<h4>Chapter 1710: Chapter 1711: Cooperation with the Allied Forces</h4>


    Inside Luang Feng Mountain, Ryan sat quietly when the phone rang. It was his superior calling.


    "Sir." Ryan greeted respectfully.


    "It can now be basically confirmed that Meng Hu has sacrificed himself. The specific identity of the perpetrator is still unclear, but preliminary judgment indicates it was ****." The person on the other side said.


    "Without Meng Hu and his team, we’re like losing an eye." Ryan replied.


    "How are Wolf Fang and the others?" the person asked.


    "Wolf Fang has agreed to cooperate with us; Wang Qian is still hesitant. It seems that her decision is greatly influenced by Xiang Yu." Ryan replied.


    "Xiang Yu? Are you referring to the leader of the Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps?" the person asked.


    "That’s him." Ryan replied.


    "Just a minor character, if necessary, deal with him directly. Such a person is inconsequential." The person said decisively.


    Ryan just made a symbolic sound of agreement. Others might not understand Xiang Yu, but he had some insight.


    Xiang Yu was talented, and Ryan wanted to bring him under his wing.


    "There will be new personnel arriving at the Menghu Mercenary Corps to take charge in the next few days. Keep in contact with them." The person said.


    "Who are they? Are they sent by you?" Ryan asked quickly.


    The Menghu Mercenary Corps had always been in the open, providing him with a lot of information, and his previous cooperation with Meng Hu was quite pleasant.


    "Not me, they are sent by people on that side." The person said.


    Ryan knew who he was referring to, although they belonged to the samerge system, they appeared in different forms.


    The two chatted about other matters before hanging up the phone.


    Ryan sat quietly for a while before picking up the phone to make a call.


    "Call Xiang Yu and Wang Qian to the meeting room." Ryan instructed.


    Having said that, he also got up and headed towards the meeting room, as he was quite far from it. By the time he arrived, Xiang Yu and Wang Qian were already seated.


    "What are you calling me for in the middle of the night? Miss me already?" Xiang Yu saidzily.


    Ryan smiled and said, "Have you made your decision?"


    He first looked at Wang Qian, which showed his respect for Wolf Fang.


    "Xiang Yu’s thoughts are my thoughts." Wang Qian directly shifted the question to Xiang Yu.


    She had already discussed it with Xiang Yu, after all, both of them were trapped here and couldn’t act freely.


    Now Wang Qian was eager to contact her brothers; she had been missing for days, and if there were no updates, it might rm the higher-ups at Wolf Fang.


    After all, Wang Qian was the leader of the Little Ba division base, with a very prestigious status. In Wolf Fang, she was considered mid-level.


    Ryan expected this oue and turned to Xiang Yu, "So, what are you thinking?"


    "I’m willing to cooperate with you, but I have conditions." Xiang Yu said.


    Ryanughed at this and said, "Conditions are negotiable."


    Xiang Yu coughed and said, "You’ve frightened us greatly by bringing us here without any reason, so you mustpensate for the psychological damage."


    Ryanughed again; as long as Xiang Yu set conditions, everything was open for negotiation, since Xiang Yu’s team was a mercenary group, half business-minded.


    Businessmen value profit highly, which everyone knows, so Ryan wasn’t surprised.


    "A billion per person isn’t too much, is it?" Xiang Yu chuckled.


    Although he had no concept of money, a bit of extortion was feasible.


    "Of course, if you like money, I can have someone deliver it to you," Ryan said.


    Ryan was indifferent to money; their goal wasn’t about money. They had as much as they wanted, and if not enough, they could print some themselves.


    "Straightforward, I like dealing with straightforward people." Xiang Yu pped the table and said, "Hey there, get me a ss of water."


    Ryan, Wang Qian: "..."


    At this moment, someone indeed pushed the door open, thinking they were summoned by Ryan.


    "It’s none of your business, get out." Ryan frowned slightly, annoyed.


    The water and the ss were not far from Xiang Yu; he could easily get it himself.


    The guard, puzzled and seeing Ryan’s anger, quickly retreated.


    "Stingy, I’ve been talking for so long without even a drop of water." Xiang Yu pointedly looked at Ryan and continued, "We can cooperate, but you can’t make us take all the hits, rushing ahead to take bullets for you."


    "Don’t worry, we would never do such a thing. As long as you join our alliance, we will not only support you with weaponry but also in other areas. We’ll be one family." Ryan said.


    "If you’re not letting us take the bullets, what’s the point of joining your alliance?" Xiang Yu asked, puzzled.


    "You just need to provide intelligence for us." Ryan replied.


    "Is it really that simple?" Xiang Yu chuckled.


    "Of course, as long as you provide information for us, and in special times we fight together," Ryan said.


    Ryan had his own ns, after all, Xiang Yu and Wang Qian had just joined; naturally, he wouldn’t involve them in battles.


    He wanted to gradually draw the two deeper in, first by offering benefits, slowly pulling them further until they were fully integrated into the alliance.


    "What do you mean by special times?" Xiang Yu pursued.


    "At the time of life and death battles." Ryan’s face was very serious, with a hint of anticipation.


    Xiang Yu and Wang Qian nced at each other. From Ryan’s expression, it seemed that the time was approaching soon.


    "No problem." Xiang Yu agreed readily, "You’ve been here for years without a big move, I’m confident you won’t have one in the future either, so I have no worries about you."


    "Very good." Ryan said, then turned to Wang Qian, "So you agree as well?"


    "As I said, Xiang Yu’s opinion is mine." Wang Qian responded simply.


    "Great. It’s settled then. Remember what you’ve promised; I’ll notify you if there’s anything." Ryan said cheerfully.


    "No problem. Since we’re allyrades now, shouldn’t you provide some operational funds?" Xiang Yu grinned, appearing like a simple viger.


    Seeing Xiang Yu’s demeanor, Ryan chuckled, "Rest assured, you’ll neverck money or weapons. As long as we cooperate happily, we’ll support you greatly, helping you grow stronger quickly."


    "That’s wonderful, it’s a deal then." Xiang Yu stood up, walked to Ryan, and shook his hand.


    "Do we need a contract or something?" Xiang Yu asked happily.


    "No need, as long as we’ve agreed verbally. I’m not afraid of you backing out." Ryan said with a mysterious smile.


    Ryan had a strong confidence, knowing that since Xiang Yu and Wang Qian had agreed, if they backed out, he wouldn’t spare them...
