"Don’t get nervous. Rember to maintain formation when the ti cos. Don’t lose your heads in the battle. If you beco bloodthirsty, retreat imdiately upon hearing the order. Got it?" Jiang Chunzi instructed several newly joined Patrol Guard young mbers.
Relying on his excellent personal abilities and handling skills, he was promoted by Song Changming to his assistant.
Of course, it’s just temporary, as even he, the Patrol Captain, has not yet shed the temporary title.
"It’s usually hard to earn even a small rit, but now the opportunity is here. Each enemy you kill is a rit, and it will be recorded in the books eventually.
If you’re looking to achieve success or earn money and silver, tonight, keep your spirits high, and you’ll get what you desire..."
Song Changming entrusted the task of pre-battle encouragent to Jiang Chunzi.
This is one of the assistant’s responsibilities, while he needed only to lie down, close his eyes, and rest, conserving his energy.
The veteran Patrol Guards in the team didn’t need motivation. They had their experience and thods to adjust their mindset and calm themselves.
They smiled at the nervous and frightened looks of the newcors, finding it amusing, as if seeing themselves when they first joined the Patrol Guard.
"Not many are like our Song, who stands out right from the start..."
He Shouxin said softly to the person beside him while checking his sword.
He had been in the Patrol Guard position for nine years. Among the young people he had seen, Song Changming was the most powerful.
Compared to him, these young Patrol Guards, nervous and biting their teeth, were what ordinary people ought to be.
The night deepened, and the sound of three gongs rang within the Patrol Armor Bureau.
"Let’s go." Song Changming opened his eyes, his gaze icy, picked up the long knife beside him, and said.
In the courtyard, fifteen Patrol Guards stood up, put on armor plates and helts, ready for action.
Song Changming led the way out, and everyone followed closely behind.
The sound of war boots on the ground was deep and resonant.
Along the way, they happened to et Lv Gang and his n, rging into one group.
"Tonight’s battle is likely to be quite fierce, be very careful." Lv Gang said in a low voice as he walked alongside Song Changming.
"You too." Song Changming nodded, catching a glimpse of Wang Xianwen following Lv Gang.
It seed Wang Xianwen realized Song Changming was looking at him, and he turned his head slightly, avoiding eye contact.
Soon, the other Patrol Guard teams all gathered, forming a hundred-man square formation when they reached outside the Patrol Guard Bureau.
This hundred Patrol Guards were all martial artists!
Against ordinary people, they could each fight five to ten enemies, their combat power was quite good.
Finally, Liang Chuan Mountain, fully ard, personally brought a group of thirty armored warriors arriving quickly.
The leading armored warrior was recognized by Song Changming as the Chief Patrol Guard he had treated before, Zhou Sixin.
Therefore, the identity of these people was self-evident.
They were the Patrol Guards of the General Departnt!
"Proceed according to plan, begin!" Liang Chuan Mountain glanced over everyone, without further delay, directly issued the order.
The Patrol Guard formation began to act imdiately, jogging along with torches.
At a street intersection, the formation disbanded, and each Patrol Guard team headed towards different street lanes.
Song Changming led his n into a deep, deserted alley.
The alley was narrow, allowing only two people to walk side by side, the friction of armor creating a faint clattering sound.
By then, everyone in the team was silent, and as they got closer to the destination, the heavy murderous intent in their eyes beca increasingly clear and intense.
After passing several hundred ters in the alley, just before exiting, Song Changming stopped.
Ahead lay Nine Bends Association’s territory, going any further posed a risk of being discovered.
Next was the wait, waiting for all Patrol Guard teams to get into position. Once the ti ca, they would all rush out.
Jiang Chunzi held a lit red incense stick, each team had one as well.
As ti passed, the red incense burned shorter and shorter, until it finally burned out. Song Changming showed murderous intent, drew his knife, and stepped out of the alley first.
Behind him, Jiang Chunzi tossed away the incense ash, was the second to draw his sword stepping out of the alley.
The other Patrol Guards followed suit, the sound of long knives being drawn echoed one after another.
Most of the Nine Bends Association’s gang mbers congregated inside this residential area.
One large courtyard housed the core mbers of Nine Bends Association, including the nine leaders, known as Nine Bends Stars.
The only information they failed to collect was about the nominal leader of Nine Bends Association, who never showed up, remained mysterious, and might be hiding in this large courtyard.
The alley Song Changming and his team took led directly to the side wall of Nine Bends Association’s courtyard, no more than ten ters away.
As they approached, the sounds of slaughter from various directions, along with the panicked shouts of Nine Bends Association’s gang mbers, beca audible.
Clearly, so Patrol Guard teams were already engaging the Nine Bends Association mbers.
This outer wall was nearly four ters high. With long strides, Song Changming leaped forward, soared high, and deftly flipped over the high wall like a flying swallow.
The other Patrol Guards looked at each other, surprised at this new skill of their leader.
"Hurry, don’t delay!" Jiang Chunzi reacted first, urging them.
Only then did the rest scramble over the courtyard wall using both hands and feet.
"Who goes there!"
A few Nine Bends Association gang mbers carrying knives happened to pass by and shouted loudly upon seeing soone climbing over the wall.
In response, there was a flash of knife light, drawing a silver line in the air.
The one who shouted didn’t even have ti to react before his head was separated from his body.
"It’s the Patrol Armor Bureau!"
Soone recognized the distinct armored official uniforms worn by the group, unique to the Patrol Armor Bureau.
Song Changming’s long knife dripped with blood, he maneuvered, striking again.
The second speaker also fell instantly.
The remaining three gang mbers watched with horror.
"Fight!" The three charged forward with their knives, faces twisted in nace.
However, they were t with several crossbow arrows shooting at them, piercing right through.
"Chief!" Jiang Chunzi put away his hand crossbow and advanced quickly.
"No problem." Song Changming glanced at the direction of the main gate of the courtyard, where, unsurprisingly, the sound of conflict was most intense.
As per the plan, the Patrol Guard teams led by Lv Gang, Zhao Dezhi, and Zhang Sihai, as well as Zhou Sixin brought by Liang Chuan Mountain were there, serving as the main battlefield for this night raid.
They were tasked with outright annihilating the main forces of Nine Bends Association, drawing all their attention.
Afterward, the three Patrol Guard teams led by Song Changming, Qian Wen, and Zhu Bairen were to flank and encircle from the sides, further wearing down and breaking through Nine Bends Association’s defense lines.
Their goal wasn’t to slaughter every mber of Nine Bends Association, numbering in the hundreds.
Instead, they only needed to capture and eliminate a group of core mbers, including those nine leaders, within the shortest ti, and Nine Bends Association would collapse.
