Chapter 684: Triple Gate
"What? all the steppe people are in the city?" White Fang creaked as he grabbed the handle of the chair.
The news from the front reached the second layer, and the three families at the decision-making level of Eastern Chu City suddenly felt bad.
Ning Tao was puzzled: "How dare they enter the city like this?"
Chu Yingxuan pondered for a moment and said, "The grassland people have always had a problem, and that is the difficulty of supply. When they enter the city, they are cut off from supplies. They certainly don't kill themselves. Then, after all possible speculation has been eliminated, the remaining one seems quite reasonable. His gaze swept over Bai Fang and Ning Tao, "Our grain storage plan has been known to the grassland people. ”
White Fang frowned, "This can't be. ”
Ning Tao shook his head and said, "There is no impermeable wall in the world, even if we strictly prevent it from being blocked, there will be loopholes." ”
White Fang took a few deep breaths, he glanced at Li Mu, who was sitting on the side with his eyes closed, and he felt a tricky feeling again.
The city gate was breached, and the city of Eastern Chu encountered an unprecedented crisis. The Red Shark Gang shares weal and woe, and it can be said that it has poured out of the nest. After Redbeard's death, there were only about 3,000 people left in the elite of the Red Shark Gang. Except for the necessary men to guard the cave, all the others came to help.
The Hidden Red Lady personally led thousands of people as bait to lure out the forces left behind in the grassland camp. The second boss took care of his life, and led another 1,000 cavalry to detour to the wind channel and cut off the supply route of the steppe people. The two attacked from both sides, with the aim of annihilating the steppe people outside the city. This is also the usual way to deal with the steppe people.
It's just that this time the enemy has a different action.
The steppe people broke through the gate of Dongchu City, and after discovering the intentions of the Red Shark Gang, the steppe people actually abandoned the big camp outside the city and entered the Dongchu City. They closed the door and turned themselves into turtles in urns.
Yes, in Gu Xi's opinion, the behavior of the grassland people is definitely a stupid trick. "I gave up mobility and chose to defend where I wasn't good at it. Gu Ximing smiled at the camp left by the grassland people and turned it into a camp for the Red Shark Gang. At this time, he was discussing his next move with Yin Hongniang and Kong Xiaowen.
Although the Hidden Red Lady is the nominal leader of the Red Shark Gang and the thirteen leaders of the imperial court, Gu Ximing still sits on the top of the throne of course. Yin Hongniang and Kong Xiaowen sat on the left and right, looking more like the leader of the Red Shark Gang.
Gu Ximing pointed to Dongchu City and said, "Now we don't know the situation in the city, so we need someone to investigate." On our side, there is no more suitable character than Tang Yizhi. As he spoke, he looked at the Hidden Red Lady.
Yin Hongniang didn't answer, but said: "Tang Yi gave him and I have my own arrangements." If you're going to investigate, let's go with someone else. The northern suburbs of Lin are good. ”
Lin Beijiao in the mouth of the hidden red lady is one of Gu Xi's henchmen. He was first chosen by Redbeard for Sharktooth, and Sharktooth is the most powerful force in the Red Shark Gang. After Redbeard's death, Sharktooth was bought by Gu Xi's life, so he was able to be unscrupulous in the Red Shark Gang.
Here I have to talk about the situation of the Red Shark Gang.
After Redbeard's death, the Red Sharks went through a period of chaos. In the end, under the mediation of Gu Ximing, the Red Shark Gang is now faintly divided into three factions.
As mentioned above, during the Redbeard period, there were shark teeth among the Red Shark Gang. Si Mingtang, which is equivalent to the Nine Song Gang, is the most powerful force of the Red Shark Gang. The people here have enough strength to support a rebellious attitude. When Redbeard is there, he naturally uses his strong personality charm and wrist to subdue, making them the strongest knife in his hands.
But after Redbeard's death, his successor, Hidden Red Lady, did not have the power to control the knife. On the contrary, he spared his life and successfully used his means to buy the shark-toothed people into his own hands, so that they obeyed his orders. With shark teeth as the core, he recruited talents in Eastern Chu City and Qiangzhou, and his personal power expanded rapidly.
The Hidden Red Lady is the nominal leader of the Red Shark Gang and the heir of the Redbeard bloodline. This layer of identity makes the veterans loyal to Redbeard follow her. But these people have long been defeated by age, and they are far from the strength of their youth.
It's not that Gu Ximing hasn't thought about replacing it, it's just that there is a mysterious and powerful Tang Yizhi by the side of the hidden red lady. The relationship between Tang Yizhi and Redbeard, Gu Xi's life is still unknown. He only knew that after Redbeard's death, Tang Yizhi followed the hidden red lady, protecting him closely, and never leaving. Tang Yizhi's technique of figurines is strange and curious, and it is infinitely powerful. With his protection, Gu Xi's life can only sanitize the idea of killing the Yin Red Lady.
It is worth mentioning that in this operation, Tang Yizhi released the figurines and pretended to be the hidden red lady, and the real hidden red lady was protected in the box behind Tang Yizhi.
The people and horses used as bait this time are Kong Xiaowen's descendants, and most of them are composed of veterans of the former Red Shark Gang plus new income. In other words, it was also the team that Kong Xiaowen pulled up by himself. Kong Xiaowen is also a general in the redbeard period, and it can be said that he grew up watching the hidden red lady. He is loyal to Redbeard and even more loyal to the Red Sharks. Kong Xiaowen knew very well that the strength and means of the Hidden Red Lady were not enough to completely control the Red Shark Gang. But he didn't want to see the Red Sharks fall apart. So he has been reconciling the adhesion between Yin Hongniang and Gu Ximing, wanting to resolve their contradictions.
The three of them can't say that they have ghosts, but they are by no means the same heart. So it's easy for them to disagree on a certain decision.
Tang Yizhi is his biggest reliance, and Yin Hongniang will definitely not let him leave him. Gu Ximing also understood this, and he proposed to let Tang Yi go, which was nothing more than disgusting Yin Hongniang. "Yes, since the helper has spoken, then I will let the northern suburbs go. I only hope that those few people have not been killed by the steppe people, otherwise, we will be in trouble. ”
"We are outside, the grassland people are on the first layer, and the three families in East Chu City are on the second layer. In this way, the situation becomes complex and simple. Kong Xiaowen interjected appropriately, "The complexity is that the three forces are intertwined at this time, but it is simply more energy-consuming than whom. ”
"Dongchu City has shorted our due rations this year, if we don't have to rely on Dongchu City, the ghosts will come to save them. Gu Ximing scolded in front of him. "Well, now we're out there, and we're in control. In the current situation, we just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, watching the grassland people and the three families fight to the death. ”
"When the three are crumbling, we'll take action. No matter what, I want them to accept my great favor!"
