Before, including Rubio, other families were watching Lascano's actions.
As long as the troublemaker Song Heping died, the alliance of the four major families would imdiately operate and fully deal with the Sinoloa Group in the north.
Unexpectedly, Song did not die, and Lascano was captured.
Just as these family leaders were startled and planned to wait and see without taking the lead, what happened next nearly made their eyes pop out of their sockets.
Lascano was released.
It was said that he hadn't been tortured at all, not even a pinky finger was missing, and he returned fully intact to his old den.
Fanni saw it then.
This Song's thods were too sinister.
He could have completely killed Lascano to intimidate the four major families.
But he deliberately let him go.
Not only did he release him, but he also courteously expelled him...
This is...
His strategy was sky-high.
Sure enough, for so reason, Sanchez suspiciously ended up betraying Lascano and the headquarters location of the Los Zetas Organization to the military police.
The final outco was that the military police failed to capture Lascano and the others, instead, they escaped.
Their escape resulted in blood and violence.
That night, Sanchez and the Senior Police Officer involved in the siege operation were ambushed and killed.
And the Los Zetas Organization seed not satisfied with all this.
They now moved underground, launching attacks on the Templar Knights.
However, even though the Templar Knights had as many as eighty thousand gang mbers, they couldn't cope with the over one thousand Los Zetas mbers.
Because they couldn't find them, Lascano now hid in the shadows, biting whenever he had the chance, then retreating after striking.
This made it impossible for a large gang like the Templar Knights to react.
Los Zetas is a nimble organization, mostly comprised of retired military personnel.
They are well-organized and possess explosive combat capabilities.
The most terrifying aspect is that they execute attack missions exactly like military special operations.
Precise, swift, and ruthless.
In just a few days, the Templar Knights had already suffered six attacks.
Among them, one core mber of the group was decapitated, over two hundred gang mbers died, three hundred more were injured, four warehouses burned down, two arms caches were destroyed, causing a total loss of over eight hundred million US dollars.
Yet even so, the Los Zetas Organization still vanished like a ghost, completely unlocatable for a direct assault.
This left the major families feeling like they were shadowboxing, utterly clueless.
"Fanni! Why are you silent!? I didn't bring you here to admire the seascape! I want you to give ideas! Ideas!"
"Ah..."
Fanni, those cunning eyes of his swiveled and a cunning smile appeared as he said,"Boss, I heard we lost a lot of stuff, but it's not like the group is out of money. You shouldn't be so jittery, what exactly happened?"
Rubio steadied his emotions and said,"Fanni, I wouldn't co to you if it wasn't serious, but the group has been facing big problems recently. It's not just because Lascano is targeting us; if it were only him, we could've simply increased our guard or even put a bounty on his head. But..."
"But what?"
"There are troubles in Colombia and the United States."
Rubio downed his beer in one gulp, then furiously threw the can down from the balcony.
Fanni frowned, "Colombia? United States?"
"Yes," Rubio said, "Many drug trafficking groups in Colombia have stopped cooperating with us, especially the two biggest anti-governnt ard forces. They even said anyone who dares to work with us... No, anyone who dares to work with a few of our groups, they'll kill. FUCK! They're absolutely mad! These guys have worked with us for so many years, and now because of that Song kid, they completely cut off business with us!"
"Song again?" Fanni's brows furrowed tighter: "So, what's the situation in the United States?"
"Fanni, Balrot is dead, and his organization has fallen into Song's hands. A lot of our smuggling channels on the US-xico border were controlled by Balrot. Now, Song has cut off cooperation with us, and we've had to find our own routes to the United States. But recently, on the Texas front, our smuggling channels have been constantly hit by the police and the DEA. Out of ten tons shipped, less than twenty percent arrives successfully. If this continues, our financial resources will be severed! "
Fanni nodded slightly, understanding the situation, "No need to ask further. The only one who could get the Aricans to step up their offensive against us is that Mr. Song."
"That damn China man!" Rubio gritted his teeth so loudly they were almost cracking: "I'm going to kill him! Offer the most money, hire the fiercest international assassin, or rcenaries, but we have to take him down! As long as he lives, I can't have good days!"
Fanni asked, "If that's the case, how big do you think our chances are to kill him?"
"He's not God! Even if he were, he wouldn't last here in xico!" Rubio said with loathing, "I refuse to believe no one can kill him!"
Fanni cautioned, "I understand the principle, but have you considered, even a tough guy like Lascano, deploying his organization's elite forces to ambush Song Heping's convoy, couldn't take him down but ended up captured by him? If you think about posting the highest bounty on the Dark Web to kill him, wouldn't he strike first to counter you? Keep in mind, we're already troubled enough with just one Lascano, do we need to provoke a more terrifying Song Heping with CIA backing? Is it worth it?"
Rubio froze.
He suddenly felt like soone had knocked his head with a wine bottle, buzzing.
After a long while, he said, "You seem to make so sense..."
Fanni said, "In our line of work, we can't just rely on brute force. Look at Song, he's also vanished, just like he's watching us fight each other from the sidelines, waiting for us big families to inflict mutual destruction. We claim to be the four big family alliances, but look at Leva and Omar, who now is eagerly confronting Song? If you really wanted to take action against Song, it'd be like being the bird that sticks its head out, inviting trouble."
Rubio was stunned again.
Fanni said, "People from China are said to be very slippery and skilled in tactics, and now it's quite clear that Song holds a stronger position than us. It's better we don't touch this bad luck."
Rubio reluctantly cried out, "So we just sit here and get beaten up, waiting to die!?"
"That's not what I said..."
Rubio asked, "Do you have a plan?"
Fanni thought for a mont and said, "I do have one, just not sure if you're willing to listen."
Rubio said, "With our situation like this, why do you think I called you? It's to give advice, just say it!"
Fanni looked at the distant blue vast sea, took a breath of the slightly fishy sea breeze, and spread his hands, "If you can't beat them, join them."
Rubio was dumbstruck, "Huh?!"
Fanni turned to look at him and said, "We were already living quite well before opposing the CIA. Didn't this whole developnt stem from Shorty, that idiot, insisting on taking the lead to oppose the Aricans? If we hadn't provoked the Aricans, Song wouldn't have co here, and Shorty wouldn't have turned into a coward and surrendered. Now that he's surrendered, what are we holding out for? Just because one of our senior mbers died during a jailbreak?"
Rubio thought for a long ti, then suddenly slapped his hand heavily on the railing, "Damn, it seems to be the case… The trouble Shorty brought, now he's good, surrendered first! Fuck his whole family!"
