Raging Tide City looks normal on the surface, but the dark tide is surging.
Because of a terrible rumor.
Xuanwu Marquis Jin Zhuo was already dead and was assassinated by Wu masters.
At first, many businessmen scoffed at this rumor.
Are you kidding me?
Marquis Jinzhuo was originally a martial arts master, and there were many masters around him.
If you want to assassinate him, unless you dispatch a grandmaster-level powerhouse.
But which grandmaster in the world is willing to be an assassin?
This is true in some sense.
At least the six great masters of the Yue Kingdom did not accept any dispatch from the government at all, and basically drew a clear line.
If Li Qianqiu was not trying to save his wife, he would never have followed Shen Lang's words to assassinate Su Nan.
And it's not the first time that rumors like Jin Zhuo's death have spread, and everyone won't take it seriously.
But gradually, many people felt that something was wrong, because Marquis Jinzhuo did not show up for a long time.
As the Lord of Raging Tide City, it is not normal to not show up for three days.
In the following time, Jin Shiying, who was nominally the City Lord of the Raging Tide, appeared on behalf of the Xuanwu Marquis Mansion.
His face was expressionless, and he couldn't see joy or sorrow at all. It was impossible to get the life and death status of Xuanwu Marquis from him.
But there is one signal that is very clear.
The fleet of the Xuanwu Marquis's Mansion shrunk in an all-round way, some returned to the Wharf of Raging Tide City, and some returned to the Jin Family Wharf in Tiannan Province.
The sea caravan of the Tiandao Society has also officially stopped sailing.
This is absolutely abnormal.
The Tiandaohui trade fleet is a sea of gold and silver every day, why did it suddenly stop sailing?
Something must have happened.
Therefore, many people speculate that Jin Zhuo, the Marquis of Xuanwu, may have really been assassinated.
And at this time.
Xuanwu Marquis Jin Zhuo appeared again, but at a long distance and in armor.
It's good that he didn't show up, but his appearance caused a lot of speculation.
Xuanwu Hou seems to be really dead, otherwise why send a substitute to come forward?
Not normal, very weird.
………………
Is Jin Joo dead?
Zhuo Zhaoyan was not sure, because Ku Touhuan did not come back to find her.
There are two possibilities for this.
The first possibility is that Ku Tou Huan failed to kill Jin Zhuo, so he was ashamed to come to see her.
The second possibility is that Ku Tou Huan had already killed Jin Zhuo, but he regretted it very much afterwards and felt that he had done something wrong, so he dared not come to see her.
Whether Jin Zhuo is dead or not is especially important for the next situation.
But regardless of whether Jin Zhuo is dead or not, Raging Tide City must be fought.
Yin Yuan will be determined to win the Raging Tide City.
Because of the glass mirror, the Tiandao Society has regained a lot of trade initiative, and the Yinyuan Society has suffered huge losses.
The fall of Raging Tide City made Yin Yuan even worse.
Today's Raging Tide City is not just a trade center in the eastern seas of Yue Kingdom. I heard that there is a secret workshop under the big castle, specializing in making glass mirrors.
This is too important for the hidden element.
Either way, the city of Raging Tide must be captured.
But if Jin-joo is dead, it will be easier to capture Tide City.
…………
Raging Tide City is still the same as before, a city of freedom.
That hasn't changed after the Kim family seized control of the city.
The city still has no walls, and any merchant can still do business.
As a result, the city is naturally extremely prosperous.
But it's also a mixed bag.
You have no idea who is behind these shops.
Inside a leather-covered basement sanctuary.
Zhuo Zhaoyan secretly met Shu Tingyu, the secret envoy of the Yinyuan Society.
"Ku Tou Huan didn't come back to find me, so I can't be sure whether he killed Jin Zhuo or not."
Shu Tingyu was silent.
Zhuo Zhaoyan said, "Jin Mulan is not good at hiding her emotions, do you want me to go to Xuanwu City?"
Shu Tingyu shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not. This matter is too big, and His Royal Highness must not be involved in it."
Capturing Raging Tide City is the strategy of the entire Yinyuan Society, but supporting the Prince of Yue is the biggest strategy of his Shu family.
Shu Tingyu said: "The 30,000-strong army has been assembled. If Jin Zhuo is dead, he will fight this battle. If Jin Zhuo is not dead, this battle will still be fought."
Thirty thousand troops?
30,000 troops were used to attack Raging Tide City?
Where did the 30,000 troops come from?
Zhuo Zhaoyan said: "Prince's secret information, Tiandaohui has already sensed the danger before, and is sending warriors to Raging Tide City continuously."
More than that?
This is a huge game of chess.
The army of Chu State created disputes on the border, and the army of Zhong Yao was facing a great enemy.
At this time, the border between Chu and Vietnam is heating up every day, and more than 200,000 troops are constantly confronting and approaching, and a war may break out at any time.
South of Tianxi Province.
The 40,000-strong army of the new Qiang King Alutai has set out and will soon enter the territory of Yue.
Su Nan's 20,000-strong army has been assembled.
Once Su and Qiang are united, the two armies will join forces, and they will be a giant of seven or eighty thousand.
In an instant, the sky and the earth were torn apart, and within a month at most, the southern part of the Tianxi Province of Yue Kingdom would fall.
North of Vietnam!
The monarch Ning Yuanxian has already arrived at Ueno City, and he is driving himself to expedition.
He not only emptied the tens of thousands of troops from Nangong Ao, the residence of the Great General of Zhenbei, but also transferred more than half of the Bian Xiao army from Yanzhou.
It is completely the posture of fighting against the King of Wu.
At this time, the eyes of the whole world were completely focused on the border of Wu and Yue.
After all, this is a decisive battle between two kings.
In the southern part of Vietnam, Pingnan General Zhu Lin has been desperately shrinking the line of defense and sticking to the capital of Nanhuo.
Jin Jun took the opportunity to take the sand barbarian army frantically to regain lost territory.
For the country of Vietnam, it is really an ambush and a crisis on all sides.
Who would have thought that the fuse of this fatal crisis was Su Nan alone?
The Emperor of the Dayan Empire has sent three waves of messengers to the camps of the Kings of Wu and Yue, respectively, to exhort the two to put peace as the most important thing.
Of course this superficial work is to be done?
Although the Emperor of the Dayan Empire wished that these countries would become a piece of shit.
The new policies of other countries are true and false, but the new policies of the Dayan Empire are real, not only against the old nobles, but also against civil and military officials.
The scariest thing is!
The New Deal of the Great Yan Empire is coming to an end.
Once the New Deal was completed, the power of the entire empire rested with the emperor.
By that time, the nations of the world would not even have the courage to look directly at the emperor.
Closer to home.
At this time, the Kingdom of Dayuet had become a huge chessboard. Several chess games seemed to be isolated, but in fact they were completely entangled.
For the battle of Tide City.
Even more, the arrow is on the string, and it has to be sent.
Shu Tingyu said, "Do you know how much money Ning Yuanxian borrowed from our Yin Yuanhui?"
Zhuo Zhaoyan said, "How much?"
Shu Tingyu said: "2.3 million gold coins."
Zhuo Zhaoyan took a deep breath.
Borrow so much money in one go?
It doesn't sound like a lot. After all, Yin Yuanhui once lent Count Jin Yu one million gold coins in one go, and Tiandao Society also lent Shen Lang one million gold coins.
But they are all mortgaged with real property, so don't worry about not coming out.
However, the monarch Ning Yuanxian borrowed money from Yinyuanhui, but there was no real asset mortgage.
The key is that he has borrowed a lot of money before, and he has borrowed so much more without paying it back.
Shu Tingyu said: "In order to capture Raging Tide City, the lobbying fees and military expenses paid by our Yin Yuan Club together add up to more than 1.5 million gold coins."
Hearing these numbers, Zhuo Zhaoyan's scalp felt numb.
Yinyuan will be super rich, but it is in the territory of Yue, and its net profit will not exceed one million gold coins a year.
"So in the battle of Raging Tide City, the arrow is on the string, and it has to be sent. Jin Zhuo will fight even if he dies, and Jin Zhuo will fight even if he doesn't die."
The Yin Yuan Society had already paid for the military expenses of the 30,000-strong army a month ago.
"Okay, your mission has been completed, and it's up to me to determine whether Jin Zhuo is dead." Shu Tingyu said lightly.
Zhuo Zhaoyan was stunned.
What else can Shu Tingyu do?
………………
Zhuo Zhaoyan is gone!
Shu Tingyu ordered: "Activate the snowman, I must get the confirmation message whether Jin Zhuo is dead!"
The subordinates were startled.
The snowman is a deep chess piece that Yin Yuanhui lurks in the Jin family.
never used.
Even when Qiu Tianwei attacked Wangya Island before, Yin Yuan felt that he was sure of everything, and he never used this undercover agent.
Now it's finally going to be enabled.
It seems that the situation has indeed reached a critical moment.
………………
After half an hour!
In a shop not far from the main mansion of Raging Tide City, a brand new sign was hung up, a snowman with three claws, one eye open and one eye closed.
Of course this hardly caught anyone's attention.
Because this shop sells all kinds of alcohol, and in the hot summer, they also sell iced sour plum soup. Isn't it normal to use a snowman as a signboard?
Moreover, the shops in Raging Tide City are very trendy, and some shops change their signs every time.
After everyone saw the snowman's new signboard, they thought the snowman was quite interesting.
And someone on the big castle of Raging Tide City Lord's Mansion, after seeing the new sign of the snowman on the high city wall, his eyes shrank slightly and his heart trembled.
Has the day finally come?
finally come!
It's good to come.
………………
at dusk!
Yinyuanhui Shu Tingyu met the snowman who had been undercover in the Jin family for a long time.
Of course it can't be called seeing.
Because the two were talking through a thin wall.
Shu Tingyu still didn't see his face.
This is also a kind of protection, lest there will be even the slightest flaw when meeting on another occasion.
The other party's voice was hoarse, and the original voice could not be heard at all.
"Has the snowman on Daxueshan turned?"
"No, but the Great Tribulation Palace is about to collapse. I broke two of the Snowman's toes, and now there are only three left."
The two people finished matching the password. This password is unique, and there is absolutely no possibility of impersonation.
Shu Tingyu asked, "Is Jin Zhuo dead?"
The other party thought for a while.
Shu Tingyu said: "This answer is very critical, and it is completely related to the deployment of the Yinyuan Society in the future."
The other party said: "I haven't seen the body of Marquis Jinzhuo. I haven't seen him for several days. But I saw An Zaishi's body being carried out. Although it was very secret, I found it, because it was necessary to past my eyes."
Shu Tingyu said, "Is this person very close to Jin Zhuo?"
The snowman said: "We are always together, and any food that Marquis Jinzhuo has must be inspected by him."
Shu Tingyu said, "Did you see the night the assassination happened?"
The snowman said, "No, I wasn't there at the time. When it was my turn to take up the post, I never saw Marquis Jinzhuo again."
Shu Tingyu said, "Is there no reason?"
Snowman said: "There is no reason."
Shu Tingyu said, "Isn't there a word about the assassination case?"
Snowman said: "No."
Shu Tingyu said, "What's going on at the Xuanwu Marquis' Mansion?"
Snowman said: "Jin Mulan secretly entered Raging Tide City."
Shu Tingyu said, "Jin Mulan is here?"
Snowman said: "Yes, it is still kept secret from the outside world."
Jin Mulan actually came to Raging Tide City.
This is so abnormal.
For a long time, Jin Zhuo guarded Raging Tide City, and Jin Mulan guarded Xuanwu Marquis Mansion.
The Marquis Mansion is the root of the Jin family, and now Jin Mulan has abandoned the Marquis Mansion and came directly to Raging Tide City.
Shu Tingyu said, "Did she look sad when she came?"
The snowman fell into memory, then shook his head and said, "No, but full of doubts."
Shu Tingyu closed his eyes.
That's right, that's right.
Marquis Jinzhuo is dead, but completely hidden from the outside world.
The warriors of the Tiandao Society kept coming, and all the trade ships were almost completely out of service.
Jin Mulan secretly entered Raging Tide City, but even she did not know that Jin Zhuo was dead, because she was not good at disguising, and it was easy to see her flaws.
Let her come to Tide City to preside over the overall situation.
The snowman said: "I have to go back quickly. I am too important in the castle. If I leave for more than half a quarter of an hour, I will be noticed."
Shu Tingyu said, "Will they suspect you?"
Snowman said: "How is that possible? I am the most trusted person in the Jin family, and even I think I am the loyal dog of the Jin family."
Shu Tingyu said: "Then you go back first and be ready to accept our new orders at any time."
The snowman hesitated for a moment and said, "How do you plan to arrange for me afterwards?"
Shu Tingyu was silent for a moment and said: "I can make a lot of hype for you, even the title of the title. But in fact I can't be completely sure, because the situation is very complicated, this is a very big situation, there are many Big player."
The snowman said silently, "I understand."
Shu Tingyu said: "But I can guarantee that you are alive. The Jin family is destined to be the first burial of this big conspiracy. No one in the world can save the Jin family."
The snowman is silent.
Shu Tingyu said: "But in the next few years, we will arrange for you to enter a higher and larger position, and that will be your chance to soar."
The snowman got up and said, "Farewell."
Then, he left directly.
………………
Shu Tingyu was right.
At this time, the whole country of Vietnam was a big chessboard.
For the monarch, the two most important chess games are one in the north and one in the west.
Raging Tide City is very important to the Jin family, but it is far less important to the monarch.
His attention wasn't even on Raging Tide City.
At this time, he was engrossed in the game with King Wu.
Decisive battle, decisive battle!
Royal expedition.
The battle of the nation's fortune, the war of the nation's fortune.
Ning Yuanxian shouted the slogan loudly.
The battle situation on the Nanwu Kingdom was even suspended directly, and Yao, the Western Army, got the will and could not hold on to it.
Ning Yuanxian directly borrowed 2.3 million gold coins from the Yinyuan Society as the military expenses for the decisive battle of the imperial expedition.
The Hou Nangong Ao of Zhenbei had several tens of thousands of troops, and Bian Xiao had a total of 100,000 troops, but Ning Yuanxian transferred 60,000 troops.
The remaining 40,000 troops were completely stretched to defend Yanzhou.
I heard that Bian Xiao smashed the table directly, which shows how angry he is.
The most dangerous place in the entire Yue Kingdom is Yanzhou, and now Ning Yuanxian has transferred half of the main force of Yanzhou.
At this time, the entire Tianbei line of defense, the country of Yue displayed a hundred thousand troops.
Completely a posture of going to the battle of the country.
The young King Wu also seemed to be shocked. He didn't expect Ning Yuanxian's reaction to be so intense.
He just won Ning Yuanxian in the border hunting first, and then led 30,000 troops south to approach Ueno County for provocation.
He is completely covering up for strategic breakthroughs in other directions.
But he did not expect that Ning Yuanxian would be directly angered, and that he would go so far as to lead a decisive battle against the country.
Not only that, the generals under Ning Yuanxian's command, Nangong Ao, Marquis of Zhenbei, Ning Qi, the third prince, and Wu Zhaozhong of Jing'an all gathered under the royal family.
The capital of the country was completely thrown to the prince, and the prince who had just supervised the country, once again supervised the country.
Of course, the young King Wu didn't want to fight decisively, but if Ning Yuanxian was mad, of course he could only fight.
Therefore, in desperation, King Wu could only desperately assemble an army towards the Wu-Yue border.
But he would never take the initiative to attack, because the rebellion on Su Nan's side was imminent, and after the army of Su Qiang entered the Tianxi Province of the Yue Kingdom, it would be the best opportunity to divide the Yue Kingdom.
within half a month.
The two great kings assembled more than 200,000 troops on the border.
When they were closest, the two great kings were no more than five miles apart, facing each other from afar.
………………
Move the game to the west of the Dai Viet Kingdom.
Shen Lang led more than 200 warriors and rushed into the main city of Baiye County.
Then, the most sturdy group of the marauders behind him also rushed in frantically.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
"Kill all, burn all, rob all!"
This group of people roared wildly, holding all kinds of weapons, and madly rushed into the main city of Baiye County.
This group of looters were extremely ecstatic and excited.
Finally came to this big city, and finally can indulge in looting.
"Brothers, rush into all the shops and grab everything."
"Grab money, rob treasure, and rob women of happiness."
Shen Lang's expression changed, and he shouted: "I ordered before that only the shops of the merchants in the Western Regions can be looted, and the shops in our Yue Kingdom cannot be looted. You can kill the Western Regions warriors, but you can't kill the merchants in the Yue Kingdom, let alone rape/humiliate. any woman."
This is indeed the iron law set by Shen Lang before.
"Hahaha..." The leaders of the raiders laughed loudly: "City Lord Shen Lang, it's this time, do you think you can still control everyone? Don't be delusional, this is the last city we hijacked, You have opened the gates for us, and you are useless now."
"Yeah, if I were you, City Lord Shen Lang, I would have to flee as soon as possible, as far as possible, because we are afraid that we will be unable to control and arrest you and dedicate it to Lord Su Nan."
"Brothers, this little white-faced city lord still wants to control us, and also wants to stop us from looting and stop us sleeping girls, do you think we will agree?"
"No promise, no promise!"
"The little white-faced city lord dares to block us, so he will kill him, kill him!"
Many crazy gangsters roared.
At this time, it is very simple to distinguish the composition of this group of people. The group of people rushing to the front must be local gangsters, gangsters and thieves, because they are the most daring.
"City Lord Shen Lang, get out of the way quickly, don't delay our fortune, don't delay our sleeping girls, or we will kill you too!"
"Get out, get out!"
More and more looters poured into the city gate, more and more.
Hundreds of people, thousands of people.
They all waved the machetes in their hands like crazy.
The city of flowers is just around the corner, countless shops are waiting for them to loot, and even many white women are waiting for them to sleep.
Now Shen Lang still wants to suppress them?
Dreaming?
"Little white face, get out of the way, or we'll put you to sleep."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Shen Lang looked deeply at the group of people.
With a wave of his hand, he said, "Let's go!"
Immediately, the more than 200 riders behind him all moved away.
"Hahahaha..." Many looters were overjoyed.
"This little white-faced city lord really has a silver-like pewter head, and it's useless at all. He shrank when we were scared."
"Crush, rush, get rich."
"Grab money, rob women!"
Thousands of looters rushed towards the city frantically.
They're going to indulge tonight.
Because this is the last robbery, you don't have to suppress your desires anymore.
But next minute!
They looked up.
On the street ahead, there are three low walls, all made of bamboo baskets filled with sand.
These three walls are only chest-high.
"Shhhhh!"
Column after column of troops suddenly stood up.
Coldly appeared in front of this group of looters.
A whole thousand fully armed elite warriors, the army brought by Zhang Chong from the capital.
"Put, put, put, put..."
Zhang Chong gave an order!
Arrows are raining!
"Swish swish swish..."
Round after round of salvos.
This group of looters was originally inside the gate of the city wall, and they were completely crowded together.
At this time, a rain of arrows came.
Totally a massacre.
The looters fell to the ground and died.
The leader of several gangsters was surprised.
Then he shouted: "City Lord Shen Lang, you are ignoring us, you are so poisonous, you are so poisonous."
Shen Lang turned a deaf ear.
Zhang Chong turned a deaf ear.
Countless sharp arrows fell like a torrential rain.
"Da silly, close the door!" Shen Lang ordered!
Dasha slammed the gates shut!
Immediately, the raider team was completely divided.
Thousands of the most ferocious local gangsters and habitual criminals were blocked inside the city gate.
"Brush, swipe, swipe, swish!"
The icy rain of arrows fell expressionlessly.
Several marauder leaders shouted: "Brothers, fight with them, fight with them."
Then, five people rushed over frantically, wielding big knives.
The reason why these five people became leaders is because they are powerful, roughly equivalent to the identity of Tian Heng in Xuanwu City.
Martial arts are powerful.
Five people frantically took the lead and rushed over.
The brave who meet in the narrow road wins.
We must kill a bloody path, and then behead the little white face of Shen Lang!
However, they just rushed up less than a dozen steps.
Instantly, my head flew into the sky.
Princess Ning Jie retreated with one blow, beheading the five bandit leaders.
"Shh, shh, shh..."
The arrows are raining wildly!
In a quarter of an hour!
The craziest marauders who rushed in and were killed cleanly.
Shen Lang said to Zhang Chong, "Mr. Zhang, there is military spending."
These thousands of people looted the craziest, and each of them had dozens or hundreds of gold coins on them.
All the gold coins on these people were seized, which was an astronomical sum.
Zhang Chong said, "Young Master Shen, you are playing too much."
Shen Lang said: "It's too big. Originally we wouldn't meet before the big battle. But after playing so much, we met again. After playing so much, I didn't expect this group of people to follow me like a snowball. , getting bigger and bigger, and finally even I couldn't control it at all."
Zhang Chong said: "From now on, I don't know how many people in the whole Baiye County will hate you to the core. The two of us will definitely stop crying."
Shen Lang said: "No poison is not a husband. When we sit in our position, we can only stick to the bottom line of kindness. But we must not be soft-hearted, and all those who are soft-hearted will die!"
Zhang Chong nodded in agreement.
Then, he smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, let's go to the city wall together! Su Quan's army is coming soon, and we will join forces to give him a huge surprise."
Shen Lang said: "I hope Su Nan won't vomit blood this time!"
Then, Zhang Chong and Shen Lang boarded the city wall.
All of Zhang Chong's elite troops also boarded the city wall.
Shen Lang ordered: "Wu Lie, let your subordinates pick up all the gold coins on the ground. You must not hide any of them in private. All of them will be returned to the public as military expenses for the next decisive battle against Su Nan."
"Yes!" Wu Lie said loudly.
Su Nan did everything possible to get the idea of this gold coin.
Today, this astronomical amount of gold coins has been harvested by Shen Lang as a military expense for the war with Su Nan.
He knew, I was afraid that he would vomit blood.
………………
Above the city wall!
Shen Lang looked down.
Nearly 20,000 looters threw themselves on the city wall, like a school of fish boiling on the sea when the big net was picked up.
Struggle like crazy, flutter like crazy.
The gates have been closed.
The 20,000 looters couldn't get in at all.
Immediately, there were bursts of ghosts and wolf howls, and bursts of curses.
"City Lord Shen Lang, you have such a poisonous heart."
"God-killed little white-faced city lord."
In the distance, Su Quan's army was getting closer.
The sound of iron hooves hitting the ground became more and more deafening.
Shen Lang shouted loudly: "You looters, run away!"
"Escape in all directions, it's dark at this time, you still have a chance to escape."
"This is a life-and-death game! You have grabbed money that you will never earn in your life, so you need to exchange your life for it."
"I have escaped with good luck, and my life will be prosperous and rich."
"If you can't escape if your life is bad, you will die!"
"The world is fair, and so is fate."
"If you want to curse me, Shen Lang, please feel free!"
"If you don't escape, Su Quan's army will rush up and kill you all!"
"Escape, escape!"
The sound of hooves behind him became more and more intense.
Numerous looters clutched the gold coins they looted and fled in all directions.
Like a frightened herd.
Dispersed suddenly.
Countless people cried loudly, and countless people cursed loudly.
Su Quan's army sprinted even more frantically, killing the main city of Baiye County.
He is really going crazy!
Totally crazy!
