Chapter 22: The Alliance Leader
As the saying goes: the three armies have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The most important part of the army's march and war is grain and grass.
If this logistical supply is insufficient, even the strongest army will not be able to exert its due combat effectiveness.
Similarly, for these martial arts people who 'don't eat fireworks in the world', the supply of logistics is naturally crucial.
If these people are in the sect, they can still be self-sufficient. But if you go out of the sect, if you fight for a long time, food and accommodation will become a big problem.
Therefore, it is a good thing that the Mo family can solve the problem of food and accommodation for hundreds of them.
In fact, in the past few decades, whenever some major events have happened on the rivers and lakes, the people of the Mo family will naturally appear.
However, the people of the Mo family do not get involved in the grievances of the rivers and lakes, but only for the righteous sect to solve the necessary problems of life.
In this way, over time, all the major sects in the rivers and lakes are also willing to give the Mo family a thin face.
And this is one of the reasons why the Mo family is growing day by day, and the family industry is all over the country.
Right now, the chief manager from the Mo family in the Huamanlou has taken over the presiding position of this martial arts conference.
After all, for such an important conference, some inconvenient things to say still need someone outside the martial arts to say.
"I think you have also heard that the army of the imperial court is resisting the invasion of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the north, and it is temporarily unable to withdraw from the south, so let all the martial arts people go south to fight the Japanese first."
What he said was the truth, and it was also the words released by the imperial court.
It's just that these words can only be used to deceive the ignorant common people.
Everyone present had already scoffed at the imperial court's move.
Sun Changxing, the master of the five-stick sect wearing a black mink felt hat, snorted coldly, "Brother Mo, everyone is a person who understands, don't pay attention to these words said by the imperial court. There are only a few hundred people in this huge court, and if it is said that this huge court can't even make up hundreds or thousands of people, then my grandson is a person who doesn't believe it."
A middle-aged man in a black and red robe with a face like a heavy jujube at the table next to him also said sharply.
"Humph! This court first let Jinyiwei muddy the rivers and lakes, and then pushed all the charges of killing the people on the heads of the widows. Now, he wants me and others to come here to calm down the chaos, which is obviously to ask us to kill each other, so that his court can reap the benefits of the fisherman."
The person who spoke was none other than the Sect Master of the Burning Sun Sect, Wu Shaogang.
He was already very unhappy with the actions of the imperial court.
Now that someone mentioned it, I immediately began to get annoyed again.
And as soon as he said this, all the big people present also looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
After all, for his words, everyone present also knew it.
But helplessly, the Japanese in the coastal area have been rampant for a long time, and after the people of the southern sect entered the sea, it directly led to the current chaos.
Therefore, their group of people will also go south as a last resort.
Mo Ruohua saw that the atmosphere in the audience was a little solemn, so he coughed lightly before he smiled at the two people who had just spoken.
"Please also ask the two heads to calm their anger first. This matter is reasonable, and it is indeed a dereliction of duty on the part of the imperial court."
He paused slightly, and his expression became slightly more serious before he continued to face everyone and said seriously.
It's just that although the court was unrighteous first, the people are now displaced, hungry, clothed, and miserable. If we and other people in the rivers and lakes don't take action again, I'm afraid that these innocent people, and maybe many more, will all suffer because of this."
His words were very slow, but they were sonorous and powerful.
He is a businessman, a businessman who is skillful and exquisite.
He just saw that the two masters had led their grievances to the court, so he could only toss and turn and let the topic return to the rivers and lakes.
Chen Feng, who was still in a white robe, glanced at the head of the Mo family thoughtfully, looked at Sun Changxing and Wu Shaogang, and said solemnly, "The current situation is compelling, and the court will let it go in advance." Let's solve the martial arts matter first."
With Mo Ruohua's previous words, coupled with the help of the sect master of the Snow Mountain Sect, Sun Changxing could only be interested in no longer talking about the affairs of the imperial court.
And Wu Shaogang, as the sect leader of the Flame Sect, has always had a fiery temper, especially when he is not used to looking at the despicable things in the world.
Now, when he saw that there was nowhere to vent the anger in his heart, he said indignantly.
"The people of our eleven major sects have already arrived, I want to see if these Japanese bandits, as well as those southerners who have entered the sea, dare to kill them again."
Mo Ruohua smiled helplessly again, he knew that the other party was unhappy, and he just wanted to vent.
He didn't take Wu Shaogang's words, but looked at the people present and spoke.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in Mo's humble opinion, the most important thing at the moment is to first select a person who has the ability to lead everyone to quell the chaos as the leader of this battle. Otherwise, many righteous people in the rivers and lakes will be like a plate of scattered sand, and it will be difficult for them to give full play to their due strength."
He was not wrong.
The cultivation of these people present is very strong.
But if it can't be guided correctly, then this powerful strength is likely to not get the results that everyone wants.
Regarding what Mo Ruohua said about the alliance leader, everyone present did not express any disagreement.
It's just that this alliance leader seems to have evoked some bad memories of Wu Shaogang.
He remembered a man, remembered something.
So, he was irritable by nature, and he spoke out again.
"Hmph, I said twenty years ago that Confucianists are hypocrites. But at that time, you didn't believe me. Now, look, Confucianism didn't even send a single person."
In fact, the older generation present and those who experienced that dispute all knew that the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance twenty years ago was a senior of Confucianism.
And many people also remember that the fledgling Wu Shaogang once provoked the eldest disciple of Confucianism, Qin Weiming.
It's just that Qin Weiming at that time had already entered the martial arts, and his cultivation was much higher than that of his peers.
Therefore, Wu Shaogang's provocative behavior is naturally regarded as asking for hardship.
"Hey, I said Lao Wu, who doesn't know that you went back to challenge Qin Weiming because Miss Chu belonged to someone else." Sun Changxing looked at each other with a smile and said sourly.
But after saying this, he also changed his tone, facing Wu Shaogang, and said in a deep voice, "The people of Confucianism did not come here to participate in the martial arts conference, and everyone also had a lot of complaints in their hearts. But I have to say that twenty years ago, if it wasn't for the desperate killing of the Zoroastrian leader, then I don't know how many people would have died in that battle. Moreover, in the battle of that year, seventy percent of the disciples of Zhengwumen died, and their vitality was greatly damaged. Therefore, if you are ridiculing Confucianism again because of your children's personal feelings, I really can't stand it."
Wu Shaogang saw that the other party was actually tearing down his own table in front of so many people, and he was angry at the moment, and stretched out his hand to the other party, and said angrily, "You... You..".
But before he finished speaking, Sun Changxing was already sarcastic again.
"You said so much, you don't want to be the leader of this martial arts alliance~."
