The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 387: Death Here Is Their Fate

Wen Bingzhong and others were located behind a main street, separated from the Army Corps by a row of buildings.

This prevented the enemy from using artillery to bombard, and at the same time, if the enemy wanted to cross, they would need to attack from the streets and buildings, and close-range small-scale conflicts were what Chen Zhengwei and his men were best at.

Just beyond the main road was the Infantry Regiment, which had a large number of soldiers and three-pound guns stationed in a small building on the corner.

……

"Boss!" Seeing Chen Zhengwei coming, Wen Bingzhong and others stood up.

The attack was about to take place, and everyone felt more at ease knowing that Chen Zhengwei was commanding from the front line.

The last battle at the train station and the battles in Chicago over the past two days all demonstrated how excellent Chen Zhengwei's strategic and tactical qualities are.

Before the battle started, he had already guessed all the moves his opponent would make.

It's like divine help.

Green felt that God must have whispered in Chen Zhengwei's ear, while Wen Bingzhong and others felt that the being should be Mazu.

"Are you all ready?" Chen Zhengwei walked in front of the crowd with a relaxed smile on his face.

"Just speak softly. Are you afraid they won't know I'm here?"

"Boss, we're ready!" Everyone nodded.

Chen Zhengwei nodded with satisfaction, not because they were ready, but because after these two fights, these people seemed much more relaxed and had less murderous aura.

"Take a break when you're ready!"

Then, Chen Zhengwei, led by others, entered the front building and looked across.

In addition to the faint lights in some buildings, there were also some buildings where there was no light, but there were people inside leaning against the windows and looking over here.

Chen Zhengwei walked through one building after another. In his eyes, the opponent's defense line looked like a sieve with gaps everywhere.

With his intuition, he can tell where the defense has loopholes and where the resistance is stronger.

He was confident that he could lead his men to get behind the other party without anyone noticing.

"After the explosion, have a team of people move in from this position and then charge toward the east side of Madison Street!"

"This position... can also be passed through and go around..."

Chen Zhengwei said as he walked, pointing at the silhouette in the darkness.

Soon, Chen Zhengwei raised his eyebrows. Although he could not see the exact number of the enemy in the building, he always felt that the enemy's defense line was too weak, there were too many loopholes, and a large number of soldiers gathered together.

"Their defense line is not right..." Chen Zhengwei said suddenly.

"Brother Wei, what's wrong?" A'long and Wen Bingzhong followed Chen Zhengwei and looked at the opposite side in surprise. They could not see anything except heavy rain and the outlines of buildings in the dark.

"Some of them are not here, go around!" Chen Zhengwei raised his eyebrows, and he realized what the other party wanted to do in a flash.

Stealing a home!

After all, he only has a limited number of people under his command, and most of them are needed to defend this large community.

There are not many people in the rear.

The opponent's plan should be... to take advantage of the heavy rain to attack the rear, and if the defense in the rear is empty, they will directly take over the hotel.

Even if we fail to take the hotel and the rear is attacked, a group of people defending here will be transferred back, so that a loophole will appear here!

Then they pushed forward on the entire front line, found the loopholes in the defense line, divided and swallowed up the remaining troops here, and then pushed forward to the blocks near the hotel.

Even though the tactical level of this era is still relatively backward, the enemy is a brigadier general who was promoted based on real combat achievements, so he still has some tactical level.

The heavy rain that lasted for two consecutive days was not only beneficial to their attack, but also made the opponent realize the opportunity.

There was a sarcastic smile on Chen Zhengwei's lips.

However, the other party got one thing wrong. If he was really in the hotel, the people here would not retreat to support him after being attacked.

Give myself more than 20 people, and I can keep half of the regiment there. They won’t have any chance at all!
After hearing Chen Zhengwei's words, everyone looked towards the opposite side, but they could not see anything.

I have no idea how Chen Zhengwei made his judgment.

Maybe Mazu told him?
Chen Zhengwei closed his eyes and went over the map of Chicago in his mind. Then he opened his eyes and said:
"Aaron, you don't have to go into the sewer. Go back and take a hundred people to ambush in the shops on both Brad Street and Wright Street!"

"They should have about 300 men, half a regiment's strength!"

"Brother Wei, what should we do here?" Aaron asked a little worriedly.

"We don't need you here, one more person won't make a difference! Hurry up!" Chen Zhengwei kicked him! Because it rained for two days, the water level of Lake Michigan would also rise. The water level in the drainage pipe would be relatively high, and it would be risky to pass through there.

In addition, the opponent was also preparing to attack, so Chen Zhengwei prepared to modify his tactics.

After sending Aaron away, Chen Zhengwei walked along the defense line again and found several larger loopholes.

I took out my pocket watch and looked at it. It was 8:30 in the evening.

Although the enemy now has a large number of soldiers gathered together, they have not yet gathered together. Therefore, it can be estimated that the time when the enemy will launch an attack should be after ten o'clock.

"Let's go back and adjust the plan! Re-arrange the manpower!"

……

At this time, teams of soldiers were marching in the rain. A shop owner walked to the door and was about to take a breath when he saw several people in army uniforms walking past the door.

Several soldiers subconsciously pointed their guns at him.

The boss quickly raised his hands and stepped back.

At the same time he noticed more soldiers passing through in the rain.

"Don't pay attention to it. People in Chicago don't like that Chinese man!" A man in the front of the team, who was wearing a gentleman's suit but his clothes were soaked by the rain, said after wiping the water off his face.

These are the only remaining elite agents sent by the Ministry of Justice. Without them, the army's raid would have been difficult to carry out.

"How far is it?"

"Four streets, we will reach the desired location in an hour at most!" The person from the Ministry of Justice looked into the darkness, with deep hatred in his eyes.

There were fifty agents, but now there were less than ten left. That night he heard the gunshots, but he resisted the urge to rush out and fight, and left through the back door with the help of his companions.

Tonight, that Chinese man will be made to pay with blood!
……

Chicago train station.

The gentle glow of an oil lamp illuminated the room.

The combat staff officer next to him was still studying the map, while Nelson was sitting next to him with a glass of red wine in his hand, but he didn't take a sip.

He liked the aroma of red wine, but now was not the time to drink.

This glass of red wine is saved for the celebration later.

Although the heavy rain affected the Corps' attack, he soon realized the opportunity, and there happened to be some agents from the Ministry of Justice who could lead the way.

Tonight, if we cannot directly raid and capture the hotel, we must at least compress the enemy's defense line around the hotel.

Then keep putting pressure on the other side, and as long as the casualties are too heavy, the other side will not be able to bear it.

Although this Chinese man had caused him a little trouble, he had recently caused quite a stir, and hanging him would bring him more prestige than commanding his army to flatten several Indian tribes.

There was a pocket watch on the table in front of Nelson, and the time was already 10 o'clock.

The estimated time of attack was half past ten.

At this time, the infantry regiments on the front line should have begun to assemble.

……

"That's it, the enemy has begun to gather and will start attacking soon!"

"Remember, your mission is to go straight through the enemy's defense line and head straight to the train station! I hope to see the enemy's commander in two hours." Chen Zhengwei said while sitting in a chair.

"Yes, boss!"

"Action!" After Chen Zhengwei said this, everyone left.

Originally they were planning to launch a counterattack tonight, but due to the heavy rain, the other side changed their plan, and Chen Zhengwei also changed his plan accordingly.

Chen Zhengwei sat on the chair with his legs crossed, thinking it would be better if there was some music.

He suddenly wanted to listen to fate.

To die here is the fate of those army soldiers!
It’s a pity that there’s not even a piano here, otherwise he really wants someone to bring Anna over.

"Let the hotel band get ready. I want to listen to it when I go back!" Chen Zhengwei tilted his head and said to his henchman.

Maybe I can even have a midnight snack with the opponent's commander later.

Mr. Brigadier General, you have to give him some face!

A moment later, teams of Chinese men in hunting suits and holding guns arrived at the expected location.

Looking across from here, all you can see is the pouring rain and buildings with monster-like silhouettes and dark windows.

Although the boss told them to go through here, they always felt like there were guns pointing at them from behind those windows.

"Xiao Liu, Lao San, you two go over and take a look first!"

"Okay!" The other two climbed out the window without saying a word, bent over and ran quickly across the street in the heavy rain, and then stuck close to the wall.

After listening for a while, the two looked through the window whose glass had long been shattered, but there was no one there.

The two men looked at each other, one of them continued to guard, while the other climbed in through the window. As soon as he landed, he stepped on broken glass on the ground, which made his heart beat wildly.

After waiting for a minute, there was still no sound. Obviously, there was no one in the house.

He then wiped the rain and sweat from his head and waved toward the outside of the window.

A moment later, several teams passed through here, crossed a street, and tiptoed to one side.

"It's amazing! How did the boss know that there was no one here?" A man muttered as he walked.

"So he is the boss!" A team leader whispered without turning his head, and then signaled everyone else to be quiet.

At this time, several small buildings on the street were already packed with Corps soldiers, ready to attack at any time.

……

On Brad Street, a team of soldiers walked cautiously, and the hotel was just over a hundred meters ahead.

Everything has been going smoothly until now.

The other party didn't notice them.

Some soldiers have already begun preparing for battle: holding the cross on their chests and praying.

"They actually came! Brother Wei is really amazing!" Aaron looked at the soldiers diagonally below through the window across the street, a grim smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he raised the submachine gun in his hand.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The window shattered instantly, and bullets flew across the street and hit the soldiers on the opposite side.

"Enemy attack! Get away!" The commander of a company that was advancing watched the soldiers in front of him fall down, his eyes widened and he glanced across the street, only to see human figures behind the windows that were originally empty, and the guns in those people's hands were spewing flames.

Just as he was about to get behind a pillar, a bullet hit him in the knee.

Then more bullets caught up with him.

Under the eaves of the house across the street, the advancing soldiers were also hit by a hail of bullets.

Aaron deployed fifty people on this street, distributed in the shops on both sides. No matter which side the enemy walked on, they would be able to attack.

It just so happened that the other party was walking on both sides.

At the same time, heavy gunfire broke out on another street leading to the hotel.

　Brothers, it’s not that I don’t want to write more, it’s just that I type slowly and my brain works slowly. I used to write 4,000 words a day.

　　Now I write 7,000 to 8,000 words a day, and my mind is empty after I finish writing.
