PFC Chapter 401 Hongmen Banquet
Chapter 401 Hongmen Banquet
On the federal side, everyone breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Yi Beiwang was truly safe and sound.
Although everyone was able to manage NFPR in an orderly manner when Yi Beiwang was away, after all, the foundation of the family business was laid by him, so everyone still tacitly acknowledged him as the spiritual leader.
In order to rescue her leader, the current academy leader Nora sent hundreds of first-generation synths to chase Degen's team at full speed to support Yi Beiwang.
Long Wande, who was far away in the capital, also received the news. When he learned that Yi Beiwang had successfully killed Elijah, he admired him even more.
Elijah is the shame of the Brotherhood of Steel. He is extremely cunning and difficult to kill. I remember that the Council of Elders had told him about these things.
I just didn't expect Yi Beiwang would go so far and still successfully kill Elijah. He's really awesome.
After receiving this news, Long Wande decided to suspend territorial expansion for the time being and meet with the Brotherhood of Steel in central America to discuss cooperation with them. He believed that after knowing this, they would also appreciate NFPR and Yi Beiwang very much.
Now Yibeiwang has established a base on the west coast, they occupy the entire east coast, and are about to expand to the central region.
If we continue like this, unless something unexpected happens, rebuilding our homeland and making America great again will not be a dream at all.
As long as nothing unexpected happens...

On the other side, Yi Beiwang and others gathered in the conference hotel again. They watched Kugas kneeling outside through the window, wondering what he was up to.
They clearly came here to provoke them yesterday, but today they came on their knees to beg them to go to the banquet, saying that the Crimson Merchant Group wanted to have a serious talk with them.
After a brief discussion and analysis, everyone agreed that the Crimson Merchant Group was up to no good and that there must be some trap.
Valkyrie even brought out the Dragon Kingdom allusions she had learned before the war, and dissuaded him: "The Hongmen Banquet is more dangerous than good, and there is no return!"
"The previous killing has worked. Of course, it is also possible that the Crimson Merchant Corps is afraid of us after seeing us launch rockets."
"My suggestion is to delay as much time as possible and look for all possible support. Once you have enough manpower and supplies, you can catch the Crimson Merchants by surprise!"
"By that time, the one kneeling outside will have to be the deputy of the Crimson Merchants Group, or even the president!"
After saying this, he pointed at Kugax who was kneeling outside and felt that his plan was perfect.
Yi Beiwang was quite surprised and asked, "Do you still know about the Hongmen Banquet?"
Valkyrie said confidently, "Of course I will. Before the Battle of Anchorage, I learned a lot of stories from you. Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. The situation this time is very similar to the Hongmen Banquet."
"Oh, what a fucking Hongmen Banquet, it's clearly the bully inviting bandits!"
"No, it was Xiang Yu who invited Liu Bang."
"Really? Then let me ask you, what did Liu Bang do later?"
"He became the emperor."
"What about Xiang Yu?"
"Ah this..."
He committed suicide, what else can he do?
But the best situation Valkyrie could think of was to force the Crimson Merchant Corps to surrender. As for forcing them to commit suicide, that was probably unlikely.
"So...what do you say? Are you going or not?"
Yi Beiwang did not answer, but looked at the rusty pistol and nine bullets in his personal space.
A Hongmen Banquet? Perhaps he could use this opportunity to make some people never come back. After all, the God of Atom sent him nine bullets, which certainly wasn't to tell him to give in.
Yi Beiwang came up with a bold plan and asked, "What do you think? If we take advantage of the opportunity when the top leaders of the Crimson Merchants Group and the four major gangs are attending a banquet, how likely is it that we can launch a lightning raid on their camps?"
Hearing this, Mist shook his head and replied, "It's a good idea, but there are too many things we need to consider. After all, doing this kind of thing is like turning the table over."
"The consequences of overturning the table, the time required for the raid, and the subsequent cleanup work are not simple."
Yi Beiwang thought for a moment and said, "What if we leave the Crimson Merchants Group aside for now and only target the four major gangs?"
"As for the consequences, don't worry. I can ask Mr. House to give me some face and help me clean up my mess."
Mist was shocked and said, "What? Chief, do you have such a big face? Then there is no problem. Let alone the four major gangs, even if you hit the face of the Crimson Merchants, there is no problem."
"But we have to be quick. It's best to handle these things before the Crimson Merchants Group reacts. That way, even if they get angry, it will be useless."
"What do you mean? Are we going directly now?"
Yi Beiwang shook his head and first took out a stack of photos, all of which were of hostile targets he saw in the crowd before he came to hold the meeting. They must be the spies planted by the four major gangs.
He said to Mist, "These are the traitors I found out. It doesn't matter how I found them. Just trust me. Keep a close eye on them later, but don't deal with them now to avoid alerting them."
"Tell Kugas that you can attend the banquet, but we have to decide the time and place. Let's set it at 6 pm tomorrow at the Shanghaojia Casino in the gambling city. I will attract their attention to delay time, and you guys should act quickly."
"As for now... come with me."
Everyone followed Yi Beiwang to the cemetery, where they had erected a special tombstone for number nine in the shape of the Arabic numeral 9.
This is also what Yi Beiwang felt most sorry for him. The person is dead, but he still doesn't know his real name.
There are too many people like No. 9 in Mojave, who died in unclear circumstances and without anyone knowing they were dying.
In order to prevent the second No. 9 from dying beside him, Yi Beiwang is going to strike hard and beat the Crimson Merchants Group and the four major gangs to the ground, letting them know that he is not to be trifled with.
Yi Beiwang gave everyone a white rose and a red rose, and before taking action he wanted to say a final word to No. 9 and other dead people, letting them watch how he would avenge them.
Everyone understood what he meant, and after receiving the roses, they walked to the tombstone in order to pay their respects.
First came Lana. He walked to the tombstone and said to No. 9, "No. 9, I won't say anything more. I, Lana, gamble on the honor of a former paladin of the Brotherhood of Steel and swear to avenge you!"
George was next. He looked at the tombstone and said, "Number Nine, thank you for your contribution to the Atomic God. The God of Atom will protect you. We swear to avenge you!"
Next came Valkyrie. She came over in a wheelchair, saluted and said, "Number Nine, just rest in peace in heaven and watch us kill the Crimson Merchants. If there is an afterlife, remember to go to the Enclave. At least it's safe enough."
"Former Enclave Major General Valkyrie swears to avenge you!"
Mist followed closely, bowed deeply, and said, "Number Nine, it is my fault that I failed to protect you. I will kill those predators for you myself."
"Don't blame the leader for not being able to avenge you immediately. He was helpless. After all, there were many things he had to consider for the overall situation. Mojave is not about fighting and killing, but more about human relationships. We have to be careful every step we take."
"Without further ado, former NCR Lieutenant Mist vows to avenge you!"
The last one was Yi Beiwang. He came to the tombstone and took out a photo frame to show him. Inside was the family portrait of No. 9.
"Don't worry, No. 9. I will help you find your son. You should also bless us from up there."
"I don't want to come up with any schemes, nor do I want to kill people. All of this is to completely eliminate those who are targeting us. Just wait patiently."
"Number Nine, I, Yi Beiwang, swear to avenge you!"
Everyone stood together, put their emotions and expressions in order, and shouted at the same time: "To No. 9, and all the members of the deceased merchant group, everyone, rest in peace!"
After the memorial ceremony, Yi Beiwang made up his mind and waved his hand, saying, "Go and prepare for this Hongmen Banquet."
"Tomorrow night, the Mojave will be very lively and no one will be able to sleep well."

Damn, I wanted to pay tribute to Let the Bullets Fly, but I feel like I didn’t pay enough tribute. It doesn’t matter though, within twenty chapters, the four major gangs will be wiped out.
As long as nothing unexpected happens.
