Outside Sixiang City.
In a mountain village.
Gang leader Yan Tairan from the Far Soviet Union, Zhong Yizhu from Jiang Lingtang and others gathered together.
Sitting at the head was a man with a mask on his face.
The masked man looked around and said: "The three-way coalition has already approached Sixiang City. Once you provide them with enough food and grass, when they capture Sixiang City, it will be our turn to be rewarded."
"Sir, I'm worried that they will massacre the city."
Yan Tairan frowned.
He had something on his mind and felt very uncomfortable.
He joined this side many years ago, but he doesn't do it without asking for anything in return.
What he wanted was two things.
The first is power.
He wants to be a serious official and doesn't want to wander around the world.
Even though he became the leader of the Far Soviet Union, he was still a white man.
The second thing is martial arts secrets.
It is said that the secret vault of the palace contains world-famous martial arts secret books, many of which were inspired by the masters in the past when they were promoted to the master level.
He is not very interested in many well-known martial arts secret books, but he has longed for the master's insights.
At this level, what he wants most is to advance to the master level.
These two things have been promised and guaranteed by the superiors.
But if the coalition forces massacre the city, they may not be able to get any of those things.
"They won't massacre the city, Beili Tu promised me."
The masked man shook his head.
"Sir, what's the next step in your plan?"
Yan Tairan didn't hold on, but asked another question.
"When they capture Sixiang City, I will raise the banner of 'Qing Jun slays treacherous ministers' in Sixiang City, calling on the soldiers and horses of the world to besiege the capital and force Qi Xingyun to abdicate."
The masked man said coldly.
"I understand, sir."
Yan Tairan and Zhong Yizhu looked at each other.
They actually had some guesses about the identity of the masked man.
Those who dare to secretly accumulate strength and deploy a three-way coalition to attack Sixiang City must be members of the Daqi royal family.
Looking at the Da Qi royal family, there are quite a few who have this power, but very few have this motive.
Therefore, the most likely person is King Lu who fled after the rebellion failed!
The adult in front of me is definitely not King Lu himself.
The age doesn't match up.
King Lu was about forty years old, while the masked man in front of him was only twenty years old at most.
It is very likely that he is the eldest son of King Lu or another son.
But even if they guessed it, they wouldn't say anything.
Because they have already boarded this big ship, it is not impossible to get off the ship midway, but the price they need to pay is unbearable.
"How many troops can you use?"
The masked man continued to ask.
"Jianghu warriors are not as good as the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. We can bring out thousands of people, but only a few hundred can really fight. The others can only be regarded as first-time masters of fists and kicks."
Yan Tairan sighed.
There are many martial arts masters in the two sects, Yuansu League and Jiang Lingtang.
However, martial arts warriors prefer to fight alone. In front of the overall military formation, martial arts masters have little room to display.
"My lord, you know that no matter how high your martial arts skills are or how wonderful your moves are, on the battlefield, you will be stabbed by spears from all directions and you will not be able to use any of your moves."
Zhong Yizhu said.
"I don't expect you to take the lead. What you have to do is provide support and transport food and grass."
The masked man said calmly.
"It's no problem, we've been doing it."
Yan Tairan said.
As long as they don't get in front, it's still okay to play support.
…
Inside Sixiang City.
Ouyang Heng and Mi Qi, who had escaped from trouble, visited He Laowu.
He Laowu was very surprised when he saw Mi Qi.
In his opinion, almost none of the people taken away by Ding Ye left alive.
And now, Mickey is out of trouble, which is really a blessing from heaven.
Ouyang Heng and Mi Qi only stayed for a short while and then left.
They went to Wutong Temple.
When they arrived, they found that Master Jinghu was already waiting for them.
In the Zen room, Master Jinghu sat cross-legged, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, and recited a Buddhist verse.
"Two donors, the poor monk has been waiting for a long time."
"Have you gathered all the people in the world who can obey the imperial court's orders?"
Mickey asked.
"They have already stayed at Wutong Temple. Do you want to meet them?"
Master Jinghu asked.
"We're gone. We'll be leaving soon. We have other things to do."
Mickey said.
As the highest-ranking leader of the Hidden Guard in Sixiang City, they still have important tasks to do, especially when the coalition forces are about to attack Sixiang City, they have to race against time.
The final victory seemed very short-lived, but in fact it was the result of the previous efforts and the winning opportunities accumulated bit by bit.
"Okay, poor monk, then do your duty. We will maintain the order in the city when the enemy troops arrive."
Master Jinghu put his hands together and said.
"That's good. All the government officials who can be mobilized in the city have been mobilized in advance and are preparing to go to the tower to defend the city. The city can only rely on the master." Mickey nodded.
This is also something that cannot be done.
The business in Sixiang City is prosperous and the people are rich. Once the life of this person is easy, there will be fewer people who are willing to endure hardships and practice martial arts. As a result, there will be very few people who can be recruited in the city.
Now that the enemy's coalition forces are about to arrive, when the time comes, those hooligans, hooligans, and scoundrels in the city who usually don't dare to show up may come out and cause trouble.
It is even possible that the enemy's secret spies are hiding in the city, waiting for opportunities to come out to kill people and set fires, disrupting the situation and disturbing the morale of the army.
This requires someone to maintain order.
As for the Jianghu people recruited by Master Jinghu, they cannot fight in a real battle formation, but they can still maintain order in the city.
So far, Mickey has agreed to some conditions of the Jianghu people and given them enough benefits.
With the highly respected Master Jinghu as the leader, there would be no problem.
After chatting briefly with Master Jinghu and sitting for a while, Ouyang Heng and Mi Qi left Wutong Temple without stopping.
They did not return to the governor's house, but headed outside Sixiang City.
They quietly left the city through the secret passage, and then headed to a nearby landowner's manor.
What awaits them here is Ruyan.
"Is it integrated so quickly?"
When Ouyang Heng entrusted the local hidden guards in Sixiang City to Ruyan, he thought that it would take at least a few months for Ruyan to achieve anything.
But who would have thought that in just a few days, Ruyan would have already taken control of a large part of the hidden guards in the city.
"I'm telling you, sir, many hidden guards have actually been in contact with their subordinates for a long time. If I go with the token, I can establish a relationship with them."
Droopy eyelids like smoke.
There was one more thing she didn't say.
That is, those hidden guards are also human beings. Many of them have visited brothels. As long as they come to the brothel street, they will contact Ruyan by the way. After going back and forth, she knows the contact information of many people.
