Chapter 373: Military Might
In the military tent, seeing Lu Jue's suddenly solemn appearance, all of a sudden, those who were originally listless cheered up.
These people are not really so sleepy, it's just that in the past meetings, they, the people of the rivers and lakes, are just going through the motions.
If it weren't for Lu Jue's special order today, I'm afraid these people would still not come, at most let the deputy head of the gang or something, instead of attending the meeting.
"I don't know what is important for General Lu today, so exciting?"
Since the destruction of the Green Snake Gang, these gang leaders in front of them have redefined Lu Jue's methods and strength, and they have spoken with a lot more respect than before.
A white-bearded head sitting at the bottom of the hand, ranked second, chuckled, and asked Lu Jue very politely.
Now these gangs of leaders of the rivers and lakes, after Liu Yewen's death, the focus gradually shifted to Wang Kang, the head of the Black Tiger Gate.
And this old man is naturally the leader of the Iron Palm Gang second only to the Black Tiger Gate, Ren Weiqi.
Lu Jue smiled at the old man, and then everyone on both sides of the main color said: "Everyone knew what happened before, the leader of the Green Snake Gang, Liu Yewen, secretly sold the marching route by gathering crowds to play games, and committed a big taboo in our army. ”
Speaking of this, the old man who was talking to Lu Jue on the side seemed a little embarrassed.
After all, he greeted Lu Jue, but the other party ignored him at all, and began to talk about these things seriously.
This seems to be reprimanding Liu Yewen, the Green Snake Gang, isn't it actually just talking about their group of Jianghu sects?
This old man looks peaceful and kind-eyed, but there are not a few things he does behind his back.
When Lu Jue secretly left the palace to select people for Feng Yewu, he also met the gang of the Iron Palm Gang, and the Iron Palm Gang was originally a loyal and righteous gang.
However, after the death of the previous gang leader a few years ago, the new gang leader who succeeded him, Ren Weiqi, was the younger brother of the previous gang leader, but this person acted extremely, bullied the people, and did a lot of evil things.
"Someone, bring someone for me!"
Lu Jue shouted, the guard at the door lifted the curtain of the tent, and under the escort of two soldiers, a remnant of the Green Snake Gang was pressed in.
The Green Snake Gang, who was originally a little thin, was obviously beaten on the whole head at this moment.
When he came in, he saw Lu Jue and the others, and he immediately knelt on the ground in fright, begging for mercy again and again.
The person who knew the Green Snake Gang on the side and had also been to the Green Snake Gang gambling game could vaguely identify the identity of this person, who was the gang responsible for the gambling game that night.
Of course, it is he who is responsible for secretly putting down the pile of silver or pai gow in every route map.
"General Ben asks you, who wants to buy the march map of the Northern Expeditionary Army?"
When the gang heard Lu Jue's inquiry, they hurriedly replied, "Yes... It is Wei Siyuan, the king of Beichang. ”
Although some of the people have guessed some, it is another thing to actually hear it with their own ears.
In an uproar, I heard someone shouting: "Wait." ”
Everyone looked at it, it was the leader of the Iron Palm Gang, Ren Weiqi.
The old man bowed to Lu Jue, after all, this matter is above the military meeting, and the etiquette that should be there can't be worse.
Lu Jue looked at the old man, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, but he asked Ren Weiqi with a smile:
"Master Ren, I don't know what I think about this matter?"
Wang Kang, who was sitting in the first-hand position, couldn't help frowning when he heard Ren Weiqi shouting slowly, only to feel that this old guy was a lot older, and he was still acting so recklessly.
But now is not the time for him to speak, sneering in his heart, only saying that Ren Weiqi wants to die by himself.
Facing Lu Jue's inquiry, Ren Weiqi smiled, raised his hand and touched the white beard on his chin, and said with a slight question:
"Actually, the old man doesn't mean anything else, if the evidence is conclusive, we naturally won't say anything, but then the king of Beichang is a member of the royal family after all, how can he be convicted just by relying on such a third-rate small character with a few words?"
Hearing Ren Weiqi's words, Lu Jue smiled coldly, and didn't bother to argue with this old horseman, turned to look at Xiao Han Mubai and the others on the other side, nodded with a smile and said:
"Indeed, what the head of Ren said is very reasonable, it seems that such a third-rate little character can't be trusted, so drag him out and behead him for me."
Lu Jue gave an order, and the Green Snake Gang saw that they were about to be dragged out and killed by the soldiers behind them, and they suddenly panicked, and the whole person crawled in front of Lu Jue, and said hoarsely:
"Me! Checkmate! I've got proof! I can prove that what I said is true! I beg the general to spare his life! Don't kill me! ”
When Ren Weiqi saw this scene, he couldn't help frowning, and then realized that he originally planned to embarrass this Lu Jue and take revenge on him for embarrassing him, but now he has invisibly helped him.
The gang in front of him obviously didn't want to hand over the evidence directly at first, after all, as long as the evidence was still on him, then he might still be alive.
Now that he said this, he forced this person to death, and this person naturally said everything.
"Slow, you say you have proof?"
Hearing Lu Jue's inquiry, the gang hurriedly and frantically pointed at their pig-like head, for fear that they would be pulled down by Lu Jue and beheaded if they clicked slowly.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Lu Jue's eyes, then he turned his head to look at Ren Weiqi and asked with a smile: "Master Ren, do you think we believe this evidence?" Still not convinced? After all, you're the oldest with us, so you probably have some more experience than us. ”
Lu Jue's move suddenly made Ren Weiqi even more embarrassed, his old face turned red, and he waved his hand again and again.
After all, if Ren Weiqi made a suggestion, it would become a decision, and the consequences could be big or small, but it was definitely a matter of overstepping his authority to drive out the general.
So this decision, Ren Weiqi categorically can't do.
Of course, in Lu Jue's words, he is also referring to the responsibility of Wei Qi, don't rely on the old and sell the old, in some places, he can really make a decision if he is not an old man.
Lu Jue saw Ren Weiqi waving his hand again and again, and then he slowly looked at the gang, the smile on his face instantly converged, and he asked:
"Since there is evidence, let's show it."
The gang nodded, but there was a hint of embarrassment on the pig's head, which was somewhat indistinguishable.
"Well, General, this evidence is not on mine now, I hid it somewhere else, and I'll get it for you?"
