Chapter 158: Surrounded

In the wee hours of the morning, Qiu Tong and Song Yan deployed their forces to surround the tube-shaped building according to the terrain map drawn up.

The violent sounds of gunfire continued for nearly half an hour. Qiu Tong and Song Yan estimated that the firepower of the hooligan gang would definitely be insufficient to resist. Just as they were about to bring the rest of the troops down to assist in the attack, one of the soldiers from the front hurried back and reported, “Sir, they ran into the mountains through the tunnels!”

Qiu Tong and Song Yan frowned. They did not expect there to be a secret underground passage!

Now that the hooligans were frightened and had fled in a panic, they definitely would not have enough weapons with them. This was the best opportunity to pursue and attack.

“We will lead a team and surround them from both sides of the mountain!”

“If we give them time to rest and adjust to the new situation, things will definitely be disadvantageous for us…”

Song Yan agreed with Qiu Tong’s suggestion and immediately assigned the men and weaponry.

Qiu Xingyu was a little afraid as she recalled the fierce battle at the villa with the refugees. She hugged Song Yan nervously. “Uncle, I’m afraid.”

“Can I come with you? You will definitely be able to protect Little Yu. Just like that day… I only trust you!”

Song Yan looked down at her with a serious expression. There was impatience in his heart, but he could not show it.

Qiu Tong would be leading a small group of elite soldiers to quickly search the mountain. It would not be suitable to bring the children along. As a result, Song Yan could only reluctantly nod in agreement.

“I want to protect my little sister. I am coming along too.”

Qiu Xingyuan said with great determination. Qiu Xingqiao nodded vigorously and added, “Wherever Little Yu is, we will be there.”

Song Yan looked at the increasing number of burdens. His gaze landed on Ye Luan.

Ye Luan took out a dagger and stood firmly beside Qiu Tong. He raised his stubborn little face and said, “I’ll follow Auntie Qiu.”

Qiu Tong saw that Song Yan had many men by his side. Even so, she felt worried. She instructed the three children, “You must follow Uncle Song Yan closely and not run around. The battlefield is very dangerous. If you encounter bad people, you have to shout loudly, understand?”

Qiu Xingyuan pursed his thin lips. He could sense Qiu Tong’s anxiety and worry. He nodded. “I will protect them.”

Qiu Tong forced a smile and stared at Song Yan. “Protect them!”

Song Yan nodded in agreement. After affirming the headcounts of the two teams, they headed into the mountains from different directions.

The path into the mountain was a little rugged. Qiu Tong held Ye Luan’s little hand and reminded him to pay attention to rocky terrain. Ye Luan followed them with difficulty, unwilling to fall behind. He said, “Auntie Qiu, you don’t have to worry about me. I won’t be a burden.”

Qiu Tong looked up worriedly at the spot where Song Yan’s team had disappeared. Suddenly, she heard a few gunshots.

Everyone instantly went on high alert and hid behind a bunker. Qiu Tong aimed her gun at the enemy in front and pulled the trigger.

Gunshots rang out repeatedly in the forest, seemingly coming from different places.

Jin Yang rushed over from S City with his subordinates. Seeing that the building was empty, he knew that someone must have launched a surprise attack.

“Bring your men to the mountains to provide support.”

“Remember to differentiate between our side and the enemy! Don’t harm our own people…”

For some reason, the image of Qiu Tong suddenly appeared in Jin Yang’s mind. He frowned worriedly and rushed into the mountains.
