Chapter 370: The Struggle for Military Power

At the same time that Wang Yin scared away the inspection envoys of the Heavenly Sage Palace, the army in Leizhou City was also in turmoil.

Zhang Sheng, one of the four major generals of Leizhou City, died and the news was passed to his men by the Five Tiger Gates, all of whom strongly demanded revenge.

But they did not come out on their own, but went to ask the other three generals.

There are four major generals in Leizhou City, and the strength realm is in Lingwu Xiu, the highest of which is Wei Xiuwei, who is at odds with Zhang Sheng, not only because he looks down on Zhang San and the Five Tiger Sects of the Jianghu Sect, but also because the two have fought for power.

Zhang Sheng and Zang Ke are good friends, while Fei Hongzhong, who is Du Ziteng's brother-in-law, is a good old man who has a good relationship with anyone, and often acts as a peacemaker between the three.

Zhang Sheng was killed, and Fei Hongzhong of course also got the news.

What else could he do but smile wryly?

It was Wang Yin who killed Zhang Sheng, and he was also helpless!

What kind of strength is Wang Yin? He had killed the city lord of Heavenly Desolate City and a large number of people under him before.

And Zhang Sheng's strength is even higher than that of the Heavenly Desolate City Lord, and he was also killed by him, what does it mean? It shows that Wang Yin's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and he has surpassed the three of them, maybe even Wei Xiuwei is not an opponent.

Moreover, Du Ziteng has always been under Wang Yin, and he will not come back no matter what, so Fei Hongzhong is very embarrassed, and he is absolutely unwilling to take the initiative to provoke Wang Yin.

This teenager made him unable to see through and made him very jealous.

Zhang Sheng's subordinates first approached him, hoping that he would come forward to gather three generals to discuss the matter of avenging Zhang Sheng.

Fei Hongzhong couldn't refuse, so he could only gather Zang Ke and Wei Xiuwei together to discuss it.

Of course, he made up his mind, no matter what others said, on the contrary, he would never make a move, he didn't want to provoke Wang Yin.

After the three major generals sat down, Zhang Sheng came with two subordinates, Zhu Gu and Zhu Xing, who were under him.

"Three generals, my general was unfortunately killed, and you are the same general as him, but you must be the master of the general!" said Zhu Gu first.

"Don't worry, I will definitely not let go of that murderer, killing people will pay for their lives!" Zang Ke slapped the table and said angrily, "Someone dares to attack and kill the imperial court officials, and they don't take the imperial court in their eyes at all! If we don't kill him, where will the face of our Leizhou city army remain, and where will the face of the imperial court exist?"

His eye contact with the ancients, it was obvious that the two had a tacit understanding for a long time.

"What do the others mean?" Wei Xiuwei looked at Zhu Xing.

"I think everything should be done with caution. Ordinary people should not kill court officials casually. Is there another mystery in it?" said Zhu Xing.

"What do you mean?" Zhu Gu yelled at Zhu Xing, and he could hear that the tone of Zhu Xing's words was wrong.

"Don't you want to avenge the general?"

"Of course not!" Zhu Xing denied, "I am more eager than anyone else to avenge the general, but now the information we have obtained is only transmitted to us by the Five Tiger Gates. Don't you know what kind of sect the Wuhu Sect is? They are just hooligans, so how can we trust them casually? Maybe it's just that they want to borrow our hands and borrow knives to kill people. After all, the general is in the realm of spiritual martial cultivation, why do you think that young man actually has such strength to kill the general? It's not that someone is plotting against the general. ”

"And what do you mean?"

"What I mean by this is stability. This incident may not have been done by the spies of the enemy country, so the most important thing for us is to maintain the stability of the army. National stability comes first. Therefore, we must protect the general's hatred, but we must find out the truth to prevent being used. ”

"Focus on the overall situation and the country!" Zhu Gu sneered, "Then may I ask how you are a heavy law?"

"Naturally, we have to investigate first!"

"Didn't the Five Tiger Gates already pass on the news, what else do you want to investigate?"

"Of course, we need to investigate, that young man's background and strength ......," Zhu Xing said.

"Then who will investigate, you or me?" the Ancients sneered.

"I'm in charge of the investigation, of course, I'll organize the investigation, so I won't trouble the brothers!" Zhu Xing said calmly.

"I think you're trying to take advantage of this opportunity. ”

"Brothers' words are wrong, I have no such thoughts, and I can promise here that I will never serve as a general in Leizhou City, let alone inherit the position of general. Can you rest assured?"

He squinted at the ancients with a look of disdain.

When he said this, the ancients were stunned for a while, and they didn't know how to refute it.

"What does General Fei think?" Zangke looked at Fei Hongzhong, and he was the only one who had not expressed his position.

"I also agree with Zhu Xing's idea!" Fei Hongzhong replied, "You all know how bad the reputation of Wuhumen is in Leizhou City, how can you just believe their words? We can only rely on ourselves to investigate clearly, of course, you can check your own, and no one has to listen to others." As for Brother Zhang Sheng's posthumous affairs, the two of you will handle it together, don't be afraid of wasting, you don't have enough money to ask me for it. As for his affairs in the army, the two of you are still in charge of each other, and you have always been like this before. As for General Zhang Sheng's vacant position, the imperial court has its own arrangements, and it is not good for you to fight endlessly now!"

Fei Hongzhong is also an old and cunning guy, how could he not see that the two generals want to seize the power left by Zhang Sheng, and obviously Zhang Sheng's subordinates have taken refuge in one of them, but how can he let them get their wish?

He let the two of them take charge of each other, so that they could still contain each other, and as long as the order of the court did not come down, they could not officially ascend to the throne, and he could carry out his plan.

Of course, doing so also helped Wang Yin, bought him time, and laid the foundation for further development of his relationship with Wang Yin in the future.

"Since General Fei has decided to transfer it, then I have no opinion!" Wei Xiuwei said.

Zangke also nodded at the same time.

And so it was settled.

Fei Hongzhong returned to his mansion and immediately ordered his subordinates to find Du Ziteng and tell him the situation.

"Thank you, brother-in-law, I will inform the young master!" Du Ziteng hurriedly went home to report.

——

The City Lord's Mansion of Leizhou City.

"Bang Bang Bang", the disk shattered, and the bookshelf fell over.

"Waste, it's all waste, I can't find anything!"

The second son of the city lord was furious because his housekeeper was killed and the house was burned, but his subordinates couldn't find out anything.

I only know that the housekeeper and his wife deceived the two little girls at that time, but I don't know what happened to them at all.

"You all go out for me to check, whoever finds out will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold, if you can't find out, you don't have to come back!" The eyes of the second son of the city lord were full of blood, like a crazy wild dog, "Whoever dares to kill me, I must let him not survive, and he can't die." ”

Although his subordinates felt that he had a speech problem, they didn't dare to bring it up, so they could only agree and run away.
