Chapter: 3346

"This rotten wood is actually prepared for those elderly bachelors or childless poor households," Lu Hao Tian said.

"Ah, that's great." Wan Baojun nodded in satisfaction, saying, "On the eve of Qingming Festival, bring enough people and send these coffins to Ye's family! If they're willing to voluntarily hand over Ye Ling Shan, Ye Chang Ning, and all the ancestral coffins of the Ye family to prepare a place for my parents' coffin and receive them with proper funeral attire, I'll spare their lives. But if they're not willing... these coffins will be a gift from me to them!"

Lu Hao Tian secretly took aback, unable to help but ask, "Lord Wan, would Ye's family accept the humiliation of voluntarily exhuming their ancestors' coffins and mourning for your parents?"

Wan Baojun's face remained expressionless as he said, "If they accept it, I'll spare their lives; if not, these coffins will be a gift from me to them!"

"Lu Hao Tian asked him, 'Lord Wan, if Ye's family accepts your conditions, what will you do to Ye Chang Ning? He has been dead for so many years.'"

Wan Baojun spoke in a cold tone, "Ye Chang Ning's fate is already decided. After my parents are buried at Ye Ling Shan, I will personally crush his bones and scatter them before my parents' tomb! Let my parents' spirits in heaven see that I have finally avenged the ancient grudge!'"

Just then, one of Wan Baojun's attendants came running over with a satellite phone, saying, "Lord Wan! The Qingmu Wolf King is calling! He says he has something important to report!"

Wan Baojun furrowed his brow and spoke sternly, "He had better have some good news to tell me!"

As soon as the phone was connected, Wan Baojun asked Chen Zhonglei directly, "Do you have any good news to report?"

Chen Zhonglei spoke with trepidation, "Lord Wan... today Hamid sent someone to act as a mediator and express his willingness to negotiate..."

"Negotiate?" Wan Baojun's anger flared up immediately, "He and his soldiers must take responsibility for the 2,500 plus officers who sacrificed themselves for me, the Wanyi Hall. I will not accept any other outcome except for their complete annihilation!"

Chen Zhonglei gathered courage to say, "Lord Wan, our current problem is that we cannot possibly defeat Hamid. The only way is to die defending this place. It's really not worth it! Our daily economic losses are extremely severe...'"

"Only if you surround them thoroughly, without leaving any chance for escape, they will eventually become chaotic even if they don't. It's impossible to maintain a long-term battle with this group of Middle Eastern mercenaries."

Chen Zhonglei's eyes widened in distress as he said, "Lord Wan... but the key issue is that Hamid has already stockpiled an enormous amount of strategic resources. I'm not daring to say more about it. With their current resource levels, 10,000 people can sustain themselves for a whole year without any problem. But we can't keep up with them for a whole year here, and the government army is also preparing to disengage..."

As he spoke, Chen Zhonglei briefed Wan Baojun on his current situation in detail.

Wan Baojun's face turned red with anger when he heard this.

He almost shouted at the top of his lungs, "Chen Zhonglei! I've never suffered such a huge loss and lost so many people in my entire life. And now you're getting me stuck in such a passive situation! You really broke several records!"

At this moment, Chen Zhonglei was also filled with regret, speaking in pain, "Lord Wan, I admit that I underestimated the enemy earlier. Who would have thought we'd run into someone like Hamid in Syria? I'm willing to accept any punishment from you. But now the key issue is that Hamid has surrounded himself with a strong defense and prepared a large amount of food supplies. We're stuck between a rock and a hard place, with 15,000 people here!"

"If the government army withdraws, leaving only our people here surrounding Hamid, it would be even more awkward. The government army will only pay off the mercenaries they hired. When we arrive, not only will we suffer defeat, but we'll also go against their intentions. They might turn against us and we'll have nothing to show for it..."

Wan Baojun was so angry he wanted to personally lead a force to Syria and slaughter Hamid into pieces because he knew that if Hamid were dead, his army would be completely crushed, and all the problems could be solved.

But looking at the piles of cheap coffins in front of him, his heart also warned himself not to get distracted at this critical moment.

In his mind, he thought to himself: "I may have a strong feeling that I can quietly eliminate Hamid, but now time is really too pressing! Even if I set out from Hua Xia to Syria today, it would take at least 30 hours for the round-trip journey just to get here..."

"If something unforeseen happens and I get delayed, I won't be able to personally go to Lingshan Mountain by Qingming. Think carefully about this, Wan Baogun bit his lips and said: 'Alright then, don't get too worked up with the government army just yet. They want to negotiate with Hamid, so you can also participate in the specific details of their negotiations and try to delay their progress. If the government army has already made a firm decision, you have to immediately express your refusal to compromise, allowing our soldiers to continue guarding there until I'm done with my important business then.'"

Chen Zhonglei could only agree and said: "I'll go meet with Hamid's people in the afternoon and see what attitude they're taking."

"Good." Wan Baogun emphasized: "No matter what, make sure to stall both Hamid and the government army, and under no circumstances let them privately reach an agreement. If the government army is about to withdraw, you tell them that I, Wan Baogun, guarantee with my personal reputation that I will resolve Hamid by the end of April, regardless of how many strategic reserves he has. My abilities are well-known to them." JrNovels.com
