Chapter 414 - 414 401 Assembling the Troops

414: Chapter 401: Assembling the Troops 414: Chapter 401: Assembling the Troops “Yes, big brother!” the middle-aged man also stood up and said, “Most of the territory currently occupied by the Heavenly Reversal Gang was originally ours.

It’s only natural that we take it back!”

“Alas!” the elderly man with white hair sighed and said, “It’s all due to poor decision-making, poor decision-making!”

The old man was somewhat annoyed.

He had underestimated the Heavenly Reversal Gang from the start, never expecting that with their little power, they could beat the Qiao Gang like stray dogs.

It seemed that the world now belonged to the young.

Suddenly, the old fellow felt truly old and felt he should no longer occupy the seat of the leader of the Alliance Gang.

“Big brother, do say something!” the middle-aged man said anxiously, “If we don’t demonstrate a will to fight and win now, it might be too difficult for us to turn things around!”

“Do you think we can ever return to our former status?” the old man asked with a faint smile, “The Tongzhou City of today is not the Tongzhou City of the past.

With the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s involvement, our coalition of dozens of gangs opposing the Qiao Gang can no longer regain its past status!”

“Why not?!” the middle-aged man was startled and said, “We are an alliance formed by dozens of gangs.

Just by rallying our members, I believe lots of people will join our Alliance Gang.

Are we still afraid of an external gang?”

“Heh, are those who join our Alliance Gang coming here to die?” the old man chuckled.

“Big brother, you are old!” the middle-aged man couldn’t help but look gloomily at the old man.

“Yes, I am indeed old!” the old man said with a faint smile, “That’s why I feel I see more through things than you all.

Don’t worry, I will relinquish the position of the leader of the Alliance Gang tonight.

I hope you all take care of yourselves!”

“Big brother, don’t go!” several middle-aged men sitting nearby all stood up.

“Second brother, how can you talk to big brother like that?” some people criticized the middle-aged man who had been disrespectful.

“Don’t blame him!” the old man immediately stood up from his chair and said, “From the growth of the Heavenly Reversal Gang, I see something important.

A gang, just like a country, needs a righteous leader as well as young blood.

Fresh blood is the soul of a gang.

I think I am truly old.

Therefore, I announce my formal retirement!”

“Ah!?” everyone stood up, trying to dissuade the old man.

However, no matter how hard they tried, the old man wouldn’t relent.

With no other choice, they had to go along with the old man’s wishes.

After all, the Alliance Gang would have to continue without him.

Subsequently, the Alliance Gang began a fierce election convention.

After rounds of competition, a middle-aged man named Chen Gang emerged as the new leader of the Alliance Gang.

Chen Gang was a radical, and he was close friends with the middle-aged man who had spoken out of turn.

Since the two had similar temperaments, as soon as Chen Gang took office, he immediately issued two orders: “Brothers, our Alliance Gang must take back the position and territory that belong to us.

So, I need everyone to help gather more brothers; we need more manpower and also funding.”

“People are not a problem, but do we have the money?” a man on the side asked, “Haven’t the funds of our Alliance Gang been almost depleted?

In the several major battles with the Qiao Gang, we’ve already lost a lot of territory, and without territory, it means no revenue.

Now with the Heavenly Reversal Gang arriving, even the few places we had left are gone; right now…

we basically have no income left.

We’re running out of resources!”

“Yes, so we now need to make a final effort!” Chen Gang gritted his teeth and said, “Everyone is aware of the great difficulty we’re facing.

If we do not turn this around, we’ll be waiting to die.

It’s better to make an all-out effort than to wait for death!”

“Alright!” at that moment, the radicals all stood up.

Reluctantly, everyone had to agree.

In the following days, people from the Alliance Gang recruited troops all over, mustering forces.

This news quickly reached the ears of Qiao Si and also Ye Chen.

After his last defeat, Qiao Si had been wary of the Heavenly Reversal Gang, too frightened to make a move against them.

He had previously thought that the Heavenly Reversal Gang was just a mob.

Now Qiao Si understood that this so-called ‘mob’ could indeed rout him thoroughly.

“Big brother, those bastards from the Alliance Gang are starting to gather people again!” a little brother rushed into Qiao Si’s office.

“Don’t worry!” Qiao Si said coldly, “What are the people from the Alliance Gang recruiting troops for?”

“According to our insider in the Alliance Gang, it seems they are planning to make a move against the Heavenly Reversal Gang!” the little brother hurriedly said.

“Great!” Qiao Si immediately clapped his hands, and with a cold sneer, he said, “Please bring Chen Gang from the Alliance Gang right away, and tell him I have matters to discuss with him!”

“Yes!” the little brother immediately nodded.

Before long, Chen Gang hurriedly arrived at Qiao Si’s office with two skilled men.

The two, who were originally sworn enemies, unexpectedly met with laughter.

Qiao Si walked up with a smile and shook hands with Chen Gang, saying, “Boss Chen, no illness has befallen you I hope!”

“Ha ha, Boss Qiao, no illness has befallen you I hope!” Chen Gang burst into laughter.

“Not at all, it’s like they say, ‘No fight, no acquaintance.’ Please, have a seat…” Qiao Si immediately pulled Chen Gang over to sit on the side sofa.

The two skilled men Chen Gang brought with him respectfully stood by the door, while Qiao Gang’s little brother served tea and water to Qiao Si and Chen Gang.

Laughing, Chen Gang asked, “I wonder, Boss Qiao, what is it that you have called me here for?”

“Ha ha, Boss Chen, I’ve brought you here mainly for two things!” Qiao Si sighed and said, “Brother, I did something in the past that I regret to your gang, I hope the brothers from the Alliance Gang won’t take it to heart, forgive me for that.

Secondly, I wanted to discuss with you the issue of dealing with the Heavenly Reversal Gang.

These outsiders, these bandits, do they really think Tongzhou City has no one to defend it?

They even killed my little brother and stole my territory.

It’s outrageous!”

“Um…” Chen Gang was not a fool.

With a soft smile, he said, “But, it seems that the Heavenly Reversal Gang hasn’t really offended our Alliance Gang yet?

So, what does this have to do with us?”

Chen Gang seemed unaware that there was a traitor within his own gang, whose information about targeting the Heavenly Reversal Gang had already reached Qiao Si’s ears.

And how could Qiao Si not know Chen Gang was just pretending to be ignorant.

“Ha ha, Brother Chen, you are wrong to say that!” Qiao Si immediately patted Chen Gang on the shoulder and asked, “Tell me, wasn’t it previously just my Qiao Gang and your Heavenly Reversal Gang standing equally in Tongzhou City?”

“Correct!” Chen Gang nodded.

Most larger gangs had either joined the Alliance Gang or had become affiliated with the Qiao Gang.

Hence, there was basically no third power.

Qiao Si quickly pressed on, “Now that the Heavenly Reversal Gang has come, they want to split our territory and snatch our profits.

Aren’t we both at a loss then!”

“Hmm!” Chen Gang was not foolish, he immediately retorted, “If the Heavenly Reversal Gang weren’t here, my Alliance Gang would sooner or later be annexed by your Qiao Gang.

I should be thanking the Heavenly Reversal Gang, as they have helped our Alliance Gang to stabilize its footing.

Now, with the Heavenly Reversal Gang between us, it’s somewhat a stable guarantee for our Alliance Gang!”

“Pooh!” Qiao Si spat immediately and said, “Brother, you’re wrong there.

When the Qin Dynasty unified China, it was for the people to live better lives.

In the subsequent dynasties, the eras of unification were always the most prosperous.

So, brother, you should look at the bigger picture!”

“Fine, then let’s wait for Boss Qiao Si to defeat the Heavenly Reversal Gang, then we can roll out the red carpet!” Chen Gang said with a cold smile.

“Ha ha, Brother Chen, don’t misunderstand me!” Qiao Si quickly tried to persuade him, “Actually, this time I want to help the Alliance Gang.

Although I intend to wipe out the Alliance Gang from Tongzhou City, compared to the Heavenly Reversal Gang, I would rather the brothers from the Alliance Gang stand with me in Tongzhou City.

These outsiders, these country bumpkins, on what basis should they stand equally with us in Tongzhou City?”

Perhaps the earlier words angered Chen Gang, but Qiao Si’s last remark stirred him.

Slightly puzzled, Chen Gang asked, “I wonder what Boss Qiao plans to do?”

“I plan to give money to the Alliance Gang!” Qiao Si grinned and said, “I know the brothers from the Alliance Gang have had a hard time in the past six months, scraping by.

Therefore, I’ve decided to compensate you, starting with ten million upfront.

Once you’ve recruited enough little brothers, then you can snatch territory from the Heavenly Reversal Gang.

By then, you will gradually recover your ‘Primordial Energy’!”

Chen Gang couldn’t help but understand Qiao Si’s intent.

It was nothing but an attempt to champion a gang opposing the Heavenly Reversal Gang behind their backs.

Once this happens, the Heavenly Reversal Gang would be in a very difficult situation, caught in the middle.

If the Qiao Gang and the Alliance Gang both took action simultaneously, then the situation would be tough for Qiao Gang as well.

Fighting on two fronts is a major taboo in warfare.

“Done!” Chen Gang agreed without any hesitation.

Now, what the Alliance Gang needed most was money.

When money was being offered on a platter, how could he refuse such a good deal?

Despite knowing Qiao Si’s conspiracy, this was also an opportunity for the Alliance Gang.

Once the Alliance Gang developed in the future, whether Qiao Gang could still defeat them as easily as this time was another matter.

“Ha ha, wonderful!” Qiao Si exclaimed excitedly, “Do you have plans on when to move against the Heavenly Reversal Gang?”

“Not yet, let’s gather enough forces first!” Chen Gang wasn’t eager to act so soon.

“Brother, I’m not criticizing you, but such matters are better handled swiftly!” Qiao Si urgently advised, “While the Heavenly Reversal Gang still hasn’t settled in or adapted here, perhaps the brothers from the Alliance Gang could defeat the Heavenly Reversal Gang in one fell swoop!”
