Chapter 977 Scared



Lin Song was speechless for a long time.

He gritted his teeth so hard that there was a rattling sound between them.

However, he did not make things difficult for his men, but took out his mobile phone directly.

"Chief District Officer! I'm Lin Song!"

"Um."

There was a rather hoarse voice on the other end of the phone, and it sounded like the person was quite old.

District Chief of Region B, Pei Hongshen.

"Director General! I just received your message. I heard that Yecheng has clearly stated that they will not interfere in the feud between us and Ma Yuxiang!"

Lin Song gritted his teeth and said in a stern tone, "From Ye Cheng's perspective, he probably also hopes that we can have a fight with Ma Yuxiang!"

"Um."

Pei Hongshen's answer remained simple.

"So, can we just..."

"Wait a minute."

Pei Hongshen knew what Lin Song wanted to say and interrupted him directly.

Lin Song squeezed the phone tightly and didn't respond.

He was waiting for the advice of his district chief.

"Chief of Staff Lin."

Pei Hongshen's voice was a little weak, as if he was ill. "There's something strange about Ma Yuxiang and his men's withdrawal this time."

"Director General, I think they withdrew because they knew they didn't have the ability to fight us head-on!"

Lin Song said in a deep voice: "Now all the masters in the entire Lower City have almost become transparent. Even if there is a master hidden in Ma Yuxiang's place, it is at most a [Thousand Souls Level]!"

"Alright! I imagined them to be a little stronger. Even if they hid two [Thousand Souls], plus Ma Yuxiang, there would only be three in total!"

"We're not at a disadvantage in terms of the number of Thousand Souls! What's more, we have even more warriors!"

"The Southern Defense Force, at most, only has 200,000 men! Even if their combat prowess is high, we can still overwhelm them with sheer numbers!"

"What's more, we have the advantage in numbers when it comes to high-level [Hundred Souls Level] talents!"

"From any angle, they can never be our opponent in a head-on confrontation!"

"We allowed them to act rashly before because most of our combat power was tied up in Yecheng!"

"But now, Yecheng has made it clear that he won't interfere. What are we waiting for?!"

This is not the attitude a subordinate should have when talking to his superior.

However, Lin Song couldn't control himself.

If Ma Yuxiang had just taken away the supplies, Lin Song would not have been so excited. He could even have said like the district chief, wait a moment and think about it again.

But……

What did Ma Yuxiang do?!

Anyone who sees their own place being destroyed in this way would find it difficult to calm down the anger in their heart!

More importantly, if you can still endure at this time, what will the soldiers below think?

"I know everything you said."

Pei Hongshen's voice was still very soft: "But, what if this is a trap set by Ma Yuxiang?"

Lin Songhu frowned and said nothing.

Pei Hongshen continued, "I've also heard about what happened in the four areas over there, but have you ever considered that perhaps Ma Yuxiang did this on purpose to provoke us?"

Lin Song had thought about this possibility.

At this time, Pei Hongshen also began to express his own views.

"As you just said, the power that Ma Yuxiang currently controls is incomparable to ours in terms of absolute hard power."

"No matter how strong he is, he is only a defense force of District F, while we have the power of an entire district."

"At the same time, we are not as weak as Region C. We possess the strength of a complete region."

"Then think about it again. How could Ma Yuxiang not be aware of these things? Why did he dare to provoke us?"

"So, he had already made up his mind not to confront us head-on. Once they mess up our mentality, he will win."

"Because he's just waiting for us to fall into his trap!"

Even when he said this, Pei Hongshen's emotions remained unchanged, as if he was describing something that happened to someone else.

However, his words did not make Lin Song give up his previous idea.

"Director, let me ask you, even if there's a trap over there, do you think... we have no chance of winning?"

"There's definitely a chance of winning."

Pei Hongshen sighed: "But once we fall into their trap, our losses... will be huge!"

Lin Song's face became even darker.

Pei Hongshen added, "Perhaps Ma Yuxiang anticipated this and knew we didn't want to suffer excessive losses, so he acted so recklessly."

"Chief of Staff Lin, there's no need for us to get so excited. The supplies in Region C have always been very scarce."

"We just need to let them come here and make trouble, and wait for them to use up all their supplies."

"By then... they will inevitably lose their composure and collapse without a fight."

When Lin Song heard this, the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up.

"Director General, you're worried that if we suffer heavy losses, we won't be able to sell it for a good price in Yecheng, right?"

Pei Hongshen fell silent.

But Lin Song could hear that the other person's breathing seemed to become heavier.

"Director General, you're also worried that General Pei, who has just been promoted to the Thousand Souls Level, will encounter an accident in this battle, right?"

"Lin Song."

Pei Hongshen's tone finally became a little heavier.

"You should be well aware that you are merely the Chief of Staff of District B, and I... am the District Chief."

Lin Song didn't say anything, but he sneered.

Pei Hongshen continued to remind him, "Your position is not irreplaceable."

"Yeah, I understand."

Lin Song took the phone away and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Your Excellency the Chief District Director!"

After saying that, Lin Song hung up the phone without caring about the other party's attitude.

Then, after a brief hesitation, Lin Song walked towards a man wearing a commander's uniform.

When the man saw Lin Song walking by, he gave him a questioning look.

"What's the meaning?"

"The old man is scared."

Lin Song gritted his teeth and clenched his fists: "He is afraid that his family's interests will be affected, and he is also afraid that his grandson will die."

The man frowned slightly.

Lin Song said in a deep voice: "He's almost dead, and he's sitting there refusing to get down. That's fine!"

"Now my house has been burned down, but I still have to endure it..."

Lin Song's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he said to the man in a deep voice: "Will you follow me?"

The man stared at Lin Song for a long time, then suddenly sneered.

He just raised his eyes and glanced at the ruins.

"The lower city is already in such a mess, what else is there to be afraid of?"

Lin Song's eyes flashed with cruelty!

"Alright, then let's kidnap Pei Yongxing first! Force that old bastard to send out the troops!"
