Chapter 51 Shot
The main hall of the Yang residence.
"Second Brother, you'll have to guard the Yang residence from now on."
"Your father led reinforcements back from Meijiang by boat, but they were ambushed by the Divine Talisman Society on the way. I'm leading men to provide support now."
"Zheng Bo has already gone there to provide assistance."
"After we leave, the Yang family will be in your hands!"
Upon seeing Yang Jian approach, Yang Changhui adjusted the holster at his waist while speaking.
He looked somewhat anxious.
Yang Changhui did not expect that the Divine Talisman Society had been so quiet these past two days, actually to lull them into a false sense of security, and that their real purpose was to bring in reinforcements from Yunnan.
Several martial arts masters suddenly appeared within the Divine Talisman Society, along with a massive aquatic beast, who launched a sneak attack on the Yunnan reinforcements arriving by boat.
The two sides are fighting on the river, and the outcome is still pending.
To avoid exposing the cult experts who had come to support them, the Divine Symbol Society had not taken any action in the main city area and had been keeping a very low profile.
It was thanks to the Yang family's strong intelligence network that they noticed the anomaly and discovered the problem on the Meijiang River in time; otherwise, they would have remained complacent under the influence of the Shenfu Society people near the Meijiang Wharf.
Yang Changhui knew very well that under these circumstances, he had to lead his men to provide support.
Otherwise, if the reinforcements from Yunnan are defeated by the Divine Talisman Society, Yongkang County will also suffer. He understands the principle of mutual dependence.
Without reinforcements, Yongkang County cannot withstand the formidable fighting power now displayed by the Divine Talisman Society.
After learning that Yang Changhong and the others were trapped, Zheng Bo immediately agreed to Yang Changhui's request and left the Yang residence on the spot.
Clearly, in Zheng Bo's mind, Yang Changhong's safety was more important.
"Okay, Fifth Uncle, please be careful on the road."
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian readily agreed.
He had always wondered why the Divine Symbol Society hadn't made any moves, but now it seemed that the Divine Symbol Society wasn't inactive; rather, they had been secretly preparing for something big.
Although Yang Jian also wanted to go and provide support, he knew that someone also needed to guard the Yang residence.
If Yang Changhui leads his men to provide support, then he must stay and guard the Yang residence.
With Zheng Bo not stationed at the mansion, the Yang family's defensive capabilities are greatly reduced, making it even more crucial for him to remain.
"Okay, I'm leaving!"
"The Yang family estate is now in your hands!"
After Yang Changhui patted Yang Jian on the shoulder with a solemn expression, he left immediately!
Police officers followed.
Those forces in the city that had previously supported the Yang family sent some people over.
It was obvious that Yang Changhui had made arrangements in advance. Earlier in the hall, besides waiting for Yang Jian to arrive, he was also waiting for these people.
Now that everyone was present, Yang Changhui decisively led his men off.
As Yang Jian watched the support team depart in a grand procession, he knew in his heart that the outcome of this battle would affect the entire Yongkang County.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
These people hadn't gone far when gunshots suddenly rang out.
"Enemy attack! The Divine Symbol Society is lying in ambush on the road."
"The inspector general has been shot. Come and cover him."
"Alert! Take cover!"
The support team hadn't gone far when they were ambushed.
Yang Changhui, as the chief inspector of the inspection office, became the primary target.
"Second Young Master, Fifth Master has been shot!"
"People are trapped in Jingyuan Restaurant."
Not long after, one of the men who had been following Yang Changhui returned to report on the situation.
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian first instructed the head guard Yang Mingche and others to guard all the gates of the Yang residence and prevent any strangers from approaching. Then, he put on the breastplate that he had specially made and led a few men to provide support with their guns.
He had some healing medicine on him, which might be useful to his fifth uncle, Yang Changhui.
No one expected the Divine Talisman Society to be so cunning, launching a sneak attack at such a critical moment.
The gunfire grew louder and the fighting became increasingly intense.
Yang Jian led his men forward, using cover as cover, proceeding cautiously and vigilantly.
Bullets don't have eyes.
"These cult bastards, raised by dogs, actually launched a sneak attack! If I hadn't reacted quickly, they would have killed me!"
As Yang Jian approached a scenic restaurant on the street, the battlefield had already advanced.
Hearing Yang Changhui's angry curses, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Changhui still had the energy to curse, so he probably didn't suffer any fatal injuries.
"Knock knock knock!"
"Fifth Uncle, it's me, Yang Jian."
Yang Jian did not open the door directly, but knocked first to identify himself.
He knew that everyone inside must be on edge at this moment, and their guns were likely pointed at the door.
"Second Brother, didn't I tell you to stay and guard the Yang residence? Why did you come here!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Changhui gestured to the people guarding both sides of the door.
At this time, someone was helping him bandage his right leg to stop the bleeding. His angry cursing was also a way to cover up the immense pain caused by the bandaging.
Hearing the sound, Yang Jian pushed open the door and went in, only to see Yang Changhui lying on the ground, his face pale.
Someone nearby helped bandage and stop the bleeding, but a lot of bright red blood was still flowing out, clearly indicating that a major artery had been injured!
"I heard you were in trouble, Fifth Uncle, so I brought some people over!"
"This is hemostatic powder. Apply it and then bandage it."
"Fifth Uncle, this is a complete tonic pill. Take it first; it will have a certain healing effect."
Yang Jian strode over and took out two medicine bottles from his pocket.
The hemostatic powder was given to the person bandaging the wound, while the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pill was fed directly into Yang Changhui's mouth.
"I was careless today, I rushed over and got ambushed by these dog-food-loving bastards!"
"Otherwise, according to my usual practice, I wouldn't give them this chance."
Yang Changhui felt somewhat annoyed after taking the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pill.
The Divine Talisman Society hadn't made any moves in the past two days, and his men were on guard as they passed through this road, so he didn't suspect anything was wrong with the road and wasn't very vigilant, which is why they were ambushed!
"Cult members are cunning and have no moral bottom line."
As Yang Jian spoke, he helped stop the bleeding from the side.
After applying hemostatic powder and bandaging the wound, the effect was significant; the bleeding on Yang Changhui's right leg stopped. However, his face remained pale, a result of the excessive bleeding he had previously experienced.
"Fifth Uncle, you can't do strenuous activities right now. You need to go back to your residence first."
"Without you in charge, things are likely to get messy."
Seeing Yang Changhui's expression, Yang Jian spoke tactfully.
Yang Changhui has lost too much blood. If he continues to engage in strenuous activity, he will likely suffer a hemorrhage soon, at which point even a miracle will be impossible to save him.
While the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pill does have some healing effects, they are not very significant.
"Sigh, I was supposed to go and support your father, but I never expected it to turn out like this."
"These cult members are so cunning!"
Yang Changhui was also aware of his own situation; even leaving was a problem for him now, let alone going to the sea to provide support.
Those cultists likely anticipated his situation and therefore deliberately laid out a plan to target him. He even suspected that the timely receipt of news from the Meijiang River was intentionally orchestrated by the Divine Talisman Society, who wanted to take advantage of the situation to eliminate him.
Last time, it was Yang Changhui who personally led people to drive the Divine Talisman Society out of the main city, causing them to suffer such a great loss, which is why they are targeting them like this.
Yang the Fifth Master, with his positions as the Chief Inspector of the Inspectorate, commanded a large following in Yongkang County, and those who came to his aid obeyed his orders.
When two armies clash, the quickest way to end the battle is to decapitate the enemy's commander. If successful, the effect is extremely significant.
