Chapter 1816: Chapter 1817: Arrival of the Fighter Support Team

"We were sent by Commander Liao to pick you up. He is still down south and hasn’t come over yet," the man said respectfully.

Rolaff nodded and said, "Alright, let’s go."

"Since you’ve found your team, our mission is complete. Goodbye," someone stepped forward to say.

Rolaff frowned and asked, "You want to leave?"

The rebels caught onto their leader’s tone and immediately raised their guns, surrounding the members of the Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps.

The Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps members were also on guard with their guns. Although they were outnumbered, they didn’t panic.

The squad leader coldly looked at Rolaff and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"Since you’ve come to my territory, how could I not treat you to a meal? How would I explain myself to Xiang Yu?" Rolaff replied.

"No need to be polite, we have matters to attend to and will leave now," the squad leader responded bluntly.

"You’re not giving me face?" Rolaff sneered.

The surrounding rebels immediately unlocked their guns. They didn’t know the identity of these people, but Rolaff’s tone clearly suggested they were not allies.

"We’re all sensible people. No need to beat around the bush. Are you letting us go or not," the squad leader asked resolutely, holding his gun.

Rolaff hadn’t expected this small squad to be so tough. He wasn’t planning to let them leave.

After all, these people were Xiang Yu’s men, and escorting him here meant they knew his whereabouts.

If he let them go now, his whereabouts would be exposed.

But seeing their stance, if he didn’t let them go now, they might fight to the death with him.

After a moment of hesitation, Rolaff laughed and said, "Alright, since you don’t want to stay for a meal, go on back. Tell Xiang Yu I owe him one."

"I will relay the message," the squad leader said, then turned and left with his men.

"Chief, should we take them out?" someone beside Rolaff whispered.

Rolaff shook his head and said, "These people are not simple. We might need them someday."

After standing there for a while, Rolaff left.

Xiang Yu was chatting idly with Tie Zhuzi in the room when Xiaochuan’s call came in.

"Bro, the brothers have safely delivered Rolaff and are on their way back," Xiaochuan reported succinctly.

"Got it. Tell the brothers to be careful and return quickly," Xiang Yu instructed.

The situation in Xiaoba was chaotic. Any moment now, another group might engage his men in battle.

"Understood, bro." Xiaochuan thought for a moment and said, "The Menghu Mercenary Corps is preparing to retreat now."

"They want to retreat?" Xiang Yu asked in confusion.

"Probably worried about the Xiaoba military’s return," Xiaochuan explained plainly.

"Does the Xiaoba military show any movements?" Xiang Yu asked suspiciously.

"Their people are reorganizing, with no signs of planning another wave of attacks," Xiaochuan replied.

"Tell Wu Jing not to let Xia Cheng’s men leave. If the Xiaoba military doesn’t act, you make a move," Xiang Yu ordered.

"Yes," Xiaochuan resolutely confirmed.

After hanging up, Xiaochuan relayed the order to Wu Jing. Wu Jing, seeing that the Xiaoba military appeared crippled and not intending another attack, looked at his men and said, "Everyone, be ready. If they dare come out of the base, we will push them back."

The Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps members were excited. Watching others fight earlier had made them itch for action.

"Captain, let’s charge now."

"Yeah, let’s hit their base now. I want to see how fortified it really is."

The Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps members were at ease, seeing dying on the battlefield as an honor.

"No fooling around, follow my command," Wu Jing said sternly.

This was the battlefield, not regular training. He wouldn’t joke with his men’s lives.

Seeing Wu Jing so serious, people around him shut their mouths.

"Look, they’re out."

At that moment, someone shouted, and everyone looked ahead to see the Menghu Mercenary Corps fully armed, coming out of the base.

They were well-equipped, with some scouting ahead and the main force behind.

Clearly, the Menghu Mercenary Corps was professionally trained, moving with discipline. Even if ambushed, they were prepared.

"Everyone, ready," Wu Jing ordered.

At this critical moment, everyone remained silent and chambered their rounds, prepared for tough combat.

The Menghu Mercenary Corps were trained fighters, but so were they.

Wu Jing would drag them to train whenever they weren’t on a mission. Their motto was: Train more in peacetime, bleed less on the battlefield.

"Ready," Wu Jing said, also chambering his rounds.

"Wait," Xiaochuan suddenly said.

Wu Jing turned his head in confusion, not knowing what this kid was up to.

"This time, we won’t have to make a move," Xiaochuan said coldly.

The surrounding people looked at him, puzzled.

"Look over there."

Someone shouted, and everyone looked into the distance to see a large, dark mass flying toward them in the sky.

Wu Jing was also startled, grateful for not acting hastily. Otherwise, they would have suffered greatly. The Xiaoba air support had arrived.

"Everyone, retreat to the hill behind," Wu Jing quickly ordered.

Seeing the large formation of bombers, Wu Jing feared they might become collateral damage.

The Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps wasted no time, quickly retreating.

Meanwhile, the Xiaoba military in the distance cheered, seeing their air support arrive.

"Great, this time we’ll definitely crush those rebels," one said to the Commander.

The Commander’s face was ashen. While others were elated, he feared losing his position after this battle.

"Chief, should we attack now?" someone suggested.

"Yeah, let’s hit back."

Some wounded soldiers stood, ashamed from the earlier fight, now eager for redemption.

"Are you brainless? If we charge, we’ll become bombing targets. Morons," the Commander snapped.

The air force had already received bombing coordinates and began dropping bombs without hesitation.

Xia Cheng and his team panicked at the sight of the fighters.

"Retreat quickly, get into the bunkers," Xia Cheng shouted, his voice altered in panic. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

His command was redundant, as everyone, seeing the planes, ran to the rear.

Lacking experience against planes, they were momentarily disoriented...
