187: Chapter 187 Trading a shell for a life is definitely worthwhile! That's why we have to be crazy and apply double standards!

Barkley grit his teeth, his heart in a state of constant struggle. Although Roger was shouting those threats, who knew if it was just a bluff?

What if Roger was just trying to scare him? He had later analyzed the route Qin Yang took to enter. Although he didn't know how Qin Yang managed to wipe out the Temple of Heaven, intercept the weapon transport, and destroy the command post in one fell swoop...

That patch of jungle was simply impossible for large weapons to pass through. It would be a miracle just to get a few Heavy Machine Guns across. Therefore, Roger had to be bluffing.

Barkley grit his teeth and said, "They're lying to us! Everyone, prepare to attack!"

On Roger's side, they had been observing Barkley's movements. Barkley's actions were immediately captured, and a cold sneer appeared at the corner of Roger's mouth. As expected, he wouldn't give up until he saw his own coffin.

"Everyone, fall back! Mortars ready! Let them taste our rebirth!"

"Don't worry, General, it'll be handled perfectly. Do you want us to do another charge? The brothers have been holding back a lot of fire!"

Rayleigh said with a serious face. Honestly, if Qin Yang hadn't told them to follow along and hadn't given the order to move against Barkley, they wouldn't have been able to restrain themselves long ago!

Damn it! They had been suppressed and attacked for a full day and night. Did they really think they had good tempers?

Roger looked at the group of subordinates behind him, smiled, and said, "Good! After the bombardment ends, everyone charge! Don't save a single bullet for me! We can always get more back sooner or later!"

Rayleigh laughed, "Haha! Boss, don't you worry! Saving you money is something we'll never do! When you have to manage the logistics yourself later, you'll have quite the headache!"

Roger rubbed the bridge of his nose helplessly, because Rayleigh was right! Qin Yang would definitely provide some support!

But that was only temporary, and there was no telling what type of support it would be, so he would indeed have headaches later!

Fortunately, Qin Yang was decent enough to point him to a location! At the very least, the initial price paid was the smallest! It was just that the restrictions on expansion were quite large!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Just as Barkley's soldiers charged forward, over a hundred shells suddenly shot into the sky from behind Roger!

"Holy shit! Qin Yang, are you guys freaking toxic?!"

Barkley could no longer restrain himself. They actually had Mortars! How could this be so ridiculous? And to just hand them over to such a powerful force! What kind of incredible boldness was that!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The massive explosions literally flipped the earth over. The charging soldiers were all screaming frantically, but it couldn't change their fate of being blasted!

Furthermore, Barkley's own shells had been exhausted. Previously, in order to quickly take over Roger's position, they truly hadn't cared about the losses, but it had still been useless! Now, to keep Roger and his men there, they had launched an all-out attack!

Except for Barkley, of course! He was a man who cherished his own life! Besides, he still had tens of thousands of troops in other places. If he died here, wouldn't it be for nothing?

Four thousand people were being bathed in the explosions of the shells. The sounds of wailing and screaming were incessant. Roger showed no mercy! A hint of vengeful pleasure even flashed in his eyes!

"Fire!"

"Keep firing!"

"They aren't worth it! Wait until they're blasted until they have no combat capability before the brothers move in. My brothers are much more valuable than shells!"

Roger didn't rashly let his soldiers move forward; instead, he continued the bombardment! Qin Yang watched the surveillance screen with a smile on his face!

He was very satisfied with Roger's performance. Why did he become a mercenary and stand at the top of the world? Was it not for everything he wanted! Including everything he wanted to protect!

One could be cruel and crazy toward enemies, but who would dare touch his own people? I'm just double-standard! What can you do about it!

His subordinates were those who followed him to conquer the world, not meant to be sacrificed to fill the gap for a few pieces of trash!

Qin Yang laughed, "Qin Er! Take some men and make a trip! The shells we left before might not be enough! Send a few more truckloads to them! Remember to speed there! Get them there within half an hour!"

Qin Er said with a chuckle, "Boss! Don't worry! Mission guaranteed to be completed!"

He was also very satisfied with Roger's approach, so he gladly accepted the task!

Fifty vehicles carrying shells drove out. Of course, they weren't full; instead, to ensure speed, the shells of twenty vehicles were distributed among fifty vehicles!

Vroom!

The vehicles' engines roared as they sped out! Right now, the residents of Lota City were all still on edge!

Although Qin Yang didn't have the habit of massacring civilians for no reason, as long as one didn't touch his bottom line or his people, they would be fine!

But having such a madman mercenary over their heads, even monitoring their every move—anyone would be terrified!

On the other side, Roger said in a low voice, "Precision strikes with the shells! Gradually increase the range! Don't let them run. Aim for where the most people are and blast them!"

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In just over ten minutes, Barkley was beaten into a miserable state! He had fewer than a thousand men left with combat capability!

Right then, a vibration suddenly came from behind! Barkley looked back and immediately broke into a grin, "You're finally here!"

A tall man got out of a vehicle and hugged Barkley!

"Hahaha! You've finally arrived! Quickly help me take them down. When the time comes, we'll split the profits of this Oil Field fifty-fifty!"

Parker laughed loudly, "Don't worry! We're brothers for life! If I didn't have to bypass the territories of several Warlords to get here, I would have arrived long ago!"

"Go! Prepare the bombardment! They don't have many shells left! It's our turn!"

This time, Parker brought a full three thousand men, as well as a hundred Light Artillery pieces!

Although their lethality couldn't match Mortars, it was better than nothing! To have brought these assets after such a long-distance rush was already his limit!

Roger frowned as he looked at the enemy's additional troops. Although they weren't afraid, the time to rendezvous with Boss Qin Yang would be pushed back! What if Boss Qin Yang was dissatisfied?

Rayleigh said solemnly, "General! How about I take a team to cover the rear! You take the main force and leave first! We'll find a chance to shake them off!"

Roger replied in a low voice, "Am I the kind of person who abandons his brothers? If we leave, we leave together! Besides, I believe Boss Qin Yang won't blame us! Because he is that kind of person himself!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the last shell landed, the battlefield fell into silence. Parker was setting up his positions!

Roger's troops also stopped their withdrawal and returned to their combat positions! Their positions were well-designed to withstand bombardment, which was why they had been able to hold out for a day and night! Their fortifications were quite well-made!

At the same time, they didn't have to count their bullets for defense this time! Everyone was equipped with over a thousand rounds, as well as countless Hand Grenades!

Both sides were preparing for the upcoming major battle, each busy with their own tasks!
