Compared to Wen Tiannian, who has no foundation, the Zheng family and the Zhang family are more willing to deal with the Zhou family. They are both aristocratic families in the Five Cities Alliance and have many connections with each other, so they will never be completely suppressed. This is the idea. The Zheng family and the Zhang family also know that Zhou Yang is no less powerful than Wen Tiannian, not to mention the ancestor of the Meng family, Meng Xu, the head of the Qiu family, Qiu Zhenggang, and even those from Black Rock City. Young people are also very strong. At this moment, Zhou Yang's men have completely surpassed Wen Tiannian in strength, so the Zheng family and Zhang family are very courteous. The Lord of Blackstone City, Zhou Yang, is not overbearing. He is very polite. Zhou Yang's behavior makes the two major families in Jade City feel at ease. While people from the Zheng family and Zhang family were talking to Zhou Yang, they were also observing Zhou Jin behind Zhou Yang. In the past, everyone knew that Zhou Jin, the young master of the Zhou family in Black Rock City, was a loser, while his disciple Ming Zhao was a young genius. Time, suddenly everything was reversed, Zhou Jin made all kinds of incredible achievements, and Ming Zhao disappeared. Everyone in Blackstone City still didn't believe what Zhou Jin had done, and the people in Jade City were even more suspicious. However, at the celebration of the ancestor of the Meng family, Zhou Jin injured the tyrannical Wu Jinbiao. This was real force. Seeing Meng Later, Meng Xu, the ancestor of the Meng family, proved from the side that the news that Zhou Jin cured the old illness of Meng Xu, the ancestor of the Meng family, may be true. These things made the people of the Zheng family and Zhang family pay special attention to Zhou Jin. Not to mention, Zhang Yiqiang once treated the ancestor of the Meng family. At that time, he felt that there was no way to cure the injury. The facts before him made him feel sad. Even more shocking. A late night raid, the battle ended in the early morning, the life and death fight passed in a short time, but the powerful alliance leader Wen Tiannian was killed, and the alliance leader's power in Yutu City was uprooted. Everyone was extremely excited, and no one felt the slightest emotion. Sleepy, all very awake. It was already dawn, and the aristocratic families in Jade City began to prepare breakfast for the team in Black Rock City. Zheng Jinggang, the head of the Zheng family, could still hold on, but Zhang Yiqiang of the Zhang family was exhausted. Even Meng Xinxin began to yawn, and everyone began to feel tired. Turn it up. At this moment, a clan warrior from the Zhou family hurriedly ran into the hall. He ran in and reported in a low voice: "Master, the master of Brown Land City has arrived. He came here accompanied by Elder Zhiqiang, and he only brought four people with him. Guard." Hearing this, everyone suddenly woke up and looked at Zhou Yang, who was sitting in the chief position. "Father, let Fatty Zhang come in directly. Seeing that everything is a foregone conclusion, Zhang Sheng will not resist and will surrender directly!" Zhou Jin suggested in Zhou Yang's ear. This scene was noticed by many people present. After hearing this, the city lord Zhou Yang didn't think much about it. He nodded directly and said: "Let Zhang Sheng come in directly." Everyone was stunned. Zheng Jinggang, the head of the Zheng family, quickly persuaded: "Zhou City Lord, it's better to make some arrangements to avoid any unnecessary fights after coming in. ""No need, I'm sure!" Zhou Yang said calmly. As soon as he said this, the head of the Zheng family did not dare to say anything more. . The reason why Zhou Yang is confident is that he has confidence in his son. Since Zhou Jin said so, he will definitely not make a mistake. Not long after, Zhang Sheng from Brown Soil City was brought here. Zhang Sheng was called Fatty Zhang. At this moment, his face was covered with oil and sweat, shining in the sun. As soon as he entered Jade Soil City, Zhang Sheng discovered Something was wrong, but it was impossible to turn back. After entering the alliance leader's mansion, Brownfield City Chief Sheng saw the traces of the battle, the damaged courtyard, the unfamiliar warrior guards, and smelled the bloody smell that had not dissipated. He knew that something was not good, but he saw the alliance leader last night. After receiving the token, he led his people to Jade City without any suspicion. The guards around him were not powerful warriors at all and had no protective effect. In the current situation, it is impossible to resist, so we have to follow obediently to the meeting hall. Seeing Blackstone City Lord Zhou Yang sitting at the top of the center, and seeing Blackstone City senior executives and Jade City senior executives on both sides, Zhang Sheng understood everything. Thinking of the alliance leader Wen Tiannian who returned from Blackstone City yesterday, he said fiercely They had to deal with the Zhou family in Black Rock City, but they didn¡¯t expect that everything would change overnight. He knew that Jade City was controlled by Black Rock City. Looking at this situation, the leader of the alliance Wen Tiannian and his men must have been completely destroyed. The overall situation was decided and he could not turn it around no matter what he did. Looking at Blackstone City Lord Zhou Yang who was sitting in the middle, Brown Soil City Lord seemed to see a huge mountain, but there was always someone on the edge of this huge mountain that he couldn't ignore, even though the young man lowered his head and looked very low-key. It seems that that person is Zhou Jin, the young leader of the Zhou family. Yesterday, the alliance leader Wen Tiannian said that Zhou Jin of the Zhou family should not be underestimated. Zhang Sheng still felt that it was a big fuss. Looking at it today, it is true! Fatty Zhang walked into the hall tremblingly. Before he could speak, he heard Zhou Jin say loudly: "Wen Tiannian colluded with the black-blooded gangsters."The horse thief wanted to betray the five cities. This conspiracy was discovered by Black Rock City. Now Wen Tiannian and his party members Wu Jinbiao and others were killed in the stubborn resistance. City Lord Zhang, as Wen Tiannian's confidant, do you have any idea of ??his conspiracy? participate? " When Zhou Jin said the four words "black blood and yellow sand", Zhuang Sheng of Brown Soil City had collapsed on the ground. After hearing the last question, Zhang Sheng hurriedly got up, kowtowed there and said with a cry. : "The younger one has absolutely no involvement. Leader Wen, no, the younger one knows nothing about the deeds of Wen Tiannian, the thief. Wen Tiannian deserves his punishment. Leader Zhou has done justice for heaven, which is very satisfying! " Everyone in the hall showed disgust. Although Zhang Sheng was an accountant, his martial arts was not weak. Wen Tiannian was not kind to him. He gave him a rich and big city as the city lord, but this man had no intention of resisting and taking revenge. Bloody, he directly cleared himself of his responsibilities and scolded Wen Tiannian. It was really shameless. Zhou Jin showed a smile on his face and continued: "Zhang Sheng, now I give you a chance to make up for your mistakes. You can do it now. Transfer the token from the lord of Blackstone City and write a handwritten letter saying that you can no longer serve as the lord of the city. The position of city lord will be temporarily represented by Zhou Zhiqiang, the elder of the Zhou family, and arrange for the warrior teams from Jade Earth City and Blackstone City to take over the city defense. Can you do it? ? " Brown Land City Chief Sheng Sheng was stunned for a moment. He looked up and met the gaze of Zhou Yang, the head of the Zhou family. He felt a mountain of momentum coming over him. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the people from the Meng family and the Qiu family on both sides. Everyone looked at each other eagerly, and Zhang Sheng was very scared. He knew that if he didn't write, he might be broken into pieces. Thinking of this, he hurriedly shouted: "The younger one is willing to write, the younger one is willing to hand over the token!" " City Lord Zhou Yang nodded and winked at the people below. Someone immediately came to Zhang Sheng with a pen and paper. Brownfield City advocate Sheng obediently handed over the City Lord's token as a token, and then began to write a letter. " With the order, With cards and tokens, you can mobilize the power in the city and send warrior teams from Black Rock City and Jade Earth City to take over. Firstly, you can firmly control Brown Soil City. Secondly, you can make the local power in Jade Earth City weak and convenient for the people in Black Rock City. Control. Seeing Zhang Sheng obediently obeying the instructions and writing, the city lord Zhou Yang looked back at his son, and everything was correct for Zhou Jin. Originally, Zhou Yang was ready to attack Brown Soil City head-on, but he didn't. Thinking of following Zhou Jin's plan and simply sending out a messenger, Zhou Yang was filled with emotion as to how many surprises this son had waiting for others to discover. Others in the hall thought even more. Everyone could understand what Jin said to Zhang Sheng in the hall after thinking about it carefully. Everyone was amazed that Zhou Jin of the Zhou family was so talented and so well-planned that the Black Rock City team captured Jade City. After killing the alliance leader, although the Zheng family and Zhang family in Yutucheng had a low profile, they did not completely surrender. They knew that if Zhou Yang wanted to be the alliance leader and maintain stability, he had to rely on them. With this, they could In exchange for the desired benefits, not only the people in Jade City thought so, but the Qiu family in Black Rock City also had this idea. Even Meng Xu, the ancestor of the Meng family, was also thinking about what kind of benefits the Meng family could get. But they saw Zhou Jin. Regarding what the brown soil city leader Sheng said, and thinking about Zhou Jin's series of actions and arrangements last night, they gave up all thoughts, because they knew that Zhou Jin had no plans left, and everyone's thoughts and schemes would definitely be thought of by the other party, or would they? Just obey the orders honestly. Everyone has this idea in their hearts. The leader of the Five Cities Alliance must be Zhou Yang. Zhou Jin certainly did not make such an arrangement out of the blue. The Brown Soil City advocate is Sheng Wen. Tiannian was born as an accountant. Although he was also a warrior, as an accountant, calculation has become instinctive. After seeing the situation clearly, such a person will never take risks and risk his life. Zhang Sheng will only hand over the token and follow the instructions. After writing the letter, he was taken down. Since he was so obedient and there was no blood on his hands, his life would definitely be saved and he would not suffer much. The warriors from Black Rock City and Jade Earth City gathered together, led by the elders of the Zhou family. , rushed to Brown Soil City to take over the city. At this moment, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Under this situation, the four cities of Black Stone, Yutu, Red Rock, and Brown Soil have been brought under control. The overall situation of the Five Cities Alliance has been stabilized. Next That's the details. Relaxation and exhaustion came over. Except for a few strong men, everyone else began to take turns to rest. The fierce fighting and killing this night was only carried out in the leader's mansion, and there was no major damage to other places in Yutucheng. The people in Tucheng returned to normal life after the initial fear. However, the city gate cannot be opened yet. Jade Tucheng is close to the business road, and there are many outside traders in the city. They cannot be allowed to leave until the situation is clear. Uncontrolled spread of news. After everyone had breakfast, some time later, the second batch of reinforcements from Black Rock City arrived at Jade City. This time Zhou Yang also mobilized all the forces left behind,Only Meng Dasheng of the Meng family was left behind in Black Rock City, led by Meng Zongyuan, the head of the Meng family. When the sun passed noon, the messenger sent to Huangsha City came back. The people who went to Huangsha City were the two elders of the Meng family of Black Rock City and the Zhang family of Yutucheng. Although they were falsely delivering orders, when they went, The two elders are not worried, because Huangsha City is one of the five cities, but it is not even comparable to the big families in the other four cities. There is no danger at all if you go there. But when they came back to resume their duties, the two elders had a look of fear on their faces, and the Lord of Huangsha City did not follow them back. "City Lord, before we entered Huangsha City, we found a black blood yellow sand flag flying at the top of Huangsha City. There were black blood and yellow sand horse thieves patrolling outside the city. I don't know whether Huangsha City was occupied or surrendered. I don¡¯t dare to enter rashly and come back in a hurry!¡± After saying this, even the steady Zhou Yang¡¯s expression changed, and the others were even more shocked. Huangsha City was established to guard against the black-blooded Huangsha Cavalry, so that¡¯s why it¡¯s there! It developed from a small outpost into a city, but now, it is occupied by the black-blooded yellow sand horse thieves. The core area of ??the Five Cities Alliance is directly exposed to the threat of the black-blooded yellow sand horse thieves, leaving these aristocratic families of the Five Cities Alliance Why not be alarmed? Zhou Jin pondered there for a while and then said: "It seems that the Sixth Ghost of Huangsha who escaped yesterday directly occupied the Huangsha City after escaping back to the Wuliang Sand Sea." In the fierce battle at night, the black-blooded Huangsha Cavalry The Sixth Ghost of Yellow Sand escaped alone on horseback. Others borrowed horse power and were very fast. They would definitely cross the mountain and enter the desert first. Moreover, the Sixth Ghost of Yellow Sand saw the power of Black Rock City attacking the alliance leader's mansion and knew that Wen Tiannian's situation had already changed. Honkai, no matter what kind of agreement the two parties have had, will not be realized, taking advantage of the chaos to seize Huangsha City is the most advantageous option. "Black blood and yellow sand, that group of horse thieves?" Several people from the two major families in Yutucheng exclaimed. They were not told all the details of last night's battle. They were shocked when they heard the name. After learning what happened to the Black Rock City team last night, both the Zheng family and the Zhang family in Yutucheng were furious and cursed: "This bastard really colluded with the horse thieves and deserved to die!" After calming down, everyone was still flustered, even though this occasion should have It was Zhou Yang who had the highest status to calm people's hearts, but Zhou Yang, the Lord of Blackstone City, turned to look at Zhou Jin and said, "Xiao Jin, I think you are confident. Come and tell everyone!" Zhou Yang has completely trusted Zhou Jin. He didn't even mind that this would damage his prestige. Everyone in the meeting hall looked over in surprise, wondering who was in charge of the Zhou family, and why the young master of the Zhou family looked more like the head of the family. Zhou Jin was also surprised, and then he felt grateful. On such an occasion, for trusting him so much on such a major matter, even though the relationship between father and son was extremely rare, only Yuntian Zong had given him such trust in the past. "Yes, father!" Zhou Jin agreed respectfully, stepped forward, nodded to everyone in the meeting hall, and then explained loudly: "The Five-City Alliance originally only had four cities, Black Stone, Jade Earth, Red Rock, The brown soils are all on the east side of the mountain range, supporting each other and forming an integrated whole. The Yellow Sand City was later established to guard against the horse thieves in the endless sand sea. It is on the west side of the mountain range, away from the other four cities. " Everyone in the meeting hall exchanged glances with each other. The three Zheng families looked at each other. Young Master Zheng Douluo raised his voice and said: "Brother Zhou, if you are outside, you are also a member of the Five Cities. The horse thieves have taken over Huangsha City. How can our other four cities be safe and sound?" Although he was making sense, there was a hint of provocation in his words. , everyone could understand. Everyone's eyes turned to Zhou Jin again. Zhou Jin nodded with a smile and said, "In a few years, I will definitely be safe and sound." No one expected that Zhou Jin would answer so affirmatively, and Zheng Douluo's face suddenly changed. It became ugly, thinking that the opponent was retaliating tit-for-tat. Zhou Jin had no intention of fighting with him. He just smiled and explained: "Why have the black-blooded yellow sand horse thieves never attacked the Five Cities Alliance? Is it because the yellow sand city is adjacent to the endless sand sea?" , poses a threat to them? No, it's because the horse thieves have clear judgment. They know that if they attack the Five Cities Alliance, they will win, but they will pay a heavy price for this victory!" The meeting hall gradually became quiet, and everyone listened to Zhou Jin. It was a very methodical analysis, and I was amazed in my heart. No wonder heroes like Zhou Yang, the Lord of Blackstone City, let Zhou Jin talk about it. It is indeed extraordinary! "The strength of Huangsha City is only a fraction of any of the four cities on the east side of the mountain range. Huangsha City is on the west side of the mountain range, and it is very difficult for the other four cities to support it. But the four cities on the east side of the mountain range are connected and supported by each other, and they are integrated into each other. If you want to attack, it will take a lot of energy to browse the mountains, and then you will face the defense of the four cities. With such a comparison of strength, what difference does it make with or without Huangsha City? In the past, the two sides were able to maintain a balance, and now the two sides can continue to maintain a balance! "Zhou Jin said loudly. After Zhou Jin finished speaking, everyone in the meeting hall looked a little confused.Relax, seeing everyone's reaction, Zheng Douluo knew that his provocation was ineffective, but he was still not convinced, and continued: "There was indeed a balance in the past, but after all, those horse thieves still occupy Huangsha City. In the past, But there has never been anything like this!" Zheng Jinggang, the head of the Zheng family, turned around and glared at his son. Everyone could tell that Zhou Yang, the lord of Blackstone City, would be the leader of the four cities next, and Zhou Jin would also become the leader of the five cities. Young Master of the Alliance, you still provoke such a character many times. Are you afraid of your longevity? Last night¡¯s incredible raid by Black Rock City¡¯s team and a series of ruthless tactics have left several forces in Jade City in awe. Over there, Zheng Douluo was glared at by his father and immediately did not dare to say anything. Over there, Zhou Jin smiled and continued to explain. It was not that he wanted to retaliate against the provocation of this boy from the Zheng family, but that he wanted to explain the situation clearly so that everyone in the four cities could feel at ease. Let his father's position as leader of the alliance in the future be more stable. "Wen Tiannian colluded with the horse thieves and were discussing the conspiracy last night. The sixth ghost of Huangsha escaped from Yutu City. He must have thought that there was internal strife among our five cities. They could take advantage of the opportunity and occupy Huangsha City. But now our four cities The situation has stabilized, what else can the horse thieves do?" Zhou Jin asked with a smile. Without waiting for anyone else to answer, Zhou Jin continued: "And the reason why the black-blooded and yellow-sand horse thieves did not attack is not only because our four cities are integrated with each other, but also because of the 'Northern Blue Port'." Hearing this name, Everyone in the meeting hall was shocked and listened more carefully. "The four cities of Black Stone, Jade Soil, Brown Soil, and Red Rock are located near the trade road. Firstly, they can serve as transit points on the trade road. Secondly, they can protect this trade road. Because of us, the trade in this direction of Northern Blue Harbor can be smooth. There is no obstacle. If the Black Blood Yellow Sand horse thieves come and block the trade route, it will definitely cause damage to the business of Northern Blue Harbor. Northern Blue Harbor will definitely not sit idly by. It is because of this connection that Black Blood Yellow Sand dare not mess up. Come!" Everyone in the discussion hall nodded. Zhou Jin's analysis was reasonable. After that, everyone felt that the current situation was safe. Zheng Douluo, who kept asking questions, opened and closed his mouth, and finally lowered his head, but Zhang Yiqiang, the "old and young master" of the Zhang family, hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Zhou Jin, what you just said is indeed reasonable, but What you said is all speculation. Why should Northern Blue Harbor support us? "Zhang Yiqiang is in his sixties and has no ambition to be competitive, but he is thoughtful and carefully considered and analyzed Zhou Jin's words. The question was reasonable. Everyone looked at Zhou Jin. The people in the meeting hall who really had doubts and worries were actually the people from Jade City and Red Rock City, while everyone from Black Rock City didn't care at all. For them, If Zhou Jin said there was no problem, then there must be no problem. During this period of time, everyone in Blackstone City had formed an impression that Zhou Jin could not be wrong. "Young Master Zhang has a good question. I was just about to say this. Our Five Cities Alliance must form an alliance with Northern Blue Harbor so that they can help support us!" Zhou Jin replied with a smile. The meeting hall fell silent, and then there was an uproar. The Five Cities Alliance was self-contained and had always been independent. Zhou Jin's proposal clearly caused everyone to lose their independence. It was said to be an alliance, but with such a huge force like Blueport in the Northern Territory, the Five Cities Alliance had only formed an alliance in the past. Can become the other party's vassal. After saying these words, even Blackstone City Lord Zhou Yang and everyone in Blackstone City changed their expressions, but Zhou Jin ignored everyone's reactions and solemnly said: "What are you worried about? Are you worried that Blue Harbor in the Northern Territory will take the opportunity to annex us? Black Blood Yellow Sand There is a mountain range between the horse thieves and us, but there is no barrier between the Northern Blue Harbor and us. If he wanted to annex us, he would have swallowed us up long ago. Why has he not taken action? It is because this force only wants to do business and make a fortune. If you don¡¯t want to expand your territory, please think about it again. What does our Five Cities Alliance rely on for its prosperity today? Is it because of the merchants and transit trade along the trade route of Blue Harbor in the Northern Territory? ¡± Everyone in the meeting hall! Their expressions changed from stunned to thoughtful. Even the warrior guards in front of the door were listening carefully. What Zhou Jin said had never been thought of by them before, but it was extremely correct! "That's right, when horse thieves come, they want to burn, kill, loot, and sit on the ground to collect money. But Northern Blue Harbor only wants to do business. When we didn't form an alliance with them, there were a lot of benefits. If we form an alliance, we will definitely get more benefits. We are prosperous, but why should Blueport of the Northern Territory form a sincere alliance with us, and why should we believe that we are sincere?" said the head of a small family in Yutucheng. Zhou Jin took a step forward, stood in front of Zhou Yang's seat, and said solemnly: "If I join the "Scale Shark Guards" in Blueport, Northern Territory, if young people from each city in our five-city alliance go to join the "Scale Shark Guards", "Shark Guard", they will naturally believe in our sincerity!"
