Rogue Mayhem
Ye Nanfei and Sister Hong's relationship remained unchanged, and after a storm, a rainbow appeared. The mother-in-law had indeed
become much more restrained, and Xiaoli, being sensible, indicated that she didn't intend to control the finances, only helping with collecting money and managing accounts,
but still handing over all the money to him at night.
As time passed, a new era was destined to arrive. Whether it was because the previous control was too tight and strict,
and today's sudden relaxation resulted in a huge backlash, or whether the Chinese people inherently needed strict control,
the word "chaos" could be used to describe it. Along with the chaos came vigor, hope, opportunity, and vitality. In the cultural and intellectual circles,
a little chaos was certainly better, but for both the highest and lowest levels, the feeling wasn't good.
The upper class felt a loss of control, which made them feel insecure and didn't look good on them. They preferred
order. The feelings of the lower class were varied; for honest and law-abiding people, this era presented
danger and terror. Because thugs are everywhere, and they're extremely brazen, how dangerous is it? You
could be stopped, threatened, and harassed anytime you're walking down the street. If you tolerate it, they might let you go, but if you show the slightest
disobedience, a beating is inevitable.
If you're a woman, and a pretty one at that, it's even more troublesome. If you're alone on the street, being harassed is
unavoidable; the severity is hard to say. It might just be verbal teasing, or it could involve physical assault, depending
on who it is. For example, people like Cao Laosan from Bahu District or Laibazi from Jiangbei, if they fancy a girl, they'll
simply tell her to come to their house that night. If you don't agree, the consequences are severe. Just how severe?
No one has actually tried. You can try to get someone to plead for you.
There have been a few cases where men have sexual relations with women, but whether the women consented is unknown.
As for rape, we won't even mention it; it's far more heinous. In short, bullying men and women is everywhere.
Fourth Brother's gang has done their fair share of bullying men, though they don't go so far as to harass women. At most, they might harass women
. It's not that they're particularly kind; it's just that many women like to hang out with them—in today's terms, they're their fans.
These women are never respected or valued, but they seem to enjoy it. Perhaps being with powerful people
makes them feel powerful too, and being protected gives them a sense of security. These women are always
at the mercy of whoever wants them, and sometimes Fourth Brother and the other big brothers even arrange for them to sleep with certain men. Fourth Brother once
said that if Ye Nanfei followed him, he could be a groom every night.
Chaos means conflict, and the entanglement of interests between Fourth Brother's gang and Cao Laosan's gang has reached
an irreconcilable stage. Many people mistakenly believe that becoming the boss means controlling everything, but
that's not the case. Often, you'll be dragged into things and forced to do things, like in this upcoming brawl. If you don't
fight, it'll be hard to convince the crowd, your prestige will be affected, and the morale of the entire gang will suffer . They'll
all be subservient to thugs from other areas in the future.
The reason is that the underlings have already fought several times. As mentioned before, the thugs in each area originally had roughly their own
territories, but now that it involves specific interests like opening shops, some ambiguous areas are each claimed as
their own. In this situation, it's really hard to resolve without a fight.
Since it's decided that a fight is necessary, everyone's eyes are on Ye Nanfei, waiting to see what he has in mind. Ye Nanfei: "Since
it's decided that a fight is necessary, let's make preparations. At least two preparations: one is intelligence—
information about Cao Laosan's side, all kinds of information, including food, clothing, shelter, and interpersonal relationships. The second preparation is to gather the brothers
; how can we fight without brothers? Fourth Brother, has the location for the battle been decided?"
Fourth Brother: "The usual place, Dongdatan." Dongdatan has always been the designated location for group fights; it's large enough
and far from residential areas. When floods come, it's a vast expanse of water; normally, it's a large, gentle
beach.
Ye Nanfei: "Hey Monkey, Brother Huang, you'll be in charge of gathering intelligence and information. Monkey, take some brothers to keep watch
. We've got Cao Laosan and his group's key figures under surveillance. Brother Huang, you'll be in charge of gathering information on them, anything
related to them. Brother Ya, Brother Bandit, and Lao Bian, you'll be in charge of gathering the brothers and training them. Brother Ya, do you remember
how we trained last time? Fourth Brother, Brother Guo, what do you think of this arrangement?"
Fourth Brother: "Sure, great! If it's my arrangement, then we'll just have everyone grab their weapons and have a shootout that day, haha
, Xiao Fei is really capable. It's settled then, everyone split up. Wait, Xiao Fei..." "What do you think I should
do?"
Ye Nanfei said. "Fourth Brother and Brother Guo don't need to do anything. Just wait until the day the battle starts, give a pre-battle mobilization,
boost the morale of the brothers, and then sit in command."
After assigning everyone out, Ye Nanfei returned to the shop, picked up the map, and pondered how to deploy his troops. As for
how Ye Nanfei became familiar with these things, there was no need to ask; he must have learned it from his master. Back in the forest, his grandfather
would ramble on about many things in his spare time, including military strategy. His master liked Taoist philosophy, so he inevitably came into contact with military strategists
. He often said things like, "If we had deployed our troops like this back then against the foreign devils, how would that have been?"
He had subconsciously learned quite a bit, and although he couldn't reach his master's level, he was
more than capable of commanding thugs in a brawl.
Just as he was pondering this, his younger sister came looking for him after school: "Coward! I heard everyone's been assigned tasks to others.
What are you assigning me?" This girl, if she didn't participate in such an exciting event, she would feel like she was dying.
Ye Nanfei: "What? You want to join the war? Just stay home and study, that's not your job."
Little Sister: "No way! If you don't let me get involved, I'll pester you. You choose."
Ye Nanfei: "No, you little rascal... ugh... sigh." Ye Nanfei looked at his determined little sister,
truly at a loss. Suddenly, his eyes lit up—he had an idea.
Ye Nanfei: "You take Mule and the others to make weapons. Ask your brother for materials, and ask Da Ya or Lao Bian for quantities.
But it's a deal, if you don't do well on your final exams this year, don't ask me to take you out to play anymore." He then
drew a few diagrams on a piece of paper, wrote down the data and materials, and handed it to her.
Little Sister: "Okay, don't worry, I guarantee I'll complete the mission, hehe."
The next few days were quite busy for Ye Nanfei; information and messages from his subordinates kept coming in, and he had to constantly...
He analyzed the situation, made plans, and needed to take care of Hongjie at home. Although he had handed the shop over to Xiaoli and called Xu Xiaojuan back
to help, he still needed to check on things regularly. He also had to train the recruited people. At this point, Xiaomei and Mule could indeed help
him share some of the burden, such as training.
Specific fighting techniques could be taught to Xiaomei and Mule, but the core principles had to be
clearly explained. A total of over a hundred people had been recruited, plus Lao Huang and Monkey who had each taken more than ten people earlier.
The strategy remained the same: three people per group, three groups per team, three teams per brigade, forming three
brigade-level units. The remaining 20-odd people were specifically tasked with training slingshots; their specific uses were unknown.
Ye Nanfei told them to remember several essential principles: attacks couldn't be individualistic; if one person charged in,
they had to maintain formation, coordinate with their partners, and provide mutual cover. This wasn't just about their own safety, but also the safety of their brothers.
Once scattered, don't run around or panic. Try to retreat in an orderly manner. If that's impossible, retreat to the main camp.
Reorganize after you return; the main camp will definitely provide safety for everyone.
With the battle imminent, Fourth Brother's office on the second floor of the dance hall became a temporary command center.
Maps of Chuanying and Bahu District hung on the wall. The core members of the team often gathered here to discuss attack plans, but each person
only knew their own part. Only Ye Nanfei knew the true overall plan. Fourth Brother was even more clueless,
unaware of the brothers' training and equipment.
Tufei, Daya, and Lao Bian only knew which part they would attack that day, busy familiarizing themselves with the terrain and plans. Monkey
and Lao Huang constantly relayed messages. Ye Nanfei: "Brother Monkey, have they gathered anyone to train or anything?"
Monkey: "Didn't see. They're getting together more often than usual to eat, drink, and
have fun. I guess they're discussing what to do. I heard Cao Laosan has been talking to a lot of people; looks like he's looking for help."
Fourth Brother: "Damn, if he can find people, let's find some too! Let's see who finds more!"
Ye Nanfei: "Finding more people is useless; they're just a rabble. If Fourth Brother wants to show off, he can
invite some friends to watch." With that, Ye Nanfei gave a confident smile.
Fourth Brother: "Hey, why do you seem so confident? The fight hasn't even started, and you're already guaranteeing victory?"
Ye Nanfei: "It's not about whether I dare to guarantee it; this is an asymmetric war, hehe, there's no suspense." Everyone
was confused, looking at each other.
Before the battle, Ye Nanfei seemed very confident, but on the day of the battle, it was a completely different story.
That day, the weather was kind to them; it was early winter, the sky was high and the air was crisp. In the morning, both sides arrived at Dong
Datang one after another. Of course, the news had already spread like wildfire in the martial arts world, and many were there to watch the spectacle
. Both sides took their positions, and even Fourth Brother himself couldn't stand it, let alone Cao Laosan's side.
Fourth Brother: "Hey Xiao Fei, what are you up to? Where are our men? Why are there only a few of us?"
Ye Nanfei: "Don't worry, Fourth Brother, quality over quantity, hehe." Fourth Brother's face was grim. This
wasn't a fight at all. In the past, fights were about who had the most men; this was how you showed off
. With only a few people, how could they possibly be presentable? Don't blame Fourth Brother for complaining; he only had about thirty men in front of him, and besides Brother Guo, those standing with him
were just some friends from the martial arts world.
On the other side, there were over three hundred men, three jeeps they'd somehow acquired, and the rest riding motorcycles.
Their momentum was immediately overwhelmed. Cao Laosan then climbed out of the car: "Scarface, come out! Heh heh,
look at this! I thought Lao Si was some big shot, but with just these two, what's the point of fighting? Don't say we're bullying him...
Haha, damn it, let's find Li Longfei and Juezhu. They're cowards, they won't get involved. Just wait and see."
Scarface: "Heh heh, damn, Lao Si isn't that bad, is he? What's the point of fighting with just a few people?"
It turned out that Scarface and Cao Laosan from Tiedong had teamed up. No wonder they had such a big fuss, and
quite a few third- and fourth-tier thugs from various areas had been lured in.
Cao Laosan stood on the hood of the vehicle: "Hey Lao Si, what's wrong? Nobody here? Need me to lend you a few brothers?
Haha, oh dear, is there even a need for a fight? I'll give you some face today. I think you can leave Chuanying District to
me and Scarface. We've been brothers for so many years, why fight? What do you say, Lao Si?"
Ye Nanfei: "Fourth Brother, it's okay. Challenge them, shout whatever you want. We'll see who wins when the fight starts
. That's the effect we want. Pride comes before a fall."
Fourth Brother: "Hey Lao San, why are you afraid to fight alone? You even dragged Scarface along. Do you think having more people is better? I,
Lao Si, never rely on numbers. I rely on my brothers' courage and fighting spirit. A lion fighting a sheep, one is enough. More sheep are
useless."
Ye Nanfei took this opportunity to quickly get the equipment. Looking at the thirty or so men, most of them
were from working-class families and had plenty of helmets. They wore small plywood shields on their left arms,
only about 40 centimeters in diameter, and carried short sticks nearly a meter long in their right hands.
Seeing their equipment, Fourth Brother's confidence increased somewhat: "Brothers, the time to test you've all come!
We'll see what you're made of. You won't know who's tough or cowardly until the crucial moment. Today isn't
about brawling; it's about our livelihood, our reputation, and our territory.
What have we been fighting for all these years? Reputation and territory. Without territory, where do you go?
Today is our battle to defend our homeland. Brothers, are you confident?"
Fourth Brother's pep talk ignited their enthusiasm, and they roared, "Yes..." Fourth Brother, true to his reputation as the leader, really
had that kind of spirit.
Fourth Brother: "Didn't you eat breakfast? I can't hear anything! Why isn't it as loud as a woman moaning in bed?
Is there anything?"
Everyone: "Yes..."
