Before long, the number of people opposite Jiang Lai and his group surpassed theirs, and it continued to increase. At this moment, one of the underlings suddenly shouted, "Oh no, there are people behind us too!"

A group of people suddenly appeared and surrounded Jiang Lai and his group from another direction.

Upon hearing this and seeing the people approaching from the other side, Jiang Lai's many underlings were also somewhat panicked.

Jiang Lai narrowed his eyes, his expression turning grim. Clearly, they had been ambushed and surrounded.

"Fei Hui, when the fight breaks out, you take most of the men and hold off the people behind you. Leave the front to me!" Jiang Lai said calmly to Fei Hui without panicking.

"Okay, Brother Lai!" Fei Hui now admires Jiang Lai a lot. Although he is older than Jiang Lai, he always calls him Brother Lai when he sees him.

Jiang Lai gave Fei Hui a look and nodded, indicating that he shouldn't worry.

Jiang Lai then walked towards the nightclub empty-handed without any weapons. With each step he took, his henchmen followed him, as if they only felt safe with him.

"Where's Hua Fo?" Jiang Lai shouted as he approached the nightclub's entrance.

At this moment, Hua Fo slowly walked out from the Allied camp, accompanied by several men who were noticeably more muscular than his other underlings. Each of them carried a machete and protected him closely.

"Kid, I know you're good at fighting, but what's the use?" Hua Fo also saw Jiang Lai, pointed at him, and said.

Then he added, "With so many of me here, how many can you possibly fight? Huh? You dare threaten me, Flower Buddha? You'll die right here today, hahaha!"

Relying on his superior numbers, Hua Fo disregarded Jiang Lai and shouted loudly.

Looking at Hua Fo's somewhat sickly expression, it was clear that Jiang's actions against him last time had left some lingering trauma.

Last time, when Jiang Lai dealt with him, although Jiang Lai knocked down all twenty or thirty of his henchmen, none of his henchmen were carrying weapons at that time.

The fact that Hua Fo had two or three hundred people on his side, and that everyone was armed, gave him the confidence to be arrogant.

"Go get him! Kill him!" Hua Fo pointed at Jiang Lai and then shouted at his henchmen.

However, although Hua Fo shouted loudly, he also knew how powerful Jiang Lai was, so he did not take the lead in charging forward. Instead, he retreated and let his henchmen deal with Jiang Lai.

At Hua Fo's command, many of Lianhe's henchmen, armed with machetes, charged towards Jiang Lai and his group.

When the Lianhe people attacked, Jiang Lai's men became nervous. He even heard one of his underlings swallow hard.

"Block the people behind you!" Jiang Lai said to Fei Hui in a calm tone.

Before Fei Hui could react, Jiang Lai charged at the Allied forces with his bare hands.

On the United side, the henchmen at the front, seeing Jiang Lai charging towards them unarmed, couldn't help but scoff. "Is that all?"

He looked down on Jiang Lai, but his hands didn't stop moving. He swung the machete down at Jiang Lai.

Jiang Lai swayed, dodging the incoming blade, and punched the man squarely in the chest, instantly rendering him incapacitated. Jiang Lai then lifted the man up and used him as a weapon, smashing him towards the other side. The poor underling didn't even have time to react before he became a flying man in mid-air.

The underlings that Jiang Lai threw out immediately hit several of the people rushing up, and for a moment, the opposite side was in chaos. Jiang Lai ignored them and just kept charging forward.

With a punch, a palm strike, a lean, and a kick, any of Jiang Lai's underlings who got close to him were either knocked to the ground by his fists or leaned down in groups. Instantly, the entire group of men who had charged at the front were all thrown to the ground.

The Hung Hing underlings following Jiang Lai were greatly encouraged by this sight. Their momentum surged, and they followed closely behind Jiang Lai, quickly rushing into the crowd, where a fierce melee ensued.

Swords flashed and the fighting was fierce. Although Hung Hing had far fewer men, thanks to Jiang Lai, they were able to put up a fight against the United Wo Hing.

Jiang Lai, with unstoppable momentum, took the lead and charged straight at Hua Fo, ahead of everyone else.

Seeing Jiang Lai's bravery, Hua Fo was reminded of the fear of being dominated by Jiang Lai. He kept moving closer to the nightclub, not daring to face Jiang Lai. He only hoped that Jiang Lai would run out of energy and be killed by the crowd.

Jiang Lai originally wanted to grab Hua Fo directly, but there were too many people in front of him, and many of them used underhanded methods against him. Some wanted to cut him, some wanted to kick his genitals, and some even spat at him. Feeling annoyed, he couldn't help but use more force in his hands.

The underlings he had beaten were just lying on the ground groaning, but now, Jiang Lai punched the one who had spat at him, knocking out his jaw. Teeth flew everywhere, and blood streamed from his mouth.

Jiang Lai fought with increasing ferocity, and he lost count of how many people he had killed. Wherever he went, a large number of Lianhe's underlings lay on the ground, some groaning in pain, others unconscious, and still others with severed limbs.

In an instant, Jiang Lai's figure was like a god or demon in the hearts of Lianhe's many underlings. They stopped charging at some point and immediately began to flee, ignoring Hua Fo's orders.

Seeing that the Lianhe forces had been scattered, Jiang Lai quickly caught up with Hua Fo, who was trying to escape. Hua Fo wanted to say something, but Jiang Lai didn't bother with him. He just slapped him unconscious.

They ignored the disbanded group at the nightclub.

Jiang Lai carried the Flower Buddha and walked away. Outside, many Hung Hing underlings were still struggling against another group of people. Jiang Lai came out carrying the Flower Buddha and threw it on the ground.

They joined forces with another group of people, saw the Flower Buddha lying on the ground, and stopped their attack.

Hua Fo was captured by Jiang Lai, which means that all of the more than one hundred people inside were beaten down by Hung Hing. With their leader captured, and many of the hundred or so people outside also injured, the United Army's forces immediately lost their fighting spirit.

Looking at Hung Hing's side, although many people were also injured by them, their basic fighting strength was intact. Moreover, there was a monster standing in front of them who could take on a hundred people by himself. Their side was clearly no match for them, so they joined forces with many gangsters and began to turn around and run away.

The people outside ran away, but there were still some people inside. Some were genuinely unable to move, while others, seeing that they couldn't escape, lay on the ground pretending to be dead.

Jiang Lai had also worked as a blue lantern vendor. Most of them were just trying to make a living, so he didn't make things difficult for them. He told them to take the Lianhe people with them and get out of there. He helped the lightly injured and carried away the seriously injured.

In just over half an hour, the ambush against Jiang Lai and his group ended with Hua Fo being captured and the combined forces being scattered.

"Tie him up and take him back to Sister Mei," Jiang Lai said, pointing at Hua Fo and addressing one of his underlings.

After hearing Jiang's words, the younger brother found a rope and tied Hua Fo up tightly.

After scattering the Lianhe men, Jiang Lai instructed Fei Hui to take the injured brothers to the clinic for treatment. He then ordered some other underlings to follow him and sweep up all of Lianhe's other establishments in Mong Kok.

"Brother Lai, you're covered in blood. Why don't you go to the clinic first?" Fei Hui said with concern, looking at Jiang Lai, who also had a lot of bloodstains on his body.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. This is all someone else's blood," Jiang Lai said to Fei Hui.

Jiang looked at his clothes and saw that there were indeed many bloodstains on them, and many places were even soaked in blood.

But Jiang Lai knew that this was not his blood. Although he had been cut a few times, none of the cuts had broken his skin, so it was someone else's blood.

Chapter 14 Stalemate

In the battle against the United Front, Hung Hing also suffered many casualties. In addition, Jiang Lai arranged for some people to take care of them, leaving Jiang Lai with only about fifty men.

Jiang Lai left about ten people at the nightclub. Although the alliance had been broken up, it was still necessary to leave some people to keep an eye on the places where they had set up their flags.

Besides this nightclub, the area also includes foot massage parlors, KTVs, and bars.

After arranging things here, Jiang Lai immediately led the remaining men to raid these venues.

Perhaps because Hua Fo had already transferred all his manpower there, Jiang Lai and the rest of his men encountered no significant resistance at any of the venues they visited and easily took them over.

He visited more than a dozen places in a row, basically sweeping up all of Hua Fo's territories. He also arranged for Jiang Lai's underlings. For smaller territories, he left one or two people to relay messages, while for larger territories, he left several more people.

In the end, Jiang Lai had no one left by his side, not even Fei Hui, who had been dealt with by him.

However, after the battle, Jiang Lai reaped quite a harvest. In some of the venues, there were a lot of cash, gold and silver jewelry, and expensive ornaments. Jiang Lai kept some of them, and stored the rest in his spatial ring.

Jiang Lai roughly estimated that he had more than three million in cash, and with jewelry and other valuables, he estimated his income to be more than five million.

Jiang Lai didn't touch the rest of the goods, because after cleaning the site, the items and property needed to be handed over, and the branch would reward each person according to their contributions. In addition, the branch also needed to pay for the medicine for some of the brothers.

However, most people couldn't take much even if they wanted to, since everyone could see it. But if Jiang took some into his spatial ring, no one would notice. However, it wouldn't be appropriate to take it all.

After Jiang Lai finished making the arrangements, he was about to take out his phone to call Thirteen Sister, but after thinking for a moment, he put the phone back.

Thirteen Sister is probably busy right now, and Jiang Lai doesn't know the situation, so calling her might be inappropriate.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lai decided to go directly to Thirteen Sister to see if she could help in any way.

And the other side.

Thirteen Sister, along with the remaining men and over a hundred men that Han Bin had transferred from Kwai Tsing, totaling more than three hundred men, launched a fierce attack on Tung Sing's territory in the Mong Kok area.

At first, everything went smoothly. Thirteen Sister and her men swept up arcades, foot massage parlors, and bars. However, when Thirteen Sister and her men arrived at Nathan Road, they encountered Crow and his men coming to their aid.

The status of Tung Sing among Hong Kong triads is far superior to that of the United Front. Although Tung Sing's influence in the Mong Kok area is not as great as that of Hung Hing, it is not a problem to transfer a few hundred people from other places to guard the area.

Crow brought quite a few people this time, at least several hundred. In addition to Crow, Smiling Tiger Wu Zhiwei also came, which forced the unstoppable Hung Hing group to stop.

Tung Sing didn't have many venues in the Mong Kok area, but they made a lot of money, especially in bars and nightclubs, which were the main places where Tung Sing sold pills.

In those days, the Yau Tsim Mong district was basically full of scoundrels at night. There were pimps, gamblers, and prostitutes everywhere. These people mingled in nightclubs, gambling dens, flour mills, and horse stalls.

Although it's a mixed bag, the gathering of people has attracted many wealthy people to seek pleasure here, while those from the lower classes come here to make a living.

In addition to some large associations, there are also some small associations in Hong Kong, totaling at least several dozen.

In other regions, at most one or two or a few organizations might divide up the territory.

However, in places like Yau Tsim Mong, where there is a lot of money to be made, all the triads want a piece of the pie. Hung Hing may be stronger in this area, but not all of their territory is under their control.

Even in Portland Street, although Thirteen Sister firmly controls most of the business channels, there are still quite a few triads with their flags planted there.

Today, Sister Thirteen took action against United and East Star because there was a reason for it, and she was able to stand firm and keep her mouth shut.

In other gangs' territories, as long as their flags are planted, neither Thirteen Sister nor Tung Sing members will touch them, otherwise it could easily trigger a full-scale war between gangs.

However, since the fat corpse of Tung Sing dared to lead people to smash Thirteen Sister's place, no matter what the reason, as long as a fight broke out, it was reasonable for Thirteen Sister's side to retaliate.

Jiang Lai inquired about Thirteen Sister's situation and rushed to Nathan Road without stopping.

After Jiang arrived, he first assessed the situation and found that the two groups of people had not yet started fighting.

The underlings, armed with machetes, steel pipes, and other weapons, stood ready in a dense, imposing mass. On Hung Hing's side, Han Bin and Thirteen Sister were leading the way, while on the other side, Crow the Tiger and Wu Zhiwei the Smiling Tiger were leading the way.

This situation is actually quite common. There is often a situation between gangs called "showing off their strength," where both sides flex their muscles. If the difference in strength is not too great, the matter will usually be resolved through negotiation.

After all, even though Hong Kong is chaotic, it is still a society with a sound legal system. The police have a considerable deterrent effect on gangsters. They may turn a blind eye to ordinary fights, but they will still step in to stop large-scale armed conflicts.

Jiang Lai also saw the fat corpse brother, who had been beaten black and blue by Da Tian Er in the plot, now standing behind the crow with an arrogant expression.

Jiang Lai was more interested in Crow. To be honest, Jiang Lai admired Crow more than Chen Haonan. How so? Crow seemed arrogant and domineering, but in reality, he was meticulous, brave and resourceful, ruthless and decisive in his actions.

Jiang Lai felt that people like Crow were more suited to survive in the martial arts world and were more likely to rise to power; it was just a pity that he wasn't the protagonist.

"Thirteenth Sister, it was Flower Buddha who disturbed your place, but you're raiding our Dongxing's place. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

Ha ha

"Could it be that Hung Hing is preparing to go to war with Tung Sing?!" Smiling Tiger Wu Zhiwei lied with a straight face, completely absolving Tung Sing of any responsibility, and then slapped a huge accusation on Thirteen Sister's head.

"You bastard, it's that long-haired guy behind you, he brought his men to raid our place!" The henchman who used to guard the place roared angrily when he heard Wu Zhiwei say this.

"Kid, I have so many underlings behind me, how would I know who you're talking about?" Compared to the anger of Hung Hing's side, Smiling Tiger said calmly.

"Is that you?" Smiling Tiger turned around and casually asked one of his underlings.

“It wasn’t me, boss,” the underling replied.

"Is that you?" Smiling Tiger then asked one of his underlings.

“Me neither, boss,” another henchman said.

"See? I asked them, and they all said no!" Smiling Tiger said, spreading his hands with an innocent expression.
