Thinking, Gao Family, oh Gao Family, even though I don't know whose big shot you've cozied up to, with so many military personnel deployed, you're bound to end up with egg on your face.
After watching over a hundred military vehicles drive away, Ye Hao returned to the right passage and then drove alone to catch up with Lu Yunsong and the others ahead.
Lu Yunsong and the others were waiting for Ye Hao ahead, then opened the communication device and asked, "Boss, how is it? Did the military personnel pass through?"
"They did. It was the elite unit from the Lingnan Military District, the Fierce Tiger Group," Ye Hao said with a smile.
"Haha, looks like those people invited by the Gao Family are in for a tough time," Xue Zhaolong laughed heartily in the car, having also found out the source of Ye Hao's Jade Seal. He expressed sympathy for Zheng Guang and promised that once he surpassed the Gao Family's Gao Lun in strength, he would be the first to help Zheng Guang avenge his family's grievances.
"Hehe, don't worry about them, we have another battlefield awaiting us," Ye Hao said with a smile.
"Boss, where's our next stop?" The three, including Xue Zhaolong, were very excited, eager to show off their skills with such profound martial arts.
"Pakistan," Ye Hao said with a smile.
Then the group headed toward Peng City, and at this time, Flying Fish also led Li Zhong and others to the mountains behind Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb.
At this moment, in the underground passage, the eight Guardians looked at the passage widening above, suppressing their excitement.
They all silently wondered what might be above.
When the passage was wide enough for people to walk up, the eight Guardians took a step forward and went inside.
When their eyes met the shiny white silver, their gaze flickered with greed.
Although they were Guardians of a certain faction, and it seemed prestigious, they had little money in hand. Now, seeing over ten cubic meters of silver, how could they not be tempted?
So, they all inconspicuously pocketed a few silver ingots, though one Guardian, thinking perhaps the silver in the middle was purer, took from there instead.
With his one move, the entire pile of silver collapsed with a loud crash.
The originally well-placed pile of silver became a chaotic mess.
The lead Guardian snorted coldly, "Are you looking for death?"
"Great Guardian, I dare not, I…" the Guardian said fearfully.
"Alright, have someone help move it out!" The lead Guardian wasn't truly angry, just putting on a show to instill some discipline among the subordinates.
Next, the eight Guardians watched over the silver ingots as they were packed up, guarding against any secret thefts.
Hundreds of tons of silver ingots were indeed too much, unlike gold, which is denser and takes up more space when piled.
They spent nearly an hour and hadn't even gathered a third of it.
...
In the vicinity of Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb, two thousand valiant and mighty Fierce Tiger Group members were already standing, and hearing of significant movements here, the local sub-military district in Xiang Province also sent a thousand soldiers. However, their presence was merely auxiliary and they couldn't participate in the actions of the Fierce Tiger Group.
"Brother Flying Fish, where's the entrance?" Li Zhong asked.
"Behind those two mountains ahead, these three people are their Mountain Guardians," Flying Fish pointed to the three National Martial Arts tenth-rank masters they had just brought in with Li Zhong and the others.
Although the Fierce Tiger Group didn't have National Martial Arts tenth-rank experts, the strength was in their prowess with guns and an abundance of firearms. The dense bullet storm made escaping impossible even for the three National Martial Arts tenth-rank masters.
The three Mountain Guardians paled upon seeing so many soldiers suddenly appear and knowing about their entrance, silently wondering who had exposed their major secret.
However, their fate was destined to be dire; Li Zhong ordered them to be taken to a base and then led his men towards the tunnel entrance.
The thousand soldiers from Xiang Province also replaced the Fierce Tiger Group to guard these mountains, preventing any stragglers from absconding with goods.
Flying Fish led two thousand soldiers swiftly over two mountains, and when Li Zhong saw those below digging and occasionally lifting a box out, he directed the two thousand Fierce Tiger Group members behind him, "Immediately divide into five groups, Group Five to head east, Group Two north, Group Three intercept the truck transport route, Group Four west, Group One follow me down the front; use warning shots against resistance, subdue those who resist again, understood?"
"Got it." The well-trained Fierce Tiger Group members split into five groups upon hearing Li Zhong's order.
Each group of four hundred quickly moved to their positions.
With Li Zhong's command, they rushed down from the mountain rapidly.
Due to the dense forest, the National Martial Arts first and second-rank experts digging below hadn't noticed Li Zhong and the others coming.
However, a middle-aged man taking a smoke break overhead seemed to hear something, frowning and asking his partner, "Did you hear anything?"
"Sounded like footsteps," his partner also heard it, and they both turned around.
Turning around, both of them fainted simultaneously because the Fierce Tiger Group had immediately subdued them upon approaching from behind, even knocking them out quietly. The Fierce Tiger Group's combat prowess was indeed impressive.
While they took control of the surface, the people below remained unaware.
Every person carrying a box out was captured upon emergence.
They were entirely waiting for those inside to walk out automatically into their trap.
Li Zhong was having some of his men inventory the items being sent out, and seeing box after box of silver, they were amazed, silently thinking they were fortunate to have received Ye Hao's intel; otherwise, this pure silver would have fallen into the hands of these illicit tomb raiders.
"Director Li, my boss says you should be more cautious; there's an expert on the other side, so maybe you should have your brothers treat this more seriously?" Flying Fish reminded Li Zhong, seeing some of the Fierce Tiger Group had become somewhat arrogant after capturing some people.
Li Zhong, hearing this, gratefully looked at Flying Fish and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Brother Flying Fish."
After speaking, Li Zhong went over to the arrogant soldiers and started reprimanding them.
...
In the underground, the Eight Great Guards felt a sense of relief seeing box after box of silver being carried away, thinking that the mission entrusted by the Alliance Leader was finally completed.
But after the people carried the silver out, fewer and fewer returned.
The lead Guardian, seeing fewer people in the underground passage, suddenly felt a sense of unease. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it at Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
