Battle Royale of the Sinners Chapter 477 Duck You, Tong

Chapter 477 - Duck You, Tong
"Oh, well. Tong is finishing this unification game."
Li Feihong tilted his neck, creating a cracking sound. He was warming up for a serious fight against Hongnong garrison forces.
As Li Feihong was stretching, he turned toward Bo Cai and Zhou Cang before he confirmed his command.
"I'll open two portals inside Hongnong City. Prepare your troops. Give me your fastest deployment time, so I can time the portals."
Bo Cai was also in the clan chat, and he knew that Tong made Li Feihong their grand commander in this campaign. He cupped his fist and saluted.
"Understood, grand commander Li! It will be done in 10 minutes!"
"Make it 30. No rush. We'll have to wait for Zhang Liao to return from the observation trip."
"Thank you, sir!"
Bo Cai kicked the ground and dashed toward his army.
However, Zhou Cang did not move. As a former comrade of Liu Bei, he did not want to betray his old lord nor Tong.
"You can stay, Zhou Cang. I understand your feeling."
Zhou Cang bowed and left quietly. He returned to his residence and drowned himself with Li Feihong's wine.
Meanwhile, Lu Lingqi was still by Li Feihong's side, clinging to his arm. She looked at this charming otherworlder with sparkling eyes.
"Are you deploying your troops? Can I go with you?"
Li Feihong rolled his eyes, "If you're with me, then you'll be staying here. I won't join the battle, but I'll monitor and command the fight from this world."
"Eh? Shouldn't you join the assault, too? My father said generals must lead their men on the frontline. Any commander that hide behind their soldiers is a coward."
"I'm a coward, then."
"Aren't you ashamed of being a coward?"
"Hah! If being a coward gets things done, so be it. I'll happily be the strongest coward of the Han Dynasty!"
"…"
Lu Lingqi was disappointed that she could not see Li Feihong in action. Also, she still did not understand Li Feihong's character, but she found his mystery persona attractive.
.
.
30 Minutes later, Bo Cai assembled the Monster Legion's 50,000 men. However, Zhang Liao had not returned from Ji yet.
Still, he sent a message to Li Feihong.
Zhang Liao: "Attack Hongnong without me. The city is undefended since Guan Yu is captured by Zuo Ci. Bo Cai and you should no problem raiding it from the inside."
Li Feihong: "Okay. Raiding Hongnong Operation is a go!"
After finished typing, Li Feihong opened two portals in Hongnong City. These gates directed to the front yard at Hongnong's government buildings, where all civil officers and the acting governor were working inside.
The first batch of 20,000 men, including Bo Cai, rushed out of the portals and entered the buildings.
Fortunately, Bo Cai was not leading a cavalry unit this time. As Li Feihong heeded Tong's warning, Bo Cai had never commanded a cavalry unit after he fought alongside Tong in his early days.
Or else, Bo Cai would have just simply commanded his horse unit to "CAVALRY CHARGE," and he might ruin the plan.
*TATATATA*
Soldiers entered government buildings as planned.
"What's wrong, soldiers?"
At first, the officials in the city thought that they were their militia guards that came to report something. But when they saw the unsheathed blades and swords, they realized that they were under attack.
"Drop your weapon!"
"On the ground!"
"Get down on the ground!"
As trained, Gao Shun and his men did not cause damage to the local officials since they had to occupy this city. For the sake of smooth acquisition, they avoided killing innocent workers.
The men acted as if they were from police officers in the modern world. They shouted and threatened the officials and their bodyguards to discard their weapons before they apprehended them.
The bodyguards in the buildings saw that their enemies were too many. Not wanting to risk their lives fighting in vain, they dropped their weapons and surrendered.
Bo Cai gathered all prisoners on the field before the main city hall and forced them to sit. 10,000 of his men surrounded these local men to maintain order while the rest of the crews searched through the government building area, hunting for stragglers or hiding officials.
Sounds of combat occasionally occurred due to desperate bodyguards and officials who panicked and took out their weapons. As a consequence, Bo Cai's men did not hesitate to strike.
Bloodshed happened, but they kept it as minimal as possible.
Meanwhile, the other group of 30,000 exited Li Feihong's world using the gate that opened within Hongnong's military barracks. These men with swords and spears captured every militia soldier and forced their commanders to surrender.
"Surrender! You're surrounded!"
"Drop your weapon! NOW!!"
A similar shouting and threatening took place here. However, the result was different.
Hongnong's garrison soldiers consisted of hired mercenaries, noble's private soldiers, and drafted militias without proper training. As a result, their reaction varied.
Mercenaries did not value loyalty but money and their lives. They also did not care about politics. Moreover, nobles in this world had a tradition of sparing the losing side's mercenaries, so they could recover their troop number after battles by turning them into their professional army platoon or slave soldiers.
These hired swords grew up in that custom.
Seeing the soldiers attacking them from the inside, they thought that some nobles in the city rebelled against Liu Bei. Realized the difference in number and preparation, these mercenary leaders did not hesitate to save their men's lives by giving up fighting, hoping to join their new lord.
Local militias did not hesitate to surrender since they were not professional soldiers. Obediently, most of the militias dropped their spears and followed the raider's instruction. Weak-willed men attempted to flee the scene or desert the garrison army, which forced Gao Shun's men to chase and catch these cowardly soldiers.
On the contrary, the noble's private armies resisted against Bo Cai's men since they thought that someone staged a coup d'état. These people were like triads in ancient times. They did not want to surrender their local authority to anyone.
Thus, small skirmishes between a few hundred triad members and Gao Shun's platoons made the town acquisition hectic.
But the chaos in the city did not last long.
*BANG*
*BANG*
*BANG*
Gunshot sounds echoed throughout the city.
While a group of Bo Cai's soldiers was in combat, a small portal always opened behind their enemy's ranks, and a hand with a gun appeared from the gate.
It was Li Feihong's hand with his pistol.
As Li Feihong was sitting inside his private dimension, he provided cover fire for the teams, who had difficulty taking down the resisting local troops.
This coward otherworlder had the strength and skills to fight in the open, but he always picked this fighting method since it was more convenient, even though it cost him 100 years of lifespan every time he opened a new portal.
It was like playing a game. Li Feihong watched the monitors in his world to find a threat. Upon locating any suspicious individual, he opened a portal behind the guy and shot him to death.
After sniping ringleaders of noble private soldiers, their morale and formation collapsed within a couple of minutes.
The entire city acquisition process lasted an hour, much less time consuming than conventional siege warfare.
Lu Lingqi witnessed the entire fight from start to finish.
At first, she was skeptical about Li Feihong's cowardice, sitting back without joining the troops. After Lu Lingqi saw how this charming scholar fought, she admired him more.
The little girl jumped on Li Feihong's lap and hugged him as usual.
"Haven't your father taught you how to behave? I'm busy here." Li Feihong got annoyed.
"Let me stay here with you! I want to see you fight in more battles!"
This girl forgot about her previous marriage issues. Now, she wanted to tag along with the Monster Legion and experience more wars.
"Well, sure. Like I have a choice."
Li Feihong gave up dealing with this cheeky girl. He opened his clan chat menu and reported the battle result to Tong.
.
Li Feihong: "@Tong, Hongnong is down. What should I do next?"
Tong: "(・w・)!?"
Tong: "I made you the grand commander, so you can do everything yourself. Why asking me?"
Li Feihong: "Oh, never mind, then. My bad habit."
Tong: "If you need consultants, you have Ju Shou and Xun You. Ask them for their opinions if you don't know what to do with your men."
Tong: "I'll remind you again in case you forgot. I want you to eliminate Liu Bei's forces, including the capture of Liang Province and the nearby lands that Liu Bei has occupied."
Li Feihong: "Can I give my authority to Lu Bu or other generals?"
Tong: "(・w・)!?"
Tong: "If you're lazy, go for it."
Tong: "But if those guys mess up, you will be taking full responsibility for that."
Li Feihong: "Neat! Thanks!"
.
The cowardly grand commander stretched his arms above his head and yawned. He patted Lu Lingqi's head and glanced at her.
"Can you stand? I have work to do."
The girl smiled, "Nope! I like sitting on your lap!"
"I have to deal with the aftermath, little girl. See the monitors? I have to get there and explain to those local officials that they're working for the emperor now."
"Eh? That pervert emperor again? Why are you working for him anyway?"
"He's my boss. What else?"
"Someone like you should be the emperor instead!
"Oi! If anyone hears it, you and I will be dead!"
"I don't care! I hate Zhang Tong, but I like you more! Marry me, so I don't have to marry Zhang Tong!"
Lu Lingqi tightened her hug and squeezed her chest with Li Feihong's chest. The small butts rubbed the latter's private area, causing the Li Feihong to jump in a panic.
The girl's attitude and behavior was too dangerous. Without hesitation, he complained to her father right away.
.
Li Feihong: "@Lu Bu, your daughter is too assertive. Come and get her back ASAP before I snap and rape her!"
Lu Bu: "Bastard! If you're going to marry her anyway, do it for all I care! If you don't, I kill you and your 9 generations!"
Everyone: "…"
Li Feihong: "Her butt is rubbing my D!! I can't hold!!"
Everyone: "…"
Tong: "How old is Lu Lingqi again?"
Lu Bu: "... I forgot."
Li Feihong: "... A middle schooler age, I think."
Tong: "(・w・)!?"
Tong: "I've changed my mind. Li Feihong, can you escort her to the palace later?"
Everyone: "…"
Li Feihong: "I've also changed my mind. Fuck you, Tong! I'm taking her!!"
Lu Bu: "That's more like it!! Breed with my daughter, Feihong!! Your seed is superior to that asshole emperor!!"
Everyone: "…"
Li Feihong: "You know what? On second thought, I'm taking my virginity to the grave!!"
