Survival begins with Red Dead Redemption 2

Chapter 76, Chapter 75, Taking Hostages and Raising Hands to Surrender
75,

"It's not the money that Da Qi hid. Where can I find [-] US dollars and give it to you. People change, Mr. Lahn, Mr. Van der Lin is a little cautious, but it is not impossible for me, Dai Pingan, to win his trust." .”

Dai Ping'an said so, but his heart was already beating.

He was careless, and the past few days made him ignore one important thing - the Van der Lin gang used to make a living in New Austin.

It wasn't until the looting-based meal in the west couldn't bear it that the Van der Lin gang had to wander east all the way to Blackwater Town in the south of West Elizabeth.While robbing the cruise ship in Blackwater Town, they were ambushed by Pinkerton again.

After hiding $15 in stolen money, Dutch took advantage of the snow to cover the mountains to hide in Coulter Village in the north of Ambarino, and then fled to New Hanover, south of the small town of Valentine in spring. The Horseshoe Watchtower camp, which allowed Dai Pingan to find an opportunity to sneak into the gang.

Even before Dai Pingan separated from them, some people in the gang still wanted to go back to the west, which was New Austin.

The police and Detective Pinkerton may not know about the Van der Lin gang, but they are also gangsters and robbers. As a relatively powerful branch of the Howling Wolf gang, the Salamanca family has occupied the bandit territory for more than 20 years, so how could they not know something about the Van der Lin gang.

However, Dai Ping'an had no other way out at this time, so he could only bite the bullet and hold on.

The Lower Montana River behind him was rushing, but it was waist-deep, let alone jumping into the water to escape, and even a toad could be seen clearly.In front of him, there were many black muzzles, each of which was aimed at his head.

For a moment, Dai Ping'an suddenly felt that the scene in front of him was very familiar.In gangster movies, it seems that every ending will have such a paragraph:
Faced with the heavy siege of the police, the villain took the hostages and made the final struggle. Afterwards, the protagonist seized the opportunity to shoot and kill the hostages, or the hostages were kicked to the crotch, and finally they missed and were captured and imprisoned.

All end the same way, with few exceptions.

The situation is such a situation, the environment is such an environment, just like those desperate villains, Dai Ping'an is fighting for this almost rare exception.

No matter how slim the hope was, he had to tear and struggle desperately. After all, from the moment he escaped from the Chinese labor camp, he had no way out.

"Of course people will change, but human nature will not change." Lahn's voice sounded from the wall, but still did not come out:

"I have met Dutch van der Lin, he is a leader who emphasizes loyalty and trust. But people tend to talk about what they lack, so I know that he will not trust anyone, and of course he will not trust anyone. I will tell anyone where the money is hidden. This includes Arthur, including Hosea, and it must include you."

"You are different from him, Mr. Dai Pingan, Daqi always chooses to let others do things for him, but you are different, you are willing to do things for others. It is like on the other side of the river, you let your companions leave first, choose Come here alone."

"Compared to Daqi's selfishness, Mr. Dai Ping'an, I admire your spirit of sacrifice. I haven't seen such a noble quality in this land for a long time. It's a pity, I still have to remind you. Noble, it doesn't help your situation at all. Put away your weapons and surrender, I don't have to kill you."

"Thank you, Mr. Lahn, thank you very much for your generosity, but have you forgotten something?"

Of course, Dai Ping'an couldn't follow the old-fashioned way of persuading surrender.He strangled Sheqi, who was struggling again in his arms, and shrank his body as far as possible behind the opponent:
"I still have a hostage, your son Sheki."

"is it?"

"Bah!"

Despite Dai Ping'an's subconscious tug, the blood-splattered wound still opened on his chest. When he let go of his left hand, Sheqi's body collapsed limply on the ground.

The bullet passed through Sheqi's body, embedded in the copper plate of Dai Ping'an's vest, and pulled it off with a slight twist.

"What now?" The voice that didn't show up was already calm and scary.

"He seems to be your son?"

"It's true that he is my son. So what, the Salamanca family has never been threatened, and it is even less likely to be a bargaining chip for being threatened."

So what, what else, he even sacrificed his own son, Dai Pingan, besides raising his hands to surrender, could he fight back with two heavy machine guns and dozens of muzzles aimed at him?
According to Mr. Lahn's order, the others did not shoot, and Sheqi, who was still alive, was carried down for treatment. Dai Pingan's weapons, including the Hidden Blade vest, were all confiscated.

At this time, the crowd guarding the gate of the camp separated from the two sides, revealing the two figures in the center.

Walking in the front was Tula, who was not tall but strong. He held a bolt-action rifle in his hand, and the gunpowder smoke from the muzzle had not completely dissipated.Apparently it was the good brother who had just drilled a hole in the chest of his half-brother with a rifle.

The old man following Tula was his father, Ran Salamanca.

Nearly [-] years old, with white hair, but the right side of his face looks younger than Sheriff Dunbar in Heishui Town; the left eye is blocked by a black eyepatch, and the injury cannot be seen clearly, but a scar spreads from the corner of the left eye. It is divided into two, one winding to the corner of the mouth, and the other extending to the back of the head; his right leg is also inconvenient, dragging weakly on the ground, and even the holster with a cowboy revolver stuck on the right side is hanging crookedly on his waist He needs the support of his left crutch every step he takes, and he can't walk fast, but even so, he doesn't need others to help him, and no one dares to help him.

Walking up to Dai Ping'an step by step, Mr. Lahn's tone was still very calm:

"We finally meet, Mr. Dai."

"Yeah, it's a great honor to 'finally' see a real person." Compared with Lahn's indifference, Dai Ping'an already had a smile on his face, even though his hands were locked behind his back by an iron shackle .

Contrary to Dai Ping'an's expectation, Mr. Lahn didn't say anything else, and the first thing he asked was about homework:
"How is Mr. Matthews' health?"

"Uh... It's pretty tough. Of course hunting is tough enough, after all, that's the age."

Dai Ping'an told the truth, there is no need to hide this matter

"Where is John? Or keep the bottle in your hand and get drunk?"

"No, now he doesn't drink much and is busy taking care of the children."

"Really, he has children, that's great. But yes, he always attracts girls, and it should have been fruitful after so long.

Mr. Dai, thank you very much for your information, let's take a good rest first. "

After saying this, Mr. Lalo turned and left, and Tu La, who had been standing beside him without speaking, had turned his rifle and pointed it at Dai Ping'an's face.

"Crack!" "Crack!" "Crack!"

Three times in a row, while the half of the gun stock flew out, the world in front of Dai Pingan's eyes finally darkened.
