Chapter 353: Lady Dongming
The arrival of the Divine Sword Army immediately lifted the threat of the Iron Cavalry to Jiangyin, and Song Yuzhi and Song Shuang immediately left with the Song family's masters.
Long Tao and Song Shuang only preliminarily agreed on the intention of cooperation in the future, and the specific matters still have to wait for him to go back to Song Que tomorrow, and then send someone to discuss in detail.
Soon after, Kou Xu and Xu also said goodbye and left.
Long Tao, Yin Kaishan and the others returned to the meeting hall of the chief helm of the Bamboo Flower Gang.
Yin Kaishan and the four hall masters were all solemn, and the atmosphere in the hall was a little heavy.
As early as when Long Tao revealed the identity of the Divine Sword King on the city tower, the people of the Bamboo Flower Gang didn't talk much, and their expressions were not so excited, how could Long Tao still not understand what was going on.
I just wanted to say something, but I heard Yin Kaishan say: "Brother Yan, you saved my life twice, and I Yin Kaishan has a great favor that is difficult to repay, take this opportunity, I will give you the position of helper!" I only hope that you can treat the brothers in the gang well in the future, especially these cousins, who were born and died with me......"
"The helper and a few hall masters are too worried!" Long Tao laughed and interrupted him, "Yan Mou brought a large army here, he definitely didn't want to annex the Zhuhua Gang, he just wanted to borrow the small town of Jiangyin and live for a while. To say something that offends you, Yan has 30,000 soldiers and horses in hand, how can he care about a small gang? ”
The faces of several people changed slightly, and Long Tao continued: "The gang leader and the hall masters must not be too careful, thinking that Yan Kuan has any thoughts about the Bamboo Flower Gang, if the gang leader thinks that my identity is embarrassing and it is not appropriate to stay in the gang, I can immediately withdraw from the gang, but everyone is still a good brother, and I Yan Kuan will never force people!" ”
"Good!" Yin Kaishan patted the table and said: "It's rare for Brother Yan to be so honest, it seems that we are waiting for the heart of a villain to spend the belly of a gentleman, but since Brother Yan has already called himself the King of the Divine Sword, it is really not appropriate to stay in the gang and listen to my orders, to be honest, it's not that my brother is afraid of your embarrassment, but that my brother and I will feel embarrassed!" ”
Long Tao said with a smile: "The gang leader is really fast and fast-talking, it's better to be like this, in the future, we will be commensurate with brothers, the Bamboo Flower Gang and the Divine Sword Army are also brothers, the gang leader and all the hall masters are willing to come to my Divine Sword Army to fight for a reputation, I am willing to be wide and welcome, and if you don't want to be restrained, you will continue to take the children of the gang to enjoy the rivers and lakes, isn't it the best of both worlds?" ”
Yin Kaishan was overjoyed and said: "This is very good! ”
The army settled down in Jiangyin, and the news of the establishment of the Divine Sword Army by Black Dao Yankuan also spread rapidly.
The reactions of the various separatist forces and charlatans have been mixed.
"Have you finally come out to dominate the world? Hey! At the beginning, I said that he had an artifact in his hand, and he was definitely not an ordinary person! ”
"Divine Sword King, a gangster in Yangzhou City also came out to claim the king, hey, it's really unpredictable!"
"What's wrong with the little gangsters? People have an artifact in their hands, and immediately turn over the salted fish! That's a magic sword! With it, the little gangster not only became a martial arts master, but also commanded thousands of troops! ”
"Divine Sword King? Hahaha...... Laugh to death! Is this going to a jousting tournament? Hum! Did the gangster forget who he was when he became a martial arts master? Dare to be the king and hegemon? ”
"People say that cutting the land is called the king, and there are Tang kings, Xia kings, Chu kings, and Liang kings in this world...... And even the King of Garuda, the King of the Divine Sword? Hahahaha...... It's a joke! How can anyone be called such a king? Think you can be a king if you have a broken knife? Alas! Gangsters are just thugs after all......"
Long Tao naturally paid no attention to the reactions of various forces, he settled the army, and after assigning the responsibilities of each person, he immediately crossed the river and went south to find Xie Yujing in Biling as the son of a double cultivator.
Under Xie Yujing's guidance, Long Tao took the pretty nun "mermaid" You Qiuyan of the Haisha Gang into his stay, and then took the Haisha Gang under his control.
After the Haisha Gang lost its backer after Yu Wenhua and the anti-Jiangdu, and then found Shen Faxing, who knew that when they went to deal with Kou Xu, they were stunned, and they were defeated by Kou Xu twice, and the damage was serious, and the gang leader Han Gaitian was seriously injured by Xu Ziling, and basically became a waste, and handed over all the help to You Qiuyan.
Although Kou Xu and the others did not kill many people from the Haisha Gang, they destroyed many of their ships, which greatly damaged the strength of the Haisha Gang, and their status in Shen Faxing's eyes also plummeted, so You Qiuyan had the idea of changing his backer or finding a few more partners.
Long Tao knew from the original book that in addition to buying and selling sea salt, the Haisha Gang also resold firearms in Jiangnan, and Li Jiancheng bought firearms from the Haisha Gang several times in order to harm Li Shimin.
Therefore, although the number of warships of the Haisha Gang has decreased greatly at the moment, in Long Tao's eyes, it still has some use value, and after all, it was one of the three major gangs along the coast, and many skilled shipwrights, sailors, etc., can help Long Tao.
What's more, this pretty nun, who was even more delicate and convex than Xie Yujing, took the initiative to send it to the door, so he naturally accepted it unceremoniously.
After staying in Biling for five days, arranging for the Dajiang Society and the Haisha Gang to continue to lurk outside of Shen Faxing's plan, Long Tao spent most of his time cultivating with the two women, taking the opportunity to improve their skills.
Five days later, Long Tao returned to Jiangyin, preparing to personally lead an army to expedition against the four great Kou in Jiangbei, firstly for the treasures that Cao Yinglong had accumulated for many years, and secondly, naturally to have a good relationship with Pegasus Ranch and prepare for buying war horses in the future.
At the pier outside Jiangyin City, he saw a huge ship with a special style from a distance, and Long Tao recognized that it was the "Piaoxiang" of the Dongming faction.
When the little leader guarding the city gate saw him, he hurried over, followed by two young and beautiful maidservants.
"King Qiyu, these two people are from the Dongming faction, and they said that Mrs. Dongming wants to invite the king on the boat." The leader of the gatekeeper bowed down to report.
The two little maids also saluted respectfully, and one of them said coquettishly: "Our lady said that it is inconvenient for her woman to show her face, and she wants to invite the prince of the divine sword to meet her on the boat. ”
Long Tao said with a smile: "It's okay, I also had a relationship with your wife, no matter what Yan said, he is also a person in the rivers and lakes, let's follow the etiquette of the rivers and lakes, we don't have to follow the rules of the king, and lead the way in front." ”
Following behind the two little maids, Long Tao stepped on the Piaoxiang for the second time and came to the big cabin where Shan Meixian saw him last time.
This time, the middle of the cabin was not separated by a bamboo curtain, Shan Meixian and Shan Wanjing sat in the main seat and waited, and when they saw him come in, they got up together to greet him, and Shan Meixian did not have the veil on her face from last time.
The treatment is obviously much better than last time, and being a king is really different!
Shan Wanjing wore a men's dress, a pair of beautiful eyes were as smart as before, which was unforgettable at first sight, and her two long legs made her look particularly tall and handsome as a man.
Shan Meixian is even more beautiful than her daughter, with thousands of demeanors, and her gestures unconsciously reveal a moving charm, which is really worthy of being the daughter of Zhu Yuyan, the "Queen of Yin"!
Long Tao sighed involuntarily: "Finally seeing the true face of Madame, Ling Zai is simply shocked!" ”
His tone exuded sincerity, and did not feel frivolous and abrupt.
Shan Meixian said with a smile: "Last time, I was in a hurry with Yan Shaoxia, but I didn't expect that when I met again today, Shaoxia had become the King of the Divine Sword, it makes people sigh when they think about it!" Oh, by the way, last time the little girl Wanjing was rude to the king, and she was offended, so please don't take the Divine Sword King to heart! ”
"Where, where." Long Tao stared at Shan Wanjing's beautiful and smart eyes, and said with a smile: "I believe that no matter who you are, after seeing Miss Wanjing's handsome appearance, no matter what anger you have, it will disappear." ”
Shan Wanjing listened to his words and laughed, slightly unhappy, only looked at him with big eyes and cold eyes, and did not answer.
Shan Meixian said with a smile: "The little girl has been spoiled by me since she was a child, and the Divine Sword King is open-minded, don't blame her for being rude." ”
Long Tao shook his head and said: "No, I think Miss Wanjing is just a person in temperament, and she disdains people who don't look down on her, at least she didn't scold her like last time, which shows that Yan is still making progress and is moving towards the kind of person who can be looked down upon by Miss." ”
"You ......" Shan Wanjing finally spoke, but she didn't know how to refute Long Tao's obviously deprecating words, her pretty face was flushed, but she was helpless.
Shan Meixian smiled and said: "I didn't expect that the Divine Sword King not only has an extraordinary bearing, but also has such a powerful word, no wonder he has the ambition of the world and can rise rapidly!" ”
Long Tao hugged his fist at Shan Wanjing and said, "It's just a joke with Miss, Miss Wanjing, don't be angry!" He turned to Shan Meixian again and asked, "I don't know what Mrs. is looking for Yan, what are you doing?" ”
Shan Meixian's eyes flowed, and she smiled lightly: "Naturally, it's about business, didn't the Divine Sword King say before he left last time, we can't do business when we join the faction, right?" ”
