Chapter 1382 - 1382: Power Disproportion

Du Qingyue took out a notebook from the drawer beneath the coffee table and started writing in it.

The content was the manpower deployment of the Devil's Concentration Camp...

To deal with the Du family: two instructors, twenty elites.

To deal with Wang Lubo's company: two instructors, ten elites.

To deal with the Chang family: one instructor, ten elites.

To deal with Jinyue Garden: one instructor, ten elites.

Total: six instructors, fifty elites.

After writing this, Du Qingyue drew a horizontal line to separate the content above, then continued writing.

The content consisted of individual names, including everyone present, as well as Lao Ha, Aspergillus oryzae, Lv Ziming, Lone Wolf, and Iron Doll.

Hui Yi and the others were summarized as "eighteen martial monks."

After all, writing out from Hui Yi to Hui Shiba in full detail was really unnecessary.

And in total, even counting Sun Shijie and Zhao Guo'an, the two non-combat personnel, it was still only thirty-one people.

Compared to the Devil's Concentration Camp, they were short by a full twenty-five people.

"Take a look." Du Qingyue pushed the notebook in front of Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng glanced at it briefly, then looked away with a smile, saying, "This is only a representation of power on paper. It doesn't really indicate any issue.

If we're short on manpower, we'll make up for it with equipment!"

Xue Nuofu couldn't help but laugh and said, "According to that, if you could get approval for four tanks and just park them at the gate, the sheer fright would be enough to scare the Devil's Concentration Camp to death!"

"You're not helping but only causing trouble, undermining morale like a three-timing house slave. Just keep your mouth shut, okay?" Xiao Feng retorted irritably. "Who says equipment has to be machine guns and cannons?"

Lu Yao asked with confusion, "Brother Yanhuang, then what do you mean by equipment?"

Xiao Feng smiled and said, "Have you forgotten about those strange inventions that Neng Ren made before?"

Everyone was momentarily stunned, and an image of arrows shooting from behind Neng Ren came to mind in unison...

Even though they knew it wasn't really coming from his behind, the visual effect was indeed eye-catching!

Xiao Feng said with a serious expression, "If we fight head-on this time, we're not necessarily at a disadvantage.

But, when manpower must be dispersed, the key issue is how to preserve ourselves while eliminating the opponent as much as possible.

Actually, in my opinion, this is much easier to tackle than a forceful, all-out assault."

There was a brief silence as Xue Nuofu spoke, "But the problem is, not everyone is like you.

Even if a genius makes a plan, if executed by fools, it won't achieve the desired effect."

"Who are you calling a fool?" Xiao Feng retorted.

Xue Nuofu's face darkened, "I'm just discussing the matter, not targeting anyone."

That's what he said, but he couldn't help but mutter inwardly.

Is this really the right time to dig pits and sow discord?

Xiao Feng chuckled and stood up, saying, "Sitting here discussing won't lead to any results. Talking more is less effective than doing it ourselves.

As long as you dare to think and act, winning with fewer and weaker forces isn't as hard as it seems."

After speaking, he turned and walked towards the yard.

In the living room, everyone looked at each other, feeling unsure of what to say.

The only exception was a little girl holding a doll and munching on sunflower seeds.

...

After leaving his own villa, Xiao Feng headed straight for the basement of the villa where Lao Ha and others were staying.

As soon as he opened the door, the intense sounds of gunfire, helicopter rotors, roars, and cries bombarded his ears at once.

It was naturally the projector still playing a movie.

Walking down a few steps, Xiao Feng saw Shao Baxing sitting on the lower bunk and couldn't help but gasp!

"Hiss..." Xiao Feng said in surprise, "Old Shao, at your age, you should take care of yourself!"

No wonder Xiao Feng was so amazed, Shao Baxing's appearance had changed drastically.

Thinner body, sunken eye sockets, dark circles like a ring of soot, utterly dispirited, it really made one worry for him.

"Lao Ha!" Xiao Feng turned his head and shouted towards the outside.

Soon, Lao Ha's voice came before he appeared.

"Coming, coming, coming, boss, I'm here!"

"How are you taking care of Old Shao?

Huh?

I told you to take good care of him, but he ended up like this?"

Lao Ha instantly wore a bitter expression. Before he could say anything, Shao Baxing, sitting on the bed, shook his head and said, "It's not his fault, it's just... my own... misfortune!"

At this, Xiao Feng and Lao Ha couldn't help but look at each other as if they had realized something, their gaze turned towards the corner of the room.

There, a red-haired woman was sleeping soundly, her perky nose inflating and deflating a bubble of snot with her breathing.

"Old Shao, are you saying she..."

Before Xiao Feng could finish his question, Shao Baxing had already nodded, saying, "My patience has reached its limit!

Let me go, I want to settle the score with her!"

"No, no, no, Old Shao, there's no need." Xiao Feng consoled, "At your age, having such fortune should be considered a good thing.

Think about it this way..."

"Wait a minute!" Shao Baxing interrupted, "What fortune? Where do I have any fortune?"

"Uh..." Xiao Feng looked at Lao Ha, questioning, "Did I misunderstand?"

With that, his gaze shifted back to Shao Baxing, "Weren't you worn out by Lu Lishuang?"

Lao Ha agreed deeply, "I thought so too. People can't handle things the same way as when they were young. Just look at myself before... cough, let's not go there."

"Pah!" Shao Baxing's anger flared up, "Only someone as dirty-minded as you could think of something so dirty!"

In his fury, Shao Baxing began to explain the source of his torment.

The main reason, naturally, was Lu Lishuang.

Ever since getting a projector, Lu Lishuang's life had become boring, monotonous, and exhilarating.

Apart from regular psychological counseling from Jia Luo, with Jia Luo's help addressing some physiological needs... like eating and going to the bathroom.

The rest of her time was spent watching movies.

The routine was still the same as before: cheering at exciting moments, eyes filled with urgency, longing, and intense killing intent.

Mercilessly criticizing illogical points.

This all seemed fine on the surface, but for someone Shao Baxing's age, it was unbearable.

Especially seeing the killing intent in Lu Lishuang's eyes and hearing her scathing criticism. He couldn't eat or sleep well, not once having a proper sleep.

At this point, Shao Baxing nearly tearfully said, "These days, even a nap gives me nightmares. I've dreamt of my father several times.

My father told me 'Son, hold on a bit longer, in a few days I'll come to get you,' and right before you guys came, I dreamt of being chased with an axe..."

"Stop, Old Shao, stop!" Xiao Feng said apologetically, "I should have let you out sooner if I knew it was this hard for you.

As it happens, in a few days there's something I need your help with..."

"No problem!" Shao Baxing immediately replied before Xiao Feng could ask, "I'll do anything if it means leaving this hellhole!"

Xiao Feng and Lao Ha exchanged a glance, both filled with emotion.

The renowned expert Shao Baxing, even he faced such a day...

"Untie Old Shao, and temporarily arrange for him to stay with you guys." Xiao Feng looked at Lao Ha, giving him a meaningful look.

Lao Ha naturally understood his boss's intentions, nodded, untied Shao Baxing, and supported him out of the basement.

Xiao Feng looked towards the corner at Lu Lishuang, just as he saw the bubble of snot burst on her nose.
