Zhejiang, the original place of the Longyou Gang.

In the hall, the core high-level of the Golden Snake League, Yuan Chengzhi, Wen... Xia Qingqing, dumb, Jiao Gongli, Jiao Wan'er, Luo Li of the Golden Dragon Gang, Rongcai of the Longyou Gang, Shili, the abbot of the lower courtyard of Qingliang Temple, Zheng Qiyun, the leader of the Seventy-two Islands Alliance, and others all gathered here.

Yuan Chengzhi, who was not very accustomed to the leader's style, glanced around, remained humble, and asked, "What do you think about this matter?" ”

Everyone's eyes fell on a letter on the desk next to Yuan Chengzhi.

The letter has already been passed around and everyone present has already read the contents.

It is precisely because of the importance of the matter that everyone knows the importance that they dare not speak falsely.

The content of the letter is briefly one thing: the heroes of the green forest in the two realms of Beizhili and Shandong were brutally killed by the eagle dogs of the imperial court, and now only the 'wolf in the mountains' is still struggling to support and resist the Jinyi Guard.

However, the court is powerful, and the 'wolf in the mountain' may be difficult to insist, and the leader Xiao Shiyi decided to surrender to King Chuang, but he wanted to give a big gift before returning. This so-called great gift was two million taels of silver escorted by 6,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang.

Xiao Shiyi's letter said that with the power of the 'wolf in the mountains', he could eat this fat meat, so he wanted to join forces with the Golden Snake Alliance, combine the strength of the two families, ambush on the road that Caoyin must pass, and get half of each after they succeeded, and then they carried this Caoyin to the righteous army.

Jiao Gongli, the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang, pondered for a moment and said: "This matter can be done, that is, now that my Golden Snake Alliance has set up a banner against Ming, there is no turning back, why not be bolder."

Emperor Chongzhen can only rely on the silver collected from the south of the Yangtze River to pay the salary, if we can take this batch of silver, will be able to weaken the imperial court, if the Chongzhen court can not pay the military salary, the front line of the army is unstable, the chances of winning the king will be greatly increased.

Besides, although we have now taken refuge in King Chuang, but we have not made great contributions for a long time, if we can take this batch of silver and dedicate it to King Chuang as an army, it can set the heart of the army. ”

"Jiao Gang Master is right." Longyou Gang Rong Cai continued: "But this matter is very important, and the lives of tens of thousands of brothers in my Golden Snake Alliance are at stake, do you know if the 'wolf in the mountains' Xiao Shiyi is credible?" As far as I know, this 'wolf in the mountains' has only appeared in the past year, and it is not as famous as the green forest gangs such as the Qingzhu Gang, does it really have the strength to compare with us? ”

Yuan Chengzhi nodded and said, "What Gang Master Rong said is exactly what I am worried about. Boy, dare to ask the seniors how much do they know about this 'wolf in the mountains' and Xiao Shiyi? ”

Zheng Qiyun, the leader of the Seventy-two Islands Alliance, raised his head and said, "I have a lot of dealings with the brothers in the northern green forest, and I also know some details about this 'wolf in the mountains'.

It is said that although this Xiao Shiyi is mysterious, his martial arts are pure Shaolin martial arts. In terms of killing corrupt officials and punishing evil gentry, he is the most active among his colleagues, and often rescues his friends in the green forest, and is definitely the most hated person in the court.

As for the strength of the 'wolf in the mountains', although now in Beizhili and Shandong Lvlin, only his forces are still struggling to resist, but he has also secretly rescued many other persecuted Lvlin friends, so his strength has risen instead of falling, at least no less than 5,000 people. ”

Yuan Chengzhi smiled when he heard this: "Okay, if it is as Brother Zheng said, this Xiao Shiyi is really a hero of my generation, if he can join the command of King Chuang, he should make the righteous army like a tiger!" ”

Xia Qingqing knew that he couldn't give advice in this regard, and he had always been accustomed to Yuan Chengzhi's obedience in major matters, so he asked Yuan Chengzhi rhetorically: "Big brother, what do you think?" ”

Yuan Chengzhi said: "If you think it's okay, then the things proposed in the letter can be done!" Time is pressing, so contact the 'Mountain Wolf' as soon as possible to discuss how to act! ”

No one in the hall objected, and they said in unison: "Follow the order of the alliance master!" ”

Yuan Chengzhi himself was inclined to agree to the cooperation proposed in the letter, because the letter mentioned not only two million taels of silver, but also the felons who were escorted to Beijing with him and awaited beheading; Among them were his father's former subordinates, and the uncles and uncles of the Mountain Sect who watched him grow up.

Now that he has learned about this, based on this alone, he can't ignore it, even if the 'wolf in the mountain' doesn't mention it, even if he Yuan Chengzhi fights for his life, he has to save these uncles and uncles who are as kind to him as a mountain.

If it weren't for the fact that the Golden Snake Alliance didn't have enough confidence to kill the six thousand officers and soldiers who escorted Cao Yin and many felons, Yuan Chengzhi couldn't help but do it now.

It's a pity that he knows very well that his subordinates are all good at looking at the rivers and lakes, and those ordinary officers and soldiers who are one-on-one will never be their opponents. But the problem is also serious, the people in the rivers and lakes are straightforward, do not easily obey the discipline, do not obey orders, rely on martial arts to act without authorization, if they really fight, they are a gang of rabble.

If this rabble of tens of thousands is used against 6,000 officers and soldiers, even if they are calculated or unintentional, they can win in the end, and the Golden Snake Alliance is afraid that there will be a lot of damage.

Joining forces with the 'Wolf of the Mountain' is the most sensible choice.

Yuan Chengzhi didn't know that in the original trajectory of fate, he also led a group of rabble to defeat the 6,000 officers and soldiers. Under the aura of the protagonist, the demons retreat, the enemy reduces intelligence, morale is reduced, and he takes the initiative to expose his weaknesses and take the initiative to send people to the head.

……

Fengyang, Governor's Palace.

Ma Shiying held a secret letter in his hand, his brows furrowed slightly.

Recently, he has been in a bad year, and he worked hard to get two elixirs that were stolen, and he planned to draw water in a bamboo basket. After that, he almost turned Jiangnan over, but he didn't get the slightest clue about this matter, which made him unable to say anything about his bitterness and was greatly depressed.

Later, the 'Golden Snake League' suddenly appeared, in order to bring disaster to Jiangnan, killed officials and rebelled, so that the gang of bigwigs in Nanzhili continued to put pressure on him, but he sent people to encircle and suppress many times to no avail, seeing that the foundation of those anti-thieves gradually stabilized, he was also angry.

Now these anti-thieves are still eyeing Caoyin!

If these thieves really succeeded, the two million taels of silver really had a mistake, and he would probably be punished for dereliction of duty and incompetence.

Blocking people's careers, such as killing parents!

If he hadn't received this secret letter from Jinyiwei, he was afraid that he would have to keep it in the dark, and when he really waited for those anti-thieves to succeed, he would not be able to return to the sky.

Ma Shiying couldn't tolerate this happening, and raised his head and ordered his cronies: "Immediately send someone to catch up with the general army of the water immediately, tell them about the incident, let them postpone their trip, and take precautions." Dispatch another 10,000 soldiers and horses, and I will personally lead them to catch up! ”

……

In Jinling, in a restaurant, there are two men drinking and talking.

One of them said in a low voice: "What you said is true, then the governor of Fengyang, Lord Ma, almost turned Nanjing over before, and this matter turned out to be fake?" ”

The other person looked left and right, poured a sip of wine, and said obscenely with a flashing tongue: "What I said can be false, my distant brother is working under Master Ma, and he has heard about it with his own ears."

With such a treasure, how could Master Ma not be afraid of being remembered. This thing was originally intended to be dedicated to the emperor, so that the emperor would live a long life, and give him an official every year.

There was such a big fuss outside, everyone knew that Master Ma had lost the treasure, and naturally the thieves would not worry about it anymore, who knew that this treasure had already been secretly sent to the capital. ”

When his companion heard this, he exclaimed, "These big men have a lot of thoughts! ”

"Hey, this once-in-a-lifetime treasure, you can't be too careful. Thousands of years of Fu Ling, the humanoid He Shou Wu, and many precious medicinal materials are added, these things alone have cost a huge amount of money, and in the end, they are even more refined.

According to legend, this Poria cocos shou black pill can bring the dead back to life and prolong life! Obediently, if we can smell it in this life, it will be worth it! ”

"You're telling the truth!"

There was a sudden cold drink behind him, and then the two men were grabbed by the collar and lifted up by an old man, a young woman, and their strength was so great that it was difficult for them to resist.

In a panic, they saw that there were five figures around them.

A middle-aged man and woman dressed like a peasant family looked like a couple, but the peasant woman was holding a child in one hand and a person by the neck in the other, with a sinister face.

Three other young men, two men and one woman.

One of them, a man and a woman, each carrying a sword, the man's face was arrogant, and the girl's eyes were frosty, and her face was domineering, and she also carried one in her hand.

The last man was tall and honest,

"You... What are you going to do! The men looked horrified.

"Smack!"

That year, the girl looked very beautiful, but her character was extremely domineering and arrogant, and she slapped her without saying a word, and slapped her face: "Let me ask you!" What you just said is true! ”

The man was frightened and trembled and said, "Really... Really, what the little one said is true, my distant brother personally told me that Master Ma had secretly made forty Poria shou black pills, and secretly sent them to the capital with the officers and soldiers who escorted Caoyin to the emperor and presented them to the emperor! ”

The middle-aged couple looked at each other with anger on their faces.

"I was almost deceived by this dog officer! Chase! ”

It turned out that they were the Huashan faction Gui Xinshu and Gui Erniang couple, as well as three disciples Mei Jianhe and Liu Peisheng, and the flying witch Sun Zhongjun.

They had heard that Ma Shiying had obtained two precious elixirs, so they planned to come to the door to snatch them, and use them to succeed their beloved son, who was congenitally deficient and had the appearance of dying young.

I didn't want to rush to Jiangnan but the elixir I got had been stolen, and several people traced it to no avail, but I didn't want to hear this secret here.

Sun Zhongjun smashed the man in his hand to the ground and said coldly: "If this thing is fake, I will come back and take the lives of your whole family!" ”

She is definitely not intimidating by this, there is more than one family that has been destroyed by her and Gui Erniang, even if it is an unarmed old woman and a young girl, they can be ruthless.

After speaking, Sun Zhongjun turned his head and hurriedly followed up with Gui Xinshu and the others.

In the restaurant, the two frightened men glanced at each other.

What appeared in his eyes was indifference and calmness, which was diametrically opposed to the surface.
