Chapter 385 Wang Xifa takes the initiative to surrender
When the Dragon and Phoenix Team slowly reached the foot of the mountain, one-tenth of the people in Wang Xifa's team chose the new team, and the rest expressed their determination to defend their territory to the death and would never be afraid of death or be ungrateful.
With the support of these people, Wang Xifa's ugly expression eased a lot. Although people die for money and birds die for food, it is understandable that those people want to find a new way out. However, after all, they have been brothers for several years, and it is still heartbreaking to betray them.
The only thing to be thankful for is that even though he was betrayed, he didn't bite back, which fulfilled the brotherhood they had maintained over the years.
As for why he didn't bite, Wang Xifa didn't want to explore the real reason. The truth is often the cruelest.
The battle outside was fierce, and the remaining brothers were about to be defeated. Wang Xifa had no choice but to let his son escort a group of elderly, weak, women and children away, so as to leave some for himself.
He knew that the three parties outside were all enemies and they would definitely die today. The only way to escape was in the back mountain, where there was a glimmer of hope. He wanted to fight for this chance of survival for his son and family.
But his naive son is a fool and refuses to leave. If his son refuses to leave, his mother, father and wife will not leave either. Well, his whole family will die here.
"Alright, this is an order. I'm your superior, not your father. There are no conditions. You must lead these hundreds of thousands of people out safely, otherwise I won't have you as my son."
Wang Xifa's son, Wang Zhe, was a mirror image of Wang Xifa. He wasn't tall, but his eyes were big. He stared intently, stiffening his neck and shouting, "I won't. At worst, I won't be your son. I won't leave anyway. If you have the guts, kill me right now."
Wang Xifa clutched his chest, nearly spitting out half a pound of blood. "You jerk! If I could kill you, why would I let you walk?" "You unfilial son! Your mom and grandparents always love you so much, but now they're in trouble and ask you to protect them, yet you're so reluctant. You idiot, do you still have a conscience?"
Wang Zhe stared with his eyes wide open and stiff neck stiffened, saying, "I'm not leaving."
The old couple of the Wang family and Wang Xifa’s wife covered their faces and cried, crying about the injustice of the world, the cruelty of God, and the fact that those damn people outside would not have a good death.
Wang Xifa sighed heavily. He didn't have time to dwell on this. His family couldn't be left behind. He reached out and called over his loyal subordinates, "Tie him up and take him away."
Wang Zhe glared at his father, angry and in pain, "I will never leave unless I die. If you have the guts, come out and tie me up." After saying that, he rushed into the battlefield in front.
"Son." Wang Xifa's wife screamed, and she collapsed on the ground, watching Wang Zhe rush into the fighting circle.
The old couple of the Wang family trembled their lips, but could not make a sound.
Wang Xifa really vomited blood this time. He swallowed the fishy-sweet taste back from his throat and stumbled back a few steps before being supported by his subordinates. "Boss, are you okay?"
Wang Xi's hands were shaking as he shook his head. "Go, bring that unfilial son back. It doesn't matter if he's missing limbs, as long as he's brought back alive."
"Don't worry, boss."
After four or five people left, Wang Xifa continued to give orders, "Count the number of people and have them escorted out immediately. Go to the back mountain. The farther the better. If possible, use my reputation to beg the Dragon and Phoenix Team. Those who stay, hold on to your lives. Every second counts."
"yes."
"Your old face is probably not very useful." A sudden voice came from the back of the camp, and everyone was startled. Were they being trapped?
He turned around quickly, his whole body tense, ready to attack.
Yunshui Yao chuckled and shook his head, "It's been such a long time since we last met, and Captain Wang's hospitality level is still so low."
Wang Xifa recognized the voice and saw who was coming. He was so shocked that he didn't react for a long time. Oh my God, was he dreaming or was he hallucinating?
"Hey, Old Wang doesn't welcome us." Ding Jiajia came over and put his arm around Wang Xifa's shoulders, acting like brothers.
Wang Xifa suddenly woke up from his dream and hugged Ding Jiajia into his arms, crying and laughing as he held her. "Welcome, welcome, you're so welcome."
The little friend simply couldn't bear to watch. Ding Jiajia's face was dark and he was being hugged by an old man. How much psychological trauma must this have caused him?
The others did not find this scene offensive, but were moved to tears. Does this mean that they are saved?
"Okay, cry slowly later. Everyone is almost dead." Lan Shiruo couldn't bear it anymore. The old man was crying so hard that she didn't know who he was embarrassing.
Wang Xifa wiped his tears and snot, leaving a yellow sand gully on his face, which was really eye-irritating.
The little friend's mouth twitched, and Ding Jiajia began to dislike herself after being hugged by Wang Xifa. This dirty look, wouldn't it be contagious?
Wang Xifa had already forgotten the man he had embraced. He was a complete scumbag and moved closer to Lan Shiruo. "Miss Lan, Mr. Ao, please save us. From now on, I, Wang Xifa, and my brothers will be at the disposal of the Dragon and Phoenix Team."
Lan Shiruo smiled, "Won't Captain Wang feel wronged?"
Wang Xifa smiled bitterly. "There's no need for a base commander. When the earthquake first started, City O suffered massive damage. I had no choice but to relocate the entire city here. We were the first base in the entire west to relocate here, so we chose the best location in this area. We're currently in the only place with access to water. I originally thought that if we slowly managed things, even if we returned to our old ways, things wouldn't be too bad. But unexpectedly, several new forces arrived. At first, it was fine. We were all new here and unfamiliar with the territory, so we knew to tread carefully. But after the territory was divided and we settled down, we carefully experienced the living environment. Not only was the environment poor, there were no new resources to exploit, but there was also no water. We could tolerate it for a day or two, but after a while, we couldn't stand it anymore. So we set our sights on us."
"We have groundwater here, but it's not much, just enough for everyone in the team to drink every day. I knew it wouldn't work if I didn't give it up, so I shared some with other factions. At first, they were very friendly and would express their gratitude, but gradually, they became dissatisfied. They kept asking for water with various excuses, using threats, inducements, and everything else. Later, they even started to snatch it away. One-on-one, we wouldn't necessarily lose, but they were so despicable that they ganged up on us. Over and over again, the team suffered heavy casualties, and with no food, water, or medicine, we were really exhausted. We finally decided that whoever could leave alive was the best."
"I've already prepared for the worst. The worst that could happen is that I die, leaving my brothers behind. I didn't expect to run into you guys in such a sudden turn of events. It's like a dream. These brothers under my command are all loyal and have done me a favor. I have nothing else to ask for but that they all survive. I can't thank you enough for giving them a chance to live. How could I feel wronged? Besides, working for your Dragon and Phoenix Team, everyone would be envious, jealous, and resentful. How could I feel wronged?"
Lan Shiruo smiled. Wang Xifa was a man who knew the current situation and was not greedy for power. Such a person would have an easy life. "In that case, Longfeng City welcomes everyone. Now that you are all from Longfeng City, you will naturally not allow others to bully you. Friends, take action."
