CHAPTER 1756 FURY
Jiang Ning then turned to look at Li Genhong.
"Nobody has discovered that mine yet, right?"
"Not at the moment. I've arranged for trustworthy men to watch over it." Li Genhong paused for a moment. "In fact, they don't know what's in that piece of land either."
He had been extra careful because he didn't want anything to go wrong.
That mine was incredibly important to Jiang Ning, and their greatest mission right now was to protect that mine.
He couldn't afford any mistakes at all.
If someone found out about this mine, he would be in big trouble.
Jiang Ning looked at Li Genhong and burst out laughing. "You're a pretty smart one.”
"We've won today, but this is only the beginning. That Halen managed to escape, so I'm sure they'll come back again."
He looked at the father and son before him. “So what we need to do now is to prepare for another victorious battle and completely annihilate the Purple Moon Mercenary Army!"
Li Zhengshang and Li Genhong shuddered.
Completely annihilate the Purple Moon Mercenary Army?
Jiang Ning was nuts!
They had won today because the wolves had launched an attack first and had to deliberately leave them with a few soldiers to kill.
But the lieutenant had a lot of men who were well trained and armed as well, while they only had fewer than 100 men. How were they supposed to fight at this rate?
"Mr Jiang, we might have to take some time to plan this attack a little more carefully!" Li Zhengshang couldn't help but say this after some hesitation.
This wasn't a joke.
This was taking a gamble on everyone's lives!
"Mr Li, this isn't up to us you know?" Jiang Ning laughed. "You've killed off half his territory and you think he'll let it go?"
Li Zhengshang froze.
Of course the lieutenant wasn't going to let him off. If Li Zhengshang was in his shoes, he wouldn't either.
But he heard that this lieutenant was a cruel and extremely powerful man with many well trained soldiers. So even with the wolves around, that would only add on another 20 or 30 men to his current army. They would lose in terms of the number of men they had as well as the weapons they had.
"Mr Li, if I were you, I wouldn't be wasting any time now," said Jiang Ning calmly. "You'd better quickly gather more soldiers, dig some trenches, fortify your camp and get some weapons and explosives ready.
All these things need time to prepare, you know."
"And your enemies aren't going to give you a lot of time."
Li Zhengshang took a deep breath and he could already feel the pressure.
They didn't have time at all.
"Genhong! Hurry up and get all these things settled!"
Both father and son ran off to get prepared.
Jiang Ning smiled faintly and he still looked as relaxed as ever.
"Is it finally going to start? I can finally have some fun."
Meanwhile.
Back at Purple Moon Mercenary Army's main campsite!
Halen had barely managed to escape. His body was covered in dirt and his face had blood all over it. If he hadn't run fast enough and used many other men to protect himself, there was no way he could be standing here right now.
"Lieutenant, I have let you down!"
Halen fell to his knees with a thud and kowtowed profusely.
Blood soon trickled down his forehead but he continued to kowtow. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
The lieutenant didn't say anything as he placed both arms on his chair's armrest. His expression seemed to be frozen and he didn't look very affected at all.
But those who knew the lieutenant knew that he was the scariest when he behaved like this.
"How many men are left?" the lieutenant finally broke his silence after a long time, and his voice trembled slightly.
Besides me...nobody else..."
Halen's throat went dry.
The Li family's army seemed to have all gone mad and attacked them like their lives didn't matter. It was as if they were determined to tear a piece of flesh from them even if they ended up dying.
BANG!
Just after Halen finished his sentence, there was a loud bang and he fell backwards onto the floor. His widened eyes still carried a tinge of indignation...
