Dragon Gate Swordsman

It took Lin Gerui half a minute to realize what had happened, but at this moment he could only smile bitterly, shake his head, and mutter to himself.

"Xia'er has really grown up."

Chapter 26: There is a saying that a storm is coming

Guard Bureau, conference room.

The lights were dim and the atmosphere was solemn. Most people focused their attention on the projection behind Xie Ming, but there were exceptions...

Texas sat upright but kept her head slightly lowered. Her unfocused eyes proved that she was immersed in her own thoughts, while Chongxiao crossed his arms and stared at the table in front of him with a calm expression.

Haoyun had noticed this situation a long time ago, so he had already stabbed him three times secretly; Xingxiong also noticed this situation, but did not say much; but Xie Ming was different...

"Chongxiao?"

no response.

"Chongxiao!? Did you hear that?"

Still no response.

"Inspector Starbear."

"Yes, sir, I understand."

Xingxiong calmly stood up, walked to Chongxiao, and punched him on the head.

"hiss……!"

Chongxiao gasped and was shocked. Just as he was about to stand up with his head covered, he suddenly noticed Xingxiong beside him.

That's right, he was just dozing off.

But this is not because Chongxiao did not know the importance of the matter and dared to ignore such a formal combat meeting, but because he had been highly concentrated in the past few days. He had to guard against the sudden appearance of the mysterious killer, and keep an eye on Texas to prevent her from slipping out and doing something stupid, which caused his spirit to be seriously exhausted.

"I'm sorry, sir!"

"Sorry, that's not necessary, but please remember, Officer Chongxiao...if something goes wrong during the operation because you didn't remember the key intelligence mentioned in this meeting, please think carefully about the possible consequences."

Xie Ming is a veteran who has served in the Imperial Guard Bureau since its establishment. Although he may seem indecisive to an impulsive person like Haoyun, there must be a reason why he was promoted to the second-in-command of the Imperial Guard Bureau.

Just like now, he did not criticize Chongxiao, the absolute main force of the special inspection team, but chose to "remind" Chongxiao in this way.

I have to say, the effect is outstanding!

"Okay, I've finished introducing the overall regional environment. Inspector Xingxiong, please explain the specific action plan."

"Yes, sir."

The information on the projection screen quickly switched to images taken by the reconnaissance drone.

Right in the center is a luxurious restaurant with about ten floors. The surrounding blocks and buildings are also partially captured, so that the traffic environment and facility distribution can be clearly seen.

"Yongle Food House is a restaurant run by Pei Yan's brother Pei Huan. Unfortunately, our informant was unable to obtain the detailed internal structure. You can first remember the street layout outside."

Xingxiong pressed the projector remote control and switched the screen to the target of this operation.

Ma Si, Pei Yan, and Jiang Fusheng, three people who were being closely watched by the special inspection team, all appeared on the screen.

After two months of proactive rectification, the underworld forces in the fringe areas have suffered a severe blow, and dozens of leaders, big and small, have been arrested by the special inspection team, which gradually led to the discovery of these three "big fish".

Next, as long as the three of them can be brought to justice, the arms, drug trafficking and trade monopoly system in the outer area of ​​Longmen will collapse on its own. Although it will certainly not disappear completely, if they want to "keep the Guard Bureau out" as before, then only the legendary underworld leader "Rat King" can come out.

However, based on data from previous years, the special inspection team inferred that the "Rat King" was just a name and he had actually not been involved in any underworld activities for a long time.

"According to the information from the informant, these three people will meet at Yongle Food Court tonight... We don't know what they want to discuss, but this is a rare opportunity."

Xingxiong glanced at his colleagues sitting in the conference room.

In addition to the special inspection team who will participate in the operation, there are also four team leaders who will also obey Xingxiong's orders and be responsible for the blockade and support tasks in this operation.

"The special inspection team will be divided into three teams to participate in this operation. Team one will be led by me and will be responsible for entering Yongle Food Court to control the three targets in the name of search. Team two will be led by Dong Fang and will be accompanied by a team to seal off the lobby on the first floor. The other three teams will set up defenses around the operation area and evacuate civilians in a timely manner."

"Team Three will be coordinated and assigned by Lan Yu, who will be responsible for communication and sniper cover for all personnel...If any unexpected situation occurs, be sure to report it in a timely manner."

"The goal of this operation is to capture Ma Si, Pei Yan, and Jiang Fusheng. It would be better if we can find evidence of their crimes on the spot, but it doesn't matter if we don't. Superintendent Xie Ming will organize people to raid their hideouts after the operation begins."

"The target probably won't surrender, so a fight is likely to break out. At that time, Chongxiao, Dezhou and I will try to capture the target as quickly as possible. Team Two will decide whether to go upstairs to provide support or help seal off the hall, depending on the situation."

"We may encounter an unprecedented number of enemies during the operation, including hired fighters from the mafia. Therefore, there is no equipment limit for this operation. Bring everything you can. If necessary... lethal force can be used."

Xingxiong's last words made everyone's eyes become extremely serious.

Being able to use lethal force is definitely not good news, because it shows how dangerous the Guards' opponent is this time.

But correspondingly, as long as these three people can be dealt with, it is basically equivalent to winning the battle to "recapture" Longmen.

"Ask your questions now if you have any. There are only a few hours left before the operation begins."

"Captain Xingxiong, can you give us a rough estimate of the size of the enemy?"

"The security of Yongle Food Court plus the guards of the three targets should number close to 100. If the operation doesn't go smoothly and nearby gang members come to support, then this number will probably triple or quadruple."

Doesn't that mean... we might have to deal with more than 500 people! ?

You know, even if the entire special inspection team is mobilized, there are only eight people who can engage in frontal combat, and the four tactical teams have only about thirty people in total. If that situation really happens, wouldn't everyone have to fight ten people at once?

Besides, these are not just ordinary people. How could a gang that has been operating in Longmen for more than ten years not have a few powerful thugs?

"So after the operation is successful, do we have to rush out with a target?"

"Leave this to me."

Superintendent Xie Ming at the side said, "An empty assault vehicle team will be patrolling in the area where you are operating, and will rush over immediately once we receive the order."

"Or...we can teach those gang members a lesson."

Xingxiong's domineering lines made most people focus on her, Chongxiao and Texas.

Needless to say, the strength of the first two is great. Texas has proven her combat effectiveness in recent days. It can be said that she is second only to Xingxiong Chongxiao in the current special inspection team.

But when it comes to dealing with a gang of several hundred people...

"Ahem... As long as you move quickly, you won't necessarily be surrounded. Remember that."

Xie Ming spoke out in time to prevent the spread of heroic ideas.

As a veteran of the Imperial Guards, he knew very well that if he really wanted to achieve the rule of law in Lungmen as a whole, he could not overemphasize the role of violence... As a general who retired from the battlefield, Xingxiong might not realize this, so he said such words.

Even if this action may really require reliance on violence...

"So sir, what should we do if... the Rat King appears?"

Rat King?

Xingxiong and Xie Ming looked at each other and neither answered immediately.

Although according to intelligence, the Rat King has not participated in any underworld activities for many years, but if this operation is successful, it will basically uproot the high-level underworld forces. Who can guarantee that he will not interfere?

If Wei Yanwu could attend the combat meeting at this time, everyone would be relieved, but unfortunately... he is still resting in his mansion.

"If he intends to intervene, Zhongxiao and I will stop him, and the others will evacuate the target as soon as possible."

It's not a solution at all, and even Xingxiong himself doesn't have the confidence to do it.

But at this moment, Chongxiao threw out a reassurance.

"Don't worry, the Rat King probably won't help them... Even if he does, I have a way to deal with him."

……

Lin Yuxia naturally had no idea how many secrets were "exposed" during her meeting with Chongxiao.

Chongxiao knew that she was actually running around for Longmen, and also knew that she appeared there to resolve an emergency, and also noticed a detail about her identity.

Gangster daughter.

According to the information obtained from the investigation, among the three people targeted by the special inspection team, only Boss Pei had a daughter, but she died of illness many years ago, so Lin Yuxia had nothing to do with any of them.

So which gangster boss’ daughter is this Zarak girl? The answer is very clear.

Please don't get me wrong, Chongxiao's idea was not to use Lin Yuxia's relationship to get the Rat King to stop interfering, but to use Lin Yuxia to threaten him when the situation is critical... Of course, this guy is not despicable enough to really do that, but it is still possible to trick the Rat King and make him hesitate...

At this time, Lin Yuxia certainly didn't know that she had been targeted by someone. She was trying to find out the recent movements of Ma Si, Pei Yan and Jiang Fusheng to see what means these three guys were going to use to deal with Xing Xiong and Chong Xiao.

Originally, this matter should have been handled by Lin Gerui, who would have made sure that the Royal Guards could get rid of those three guys. This would have ensured that the Royal Guards would officially take over Longmen.

In the end, no one knew what had happened to the usually sensible Wei Yanwu. He suddenly did this, and Lin Gerui was so angry that he was ready to just give up...

Lin Yuxia does not yet have the ability and status to influence the older generation, so after finding out what her father had said and confirming that the gang was planning to take action against Xingxiong and Chongxiao, she began her own investigation.

The first one was Ma Si, who was engaged in arms smuggling. About a week ago, this guy imported a batch of goods from outside. He did not take Longmen’s regular freight route, but transported them up from a maintenance channel in a certain block.

The Guards also knew this information, but were not sure what it was. However, Lin Yuxia found out through her father's influence that it was an assembly part of military heavy weapons.

"Damn...is he crazy?"

After waving her hand to let the spy leave, Lin Yuxia couldn't help but mutter.

There is no regular army stationed in Longmen. Apart from the Guards Bureau, probably only the Tianshi Team of the Natural Disaster Defense Command Center has some combat effectiveness.

This is because Longmen itself advocates tolerance, freedom and openness, and its routes are close to the two "dangerous places" of Ursus and Kazdel. If there are regular troops of Dayan stationed there, it would be a bit provocative no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, there shouldn't be any heavy military weapons here... The more critical point is, what kind of weapons are they? Will they cause extensive damage to Longmen itself?

Lin Yuxia, with a stern expression, turned and walked to the other side of the street, but suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"What are you doing here, Lin Yuxia?"

They were Chen Huijie and Shi Huaiya. Both of them were carrying a lot of daily necessities in their hands. They were probably preparing to report to the Royal Victoria Guard College.

If we calculate the time, Chen Huijie should be leaving in half a month...

"Why... you two are the only ones allowed to go out shopping all day, but I can't relax?"

Chen Huijie is a person with a strong sense of justice. If she knew what I am doing now, she would definitely ask for help.

So it’s best to let them do what they need to do as soon as possible, and not let them keep up with you out of curiosity...

"you……"

Shi Huaiya frowned slightly, and then immediately brought out the temper of a young lady, "I'm just asking you kindly, why are you so rude... I didn't provoke you, did I?"

"Of course not, but I have a lot of things to do. I can't just sit there and do nothing like Miss Shi Huaiya, wasting my time."

"Hey! Do you want to quarrel?"

Chen Huijie, who originally wanted to say something, stepped forward and blocked the angry Shi Huaiya when he saw this.

The two of them went out shopping this time in preparation for reporting to the Royal Guards College... It was full-time teaching there, so they would have to bring a lot of things with them.

"You're being a little too harsh, Lin Yuxia."

"Thank you for the compliment. I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you any longer."

"and many more!"

Seeing Lin Yuxia turning around and about to leave, Chen Huijie suddenly called out to stop her.

"Anything else?"

"That's right, Xiaojie, why are you calling her? Just let her go!"

Shi Huaiya's personality is usually very good, except when he meets Lin Yuxia, he might enter a stiff and arrogant mode, but this is only in a few cases... usually it is the result of the competition between the two of them on certain things.

"I remember... you always wanted to learn swordsmanship, right?"

"Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

Lin Yuxia frowned.

Her Originium skills, which serve as the basis of combat, actually have little to do with swordsmanship. It is just that since she received traditional Yan Nation education, it is natural that she also has to learn martial arts.

The petite Zalak women are not suitable for martial arts, nor can they use heavy weapons, so the only things they can learn are swordsmanship and hidden weapons...

"Well... it's like this, I recently found a very good swordsmanship teacher."

"I won't follow Governor Wei... Wait! You mean recently?"

This time, Lin Yuxia was really a little surprised.

Chen Huijie had already been learning swordsmanship from Wei Yanwu. She and Shi Huaiya both knew about it. Why did he suddenly find another swordsmanship teacher?

"Yes, although it's a little... unreliable, what he taught me is very practical. If you are interested..."
