Chapter 187: Chapter 187 A Warning To Raymond
There were guards at the entrance of the building, but they were all killed at first encounter.
In tonight's operation, most of the North Shore Gang members were sent to attack the Austrians Gang's property, leaving only 30 to 40 people at the station to guard the house.
But this guy Bill, had sent over more than a hundred people.
Clearly aiming to overwhelm them with numbers.
When the heavily armed men from Bill's gang stormed into the luxurious office of Jamie, Jamie Weiss, Bugs Moran, and David all looked shocked and incredulous, while Alan Payne, sitting in the corner in handcuffs, appeared pleasantly surprised.
Jamie and the others never expected their stronghold to be breached by Bill's gang. They were the planners; how could this happen?
Jamie Weiss gritted his teeth and suddenly pulled a gun from a drawer, but before he could raise it—
"Ratatatatat~!"
Several machine guns opened fire simultaneously.
Jamie Weiss was instantly riddled with dozens of bullets, his body falling down to the ground.
The strategist Bugs Moran's face turned pale with fear, immediately raising his hands.
"No, please don't kill me."
"Bang~!"
At that moment, standing at the forefront of Bill's legion, Rossi fired a shot at Bugs Moran, who collapsed, still gasping for breath.
As blood trickled from his chest, he struggled to ask, "Why? Why kill me after I surrendered?"
The legionnaire looked coldly at Bugs Moran and said, "Our boss said surrendering shows no backbone. There's no need to keep the cowards."
This sentence was not said by Bill, but by Hardy.
In addition to a few business managers, the Bill Gang also has four major legions. The real combat power of the Bill Gang is in the hands of these four legions.
The leaders of these four legions are all from the 30 people Hardy recruited the second time. When they followed Hardy, Bill had not yet been discharged from the hospital. When the Bill Gang was formed it had no combat power. Hardy consulted them on joining the gang and they agreed to be legion commanders, showing their loyalty to Hardy.
They were even more loyal to Hardy than to Bill.
Looking at Bugs Moran, now lifeless, David gritted his teeth and tried to remain calm, "You're from Bill's gang, right? I'm from Detroit, Raymond's strategist. Given what's happened here, I think we should sit down and talk."
Legion Commander Rossi looked at David and sneered: "Mr. David, right? I know you are Mr. Raymond's advisor."
David's heart trembled.
He didn't expect the other side to already know his identity and background. He was shocked and felt the situation had spiraled beyond his expectations and those of everyone else.
Who could be masterminding this behind the scenes? If there really was such a person, David thought he must be terrifying.
"Since you know who I am, you should know that killing me will only anger Mr. Raymond. It won't benefit you at all," David said, trying to keep calm.
The legionnaire grinned, "Do you know what my boss said when I came here? He said to kill you to provoke Raymond. He wants to show Raymond that Los Angeles isn't something he can just take over."
"Using your blood, we'll tell all the powers that here we call the shots."
David was frightened. Fear was evident on his face.
"Wait, please don't kill me. I'm willing to pay to redeem myself." David was wealthy; he was worth millions. He didn't want to die here like this.
The legion commander sneered: "Do you think this is the Middle Ages, using ransom to redeem yourself. Besides, our boss's orders cannot be changed, no matter how much money is involved."
"Bang~!"
A bullet pierced David's skull, and he collapsed to the ground.
If Hardy were here, he would have stopped this guy, who was so obstinate. If he was willing to pay a million, he could have let him go. As for the warning to Raymond, a fine is also a warning.
Unfortunately, Hardy wasn't there, and the legionnaire strictly followed his orders.
After killing David, someone unlocked Alan Payne's handcuffs. "Mr. Payne, we'll take you back now."
"How's it looking outside?" Alan asked urgently.
"You'll see when you get out."
After Alan left, the legionnaire and his men began a frenzied search of the North Shore Gang's compound. This was an Irish stronghold; there had to be good things here.
They brought dozens of large trucks and were prepared to take away whatever they could find.
At the same time,
Bill's gang began sweeping through the North Shore Gang's businesses: prostitution, gambling, drugs, smuggling, loan sharking, theft, dog fighting, horse racing...
The North Shore Gang had a diverse range of businesses, and tonight Bill's gang would take over all of them.
Hardy received word that Jamie Weiss and David had been taken out. He told Henry:
"Call Chief Ed and ask if he wants credit for this. If he does, follow our plan."
Hardy wanted tonight's operation to be completely legitimized.
Chief Ed was deeply worried tonight. The sound of gunfire echoed throughout Los Angeles, resembling a battlefield. He had no idea how he would explain things tomorrow.
If the mayor asked, what could he say?
How would he deal with the terrified citizens?
What if the reporters questioned him? What would his response be?
If he told the truth, that it was a gang shootout, his career as LA police Chief would be over.
Henry contacted Chief Ed, and they met on a certain street. Ed got into Henry's car, and the driver stepped out to smoke, leaving the two of them alone.
"Chief Ed, you're about to make a significant contribution," Henry said with a smile.
"A contribution? There's gunfire everywhere, and so many people have died. I will be very lucky if I could keep my position," Ed replied, his face filled with worry.
Henry chuckled. "Chief Ed, what do you think happened tonight?"
Ed was puzzled. "What happened? Wasn't it a gang war between two groups, causing all this carnage?"
Henry shook his head.
"No, no, that's not the truth. The real situation is this: there's a gang that's been entrenched in Los Angeles for a long time, the North Shore Gang. They've committed numerous heinous crimes. You, Chief Ed had enough of that. Determined to eliminate them you secretly sent people to investigate."
