As Xiao Wang was packing his equipment, Zhuge Hong walked over and said, "Youngest brother, this is a great opportunity. You have to seize it. Congratulations."

"Deputy team leader, what good opportunity?" Xiao Wang asked in confusion.

"Capture Liu Hong! What a great opportunity to make a name for yourself! If you catch Liu Hong this time, you'll definitely be promoted to a permanent position. Even if you don't pass the Yuanwu exam, I reckon I can make an exception and promote you to a permanent position."

"This is still far from certain; let's focus on capturing Liu Hong first."

"I believe in you. With your abilities, there's definitely no problem. Plus, with the captain personally leading the charge, we'll definitely take it down. But you should also be careful. There might be a lot of heavy weapon firefights this time. It's no joke."

"Okay, thank you for the reminder, deputy team leader."

"What are you thanking me for? Taking care of the youngest is only right. I see you're carrying a gun; the captain must have given you special permission, right?"

"Mm." Xiao Wang nodded.

"Do you have enough bullets? Should we get some more?"

"That should be enough. I was issued 200 rounds. I'm not a good shot, so I probably won't use them much."

"That's right. You're used to cutting melons and vegetables with a frame, so you probably don't use a gun much. Let's go, let's assemble."

Xiao Wang packed his gear and went downstairs with Zhuge Hong to the courtyard in front of the building.

Wen Lujia and Guan Zhongnan stood on the steps, with four teams and one team standing below them. Xiao Wang looked around and estimated there were about seventy or eighty people. Including those who were still monitoring the scene, the total number of people mobilized exceeded one hundred.

Xiao Wang followed behind Zhuge Hong and stood in the lower ranks, facing Wen Lujia and Guan Zhongnan.

Wen Lujia stepped forward, looked at the people below, and said:

"Enough with the small talk. This isn't our first mission. I'll just emphasize two points: first, prioritize your own safety; second, don't harm ordinary civilians. Understand?"

"clear!"

The people below answered in unison, with great momentum.

"Captain Guan, do you have anything to add?" Wen Lujia asked Guan Zhongnan beside her.

Guan Zhongnan, with a limp, stepped forward and said, "The Red Dragon Gang isn't a small gang. They'll probably have a lot of heavy weapons for this operation. Be careful with suppressive fire and minimize casualties. Understand?"

"clear."

As Xiao Wang answered, he turned to observe the group of seventy or eighty people. He estimated that there were about ten rifles and about a dozen or twenty submachine guns among them.

"Deputy team leader, is our team equipped with heavy weapons?" Xiao Wang asked Zhuge Hong in a low voice.

"No, and it's not necessary. Heavy weapons for these operations are handled by specialized personnel from other groups. Besides, pistols are more effective in urban warfare."

"Understood."

Just then, Wen Lujia looked over and said, "Xiao Wang, come up here for a moment."

Xiao Wang took two steps forward and walked to Wen Lujia's side.

Wen Lujia pointed at Xiao Wang and said to the people below, "This is Xiao Wang. Everyone, get to know him. When we arrest Liu Hong later, the three of us will be the main attackers. Don't get hurt by mistake. Do you see clearly?"

"Understood."

"Okay, let's go."

At Wen Lujia's command, dozens of people boarded their vehicles and headed to their assigned locations.

"Xiao Wang, you can ride in my car," Wen Lujia said to Xiao Wang.

"it is good."

Xiao Wang followed Wen Lujia into the car, and after getting in, he noticed the Tang sword he had seen several times was in the passenger seat.

Once seated, the vehicle was started, and the engine roared to life.

One vehicle after another drove out of the police station gates, dispersing towards their respective destinations.

Xiao Wang and Wen Lujia drove a Jeep, following behind Zhuge Hong and the others' vehicles, towards Liu Hong's location.

It was now completely dark, and there were hardly any pedestrians on the street. The searchlights on the top of the inner city wall continued to patrol and wave, their pale light occasionally flashing across the roof of the jeep, creating a dazzling effect.

"Are you nervous?" Wen Lujia asked while driving.

"It's alright," Xiao Wang replied truthfully.

Although it was the first time participating in such a large-scale operation, the police force was still superior in terms of overall strength, so there was nothing to be nervous about.

Compared to this, the life-or-death situations in underground boxing rings are far more intense.

This at least tells you who your opponent is and their approximate strength.

In the arena of life and death, these are all unknowns.

"Captain, is Captain Guan's martial arts skill very high?"

"You'll see in a bit. Oh, and I forgot to remind you, stay away from him during the fight."

Why?

"He's too brutal when he fights, he's easy to accidentally injure someone. Did you see his leg?"

"Hmm, he seems to be a little lame."

"His injury could have been avoided. He charged straight in, braving the bullets, but the other guy died while he was wounded in the leg."

"Judging from what you're saying, he's a ruthless person," Xiao Wang remarked.

"Anyone who can rise to the position of captain in the police station is a ruthless person. Of course, except for me, I am still very gentle."

Xiao Wang: ...

He glanced at the Tang sword beside him, and at the same time recalled the scene when he saved his second senior brother Linghu Ke, when he drew his sword and rushed into the middle of dozens of people to cut them down, as well as the respectful way his subordinates usually treated him.

No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with gentleness.

"Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you agree?"

"No, the captain is the gentlest."

The vehicle bumped along, the roar of the engine echoing throughout the street. Xiao Wang looked out the window and saw that when thugs passed by, they quickly disappeared into the shadows on the side of the street when they saw the police vehicle.

After a bumpy half-hour ride, the convoy finally arrived at its destination.

To avoid alerting the enemy, I parked the car a little further away.

After parking the car, Wen Lujia and Xiao Wang got out.

At this moment, Wen Lujia had already slung the Tang sword behind her back.

The two followed Zhuge Hong for a distance.

"Captain, this is it. The team leader and the others are up ahead," Zhuge Hong said, pointing to a building.

Xiao Wang looked at the building in front of him. It was three stories high and occupied a considerable area.

This place is different from the two places he had previously tracked.

"He really does have multiple hideouts," Xiao Wang sneered. "This is his third base, isn't it?"

"Three caves? Maybe more than that," Zhuge Hong added from the side.

"Let's go up and take a look," Wen Lujia said, leading the group toward the location that Xu Liyan and the others were monitoring.

After they met up.

"Captain," Xu Liyan and the others greeted him.

"Is there any movement?" Wen Lujia asked.

"No," Xu Liyan replied, "but I feel something's strange."

"What's strange about it?" Wen Lujia asked.

"I can't quite put my finger on it, but it just feels really strange that there's no movement at all. The previous two times, there were always people coming and going, but this time I didn't see a single person coming or going."

"Could they have spotted us beforehand?" Wen Lujia guessed. "Never mind, the arrow is on the bowstring, we have no choice but to release it. Contact the command post on the walkie-talkie and ask if they are ready. If they are, then we'll attack directly."

According to the basic intelligence, the building has two entrances, front and back. Their side is the front entrance, while Guan Zhongnan's team is responsible for the back entrance.

Zhuge Hong stepped forward. "Captain, the commander says we are ready and can move out at any time."

Wen Lujia turned to look at everyone, "Advance in battle formation, move out!"
