A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television.

Chapter 379: Annihilate the Invading Enemy

That evening, the sun had just set and the sunset glow in the sky had not yet faded when groups of strong men came out on bicycles from all over Syracuse. After reaching the outside of the city, they gathered together to form a team of more than a hundred people and rushed towards Enrique's tavern.

At this time, the tavern was also crowded with people. Most of the younger brothers Lu Cheng had recruited in the past few days were here.

Lu Cheng glanced at Enrique and said, "Old Enrique, your tavern may not be able to be saved today. However, I will rebuild a bigger tavern for you later."

Enrique looked at everything around him and felt a little sad: "I understand, sir."

"Okay, now everyone enter the ambush site."

"Yes, sir."

"Alright, everyone, enter the ambush site and prepare to give our enemies a big gift."

After saying that, Lu Cheng picked up the Beretta M1938 submachine gun on the table, put two Beretta 1934 pistols on his waist, and walked out first.

Two days ago, Lu Cheng withdrew some money from the bank and went to the black market, where he bought a 90% new submachine gun, several pistols, and a batch of bullets.

The Beretta M1938 submachine gun is made of high-quality steel, with a stable structure, reliable performance and high accuracy. It uses front and rear double triggers for shooting, with the front trigger for single shots and the rear trigger for continuous shots. It has an effective range of 200 meters and can perform accurate bursts within 100 meters. It is also one of the best weapons of the Italian army.

Following Lu Cheng's order, everyone immediately left the tavern and hid behind some shelters that had been set up on both sides.

Lu Cheng was also hiding behind a small mound on the side of the road leading to the tavern, with a submachine gun and two pistols placed in front of him.

In the thermal sensing radar, when the enemy entered the one-kilometer range, Lu Cheng made a gesture to his men on the opposite side, and everyone immediately quieted down and waited quietly for the arrival of the enemy.

In fact, some of the younger brothers were also very panicked. They didn’t know how many enemies would come this time, how many guns there would be, and whether they would die in this battle.

Some people have even started thinking that if the battle situation becomes unfavorable, they will just turn around and run away and not die here.

After all, many people here were just ordinary gang members before. Some of them have never even seen blood or received any training. You can imagine their fighting ability.

Even those who had seen blood and killed people had only touched guns many times before, and their marksmanship was mediocre, so they could only fight when the wind was favorable.

When we first saw more than 100 people swarming in, many of them started to panic, and some of them even had legs that started to tremble.

Soon, the enemies rushed to the front of the tavern, jumped off their bicycles one by one, took out their weapons, walked to the front of the tavern, and pointed their guns at the tavern.

In an instant, seven or eight submachine guns, forty or fifty pistols, and some shotguns and rifles were aimed at the brightly lit and noisy tavern in front.

Then, the leader waved his hand forward, and everyone opened fire with their weapons, and countless bullets sprayed towards the tavern in front.

"Da da da" "bang bang bang"

After a burst of gunfire, the wooden door and earthen walls of the tavern were riddled with holes, and the noise inside stopped abruptly, but no screams were heard.

Just as those people were puzzled, some people suddenly emerged from behind the cover on both sides of the tavern and opened fire at the enemy in the middle.

One of the submachine guns in particular fired bullets one after another, and with each bullet, an enemy was shot in the head. In the blink of an eye, all the enemies in front with submachine guns were killed.

After all 30 bullets were used up, a large number of enemies in front had fallen. Lu Cheng threw down his submachine gun and picked up two pistols. He fired from both guns, and bullets were fired continuously, taking the lives of the enemies one by one.

Before Lu Cheng's men could fire a few shots, they saw the enemies falling down like wheat being cut. They were all stunned. Some even forgot to shoot and just watched Lu Cheng accurately call out the enemies' names.

The enemy was caught off guard and lost so many people at once. They immediately panicked and began to hide everywhere or kneel down to surrender. The scene was in chaos.

Lu Cheng's younger brothers immediately seized the opportunity, beat the enemy hard, and started shooting at the enemy.

Soon, many enemies began to turn around and flee, but before they could reach the bicycle, Lu Cheng, who had already replaced the magazine of his submachine gun, pulled the trigger again and began to call out names.

Soon, there were only about twenty people kneeling on the ground in surrender, a few pretending to be dead, and some injured by Lu Cheng's men.

Lu Cheng replaced a new magazine for the submachine gun, and then spoke loudly: "Those who surrender should put their hands on their heads and walk to the side, and leave their weapons. Everyone, clean up the battlefield, and re-shoot all the bodies, 1 shot to the head, 2 shots to the chest."

"Yes!"

Those who were lying on the ground pretending to be dead immediately jumped up and said, "I surrender, don't kill me."

Those who were injured also begged for mercy and surrendered.

Lu Cheng immediately ordered people to clean up the battlefield, collect all the weapons in a pile, and gather all the corpses.

This time, it was not just one gang that came to encircle them, but a group of troops drawn from the three largest gangs in Syracuse.

Eliminating these people also means that the main forces of the major gangs in Syracuse have been basically eliminated, and the remaining forces will no longer be able to fight against Lu Cheng.

Of course, Lu Cheng has only killed some people at the moment and has not yet annexed the other party's territory. His own troops are not stable enough, and there is still a lot to do next.

However, the effect of tonight's battle was also very obvious. Relying on his combat power far beyond that of ordinary people, Lu Cheng directly established an invincible image among his younger brothers, which is of great benefit to his future development.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Lu Cheng had those who surrendered tied up and locked up in a tavern. He left a dozen people to watch them, and then took the others, took up weapons, and began to clean up all the forces around the city of Syracuse.

The fighting lasted all night, and by dawn, all gang strongholds in the suburbs were basically cleared out.

Of course, some gang members did not live outside the city, but lived in Syracuse. Lu Cheng was unable to lead people into the city for the time being.

There are garrisons and police stations in the city, so gang members dare not engage in gunfights in the city. Once they attract soldiers or police, they will be in big trouble.

Lu Cheng's career has just started, and he doesn't want to fight against the military and police. Even if he wins, it will bring endless trouble.

What's more, even if they are gangsters, there is no need to provoke the authorities. Win-win cooperation is the long-term way, and fighting and killing is just a means.

Just like the mafia before, if they were not so arrogant, they might not have brought about their own calamity.

After cleaning up the surrounding forces, Lu Cheng gathered all his brothers and gave a speech: "Brothers, we are now the largest gang in Syracuse. We have people and guns. But are we satisfied with just this? Think about the Mafia before, which controlled everything in Sicily. How glorious it was?

Of course, we can't be like them, go against the government and be eliminated in the end. However, we also want to have our own careers, we also want to make more money, live in the biggest house, drink the best wine, and sleep with the most beautiful girls. Why are you willing to follow me all the time?"

"willing!"

"Very good, everyone has performed well these past two days. Camilo, Eric, give everyone money first!"

"Yes, sir!"

Businesses without capital make money the fastest. Within less than half a month after Lu Cheng arrived in Sicily, the money in his hands increased from a maximum of more than 1,000 lire to 600,000 lire, not including the money given to his younger brothers and some gold and silver properties that had not been converted into cash.

Of course, this is just the beginning...
