Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

After meeting Liu Zhengfeng, Xu Wenqiang immediately told Liu Zhengfeng the results of his discussion with Ye Yunfei.

When Liu Zhengfeng heard that Ye Yunfei agreed to let him join Longmen, he became extremely excited.

"I didn't expect that Sect Master Ye would actually allow me to join Longmen. I was originally Longmen's opponent. Back then, I even caused trouble for Longmen together with Wu Fatian."

"I didn't expect that Sect Master Ye would let bygones be bygones and allow me to join Longmen. Sect Master Ye is truly a broad-minded person."

"Now I finally understand why Longmen was able to grow and develop in such a short period of time and become a powerful force that swallowed up the entire southeast. With a leader like Master Ye, it would be difficult for Longmen not to develop."

Now he truly admires Ye Yunfei.

Originally, he felt that Ye Yunfei would not agree to him joining Longmen.

After all, he was Wu Fatian's main aide.

It takes a certain level of broad-mindedness to recruit an enemy's staff member into your own camp.

However, Ye Yunfei accepted him directly.

Compared with Wu Fatian, this is completely two extremes.

If it were Wu Fatian, for someone like him, let alone recruiting him, it would be great if he wasn't shot in the head.

There was a reason for Wu Fatian’s failure, and similarly, there was a reason for Ye Yunfei’s success.

Xu Wenqiang smiled faintly and said, "I have already said that our sect leader is magnanimous and will definitely allow you to join."

"From now on, when you join Longmen, we will all be one family."

"The Sect Master should be returning to Jiangsu and Zhejiang soon. When the time comes, you can go meet him first and get to know each other."

Liu Zhengfeng said: "I understand. When the Sect Master comes back, I will go to see him immediately."

"Ah."

……

In the afternoon of that day, Ye Yunfei arrived in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

After entering Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he saw this extremely prosperous metropolis full of modern atmosphere.

During the Republic of China period, Jiangsu and Zhejiang were already very prosperous places.

Although it cannot be compared with places like Shanghai and Beijing, it is definitely at the forefront among all the cities in the Republic of China.

Moreover, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are very wealthy. There are several large chaebols in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which are collectively called Jiangsu and Zhejiang chaebols.

These Jiangsu and Zhejiang tycoons control a large amount of money and resources. To some extent, they even control the economic lifeline of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and even the entire Southeast.

Even a big warlord like Wu Fatian needed to rely on the support of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang financial tycoons.

This shows the strength of these Jiangsu and Zhejiang tycoons.

The reason why Ye Yunfei wanted to take over Jiangsu and Zhejiang so urgently was because Jiangsu and Zhejiang were in a state of ruin, and each of these tycoons in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was richer than the other.

War relies on money. As long as you occupy a place with a lot of money, you can gain wealth continuously.

In this way, whether it is recruiting soldiers or expanding territory, it will have very good results.

Therefore, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the top priorities.

Even the core of the entire Southeast.

Fortunately, Jiangsu and Zhejiang have now been successfully taken over.

Not just Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

The entire southeast has fallen into Longmen’s hands.

Ye Yunfei looked at the extremely prosperous Jiangsu and Zhejiang in front of him, which had already belonged to Longmen, and he was very happy.

Longmen's power is expanding step by step, and his goals are being achieved step by step.

A moment later, he arrived at the provincial capital of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

After entering the provincial government, Ding Li, Xu Wenqiang, Liu Zhengfeng, and a group of Longmen executives were already waiting there.

Seeing Ye Yunfei coming in, everyone stood up.

Ding Li and Xu Wenqiang came over first.

"Brother Fei, you're back."

Xu Wenqiang said.

Ye Yunfei nodded: "I'm back."

Ding Li said: "Brother Fei, I haven't seen you for several days. I miss you so much."

Ye Yunfei said: "Stop being disgusting and stay away from me."

Ding Li chuckled and stepped aside.

At this time, Xu Wenqiang said: "Brother Fei, let me introduce someone to you."

As he spoke, he brought Liu Zhengfeng over and said, "This is the former deputy commander of the Southeast Five Provinces Allied Forces and Wu Fatian's military advisor, Liu Zhengfeng. He has now joined our Longmen."

After Xu Wenqiang finished his introduction, Liu Zhengfeng immediately bowed to Ye Yunfei and said, "Master Ye, I am Liu Zhengfeng, your subordinate, and I am here to see you, Master Ye."

Ye Yunfei helped Liu Zhengfeng up and said, "Mr. Liu, you don't have to be polite. Since you have joined Longmen, we are all family."

"Also, I have heard of Mr. Liu's name a long time ago. If it weren't for Mr. Liu, Wu Fatian wouldn't be able to be so powerful."

"It is an honor for Longmen that Mr. Liu can join us."

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhengfeng immediately said, "Master Ye, you are too kind to me. I am just an ordinary soldier. I am so grateful to you for taking me in."

"Please rest assured, Master Ye, I, Liu Zhengfeng, will do my best to serve Longmen in the future."

"Master Ye, if you have anything to say, just tell me. I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Ye Yunfei smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Liu, please take a seat."

Afterwards, Ye Yunfei sat in the front seat.

He looked at the dozen or so Longmen executives below him and said with a smile, "Everyone, you have worked hard to conquer Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Anhui provinces this time."

"Everyone has made such great contributions to Longmen, I will definitely reward everyone well."

"Wen Qiang, in this attack on Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, all those who have made contributions will be rewarded according to their merits. This matter is now handed over to you."

Xu Wenqiang said: "Don't worry, Brother Fei, I will make proper arrangements."

Ye Yunfei nodded and said, "Now, people have been sent to control each province and county in the southeast."

Xu Wenqiang said: "Yes, now the five provinces in the southeast, with more than 400 counties under their jurisdiction, have all been replaced by our people. We, Longmen, completely occupy the southeast without any problem."

"All of Wu Fatian's former followers were expelled by us."

Ye Yunfei nodded and continued, "What about Wu Fatian's army? I heard that Wu Fatian still has 300,000 troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces. How do you arrange these 300,000 troops?"

Although Wu Fatian fled, these 300,000 troops still exist.

Three hundred thousand troops is not a small number. Where are these people now?

Xu Wenqiang said: "I was just about to report this to you, Brother Fei."

"Wu Fatian's 300,000 troops are still in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. I will gather them all in one military camp."

"Now the question is how to arrange for these 300,000 people. I still need to consult Brother Fei."

Because 300,000 people is a large number, he didn't dare to make a decision on his own, so he still had to ask Ye Yunfei for instructions.

See how Ye Yunfei arranges it.

Ye Yunfei frowned and said, "How do you think these 300,000 people should be arranged..."
