Chapter 61: The curtain opens
At the same time, in a corner of the Privy Council of Tongwancheng, in a low-rise bungalow with an ordinary appearance and blue tiles and white walls, the regent Hao Lian Aliluo, the warden of the underworld "Fat Yama" Su Dingsheng, and the first assistant of the Privy Council, Zhao Dingyi, and the "pear garden" and "gardener" Chong Heng were also drinking tea and greetings, talking and laughing.
In the next ten years, hundreds of carefully selected "Liyuan" spies were disguised as felons and sent from all over Kyushu to Tongwan City, like an invisible net cast into the underworld, quietly lurking.
A big drama is slowly kicking off.
******
The next day, the management office of the underworld posted announcements on nearly 100 bulletin boards in the underworld:
In order to celebrate the New Year's Day and pray for the health of the seriously ill King Hao Lian Kyushu, the Hades Management Office decided to hold the "Kyushu Congratulations, Seven Nights Prayer" activity, which held three grand parties for seven days and seven nights from December 29, Taijia 58 to January 3, Taijia 59......
As soon as the announcement came out, it was like thunder on the ground, and it quickly swept through the entire underworld.
The most discussed in private by the prisoners was the "night" of "seven days and seven nights" in the announcement, and everyone, including the jailers and prisoners, had a common question in their hearts: Is it possible to open the night ban for the underworld? This is the first time in decades that the factory has been built.
As a result, all kinds of gossip flew all over the sky, and some people even questioned whether the word "night" was a clerical error, just when everyone was discussing, on the evening of December 26, Taijia 58, the management office of the underworld made a more deviant and unbelievable move - a so-called "prayer wine" packaged in a red plastic bottle was distributed to each prisoner, and the prisoners were warned that they could only be sprinkled on the night of New Year's Day when worshipping heaven and earth.
"Spill?" When the prisoners first heard about this rule, they all took it as a joke, and some of the brave even took the "blessing wine" from the cafeteria and unscrewed the cap and drank it.
"Damn! It turned out to be Du Kang, a famous wine in Yuzhou! A prisoner who knew how to drink exclaimed, "What wine! At least five years! ”
Many prisoners also opened the lid and tried it on the spot, and many more prisoners did not open the lid until they were brought back to the dormitory.
That night, in the streets and alleys of the underworld, where there used to be only the smell of dust and engine oil, the smell of wine wafted for the first time, and more than 100 alcoholics who had gone crazy due to excessive drinking were captured by the jailers and thrown into the "little black room" to sober up.
The next day, the prisoners were pleasantly surprised to find that the red bottle of "prayer wine" was sold at a specific window in each canteen, ten silver coins a bottle, which was not too expensive, and the prisoners only needed to fill in the prisoner's number and name in a form to buy a bottle, so "buying wine for others" or "reselling prayer wine" quickly became the next new business in the underworld, and many business-minded prisoners also made a small fortune through this, which attracted the attention of major gangsters.
In the evening, more than 100 prisoners who had been locked up in the "little black room" the night before were released again, and there was no, and the jailers of the underworld, who were known for their harshness and violence on weekdays, were particularly gracious this time.
As a result, the number of prisoners who were thrown into the "little black room" by the jailers for excessive drinking swelled up that night swelled up to more than 500; Also that night, some brave prisoners found that you were sitting quietly drinking on the side of the street with a bottle of wine, and the night patrol of the jailer of the underworld turned a blind eye and did not arrest anyone.
On the night of the third day, there were many quiet and drinking prisoners in the streets and alleys of the underworld, and the prisoners soon found out that you wandered around the streets and alleys of the underworld at night, and as long as you didn't make a loud noise and made no fuss, the night patrol team didn't even care.
"Has the underworld changed? Or has the way of the world outside the underworld changed? "The eldest brother of a small gangster leaned against the railing of a high wall to watch the night view of the underworld, and he took a sip of wine, puzzled.
"Isn't King Hao Lian Kyushu still dead, the world outside may not have changed, what has changed should be the underworld," sitting next to him was a good brother who had accompanied the gangster brother for many years from birth to death, he sighed, "It's been more than ten years since I came in, it's time to change, what the fuck, brother, we have wine today and get drunk today!" Come! Drink! ”
The two of them touched the wine bottle with a "bang" and drained most of it in one go.
At this time, almost every prisoner in the underworld had a pair of "eyes" staring in the dark, and the prisoners' actions and words were quietly recorded and archived in detail.
From the fourth day onwards, the prisoners found it more and more difficult to buy alcohol than in the previous days, and before the canteen opened, the door was crowded with many so-called "professional wine buyers".
The reason was that a small leader of the "Cangzhou Gang" in Jizhou got off work late, and after rushing to the canteen, he saw that the queue in front of the liquor window was too long, so he went straight to the queue to buy wine, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the prisoners who were queuing up hard.
Although the two were immediately pulled apart, the Yongzhou prisoner felt that the little leader of the "Cangzhou Gang" was unreasonable in cutting into the queue to buy alcohol, and he made the first move in the process of quarreling, thinking that he had suffered a loss, and he could not swallow that breath, so he ran back to the dormitory and called a few fellow villagers, and intercepted the little leader of the "Cangzhou Gang" halfway through, and beat and kicked him.
This time, the two sides are concluded.
The small leader of the "Cangzhou Gang" who had been beaten was unwilling to give up, and immediately returned to the dormitory to gather more than 30 brothers of the "Cangzhou Gang" and directly broke into the dormitory of the Yongzhou people to seek revenge, but the few Yongzhou people did not know where to hide, and the small leader of the "Cangzhou Gang" who could not find anyone became angry with other Yongzhou people, and led the gang to beat and smash things when they saw people in the dormitory.
Soon more than 100 brothers from the Yongzhou "Qingma Gang" in Yongzhou rushed to the dormitory with murderous spirit, and more than 100 people from the "Cangzhou Gang" also rushed to the dormitory one after another, and a large-scale brawl was about to break out.
The Hades Management Office, which paid close attention to the development of the situation throughout the whole process, wasted no time in sending two armored vehicles full of jailers to arrive at the scene, unlike in the past, those jailers who came down from the armored vehicles slowly and were fully armed neither arrested nor driven away, and did not even have the intention of mediation, but just pulled up a long cordon outside the dormitory of the Yongzhou people, separated the people and horses on both sides, and then watched the show and smoked and drank tea next to the armored car, and the top of the two armored cars was installed with a live broadcast equipment with a 360-degree perspective. The on-site video signal can be transmitted back to the management office in real time, so that the decision-makers of the underworld can effectively control the on-site situation.
As soon as the people on both sides of the fierce looked at the posture of the jailer, they felt that the attitude of the management office of the underworld was very ambiguous, and they had a posture of standing by, which made the gang brothers on both sides who were ready to participate in the brawl muttered in their hearts, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the management office, so they instigated a few brave little minions to try to cross the cordon, but those little minions just approached the cordon and heard a few gunshots on the armored vehicle, and a few bullets hit the ground not far away and splashed dust more than half a meter high. Frightened, the little minions crawled backwards, and the prisoners immediately understood that the cordon was an insurmountable "chasm".
It's just that the "Cangzhou Gang" still occupies the dormitory of the Yongzhou people, and constantly scolds the Yongzhou people across the cordon, and the Yongzhou people are deflated, so they are willing to give up and retreat first to sweep their prestige, so they return the classic "Three Character Classic", so the people on both sides will swear and talk to each other across the cordon, and continue to gather people to strengthen their own momentum.
At about 21 p.m., nearly 1,000 gangs had gathered on both sides of the cordon, and the shouts and provocations of the gangs on both sides and the sound of the jailers shooting on the alert came one after another, and the number of jailers involved in maintaining order had risen to more than 500, the number of armored vehicles had increased to 10, the cordon had been widened to five, and the number of prisoners watching the excitement had reached several thousand.
The jailers of the underworld intentionally or unintentionally watched from the sidelines, causing the confrontation between the two sides to develop in an ever-expanding direction.
The "Qingma Gang" brought in the "Wuer Gang" to help, and the "Cangzhou Gang" was not to be outdone and brought in the "Jinmen Gang" to help; Soon, the people of Yongzhou brought the "Bangbang Army" in Liangzhou to strengthen the momentum, and the people of Jizhou brought in the "Taishan Gang" in Yanzhou to deal with it, just like the "refueling tactics" when the two armies faced off in ancient times, and the gangs attracted by the two sides became more and more famous, larger and larger, and more and more numerous.
Outside the field, the jailer's reinforcements also arrived one after another, and the number continued to increase, soon reaching 2,000 men, and in addition to 100 armored vehicles, five heavy anti-riot vehicles with 150 mm caliber chemical cannons were also transferred to the scene, and they were ready to fight.
As midnight approached, the whole situation became more and more severe, with the total number of gangs facing each other reaching more than 5,000, more than 10,000 onlookers and prisoners, and more than 4,000 jailers.
As the saying goes: the small ones attract the big ones, the big ones attract the old ones, the old ones attract the old immortals, and the inaction of the underworld management office finally forced out those gangsters who are very hidden on weekdays, and when the gangsters invited by both sides of the confrontation to come to help reached the top five gangsters in the underworld, things seemed to have taken a turn for the better.
Dormitory No. 105, not far from the confrontation between the two sides, was also inhabited by Yongzhou people before, but now the idlers and others have been cleared, and from time to time you can see groups of various service prisoners coming in and out, although the leaders are all wearing prison uniforms, but their expressions are arrogant and arrogant, or they are arrogant and striding meteors, or they are low-key and introverted and full of anger, in short, their bearing is different from that of ordinary prisoners.
Entering the dormitory, it can be seen that the beds, chairs, tables and stools have been moved to the side, vacating a large open space within a range of several feet, and in the center of the open space are kneeling the initiators of today's brawl: the small leader of Jizhou and the people of Yongzhou, one has blood on his mouth and nose, and one has dark circles around his eyes, as if he has just been "taught".
There are more than a dozen chairs on the east and west sides of the open space, and there are two slightly larger Taishi chairs on the north side of the clearing, the back chair on the east side sits on more than a dozen gangsters who support the people of Jizhou, and the back chair on the west side sits on the heads of more than a dozen gangsters who support Yongzhou.
After a while, the door of the dormitory was gently pushed open, and a young man with a delicate appearance stepped in first, he first bowed his hand to the surroundings, and then said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, please stand!" ”
The dozens of gang bosses in the seat stood up one after another, their expressions solemn, and the young man immediately stood sideways.
A sturdy middle-aged man with a sturdy face entered from outside the door first, this person was Yuan Shao, the big boss of the "Heaven and Earth Society", and behind him was a ruddy-faced old man, this old man was Wei Jin, the speaker of the "Hongmen", and both of them were godfather-level existences in the underworld gang.
The two walked straight to the Taishi chair in front of the open space and sat down separately, and then pressed down with the old man's hands, motioning for everyone to sit down, and everyone took their seats.
