There are many ways to defeat the enemy.

Surrendering without a fight should be the most clever method.

However, it is not so easy to be a soldier without a fight, and the method is not to mention that ordinary people can master it, and it is already very good to be able to come up with a feasible method.

Although it may sound extremely simple, in reality, it is almost impossible to do it. Because there is generally a deep hatred between the chaotic people, or there is a great conflict of interest. If it weren't for the fact that defeat was decided, or if there was no way out, most people would not bow down to their enemies. What's more, even if they have been defeated by the enemy, many people are still unwilling to admit defeat.

The Dongying Japanese Invaders had been rampant along the southern coast of the Yangtze River in the past, and the officers and troops of the court were already difficult to resist because of their war readiness. Even if there are some officers who have the heart to fight against the Japanese invaders, but they are suffering from the fact that the power in their hands is too small and the forces they can control are limited, they are naturally powerless.

In fact, among the officers and soldiers in various parts of the Yangtze River, there are also many righteous people, but almost all of them are middle- and lower-level officers and soldiers, and they hardly have much right to speak.

However, now the situation is different, another Jianghu alliance that is opposed to the Japanese Invaders, the Anti-Japanese Alliance of the Central Plains Wulin, has been formed. What is even more exciting is that this anti-alliance alliance has also received strong support from the court.

Although Dongchang in many things, like to play some power tricks in private. But in the face of such a major event, and the emperor and King Xiao are watching it very closely, the people in Dongchang generally don't dare to mess around. Even if they want to do some tricks, it is nothing more than to expand their influence and let more people return to Shundongchang.

Ren Xiaoyao became the leader of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and Dongchang Shi Gonggong became the supervisor of the imperial court's official army, and Wang Jinghao, the commander of Jinyiwei, and King Xiao's right-hand man, helped each other, and all forces worked together, so naturally no one dared to make trouble casually.

As a result, the Anti-Japanese Alliance of the Central Plains Martial Arts became the biggest enemy of the Japanese at sea for a while. Although the Fire Evil Sect's martial arts are extremely high, and his own power is also very great, this anti-Japanese conference initiated by Ren Xiaoyao, the number one master in the Central Plains, still makes him feel like a man on his back, and it is difficult to sleep and eat.

Indeed, when a person has been unscrupulous and suddenly encounters some obstacles, he is naturally very unhappy.

Therefore, the Fire Evil Sect and the Wakou Sect have been sabotaging the formation of the Anti-Japanese Alliance from the very beginning, and they have constantly sent people to make trouble. Although the alliance was finally formed, the Fire Evil Sect was not completely without gains. At least the largest sect in northern Jiangsu, the Star Sword Sect, did not join the Anti-Japanese Alliance, which greatly reduced the strength of the Anti-Japanese Alliance.

However, although the Anti-Japanese Alliance was temporarily formed, the Fire Evil Sect did not want to come forward in person for the time being. After all, he still has two important pieces at his disposal.

These two big chess pieces are undoubtedly the other two factions of the four major families of the rivers and lakes, the Temple and the Poisonous Beast Gorge.

The current strength of the Poison Beast Gorge is beyond doubt, after the fall of the Temple, it has become the second largest force among the four major families, second only to the Tang Sect. Moreover, the ghost is insidious and unscrupulous in order to achieve the goal. If you want to succeed, such an alliance leader is undoubtedly the best.

After the fall of the temple, the Fire Evil Sect and the Ghost Daozi had not taken it to heart. But they never imagined that they had all misestimated the strength of the temple at the same time.

In the last two or three months, Sheng Zhiqiang's martial arts have become extremely high, and the strength of the temple has also increased rapidly.

However, compared to the Poison Beast Gorge, the Sanctuary was still the second choice of the Fire Evil Sect.

If it is said that the Fire Evil Sect and the Ghost Daozi can be regarded as cooperation, then between the Fire Evil Sect and Sheng Zhiqiang, at most, can only be regarded as mutual use.

Moreover, the Fire Evil Sect was only temporarily unilaterally using Sheng Zhiqiang and the Temple's strength. Of course, the strength of the temple has not been fully restored, and Sheng Zhiqiang does not dare to openly make enemies of the court, so he can only act with the Japanese in private.

Another point is that although the temple seems to be incompatible with the × Pavilion of the ×, more importantly, the temple is still considered to be a famous and decent family in the rivers and lakes.

Although Sheng Zhiqiang has already appeared in Jiangnan, he has not yet expressed his support for the anti-Japanese rallies, nor has he openly expressed his opposition. At this point, Sheng Zhiqiang is smart enough, he wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

In fact, the rivers and lakes originally used each other.

The Fire Evil Sect and the Ghost Daozi can benefit Sheng Zhiqiang, and Sheng Zhiqiang can also use them in turn to expand the influence of the Temple, so that the Temple can return to its peak.

The anti-Japanese meeting was being held smoothly, even more smoothly than everyone imagined, and there was no wave at all. Shi Zhong is naturally the one who calls for the three armies, and Ren Xiaoyao becomes the leader of this righteous army. Whether it is Chu Wei's officers and soldiers, or the righteous soldiers on the rivers and lakes, he can dispatch them.

This time, Ren Xiaoyao's strength is naturally more than a hundred times stronger than before. In the past, Xiaoyao relied on Xiaoyaomen to fight against the Japanese invaders alone, and he could only always take a defensive position, just because of the lack of strength in his hands. Now the situation is different, Ren Xiaoyao already has the strength to confront the Fire Evil Sect head-on. Next, it depends on how they both schedule.

It's just that Ren Xiaoyao is still a little uneasy, or the temple and the Poisonous Beast Gorge.

The current rivers and lakes, the core of the struggle, are still the four major families.

The four major families in the rivers and lakes have been dominating one side of the rivers and lakes for decades, and no one obeys anyone. Although the relationship between Tangmen and Xiaoyaomen is slightly better, it is only temporary. Tang Mugong and Ren Xiaoyao are both old after all, and they have no ambitions.

Ren Xiaoyao became the leader of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and the heroes of the rivers and lakes were naturally very happy.

At this moment, the sound of horses suddenly roared outside the Xiaoyao Gate, and the voices of people were boiling, as if a large group of people were coming.

Ren Xiaoyao keenly felt that this seemingly ordinary anti-Japanese conference was finally about to give birth to forks. Of course, Ren Xiaoyao actually didn't believe it in his heart, the Fire Evil Sect and the Ghost Daozi had been making trouble a few days ago, and it was impossible for the Anti-Japanese Conference to be held so smoothly today.

It's just that now the strength of the Central Plains martial arts is also here, and it is impossible for the Fire Evil Sect to directly send people to fight head-on. He couldn't have been so stupid, and obviously he would have thought of something else.

Therefore, the more smoothly this anti-Japanese rally went, the more uneasy Ren Yao became.

At this time, a large group of people suddenly came at the door, but Ren Xiaoyao finally settled down.

What should come, always comes.

If you don't come, it will make people restless.

Since ancient martial arts gatherings, it is almost impossible to be calm. Because there is a truth that everyone understands on the rivers and lakes, as long as a certain martial arts event is held on the rivers and lakes, then most of the major events will happen on the rivers and lakes. Because of the usual major sects, they also have their own businesses to take care of, and there are many things to arrange, and it is impossible for many martial arts masters to gather together.

"Who's coming?" Everyone was curious.

The people outside the door did not come in for the time being, and seemed to be waiting for the people inside to go out.

Ren Xiaoyao knew that the people outside were not good, so he took the lead and went out.

But what everyone didn't expect was that the person outside the door was not a stranger, but a character recognized by most people in the rivers and lakes.

Although this person used to be famous in the rivers and lakes, he was still despised by others, thinking that he could not become a great weapon.

However, I didn't expect that this young man would become the head of one of the four major families in the rivers and lakes in a short time, and his status in the rivers and lakes would suddenly be as famous as Ren Xiaoyao, Tang Mugong and Ghost Daozi.

That's right, it must be the new lord of the temple, Sheng Zhiqiang, the eldest son of the Sheng family.

"Sheng Gongzi, why are you here?" Ren Xiaoyao just asked calmly.

Sheng Zhiqiang's dress today is finally normal, Shen Lingyu and Xiao Yurong are protecting the Dharma left and right, and the three of them are standing side by side on the horse, but they are also majestic.

"Ren's senior's vision is really superior, how can such a martial arts event not be accessible to the younger generation? This anti-Japanese conference was originally a righteous act of the rivers and lakes, so how could I miss my temple? Sheng Zhiqiang said bluntly.

A few days ago, Sheng Zhiqiang had friction with the people of the × Pavilion of Xiao×xiao Yao because of the incident of the gas valve, and he didn't want him to dare to participate in the anti-Japanese conference openly today, but this made everyone, including Ren Xiaoyao, not expect.

"You also deserve to come to the anti-Japanese meeting? As we all know, your temple has long been in collusion with the Japanese Bandits! Tianming couldn't help but scold.

"Brother Tianming, don't talk nonsense. You say that my temple is colluding with the Japanese Invaders, is there any evidence? My temple is also a sect with a head and a face in the rivers and lakes, so naturally it is impossible for me to do such a dirty thing. Sheng Zhiqiang's face was not red and his muscles were not accountable, but it made Tianming irrefutable.

Indeed, although everyone may have concluded that the destruction of the gas valve was done by Sheng Zhiqiang, no one has seen it with their own eyes. As for the collusion between Sheng Zhiqiang and the Japanese Bandits, there is no evidence at all, but just speculation by everyone.

Tianming still wanted to speak, but was immediately stopped by Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao then stepped forward and said generously: "It's easy to say! Since Sheng Gongzi wants to participate in this charity act, then we are naturally welcome. ”

If it comes, it will be safe!

Ren Xiaoyao also wanted to see what Sheng Zhiqiang wanted to do.

However, Ren Xiaoyao only found out now that he, Tang Mugong, Ghost Daozi and others had indeed underestimated this young man before.

Maybe his talent is really not first-class. However, once this young man becomes a trend, it doesn't seem to be as easy to deal with as everyone thinks. However, Ren Xiaoyao is more willing to believe that behind Sheng Zhiqiang, there may be a master to guide him.

Because it is obvious that when Sheng Zhiqiang first came to Jiangnan, he did not plan to come to participate in the anti-Japanese conference in China, but simply came to make trouble. Otherwise, he would not have waited until the anti-Japanese meeting was held halfway through, which was too late.

"It's still the old-timers who are generous! The younger generation is too late today, please Ying Haihan! Sheng Zhiqiang had to smile and salute back.
