The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 500 A bloody banquet
"His men are not easy to deal with!" someone reminded.

"Yes, his men are difficult to deal with."

"He fought a war with the U.S. government, and won!"

"But we have no choice. The reward has been issued. Now we are like walking dollars! Just last night, some compatriots who had just arrived were reported, hunted down, and killed..."

Wilkes's eyes swept over the other faces.

As one of the founders of the Ku Klux Klan, Wilkes is old but still dignified.

Although the leaders of the KKK in various cities would not usually obey Wilkes, they still had to show respect at this time.

"Maybe tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, we will also be reported just to get a little bonus."

"If we don't do something soon, we're going to end up like those Indians, with our scalps made into boots."

"You understand this truth, so you are here."

Everyone nodded, and that was indeed the case.

Chen Zhengwei used the method of offering a bounty to force them into an extremely dangerous situation.

"Besides, now is the best opportunity. Most of his men have been sent out, and they can find our traces in the suburbs and countryside."

Wilkes went on to say that he had his own sources of information.

“There’s only a small portion left in Houston, and it’s scattered all over the place.”

"He will arrange some security for the banquet tonight, but not too much."

"Many wealthy people will show up at the banquet. We will launch an attack at that time to let them see our strength!"

After Wilkes finished speaking, a bald and rude man immediately slammed his fist on the table and shouted: "He has a gun, and we have guns! He has people, and we have people! What is there to be afraid of? Can we go back now?"

"We have made preparations in advance this time, and we will definitely give that yellow monkey a hard time!"

"I'm going to skin him myself!"

Wilkes took over the conversation:

"My people have already infiltrated the hotel. Not only do we know their manpower, but we can also cooperate with them from the inside and outside when the time comes."

After hearing this, the others looked a little more relaxed.

"This is our place after all!" laughed another "giant".

"What's the plan? I mean, what are we going to do then?" another person asked.

After all, these people come from all over, belong to different organizations, and no one is submissive to anyone else.

Let someone take the lead, and who should follow behind?

If the arrangements are not made well, they will start quarreling among themselves.

Wilkes had thought about the problem a long time ago. These KKK members were a group of scattered individuals. In addition to some of them being retired veterans, many of them were simply workers and farmers.

Moreover, when he retired, the army had just shifted from a linear battle line with queuing and shooting to a skirmish line, and began to use bunkers and trenches.

It would be better to let them play freely than to let them arrange any tactics.

So directly:
"We have a lot of people and we have help from the inside, so there's nothing to worry about. When we hear the signal, we'll rush over together."

"There are a total of sixteen windows on the first floor of the hotel, and two back doors. When the time comes, we will split up and have some people rush in from the main door while others rush in from other windows. Our target is the banquet hall."

After hearing this, the others looked at each other and had no objection.

In addition to asking everyone to rush in together, Wilkes also arranged several gunmen with good marksmanship on the upper floor not far from the hotel.

Then he had several boxes brought out, which were filled with bundles of ore and explosives for clearing roads.

Distribute these explosives as well, so they can be used in case of enemy obstruction.

Everyone was overjoyed when they saw the explosives.

With these explosives, we will have a much better chance of success this time.

……

In the evening, Houston's wealthy people began to arrive at the Hutchins House in horse-drawn carriages.

Mayor Joseph Morris returned home, changed into a formal suit, and then left the manor in a carriage. However, not long after he left the gate, a carriage came towards him.

When they were about to pass each other, Morris suddenly saw two men in white robes sitting in the carriage through the window.

The other party was pointing a gun at him.

Morris' pupils suddenly shrank and he suddenly fell down next to the seat.

Boom!

Accompanied by two gunshots, the coachman was shot in the chest and fell off his seat.

At the same time, a carriage approached quickly from behind and then stopped. Four men in white robes jumped out of the carriage, raised their revolvers and fired into the carriage.

Bang bang bang!

Accompanied by a chaotic burst of gunfire, the carriage was riddled with holes.

The carriage was surrounded by smoke.

At this time, several people opened the carriage door, dragged out Morris who was shot inside, and stuffed him into another carriage.

Then he walked away.

Morris covered his wound and gasped for breath. He now only hoped that he could convince the leader of the KKK in a while.

However, he never had the chance to meet the leader of the KKK.

Several men in white robes on the carriage pulled out two hammers from under the seats.

Seeing the hammer in the opponent's hand, Morris panicked: "No...don't...I know your leader! I know the giant!"

The other party smashed down with the hammer in his hand.

In just a few hits, Joseph Morris was dead.

Several men in white robes on the carriage took off their hoods, revealing their Germanic faces.

"This thing is really hot!" a young man muttered.

"Smash his hands and make him look like he's being tortured!" Another man handed over the hammer.

……

At this time, Chen Zhengwei was smilingly receiving guests in the hotel's banquet hall.

Even after everyone arrived, Joseph Morris still hadn't shown up.

Chen Zhengwei stood there for a few minutes with a stern look on his face.

The other guests looked around to see who was missing and soon discovered that it was Mayor Joseph Morris.

This surprised many people. You know, Joseph Morris has recently supported Chen Zhengwei's actions to crack down on the KKK. How could he be late for the banquet?
Chen Zhengwei finished smoking a cigarette and threw it on the ground. Then he walked to the front and said with a fake smile, "I don't know what car our mayor is in. Everyone is here, but he is not."

Seeing Chen Zhengwei's expression, many people were worried about Joseph Morris.

A man with the latest plaster (not yet popular) and bandage on his right hand hesitated and said, "Mr. Chen, I met the mayor before, and he said he would come back after changing his clothes... maybe he was delayed by something!"

Everyone looked at the man with appreciation and admiration in their eyes.

This man was Charles H. Milam, a true gentleman and a warrior.

His hand was broken by Chen Zhengwei because he went to inform Rice. Unexpectedly, he dared to stand up and speak for Mayor Joseph Morris at this time.

"Oh? You know a lot?" Chen Zhengwei glanced at Charles H. Milam, then changed the subject: "In that case, we don't have to wait. Maybe our mayor is riding in a bullock cart...so he is slower than others!"

Chen Zhengwei got straight to the point: "As everyone knows, I have been working hard to combat the KKK recently!"

"This is a just cause, but Houston's policing is not just my business."

"So I hope you will join this just cause."

"Of course, I will definitely not let you go hunting the KKK with guns... It is difficult to hide the bellies of these gentlemen from the KKK... The most important thing is that they will definitely not run as fast as the KKK!" Chen Zhengwei glanced at a few wealthy people with big bellies, and everyone smiled.

Obviously, this is not an offense.

surely not.

It's a sense of humor.

"You don't need to go hunting down the KKK with guns. We have a saying that those with money contribute money, and those with strength contribute strength."

"The people outside have no money, because you have made all the money, so they can only contribute their efforts! And you are all rich people, so I hope you can donate a small sum of money as a bonus, as a bonus, to encourage the power of the rule of law and justice, and to commend those individuals who have made contributions to the just cause of fighting the KKK!"

As soon as Chen Zhengwei finished speaking, everyone applauded with smiles on their faces.

At the same time, on the streets surrounding the hotel, some people took out white robes and put them on, standing in dark corners looking at the brightly lit hotel.

When the pedestrians around saw this scene, they ran away in horror.

KKK!
Although these people are walking dollars, the sudden appearance of so many KKK members has made many people feel the terror of the KKK.

The KKK has been active in the Southern states for more than a decade, and their terrorist acts have taken root in people's hearts.

Even the white people didn't dare to approach them.

In just three minutes, hundreds of KKK members wearing white robes and hoods appeared on the streets around the hotel.

Seeing this scene, the nearby agents either left quickly or hid back in the hotel.

Wilkes watched the scene quietly, his heart filled with pride.

This is their career!
Then Wilkes raised his pistol: "Catch that yellow monkey!"

boom!
Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, the KKK members around the hotel rushed towards the brightly lit hotel.

At the same time, the agent who returned to the hotel reminded Chen Zhengwei's men in the hotel: "The KKK is calling! I'll go notify Mr. Chen!"

While running towards the banquet hall, he slammed the door open.

Chen Zhengwei was speaking when the door was pushed open. He immediately looked over with an unfriendly expression.

Other wealthy people also turned their heads.

An agent rushed in with a panicked look on his face. "Mr. Chen, the KKK is calling!"

boom!
There was a gunshot outside.

Then, shouts of "Catch that yellow monkey" were heard outside the hotel.

Hundreds of people rushed here while shouting, the momentum was quite shocking, even the rich people in the banquet hall changed their faces and looked out the window.

Boom!

Following two gunshots, the windows of the banquet hall were shattered, and all the wealthy people subconsciously sought places to hide.

Only Chen Zhengwei was still standing there, watching everything with an expressionless face.

A waiter who was hiding under the table not far away took out a revolver from under the table. Just as he was about to aim at Chen Zhengwei, Chen Zhengwei already had a gun in his hand.

boom!
There was a bloody hole on the waiter's head.

The agent who had just rushed in to report the news suddenly pointed his gun at Chen Zhengwei.

boom!
Everyone could hardly see the movements of Chen Zhengwei's hands. The gun in Chen Zhengwei's hand had already changed direction. The agent also had a bloody hole on his forehead and fell to the ground with a bang.

Few people know that Chen Zhengwei is such a good marksman.

Chen Zhengwei threw the gun aside and clapped his hands:

"Okay, the two little bugs have been dealt with. No need to worry!"

"Since you are here for the banquet, I will definitely protect your safety."

"Forget about the KKK, even if the US Army comes, they have to leave lying down!" Chen Zhengwei stood there with his arms open, a smile that ignored everything on his face.

He has captured several generals of the US Army alive.

As he spoke, the door on one side of the banquet hall suddenly opened, and dozens of Chinese youths in hunting suits rushed in, ran directly to the window and opened fire outside.

The windows of the guest rooms on the second floor of the hotel were also opened, and there were people standing inside, each holding a gun in his hand.

In addition to them, there were also figures appearing in front of the second-floor windows of the surrounding shops.

After Wilkes gave the signal, the KKK members rushed to the front of the hotel with guns in their hands, looking fanatical, and saw figures appearing behind the hotel windows.

Da da da!
Countless fire snakes spewed out.

Along with the sound of glass breaking, blood splattered all over the bodies of the KKK members, and they fell to the ground trembling.

As for those KKK members who were carrying explosives, they were fired upon by more than one gun and shot to pieces on the spot.

"Why are there so many people?" When Wilkes saw this scene, veins on his forehead jumped. This was different from the information he had received.

In particular, the windows on the second floor of the surrounding shops were open, and the gunmen inside were still arranged by Chen Zhengwei.

The crossfire from several directions turned the area in front of the hotel into a river of blood in just one minute, with corpses in white robes scattered all over the ground.

All that filled my ears were the sounds of gunfire, screams, and groans of death.

"It's an ambush!"

"It's an ambush!"

“We were deceived!”

The screams and curses before death made Wilkes' eyes red. He took a look at the bodies falling in front of the hotel and immediately retreated to the alley behind.

However, before he had gone far, several Chinese men in hunting suits and holding submachine guns blocked his way.

Da da da!
After beating Wilkes and several people around him into pieces, these people stepped on his bodies and walked forward.

They didn't care who was killed.

Anyway, none of these KKK members can be left alive.

In just three minutes, hundreds of KKK members who wanted to attack the hotel were killed, leaving only corpses and blood everywhere in front of and outside the back door of the hotel, like a river of blood.

The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood and gunpowder.

In the hotel, Chen Zhengwei just stood there except for shooting and killing two people.

At this time, he clapped his hands again and smiled at everyone:
"Well, gentlemen, it's time for the party to begin!"

"You should get up from the ground!"

　I took a 10-hour drive home today and barely managed to write this chapter.

　　We were supposed to stay in the hotel for two more days, but because of the heavy rains in the north caused by the typhoon, we packed up and ran back home early in the morning to avoid being trapped there.

　　This is the only chapter for today. I’m so tired.
