214. Mobilize troops and encircle the Djinn Gang
Ningzhou,
In the entire Ningzhou rivers and lakes, the Giant Spirit Gang can be described as a real behemoth.
As one of the seven gangs that move the world, the name of the Giant Spirit Gang is not only Yan Kingdom, but also has a great reputation in other countries, and its business is all over the world.
Even the people from the six doors of Ningzhou, when they saw the people of the Giant Spirit Gang, they had to give some face.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the rivers and lakes, and the rest of the countries have more or less similar situations.
After all, these Jianghu sects are not small, and the imperial court will not easily grudge against them.
The Djinn Gang is not in the city, but in a mountain villa outside the city.
Built at the foot of a mountain, it covers a vast area, and not far from the mountain villa is a dock of the Djinn.
At this time, within the Djinn Gang, a meeting was being held.
In the chamber,
All the high-ranking members of the Djinn Gang were present, and one of them was Jin Hai, the hall master of the Djinn Gang's branch.
Although Jin Hai is not a strong person of the Law Elephant, he is a strong man of the Eightfold Primordial God, and looking at the rivers and lakes, he is not weak.
Among the eight branches of the Djinn Gang, this person is the strongest and has the most seniority in the gang.
In addition to him, there were also the hall masters of the other branches of the Djinn Gang, as well as the elders and high-ranking members of the Djinn Gang.
Below, a burly middle-aged man slowly turned the iron ball in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Great Elder, I don't know what is the matter with you urgently summoning me and others?" ”
The one who speaks is the owner of another branch.
Under normal circumstances, the eight branches of the Djinn Gang rarely come to the general gang, and they all stay in their own territory, and only come when they take stock every year.
This time, I got an urgent order from the gang, so I rushed back to the general gang.
It's just that he has been here for so long, but he hasn't even seen the face of the gang leader, which makes him a little suspicious.
Jin Hai smiled slightly, looked at an old man who was closing his eyes on the right hand side, and said softly, "Great Elder, it's time to clarify this matter." ”
Hearing this, the old man, who had been closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, opened his eyes, sighed lightly, looked at everyone, and said calmly: "I have summoned you here this time to help me do a big thing. ”
"It's time to choose a new leader."
"What!?"
As soon as they heard this, everyone exclaimed in surprise.
What's the situation?
Choosing a new Gang Leader?
One of them even got up directly and said excitedly: "Great Elder, what do you mean by this? ”
"The helper is still here, what you say is a big rebellion!"
Sun Hechuan has controlled the Giant Spirit Gang for so many years, so he naturally has some henchmen.
Everyone also looked at the Great Elder in surprise, not understanding what he meant.
The Great Elder is also an old man in the gang, how could he say such a rebellious thing.
"Ahem!"
The Great Elder coughed and said loudly, "Calm down!" ”
"The old man has asked the helper for his opinion on this matter, and the helper has taken the initiative to step down from the position of the helper."
"That's why a new leader is being elected today."
"I don't believe it!"
As soon as the Great Elder's words fell, the next person in the hall stood up and scolded angrily: "Unless you let the helper personally come forward to explain!" ”
"Presumptuous!"
The Great Elder suddenly snorted, a trace of anger appeared between his eyebrows, and he scolded: "Ma Lin, I know that you are the henchman of the gang leader, but do you think it is necessary for the old man to lie to you about this matter?" ”
"What kind of strength is the helper, if there is no helper's order, how can the old man say this!"
The deep voice instantly resounded throughout the lobby.
The crowd calmed down and was no longer as excited as before.
Indeed, the helper is a powerhouse of the law, and his strength is unique in the rivers and lakes, if there is no helper to instruct him, how dare the Great Elder say this.
It's just that they don't understand that the gang leader is obviously upright and in his prime, so how could he suddenly step down from the position of gang leader?
A branch hall master frowned and asked, "Dare to ask the Great Elder, what happened to the helper?" ”
"Why can't he come forward in person?"
This is also what everyone doubts, even if you want to choose a new helper, you can just come forward and say it, why bother.
The Great Elder said lightly: "The helper has an understanding and needs to retreat, so a new helper is selected to be responsible for the affairs of the gang in the future." ”
"You should also know that the position of the leader of this gang must always have a decision."
Naturally, everyone knew what he meant.
In the past, the gang leader had a son, and the position of the gang leader was clearly inherited by the gang leader's son.
Even if this violated the original rules of the Giant Spirit Gang, no one dared to say anything, after all, Sun Hechuan was the leader of the gang.
Now that the person is dead, the position of the leader of the gang should be chosen from among the many gangs in the gang.
It is said to be a helper, but in fact, it is to choose from the eight branch hall masters, which has always been a practice.
The people who were excited before suddenly became a little hot in their hearts at this moment.
In the past, Sun Hechuan, a strong man of the law elephant, was pressing, and no one dared to have other thoughts.
Now that the gang leader has been re-elected, can they also sit in the position of the gang leader?
The Great Elder glanced at everyone and said slowly, "So what we are going to discuss today is, who should sit in the position of the leader of this gang?" ”
The crowd fell silent for a moment.
Although they have their own thoughts, they dare not show it openly in this situation.
If any one of them comes forward, I am afraid that they will be refuted by the others.
They didn't even have the slightest preparation for this, it was too sudden.
Jin Hai coughed suddenly, got up and said with a smile: "Since everyone is reluctant to speak, then Jin is not talented, so he recommended himself." ”
"I wonder what you brothers think?"
Theoretically speaking, Jin Hai was the strongest among the eight branch hall masters, and he was indeed qualified to sit in the position of this gang leader.
It's just that everyone has selfish intentions, not to mention that there is no harmony between the eight major branches.
The previous Ma Lin suddenly sneered: "Jin Hai, the gang leader is a strong law elephant, I'm afraid your strength is not enough, right?" ”
"Spread the word, our Djinn Gang is afraid that we will be ridiculed by our colleagues in the rivers and lakes."
Ma Lin's words hit the nail on the head.
In the past, the Giant Spirit Gang was supported by Sun Hechuan, and Sun Hechuan was a strong law elephant, but now the new gang leader only has the strength of the Yuan Shen Realm, and spreading it will inevitably affect the reputation of the Giant Spirit Gang.
Their seven gangs in the world are somewhat unworthy of their name.
There was silence.
This is also the embarrassment of their Giant Spirit Gang, except for Sun Hechuan, a powerful magic elephant, no one in the gang can provoke the main beam.
Facing Ma Lin's questioning, Jin Hai said lightly: "Jin naturally knows this, but is the master of the Ma Hall qualified?" ”
Ma Lin's expression was slightly angry, and he was speechless for a while.
But even so, he didn't want Jin Hai to sit in the position of helper.
As long as these branch hall masters did not agree, then Jin Hai would never be able to sit in this position.
Jin Hai glanced at everyone and said slowly: "I have reached a cooperation with the third prince. ”
"The Three Princes have promised to support our Giant Spirit Gang, and with the help of the Three Princes, our Giant Spirit Gang will only be stronger than before."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts were suddenly shocked, and their faces were full of surprise.
No one expected that Jin Hai would say such a thing.
A smile appeared at the corner of Jin Hai's mouth, and he said lightly: "I think you have also heard about the affairs of the capital, right?" ”
"If it is done, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth."
It is no secret that the prince is in poor health.
There will always be a result in the dispute between the princes.
Ma Lin frowned and said, "The affairs of the imperial court, how can I and other gangs in the rivers and lakes be able to interfere." ”
"Have you ever thought about what if the three princes can't make it?"
Although it is tempting to follow the dragon's merits, the fate of failure is something they cannot bear.
Jin Hai sneered unabashedly: "How can it be a big thing if you are timid!" ”
"In the past, we didn't live a life of licking blood from the knife, but now it's just a different way of living."
"That's right, my Giant Spirit Gang is one of the seven gangs in the world, but in the end, it's just reckless."
"In the eyes of the imperial court, what is the difference between us and bandits?"
"I'm just trying to find a new way out for my brothers."
"If it is done, you and my descendants can all be officials in the court and enjoy glory and wealth for generations."
Jin Hai got up violently, looked at everyone, and said coldly: "Not to mention that in the future, as long as there is the help of the imperial court, my Giant Spirit Gang will still be one of the seven gangs in the world!" ”
In the face of the big cake painted by Jin Hai, some people were finally moved.
Of course, another reason is that there is currently no suitable choice for the owner.
No matter who is the leader of the gang, others will inevitably not be convinced, but will cause discord in the gang.
"Alright."
At this time, the Great Elder spoke: "I think it is very suitable for Jin Hai to be the helper. ”
"Do you have any comments?"
Ma Lin snorted coldly, but didn't say anything.
Half of these people are estimated to have been bought by Jin Hai a long time ago, and even if he opposes it alone, it is meaningless.
Jin Hai smiled, arched his hand at everyone, and said with a smile: "I will have to rely on you brothers a lot in the future." ”
Things went a little smoother than he thought.
As for the helper, he had already known about it from the people of the Third Prince.
The leader of a dignified gang actually went to the capital to assassinate Shen Du, such a person is not worthy of being a gang leader at all.
Once this matter is revealed, the entire Djinn Gang will suffer.
The reason why the elders of the gang were able to support him was also because they knew about it.
If there is nothing to do, Sun Hechuan is naturally still their helper, and if there is really something, they can also directly clear up the relationship.
With the identity of the three princes, it will not be too difficult for the court to compare.
The council ended, and everyone left.
……
Outside the boundaries of Ningzhou,
Shen Du's entourage, which had been running all the way, came to a stronghold with six doors.
This place is a bandit village, and there is a group of bandits entrenched in the mountains all the year round, known as "flying thieves".
In fact, this so-called "flying thief" is the person in the six gates, and he is also the nighthawk agent of the six gates.
This place is the closest place to Ningzhou, and it only takes half a day to reach Ningzhou City.
Although the imperial court has connived at the various major sects, it does not mean that they will give up surveillance.
This place is to leave a hidden stake in order to deal with similar situations.
When everyone came to the cottage, many people had gathered in the whole village.
Shen Du was secretly surprised.
There are thousands of these people, not to mention them, and judging by their strength, they should be the catchers of the Six Doors Headquarters.
All the way into the cottage, Shen Du saw many soldiers in armor, with a solemn face.
Inside the cottage hall,
It's already full at the moment.
On the left and right sides of the hall sat two burly men in armor, with a deep aura and an astonishing aura around them.
After Cui Jingsheng entered, a group of six door catchers saluted one after another.
And the two men in armor also arched their hands.
Cui Jingsheng did not sit down, but faced everyone and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness's decree!" ”
Everyone looked stunned and stood up one after another to show respect.
Cui Jingsheng's gaze swept over everyone, and he said loudly:
"The Giant Spirit Gang ignores the imperial court and defies the royal law, and its gang leader Sun Hechuan openly attacked and killed the imperial court officials in Beijing, and he should be punished for his crimes!"
"The Djinn Gang collaborates with the enemy and smuggles contraband, all the gangs will be arrested, and those who disobey will be executed on the spot."
Everyone's hearts were shocked, and their faces were full of shock.
It was only at this moment that they did not know the real mission of their coming here.
The order they received was only to go to this place secretly, and the details of the follow-up mission were not clear at all.
Among all of them, only the commanders of the Long Xiang Army and the Right Martial Guard knew about this mission.
Everyone stood up in unison and shouted in a deep voice: "Obey! ”
Although they were surprised by His Royal Highness the Prince's decision, they were not qualified to refute it at this time.
Even Long Xiangwei and Right Wuwei were dispatched, which shows their determination.
No one would even think of reporting to the Djinn Gang, if they really dare to do so, not only will their official position be lost, but even the Nine Clans will be implicated.
Cui Jingsheng, as the six door god catcher, is already the person in charge of this operation.
He successively gave many more tasks.
After Cui Jingsheng conveyed the order of the East Palace, everyone got up and left one after another and went to prepare.
In addition to Cui Jingsheng and Zhan Hongyan, the two strong people of the law, there are also the military General Long Xiangwei, the seven-fold powerhouse of the Yuanshen Ren Guangguang, the general of the right Wuwei, and the eight-fold powerhouse of the Yuanshen Song Yuanshan.
The two armies totaled 40,000 soldiers and horses, including 5,000 heavy cavalry.
In addition, there is also the East Palace enshrined, the strong man of the Nine Layers of the Yuan God, the "Tiangang Sword" Xu Daosheng.
This person was originally a person from the Daomen, and was later recruited by the East Palace and successfully enshrined in the East Palace.
As for the six gates, not to mention, the Jingzhong Headquarters secretly dispatched four Yuan Shen Realms, and as for the innate realm, there are even more catches above the innate realm.
It also mobilized the six doors of the nearby three states to divide the rudder and catch fast, forming a situation of encirclement of the entire Ningzhou.
A day later,
Many of the six gates stationed here have come down the mountain and headed for Ningzhou City with lightning speed.
The two guards who left Beijing in the name of suppressing bandits also appeared, and rushed to Ningzhou City.
Such a big action, even if it is well hidden, still attracts the attention of many people.
Everyone wondered, what was going on?
You must know that in recent years, Dayan has rarely raised troops again, and he also dispatched a large army when the Northern Barbarians went south the year before last and the Liangzhou rebellion.
In the entire Ningzhou, if anyone has such ability to deserve this kind of power from Dayan, then only the Giant Spirit Gang.
For a while, all kinds of news flew all over the sky.
It's just that by the time the news reaches the Djinn Gang, it's too late.
No matter how fast the news spreads, it will take time, and this time is enough for the army to arrive in Ningzhou City.
The two guards have formed a joint encirclement of Ningzhou City, and all the main roads leading from Ningzhou to the outside world are guarded, which can be described as impassable.
At this time, the entire Djinn Gang was completely panicked because of this news.
