The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord

The looting on the dining car continued, and the chaotic scene was terrifying.

Zhang Ye stood there calmly, his sharp eyes sweeping around like an eagle, taking in the surrounding environment.

He tilted his head slightly and whispered to the guards in front of him in a low voice, "Don't worry about my safety, just find a way to get rid of these guys."

However, Lu Shan, one of the guards, had a worried look on his face. He narrowed his eyes, looked around cautiously, and then approached Zhang Ye and said, "Marshal, the situation is unclear right now. We don't know if there are any accomplices of these robbers in other carriages. In my opinion, it's best for us to retreat for now."

As he spoke, he reached out to pull the door of the car on the opposite aisle, intending to quickly move everyone to another location.

After all, as long as they can leave this dining car smoothly and ensure Zhang Ye's personal safety, then dealing with these few petty thieves will be a piece of cake.

Just as Zhang Ye and the others were about to take a step forward, a furious shout suddenly rang out: "Hey, all of you, stop right there! Don't think I'm blind and can't see your little tricks!"

The burly man rushed through the crowded crowd like a gust of wind and reached the rear of the dining car in the blink of an eye.

He had a fierce look on his face, a black pistol tightly gripped in his hand, pointing it straight at Zhang Ye and the others, and shouted loudly: "I've been keeping an eye on you! Look at how sneaky you all are. You came out of the box, right? Humph, if you want to live, hand over the money honestly! Otherwise, don't blame my bullets for not having eyes!"

"Hehe..." Lu Shan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, chuckled, and then slowly squeezed out of the crowd.

He had a calm smile on his face, as if everything was under control.

Then, he casually reached into his pocket and fumbled around, and soon pulled out a handful of silver dollars.

Lu Shan still had that calm smile on his face. He slowly walked up to the burly man, gently handed the silver dollar in his hand forward, and said politely, "Brother, it's freezing cold out here, and it's really not easy for you and your brothers to be out here. This little money is just like treating you all to a cup of hot tea to warm yourselves."

The sturdy man was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of satisfaction, but when he looked down and saw the number of silver dollars Lu Shan handed over, his face instantly became gloomy.

He frowned tightly, his eyes wide open, and shouted at Lu Shan, "Humph, how much can this little thing be worth? You guys are all dressed up like decent people, why are you so stingy? Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"

As he spoke, he took another big step forward and pressed the black muzzle of the gun directly against Lu Shan's forehead. He kept cursing and slapped Lu Shan's cheek with his other hand, urging him viciously: "Hurry up! Hand over everything valuable on you to me immediately. If you hesitate for even a moment, I will shoot you in the head!"

Seeing this, the originally noisy crowd around suddenly quieted down. Everyone held their breath and watched nervously at the thrilling scene before them.

Lu Shan, however, remained calm and composed. He simply looked at the burly man calmly and replied calmly, "Brother, please don't worry. Everyone has inconveniences when traveling, and I really don't have much money on me. How about this, I'll prepare a generous gift for you another day?"

However, the sturdy man didn't buy it at all. He sneered and said disdainfully, "Don't waste your words on me! If you don't hand over the money today, don't even think about leaving here! Here, I am the king. Even if you are a high-ranking official, you have to listen to me and honestly lie down on the ground and beg for mercy!"

"Yes, yes, big brother, you are absolutely right!" Lu Shan's face was full of flattering smiles. He nodded repeatedly in agreement and slowly put his hand into his arms. The movement was so slow, as if there was a treasure hidden in his arms.

As he was taking things out, he kept mumbling, "We're just doing a small business, we don't make much money. Look, I was in a hurry to go out today, so I really don't have much cash on me. But since you guys are a little tight on money right now and need money for an emergency, I definitely can't be stingy. I'll give this money to you guys first!"

As soon as Lu Shan said this, the burly man standing in front of him suddenly brightened up his eyes, his originally tense face immediately relaxed, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a smug smile.

Hey, this kid is such a sensible guy!

Compared with those women who get scared to death and cry for help when something happens, they are like heaven and earth.

Look at his attitude, so tactful!

If they always meet such easy-to-deal-with guys, it would be hard for them not to make a fortune!

Thinking of this, the strong man couldn't help but feel happy, and he felt more favorable towards the well-behaved and obedient Lu Shan in front of him.

"Brother, what do you think of this thing? It's awesome!" Lu Shan said as he winked at the burly man next to him and carefully took out an object from his arms.

Only a piece of shiny silver-white metal was revealed, flashing a faint but dazzling light in the dim train compartment.

At this time, the train was running on a section of track with poor conditions. The body of the train was shaking slightly with the bumps, and the lights in the carriage seemed a little dim.

The sturdy man widened his eyes and stared at the thing in Lu Shan's hand. When he finally saw the silver light clearly, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He thought he had hit the jackpot and found a high-purity silver ingot!

Thinking of this, the corners of the strong man's mouth rose involuntarily and he couldn't stop smiling.

"Hurry, hurry, take it out and let me take a good look!" The strong man urged impatiently, his greedy eyes staring at the so-called "silver ingot".

"Okay, just wait for your eyes to be opened!" Lu Shan agreed readily, with a barely noticeable sly smile on his face.

He slowly stretched out his right hand and grasped the gun handle, and then, while the sturdy man was concentrating on the wealth that was about to be obtained, he suddenly raised his left hand as fast as lightning, accurately grasped the sturdy man's wrist, and twisted it hard, causing the muzzle of the gun that the sturdy man originally held on Lu Shan's forehead to deviate from the direction.

In the blink of an eye, the silver gun body was completely revealed.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Shan completed a quick flip at an astonishing speed. The gun was like a flexible poisonous snake, and instantly hit the strong man's forehead.

"You...you fucking..." At this moment, the sturdy man's eyes widened, his eyeballs almost popped out of his eye sockets, and they were as big as copper bells.

His face was full of astonishment and fear, his mouth slightly open, but he was too shocked to utter a complete sentence.

He could never have imagined that the boy standing in front of him who was always laughing and looked harmless could actually be a top master who was hiding his true strength!

In the brief fight just now, the skills and speed displayed by this kid were completely beyond his imagination.
