<h4>Chapter 1733: Chapter 1734: Xiang Yu Is an Observer</h4>
"Are you in the designated position?" Ryan asked, beginning to sound a bit annoyed.
If usually Xiang Yu acted carefree, Ryan could tolerate it, but now was wartime, and changes on the battlefield had exceeded Ryan’s expectations, so he felt a bit agitated inwardly.
"I’m not your subordinate, no need to shout at me," Xiang Yu replied indifferently.
Ryan snorted coldly, thinking back to when he captured Xiang Yu at his base—he wasn’t like this then.
"Right, we currently have a cooperative rtionship," Ryan calmed himself and said.
After this war was over, he nned to properly deal with Xiang Yu to make himpletely submit to him.
"Good to know. Go ahead and give your orders," Xiang Yu said.
Ryan was fuming inside, but he managed to control himself and said, "If you’re in the designated position, you’ll see a squad appearing behind our troops. Take your men and wipe them out."
After hearing this, Xiang Yu disdainfully said, "You’re overestimating me. They’re regr troops; how can wepare with them?"
"Don’t say useless things. Everyone knows that you mercenaries train just as hard as we do," Ryan snorted coldly.
Xiang Yu coughed a couple of times and said, "If you want us to eliminate that team, that’s impossible. But we can disrupt them a bit."
Ryan hadn’t expected Xiang Yu to be able to wipe out those people; he just wanted to test if Xiang Yu would follow his instructions.
"Okay, do your utmost to disrupt them from behind. Hold as long as you can; once I deal with these people, I will return to support you," Ryan said.
"Yes, I’m on it," Xiang Yu responded crisply.
Ryan snorted again and then directly hung up the phone.
After calling Xiang Yu, he called Wang Qian, but Wang Qian didn’t pick up.
Wang Qian also knew that tonight they shed with the rebel army. Now Ryan was calling, definitely hoping for her support.
But Wolf Fang never interfered in other countries’ internal affairs. They agreed to cooperate back then only because their freedom was restricted.
Now that she was free, and even Xiang Yu was released, she had no worries and thus ignored Ryan.
Ryan had anticipated that Wang Qian wouldn’t pick up his call.
After all, Wolf Fang was an international organization, and dragging them into this would be difficult.
After hanging up on Ryan, Xiang Yu took his team and quietly moved forward.
In the direction at the very back, Rumus’s troops were hidden, waiting for Scarface and his men.
Scarface was gradually approaching Rumus’s ambush zone but stopped short of the encirclement.
Because they had spotted Rumus’s ambush ahead and immediately opened fire.
Rumus’s troops hadn’t surrounded Scarface’s men, so quickly wiping out Scarface’s team was impossible.
As the two sides were fiercely engaged, another team, Xiang Yu’s, appeared behind Scarface’s men.
When someone reported this situation to Scarface, he was delighted, thinking these were supporting troops sent by Ryan.
With backup behind, Scarface was free of worry and instructed his men to fight fiercely, but as the rear team approached, he felt something was off.
Scarface called over his observer and instructed him to contact the rear team to avoid misunderstandings.
The observer quickly ran towards the back after receiving the task.
But after a while, the observer didn’t return. Scarface felt panicked and sent two more observers to check things out behind them.
Yet these two observers also didn’te back.
Scarface then realized the gravity of the situation. If the people behind were also enemies, he would face being besieged from both sides.
"All units, listen up, retreat immediately." Scarface was a decisive person, and upon realizing the problem, quickly issued a retreat order.
He had told Ryan before that if danger arose, he would retreat with his brothers first.
Clearly, now was the most dangerous time.
The members of the Timber Wolf were well-trained; upon receiving Scarface’s order, they quickly covered and retreated.
The enemy saw Scarface’s men trying to flee and began their counterattack.
"Brother Yu, let’s charge," Tie Zhuzi, shouldering a machine gun, said somewhat excitedly.
Xiang Yu shook his head, disagreeing.
They were now just creating pressure for Scarface’s team, not truly engaging in battle.
Earlier, Ryan had told Xiang Yu toe and support Scarface. After arriving, Xiang Yu didn’t reveal himself but created pressure to throw Scarface’s men into disarray.
Sure enough, Scarface thought the rear were enemies surrounding them, hence the rapid retreat order.
As the saying goes, "Like a mountain falling in defeat," once retreating, many soldiers lost their will to fight.
Scarface led his team in a fighting retreat, with manyrades falling during the withdrawal.
Xiang Yu and his group, hiding in the hills, watched as Scarface’s men ran far. Only then did he lead Tie Zhuzi and his group forward.
Not far ahead were the rebel troops, attempting to encircle the enemy.
"Fire, shoot fiercely," Xiang Yu shouted from behind.
When the rebel troops were suddenly attacked from behind, they were thrown into chaos. With the heavy firepower from behind, some didn’t react before meeting King Yan.
Tie Zhuzi fired his machine gun recklessly while the Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps swept with their assault rifles.
For Team One, this was nothing. They had followed Xiang Yu for a long time and experienced suchrge-scale operations before.
Meanwhile, Team Two just shot wildly, even if missing, it scared the enemies.
The rebels were disoriented for less than a minute before organizing to counterattack against Xiang Yu’s team.
From this, it was evident that the rebels had be a formidable force, with strict discipline and not to be underestimated.
"Retreat, fall back quickly," Xiang Yu ordered as he saw the opposition organizing their counterattack.
They were not only outnumbered, but Team Two was still untrained, making them no match for the rebels in such circumstances.
Regardless, the rebels pursued, ready for a pursuit until the trapped forces in the center began their counterattack.
Earlier, Xiang Yu’s wild shooting made the trapped forces inside think reinforcements had arrived.
Learning of potential reinforcements boosted their morale, preparing them to break free.
This caught the rebels off guard, as they had repositioned some troops to contain Xiang Yu, weakening the rear.
Under the enemy’s assault, a breach was finally made in the rear defenses...
