<h4>Chapter 1811: Chapter 1812: Unexpected Incident Before the Battle</h4>
In the evening, Xia Cheng called Xiang Yu.
"Do you have time tomorrow? We should meet." Xia Cheng spoke with a sense of superiority, after all Xiang Yu was now a wanted man nationwide, and he had to temporarily stay with Xia Cheng.
Xia Cheng already had his own ns. He would first let Xiang Yu stay with him, and eventually swallow Xiang Yu’s power.
As long as they engulfed Xiang Yu, there would only be them and Wolf Fang left as mercenary forces in northern Little Pasha.
"Sure, I’ve been waiting for your call." Xiang Yu said happily.
Hearing Xiang Yu’s cheerful tone, Xia Cheng sneered inwardly and said, "Tomorrow morning at ten, let’s meet at the Wuxiang Coffin in the city."
"Ten in the morning?" Xiang Yu sounded puzzled, then chuckled, "Isn’t that too early? Plus, we have to go into the city. Why don’t we meet in the afternoon? That’s safer."
"Hmph, since when did you be so timid?" Xia Cheng snorted. "Fine, for your safety, let’s meet at six in the evening, don’t bete."
Xia Chengughed and then hung up the phone.
Currently, Xia Cheng felt very proud considering that the two were once love rivals, and now Xiang Yu wasing under hismand. It was a pleasure he couldn’t describe.
"Commander, could this be a trap? I’ve heard Xiang Yu is not a simple character, not the kind to stay long under someone else’s power," a person reminded from the side.
With a face full of disdain, Xia Cheng said, "Even if he’s formidable, when facing the entirety of Little Pasha, he’s still insignificant. Who doesn’t want to survive? For survival, he would eat even if he had to eat ****."
"Themander is right, who doesn’t want to survive." Several people around nodded in agreement.
"Just wait, once we wipe out Xiang Yu and then take care of Wolf Fang, we’ll dominate the mercenary world in Little Pasha." Xia Cheng fantasized high and mighty.
The people around exchanged nces and nodded with smiles, all dreaming of that day’s arrival.
After returning to the base, Xiang Yu called Wang Qian to inform her about the preparations.
Wang Qian had always been worried about Xiang Yu taking the lead. She knew that in this period, Xiang Yu’s group developed rapidly but not yet to the extent of confronting the Menghu Mercenary Corps head-on.
Moreover, the main base of the Menghu Mercenary Corps must have been built in a strategic location that’s easy to defend and hard to attack. If Xiang Yu acted rashly, he would definitely suffer.
"Xiang Yu, I understand what you’re thinking, but war isn’t like other things. You can’t be impulsive. Let us take the main force this time," Wang Qian said worriedly.
"Just rx and wait; nothing will happen," Xiang Yu said confidently.
Seeing Xiang Yu’s determination, Wang Qian didn’t argue further. After discussing some countermeasures, she hung up the phone.
Wang Qian was already preparing. After all, Xiang Yu had provided her with the locations of four Menghu Mercenary Corps bases. Although none were the main ones, she had to give it her all.
Moreover, this could be herst battle in Little Pasha before leaving. She wanted to give it her all and also showcase Wolf Fang’s strength.
Meanwhile, Xiaoxuan stood there puzzled, "Brother, are we really not taking part this time?"
Tie Zhuzi sat leisurely on the side, drinking water and looking at the ceiling, appearing bored.
This time Xiang Yu borrowed Wolf Fang’s power for the periphery, using the military forces of Little Pasha to attack the main forces of Menghu Mercenary Corps, while their own people weren’t in trouble at all.
"Let the brothers rest a bit. Our task now is to seize the opportunity for growth," Xiang Yu coughed dryly.
Tie Zhuzi and Xiaoxuan exchanged a nce and nodded. Putting it nicely, they were seeking development; put bluntly, they were being irresponsible and shameless.
The next afternoon, to be safe, Xiang Yu called Rumus, but the call never went through, giving Xiang Yu a bad premonition.
If Rumus didn’t take action and Wang Qian moved first, they might get surrounded.
"What’s wrong, brother?" Xiaoxuan, seeing Xiang Yu’s unusual expression, asked worriedly.
"Something’s happened with Rumus," Xiang Yu said grimly.
This was something Xiang Yu hadn’t anticipated. After cooperating with Rumus for so long, it was the first time something went wrong.
"What?" Just entering, Tie Zhuzi heard this and anxiously asked, "At this point, what could possibly have happened?"
Everything Xiang Yu had nned was in ce except for this oversight, as Rumus was from Little Pasha’s military, often forced into tough situations.
After thinking for a while, Xiang Yu instructed, "Xiaoxuan, gather the first brigade’s brothers, have them fully armed and ready."
"Brother, there are too few in the first brigade; should we also call on the second brigade?" Xiaoxuan asked anxiously.
They always thought their own brothers wouldn’t be needed, so they hadn’t prepared. Now it was toote to prepare.
"No need." Xiang Yu decisively said, then took his phone and made another call.
"Wang Qian, how are your preparations?" Xiang Yu asked, his tone very serious.
Wang Qian, used to Xiang Yu’sid-back style, found his serious manner a bit uncharacteristic, "Are you okay?" she asked.
"I’m fine. How’s it over there?" Xiang Yu inquired.
"Everything’s ready here, just waiting for the time to start the attack." Wang Qian replied.
"Don’t mind the timing. Wait for my signal. Without my call, don’t make a rash move," Xiang Yu ordered firmly, the tone leaving no room for doubt.
"Got it, I’ll follow your orders tonight." Wang Qian answered straightforwardly.
She trusted Xiang Yu; from their interactions, she knew everything Xiang Yu did was meticulously nned.
After hanging up, Xiang Yu made another call to Rumus, but it still went unanswered.
Convinced something went wrong with Rumus, Xiang Yu no longer held any hope and headed outside.
Tie Zhuzi followed Xiang Yu out, feeling a thrill he couldn’t exin.
This time Rumus not responding meant they might have to go to battle, something Tie Zhuzi had been eagerly anticipating.
Outside, the first brigade had assembled, facing Xiang Yu with determination and the resolve of aing battle.
Xiang Yu moved to a higher vantage point, looking down at the more than a hundred brothers, feeling his pride surge.
"Brothers, this mission might be dangerous. Be cautious, don’t hesitate against the enemy," Xiang Yu dered firmly.
This was his oversight; he had put too much trust in Rumus.
"Brother Yu, rest assured, I’ll bring them there safely and bring them back safely," Wu Jing said, pounding his chest.
"Exactly, Brother Yu, don’t worry, I’ll also bring them back," Tie Zhuzi shouted out.
"You’re not going; there’s other work for you," Xiang Yu nced at Tie Zhuzi and said.
Tie Zhuzi: "..."
