Chapter 252: Shen lang betrayed the world!
Translator: 549690339
On the surface, everything seemed normal in raging tide city, but there was an undercurrent.
This was because a terrifying rumor had spread.
The Marquis of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, was already dead. He was assassinated by an expert of the Wu Kingdom.
In the beginning, many merchants scoffed at the rumor.
Was this a joke?
Marquis Jin Zhuo was a martial arts expert, and he had many other experts by his side.
If they wanted to assassinate him, they would have to send a Grandmaster-level powerhouse.
However, which Grandmaster in the world would be willing to be an assassin?
From a certain point of view, these words were correct.
At least, the six grandmasters of Yue State would not accept any orders from the government. They basically drew a clear line between them.
If li qianqiu did not want to save his wife, he would not have listened to Shen Lang’s words and killed su Nan.
Furthermore, it was not the first time that the rumor of Jin Zhuo’s death had spread, so no one took it seriously.
However, many people started to feel that something was amiss. It was because Marquis Jin Zhuo had not appeared for a long time.
As the Lord of raging tide city, it was not normal for him to not show up for three days.
In the following period of time, the one representing the palace of the Marquis of Xuanwu was always Jin Shiying, the nominal Lord of raging tide city.
His face was expressionless, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or sad. It was impossible to get information on the Marquis of Black Tortoise’s condition from him.
However, there was a clear signal.
The fleet of the Marquis of Xuanwu’s Palace retreated completely. A part of them returned to the raging tide City Dock, while the rest returned to the Jin family dock in Tiannan province.
The sea caravan of the heavenly Dao Association had also officially stopped sailing.
This was definitely not normal.
The heavenly Dao Association’s trade fleet was like an ocean of gold and silver every day, so why did they suddenly stop?
Something big must have happened.
Therefore, many people guessed that the Marquis of Xuanwu, Jin Zhuo, might have really been assassinated.
And at this moment.
The Marquis of Xuanwu, Jin Zhuo, appeared again. However, he was very far away and was wearing armor.
It was fine if he didn’t show up, but once he did, it triggered many speculations.
It seemed that the Marquis of Black Tortoise was really dead. Otherwise, why would he send a substitute?
It was abnormal and very strange.
........................
Was Jin Zhuo dead or not?
Zhuo Zhaoyan wasn’t sure either, because ku Huanhuan didn’t come back to look for her.
There were two possibilities.
The first possibility was that ku Huanhuan didn’t manage to kill Jin Zhuo, so she was too embarrassed to see her.
The second possibility was that bitter joy had already killed Jin Zhuo, but he regretted it very much after the incident and felt that he had done something wrong, so he did not dare to come and see her.
Jin Zhuo’s death was especially important for the upcoming situation.
However, regardless of whether Jin Zhuo was dead or not, they still had to fight raging tide city.
Yin Yuan Association was determined to take over the Furious tide city.
Because of the glass mirror, the heavenly society had already regained the initiative in many trades, and the hidden element Society had already suffered huge losses.
The fall of raging tide city made Yin Yuan Association’s situation worse.
The current raging tide city was not only the Trade Center of the eastern sea of Yue State. It was said that there was a secret workshop under the big Castle that specialized in making glass mirrors.
This was too important to the hidden origins sect.
No matter what, they had to take over raging tide city.
But if Jin Zhuo died, then it would be much easier to take over raging tide city.
............
Raging tide city was still the same as before, a free city.
After the Jin family took over the city, they didn’t change this.
The city still had no walls, and any merchant could still come to do business.
As a result, the city was naturally extremely prosperous.
But it was also a mix of good and bad.
You have no idea who is behind these shops.
In an underground secret room in a leather shop.
Zhuo Zhaoyan met the secret envoy of the yin Yuan Association, Shu tingyu, in secret.
“Ku Huanhuan didn’t come back to find me, so I can’t be sure if he really killed Jin Zhuo.”
Shu tingyu remained silent.
Jin Mulan isn’t good at hiding her emotions, ” Zhuo Zhaoyan said. do you want me to make a trip to Xuanwu city? ”
“No, definitely not,” Shu tingyu shook his head. This matter is too big, Your Highness must not be involved.”
Taking over raging tide city was the strategy of the entire Yin Yuan Association, and supporting the Crown Prince of Yue country was the biggest strategy of the Shu family.
30000 troops have been assembled, ” Shu tingyu said. if Jin Zhuo is dead, we have to fight this battle. If Jin Zhuo is not dead, we still have to fight this battle.
30,000 troops?
Using 30,000 troops to attack raging tide city?
Where did this 30000 strong Army come from?
the crown prince’s Secret information, ” Zhuo Zhaoyan said. the heavenly society has already sensed danger and is sending Warriors to raging tide city continuously.
It was more than that.
This was a huge chess game.
The Army of Chu State was creating disputes at the border, and the Army of Zhongyao was on guard.
At this moment, the temperature at the border of the Chu and Yue countries was rising every day. Over 200000 troops were constantly approaching each other and a war could break out at any time.
In the South of Tianxi province.
The 40,000-strong Army of the new Qiang King arutai had already set off and would soon enter the territory of Yue country.
Su Nan’s Army of more than twenty thousand had already assembled.
Once the SU and Qiang armies were united, the two armies would have a total of seventy to eighty thousand soldiers.
In an instant, the sky fell and the earth cracked. In at most a month, the southern part of Tianxi province of Yue country would fall.
The North of Yue country!
The king, ning yuanxian, had already arrived at Shangye city and was leading the Army.
Not only did he take away the tens of thousands of Nangong ao’s troops, he even took away half of Bian Xiao’s troops from Yan Prefecture.
It was as if he was going to have a decisive battle with King Wu.
At this moment, the entire world’s attention was focused on the Wu and Yue border.
After all, this was the final battle between two kings.
In the South of Yue country, general of Pingnan, Zhu Lin, had desperately shrunk the defense line and defended the capital of Nan ou.
Jin Jun took the opportunity to lead the sand primitive Army to recover their lost territory.
To Yue country, it was truly an Ambush from Ten Sides and a crisis from eight sides.
Who would have thought that the fuse of this fatal crisis was actually su Nan alone?
The Emperor of the great Yan Empire had already sent three batches of emissaries to the camps of the King of Wu and the king of Yue respectively, to admonish the two of them to value peace.
Of course, he had to do this on the surface.
Even though the Emperor of the great Yan Empire wished for these countries to be beaten into a pile of shit.
While the new policies of other countries were fake, the new policies of the great Yan Empire were real. Not only did they target the old noble families, but they also targeted the civil and military officials.
The most terrifying thing was!
The new governance of the Empire of Great Yan was about to come to an end.
Once the new governance was completed, the power of the entire Empire would be in the hands of the Emperor.
When that time came, all the countries in the world would not even have the courage to look directly at the Emperor.
Back to the main topic.
At this time, the great Yue Kingdom had become a huge chessboard. Several chess games seemed to be isolated, but in fact, they were completely entangled.
For the battle of raging tide city.
The arrow was already on the bow and had no choice but to fire.
“Do you know how much money King Ningyuan borrowed from the hidden faction?” Shu tingyu asked.
“How much?” Zhuo Zhaoyan asked.
“2.3 million gold,” Shu tingyu said.
Zhuo Zhaoyan gasped.
Borrowing so much money in one go?
It didn’t sound like a lot. After all, the yinyuan Association had once lent one million gold coins to the Earl of golden universe, and the heavenly Dao Association had also lent one million gold coins to Shen lang.
However, they had their real assets as collateral, so there was no need to worry about not being able to pay it back.
However, the king, ning yuanxian, had borrowed money from the yinyuan Association, but he didn’t have any assets as collateral.
The point was that he had already borrowed a lot of money and had yet to return it. Now, he had borrowed so much more.
in order to take over raging tide city, ” Shu tingyu said, ” we, the hidden element Society, have used more than 1.5 million gold coins in lobbying fees and military expenses.
Zhuo Zhaoyan’s scalp went numb when she heard these numbers.
Yinyuan Association was super rich, but in Yue country, its annual net profit would not exceed one million gold coins.
that’s why in the battle of raging tide city, the arrow is already on the bow and has no choice but to fire. Even if Jin Zhuo dies, he still has to fight. Even if Jin Zhuo doesn’t, he still has to fight.
The hidden origins sect had already paid for the military expenses of the 30000 strong Army a month ago.
“Alright, your mission is complete. Leave the matter of determining whether Jin Zhuo is dead to me.” Shu tingyu said lightly.
Zhuo Zhaoyan was stunned.
What could Shu tingyu do?
..................
Zhuo Zhaoyan had left!
activate the snowman, ” Shu tingyu ordered. I must get some definite news whether Jin Zhuo is dead or not!
His trusted subordinate was stunned.
The snowman was a chess piece that the hidden element Society had planted in the Jin family.
It had never been used.
Even when Chou Tian attacked hope Cliff Island previously, Yin Yuan Association felt that it was a sure win and didn’t use this spy.
Now, it was finally time to use it.
It seemed that the situation had indeed reached an extremely critical moment.
..................
Half an hour later!
In a shop not far from the raging tide city Lord’s mansion, a brand new signboard was hung up. three-clawed snowman, one eye open, one eye closed.
Of course, this did not attract anyone’s attention.
Because this shop sold all kinds of alcohol, and on a hot summer day, they also sold iced sour plum soup, so wasn’t it normal to use snowmen as a signboard?
Moreover, the shops in raging tide city were all very modern, and some of them would change their signs every once in a while.
When everyone saw the new signboard, they felt that this snowman was quite interesting.
Meanwhile, a certain person in the raging tide city lord’s castle saw the new signboard of the Yeti on the high city wall. His eyes shrank slightly, and his heart trembled.
Had this day finally come?
It’s finally here!
It’s good that she’s here.
..................
Evening!
Shu tingyu of the hidden origins sect met the snowman who had been undercover in the Jin family for a long time.
Of course, it couldn’t be called seeing.
The two of them were talking across a thin wall.
Shu tingyu still could not see his face.
This was also a form of protection to prevent him from revealing even the slightest flaw when they met on another occasion.
The other party’s voice was hoarse, and his original voice could no longer be heard.
“Have the snowmen on the great snow Mountain melted?”
no, but the great calamity Palace is about to collapse. Two of the snowman’s toes were broken, and there are only three left.
The two of them finished matching the secret code, which was unique and impossible to fake.
“Is Jin Zhuo dead?” Shu tingyu asked.
The other party thought for a while.
this answer is very important, ” Shu tingyu said. it’s completely related to the yin Yuan Association’s deployment.
“I didn’t see Marquis Jin Zhuo’s body. I haven’t seen him for a few days. However, I saw an Zaishi’s body being carried out. Although it was very well hidden, I still found it because it had to pass by me. ”
“Is this person very close to Jin Zhuo?” Shu tingyu asked.
“We are always together,” the snowman said,”Marquis Jin Zhuo’s food has to go through his inspection.”
did you see it on the night of the assassination? ” Shu tingyu asked. did you see it? ”
“No, I wasn’t there. After that, when it was my turn, I had not seen Marquis Jin Zhuo since.”
no reason? ” Shu tingyu asked. no reason? ”
“No reason,” the snowman replied.
he didn’t say anything about the assassination, ” Shu tingyu said. did he? ”
“No,” the snowman replied.
what’s going on? ” Shu tingyu asked. what’s going on at the Marquis of Xuanwu’s residence? ”
“Jin Mulan secretly entered raging tide city,” the snowman said.
“Jin Mulan is here?” Shu tingyu asked.
“That’s right, it’s still a secret to the outside world,” the snowman said.
Jin Mulan had actually come to raging tide city.
This was too abnormal.
All along, it had been Jin Zhuo guarding raging tide city, and Jin Mulan guarding the Marquis Xuanwu’s mansion.
The Marquis’s mansion was the root of the Jin family. Now, Jin Mulan had actually given up on the Marquis’s mansion and came directly to raging tide city.
when she came, ” Shu tingyu said, ” did she look sad? ”
The snowman sank into his memories, then shook his head and said, ” “No, I’m full of doubts.”
Shu tingyu closed her eyes.
This was right, this was right.
Marquis Jin Zhuo was dead, but he kept it a secret from the outside world.
The Warriors of the heavenly society kept coming, and all the trade ships were almost completely stopped.
Jin Mulan had secretly entered raging tide city, but even she didn’t know that Jin Zhuo was dead. She wasn’t good at disguising herself, so it was easy for her to be seen through.
She had come to raging tide city to take charge of the situation.
I have to go back now, ” the snowman said. I’m too important in the castle. If I leave for more than 15 minutes, I’ll be noticed.
“Will they suspect you?” Shu tingyu asked.
“How is that possible?” the snowman asked. I’m the Jin clan’s most trusted person, and even I feel like a loyal dog of the Jin clan.”
then you go back first, ” Shu tingyu said. be ready to accept our new orders at any time.
“What do you plan to do with me after this?” the snowman asked after a moment of hesitation.
Shu tingyu was silent for a moment before she said,’I can brag about you to the point that you’ll be bestowed a noble title. But in fact, I can’t be completely sure because the situation is very complicated. It’s a very big game with many big players.”
“I understand,” the snowman said in silence.
“But I can guarantee that you’re alive,” Shu tingyu said. The Jin family is destined to be the first to die in this great conspiracy. No one in the world can save the Jin family.”
The snowman was silent.
but in the next few years, ” Shu tingyu said, ” we’ll arrange for you to enter a higher and bigger position. That’s your chance to rise to the top.
“Farewell,” the snowman stood up and said.
Then, he left.
..................
Shu tingyu was right.
At this moment, the entire Yue country was like a huge chessboard.
For a monarch, the two most important games were in the North and the West.
Raging tide city was of great importance to the Jin family, but to the king, it was far less important.
He wasn’t even paying attention to raging tide city.
At this moment, he was completely focused on the game with King Wu.
Decisive battle, decisive battle!
The Emperor personally led the troops.
The battle of National fate, the battle of National fate.
Ning yuanxian shouted his slogan loudly.
The war in the South had even been suspended, and the Western Army, Zhong Yao, had received the order to hold on and not come out.
Ning yuanxian directly borrowed 2.3 million gold coins from the yinyuan Association as military expenses for this decisive battle.
The North guard Nangong ao had tens of thousands of troops, while Bian Xiao had a total of 100000. Ning yuanxian had transferred 60000.
The remaining 40000 soldiers would find it hard to defend Yan Zhou.
He heard that Bian Xiao had smashed the table, which showed how angry he was.
The most dangerous place in the entire state of Yue was Yanzhou, but now, ning yuanxian had actually transferred half of the main force of Yanzhou away.
At this time, on the defense line of the entire Tianbei province, the State of Yue had 100000 troops.
It was as if a country-toppling war was about to break out.
The young king of Wu was also stunned. He did not expect ning yuanxian to react so strongly.
He had only defeated ning yuanxian at the border hunt, and then led 30000 troops South to approach Shangye Prefecture to provoke them.
He was acting as a cover for the strategic breakthroughs in other directions.
However, he did not expect that he would directly anger ning yuanxian and make him personally lead the Army to the war.
Not only that, but all the generals under ning yuanxian’s command, including the North Garrison Liege, Nangong ao, the third Prince, ning Qi, and the Earl of Jing ‘an, Wu Zhaozhong, had all gathered under his command.
The country’s capital was completely thrown to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince, who had just supervised the country, was once again in charge of the country.
The young king of Wu naturally did not want to fight a decisive battle, but if ning yuanxian were to go crazy, he would have no choice but to fight.
Therefore, the King of Wu could only desperately gather his Army at the border of Wu and Yue.
However, he would definitely not take the initiative to attack, because su Nan’s rebellion was imminent. When Su Qiang’s Army killed their way into Tianxi province of Yue country, it would be the best opportunity to divide up Yue country.
In just half a month.
The two kings had gathered an Army of more than 200000 at the border.
At their closest, the two kings were no more than five li apart, facing each other from a distance.
........................
He moved the chess game to the West of the great Yue Kingdom.
Shen lang led over 200 Warriors and charged into the white night Commandery Princess city.
Then, the toughest group of people in the Raider team behind him also rushed in madly.
“Kill, kill, kill!”
“Kill them all, burn them all, and Rob them all!”
This group of people roared madly, holding all kinds of weapons, and rushed into white Night Commandery Princess city.
This group of Raider’s hearts were incomparably ecstatic and excited.
They had finally arrived in this big city, and they could finally plunder as they pleased.
brothers, charge into all the shops and Rob everything.
“Robbing money, robbing treasures, and robbing women to be happy.”
Shen Lang’s expression changed when he heard this, and he shouted, ” I’ve given the order. You can only Rob the Western Region merchants ‘shops. You can not Rob the shops of the Yue Kingdom. You can kill the Warriors of the Western Region, but you can’t kill the merchants of my state, and you can’t take any women.”
This was indeed the iron rule that Shen lang had set previously.
“Hahaha!” The leaders laughed,”hahaha!”City Lord Shen lang, do you think you can still control everyone at this point? This is the last city we’ve taken hostage. You’ve already opened the gate for us, so you’re useless now.”
that’s right. City Lord Shen lang, if I were you, I would definitely escape as soon as possible. The further the better. We are afraid that we would not be able to control ourselves and capture you to offer you to Lord su Nan.
brothers, this pretty-faced city Lord wants to control us and stop us from plundering and snatching women. Do you think we should agree? ”
“I don’t agree, I don’t agree!”
the pretty-faced city Lord dares to stop us. Kill him! Kill him!
Many crazy bandits and rogues shouted.
It was very easy to distinguish the group of people at this time. The group at the front was definitely local ruffians and rogues. They were bandits because they were the most daring.
city Lord Shen lang, hurry up and move aside. Don’t delay us from getting rich or from us sleeping with the ladies. Otherwise, we will kill you too!
“Move, move!”
More and more looters poured into the city gate.
There were hundreds and thousands of people.
They all waved the machetes in their hands, as if they had gone crazy.
The city of flowers was right in front of them. There were countless shops waiting for them to pillage. There were even many fair-skinned women waiting for them to Rob.
Now, Shen lang wanted to suppress them?
Are you dreaming?
“Pretty boy, get out of my way. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being merciless.”
“Hahahaha!”
Shen lang looked at this group of people deeply.
“Move aside!” He waved his hand.
Immediately, the two hundred or so cavalrymen behind him moved aside.
“Hahahaha!” The Raider was overjoyed.
this pretty-faced city Lord is indeed a silver spearhead. He’s completely useless and cowered away when we scared him.
“Go, go, I’m going to make a fortune.”
“Robbing money, robbing women!”
A few thousand Raider madly rushed into the city.
They were going to indulge tonight.
Because this was the last pillage, he no longer had to suppress his desires.
However, the next minute!
They looked up.
There were three low walls on the street in front of them, all of which were made of bamboo baskets filled with sand.
The three walls were only as high as her chest.
Shua shua shua!
Rows and rows of soldiers stood up suddenly.
He coldly appeared in front of the group of looters.
A whole one thousand fully armed elite warriors, the Army that Zhang Ji had brought from the capital.
“Let, let, let, let Yingluo go.”
Zhang Ye gave the order!
The arrows fell like rain!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Round after round of salvo.
This group of Raider was originally inside the city wall, completely squeezed together.
At this moment, a rain of arrows came.
It was a complete massacre.
The group of Raider fell to the ground and died.
The bandit leaders were shocked at first.
He then shouted, ” city Lord Shen lang, you tricked us. You are so evil. You have such an evil heart.
Shen lang turned a deaf ear.
Zhang Ye turned a deaf ear.
Countless sharp arrows rained down like a storm.
“Da Sha, close the door!” Shen lang gave the order!
Dumb closed the city gate!
Instantly, the Raider team was completely split up.
Thousands of the most brutal local ruffians and criminals were blocked inside the city gate.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, Whoosh!”
The ice-cold rain of arrows fell without any expression.
“Brothers, let’s fight it out with them, let’s fight it out with them!” The leaders of the Raiders shouted.
Then, the five of them brandished their big knives and rushed over.
The reason why these five people became the leaders was that they were powerful to begin with. Their status was similar to Tian Heng’s in Xuanwu city.
His martial arts were considered to be very strong.
The five of them led the charge.
The brave will win when they meet on a narrow road.
He had to kill his way out and then kill Shen lang!
However, they had only taken a dozen steps forward.
Instantly, his head flew to the sky.
Eldest Princess ning Jie retreated with a single attack and killed the five Bandit leaders.
“Woah, woah, woah woah woah”
A rain of arrows fell!
15 minutes later!
The craziest Raider who had rushed in was completely killed.
“Duke Zhang, we have the military budget,” Shen lang said to Zhang Ye.
These thousands of people were the most frenzied in their plundering, and each of them had tens to hundreds of gold coins on them.
The gold coins on these people were all seized, and it was an astronomical figure.
“Young master Shen, you’re playing too big,” Zhang Ye said.
Shen lang said, ” yes, it is. Originally, we would not meet before the final battle. But we’ve played so big that we’ve met again. I didn’t expect that this group of people would be like a rolling snowball, getting bigger and bigger until I couldn’t control them at all.”
from now on, ” Zhang Ye said, ” I don’t know how many people in the entire White Night Prefecture will hate you to the core. The two of us will definitely stop crying.
Shen lang said, ” a man must be ruthless. In our position, we can only be kind. But you absolutely can’t be soft-hearted, and those who are soft-hearted will all die!”
Zhang Ye nodded in agreement.
Then, he smiled and said,”young master Shen, let’s go up the city wall together!” Su Quan’s Army is about to arrive. Let’s join forces and give him a huge surprise.”
“I hope su Nan doesn’t vomit blood this time!” Shen lang said.
After that, Zhang Ji and Shen lang climbed up the city wall.
All of Zhang Ji’s elite troops had also climbed up the city wall.
Shen lang ordered, ” Wu lie, get your men to pick up all the gold coins on the ground. Don’t hide a single one. Return them all to the public. They will be used as military expenses for the battle against su Nan.
“Yes!” Wu lie said loudly.
Su Nan had tried every possible means to get this sum of gold coins.
Now, Shen lang had collected this astronomical amount of gold and used it as military expenses for the war with su Nan.
If he knew, he would probably vomit blood.
..................
On the city wall!
Shen lang looked down.
Nearly 20,000 Raiders pounced on the city wall, like a fish in the sea when a large net was caught.
It struggled and struggled madly.
The city gate was already closed.
These 10,000 to 20000 Raiders couldn’t even enter.
Immediately, ghostly wails and wolf howls could be heard, as well as waves of curses.
city Lord Shen lang, you are so vicious.
“That damn pretty boy city Lord.”
Su Quan’s Army was getting closer and closer.
The sound of iron hooves hitting the ground was getting more and more deafening.
run! Shen lang shouted, ” all the Raider, run!
run in all directions. It’s dark now. If you escape, you still have a chance of survival.
“This is a game of life and death! You’ve snatched money that you’ll never be able to earn in your lifetime, so you’ll have to exchange it with your lives.”
“The lucky ones escaped and lived a life of wealth and glory.”
“If you’re unlucky and can’t escape, then die!”
“This world is very fair, and fate is also very fair.”
if you want to curse me, Shen lang, then do as you please!
“If you don’t escape, su Quan’s Army will rush up and kill you all!”
“Run, run!”
The sound of horse hooves behind him became more and more intense.
Many of the looters clutched the gold coins they had seized and fled in all directions.
They were like frightened beasts.
They instantly scattered.
Countless people were crying and cursing.
Su Quan’s Army charged even more crazily towards White Night Commandery Princess city.
He was really going crazy!
He was completely crazy!
