Chapter 41 The Council Gathers
"It is indeed a high-level martial arts. You can achieve such remarkable results at the beginning, and it will be amazing if you practice it to the advanced level."
Song Changming put away the knife with great joy.
By practicing this light body skill, he finally made up for his shortcomings.
Woof woof
Under the locust tree on the side, two half-grown puppies seemed to be awakened by the sound of Song Changming practicing his sword. They bumped all the way from the den and bit Song Changming's trouser legs.
Compared with the way they couldn't open their eyes when they were first picked up, these two puppies have grown up a little now and can recognize people.
Song Changming was in a good mood. He picked up the dough one by one and kneaded it, as if kneading two pieces of dough. The feel was pretty good.
One of them has white hair and the other has yellow hair, so he simply named the two puppies Xiaobai and Xiaohuang.
"Go, go, let's go." Feeling satisfied, Song Changming immediately turned his back on the dog and threw it back into the kennel.
Minding his own business, he ran to the kitchen to eat the prepared meat to replenish his energy from practicing martial arts.
Early July.
Liang Chuanshan formally summoned all the patrol chiefs.
By the time Song Changming arrived at the department lobby, the other five patrol chiefs had already arrived and were sitting on seats on both sides.
The first seat is still vacant, and Liang Chuanshan has not yet come.
"Changming, you're the only one missing." When Lu Gang saw Song Changming, he couldn't help but waved to him and pointed to the vacant position next to him.
In the past, it was Liang Chuanshan's seat when he was still the patrol chief, but now it is Song Changming's turn to sit.
As for the leader on the other side, Zhao Dezhi is still sitting.
Next is Qian Wen, and then Zhang Sihai.
In the past, in gatherings like this, Zhao Dezhi and Liang Chuanshan had the most say, followed by Qian Wen and Sun Wenyan.
Now, although Zhao Dezhi still sits in the top position, his right to speak has been taken back by Liang Chuanshan, and sitting in that position has little meaning.
He was not trusted by Liang Chuanshan.
Song Changming nodded, and there was no need to be polite. He sat down directly and chatted with Lu Gang for a few words.
Across the way, Zhao Dezhi felt mixed emotions when he saw this scene.
The boy he looked down upon at all in the past is now standing above him.
He had to admit that he was completely wrong at first.
It's just that now, he can't get rid of this old face and repair the relationship with the Song family.
Therefore, the relationship between the two families is not very close now.
The only person who really had good relations with the Song family was his son, Zhao Huaiming, who married the daughter of the Song family.
Before, he severely blocked his son from getting closer to the Song family, but now he has turned a blind eye and allowed his son to go to Song Changming and reminisce with Song's father and mother.
On the other side, Qian Wen treated Song Changming coldly.
He looked down upon this young man with little qualifications and resented Liang Chuanshan in his heart. He also felt very unhappy with Song Changming.
Of course, on the surface, he won't do anything.
He knew very well that for him, targeting Song Changming in the Patrol Division was just asking for trouble.
As for Zhu Bairen and Zhang Sihai, they have always refrained from fighting. They have also been quite friendly towards the two new patrol chiefs, Song Changming and Lu Gang, and have no objections to Liang Chuanshan's arrangements.
In exchange for this, the status of the two men in the Patrol Division was elevated, which was also a good thing.
The six of them waited for a while, and then Liang Chuanshan came slowly.
"Director!"
The six people immediately stood up and saluted.
"Yes." Liang Chuanshan has now fully adapted to the position of director. There is a sense of majesty in his speech and behavior, and his black official uniform makes people feel awe. "I have summoned you all here today for one thing only."
Liang Chuanshan's expression was serious and even a bit dignified, and everyone immediately felt that what was discussed today was probably not trivial.
Lu Gang put away his remaining smile and waited for Liang Chuanshan's next words.
Only Song Changming remained calm. He had already learned from Liang Chuanshan what he was going to say today before he came, and he had already made preparations.
"Tonight, summon all the patrols to destroy the Jiuquhui!" Liang Chuanshan said firmly.
When the several patrol chiefs heard this, they couldn't sit still.
Jiuquhui is now very powerful, and several of their patrol chiefs have already noticed this problem more or less when they look back.
It is undoubtedly very difficult to eradicate the Jiuquhui at the moment.
"Director, this is a matter," Zhao Dezhi couldn't help but speak.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Liang Chuanshan interrupted: "I have been considering this matter since the beginning of my taking office, and I have been preparing for it for a long time. It is time to remove this stubborn disease."
When Liang Chuanshan said this, he was obviously determined to kill, and Zhao Dezhi had to swallow what he wanted to say.
The other patrol chiefs looked at each other and knew that the matter had been finalized. They were only here to accept the arrangement, not to discuss the matter.
Liang Chuanshan looked around and saw the expressions of the several patrol chiefs, and then said in a deep voice.
"There is another reason to send troops. Do you still remember the incident of the Dark Night Pavilion killer a year ago?"
Several people looked stern, and they vaguely guessed what Liang Chuanshan was going to say.
At this time, Liang Chuanshan had nothing to hide and directly told the matter.
"Hateful!" Lu Gang slapped the armrest of the seat, wanting to crush the wood into pieces.
It was not that they had not thought about the suspicion of Jiuquhui at the beginning, but they just suffered from the lack of evidence and clues, and felt that a mere Jiuquhui would not dare to be so bold as to do this.
That's when they left it alone and thought it was the bandits from Teng Ya Mountain.
"If that's the case, it would be really serious to leave this Jiuqu behind. It would be a crime worthy of death!" Zhu Bairen immediately stated his position and gritted his teeth.
"That's right." Zhang Sihai also echoed.
At this time, it is important to take a stand, to let Liang Chuanshan, the new director, see that they will always support him and follow his decisions.
It doesn't matter whether Song Changming and Lu Gang expressed their opinions or not. They were in the same boat as Liang Chuanshan.
In the end, Qian Wen and Zhao Dezhi had to answer the call.
"That being the case, everyone, please talk about your strategies and ideas for destroying the enemy this time. Speak freely." Liang Chuanshan nodded with satisfaction and continued.
A pre-war meeting lasted for more than an hour and then ended.
It was getting dark, and the six patrol captains immediately began to make final preparations.
Since the news was blocked during this period, there was no need to worry too much about Jiuqu getting wind of it in advance.
Even if the people of Jiuquhui realized something was wrong at the last moment, it would be enough to catch them off guard.
It's best to establish a winning streak right from the start.
In the Patrol Division, all the patrol guards gathered in each small courtyard.
They each lit the torches in their hands with solemn expressions.
This situation made Song Changming couldn't help but think of the situation when he attacked the Qinghe Gang, which was almost the same.
The difference is that now he has become the patrol commander, playing the role of the alpha wolf and leading his patrols into battle.
