That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 21 Mission: Impossible

  In the rivers and lakes of Changling County, there have always been only three first-class masters known to the world. They are all at the helm of two clans and gangs.

   As for the strength of the three first-class masters, it is unknown. After all, the three of them have never fought head-to-head.

As for whether there are any first-class masters in Changling County, no one knows, but Gu Qingci has some guesses. The red-sleeved Tsing Yi should be a first-rate master, because even now that Gu Qingci breaks through and becomes a second-rate warrior, he still can't see through Qing Yi. .

  However, there is no doubt about the strength of the first-rate warriors. Now Gu Qingci is facing a second-rate warrior and a first-rate warrior. These two are Ling Qunyun and You Biyu from the Flying Eagle Gang.

  One is a veteran first-rate warrior, and the other is a leader among second-rate warriors. It is indeed a piece of cake to come to Gu Qingci's mansion without alarming anyone.

  Ling Qunyun sized up Gu Qingci for a long time before saying: "I didn't expect Master Gu to be a hidden master, but it surprised Ling."

To be honest, Ling Qunyun was really taken aback. He originally thought that his son Ling Feng was considered a genius, but now he saw Gu Qingci and knew what it meant to be someone beyond others, and there is a sky beyond the sky. Gu Qingci's age was about the same as Ling Feng's. , but Ling Qunyun roughly guessed that Gu Qingci was already a second-rate warrior, and, most importantly, Gu Qingci was a county magistrate with a dignified Jinshi background, so he was both civil and military.

   Gu Qingci was not too surprised that Ling Qunyun was able to see through his own strength. After all, Ling Qunyun was a first-class master, and he was the kind who fought all the year round.

   "Hehe," Gu Qingci smiled lightly, and said, "Come out to play around and have no capital, that's tantamount to being tired of work. I think Gang Leader Ling should understand it best?"

  Ling Qunyun didn't say a word, strength determines everything, this principle is best understood by people like him who have worked hard from the bottom.

  Gu Qingci put down the teacup, and said calmly: "This county also knows the purpose of Gang Leader Ling's visit today. You are busy, and I am busy, so this county will get straight to the point."

  Ling Qunyun nodded and said, "Master Gu, please explain clearly."

   Gu Qingci said slowly: "Does Leader Ling know that the Cheng family has formed an alliance with the Li family?"

  Ling Qunyun was slightly startled, and said, "Master Gu, isn't it alarmist?"

  Gu Qingci shook his head and said: "I don't need to lie about this kind of thing. I have already got the exact information. The Cheng and Li families have already formed an alliance."

Ling Qunyun frowned. He was not sure about the Cheng family alone. If the two families joined forces, his Flying Eagle Gang would undoubtedly die. You have a plan in mind, you must have a plan, right?"

   "Of course," Gu Qingci nodded and said, "However, I just don't know if Gang Leader Ling dares to fight to the death?"

  Ling Qunyun smiled lightly, and said: "I also ask Mr. Gu for advice. You should understand that I don't have much choice now."

  Gu Qingci sneered, and said: "Then let's form an alliance and destroy the two families at once, but before that, let's clarify some interests first!"

  Ling Qunyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since Gu Qingci raised this question, it means that Gu Qingci is sincerely forming an alliance. On the contrary, if Gu Qingci does not mention interests at all, he will doubt Gu Qingci's purpose instead.

When Gu Qingci saw Ling Qunyun's appearance, he knew that Ling Qunyun believed it. He also deliberately asked this question to lull Ling Qunyun and prevent Ling Qunyun from becoming suspicious. After all, his target was not only the Cheng family, but also the entire Changling County. .

  Ling Qunyun nodded, and said: "My brothers are still clear about their accounts, Mr. Gu, please speak directly!"

"Okay," Gu Qingci smiled slightly, and said: "Master Ling also knows that I am a member of the imperial court. What I want is not in conflict with you. All the land belongs to you, but I want 70% of the property of Cheng and Li. How about it?" ?”

  Ling Qunyun thought about it for a while, then nodded and agreed. Their gang really valued the territory and some business routes of the two families, but Gu Qingci didn't need it. After all, the Feiying Gang still took the lead.

  Although 70% is a bit more, but in the current situation, it is not appropriate to have a gap with Gu Qingci because of a little money. What's more, Gu Qingci is not too greedy, which is within his acceptable range.

   "However," Gu Qingci said suddenly, "the county has one more request."

  Ling Qunyun frowned secretly, and said, "Sir, please tell me."

Gu Qingci said: "Don't worry, Leader Ling, this matter is not difficult, that is, after the matter is completed, the Flying Eagle Gang will be the real master of the underground in Changling County. At that time, Leader Ling will need to give more merit to the county. got it!"

  Ling Qunyun smiled lightly, and said: "So it is such a thing, even if the adults don't say it, I should do it based on our friendship against the enemy together."

  In fact, this kind of thing is a very common unspoken rule. Officials in many places are like this. For the sake of political achievements, cooperating with local forces is not a unilateral payment. Officials can provide official convenience.

   Gu Qingci laughed and said: "That's fine, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

  Ling Qunyun nodded, and said: "Now, Mr. Gu, can you talk about your strategy?"

Gu Qingci poked the charcoal with a shovel, and said: "The Li family has always lived outside the city. This natural geographical location gave them a plan to attack the Flying Eagle Gang from behind, and the Cheng family will take the opportunity to attack from the front. Flying Eagle Gang, attacking from front to back, the Flying Eagle Gang will surely be doomed!"

After hearing Gu Qingci's words, Ling Qunyun's face was calm, but his back felt cold, and he broke out in a cold sweat. This strategy is not very clever, but it is the most useful, because before that, they did not expect Cheng and Li's family will form an alliance.

   Moreover, even if they form an alliance, they will subconsciously think that the two partners are attacking the Feiying Gang together. Now that Gu Qingci said it, he realized that if it is as Gu Qingci said, the Feiying Gang will really be over.

  The Li family in the two clans is a little special. The headquarters of this family has never been placed in the city, but in a big mountain villa outside the county seat of Changling County.

The Flying Eagle Gang's location is not in the middle of the city, but close to the outside of the city. If the Cheng family attacks from the front, it will definitely attract all the Flying Eagle Gang's combat power. The Eagle Gang was caught off guard, and had nowhere to escape.

  Ling Qunyun took a deep breath and said, "I don't know what your plan is, Mr. Gu?"

"My plan is very simple." Gu Qingci put down the shovel and said, "I have received news that the Cheng and Li families will take action in the evening three days later. Leader Ling, you will bring people to ambush the Cheng family in the city, and I will Lead people to ambush the Li family outside the city, and then take down the two families in one fell swoop."

  Ling Qunyun frowned, and said: "Master Gu, your strategy is very clever, but there is a problem?"

   "Say it!" Gu Qingci said.

   "I don't doubt your strength, Mr. Gu, but the number of guards you have recruited is not large, and the combat power is not enough. I am afraid that when the time comes to ambush the Li family, I will be beaten instead." Ling Qunyun said.

Gu Qingci smiled and said: "The leader of the Ling gang knows that this county is a member of the imperial court, and they have bows and crossbows in their hands. This thing is not very effective against masters like the Ling gang leader, but it is a magical weapon against ordinary warriors. , what's more, the Li family is here to help, he can't do his best, and it's not like I don't have masters in my hands."

"That's right," You Biyu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly slapped his head and said, "Brother, Mr. Gu is right, he has a bow and crossbow, which will definitely make the Li family run around with their heads in their arms. Those who live in the Li family, let us ambush the Cheng family, and when the Cheng family is settled, we can still help Mr. Gu."

   "That's right," Gu Qingci said with a faint smile, "I think Chief Ling, it won't take long for you to ambush the Cheng family, not to mention, I have arranged a backup for you at the Cheng family!"

   "Second hand?" Ling Qunyun asked in surprise, "What second hand?"

  Gu Qingci touched his nose and said, "Master Ling, think about it, how can I get the crossbow?"

  Ling Qunyun suddenly said: "Pang Shilong is your man, is he an undercover agent?"

   "What do you think?" Gu Qingci said flatly.

  Ling Qunyun said pleasantly: "Master Gu really has a plan, and I admire you. Since your lord has already arranged it to this point, I don't have any hesitation. Do it!"
