Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

Chapter 200: Too much talk brings disaster! The villain died because of his talkativeness

Dagukou Fortress!
The atmosphere was extremely festive with lights and decorations.

We won the battle!

The Western coalition forces were defeated and the imperial court gave special commendations.

The five strongholds of Dagukou Fortress all received commendations from the imperial court’s Ministry of War.

In order to express Ximen Tang's gratitude for the defense of Tanggu Port, Ye Zhicheng went to his house in person to express his gratitude.

This was an unprecedented victory in the history of the Daqian Dynasty.

Worth celebrating!

Yesterday afternoon, Ye Zhicheng notified Ximentang that he would go to Tanggu Port in person.

After hearing the news, Chen Jie sneered.

I didn't expect that Ye Zhicheng was willing to spend so much money to make Ximen Hall relax its vigilance.

He actually put himself in danger.

Originally, Chen Jie didn't want to bother with Ye Zhicheng.

but,

The current commander stationed at Dagukou Fortress is still Ye Zhicheng from the Ministry of War.

Although Ximen Hall was not affiliated with the Ministry of War of the imperial court, it still had to obey the orders of the Ministry of War during war.

Just like when Ximen Tang sent troops to Tanggu Port before, he received a transfer order from the Ministry of War.

Therefore,
Ye Zhicheng is coming to Tanggu Port, so Chen Jie still has to receive him personally.

Early this morning, he deliberately put on a brand new Ximentang Yituan military uniform.

Originally, his height and body shape were relatively good.

At this time, he was wearing Ximentang's unique military uniform, looking majestic and unusually burly.

The key is that he has a handsome appearance, and in his military uniform, he gives people an extremely domineering feeling.

Tang Feng and other bodyguards, armed with imitation AK47 automatic rifles, surrounded Chen Jie within ten meters.

They did not let down their guard just because they were in the military camp.

Ever since Chen Jie was assassinated by Japanese ninjas in the military camp of the Ximen Hall headquarters in the capital.

Tang Feng and his guards have always felt guilty.

Therefore,
They specially strengthened the vigilance and were determined to ensure the safety of the young master at all times.

The Japanese ninjas' escape techniques made them elusive, and no one knew whether they would sneak into the military camp.

Therefore,
Tang Feng and other bodyguards were highly focused and kept checking their surroundings.

They are well aware that today is a very special day.

General Ye Zhicheng of the Ministry of War arrived at the Tanggu Port. Beneath the apparent jubilation, there was a hidden storm.

Chen Jie stood in the middle of the military camp square at Tanggu Port, with the elite members of Ximentang standing beside him.

at this time,

Through the telescope, one can already see Ye Zhicheng leading the military generals.

Simultaneously,

The vanguard scouts under Ye Zhicheng's command kept reporting the location of General Ye Zhicheng to Ximen Tang.

To put it simply, Ye Zhicheng was just showing off and wanted Chen Jie to be prepared to welcome him.

To be honest, Chen Jie didn't care about Ye Zhicheng's actions at all.

What's so great about showing off?

Did this guy really think he didn't know his purpose?

at this time,

Instead, he was more concerned about when Zeng Xuanhuai would return.

Yesterday he sent a secret letter, asking Zeng Xuanhuai to persuade Xiong Chao to surrender and rebel. I wonder what the result will be?
of course,

Chen Jie never puts all his eggs in one basket.

Even if Zeng Xuanhuai's attempt to persuade Ximen Tang to surrender and rebel failed, Chen Jie was not worried at all about any accidents happening to Ximen Hall.

In the military camp at Tanggu Port, Ximen Tang was absolutely sure that he could defeat not only the Tianwu Army, but even all the troops under Ye Zhicheng.

This old guy Ye Zhicheng actually wants to take over Ximen Tang. He is simply fed up with living.

He looked into the distance through the telescope and an intriguing smile appeared on his face.

We should be prepared for both situations and see what the outcome will be on Zeng Xuanhuai's side.

The four hundred cannons of Ximen Hall are ready for battle!
That's right,

The Ximentang Arsenal sent another hundred 60mm mortars.

Yan Kuangtu and Zhang Changfeng had already dispersed the elite troops of Ximen Hall and occupied the high ground.

If Xiong Chao's Tianwu Army chooses to submit to Ximen Tang, then it depends on whether the "letter of surrender" handed in by Xiong Chao of the Tianwu Army can satisfy him.

on the contrary,

If Xiong Chao persists in his delusion, then it is no wonder that Ximen Tang is so ruthless and will directly kill the Tianwu Army.

in addition,

Chen Jie is well aware of the importance of public opinion in "Urban World".

He had asked the 'Submarines' to prepare everything long ago, no matter what the final outcome of today's events would be.

There is only one direction of public opinion, that is, Ye Zhicheng led his troops to attack the Tanggu Port, eliminate dissidents, and want to kill the Ximentang Righteous Group.

In the end, Ximen Tang fought back bravely and killed Ye Zhicheng's men.

Public opinion is a double-edged sword. If used well, it can occupy the moral high ground.

Even if the imperial court wanted to take action against him, it had to consider the impact of public opinion.

Ximen Tang's "hidden department" has already bought many newspapers, and even in the southern and central cities of Daqian, they have prepared for the rainy day and bought newspaper properties.

Public opinion is Chen Jie's special requirement for the "undercover department", and Thirteenth Aunt is directly responsible for it.

quickly,

Chen Jie saw the Tianwu Army appear, and then saw Zeng Xuanhuai.

call--!
At this moment, Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he still cared a lot about Zeng Xuanhuai's life and death.

This scholar, who used to be a clerk in the Grand Council, helped him a lot after joining Ximen Hall.

If it wasn't a matter of great importance, he didn't want Zeng Xuanhuai to put himself in danger.

at this time,

After seeing Zeng Xuanhuai, he knew that his plan to instigate Xiong Chao to rebel had been successful.

If it had not been successful, Zeng Xuanhuai would not have appeared in the Tianwu Army.

The overall situation is decided!

Next,
When he saw Ye Zhicheng arrogance and dominance through the telescope, a sneer appeared on his face.

"Ye Zhicheng, let me let you show off first! You won't be able to laugh later."

Zeng Xuanhuai followed the Tianwu Army and entered the military camp at Tanggu Port.

He and Chen Jie nodded to indicate that it had been done.

A smile appeared on Chen Jie's face.

As long as we capture Ye City today and block the news, we can let the Tianwu Army assist in the defense and capture all the other strongholds of Dagukou Fortress.

From now on, the entire Dagukou Fortress will truly fall into the hands of Ximen Tang.

The Tianwu Army ostensibly belongs to the Ministry of War, but in reality it will become the most powerful force under Ximen Tang.

-

Two kilometers away from Tanggu Port, within the range of observation of the telescope.

At this time, Ye Zhicheng led his most elite troops and walked slowly towards the Tanggu Port.

The vanguard scouts constantly reported the movements at the Tanggu Port to Ye Zhicheng.

When Ye Zhicheng heard that there was no defense in the entire Ximen Hall, a smile appeared on his face.

This time we must take down Ximen Tang!

Ximen Tang fought a fierce battle with the Western coalition forces, and both sides suffered heavy losses!

Hunter's coalition forces were defeated, and Seymour's general offensive plan would be postponed indefinitely.

More importantly, as long as Ximen Hall is taken down, the "war faction" will collapse again.

His position in the Ministry of War will be indestructible.

What Ye Zhicheng was concerned about at the moment was not the general offensive of the Western coalition forces, but his own interests.

"How come Chen Jie, the head of Ximen Hall, doesn't know any rules?"

One of the guards felt uncomfortable when he saw that Ximen Tang's men did not go out to greet General Ye.

He has followed Ye Zhicheng for so many years that he has long been accustomed to being responded to wherever he goes.

but,

This time when we arrived at Tanggu Port, we were ignored.

then,

The guard said indignantly: "We are almost at the Tanggu Port, and they pretended not to see it!"

"The underworld forces are really unreliable. They have no rules at all. They are just a bunch of bumpkins!"

Ye Zhicheng smiled calmly, not particularly concerned about it, and said: "The Jianghu Yituan organization has its own rules, which are completely different from what our military department does!"

"They rely on the support of the Military Affairs Council and think they can ignore us. It's understandable!"

at this time,

One cannot tell what Ye Zhicheng is thinking from his face.

"General, why do you have to go through so much trouble?"

The guard said doubtfully: "As long as the general gives the order to let him go to the general's mansion and arrange for experts to capture him directly, won't everything be fine?"

"For the sake of a gang force, I'm putting you in danger. If something goes wrong, you'll be in big trouble!"

"These gangsters have no rules when doing things. No one knows what they will do."

Ye Zhicheng shook his head and said in a deep voice:
"It's not an easy task to take down Ximen Hall!"

"Don't forget, right now, the Sixth Prince is standing behind Ximen Tang. If we fail, we will be in big trouble!"

"He has made great contributions one after another. Not only did he defeat the Hunter coalition forces, but he also captured the Bian Du Concession!"

"Do you think he is just a gangster now?"

"The longer time drags on, the more consolidated the position of Ximen Hall becomes, and the more terrifying the power in their hands becomes!"

"We must take the initiative while they are still young and outnumbered!"

"This kid is very smart. Do you think he will go to the General's Mansion if I order him to do so?"

"And don't think that just because he's not very skilled in martial arts, you can just send a few experts to take him down."

"Many masters have died at his hands. Even Piaoxiang Tower was razed to the ground by him—!"

The guard next to him reacted immediately after hearing what was said and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Ximen Hall is indeed not an ordinary force.

The Piaoxiang Tower of the Taiping was destroyed in an instant, directly slapping the Ninth Prince in the face!

Given the strength of Ximen Hall, they really wouldn’t care about Ye Zhicheng’s orders.

"General, I always feel like something is wrong with this plan. Will Ximen Tang be prepared against us in advance?"

The guard asked with some concern.

Ye Zhicheng looked up at the Tanggu Port in the distance and said in a deep voice:

"Don't worry, even if they are prepared, what can they do?"

"The most powerful weapon of Ximen Hall is its artillery. As long as they enter Tanggu Port, their artillery will be useless."

"Xiong Chao led 15,000 Tianwu troops into the Tanggu Port."

"With only 2,000 people in Ximen Hall, even if they have the ability to defy the heavens, they cannot change their fate."

finished,

There was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, and he said fiercely:
"We will definitely wipe out the Ximen Hall this time! For a Jianghu organization to want to change the fate of a chess piece and become a chess player, it's simply a daydream!"

-

Half an hour later.

Ye Zhicheng, with his personal guards and the Tianwu Army, entered the fortifications of the Tanggu Port.

No one greeted me.

The people of Ximen Hall stood in the middle of the square of the military camp, motionless.

Ye Zhicheng frowned, feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere of the entire Tanggu Port.

but,

He couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

At this moment, he saw the Tianwu Army following not far behind him, and he finally felt a lot more relaxed.

Xiong Chao's Tianwu Army consisted of 15,000 men.

Five thousand men entered the Tanggu Port, and another ten thousand were stationed at the gate of the fortifications, ready to provide support at any time.

As long as the Tianwu Army enters the Tanggu Port, they will be able to capture everyone in Ximen Hall.

Wow——!
Under Xiong Chao's arrangement, the Tianwu Army, with 5,000 men, entered the Tanggu Port and quickly surrounded the area.

After seeing all this, Ye Zhicheng showed a smile on his face.

It worked!
What he was most worried about before was that Ximen Hall would close the door and not let the Tianwu Army in.

I didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

It seems that the risk I took was worth the trip.

The captain of Ye Zhicheng's personal guard saw Chen Jie standing calmly in the middle of the military camp at Tanggu Port, acting arrogant.

Suddenly,

The captain of the guards was furious and rushed forward to yell at Chen Jie:
"Ximen Tang Chen Jie, what do you mean?"

"Didn't you see General Ye coming to Tanggu Port for inspection? Why didn't you greet him?"

"Why are you putting on airs in front of General Ye from our Ministry of War?"

throat!
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jie took out a gun and shot him directly in the middle of the eyebrows!

He came to the body of the captain of the guards, squatted down and said calmly:

"Too much talk brings disaster, too little talk brings peace of mind! Villains die from talking too much!"

As gunfire rang out.

Rumble——!
next moment,
Suddenly, thirty Maxim heavy machine guns were set up around.

At the same time, rows of muskets were aimed at everyone around Ye Zhicheng.

The entire Tanggu Port is filled with a bleak atmosphere.

Ximentang’s biggest gain in the Bian Du Concession was the Maxim heavy machine gun.

Thirty Maxim heavy machine guns surrounded the entire military camp, and their deterrent power was terrifying.

Ye Zhicheng was completely dumbfounded at this moment.

Oops!

I had missed something. I didn't expect Ximen Tang to have seized so many Maxim heavy machine guns in the Bian Du Concession!
Damn it, why didn't I get the news before?

To know,
When Ximentang seized the 'Maxim heavy machine gun' and 'Krupp infantry gun', they were packed in wooden boxes.

These are all military supplies shipped from Western warships, and they have not been opened yet.

Moreover, the transportation of these two types of heavy firepower was carried out by Ximen Hall itself, and Xiong Chao didn't even see it.

and so.

Even though Xiong Chao's Tianwu Army served as a baggage transport unit, it was unknown how many 'Maxim heavy machine guns' were seized.

At that time, Xiong Chao was only concerned about food. He was very jealous when he saw that more than 20,000 muskets were seized.

but,

After all, Ye Zhicheng was the commander of Dagukou Fortress and was not panicked.

He didn't believe that Chen Jie dared to kill him.

"Chen Jie, what are you doing? Do you want to rebel?"

Ye Zhicheng roared loudly, taking the lead.

Chen Jie smiled indifferently and said disdainfully:
"General Ye, have you forgotten one thing? We are the 'righteous group' appointed by the emperor! How can we be accused of rebellion?"

"You are leading your troops to wipe out our group. Do you really think we will let you control us?"

Ye Zhicheng gritted his teeth and said harshly:
"Asshole! Chen Jie, what you did today is tantamount to rebellion!"

"If you insist on doing this, don't blame me for reporting to the Ministry of War and having you arrested!"

Chen Jie sneered, "Arrest? I don't belong to your military department, what qualifications do you have to arrest me?"

"you--!"

Ye Zhicheng suddenly felt a little uneasy.

He took a deep breath, glanced at the Tianwu Army outside the Tanggu Port defense fortifications, and said sternly:
"Chen Jie, don't be so arrogant! It's not just you, Ximen Hall, who have artillery. Our Tianwu Army also has artillery."

Chen Jie was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and shouted to the distance:

"Someone, tie him up!"

Wow——!
The elite members of the Eagle Tribe under Zhang Changfeng separated from the crowd and headed towards Ye City.

The 5,000 Tianwu troops who had originally entered the Tanggu Port actually automatically separated into different paths at this moment.

After seeing this scene, Ye Zhicheng's heart sank suddenly.

"Xiong Chao! What are you doing?"

Xiong Chao did not answer him. At this moment, he saw the gate of the Tanggu Port's fortifications.

Rong Yu and several generals of the Tianwu Army had their hands tied behind their backs and were kneeling on the ground.

Inverted!

Xiong Chao’s Tianwu Army rebelled!

in fact,

Even if they did not rebel, the Tianwu Army could not change anything under the siege of dozens of heavy machine guns in Ximen Hall.

If a war really breaks out, the Tianwu Army will be wiped out.

Xiong Chao is a smart man and naturally knows what to do.

puff--!
Ye Zhicheng was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.

He only felt a blackness in front of his eyes, his mind went blank, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
