29 Secretly Bought Bandits to Seize Power
Half a month passed in a flash.
At the mansion, Luo Cheng said to the Qianfu Elder Ma: "Old Ma, have the forces inside Guangling City figured out?"
In the past half a month since I came to Guangling City, almost no force took the initiative to come to the city lord's mansion to pay homage to Luo Cheng. It is conceivable how disrespected this city lord is.
In the past half a month, Luo Cheng also arranged for someone to deliberately release the news privately, saying that the city lord was a useless coward, for fear of being killed like previous city lords.
All the forces in Guangling City believe that Luo Cheng, the young new city lord, is very honest and obedient, and is a coward.
"Return to the city lord, my subordinates have figured it out." Lao Ma immediately handed over the report to Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng looked carefully and found that the forces in Guangling City were simply too complicated. Various sects, gangs, and various families had old trees, killer organizations, bounty hunters organizations, mercenary organizations... and many major forces had branches in Guangling City, and the branches of these major forces could not be moved for the time being.
There are ten major families in Guangling City, the richest, namely the Zhao family, the Qian family, the Sun family, the Li family, the Zhou family, the Wu family, the Zheng family, the Wang family, the Feng family, and the Chen family.
Let’s take action against the ten major families of Guangling City first, but behind the ten major families of Guangling City are the ten major sects around Guangling City. Each sect has a master of the king realm. The life level of the master of the king realm has changed. If you can live 200 years old, you must send at least 10,000 troops to encircle and suppress it if you want to kill the master of the king realm.
There are many private soldiers in the ten major families in Guangling City. There are a total of 20,000 troops in Guangling City, all of which are controlled by the people of the ten major families. Any family of the ten major families can kill the city lord of Guangling City.
No wonder the city lords of Guangling City died so tragically. If you don’t understand the situation in Guangling City, you are not honest. Isn’t this seeking death?
To take action against the ten major families one by one, first of all, we must control the 20,000 troops in Guangling City. To control the army of Guangling City, we must kill all the leaders arranged by the ten major families in Guangling City's army.
Luo Cheng immediately called Xiao Bao and ordered: "Xiao Bao, you secretly use money to buy some bandits and reveal the news about Guangling City Caravans to the bandits, and let them plunder the caravans' property around Guangling City."
Because Guangling City is a well-connected place of war, it has frequent trade and developed commerce, but there are many bandits around it.
Xiaobao was puzzled immediately. Luo Cheng was the city lord. Instead of destroying the bandits, he secretly used money to buy the bandits to rob them.
However, Luo Cheng asked him to do things and he would do it. He didn't ask the reason. Soon Xiao Bao secretly arranged for someone to buy the bandits outside Guangling City.
The next day, a small caravan from the Zhao family was looted by the bandits from Heifeng Village when they left Guangling City.
The next day, the Qian family's small caravan was also stolen.
In the next few days, the bandits from Heifeng Village specifically robbed the Zhao family and Qian family's caravans, and succeeded again and again.
The people from the Zhao family and Qian family hated each other and wanted to send troops to encircle and suppress Heifeng Village.
As the city lord, Luo Cheng went on the battle personally and brought 2,000 soldiers from Guanling City and 200 soldiers from Tiger Roar Camp to encircle and suppress Heifeng Village.
Among these 2,000 soldiers in Guangling City, Luo Cheng specially appointed people from the Sun family to lead the team.
The two thousand-man commanders of the Sun family and 20 centurions were very unhappy about helping the Qian family and the Zhao family to encircle and suppress Heifeng Village.
Heifeng Village specializes in robbing the Zhao family and Qian family’s caravans. What does it have to do with their Sun family?
In the afternoon, Luo Cheng deliberately asked the soldiers to set up camp not far from Heifeng Village, and began to eat and drink, secretly asking the soldiers of the Tiger Roar Camp to prepare tonight.
At this moment, deep in the forest, several leaders of Heifeng Village looked at the military camp in the distance and smiled: "The information is indeed correct. The new city lord brought two thousand people here."
"I'm still drinking in the military camp. I'm obviously not worried about our Heifeng Village going to sneak attack them. These officers and soldiers are too unwilling to take our Heifeng Village seriously, right?"
"We'll go to sneak attack their military camp tonight."
"good!"
In the evening, Luo Cheng and the two thousand-man commanders of the Sun family and 10 centurions were drinking happily. At this time, the people from Heifeng Village came.
"Kill!"
"Kill these officers and soldiers from Guangling City to death!"
···
The two hundred people from the Tiger Roar Camp immediately shouted: "Run, the 3,000 bandits from Heifeng Village are coming!"
"Run!"
"Run!"
"The city lord has run away!"
"Don't die, run away!"
Suddenly, 200 people were panicking in the military camp and ran towards Guangling City first. The morale of the army was weakened, and everyone drank a lot of wine and ordered to abandon the camp and run around.
More than 2,000 soldiers were immediately frightened by 800 bandits.
The bandits in Heifeng Village were all dumbfounded. These officers and soldiers in Guangling City were too useless.
At this moment, Luo Cheng and the two commanders of the Sun family and 10 centurions ran to an open space together.
"City Lord, the bandits are not chasing us, we don't have to run away!"
The people of the Sun family immediately despised the new city lord very much. Before the bandit came, he began to let everyone run away with him. He was simply a coward and a waste.
Luo Cheng smiled, "Yes, don't run away, you don't run away."
As he said that, Luo Cheng lifted his sword and rushed forward, killing two thousand men with the fifth level of the realm.
Luo Cheng had an attack power of 7,000, and he didn't need a second sword to kill them.
The remaining 10 centurions were also stunned and wanted to run away, but they were slowed down by Luo Cheng's W skill, and then Luo Cheng cut them all to death!
The next morning, all the officers and soldiers retreated. They were chased by bandits on the way, and 100 more died. There were 1,900 left in 2,000 officers and soldiers, of course not counting the 200 people in the Tiger Roar Camp.
To the outside world, Luo Cheng City Lord officially issued a ban, and the notice required that the casualties of soldiers in Guangling City be prohibited from discussing last night.
At the same time, Luo Cheng secretly arranged for people to spread rumors inside Guangling City, saying that last night, the soldiers in Guangling City fought against the bandits in Heifengzhai, and countless casualties were killed and injured, at least 500 people died, some said 800 people died, some said 1,000 people died, and some said that the entire army was wiped out.
In short, all 500 people from the Tiger Roar Camp were arranged to spread rumors.
At the same time, Luo Cheng arranged for people to recruit 100 new recruits, and then let the secretly recruited people as centurions, and the thousand-man commander was the one from the Tiger Xiao Camp. Then Luo Cheng began to conduct closed training on the grounds that the army of 2,000 people was too useless.
Then, a maid from the city lord's mansion deliberately revealed the news that the new city lord was chased by 800 bandits from Heifeng Village last night, and was so killed that he lost his armor and ran away in a panic.
···
Various information is flying everywhere, all kinds of rumors are spreading everywhere, confusing the public, making it difficult to tell how many people died, which one is true and that one is fake?
But everyone knows that the New City Lord was killed last night and ran away in a panic, because someone saw the New City Lord returning to Guangling City alone, confirming the fact that Luo Cheng was hunted by bandits.
Suddenly, all the forces in Guangling City were secretly laughing at Luo Cheng, the new city lord, who was so useless. 2,000 people went to encircle and suppress a 2,000 Black Wind Village, but they were actually chased by 800 bandits from Black Wind Village.
The head of the ten major families: "How stupid is this!"
"What a failed city lord!"
"waste!"
"The waste, I was actually hunted by bandits!"
