"dad--!"

Ophelia walked over, pulled out her revolver and pointed it at a head, and immediately a little boy ran out from the crowd, crying. An elderly woman behind him looked anxious, but she couldn't keep up with the speed, so she could only stop in front of the Hydra soldier's gun and shouted the boy's name.

The man who was pointed at by the revolver was trembling all over, but the wound in his abdomen did not allow his body to resist. He could only hug his son tightly and cover his eyes with his hands.

Under the gaze of everyone, Ophelia slowly moved the gun away.

"tell me......"

She read out the man's name. "You and your comrades did not choose to leave, but ambushed and shot at me. You survived, and now even your children and mother may have to accompany you on the road. Tell me, why didn't you choose to leave?"

The man opened his tightly closed eyes, his expression somewhat incredulous: "...How do you know my name?"

"I know all of your names."

The muzzle of the gun turned and pointed at the crowd in the open space. Ophelia said more than a dozen names in front of the man: "I just know it. So, you haven't answered my question yet. Do you think shooting me is more important than protecting the safety of your family?"

"We have nowhere to go... Ma'am." The man coughed violently twice. "Skull Face is dead. The Croats in the east can't hold on for long. The Serbs and Muslims won't accept us either. In the civil war a few years ago, everyone was killing each other. It would be hard for us to survive if we flee to the east..."

"You clearly understand the situation, but you decided not to lay down your weapons and become a civilian. Instead, you took up arms to resist me." Ophelia laughed: "Do you have brains or not? Or just a little bit? You heard the names I read just now. I read them out loud. Do you think I don't know that there are a few Skull Face survivors hiding in the crowd?"

After saying that, she stood up and walked back to the front of the crowd.

Those venomous green eyes scanned everyone one by one, focusing on the faces of a few who were trying to remain calm.

"Everyone, I just talked about what we are going to do next."

Ophelia put the Colt Python back into the holster and raised the tactical watch with her left hand: "The bad guys hiding in front of me, I give you one minute to come out and surrender. You missed the chance to leave yesterday. This is your second chance. I promise not to hurt you, but...

There won’t be a third chance.”

drop!

"Timing begins."

She first gave a few instructions through the headset, then pressed the timer button on her watch, and the Hydra soldiers simultaneously raised their guns, ready to fire at any time. The crowd immediately began to riot, and many of them looked at a few faces obscurely. After more than ten seconds, a pair of hands were raised in the crowd.

The two Hydra soldiers who received the order rushed forward, dragged the man out, and roughly searched him amid the cries of his family. They took away the weapons the man was carrying, then tied his hands behind his back and pushed him to the prisoners of war side.

"Very good, first one." Ophelia shook her watch: "30 seconds left."

After saying that, she let go of the Colt Python with her right hand, pulled out a Makarov pistol from her waist, and checked the 8-round magazine.

Seeing that his companion was indeed not hurt, another man soon stood up and raised his hands in surrender.

"Okay, the countdown is over."

Ophelia raised her gun: "Like I said, there's no third chance."

boom!

Makarov fired his pistol directly, and the bullet hit a head in the crowd, and everyone was so scared that they screamed and squatted down. The surrounding Hydra soldiers still raised their guns, but they were just pretending. Madam Viper specifically ordered them not to fire.

"You! I'm calling you!" Feeling the strong hostility, Ophelia shouted a name and pointed her gun at a man hiding in the crowd: "Don't squat, how about showing your head a little? Don't use others as human shields."

The man cursed, pulled out his gun and held a woman in front of him hostage: "Don't shoot! Or I'll kill her!"

"Wow, isn't that your wife?"

Mrs. Viper smiled as she put the gun away: "Well, you see, I put it away."

"You..." The man seized the opportunity and turned the gun that was originally aimed at his wife's head to the front. When he was about to pull the trigger, he saw a flash of fire at the red-haired witch's waist, and then a sharp pain came from his right hand holding the gun.

A .357 Magnum bullet entered the knuckles between the middle and ring fingers, tearing off most of his palm. The man screamed in pain, and the weapon fell to the ground with a thud. The second bullet followed closely, hitting his right wrist accurately. He was no longer able to support himself, and fell to his knees with a scream.

The wife he held hostage didn't care about her husband at all and ran away crawling.

boom!

Ophelia fired a third shot, ending his suffering.

"Okay, ladies and gentlemen, the threat is over, you can get up." She opened the Colt Python's cylinder and reloaded it: "No need to raise your hands, thank you, I said no need to raise your hands, you are not skull-faced soldiers, as for you..."

After ordering the Hydra soldiers to lower their guns, Ophelia turned to the prisoners and said, "I can't remember how many people I have killed in the past two days, gentlemen. Unfortunately, if there are still people who refuse my kindness like those two bad gentlemen just now, I will have to kill more today, so..."

She put the Colt Python back into the holster. "You now have two choices. First, take your family and leave my territory today. I can even arrange a boat to take you across the Sava River. Second, stay here and accept my rule. I can protect your safety. I don't care what ethnic group you are from. Anyway, I am from Hungary, so I will treat you equally. This is my promise, but I will not accept bargaining - and I will never allow betrayal."

"I won't give you a minute this time."

Looking at the silent men, Ophelia raised her watch: "Five, four, three..."

"I'll stay, ma'am!" Someone immediately raised his hand: "I choose the second option!"

"very good."

Mrs. Viper said expressionlessly, "What about you guys?"

......

Night fell as expected, but the war in Vesaniko still did not subside.

Ophelia stood outside Pier 7, looking at the civilians gathered on the banks of the Sava River, and felt a sense of absurdity in her heart.

The purpose of leading the team out today was to eliminate the remnants of Skull Face, but he didn't expect that it would end up transporting refugees. When he learned that the new force Viper Faction at Pier 7 was willing to send people across the river, even the Kra soldiers who were hiding in the territory and preparing for an ambush and rebellion changed their minds and rushed here with their families.

The number of people continued to increase from noon, and by seven or eight in the evening, the entire Pier 7 was crowded with people waiting to get on the boat. Ophelia had difficulty figuring out how many Croat soldiers were mixed in. Anyway, these guys now had a common desire to cross the river, and they had families, so they would not make a fuss at this time.

Even so, she had to add more staff at Pier 7.

On the other side, after receiving the urgent order from Madame Viper, Savovich had no time to rest and immediately began to prepare for battle.

According to intelligence, facing the joint encirclement of Serbs and Muslims, the remaining Croat soldiers under Skull Face were defeated step by step, and the battle in the east of Vesaniko began to become one-sided. After occupying the territory, the Serbs and Muslims started a small-scale expulsion, or should we call it a small-scale massacre.

They certainly had no intention of accepting Croat civilians.

Then someone spread the news that Pier 7 could be used to cross the river.

Many Croat civilians who had fled to the eastern region sneaked back, trying to take the boats at Pier 7 to cross the Sava River and join their compatriots in Croatia on the other side of the river.

It can only be said that at the critical moment of life and death, and for the sake of their families, these Kra soldiers were willing to put aside the new hatred they had with the Viper Lady faction. In fact, most of them had never met the Hydra soldiers, and had not even seen Viper Lady's temporary labor force, that is, the mercenaries.

If you want to make an enemy, it's with my former boss, Skull Face.

He's dead anyway, isn't he?

Once enough people hold this idea, others will be able to convince themselves naturally, especially those Kras who have never met the Viper faction and whose family members and comrades died at the hands of the Semu and Samui tribes. They immediately become the main group with this idea.

Objectively speaking, this is true.

The decapitation operation against Skull Face a few days ago was very successful. Therefore, in overall comparison, the number of Croats who died at the hands of Serbs and Muslims was much greater than that of the Viper faction. After all, these two gangs not only did not take many prisoners of war, but were also happy to massacre civilians.

But no matter what, as early as when the first batch of Croat refugees poured into the Viper Faction's eastern defense line, Sarovich reported to Ophelia.

Madame Viper's first order was to stop all the people.

No one is allowed to come in.

Who knows if Nikolai and Iben's men will be so bloodthirsty that they will chase into his territory.

Is he going to go to war with these two forces just because of a bunch of Kras civilians and deserters?

And what if a small group of enemy troops sneak in?

The original decision to take over Pier 7 was simply to ensure the smooth flow of water. The handling capacity of this pier is not large, and it does not have many ships of its own. Given the current size of the crowd crossing the river, even if all the boats that can be found are used, it would be great if we can finish it tonight.

I even paid for gas to do this.

Why?

"lady."

Ophelia had just lit a cigarette when she heard Sarovich's voice behind her: "The number of refugees gathered outside the eastern defense line has exceeded 500. There must be a lot of Skull-Faced remnants among them. These people are armed and may attack us in order to survive."

"What are the movements of the Serbs and Muslims?"

"They are still clearing the eastern area and cannot reach us for the time being. However, with the current development of the war, their soldiers will approach our eastern defense line as early as tomorrow evening."

"Continue to strengthen the defense. The mortar team must not get into trouble. Use all the confiscated weapons and supplies in case we really have a firefight with those two gangs." Ophelia put on her beret and picked up the AK automatic rifle. "You stay here to lead the river crossing. I'm going to check out the eastern defense line."
