Chapter Ninety-Nine: Turmoil in the City
Zhou Yan, Tan Zhen, Liu Ming and others, as Lu Zhen's sworn brothers, have also attracted the attention of Zhang Shicheng, Zhang Shixin and others, and their status in the dynasty is relatively high, so they naturally can't do things as blatantly as Xiang Feng and Wu Shicheng, but the benefits behind the scenes are not less.

Zhou Yan is also the umbrella of the Qingzhu Gang, if Xiang Feng collapses completely, he is really no match for Su Zedong, and Su Zedong does not know how to restrain and suppress the Qingzhu Gang, Chen Sanqiang and Hu Yidao will seek Zhou Yan's help.
Tan Zhen and Liu Ming don't touch the underworld business in Gaoyoucheng, their vision is relatively high, and their hands are relatively high, what they want to do is the business of the grain harvest, but they don't mix with Xiang Feng, Zhang Shixin has a handle in the hands of Xiang Feng and the Qingzhu Gang, so they play.
Tan Zhen and Liu Ming wanted land in the south and west of the city, and the number of power gangs in the west of the city was much larger than in other directions of Gaoyou City.
There are more than 20 or 30 large and small gangs, but they are all petty fights, and the more than 20 together, which is only two-thirds of the Qingzhu Gang's power, and their strength is far behind.
Moreover, before Zhang Shicheng and others did not enter Gaoyou City, they were still united, and in order to resist the oppression and bullying of the officials of the Yuan Dynasty, they were relatively united; But Zhang Shicheng came, and Tan Zhen, Liu Ming and others infiltrated this sphere of influence.
The people who ruled changed, and new policies came, and the various large and small gangs in the west of Gaoyou City began to be their own masters.
The big gangs began to care whether the small gangs lived or died, and the better ones could still take care of the previous situation, ignore them, and start the merger with a ruthless heart, anyway, they got the consent of the official family, and everything can be put on the surface and operated openly, which is much better than the previous government.
It is difficult for the people living in the south of the city to know these things, because the law and order in the west of the city is relatively chaotic, and there are more villages occupied, and the quality of the villagers is lower than that of other villages, so the interests and risks are the same, and they naturally become the pets of interest groups such as Tan Zhen and Liu Ming.
After Zhou Yan saw the gratifying changes under the city tower, he continued with a smile: "But! We can't let the conspiracy of Su Zedong and others succeed! Armament materials, I, Zhou Yan and Tan Zhen, as generals under King Cheng, I will definitely help you get that money back. ”
Seeing that the ignorant rebels below were really shocked by their incomparably clever shouting, although Zhou Yan could not hide the joy in his heart, he still held back a smile.
I only heard him standing on a high platform, pretending to be calm and saying: "However, this side is in a hurry, and most of the family business and energy of our generals are fighting against the Mongols. ”
"The Mongol army is fierce! It's about to come in! And the thieves can't be removed, what else can they use to fight against the powerful Mongol army! Now, it's really hard to take out the relative materials to recover ......"
The people who were just stopped by Zhou Yan were upset when they heard him say that they were going to contribute their own money and efforts again, and they were unhappy on the spot, although few people under the platform dared to scold Zhou Yan for not being human and pitting people, but they were still complaining again and again, which caused a lot of commotion.
Zhou Yan saw that this group of ignorant chaotic people was in a mess again, and hurriedly shouted again, saying the slogan he designed that if there is money, food, and manpower, there will be a few strong men.
Seeing that the people below were still babbling without any change, Zhou Yan was anxious, and scolded a few times Su Zedong is really not a thing, Su Zedong is a hungry wolf who eats people and does not spit out bones, and is a piece of shit......
Zhou Yan said all the dirty words and black words he could imagine, but few people below were still willing to pay attention to him anymore!
In this situation, even Wu Shicheng, who was standing behind Zhou Yan and did not dare to speak out, knew that the people under the city were crazy, they were worried that Gaoyou City would not last for a few days and would break the city, and when the city was broken, their lives would be lost.
The way to get rid of this is to slaughter the city after breaking it, which is a well-known thing in the world!
However, compared with the behavior of the Mongols in robbing and killing, Wu Shicheng, Tan Zhen and others used deception and oppression to endlessly exploit the legitimate interests of the common people, which is of course a more hateful thing, and it is common sense for the people to hate the Mongols very much.
And it is common sense that the common people hate Zhou Yan, Xiang Feng and Wu Shicheng.
Although Wu Shicheng didn't dare to admit it, at this time, he was also self-aware, knowing that he had done too many bad things in the past, and the people were not really all fools, and even if they were fools, their interests were persecuted by themselves, didn't they know it?
Seeing that the form was out of control, Wu Shicheng hurriedly pulled Zhou Yan, who was full of swearing, off the high platform.
On the way back, Zhou Yan scolded this group of "ignorant rebels" is really not a thing, he is thinking about them and doing things for them!
Wu Shicheng can see that Zhou Yan is so crazy, in fact, he was deceived by himself, he was the people who exploited the people by him just to make it easier for them to run away, and robbed their daughters and sons The purpose is to cut off their thoughts!
Wu Shicheng, who is used to doing these things, may be in a disadvantageous position of the interest side at this time, so he is more sober than the interest side, and he can see that it is useless for Zhou Yan to say anything, and the people no longer eat his set!
And it turned out that their decision this time was absolutely correct, because the rumors they spread were immediately denied by the authorities!
Just Zhou Yan, who was made red by a group of "fart people". When he was still cursing Su Zedong and the people of Gaoyou City in the tower at the city gate, news came from his subordinates, saying that the news that Su Zedong had stolen armaments and materials had been confirmed to be false!
Zhou Yan was very angry and confused about this sudden change, and hurriedly pulled out the long sword on his waist and said, "Grandma's!" Which bastard dares to spoil Uncle Ben's good deeds! It's greasy and tasteful, isn't it! ”
Seeing that his subordinates didn't dare to speak more, Wu Shicheng, who was sober-minded, hurriedly grabbed Zhou Yan, who was raising the long sword in his hand to cut down the soldiers who came to report the news, and then asked breathlessly: "You should say it quickly, but who broke me and other things?" ”
Awakened by Wu Shicheng's point, the subordinate said hesitantly: "Yes...... It's General Lu Zhen! ”
What the! It's actually Brother Lu Zhen!
After getting the news, Wu Shicheng and Zhou Yan both widened their eyes, why did Lu Zhen know about these things, and why did he intervene at this time!
Before they could figure out why, Lu Zhen appeared in front of the two!
"What are you doing here? Rebellion? Don't you know Su Zedong's current position and tasks? actually mocked him in front of the people! Ate bear heart leopard gall? ”
Without waiting for the two of them to explain too much, Lu Zhen scolded as soon as he came up.
Wu Shicheng and Zhou Yan both knew that Lu Zhen was very good at being a big brother, so they didn't care about this side, and when they were scolded like this, their faces "brushed" and then sank, like a child who had done something wrong, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look at Lu Zhen.
