Dengan kondisi perang yang kejam, pembantaian warga sipil biasa masih umum terjadi di zaman modern, seringkali, akan ada berita tentang warga sipil yang menderita akibat perang. Dalam sejarah Tiongkok yang paling baru, ada Pembantaian Nanking, atau “Pemerkosaan Nanking” seperti yang lebih umum dikenal.

Chen Sheng Yong khawatir bahwa dalam kemarahannya, Yue Zhong mungkin akan membantai seluruh kota. Meskipun Chen Sheng Yong sendiri bukanlah orang suci, dia tidak tega menyaksikan lebih dari seratus ribu warga negaranya dibantai.

Yue Zhong merenung dalam hati sebelum menjawab: “Semua bajingan yang tangannya telah berlumuran darah orang Tiongkok, aku pasti tidak akan mengampuni mereka! Mereka yang tidak ikut serta, baiklah, aku bisa membiarkan mereka hidup. Ini adalah batasku. Kembali dan beri tahu Chen Sheng Yong. Juga, jika dia melayaniku dengan sepenuh hati, aku bisa memberinya posisi komandan. Kembali!”

Jika Chen Sheng Yong benar-benar tunduk kepada Yue Zhong, dia akan mendapatkan kesempatan untuk memimpin ratusan ribu orang Vietnam yang selamat bersama Yue Zhong. Memberikannya posisi bukanlah hal yang sulit. Pasukan bisa besar atau kecil, bisa terdiri dari 900 atau lebih dari 1.000 orang. Mereka bisa diberi senjata jarak dekat, atau peralatan modern yang canggih.

Selama Chen Sheng Yong bergabung dengan Yue Zhong, Yue Zhong memiliki cara untuk mengendalikannya.

Li Ming Zong menjawab dengan hormat: “Ya!!”

Tepat ketika Li Ming Zong hendak meninggalkan ruangan, suara dingin Yue Zhong terdengar dari belakang: “Satu hal lagi. Aku menginginkan kepala Wuyan Hong sebagai bukti penyerahan Chen Sheng Yong. Jika dia tidak bisa melakukannya, kemampuannya terlalu lemah. Maka aku hanya akan memberinya posisi yang lebih lemah. Aku memberinya waktu sehari untuk mempertimbangkan, jika dia tidak membawa pasukannya, maka jangan salahkan aku karena tidak baik hati.”

Li Ming Zong menjawab: “Mengerti!”

Dan Dong mengerutkan kening dan bertanya: “Pemimpin! Apakah Anda masih membutuhkan saya untuk memimpin pasukan ke distrik itu?”

Yue Zhong menjawab dengan tenang: “Persiapkan diri Anda. Tunggu perintah saya.”

Kata-kata Chen Sheng Yong masih belum bisa dipercaya. Yue Zhong telah menyusun rencananya, begitu ada masalah di pihak Chen Sheng Yong, dia akan menggunakan kekuatan untuk memusnahkan setiap prajurit Tentara Vietnam.

=========

Di dalam ruang bawah tanah di Distrik Lin Yang.

Chen Sheng Yong mengerutkan kening sambil bertanya kepada Li Ming Zong: “Dia benar-benar mengatakan itu?”

“Ya! Raja Elang!” jawab Li Ming Zong.

Di dalam ruang bawah tanah, hanya ada mereka berdua.

Chen Sheng Yong mendengar kata-kata Li Ming Zong, dan alisnya semakin berkerut, sambil menutup matanya.

Li Ming Zong saw that and suggested: “Eagle King! Why don’t we just bring our men and join Yue Zhong. Becoming a vice-commander is already not too bad.”

Wuyan Hong might be seen as a beast and scum to foreigners, but to a large number of the Vietnamese survivors in Lang Son City, he was their spiritual leader and hero.

Li Ming Zong could instantly tell that Chen Sheng Yong was reluctant to kill Wuyan Hong. Because the moment he did that, he would be branded as a traitor and cursed for it.

Chen Sheng Yong mulled for a long while, before opening his eyes and eyed Li Ming Zong, saying: “Go get Wuyan Hong to come over.”

“Yes!” Li Ming Zong became alarmed, but he still saluted respectfully.

“No!! I think, I should go and see him!” Chen Sheng Yong hesitated before standing up and walking out with huge strides.

Chen Sheng Yong brought two soldiers as they came to the room that Wuyan Hong was residing in.

At this time, Wuyan Hong was lying in bed, while there were 4 Level 30 Enhancers standing quietly, guarding him.

Wuyan Hong’s ribcage had shattered, but he had taken a number of blood essences before, and his Vitality wasn’t too weak, and had managed to hang on with his constitution.

Wuyan Hong saw Chen Sheng Yong walking over and his brows arched, eyeing the soldiers behind Chen Sheng Yong and asked: “Old Chen, what’s the situation?”

“Stand down!” Chen Sheng Yong gave the order to his guards.

The 2 soldiers immediately left the room.

Chen Sheng Yong eyed Wuyan Hong, before looking at the 4 experts beside his bed.

Wuyan Hong turned his gaze towards his guarsd and gave an order indifferently: “You guys stand down as well!”

With that, the other 4 guards also immediately left.

Chen Sheng Yong came over to Wuyan Hong’s side, his face full of concern and worry: “How’s your body? Can you hold on?”

These past 3 days, Wuyan Hong and Chen Sheng Yong had fought hard side by side, and both had grown to respect and care for each other. Wuyan Hong was thus not at odds with Chen Sheng Yong coming too close.

Wuyan Hong’s face fell as he replied slowly: “My condition isn’t too good!! I’m afraid that I won’t be able to participate in any intense fighting for the next 2 months.”

Chen Sheng Yong hesitated a while before saying: “Old Wu!! I have something I would like to say.”

Wuyan Hong replied: “I know you have something on your mind! What is it?”

“My apologies! I’ll borrow your head!” Chen Sheng Yong’s eyes flash with an apologetic look, as his right hand shot forwards with lightning speed, piercing Wuyan Hong’s neck.

Before Wuyan Hong could even react, his head was already sliced off from the sudden attack by Chen Sheng Yong.

Blood sprayed everywhere as his decapitated head rolled to the floor, his face still wearing a smile. He had never imagined, just a mere second ago, Chen Sheng Yong, who he had thought was a close friend, would kill him just like that.

He, who had rose to power, and lorded over Lang Son City, the ruler of over 150,000 survivors, was just killed.

Chen Sheng Yong bowed towards Wuyan Hong’s corpse with an aggrieved expression: “I’m sorry!! Old Wu, I need to give our Vietnamese people a way out. Although this was unfair to you, I have no choice.”

After which, Chen Sheng Yong then took off all of Wuyan Hong’s equipment, and kept them in a box.

After finishing this, Chen Sheng Yong took huge strides as he walked out.

The moment he went out, his blade went for one of the guards standing outside with lightning speed.

The guard had no way of reacting before his life was taken away.

The 2 experts who had followed Chen Sheng Yong earlier acted out at the same time. One of them suddenly grabbed the neck of one of Wuyan Hong’s subordinates, twisting it viciously. Another took out a sharp dagger and sliced the throat of another guard.

The remaining expert had no time to react, when Chen Sheng Yong already used his blade to slice off his head.

“Do it!!” After killing those 4 experts under Wuyan Hong, he pulled out a walkie-talkie and coldly barked out.

With Chen Sheng Yong’s orders, his men began launching a frenzied assault on Wuyan Hong’s remaining forces.

As they didn’t expect an attack from within, the troops of Wuyan Hong suffered greatly, as a number of the higher-ranking officials were taken out in a short time. Coupled with the fact that their leader Wuyan Hong had been killed, they were plunged into chaos.

Chen Sheng Yong knew that the remaining troops of Wuyan Hong were extreme nationalists as well, and the moment any of them were allowed to escape, it would be a source of threat to him. Hence, he hardened his heart and got his men to take care of all of them. He was truly deciding to cast his lot in with Yue Zhong.

News of the internal strife within Lin Yang District soon made it out.

“They’ve started to fight amongst themselves!!” Bai Xiao Sheng held up a pair of binoculars as he eyed the events unfolding in Lin Yang District, gloating over their misfortune.

“Dogs biting each other.” Gan Tao eyed the direction, before turning around to ask Yue Zhong in seriousness: “Leader! Are you really going to let Chen Sheng Yong join us?”

Gan Tao had lost many good brothers to the Vietnamese, and he was filled with hatred towards the Vietnamese. When he heard that Yue Zhong wanted to recruit Chen Sheng Yong, he could not hold it in.

Yue Zhong replied: “Of course! As long as he accomplishes what I’ve told him to.”

Gan Tao tidak puas dan terus mendesak: “Pemimpin! Dia orang Vietnam! Rekan-rekan Tionghoa kita telah dibunuh oleh orang-orang Vietnam ini, apakah Anda tidak ingin membalas dendam?”

Mendengar kata-kata itu, banyak perwira menoleh ke arah Yue Zhong.

Faksi Yue Zhong dibangun atas dasar menyelamatkan banyak korban selamat Tionghoa dari tangan orang Vietnam, dan para korban selamat ini adalah pendukungnya yang paling setia. Banyak perwira militer yang naik pangkat dari kalangan korban selamat yang diselamatkan ini.

Yue Zhong mempertahankan pendiriannya yang teguh: “Tentu saja! Mereka yang telah bertindak melawan sesama orang Tionghoa kita, saya tidak akan membiarkan satu pun lolos.”

Mendengar janjinya, gelombang kegelisahan di hati para perwira itu mereda. Yue Zhong telah memimpin mereka dalam kemenangan berturut-turut, dan mereka dipenuhi rasa hormat dan kekaguman kepada pria ini. Dia tidak pernah mengingkari janjinya, dan mereka mempercayainya sepenuh hati.

Pan Jin Yong menghampiri Yue Zhong dan bertanya: “Pemimpin, haruskah kita pergi membantu?”

Saat itu, dua faksi tentara Vietnam sedang bertempur sengit, dan bahkan jika Yue Zhong mengirim pasukannya tanpa menggunakan artileri, dia akan mampu mengalahkan mereka dengan mudah.

Yue Zhong melihat ke arah Distrik Lin Yang dan berkata dengan lembut: “Tidak perlu!”

Setelah Pan Jin Yong pergi, dia merenung dan mengerti bahwa intinya adalah Yue Zhong berharap melihat kedua belah pihak menderita kerugian besar.

Di dalam Distrik Lin Yang, setelah pertempuran sengit berlanjut selama beberapa jam lagi, pada akhirnya, Chen Sheng Yong yang meraih kemenangan karena pihaknya sudah siap.

Awalnya ada 2.600 tentara Vietnam, tetapi sekarang hanya tersisa 1.300 lebih.

Di bawah kepemimpinan Chen Sheng Yong, para tentara itu segera menghampiri Yue Zhong untuk menyerah. Pada akhirnya, semua peralatan dan senjata Vietnam jatuh ke tangan Yue Zhong.

“Pemimpin! Ini kepala Wuyan Hong!” Chen Sheng Yong mengeluarkan kotak itu dan memberikannya kepada Yue Zhong.

Yue Zhong membuka kotak itu dan melihat isinya, menemukan wajah Wuyan Hong yang buas dan jelek, masih tersenyum, lalu dengan santai menutup kotak itu dan berkata dengan acuh tak acuh: “Bagus sekali!”
