When he went out, Zhuo Wuji's indignant expression was gone, and there was an expression of wisdom beads on his face, "Little Yan'er, little Yan'er, do you think you can really fly out of my palm?" You said that on purpose, right? Aren't you just trying to provoke me to have something happen to that person? If I can't even see this, I'm really worthy of the name of the Zhiwang, right?

The women I like are all wise women, and the more this happens, the more it stimulates my desire to conquer. This is where the name of my wise king comes from, and since you want to play, well, I got your heart. ”

……

A middle-aged man in his forties, who was slightly dark and thin, hurriedly walked into a separate courtyard.

This courtyard looks unremarkable from the outside, but when you walk inside, you will find that there is a hole in the courtyard. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a three-step post and a five-step sentry, and I don't know how many hidden sentry posts are ambushed in the dark. At the end of the line is heavily guarded.

On a Taishi chair, there sat a man in his fifties, with an ordinary appearance and some gray hair, such a man would not be found in the blink of an eye if he was placed in the crowd.

No one would have thought that this man was Shen Tuliang, the water dragon king who dominated the waters of the East China Sea and the Yangtze River.

Dragon King Shen Tuliang was concentrating on studying a detailed chart at this time, as if he didn't even notice that the middle-aged man walked in.

After the middle-aged man walked in, he didn't speak, just stood not far from Shen Tuliang, waiting quietly. Shen Tuliang didn't move, and he didn't move.

He knew that it was impossible for Shen Tuliang not to know that he had come in, and the reason why he didn't speak was because he was thinking about the problem, and in this case, no one should disturb him, otherwise that person would definitely die an ugly death.

I don't know how long it took, Shen Tuliang asked without raising his head: "Shen Ping, what do the people of the Black Dragon Society say?" ”

Shen Ping, a middle-aged man, said: "They want us to send 8,000 troops and hand them over to their unified command to fight against the Qing faction that is overwhelmed by the army!" ”

"Eight thousand? What about the other kings? How many do they come out of? ”

"The Gun King Huangfu Ming is 5,000, the Sword King Zhuo Feifei and the Wisdom King Zhuo Wuxian are 3,000 each, the Sword King Cheng Luoyu and Hong Bingyan are 2,000, and the Elder Group is also 2,000. King Mei didn't come out of anything, and the Black Dragon Society asked her to invest 200 million yuan as military expenses. ”

"The number of Sword King, Zhi King, and Sword King is relatively small, and it is easy to say that there are fewer people, Nangong Xiaoxian is a woman, and her subordinates are all women, and it is understandable to replace people with money." Shen Tuliang said with some dissatisfaction: "But why did Huangfu Ming, who received the most aid from them and was the strongest and known as the first on land, only sent 5,000 troops, but asked us to send 8,000?" ”

Shen Ping said: "I also raised this question with them, but the people of the Black Dragon Society said that we dominate the East China Sea and the Yangtze River waterway, and we have the most manpower. In addition, they opened the sea to us, and they made the most profits, so naturally there were more people out of the country. ”

Shen Tu snorted coldly: "This group of bastards is clearly jealous of the huge benefits we have obtained, and they want to take this opportunity to weaken my strength. It's easy for these people to go out and want to come back? Hum! It's basically a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return. ”

Shen Ping snorted: "That...... Are these people coming out, or are we not out? ”

Shen Tuliang sneered: "Out! Of course you want to come out, how can you not go out? Japan is a sea power, our shipbuilding technology is theirs, the top management is theirs, even the sailors are helped to train by them, and if they accept their support, they must listen to them. Otherwise, our fleet would not even be able to get out of the first island chain. You must know that the real resources are in the open sea, and at that time, it will really be the dragon trapped shoal, and our capital to compete with other kings will all be restricted.

Therefore, the soldiers must be released, but well, in terms of early and late departure, as well as the quality of the soldiers, some articles can be made. ”

Shen Ping said: "I understand what the master means, that is, to delay the time of sending troops as much as possible, and to send some idle people to them in the periphery, while the real elite soldiers are left by themselves." But in this case, will it cause the dissatisfaction of the Black Dragon Society, and thus restrict us? ”

Shen Tuliang thought for a moment, "No! Although the Qing faction's army is now pressuring, it seems that the battle is dense, but in my opinion, the Qing faction is at most making a gesture and not daring to really do it, and this battle will definitely not be fought.

If you don't say anything else, you won't agree to it from the above alone. If the two factions really fight, the nature will change, and they will definitely be suppressed. Although both of our factions have a force of tens of thousands of horses, if we really touch the bottom line and cause the anger of the higher-ups, it will only be a matter of a snap of a finger. If you don't move, you can die.

Therefore, this matter is just that the Black Dragon Society wants to take this opportunity to regain the military power in the hands of the various factions of the Hongmen. They have sown for so long, and now it's time to reap. Even if we produce inferior soldiers, who can see it when it is time for a real war? Is it still written on the face who is superior and who is inferior? ”

Shen Ping nodded and said, "It's also such a reason, or the old man is thoughtful." ”

Shen Tuliang said: "By the way, have you seen the person sent by Zhuo Wuji?" What is the matter with him coming to me? ”

Shen Ping said: "His meaning is very clear, that is, he wants to cooperate with us to deal with the elder group together, and after the matter is completed, the territory, people, and funds to which the elder group belongs will all be divided equally." ”

Shen Tuliang smiled incomprehensibly: "This must be Hong Bingyan's girl who has put pressure on him, and the Sword King and the Zhi King can't eat the elder group in a short period of time, so they will seek to cooperate with me." Didn't the elders send for me, too? I guess that's what it means, right? ”

Shen Ping said: "Yes, they have been suppressed by the Sword King and the Zhi King recently, and the request to cooperate with us is very urgent, they promised that after the matter is completed, all the resources of the Zhuo clan will belong to us, and even promised to push the master to the position of the master." ”

Shen Tuliang said with a smile: "Any promise is a flower in the moon mirror in the water, whoever believes it is a fool." Only the benefits that are really grasped in the hands are real. ”

Shen Ping only said yes, agreed with Shen Tuliang's words, and asked: "Now, all parties are waiting for your decision, master, how should we reply to them?" ”

Shen Tuliang smiled a little smugly, "Now, do you know why I didn't come forward, but I asked you to come forward for me?" If I come forward, no one can refuse. And you have followed me since your debut, and everyone knows that you are my confidant, who can speak on my behalf to some extent, but not fully on my behalf, so if you come forward, no matter what, we can have a buffer. ”

Shen Ping smiled: "The master is wise, Shen Ping admires." ”

Shen Tuliang said: "Actually, the biggest threat we have now is not from the Qing faction, but from within. Hong Bingyan's girl can't wait for me to die, the elders can't wait for me to die, and the other kings can't wait for me to die.

A few days ago, news came out that Wang Yi Qianlong died of a sudden myocardial infarction because of an investment mistake. Hmph, Yi Qianlong spares his life more than anyone else, and he has to experience it almost every week, how can there be a myocardial infarction? I think there is a 90% chance that he was murdered.

Even if it's not them, it's definitely not related to them. That old ghost is a living and refined character, if it weren't for someone making trouble inside, who would be able to deal with him?

Today is Yi Qianlong, who knows if it will be my turn next? ”

Shen Ping said: "What the master said is right, day and night, internal thieves are difficult to prevent, and it is much more difficult to deal with your own people than to deal with outsiders." ”

Shen Tuliang nodded and said, "Not bad!" But now there is a relatively favorable condition for us. That is, when they were fighting to the death and stalemate, we were very well out of the matter, and our strength was preserved to the greatest extent. So now, I've become the object of their scrambling. In this case, we have the initiative, and with whom we cooperate, the balance of victory will be tilted in favour of whomever we want, so that we can derive the greatest benefit from it. ”

"What does the old man mean...... Who do we work with? ”

Shen Tu Liang said: "No matter which faction you cooperate with, it is not wise!" Who can guarantee that they will not cross the river and tear down the bridge, and put us together at the most critical moment? At that time, we don't even know how we might die. We cooperate with every faction, but we don't contribute to the work, let them fight on their own, and when they fight and lose, we will reap the benefits of the fishermen. Isn't that what we who make a living on the water do best? ”

"Yes, sir, I know what to do. However, Zhiwang also brings a piece of news that must be taken seriously. ”

"What's the news?"

"It is very likely that the Yangcheng Huo family and the Qing faction have come together. The death of the human king is very likely to have a great relationship with Xiao Yun, the new head of the Qing faction. ”

"What did you say?" Shen Tuliang was slightly surprised, "You mean to say that the Yangcheng Huo family has joined forces with the Qing faction?" ”

Shen Ping said: "Yes. It is said that before the accident, Yi Qianlong reached a strategic cooperation agreement with the Huo family in Yangcheng, and after this agreement was signed, it would bring immeasurable benefits to both Yi Qianlong and the Huo family. However, this agreement was strongly opposed by the parent Huo Xi.

Later, under pressure from within the Huo family, Huo Xi agreed to give up his position as a parent, but threatened to sell the Huo family's shares. Yi Qianlong was forced to buy the shares in Huo Xi's hands at a high price, which caused the capital chain to break. After that, it was very clear that Yi Qianlong's company was suddenly sniped in this situation, the stock price plummeted, but all the commercial banks refused to help, and Yi Qianlong was furious, inducing myocardial infarction and died.

Zhuo Wuxian's investigation showed that during that time, several underground accounts of the Qing faction had a huge amount of money transferred, which may have a lot to do with this incident.

Afterwards, because the opposition of the Huo family lost the big backer of Yi Qianlong, they were purged by Huo Xi following the example of the Xia family in Yangcheng, and now the Huo family is back in the hands of Huo Xi. In this way, Yangcheng can be said to have basically become the world of the Huo family and the Qing faction. ”

Shen Tuliang said: "It seems that this issue must be taken seriously. Why did the Qing faction suddenly choose to attack the king of people who were far away in Hong Kong? Instead of the Gun King, the Sword King, the Sword King, the Wisdom King who can directly confront them, or me? ”

"What do you mean, sir...... Suspect that there may be someone inside Hongmen who is colluding with the Qing faction? ”

Shen Tuliang said: "This is very possible. It seems that we have to do something about it. Shen Ping, you immediately send someone to contact Zhuo Wuxian and the elder group respectively, and say that we agree to cooperate with them, and at the same time put forward some harsh conditions to cover people's eyes. Anyway, the fire is already burning, so we simply add another handful of firewood to make the fire burn stronger. ”
