Chapter 209 Taking Advantage of the Situation

Yan Zhe had long heard of the power of the Golden Eagle Gang and the Black Tiger Gang. The two most powerful gang leaders had reached the seventh level of the Blood Refining Realm and had entered the late stage of the Blood Refining Realm.

There are many warriors among the gang members, and each gang has dozens of people.

Overall, there are more than 2,000 gang members.

If Yan Zhe were to face such an organization now, he would definitely not have much chance of winning.

Well, it should be said that there is basically no chance of winning and death is certain.

When he decided to take action, he had already thought about the next steps.

He asked Lu Rao to close the door, and then took them to the office of the Military Horse Prison.

As the Vice-Chairman, his office was larger and had a bed for resting. Until the matter was resolved, the mother and daughter had to stay here.

Those gang thugs didn't dare to run wild in the military horse prison.

After arranging the mother and daughter, Yan Zhe found the head pastor Chen Fang.

When Chen Fang saw Yan Zhe appear, he said happily:

"Brother Yan, how come you have time to come here?"

Some time ago, a riot broke out at a horse farm. A horse was promoted to the first level of the Blood Refining Realm and became a demon beast. It then led many other horses to run wildly and trample on the horses, causing the situation to become very ugly for a while.

Yan Zhe happened to be nearby, so he took action to subdue him.

At that time, Chen Fang discovered that Yan Zhe had actually broken through to the third level of the Blood Refining Realm. His strength had greatly improved, and he also had very good horse training skills, so he decided to train him as his confidant.

On weekdays, Yan Zhe basically wandered around the various horse farms for inspection, or practiced. Chen Fang saw that he was diligent and liked it.

He suddenly came to visit me today, and I thought he must have something to ask me.

He was happy to do it.

It is easiest to win over these young people through some small favors.

Yan Zhe said directly:

"I seek your protection, sir!"

Chen Fang was surprised when he heard this:

"If there is anything, tell me in detail."

Yan Zhe continued:

"Your Excellency knows that I was originally entrusted by the Sergeant to take care of his widow. Today, members of the Black Tiger Gang and the Golden Eagle Gang successively came to my sister-in-law's shop, intending to commit a crime.

Fortunately, I got back in time and drove away the people from the Black Tiger Gang, but soon after, the people from the Golden Eagle Gang came again.

Seeing my official uniform, he was still not afraid, saying that how could a mere horse breeder dare to challenge the authority of the Golden Eagle Gang.

At that time, his subordinates were so angry that they killed seven members of the Golden Eagle Gang on the spot. Then, fearing revenge from the Golden Eagle Gang, he took his sister-in-law and daughter to the Military Horse Prison for refuge.

Please, sir, uphold justice for the families of the soldiers in distress and for the dignity of our military horse station!"

Chen Fang was furious when he heard this. He slammed the table hard and shouted:

"How dare a mere gang disregard our Military Horse Depot? Don't worry, I will make sure they know the dignity of the Military Horse Depot is inviolable!"

Having said this, he paused again and continued:

"The Golden Eagle Gang and the Black Tiger Gang are nothing to be afraid of, but the two gangs are backed by the prefect's eldest and second sons, so they cannot be pacified in a short period of time.

Please let the mother and daughter settle down here, and I will go and report to the warden."

Upon hearing this, Yan Zhe clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, sir! I'll take my leave!"

He was not worried about the Military Horse Administration's inaction.

According to what we have learned during this period, the Military Horse Supervisor should be closer to the third son of the prefect.

He is now the Chief of the Central Supervisor, an eighth-rank official. If an eighth-rank official cannot maintain his authority, then the dignity of the Military Horse Supervisor will be gone, and the Third Young Master will inevitably be at a disadvantage.

I'm afraid that the people above me will not be able to accept such a result.

Therefore, he concluded that the government would definitely come forward to protect him.

After Yan Zhe left, Chen Fang thought for a quarter of an hour, then put on his official uniform and came to the office of the supervisor Li Duo.

The Supervisor of the Military Horse Administration held a fifth-rank official position, only two levels lower than the fourth-rank official position of the prefect.

Officials with ranks of sixth rank or above are considered high-ranking officials.

After all, the county magistrate, the local leader, is only of the seventh rank. The fifth-rank supervisor is in charge of the entire military horse supervisory department and is affiliated with the Ministry of War. In this border city, his authority is no weaker than that of the fourth-rank prefect.

The third son, Dai Zongming, is only close to the Military Horse Administration, but that doesn't mean he can influence the Military Horse Administration.

The reason why Yan Zhe was promoted was because Dai Zongming had done something for the Military Horse Supervisor, so he was able to promote him directly.

This is based on the fact that Yan Zhe is already an official of the Military Horse Administration. If he is not from the Military Horse Administration, Dai Zongming will not be able to place people there if he is directly given an official position.

The reason why Yan Zhe was able to join the Military Horse Supervisor was that both the army itself and the Military Horse Supervisor were under the Ministry of War. Yan Zhe's merits were enough to qualify for promotion, so he was given the position of the ninth-rank lower-level pastoral supervisor, which was considered a lateral transfer.

In essence, Yan Zhe still belongs to the Ministry of War. He just helped Dai Zongming with a small favor. The Ministry of War does not have so many concerns when promoting its own people.

If Yan Zhe was planted by Dai Zongming, I'm afraid he won't be able to get promoted easily.

Precisely because Yan Zhe was a member of the Military Horse Inspectorate and the Ministry of War, he was being forced by two gangs, which made the inspector Li Duo extremely angry.

"People from the two gangs took turns coming to provoke us. I'm afraid this wasn't an accident, but was intentional.

Dai Zongheng and Dai Zongli, those two guys, are targeting Dai Zongming and deliberately trying to provoke us. If we don't use drastic measures, I'm afraid they will think we are afraid of them.

Originally, I was not willing to get involved in their own fight, but now they dare to do so, which means they are completely opposed to our military horse supervisor.

Pass on my orders, mobilize the forces, and surround the Golden Eagle Gang first!"

After Li Duo made the arrangements, he went out and headed towards the prefectural government office.

On the other side, Yang Tuoan, the leader of the Golden Eagle Gang, was also furious when he learned that all his men were killed by one guy.

Even the Black Tiger Gang, which was fighting with them, would not dare to do such a thing under normal circumstances.

Where does the dignity of the Golden Eagle Gang lie, and where does the eldest young master's face lie?

He was about to mobilize manpower when he suddenly heard someone running over to report the news.

"Report to the gang leader, there are a large number of soldiers outside surrounding us, all holding bows and crossbows!"

The younger brother who reported the news had fear in his eyes.

The bows and crossbows of the Ministry of War are powerful weapons that can kill masters below the fifth level of the Blood Refining Realm with a single arrow. If a hundred bows and crossbows surround and kill them, even the gang leader at the seventh level of the Blood Refining Realm will probably not escape death.

It was really scary to be suddenly surrounded by such a group of soldiers.

"What's going on? Where did the soldiers come from?"

Yang Tuoan said in surprise.

The younger brother hesitated and said, "Someone recognized him. Among them was someone from the Military Horse Depot. I wonder if he was a soldier from the Military Horse Depot."

Yang Tuoan didn't know how he had offended the people from the Military Horse Administration. Suddenly, he thought of something and said:

"Tell everyone not to act rashly. Also, call Chen Hu to me!"
