Chapter 162 A Desperate Struggle



When Xia Xiaobao arrived with a team to besiege the boiler area, the brothers guarding the boiler area were all slaughtered by Hu Tianhao.

Hu Tianhao was in high spirits and ordered the boiler to be shut down immediately.

Once the boiler stops, the temperature in the steel plant will drop rapidly, and most of them will freeze to death before long, at which point they won't need to lift a finger.

Xia Xiaobao looked at the dozen or so dead brothers, his eyes filled with hatred and rage.

Because it was unknown where the enemy would attack first, Xia Xiaobao arranged manpower in each district so that they wouldn't be wiped out in one fell swoop if attacked.

Xia Xiaobao secretly ordered all the doors to be locked, trapping the enemy inside before dealing with them in one go.

After doing all this, peek through a hidden gap to observe what's happening inside.

Xia Xiaobao easily located an old man who was treated with utmost respect by everyone. He knew that the old man was probably the leader of the group.

So, where is the most dangerous person?

Before his death, his teammate said that the man was exceptionally tall and handsome, with amazing fighting ability!

Xia Xiaobao still vividly remembers the way his teammate died, his brains splattered everywhere...

This man is the real adversary; Xia Xiaobao won't be able to rest easy until he finds him.

So he frowned and searched several more times, but still couldn't find such a man.

Is he not inside?

Old Tan held the hunting rifle in his hand, his palms were sweaty...

He was very nervous. Normally, when he went into the mountains, he was not afraid at all, even if he encountered a big black bear. But today he was going to use a gun against people, and he was a little hesitant to do it.

With over a hundred people trapped inside, Lao Tan couldn't figure out Xia Xiaobao's next move.

He gently approached Xia Xiaobao and whispered, "The hunting rifle... do you want to take it?"

"Uncle Tan, you have experience, you should keep it. I'm a little worried about District One, should we send someone over to check it out?"

"Should I go take a look?"

"No, we can't do without you here. I'd better go find Xiao Wu."

After Xia Xiaobao finished speaking, he waved to the young man in the distance: "Xiao Wu, come here."

A young man with thick eyebrows walked over quietly: "Brother Bao!"

"Could you go check out the situation in District One for me? I'm a little worried."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

"Be careful, and come back and tell me if anything seems amiss."

The young man with thick eyebrows nodded and immediately disappeared into the night...

After Xiao Wu left, Xia Xiaobao looked up at the sky. Dawn would break in half an hour; it was time to deal with the people inside…

Hu Tianhao, who was inside, was unaware of all this. When he was preparing to attack the next station, he found that he could not get out because all the entrances were locked from the outside.

The apostle who went to check was a little panicked and stumbled back to report: "Report, the back door is locked too! We can't open any of the doors, what should we do?"

A flicker of fear crossed Hu Tianhao's eyes. Staring at the dark door, he dared not go to check it. He looked up at the equally dark high window, which was two meters off the ground, making it difficult to escape.

Everyone present awaited his command; silence reigned...

Hu Tianhao watched for a week, then a chill ran down his spine; he realized he was trapped…

"Where is Commander Xu? Is he here?"

"Report, Commander Xu is not here."

Hu Tianhao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. Fortunately, Xu Neng was not trapped inside. As long as he opened a door, he could turn the situation around!

However, contrary to Hu Tianhao's expectations, Xu Neng was on his way to District One.

He knew that going head-to-head with the steel mills was too risky, so he figured it would be better to infiltrate them and see if there were any leverage he could use.

Chen Nian was initially able to keep up, but then he deliberately slowed down. Xiao Gao, who was ordered to keep an eye on Chen Nian, became somewhat annoyed by his dawdling.

"What are you trying to do now? Hurry up and keep up!"

Chen Nian's face showed a pained expression as he clutched his stomach and said, "My stomach hurts a little. Can I go to the restroom?"

"What a lazy donkey! It's all about pissing and peeing!" Xiao Gao's disdainful gaze deeply stung Chen Nian, who bent over and tried to head towards the side road.

Xiao Gao immediately shouted, "Where are you going?"

"I can't hold it in anymore. You come with me. I'll come find you as soon as I've sorted things out," Chen Nian said as he jogged.

Remembering Xu Neng's instructions, Xiao Gao became increasingly suspicious and immediately followed, saying, "It's dangerous here. How can you go alone? I'll go with you!"

Chen Nian felt a chill run down his spine as he watched Xiao Gao approach, instantly realizing that he was there to keep an eye on him.

Luckily, I was prepared, otherwise I would have been really at their mercy. I might as well go all the way and let them come if they want!

He forced a polite smile and said, "Okay, then you can come."

The two of them jogged into a small path, one after the other.

Chen Nian found a secluded spot, took off his pants, and squatted down. Xiao Gao instinctively turned his back.

Unexpectedly, Chen Nian suddenly stood up, grabbed Xiao Gao's neck from behind, and then immediately covered his mouth and nose with a piece of cloth.

Xiao Gao tried to raise his hand to struggle, but immediately lost consciousness...

Chen Nian stared coldly at Xiao Gao, who was sprawled on the ground. He slowly put on his pants, then squatted down and took out the blunt knife that Xiao Gao had given him before he left.

"This blade is so sharp it would be difficult to even peel an apple. I wonder if it would be difficult to pierce a body?"

The thought of his father's curled-up body in the cave drove Chen Nian to madness again:

"If you hadn't stood by and watched me die, Dad might have survived. If he had known what would happen, would he still have made that choice?"

Chen Nian gripped the knife and slowly approached Xiao Gao's chest...

With a "thud," Xiao Gao's phone slipped out of his pocket and fell to the ground.

Chen Nian stared at the phone, wondering if using it would allow him to get Wang Feifei to show herself.

He picked up the phone, checked the contacts, and sure enough, there was Wang Feifei's number...

...

Dawn was fast approaching, and Xia Xiaobao, who was guarding outside the boiler area, finally made up his mind—invaders, kill!

Xia Xiaobao called over Lao Tan and pulled him to the gap:

“Uncle Tan, come over here and look. There’s an old man inside. He must be their leader.”

Old Tan squinted and looked inside, and sure enough, he saw the old man in the middle of the crowd.

Did you see it clearly?

Old Tan nodded: "I see it clearly."

"How confident are you that you can take him down with one shot?"

Old Tan turned to look at Xia Xiaobao in surprise. Was he being asked to kill someone?

Xia Xiaobao saw Lao Tan's fear, and his eyes became even more determined: "To catch the thief, you must first catch the king. Once he's dead, they'll be like headless flies, and they'll be easier to deal with."

"Uncle Tan, I know your marksmanship, can I give it a try?"

Old Tan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. He carefully climbed the ladder to the window and began to aim.

The night before dawn is very dark...

Trapped indoors, Hu Tianhao was anxiously waiting for Xu Neng to break through the encirclement. He looked around frantically, hoping to find a way out.

He also looked at the high window. Although the window was two meters high, it was not impossible to get out by stepping on someone's shoulder!

Unfortunately, the darkness concealed his view of someone outside the window, pointing a gun at him...
