Chapter 100: Declaration of War

Zheng Qian divided the entire battle plan into two steps.

The first part is to cut off the Luo family's outer wings, that is, Qinghe Wuwei in the open, and the back hand left by Luo Tianxiong in the shadows, as well as the counterattack of the power network that the Luo family has been operating and weaving for 20 years.

Originally, among the three wings, the Yongning Business Alliance was the most difficult to deal with, because it was a huge interest group.

But Luo Sanshao's various feats after he took the throne directly cut off the Luo family's 20-year operation.

This enabled Zheng Qian's entire battle plan to be greatly advanced.

After the first step is to cut off the wings, then concentrate on knocking on the Luo family forts to force the Luo family to give in, or expel them.

I have to say that this battle plan is a little rough, but it is indeed the fastest way to solve Luojia before spring ploughing and not delay the planting in the first quarter.

Zhou Shang was quite satisfied with this battle plan, but the only thing he didn't understand was that Zheng Qian didn't seem to plan to let him and Wang Gua join the war.

Brother Gua is an alchemist, and it is normal not to participate in the war, but the Five Emperors Dojo is a force group, so it is a little impossible to say if he does not participate in the war.

"Why isn't there a combat mission between me and the Five Emperors Dojo?"

Seeing that the combat meeting was about to end, Zhou Shang didn't hear the content of his work, so he asked puzzled.

"The Five Emperors Dojo is your industry, and the degree of participation in the war should be determined by you, not me."

Zheng Qian first explained the reason to Zhou Shang, and then gave advice: "But I think it's better not to involve too much in the Five Emperors Dojo in this battle." ”

"Why?"

Zhou Shang asked puzzled.

"This battle with Rocky, if there is no accident involved, is just a war of small intensity. With the current strength and arrangement of the firm, it is enough to take it, so the Five Emperors Dojo is the same. ”

Zheng Qian explained: "But if the unexpected factor intervenes, then even if the Five Emperors Dojo comes out, it will not help. ”

"What is the element of surprise?"

Zhou Shang asked.

"Some rotten and stubborn, but powerful thoughts."

Zheng Qian's tone was slightly disgusted, and there was also a little sarcasm: "The idea of dying is the most like a stable structure, it is difficult to accept changes, and there is always malice towards new things. ”

"But such a rotten thought, but thinks that he shoulders the function of balancing all things, and likes to bind the flowing freshness into a pool of rancid stagnant water."

Zheng Qian looked at Zhou Shang's eyes and said seriously: "The victory or defeat of the Qiankun Commercial Bank is just a small matter, the development of the Five Emperors Dojo and the Rapid Dan Dao is a big matter, I can't let you take risks because of small losses!" ”

"I see. The Five Emperors Dojo will not be involved in this battle. ”

Although Zheng Qian's words were cloudy, Zhou Shang completely understood, and immediately said: "But it shouldn't affect my own participation in the war, right?" ”

This outrageous brain circuit stunned several people who participated in the meeting.

"Once the ship sails down the river, it will move with the wind and waves, and how the shipbuilders move has no effect on the movement of the ship."

Zhou Shang said lightly: "I have only been a martial arts practitioner from beginning to end, and this kind of situation is an opportunity to verify my cultivation, and I can't miss it." ”

Hearing Zhou Shang's statement, although Zheng Qian was a little helpless, he could only nod in agreement.

As I said at the beginning, today's Zhou Shang is no longer a subordinate, but a partner and collaborator.

This escalation of identity is not nominal, the degree of participation of Zhou Shang and the goal of the battle are all determined by himself, and Zheng Qian will not interfere.

He only needs to care about the battle objectives on the side of the comptoir.

So Zheng Qian asked Lou Hong: "Yan Gang is gone, originally the two of them can only be done by the elder brother alone, will it be a little difficult?" ”

"What can be difficult?"

Lou Hong pursed his lips when he heard this, and said disdainfully: "Don't talk about that little secret, it is the Luo family's [Qinglian Sword Sect] and [Four Images Sect] that the two true inheritances came back, and they were also taken care of." Speaking of which, this Daoyuan Sect is really a bit blind, even a disciple like the Luo family wants it, is there no talent in Yongning Prefecture, and everyone is called to the sect? ”

"It's not just blind, rotten and foul-smelling, I haven't seen anything serious in hundreds of years."

Hearing Lou Hong's complaint, Zheng Qian's expression was indifferent, and he casually echoed: "It's already rotten!" ”

"Eh, I'm just complaining casually, but don't talk nonsense!"

Originally, he just vented casually, but who expected Zheng Gan's reaction to be so big, Lou Hong was so frightened that he hurriedly made up for it: "Daoyuan Sect is the leader of the Xuanling Righteous Path, not to mention far, twenty years ago, Yongning was in great drought, if it wasn't for Daoyuan Sect's super product to enter the WTO, then Yongning is afraid that there will be too many people starving to death." ”

"Making up for mistakes is also meritorious?"

Zheng Qian waved his hand in disgust: "Don't mention it, it's too angry!" Let's rescue the hired workers who were deceived first, and then declare war on the Luo family! ”

At this point, the pre-war meeting ended, and Zhou Shang did not leave after the meeting, but found Lou Hong as soon as possible.

"What are you going to do?"

Lou Hong looked at Zhou Shang approaching with ill intentions, tilted his head and asked.

"Give me a few goals!"

Zhou Shang pointed at himself with a smile and said bluntly: "Since Yan Gang can do it, I should be able to do it too!" ”

"You?"

Lou Hong was a little moved, and after looking Zhou Shang up and down, he still shook his head regretfully: "The strength is enough, but it is not suitable." ”

"How?"

Zhou Shang asked puzzled.

"On the one hand, there is too much movement when you fight, and on the other hand, you always want to have a few more moves with the master and see other people's martial arts!"

Lou Hong explained: "Originally, the removal of shadows was a matter of efficiency, but if the movement is too big and it becomes a startling snake, it will not be beautiful!" Yan Gang's [Gale Sword Style] is very suitable for assassination, so at the beginning when Lao Zheng asked me to recommend a master, I thought of him. Your martial arts are more suitable for head-on confrontation. ”

"Positive ......"

Zhou Shang smacked it and asked again, "Is there any master in front of the Luo family?" ”

"The Luo family has been running the strategy sect for twenty years, and the ones that are most deeply connected are the [Qinglian Sword Sect] and the [Four Images Sect], if there are any masters, they should be the disciples of these two factions."

Lou Hong thought for a while and replied: "Qinghe Wuwei has the shadow of these two sects of exercises, and he should be the disciples of these two sects. ”

"[Qinglian Sword Sect] and [Four Images Sect], do you have any characteristics of the exercises of these two factions?"

Zhou Shang asked with some excitement.

"The sword sect is swordsmanship, what else can there be, oh yes."

Lou Hong was disdainful at first, and then seemed to think of something: "In addition to the sword technique, the Qinglian Sword Sect also has a [Qinglian Sword Pill] secret technique, which is divided into three, six, nine, and twelve grades, which is quite fierce!" ”

"There aren't many kung fu that can make Commander Lou praise, it seems that this Qinglian Sword Pill is very good!"

Zhou Shang sighed and asked again, "What about the [Four Images Sect]?" ”

"I haven't fought before."

Lou Hong shrugged: "It is said that it is the kung fu of the Door Imperial Envoy Golem, but I don't know how it is." ”

After briefly introducing the two exercises, Lou Hong saw Zhou Shang's excited expression of eagerness, so he reminded.

"Hey, hey, you're the focus of the Luo family now, you can't be in a hurry! It's best to wait for the firm to officially declare war before starting at the same time, at least until I finish dealing with the shadows left by Luo Tianxiong. ”

"Okay Commander Lou!"

……

The crowd had expected that the operation to free the hired workers would be difficult.

Unexpectedly, it went unexpectedly well.

The Luo family's actions did not mean to carry people behind their backs at all.

Perhaps in order to make up for the number of slave laborers lost last time, the Luo family repeated their old tricks and came to Qiankun to recruit workers again.

Although the person is no longer the same person as before, and the reason for recruiting workers has changed, as soon as he saw this offer, his identity was quickly locked!

[One hundred and fifty dollars] every day's hired workers, do work that does not require any skills, a trick or a large piece, there is no such way to drop meatloaf in the world!

It is difficult for a warrior to disguise himself as a civilian, but it is very simple to have a target to deploy.

Let a few thoughtful guys in the trading house pretend to be homeless to work.

In fact, there is no need to pretend, because these guys were homeless before, and everything is ready-made.

The appearance of his true colors did not arouse any suspicion among the recruiters, and after recruiting a sufficient number of workers, the hired workers were led to secluded places outside the city.

The monks who had been lying in ambush jumped out and were about to repeat their old tricks, but they were surrounded by the guards of the trading houses.

When the number of cultivators was invincible, the gang of cheating workers and slaves was quickly taken down.

Following this line, the comptoir soon rescued all the hired workers who had been abducted.

Of course, the actions of Qiankun Commercial Bank naturally caused the Luo family to be very dissatisfied.

Tricking the displaced people into slavery is a tacit means of increasing production between the Yongning family.

Just allow Qiankun to use homeless slave labor, not allow the family to use homeless slave labor?

The act of rescuing the hostages of the Qiankun Trading Company, in the eyes of the third young master, was actually a struggle for slave labor.

What else is polite, I was about to organize a slave catcher team to fight back, but I was stunned by a series of heavy news!

[Qiankun Trading House demanded that the Luo family immediately release all slave laborers]

[Qiankun Commercial Bank demanded that the Luo family compensate for "cheating workers as slaves"]

[Qiankun Commercial Bank asked Luojia to stop selling salt water, forcing farmers to irrigate and affect the base fertilizer of the fields]

Since the establishment of the Business Alliance, only the Luo family has asked for the share of others, and no one else has asked for the Luo family.

Several propositions of Qiankun Commercial Bank were undoubtedly a blatant declaration of war against Luo's, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the people of Yongning.

After all, in the hearts of the vast majority of people, Qiankun Commercial Bank is just an outsider, and there is no comparison with the Luo family, which owns four markets.

Not only ordinary people, but even the family was a little puzzled when they heard this series of news.

Before the end of the year, there will be a war?

Zheng Qian's head is faint?

When Third Young Master Luo heard the news of the Qiankun Firm's declaration of war, the first thought that popped into his mind was not nervous and angry, but funny.

"A declaration of war? Just rely on Zheng Qian, a clay-legged foreigner? ”

Luo Sanshao sat in the middle hall and said to his subordinates: "Inform the members of the business alliance that each family will send one middle grade, and twenty people will come to answer the call, and this young master will crush the Qiankun business house tonight!" ”

The call for wind and rain during these days made the third young master very confident in his order.

But he was soon slapped in the face, and the third young master recruited soldiers all over the city, and there was no one to help him.

"It's really unfortunate that the masters of our clan have been sent out to open up trade routes, since the three young people have lives, I will summon them back!"

"With the strength of the Luo family, it is not easy to dispose of a Qiankun commercial bank, and our strength is dispensable."

"The third young master is really joking, as soon as Qinghe Wuwei comes out, who will compete, where do we need help."

or procrastination under the pretext, or touting and refusal, even if it is regarded as a few henchmen, it is also procrastination after receiving the order.

The only ones who really brought people to Ying Mao were the Gongsun family, as well as a few unknown clans in Yongning.

There are more than ten people entering the product scattered, and the scale of the force is not even comparable to that of medium-sized gyms.

"Good, good, good!"

The third young master would not believe in the great clan, and he couldn't even draw this bit of force, and instantly realized that the reason why these people were perfunctory was because of Zheng Gan's proposition, which was more in line with their interests.

This is a naked betrayal, the third young master ordered angrily: "Inform the commander of Luo Qing, gather the Qinghe Wuwei, first destroy the Qiankun Commercial Bank, and then the family that refuses to apply tonight, sweep over one by one, this young master wants to see if what they said is true!" ”

Qinghe Wuwei was originally the secret guard of the Luo family, but since the third young master took charge of this army, the secret guard has also become a bright guard.

The original methods hidden in the shadows were all abolished, and the third young master simply recalled this martial guard to the Luo's group of forts to facilitate scheduling.

Therefore, the order came out of the main hall, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the three middle-grade commanders, with more than 100 Qinghe military guards, had already gathered.

Cultivators who wore uniform cyan robes, or held swords, or carried huge packages like rock pillars, were the third young master's greatest confidence.

Luo Qing and the two commanders led the guards out of the Luojia Fortress and went to the west city.

……

The conflict between Qiankun Trading House and Luo's clan was very loud, and even in the Five Emperors Dojo outside the city, all kinds of discussions could be heard.

For Zhou Shang, this was a signal to make a move, and he originally planned to go down the mountain alone.

Until a group of dojo students came to the front to ask for leave with uneasy faces.

"Owner, we want to go down the mountain to help Qiankun Commercial Bank fight against the Luo family."

The leader was named Tan Yong, and after clarifying the purpose, he cautiously asked: "Will this affect the Dao Hall?" ”

"It's safe to go up the mountain, but you're going down to participate in an unrelated battle?"

Zhou Shang didn't return, and asked everyone rhetorically, "Why?" ”

"I joined the Qiankun business house to come to the mountain to practice, and now the business house is in trouble, I can't sit idly by."

"My mother lives in Qiankunji, and she wants me to help Boss Zheng, otherwise she won't recognize me as a son."

"My daughter-in-law was found with the help of Zheng Fu's shopkeeper, and both of them now live in Xicheng ....."

The cadets answered the question of why they had to go to war.

"It just so happens that I'm going down the mountain to join the battle, so let's go together."

……

The main hall of Luofu

Most of the core members of the Yongning Luo family gathered here, accompanying the third young master to wait for the battle report of Qinghe Wuwei.

said that it was a battle formation, but he couldn't see the nervousness on the faces of the Luo family, but he talked and laughed.

Everyone thought that the so-called battle in front of them was just a formality, and the Qinghe Wuwei was out, and when it was dawn, it would be a big victory.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a Qinghe military guard to run back to report the news, but what he brought back was not a triumphant message.

"Oh no, Third Young Master, our people have been sniped by the people of the Five Emperors Dojo!"

Before the third young master could digest the news, another disgraced martial guard ran back.

"Oh no, Third Young Master, Zhou Shang turned into a golden Buddha of several zhang, and he seriously injured our people with one palm, and now he is coming this way!"
