Chapter 1145
Immediately afterwards, a series of muffled cannon shots rang out, one after another, causing the steel and the corridor to tremble slightly.
He Chengshi's heart clenched suddenly.
That's Lao Yao's boat!
Lao Yao was on standby in the nearby waters with two large cruise ships. Upon hearing the signal, he immediately rushed to provide support.
His original plan was to launch a pincer attack from both sides, annihilating the main force of the fleet, and then the remaining civilians would be no threat.
He had just been secretly hoping that Lao Yao might be able to lead his men in and rescue him!
But now...
The distant flames grew brighter, while the sound of cannons gradually thinned out...
"Don't waste your time." Lieutenant Yun seemed to see through his thoughts and said coldly, "Captain Chen had long anticipated that you had outside help and had laid an ambush in advance on the outskirts of the sea. Your so-called support is probably already prisoners of war."
He Chengshi lowered his eyes, concealing the resentment within them.
Upon reaching the first floor, the sounds of noise from the shallows grew clearer.
The lobby on the first floor was crowded with captured subordinates, the same three groups of men who had split into three groups earlier.
The burly man, his hands tied behind his back, was filled with resentment and anger, and he kept shouting, "Let me go! You cheated! If you have the guts, let's fight fair and square!"
Blood was seeping from his forehead, clearly indicating that he had resisted arrest.
But the soldiers around him just stared at him coldly, their guns always pointed at him, ready to shoot if he dared to move.
The group of men brought by the burly man were mostly dressed in rags, some even with injuries. They leaned against the wall dejectedly, no longer showing the arrogance they had displayed when they blew up the emergency power supply box.
They couldn't understand why so many soldiers suddenly rushed out and surrounded them, even though they had successfully cut off the power.
The soldiers seemed to have been lying in ambush around the power plant all along, just waiting for them to walk right into their trap.
The tall, thin man appeared somewhat timid; he huddled in a corner, his face pale, his eyes darting around, not daring to look at the soldiers around him.
"Boss! Boss!" Someone saw He Chengshi being brought in and immediately struggled excitedly, but was held down by the soldiers.
He Chengshi closed his eyes, unwilling to look at his subordinates any longer.
He knew it was all over.
Just then, the two abandoned ships were also surrounded by troops dispatched by Captain Chen.
Most of the people on this list are He Chengshi and his men's families, children, and other survivors.
Captain Chen did not appear at the fortress because the people on those two ships were the most difficult to deal with.
He needs to be present throughout the entire process!
He Chengshi and his group totaled more than 400 people who came to surrender. He dispatched 100 young men to attack the fortress, while the remaining 300 men stayed on the ship. After Lao Yao's ships joined them, they all picked up guns and weapons and attacked the fortress together.
Therefore, there were weapons on the abandoned ship.
When the sound of gunfire came from the fortress, those left on the ship knew something was wrong.
They immediately distributed weapons and took up positions in various hidden corners of the ship, waiting for the order to launch an attack.
Having followed He Chengshi for so many years, they had come to have complete trust in any decision their leader made!
He said he would take them to a place where the sea boiling crisis could be resolved, and sure enough, there was a mid-air fortress on this island!
It can keep you away from the boiling sea and scorching air!
There's also plenty of food and weapons here!
No matter how you look at it, it seems like it was specially prepared for them by God!
But at this moment, when they lay on the ship's side and saw He Chengshi being dragged into the fortress by soldiers like a dead dog, and when they saw the young men who had rushed out being brought back one by one, their faces covered in blood and grime, the people on the ship completely erupted in anger.
The cries of women and the roars of men mingled together, and the once peaceful abandoned ship was instantly enveloped in despair and rage.
