Chapter 133 Rescue Operation (1/2)
Chapter 133 – Rescue Operation
3 PM.
The morale of the townsmen elevated and their attitude toward Tong Army got better.
At this moment, Bo Cai and Gao Shun returned with a thousand young women behind them. As soon as the people in the refugee camp saw that the kidnapped people had returned, they burst into cheers.
Because of the hugs that Tong made his soldier did to the people, the Ganling citizens hugged the soldiers back in delight. A dozen of husband-hunting women also took this chance to hug good looking young soldiers and touched their bodies all over.
Zhao Yun ran away from the chasing widows and old women and hid behind Tong with a frightened expression as if he was the prey and he was being hunted. Fortunately, Tong's bodyguards stopped the old cougars before Zhao Yun was violated.
A messenger from Zhang Liao also arrived.
”Reporting, Lord Zhang Liao has surrounded the village as instructed. Upon the initial observation, the bandits are staying in that village with a few hundreds of kidnapped young women. Lord Zhang Liao sent me here to ask for your advice. Should we assault the village right away or what should we do?”
Hearing that there were still many hostages in the hands of the bandits, Zhao Yun frowned in anger. He turned around to look at Tong, who was rechecking his radar map once again.
”My Lord?” The messenger was waiting for Tong's instruction.
”How many bandits in the village again?”
”Umm. Roughly a thousand or two.”
Tong glanced at the messenger and smirked.
”FBI tactic. You know the drill.”
”Eh…? Ah! Understood, my lord!”
Zhao Yun glared at Tong. There were still kidnapped people inside the village. If they used the tactic again, the hostages might die.
Seeing the dissatisfaction face of Zhao Yun, Tong laughed.
”I think it's time to show you what we, the immortal, can do. Feihong, gate please.”
Li Feihong, who was idle for all these times, tilted his head in puzzlement.
”Where to?”
”The village that we're attacking. Let's try our practiced assassin-gate tactic. While we are at it, we will rescue the girls from the village. And, let's take Zhao Tian with us, too.”
”Huh? OK.”
…
3.50 PM
Tong, Li Feihong, and Zhao Yun were gazing at the monitors in the private world.
Li Feihong managed to gate travel to the side of the village without noticing Zhang Liao or alerting Zhang Yan. Tong ordered him to do so as he was cautious of the mysterious otherworlder.
As long as they were inside this private world, they could see the situation outside and could determine where or how to act based on the changing events.
Hundreds of the monitors were broadcasting the interiors of the buildings inside the target village as if they were the record screens from CCTV cameras.
With Li Feihong's sorting and monitor arrangement, they managed to locate the hostages inside a new wooden building.
The young girl hostages were the best looking girls in the Ganling City. All of their clothes were stripped away, revealing their white skins. Traces of the sexual abuse could be seen which made Tong and Li Feihong felt nauseous.
”Are we late?” Li Feihong asked Tong.
”No. They are still alive. We're not too late yet.”
”But… Their mind was pretty much broken. I doubt they can continue their normal life with this trauma.”
”Let's worry about this later. We'll save them first.”
”Right.”
Tong turned around to look at Zhao Yun.
At first, Zhao Yun was awestruck by the environment, unknown magic, monitors, and their identities as immortals. He came back to his sense after he saw the status of the violated townswomen inside the bandit village. He forgot about his embarrassment and shame as his level of anger went through the roof.
Tong tapped Zhao Yun's shoulder to calm him down.
”The bandits will get what they deserve. For now, cool your head. I and Feihong will rescue them, so you can relax.”
Zhao Yun looked back at Tong. He knelt down and cupped his fist.
”Please allow me to fight alongside with you! I want to kill these scoundrels myself!”
Tong shook his head. ”No. You stay here.”
”But sir! I can fight!”
Tong still shook his head. ”Yes, you can fight. To be honest, you're probably stronger than me. But I still can't let you join the battle.”
”Then why?”
Zhao Yun stared into the eyes of Tong in dissatisfaction. He wanted to protest. At the same time, he wanted to leave Tong's army to fight the bandits by himself.
”Do you want my honest opinion or do you want my white lie?” Tong asked.
”Honest opinion, please.”
”You are not qualified to fight alongside with my soldiers in this battlefield.”
”What!?”
Zhao Yun stood up as he flared up from Tong's provocation. On the other hand, Tong gazed at Zhao Yun in a pity.
'He's still too young and too immature. There's a long road ahead of him before he can become the ”Zhao Zilong” of the legend. The legendary Zhao Yun wouldn't get provoked from this slight criticism.'
”Then return me back to my city. I can fight alone without your help!”
