. All of the private troops were feeling the same.
They did not expect their second battalion commander to be so bold as to impersonate the Divine Arms Battalion and persuade them to surrender! Even though they were wearing the uniforms of the Divine Arms Battalion!
In the stalemate, Ren Xiaosu suddenly said, "Why don't we both take a step back? I'll hand over our reinforced company's commander to you as a hostage to show our sincerity."
The reinforced company's commander was speechless.
How did it become his sincerity?! Whoever was willing to be his sincerity could do it!
But before he could react, he was pushed away by Ren Xiaosu and stumbled into the Kyung Clan's camp. A group of people pointed their guns at him and scared him silly!
Ren Xiaosu said coldly, "If you still think this isn't enough, then I suspect that you're not sincere at all and that you're not here to negotiate!"
At this moment, the Kyung Clan's commander said slowly, "Heed my orders and put down your weapons!"
But the moment the Kyung Clan troops put down their guns, Ren Xiaosu took out a pistol and killed the Kyung Clan's commander. The crisp sound of a gunshot reverberated in the valley. Everyone was stunned!
How could he go back on his word!
Ren Xiaosu roared, "They don't have their guns anymore! Those who killed the Kyung Clan troops will be rewarded with meritorious service. Follow me! "
The people behind him were confused. Some of them charged forward. Although some of them wanted to run, Li Qingzheng and the others were supervising them from behind. Li Qingzheng raised his gun and said with a sinister smile, "Let's see who dares to run!"
The group of people rushed forward with their guns raised. The battle was so chaotic that some people could not even react to what was going on.
However, as Ren Xiaosu charged forward fearlessly, they subconsciously followed suit and started firing at him!
When the people behind the Kyung Clan saw this, they immediately pulled out the pistols they had hidden under their armpits. Actually, they were willing to put down their guns because they still had guns hidden in their armpits. They were not really disarmed!
Ren Xiaosu, who was charging at the front, flicked his wrist, and a soldier from the reinforced company appeared in front of him to block the bullets.
The movement of the soldier's wrist was extremely subtle, and it looked like the soldier had taken the initiative to block the bullets for Ren Xiaosu.
Ren Xiaosu cried out in pain, "No!"
At this moment, the reinforced company's commander was lying on the ground with blood foaming from his mouth. He was the only one who had seen Ren Xiaosu's actions.
He said in a muffled voice, "What the fuck …"
Amidst the intense gunfire, no one could hear what the commander was saying.
