Black Flag Army

Boss Zhang sneered, "No matter how good your martial arts skills are, can they stop a bullet? I have a quick gun in my hand, and it only takes one bullet to kill him. Of course, if you can avoid shooting, try not to shoot."

Wu Chunfeng asked, "When does the boss plan to take action?"

Zhang Laodao said: "Let's do it tonight. The second brother, I, Xiao Leng, Xiao Hong and four of us should be enough. The third brother, 'Puppy' and Wu Chunfeng will guard the house."

Qian Lao Er said: "Why do you want to bring Xiao Leng and Xiao Hong? They are only sixteen or seventeen years old."

Zhang Laodao said: "Don't underestimate Xiao Leng. Although this kid is a taciturn person who doesn't talk much and always has a stern face, he practices martial arts very hard and is very vicious. He is a good candidate for a cold-blooded killer. Xiao Hong is also a daredevil who dares to fight and kill. It's time to let them see blood. I can't keep them for nothing. After a few more experiences, I can let them do this kind of thing in the future."

In the middle of the night, Zhang Lao Da and his four companions, wearing masks and black night clothes, climbed over the wall and entered Di Xiong's yard. Zhang Lao Da and Qian Lao Er both had pistols, while Leng Hanbing and Hong Tianlei only had knives. Zhang Lao Da asked Qian Lao Er to pry open Di Xiong's door, and then asked Leng Hanbing to go in and explore the way. Qian Lao Er heard the sound of fighting and Leng Hanbing's roar inside, and hurriedly drew his gun and rushed in. Of course, he didn't know that it was just Leng Zhaibing acting alone. Di Xiong was lying in ambush at the door. When he saw Qian Lao Er coming in, he raised his knife with his right hand and stabbed him, while his left hand grabbed his gun-holding hand. Before Qian Lao Er could see what was going on, he had been pierced through the heart by the knife. When he pulled it out, blood spurted out. When he opened his mouth to scream, Leng Hanbing's knife had arrived and pierced his throat. He couldn't scream, and his body slowly fell limp.

Outside, Boss Zhang and Hong Tianlie also fought, and Hong Tianlie had been knocked to the ground. Boss Zhang heard something wrong just now, and quickly pulled out his gun. Hong Tianlie was impatient, and before Di Xiong and the others came out, he kicked away Boss Zhang's pistol, and stabbed Boss Zhang in the abdomen with his knife. Boss Zhang's martial arts were much better than Hong Tianlie's. Just now, his pistol was kicked away because he was not prepared. Now that he was prepared, how could he succeed? He kicked away Hong Tianlie's sharp knife, and punched him so hard that his nose and mouth were bleeding and he fell to the ground.

Boss Zhang pulled out another spare pistol and pointed it at Hong Tianlie, cursing, "You little bastard! I've raised you for several years, and you actually want to rebel. Today I'll send you to hell!"

He was about to shoot when he suddenly felt a gust of wind behind his head. He quickly squatted down and ducked his head to avoid a flying kick, but the opponent followed up with a palm strike, and he failed to dodge, and his pistol was knocked out of his hand. He fell to the ground and rolled more than ten steps away. He stood up quickly and saw in the moonlight that his opponent was a young man in his twenties. Leng Hanbing was standing behind the young man. Zhang Lao Da's heart sank, knowing that Leng Hanbing had also betrayed him.

Boss Zhang said to the young man, "This brother must be Di Xiong! He is really skilled and even bribed my men. This is not what a real man should do."

Di Xiong didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he rushed forward with his knife. However, Zhang Lao Da was the strongest opponent he had ever met, and he was very fast in dodging. After fighting for more than ten rounds, Di Xiong finally saw the opportunity to stab Zhang Lao Da in the abdomen with a knife. He was also hit by a punch at the same time. Leng Hanbing went up and stabbed him several times before he was completely killed. In fact, Di Xiong also had a gun. Although his pistol had been handed in, he seized a pistol from Liang Mazi. In order to prevent the gunshots from attracting the police or the garrison, he decided to kill them with a knife.

Bai Xiuling ran out when she saw that Zhang Lao Da was dead. She kicked his body several times and cursed with tears in her eyes, "You beast! You have harmed so many people, and now you have ended up like this!"

After burying the two bodies in the earth pit that had been dug in the courtyard, Di Xiong and Leng Hanbing went straight to the Flying Eagle Gang's lair in Huangdian Village. Although the city gate was closed, they easily climbed over the city wall with the Flying Tiger Claw and left the city. Hong Tianlie went to Xishiku Hospital alone to kill Fei Bao. Di Xiong thought that Fei Bao was seriously injured and it should not be difficult to kill him.

The land temple in Huangdian Village is a lonely and dilapidated temple with only a few small trees nearby. Wu Chunfeng suddenly attacked and captured Lu Laosan, but was discovered by the "puppy". The "puppy" was called Gou Zongwei. Although he was a small soldier, he was very loyal to Fei Bao because Fei Bao had saved him. Wu Chunfeng knew that it was impossible to persuade him to rebel, so he regarded him as an opponent. Gou Zongwei gathered several gang members to attack Wu Chunfeng, wanting to rescue Lu Laosan. When he was in danger, Gou Zongwei saw Leng Hanbing coming. Leng Hanbing knocked down two gang members as soon as he came up. Gou Zongwei hurriedly fled, and the other gang members also scattered. After Di Xiong killed Lu Laosan, under the guidance of Wu Chunfeng, he searched a large iron box from the land temple, which contained all the property of the Flying Eagle Gang. Di Xiong used the key found on Zhang Lao Da to unlock it. When he opened it, he saw that there were more than 2,000 silver dollars alone, as well as gold bars, jewelry, jade and other items, with a total value of more than 6,000 yuan.

Leng Hanbing and Wu Chunfeng were not to mention, even Di Xiong was very excited to see so much money. He was silent for a long time before he said to the two teenagers: "It is everyone's credit to eradicate the Flying Eagle Gang. It is reasonable to give you some of this money. However, even if each person gets 1,000 yuan, it will be used up eventually, not to mention that jewelry and other items can only be sold at a discount to the pawnshop. I have an idea. Now each person will only be given 100 yuan, and the rest of the money will be used to start a company. The company will operate a textile factory, a pharmaceutical factory and an iron factory. You are all shareholders of the company and can get dividends from the company's operating income every year. This is a long-term approach. What do you think?"

Di Xiong had already learned about their specialties from Bai Xiuling and felt that they were talents he urgently needed, so he wanted to use this method to keep them as assistants.

Leng Hanbing said: "The three bosses were all killed by Mr. Di. If it weren't for Mr. Di's help, we might still be working as slaves under them, or even dead. This money should be under the control of Mr. Di. No matter how Mr. Di uses it, I won't object!" In Leng Hanbing's opinion, Di Xiong said this just to win people's hearts. Historically, the property seized by the gangs would of course belong to the boss alone.

Wu Chunfeng also nodded in agreement. Di Xiong also persuaded them to go to Weili Hotel to help out when they had nowhere to go temporarily. His hotel business was booming and needed more staff. After the two teenagers discussed it, they both agreed. The three buried the body and took away the property in the iron box. The next day, the "Minfeng" newspaper reported the news that Inspector Ma led the police to eradicate the evil Flying Eagle Gang and killed the leader. Inspector Ma became a candidate for deputy director because of this. He also spent money to arrange it himself and became deputy director two months later.

Hong Tianlie's attempt to assassinate Fei Bao failed. The Xishiku Church Hospital was near the Xishiku Church, which was a Russian protected area patrolled by Russian patrolmen. They found Hong Tianlie looked ferocious and suspicious, so they stopped him and searched him. As a result, they found a sharp knife. Hong Tianlie surrendered at gunpoint, and the Russian police put him in the police station.

The next day, Di Xiong learned that Hong Tianlie was arrested, and immediately asked Inspector Ma for help. He spent several hundred dollars to rescue Hong Tianlie. Leng Hanbing saw that Di Xiong was very loyal and active, and he could not help but admire him a little more. He felt that what Bai Xiuling said made sense, and Di Xiong was indeed a talent for being a boss. After Di Xiong rescued Hong Tianlie, he went to find Fei Bao and found that he had been discharged from the hospital. Leng Hanbing judged from the nurse's description of his appearance that the person who took him out of the hospital was Gou Zongwei.

Di Xiong and Bai Xiuling went to Xicheng Hospital to visit Wu Chunlei again, gave him flowers and fruits, and apologized to him. Wu Chunlei was very moved. Wu Chunlei's injury was not serious. Although he was swollen, it was only a flesh wound. Di Xiong was lenient because he was a teenager. However, the doctor exaggerated the condition in order to collect more money. Under the persuasion of Bai Xiuling and Wu Chunfeng, Wu Chunlei agreed to join Di Xiong's men.

There were many beggars on the street in the evening who were starving to death. Wang Shitou and Zhang Kuwa were the two youngest among them, only fifteen or sixteen years old. Their clothes were so dirty and torn that the colors could not be distinguished. Their shoes were torn, revealing their red toes from the cold. Wang Shitou remembered that his last meal was yesterday morning, which was a few moldy radishes found in the garbage dump at the vegetable market.

The smell of food from the Weili Restaurant attracted Wang Shitou and Zhang Kuwa. They walked towards the restaurant with the mentality of giving it a try, hoping to get some leftovers. Tortured by hunger, they were already staggering as they walked, supporting each other. They had been to three restaurants before, but because of the strong stench on their bodies, they were driven away by waiters or vicious dogs before they even entered the door.

Zhang Heimian saw two young beggars coming over, and out of habit he stepped forward to block them and said, "You can't go in! The stench on you will drive away the customers."

Zhang Kuwa saw that this guy was not as fierce as the others, so he knelt down and said, "Sir! Please be kind, we won't go in. Just give us some leftovers. We are almost starving to death."

Di Xiong happened to come out and saw this scene, and said to Zhang Heimian: "Go get ten steamed buns and two bowls of meat soup."

After the steamed buns were brought, Zhang Kuwa stretched out his black hands to grab the snow-white hot buns and ate them in big mouthfuls. Wang Shitou did not take the buns, however. He noticed that Zhang Heimian was very respectful to Di Xiong and thought that Di Xiong was the boss, so he knelt down and said to Di Xiong: "Boss! After we finish this meal, we will still have to go hungry. Can you please find us a job?"

Di Xiong looked at his dark and thin face, and said with an idea in his mind, "Working for me requires a lot of hardship and risks."

Wang Shitou said: "As long as we have something to eat, we are not afraid of hardship or risk."

Zhang Kuwa chewed his steamed buns and said in a vague voice: "We can endure any hardship."

Di Xiong said, "Okay! I'll take it. Hei Lian will take them to the backyard to take a hot bath and change into clean clothes."
