Jinyiwei's Killing God System

Chapter 119 Alliance
After the three sat down again, Yan Long revealed the true intention of coming to Yanziwu this time.

After An Xiuyun heard this, she didn't speak.

An Xiyan was also silent.

After a while, An Xiyan said to Yan Long: "Master Yan Duo, do you know why our Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce has been swallowing up the Changli branch of the Red Gun Association? Even when they raised such harsh demands on our Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce After the conditions, we still chose to compromise."

Without hesitation, Yan Long said: "Because what you are afraid of is not the Changli branch, but the entire Red Spear Club behind them!"

An Xiyan nodded and said: "With the strength of our Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce, we can still protect ourselves if we have to deal with the Changli sub-helm. But once the Red Spear Association's main helm intervenes, the situation will not be optimistic."

Yan Long said: "President An, your concern is right, but your prediction of the situation is completely wrong."

A look of surprise flashed across An Xiyan's eyes, and she asked, "I would like to hear more about it."

Yan Long calmly said: "Because no matter whether you compromise or not, the head of the Red Spear Club will annex your Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce sooner or later."

"Why?" An Xiuyun was obviously also very concerned about this question, so she interrupted and asked.

"Because your Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce is too rich, you have a large number of ships and a wide range of business connections, even surpassing the Changli sub-helm of the Red Gun Association. These are necessary conditions for conducting ocean trade and opening up routes. And some of you control Although the coastline is not conducive to the entry and exit of cargo ships, it can form a corner guard with the coastline of the Changli Wharf of the Red Gun Club, complementing each other. All these benefits add up, like a piece of fat in the mouth of a wolf, and the Red Gun Club will inevitably Annex you. Because they have to find a strong point in shipping to fight against our sky gang!" Yan Long said the last sentence, especially emphasizing his tone.

An Xiyan sighed softly, and said in a sad and angry tone: "Tigers and wolves are all around you. Both your Sky Gang and the Red Spear Club are tigers and wolves! They both have plans to annex our chamber of commerce, right?"

"No, you are wrong!" Yan Long said firmly.

After hearing this, An Xiyan raised her head and asked in a stubborn tone: "Isn't it?!"

Yan Long met her gaze and said firmly: "Red Spear will annex you out of strategic considerations. But our Sky Gang is different from them. Because we don't need it at all!!"

"Hmph, tell me, why didn't the Sky Gang covet the hearts of our Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce?" An Xiyan said.

Yan Long calmly said: "As we all know, the forces of the Changkong Gang are basically inside the pass, and the forces of the Red Spear Society are basically outside the pass. The Changkong gang has countless water and land piers in various parts of Daming, and our Haifeng Pier in Shitan Town is just a very common one. In terms of the number of ships and the wide range of connections, the Changkong Gang is more than a thousand times stronger than the Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce. For such a small benefit, why would the Changkong Gang risk the world's infamy for robbing the Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce by force."

An Xiyan remained silent.

Yan Long continued: "The Red Spear Society is different from us. Their main force is outside the pass, in order to expand their influence inside the pass. They urgently need to consolidate and expand their influence in the waters near Shanhaiguan Pass. However, due to their extreme lack of shipping power , so that they urgently need a large fleet that can support their sea blueprint to help them lay the foundation. Your Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce is the best choice!"

An Xiyan pursed her lips, and said: "Although the Red Spear Association is strong, our Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce is not just paper, they can't scare us."

Yan Long sighed: "Although the Changli sub-helm of the Red Spear Association is standing still, as soon as the time comes, their main helm will send people to intervene in this matter. Even if your Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce resists to the end, it is nothing more than a team." It's just a situation where jade and stone burn together."

After hearing this, An Xiyan said with a pale face, "I...I..."

Seeing An Xiyan's discomfort, An Xiuyun gently stroked An Xiyan's hair, then stared at Yan Long with sharp eyes and said, "Can you guarantee that after this cooperation, you will be able to fulfill your promise?"

Yan Long said solemnly: "Senior, as long as you capture the Changli sub-helm of the Red Gun Association, I, Yan Long, guarantee that your Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce will always remain independent, and you will have unimpeded access to Haifeng Wharf, Changli Wharf, Leting County, and Changli County." , the piers and routes of the Changkong Gang in Shijiutuo and Xiangyun Island will also be open to you. And you only need to do one thing for us!"

"What's the matter?" An Xiyan asked.

"Because your ships are still free to enter the Changli Wharf of the Red Gun Society, I want your ships to secretly help us transport some people and a batch of things there." Yan Long said.

"What?" An Xiyan asked.

"artillery!"

……

When Yan Long left Yanziwu, it was almost dusk.

An Xiyan watched him leave until the back was no longer visible, and she was still reluctant to part.

An Xiuyun walked up to her, patted her cheek with a smile and said, "Hey, our Yan'er has finally found someone she likes."

An Xiyan, who always liked to joke with her aunt, lowered her head this time and said sadly, "It's just that what he cares about is the cooperation with our chamber of commerce."

An Xiuyun heard this, put her arms around An Xiyan's shoulders, and comforted her with a smile: "Don't worry, girl! Our family Xiyan is such a beautiful flower, it has been a few lifetimes for him to be able to see his pile of cow dung." It's a blessing, if he doesn't agree, my aunt will beat him to the ground."

An Xiyan's closest aunt in her life was this aunt. Hearing what she said was interesting, she smiled again.

……

Yan Long returned to Shitan Town to split the helm.

It was Lu Gang who saw him head-on.

Lu Gang grinned his mouth wide, as if he had just swallowed a few catties of honey, smiling so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes.

Wang Shuang teased him: "You ate shit, why are you smiling like a dog!"

Lu Gang said with a smile: "The rudder master, the deputy rudder master, great joy... great joy."

Yan Long said with a smile: "Don't be a fool, let the fart go!"

Lu Gang said: "I just bought four Shenwei cannons made in Portugal, as well as a batch of gunpowder and shells through a second-tier dealer who imported seafood. The price is so cheap that you won't believe it!" He kept laughing, then wiped his saliva, and started talking again.

After listening for a while, Yan Long finally understood why Lu Gang was so excited.It turned out that there was a second-rate dealer who specialized in reselling all kinds of imported goods from other places. He got a batch of firearms from a group of Portuguese. He planned to transport them to the capital area, and then entrusted his connections to trade with the Ming army.

After arriving at the pier to unload the goods, these people went to the casino in the town to gamble all night, but they lost a lot and owed a lot of debt.As a last resort, they had to use firearms to pay off the debt, but these firearms were different from other goods, not everyone could swallow them, so the casino owner didn't buy it at all, and was about to beat the second-rate dealer and his entourage to death.

After Lu Gang heard the news, he immediately rushed over to stop the casino owner as if he had found a treasure.

After negotiating with the casino owner, he paid off the gambling debts for the group of second-rate dealers at half the price, and took over all their firearms by the way.

After Yan Long heard this, he smiled and said, "Lu Gang, you are truly a lucky general. Add these four cannons to the six that were seized from the battleship before, and now we can mobilize ten cannons. , This is almost a war of no small scale."

Lu Gang said: "Helmsman, our Shenhuoqi has recently sailed the ship to the open sea to let the gunners train. The brothers are quite familiar with their craft. I just don't know when I will have the opportunity to actually fight. Every time I look at Hailongqi Brothers in the war, there are rewards for silver. Brothers are very impatient, helmsman, when can we pull them out to practice?"

Yan Long smiled and said, "It will be there soon."

Lu Gang's eyes sparkled, and he said excitedly, "When?"

Yan Long said: "Tomorrow, people from the Weiyuan Chamber of Commerce will come to contact you. You organize some capable, efficient, and strict-mouthed brothers to be responsible for sending these artillery to their cargo ships. The specific operations will be handled by Deputy Helmsman Wang and you. explain."

Wang Shuang and Lu Gang took orders, and went to Shenhuo Banner to discuss specific matters.

Then, Yan Long said to Dian Wei: "Tomorrow we will go to Leting County. You go and tell Feiying Banner Sikong Xing to take all his subordinates with us."

Dian Wei asked, "My lord, what are we going to do in Leting County? Isn't it already preparing to attack the Red Spear Society's Changli sub-helm?"

Yan Long said with a smile: "Isn't there a sub-rudder in Changli in Leting County? Isn't it better for us to follow him and go back to the 'Steel Fort' where they are divided?"
