Then, something embarrassing happened.

Not long after surrendering, Shu Yichao led his troops to attack, and the situation was reversed!

They were too embarrassed to go back to Li Laiheng, so they decided to switch sides on the battlefield and join Ma Bao. Their torture techniques earned them praise from Ma Bao's soldiers.

"Hehehe, we've finished recovering the stolen goods and providing financial support in the capital, let's go to the southern capital again."

Ma Tengyun chuckled.

"It can be considered a complete merit, hahaha!"

In this way, bloody storms once again broke out in various parts of Jiangnan.

Black smoke billowed, the sound of killing resounded through the sky, corpses were scattered all over the ground, and blood flowed like a river.

Swords, guns, flesh and blood were intertwined, and cannons roared with anger. A cruel poem written in blood began to play.

Deadly smoke and flames, mixed with various roars and wails, filled this land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River. The smoke and blood made the early spring look devastated.

"Have you heard?"

Jiangnan, Chenjia Town.

Some residents were gathered in a small, dilapidated temple, mysteriously exchanging rumors about the city.

"While the Heavenly King was offering sacrifices to Emperor Taizu, scholars from all over the country came to the palace to complain to the emperor about some unjust, false, or wrongful conviction..."

"Unexpectedly, the Heavenly King directly ordered these people to be killed."

"That's tens of thousands of Wenquxing."

"They slaughtered them all... not a single one survived."

The person who said this made a clicking sound.

"I heard the blood was almost up to people's knees."

"After the people died, the Heavenly King cut off the remaining heads and threw them in front of Taizu's tomb.

"It's really miserable."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Unexpectedly, the person next to him frowned.

"Who is talking nonsense?"

"I heard it from Mr. Chen in town."

"Could what he said be false?"

"Tsk------" the man shrugged off the remarks.

"They're just spreading rumors out there."

"Mr. Chen stays in town all day and has only been to Nandu a few times. What does he know?"

"My aunt's second son's uncle..."

"He's doing business in Nandu!"

"He told me that it was clearly a group of scholars with ulterior motives who went to assassinate the king that day."

He said it vividly.

"I heard they learned some kind of magic formation. Everyone wore green clothes and chose a woman born on a yin month, yin hour, and yin phase to be the center of the formation. They wanted to secretly murder Your Majesty."

"As expected, once he met them, His Majesty fell into the water.

"It was all thanks to the Heavenly King that he turned the tide and killed all those who plotted rebellion."

"I heard that the Heavenly King is furious right now, searching everywhere for his accomplices and wiping out all nine clans."

"what?"

"Is that so?"

Obviously, a scholar knocking on the palace gate was not as exciting as assassinating the king, and all the residents were attracted by this statement.

"Could you tell me more?"

"I..." The man was still thinking about what he was going to say when he suddenly heard the sound of a huge bell in the town.

“Bang, bang, bang!!”

"What's going on here?"

They walked out of the small dilapidated temple out of curiosity, but found that the direction of the town was filled with smoke and dust.

Within the town.

"Chief, this is what happened."

Mr. Chen, who was exhausted and trembling, knelt on the ground and cried.

"That King is simply not a human being!"

"died!"

“They’re all dead!”

"If I hadn't caught a cold that day and hadn't gone with them..."

"Chief, I will never see you again!"

"The King of Dian is still searching for his accomplices everywhere."

"Chief, I'm afraid we will be implicated as well."

Mr. Chen was crying and looked extremely pitiful.

"What should we do?"

In front of Mr. Chen, the head of the Chen family and the leader of the Red Flower Society, Chen Jialuo, who was sitting in the main seat in the hall, had a look of doubt on his face.

He couldn't understand why the situation in this world changed so quickly.

The Red Flower Society is an underworld organization that secretly carries out anti-Qian activities.

When he first succeeded the Red Flower Society as its chief leader, Chen Jialuo still had some lofty ambitions, believing that he should call on heroes from all over the world to drive out the Tartars and restore China...

But before he could figure out how to fight back, Shu Yichao came at him aggressively and drove Qin Ting out of Jiangnan.

Chen Jialuo was completely stunned.

Ah this...

who am I?

Where am I?

What should I do?

Chen Jialuo fell into confusion.

Don't I want to make a comeback?

But I didn’t seem to do anything, so this goal was achieved?

Just when Chen Jialuo was dizzy, the situation changed again

It doesn’t mean that underworld organizations have no entity at all.

After all, people need to eat to survive.

Most of them are a huge ecological environment composed of many organizations such as wealthy families, trading companies, sects, etc.

For example, was Chen Jialuo able to become the chief leader of the Red Flower Society because he was a martial arts expert, handsome and elegant, and behaved with courtesy and integrity, which made people convinced?

of course not.

This is because the Chen family is a big local family that is well connected in both the black and white worlds. Some of their descendants study to get into the officialdom, while others travel the underworld.

Therefore, disciples of the Chen family were also invited to go to Nando to pay homage this time.

The result...

"I have also heard of this man, the Heavenly King." After listening to Mr. Chen's vivid description of the tragic scene in Nando, Chen Jialuo found it unbelievable.

"He led troops from the wilderness to the throne, restored the Great Meng Empire, and within a year, he conquered half of the world."

"He's also a first-rate hero."

"Why did you become so cruel and vicious after entering Nandu?"

"In front of Emperor Taizu's tomb, he actually ordered the massacre of tens of thousands of unarmed scholars. This, this..."

"Isn't he afraid of chaos?"

"Humph!" said Mr. Chen indignantly.

"Is this even worth considering?"

"An illiterate barbarian from a poor and remote place!"

"He may have some skills in fighting, but at heart he's a complete country bumpkin!"

"What does he know about the teachings of the saints?"

"It's nothing more than seeing that many scholars have little wealth at home, so they want to rob them."

After saying this, Mr. Chen burst into tears again.

"Chief, please make a decision."

"Otherwise, the Mad King's army, ready to plunder and exterminate families, is probably already on the way!"

Chapter 775 - His Majesty's Death

Mr. Chen cried miserably.

But Chen Jialuo was very hesitant.

He doesn't know anything else, but he knows exactly what he is capable of.

Chen Jialuo believed that his martial arts skills were very good and that he had few rivals in the vast Southern Kingdom.

But in the final analysis, he can only defeat a hundred enemies at most.

And you can't face the army, otherwise the soldiers will fire a volley of gunfire or a volley of arrows -

Then he would have no choice but to flee.

As for Chenjia Town...

Although we can mobilize hundreds of strong men from all walks of life, if we call on other gangs, we may be able to gather thousands of people.

But these people definitely won't put in any effort.

Even if they were willing to die, these few hundred people would still be a "small" gap compared to Shu Yichao's overwhelming force of hundreds of thousands of troops.

Unless Chen Jialuo takes action himself and tries to assassinate.

But this risk is a bit...

If you try to do something wrong and end up dying, you will end up losing everything.

"...My Chen family has been established in Jiangnan for hundreds of years." Chen Jialuo said slowly.

"For generations, our ancestors have been farmers, scholars, and occasionally run a small business."

"It really couldn't be more dutiful."

"When the Jianzhou Tartars were encroaching on China, my Chen family was unable to raise their arms and rise up in rebellion."

"But he still secretly made friends with heroes in order to make a comeback."

"No matter how we look at it, there's no way we can offend the Heavenly King."

"Even though those scholars who knocked on the door were suspected of treason."

“We weren’t involved.”

"It may not implicate our Chen family."

"So, this matter..." Chen Jialuo hesitated.

"Shall we discuss this further?"
