Back in the Iron Palm Gang, Guo Mo discovered that the leader of the three villages was different.

Tonight, I saw with my own eyes that he disagreed with Qiu Qianren for "backing Song Dynasty and investing in gold", and they parted ways.

Guo Mo just wanted to accept this person, which could be regarded as accumulating more strength for the Song Dynasty.

"If Brother Lu has nowhere to go for the time being, how about temporarily staying in the 'Dunwu Army'? Protect your home and country, fight on the battlefield, and live up to what Brother Lu has learned throughout his life!"

Lu Pingsheng didn't expect that Guo Mo would take the initiative to recruit him, and he hurriedly raised his fists.

"It's my wish, but I dare not invite you."

...

Junshan is thirty miles southwest of Yueyang City and located in Dongting Lake.

In ancient times, it was called Dongting Mountain, Xiang Mountain, and Youyuan Mountain. It is a small island in the 800-mile Dongting Lake.

It is far away from the famous "Yueyang Tower" through the ages, and it means the "Garden of the Cave" of the immortals.

Because Emperor Shun's two concubines, E Huang and Nv Ying, were buried here, Qu Yuan called them Xiang Jun and Xiang Lady in his "Nine Songs", so later generations renamed this mountain "Jun Mountain".

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, "Junshan" became lively early in the morning.

All over the island, hundreds of beggars appeared out of nowhere.

The beggars who can get here are not ordinary beggars. They have to carry at least three sacks on their backs before they can enter this island.

These beggars are all members of the Beggar Clan. Today's Beggar Clan meeting is scheduled to officially start at noon.

There was still an hour before the official start, and the invited martial arts friends from all walks of life gradually arrived at "Junshan", and more and more people came to watch the excitement.

Guo Mo and Lu Pingsheng had a meal early in the morning and walked over without even riding a horse.

After returning last night, Guo Mo received news that the Jin garrison in Dengzhou had really moved south.

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, they crossed the border between Song and Jin Dynasties, and a total of five thousand cavalry did not attack any city. They seemed to be rushing for hundreds of miles to aid "Junshan".

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Meng Zongzheng's "Loyal and Shun Army" also took action. It only had a "Loyal and Shun Army" of more than 20,000 people, but less than 2,000 cavalry.

Historically, the cavalry in the south of the Yangtze River, with the exception of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, generally lagged far behind the north.

Even so, Meng Zongzheng still brought all the cavalry, plus 10,000 "loyal and shun army" infantry, to follow the Jin cavalry.

At the same time, eight hundred miles were sent urgently to report the news to Lin'an, and people were also sent to report the news to other Song Dynasty garrisons in the two lakes and nearby areas.

He also ordered them to send out cavalry with more than a hundred men to participate in the encirclement and suppression with all their strength.

That's right, it's not a request, it's an "order", and the official document is clearly stamped with the seal of "King Yan".

Half a year ago, the imperial court issued an imperial edict, conferring Zhao Hao the title of "King of Yan", which allowed him to mobilize all the troops in the Song Dynasty.

When Meng Zongzheng saw the letter brought by Wang Jian, he was also shocked and stood in awe of this "King of Yan" whom he had never met before.

In addition, his most outstanding son, Meng Gong, was currently the deputy commander of the "Dunwu Army" under Guo Mo, so he naturally fully supported this military order.

According to Guo Mo's intention, the "loyal and shun army" was naturally led by Meng Zongzheng. The cavalry from other garrisons gathered together and asked each of them to send a general to lead them.

For the time being, it is also under the command of Meng Zongzheng and is under his unified command.

As for Wang Jian, the fifty-man team commanded by Qin Ju was divided into two groups to support all parties. If they encountered anyone who did not respect orders, they could kill them first and then report them.

In just two or three days, four to five thousand cavalry were gathered, plus the two thousand cavalry of the "Loyal and Shun Army", the number was nearly seven thousand.

...

It's noon, the sun is exceptionally warm today, and the breath of spring is already faintly visible all over "Junshan" Island.

"Everyone, welcome to the 'Junshan Conference' of our Beggar Clan. As the law enforcement elder of the Beggar Clan, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone for coming!"

The person presiding over today's meeting is Elder Liang, the law enforcement elder of the Beggar Clan, ranking second among the four elders.

He is also an elder of the "Dirty Clothes Sect", and his martial arts skills are second only to Elder Jian, the elder who is ranked number one in martial arts.

"Now that the Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty are coexisting, the world is in troubled times. I am the leader of the Northern Beggar Gang, Hong Gang, and the dragon has seen its head but not its tail. After many suggestions from Elder Peng of the Jingyi Sect, the Junshan Conference will be held today to elect an executive.

Gang leader'."

"Each of the four elders has two recommendation quotas. Young heroes under the age of forty can be recommended to compete for the title of gang leader."

"When Gang Leader Hong is away, the 'Executive Gang Leader' can order the entire gang to handle all the affairs of the gang."

As soon as Elder Liang finished speaking, there was a lot of discussion below. Some members were in favor of it, while others were against it. It was a mess.

"Enough chatter, the competition officially begins below -"

The Beggar Clan is different from other sects. There are not so many restrictions on the inheritance of masters. Many people come with skills, and the martial arts are also diverse.

Except for the "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms" and "Dog Beating Stick Technique" of the previous gang leaders, no one has studied the martial arts and origins of other people in detail.

The first ones to come on stage were recommended by Elder Jian and Elder Liang. They were both members of the Beggar Clan. They were both in their thirties and were already eight disciples of the Beggar Clan. They were inseparable from each other for a while.

The competition started, and the discussion below stopped. They all watched the competition in the field seriously, cheering for the person they liked the most.

Guo Mo was also watching from the crowd, and the martial arts of the two men on the field were just so-so.

However, he is in his thirties, has reached the second-rate level, and is considered a master in the world. The Beggar Clan still has some background.

After more than 50 face-to-face encounters, the one Elder Jian recommended struck the opponent on the shoulder and won half a move.

The two of them are acquaintances, and since the outcome has been decided, there will be no more entanglement.

Down below, Gailu sent someone up, and saw a thin middle-aged man in his thirties to less than forty walking out of the crowd.

"Jiangdong Snake King——"

As soon as this person came out, some of the Beggar Clan disciples started shouting.

If Guo Jing had been at the scene, he would have known this person. He was none other than Li Sheng, known as the "Snake King of Jiangdong."

Li Sheng clasped his fists at the people in the field, "Li Sheng is here, please give me some advice."

The man who had just won felt a little unsure when he saw that Li Sheng was actually sent by Elder Lu.

Sure enough, after the two fought for more than forty rounds, Li Sheng suddenly used a palm move and knocked his opponent out of the field.

Fortunately, Li Sheng saved his hand, and the other party only fell down and was not seriously injured.

"Kodong Snake King! Kodong Snake King——"

It seems that this person is quite popular. The palm he used just now was so subtle, Guo Mo thought to himself.

"Elder Peng, it's your turn to send someone."

Elder Liang, who presided over the meeting, said to Elder Peng next to him.

"Haha, Elder Liang, please be patient. The person I recommended will arrive later. How about your people competing first? As an apology, Mr. Peng can only recommend one place for this conference."

Elder Peng smiled and looked confident.

Elder Liang turned around and discussed with the other two elders, and the competition continued.

In less than an hour, three more good players appeared one after another. They competed with each other with fists, kicks, and weapons. Li Sheng lived up to expectations and won all of them.

"Kodong Snake King! Kodong Snake King——"

The shouts for Li Sheng became louder.

Guo Mo found that although the content of each person's competition was different.

However, this "Jiangdong Snake King" actually wins with the same palm move every time.

So what kind of palm technique is it? Why is there only one move?

"Haha, the person recommended by me is here——"

Elder Peng, who was sitting aside and watching the excitement, suddenly stood up.

From outside "Junshan" Island, three people have just arrived, two old and one young.

Guo Mo took a look and saw that it was the three people he saw at Wanghu Restaurant last night, but Qiu Qianren was no longer wearing a mask at this time.

A strong man in his fifties, tall and handsome.

It stands to reason that Guo Mo has met Qiu Qianzhang, and he and Qiu Qianren are twins, but the auras of the two people are completely different.

"Everyone, Peng will introduce to you two martial arts seniors to open your eyes."

"This is one of the 'Five Experts' in the world today, Mr. Ouyang Feng Ouyang, the 'Western Poison'. This is the leader of the 'Iron Palm Gang' who is famous all over the world. Senior Qiu Qianrenqiu, the 'Iron Palm Floating on the Water'."

"Wow——"

The shadow of a famous human tree, is it still worthy of the "Five Wonders"?

Those are the ones who stand at the top among all martial arts practitioners in today’s martial arts world!

Especially for the members of the Beggar Clan, "Western Poison" Ouyang Feng is the existence of their most admired leader, "Northern Beggar" Hong.

"Iron palm floats on water" Qiu Qianren, that's not easy either.

In the land of these two lakes, the "Iron Palm Gang" is a behemoth, and Qiu Qianren can be regarded as the local Taishan Beidou.

Unexpectedly, the Junshan Conference would recruit these two seniors.

The other three elders of the Beggar Clan looked grave.
