After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 769 Infighting
There used to be [-] or [-] gangsters in Takigawa. Although they are farmers in the fields and fishermen in the water, can they be called bandits just for farming and fishing? How is that different from ordinary obedient people?Now that Yuheng City has strengthened the control over the Takigawa trade route, the goods recovered by the water bandits have been greatly reduced, but the cost is very high.

When the income can't cover the cost, how many people are willing to do this money-losing business?
"Yuheng City has cleaned up the periphery of Takigawa several times. Now, including the Lu Family Gang, twelve or three gangs have been disbanded. These people have either been absorbed by other gangs, or left Takikawa on their own. And recently The atmosphere was tense, and when I came out, there were still about two hundred people facing each other, and I don't know if there was a fight."

There are still so many people waiting to share the spoils and money, but the profits have decreased. What should I do?
Roll up, start rolling inward.

Even the bandits know that it is either layoffs or fighting.In short, internal friction.

He Lingchuan smiled: "Tell me about those puppet troops from Xixiang."

The remnants of Xilong, who were dispersed by the Red General and Xiao Maoliang, hid in Longchuan, calling themselves "Xilong Army", and Yuheng City called it a puppet army.

"I was just about to say that the two gangs that want to fight are the Xixiang Puppet Army and the Qiuhua Gang." The thin man took a sip of his wine, "There used to be several Xixiang Puppet Army, but now they are all gathered into one gang."

He Lingchuan understood: "Without an official status, it is not easy for them to beg for food in that land."

"Yes, they used to be officers and soldiers, and some of them went into Takigawa and captured water bandits, but they changed their minds a few months ago and started doing the same job. You think the two sides have a long-standing grudge, the puppet army first entered Takigawa It didn't go well, there were dozens of people whose throats were secretly cut at night. Later, they got close to the Jinjiao people, so they had a backing, and began to fight against other water bandits."

"The bandit army attacked the city three months ago. It was the puppet army of Xijiu who helped contact other gangsters. They said that the Jinjiao people spent a lot of money to hire them to work and gave them food and soldiers. They also said that Yuheng City was newly built and there were many rich merchants. The army has just taken shape and is easy to fight. If you come and go, you can rob a lot of money."

"These puppet troops from Xi'an are just as good at fighting, and they're not bad at fooling people." He Lingchuan knew that the people in Jinzhu probably heard that Commander Xiao had been transferred away, and that Yuheng City was replaced with a new commander who was not well-known. So he wanted to give him some eye drops, and the water bandits wanted to come and rob him of a fortune, and the two hit it off.

"Isn't it?" The thin man also laughed, "In the end, he bumped his head against the iron plate and killed so many people. Back in Takigawa, the gangsters attacked the puppet army of Xixiang and demanded compensation."

"Did not give?"

"Of course I didn't. The puppet army of Xijin had a lot of casualties. After a few days of thinking about it, the two sides became more and more angry, and they started fighting." The thin man shook his head, "I just went there not long ago. The puppet army of Xilong won, and several bandit gangs were directly disbanded."

"It's not surprising, they have backers behind them."

"That's right." The thin man ate a peanut, "Right now Takigawa is roughly divided into three forces."

"The first is the local traditional gang, which has existed for more than 20 years and is headed by Qianjinzhai."

"The second type is the puppet army of Xijiu from outside. They have the closest collusion with the Jinji Kingdom."

"The third type is the small and medium-sized bandit gangs, which have always been floating in the middle. Wherever they are stronger, they will follow the trend, such as the Ball Flower Gang."

He Lingchuan toasted him with a glass of wine: "Excellent, as expected of you, the intricate inside story can be summed up so clearly."

Two of the undercover agents sent by Yuheng City to Takigawa rushed back before their secrets were exposed, and now only two are left to lurk, and one of them is Shouzi.

This guy is really a natural espionage talent.

With the thin man's division, He Lingchuan knew the distribution of power within Takikawa, which would help him formulate future plans.

"Boss, you are still so shrewd." The thin man beckoned to the black and thin barbecue brother, "I also confirm one thing: Jin Yiguo has sent people to the puppet army in Xilong for more than a month, and he will take the top spot as soon as he goes. He also wants them to be obedient. The attacks on the patrols on the Southern Commercial Road were planned by him."

"This person's name?"

"Fu Shanlie."

He Lingchuan slightly paused the hand holding the cup.Was the murderer who killed Miao Mingming and others really Fu Shanyue's father?
This is really bad news, it proves that Vega also wants to get involved here.

"How is your cultivation?"

"It's very powerful. I killed the leader Liwei when I first came here."

He Lingchuan explained: "Stay away from him, so as not to be remembered by him. This guy looks like a human, but he is actually a monster with extremely sensitive eyes, eyes and smell."

The thin man was surprised: "What kind of monster is this?"

"The guard who was attacked had four blood holes in his neck. He died after being sucked dry of his blood." He Lingchuan said in a low voice, "I'm afraid it's Ba, I've already reported it to Panlong City."

"Understood." The barbecue boy came over, and the thin man stretched out five fingers to him, "Hey, brother, grill me five more skewers of big kidneys!"

Anyway, if there is a treat today, he will pick the most expensive one.

After the little brother agreed, the thin man continued: "Boss, you counterattacked the bandits very timely, otherwise you will be in big trouble now."

"How to say?"

"Fu Shanlie just started to lead people to attack the patrols of Yuheng City. The first few times he succeeded successfully, which caused a lot of shock in Takigawa." Takigawa water bandits and officers and soldiers have been entangled for a long time, but it is only natural for officers and soldiers to suppress bandits It is too unorthodox for bandits to take the initiative to kill officers and soldiers. "By doing this, the puppet army of Xixiang made the Takigawa bandits look at them with admiration."

He Lingchuan sneered: "It wasn't just the puppet army of Xixiang who attacked the patrol later."

"Yeah, other bandits have followed suit." The skinny man heaved a sigh of relief, "If you hadn't led the Yuheng City Army to counterattack forcefully, the southern trade routes would have been in big trouble!"

No matter how rampant banditry was in the past, it was the bandits who robbed business travelers fiercely; if it develops to the point where bandits kill patrols and kill fiercely, then it's okay?
He Lingchuan wanted to fight back at all costs, just to stop this unhealthy trend.

"now what?"

"Now the Yuheng city army is responding with iron and blood, and the bandits' den is not peaceful. The voices of blaming the puppet army of Xixiang are louder and higher." The army crazily retaliated against the entire Takigawa, and everyone was out of luck."

It was obviously the fault of the puppet army of Xixiang, but the bitter fruit had to be swallowed by all the bandits in Takigawa, so someone must not do it.

He pondered for a long time before saying: "Qianjinzhai and Xixiang Puppet Army are recruiting manpower, right?"

"Yes, there are a lot of gangs that have disbanded recently, and they recruit based on merit."

"It's getting more and more difficult to rob the Takigawa trade route, and the internal strife among water bandits will become more and more serious." Involution is not just an invention of his original world.
