CHAPTER 866: CHAPTER 841: THE NIGHT RAID ON THE DOOMSDAY FAMILY HEADQUARTERS

Ye Chen and Haozi briefly discussed and finally decided to head straight to their destination, Ottawa, the capital of Canada. From the current information they had, the headquarters of the Doomsday Family was located in a remote area of Ottawa. Ottawa is bustling, but the Doomsday Family has established its power in a mountainous area of the city. In that region, the Doomsday Family has absolute control, and no one can approach it, not even the Ottawa police.

"Brother Chen, although there is risk in this, it’s the quickest way to rescue the sister-in-law!" Haozi took a deep breath.

"Alright, let’s do it this way!" Ye Chen nodded. A long-distance raid might not be the best method, but it was the most effective and practical. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and said, "No matter what, we must be careful today. We can’t sacrifice innocents to save Li Ruo!"

"I’m willing to sacrifice to save the sister-in-law!" Haozi looked earnestly at Ye Chen and said, "I believe I’m not the only one who feels this way; many others think so too."

"Alright, let’s go!" Ye Chen said with a cigarette in his mouth, "Be extremely careful, let’s send a few brothers to nearby towns to get some trucks. We have too many people, we need to move in batches, otherwise, we will easily expose the target!"

"Understood!" Haozi nodded.

Soon, more than a dozen of the little brothers changed into civilian clothes and headed to the nearby towns. The area is close to the port, so there are many large container trucks. A single truck can carry two to three hundred people easily, and with so many people crowded into the container, there’s no need to worry about warmth as it will inevitably be very warm!

The elite team sent out did not disappoint, returning with three container trucks, the last one over ten meters long, easily accommodating more than two hundred people. Ye Chen had his troops rest and replenished their energy while preparing a meal by boiling large chunks of beef and adding salt and other seasonings.

After finishing a night snack, the team immediately boarded the vehicles. Eight hundred people set off in three trucks from this remote mountain village, heading majestically toward Ottawa. Initially, Ye Chen was cautiously guarding against roadside police checks, because if the vehicle owner reported them, it would certainly trigger a series of chain reactions. For this reason, Ye Chen specially changed the license plates.

The journey went peacefully without incident.

By the afternoon of the next day, the vehicles entered the vicinity of Ottawa. It would take just another hour to reach the planned location, which Haozi was already familiar with. Soon, the vehicles arrived at a pre-determined location in Ottawa, an abandoned factory. To talk about this factory, there’s a long story. Simply put, this factory belonged to a Canadian tycoon who belonged to the Doomsday Family. Due to conflicting interests with the Rothschild family, Haozi killed the tycoon here. This is why Haozi is so familiar with the place.

After the tycoon’s death, the location gradually fell into decline, and the factory slowly became deserted. Ye Chen had his troops take a brief rest here and set up a stove to cook a meal. As the saying goes, "A man is made of iron, food is made of steel; one cannot starve oneself silly."

After a day and night of hiking, the soldiers devoured their meals and then lit a fire in the factory to stay warm and sleep. After resting for an afternoon and half a night, the soldiers’ energy was mostly restored.

"Big brother, it’s already early morning now; we should be able to launch the attack!" Haozi grabbed his rifle and put on a bulletproof vest. Safety still had to be a priority. Ye Chen sat silently by the fire. Although this surprise attack had a significant advantage, one thing had to be said, long-distance raids were generally avoided in military strategy, and here it was the headquarters of the Doomsday Family.

The scene reminded Ye Chen of a historical anecdote when Xiang Yu led 30,000 elite troops to encounter the Qin Army’s 200,000 men. Xiang Yu destroyed the Qin Army, causing them to abandon their armor and flee.

Ye Chen wondered if he should also cut off any chance of retreat and fight to the death, or perhaps he should have Da Xia’s secret unit withdraw, hoping it would inspire his will to survive. Ye Chen mocked himself inwardly, realizing he didn’t have the prowess of Xiang Yu, yet he was trying to copy such reckless behavior. Haozi nudged Ye Chen and said, "Big brother, what’s wrong with you?"

"Oh, it’s nothing, let’s move out!" Ye Chen glanced around inside the factory; everyone was ready.

"Move out!" Haozi immediately gestured.

This abandoned factory is less than ten kilometers from the headquarters of the Doomsday Family. From here, it takes less than an hour to reach the destination. Ye Chen and Haozi made a nighttime assault in the snow. It’s November, and Canada already had heavy snowfall, arriving exceptionally early this year. Especially here in the suburbs, where the temperature was particularly low and many places were sparsely populated.

Canada is a country with sparse population distribution, with only about ten people per square kilometer. Some places are so remote that even after traveling for several days and nights, you might not see a single person, just endless snow and a world of white.

After more than half an hour of a rapid march, Ye Chen and his team finally reached the headquarters of the Doomsday Family. The headquarters was at the foot of a mountain, built against the mountain, making it easy to defend but hard to attack. Outside, there was a three-meter high, half-meter thick wall guarded by men with rifles, and every vehicle had to be checked to enter or exit, let alone people.

At night, the place was brightly lit. To prevent anyone from sneaking in, the guards at the gate frequently changed shifts. Every half hour, there was a change of guard. In the bitter cold, the security guards at the gate kept stamping their feet and breathing warm air into their hands, just hoping the seemingly endless half-hour would quickly pass.

"Brother Chen, the terrain here is disadvantageous for us!" Haozi took a breath of cold air.

"There’s no impregnable terrain in this world!" Ye Chen gave a cold smile and said, "Find the enemy’s weakest spot and strike hard there, and you can break through."

"But where is their weak spot?" Haozi asked, looking at Ye Chen with confusion.

"The more solid a place appears on the surface, the weaker it is!" Ye Chen said with a faint smile. "Look at this terrain; built against the mountain, the back seems solid, but it’s actually their weakest point!"

"Big brother, do you mean to attack from the back mountain?" Haozi was stunned, looking up at the towering mountain. He exclaimed, "Climbing this mountain won’t be easy! Moreover, the cliff at the back has a drop of over a hundred meters, it’s impossible!"

"I never said all eight hundred people should attack from the back." Ye Chen smiled coldly and said, "Send in a Vanguard Team to attack from the back mountain, then cause chaos. Isn’t there a saying? The strongest defense can be undone internally by chaos first!"

"Alright, I’ll go select the people and have them enter from the back mountain!" Haozi received his orders and left.

Soon after, more than ten men with white headbands appeared neatly in front of Ye Chen. Ye Chen gave them a serious look, then took a deep breath and said, "The success of this mission lies on your shoulders. Do your best and don’t let down the Rothschild family’s expectations!"

"For the Clan Leader, for the family!" they resolutely replied, unwavering determination in each of their eyes. Their loyalty was only to the family, only to the Rothschilds. They lived and died for the Rothschild, believing family honor was paramount, a belief ingrained in every warrior of the Rothschild family and every resident of Leisure City.

"Move out!" Haozi personally led the team, bypassing the buildings to climb the mountain. The dense trees gave them leverage to climb. Each of them had steel cables tied to their bodies. Even in the freezing temperatures of over a hundred degrees below zero, the steel cables would not deform or shatter.

Using these steel cables, they deftly climbed the towering mountain and trudged through the dense forest. Haozi took the lead with the Mountain Axe. To prevent anyone from mistakenly entering the forest, the Doomsday Family had set up a wire mesh around the perimeter. Haozi directly slashed the mesh open with the Mountain Axe and led the others through.

After about twenty minutes of climbing, they finally reached the back mountain of the Doomsday Family headquarters. Haozi whispered, "Get ready, check your weapons again!"

Clatter...

Everyone checked their weapons and the grenades on them. These items were critical; if they malfunctioned, the mission’s objectives couldn’t be met. Haozi’s simple plan was to open the gate unnoticed and welcome Ye Chen in. If they were found midway, they would cause chaos, giving Ye Chen outside an opportunity.

"Equipment is fine!" everyone responded.

"Good, prepare to descend!" Haozi decisively secured one end of the steel cable to a tree, then began descending the cliff. With a drop of several dozen meters, this was still the lowest point Haozi had chosen. Descending here to a dark corner was a relatively ideal position.

Clatter...

More than ten men descended rapidly from a height of dozens of meters. The rope was only thirty meters long, so the last ten meters they had to climb down using just their hands and feet! The final ten meters were the most challenging. Haozi’s body was covered in mud, but in the end, Zhonggen safely reached the ground. The more than ten men crowded into the narrow space, and they might encounter patrolling security outside.
