For those who make a living on the water, there is nothing more terrible than the sudden sound from the bottom of the boat, because they all know what it means.

When the dong thud kept ringing, Han Bin, who was already commanding his brothers to fight to the death, stopped immediately and said softly: "It's over, it's completely over..." The other Cao Gangmen also lost the courage to continue to resist at the same time, allowing the ships on both sides to collide, causing the merchant ships that had already had problems to tilt to the side from a larger angle.

At this moment, more than a dozen holes of bowl size appeared in the cabin of the lower floor of the merchant ship. As the river water poured backwards, these holes continued to spread and finally connected together, becoming a huge hole. In just a short while, the river water completely poured into the bottom floor, and the turbid water flowed freely in it, spreading upwards, causing the entire ship to tilt and sink...

At this point, the Cao Gang members attacked on both sides no longer had to attack. They had to stare at their retreat, and the enemies on the ship could only cry and howl and fall into the water along the constantly overturned hull, either actively or passively, as if they were dumplings.

There were people waiting for them under the water. Once someone fell into the water, the layers of fishing nets were wrapped around them, and the result of killing them in the water instantly. This time, whether they were the original brothers of the Cao Gang or the official army, they were treated equally. Only a very small number of special identities were not killed on the spot, but were served by a special person - while they were not stable in the water, they dragged the person directly into the water and drowned half to death, and then dragged the person onto the boat like a dragged fish and sent back to the ferry.

When Li Ling saw this battle on the shore, he felt that it was a lack of qualities. This was a crushing force. So as long as Yang Qinghou made up his mind, the enemies on the two ships could not be able to fight back. However, when several important figures were brought up, he still came forward with a little concern, his eyes swept across the faces of the Cao Gang figures, and finally fell on a guy who was quite majestic, even as a prisoner, and was still struggling hard, shouting vaguely: "Let me go... I am a general in the court. Are you going to kill the officials and rebel?"

Until this time, Fan Yu still didn't believe that they really dared to attack him. He was a fifth-rank general, and the Cao Gang was not the lawless water bandits. They were all good people with family members, so he was fearless and kept shouting: "Let me go! Yang Qinghou, Yang Qinghou, do you dare to come out to see me?"

At this time, a young man with a very scholarly aura came to him and looked at him with a smile: "Is this general the lieutenant general of the Huaibei Guard?"

"Who are you? But Yang Qinghou asked you to see me? Did he not have the courage to talk to me?"

Li Ling clasped his fists at the Cao Gang who dragged him over: "Can you please say a few words to him? I want to ask him some things."

These people have seen Li Ling and Yang Qinghou be together before. Knowing that he is the guest of honor for his gang leader, they said politely: "Young Master just ask him, but I have to deal with traitors such as Han Bin first."

This is true. Not far away, Han Bin and other traitors of Cao Gang were tied up and sent to Yang Qinghou. The latter's eyes were like two sharp swords and stared at them: "Han Bin, Han Guardian, and you are all seniors of my Cao Gang. Over the years, they followed my father around the world and created the foundation of my Cao Gang. I have always respected you very much, but why do you actually collude with outsiders to oppose me despite years of friendship?"

"Ha..." Han Bin spitted out a sip of water and looked up at Yang Qinghou, "You said that this Cao Gang is the foundation we have built with your father, and this is also our hard work. But what did Boss Yang do in the end? He actually passed the position of the gang leader to you, a yellow-mouthed child, without thinking about us brothers! This is called respect, this is called good-for-nothing?"

"It's because of this that you did such a thing?" Yang Qinghou's eyes were faint and his tone became extremely cold.

"It would be fine if you were a man who listened to others, but what have you done this year? You actually wanted to retake the wrong path before, and determined that the government could not interfere in the affairs of our Cao Gang, thinking that we have the strength to dominate the Cao Gang business... Your doing so will only make our Cao Gang a thorn in the government's side, leaving hundreds of thousands of brothers and families without a burial place at that time! As the Cao Gang protector, I am not your Yang family, but hundreds of thousands of brothers in the Cao Gang, so I must rebel against you and change everything!"

After hearing this, Yang Qinghou sighed gently: "Your statement is indeed somewhat reasonable. I have never thought of letting my Cao Gang dominate the entire Cao River. A year ago, because there were always people outside who wanted to attack me when my father died, I would insist on using the strong... If you have any ideas, as long as you tell me, I will naturally make improvements! I, Yang Qinghou, are not someone who doesn't listen to advice!"

"Haha... To put it nicely, Boss Yang said that at the beginning, but at the critical moment, he did not do his own thing? The officials had seen him more than three or two times before, but he didn't even want the official position given to him by the government. That was a third-rank official of the canal transport. He was a high position that many people would never reach in their entire lives, but he disdained it. So from then on, I understood that it would be impossible to persuade you to change your mind with words. You must use strong people to become the leader of the canal gang to reverse this situation."

"What you said is nice. Why do you think about the Cao Gang brothers? In fact, it's not just for your own benefit? You are jealous of the third-rank official who was enthroned by the court, so you contacted these people to rebel against me!" Yang Qinghou immediately pointed out his true intentions incisively.

Han Bin was slightly stunned, then smiled again: "So what? What do you know, a child with a yellow mouth?"

"I really don't know anything. I only know one thing. Because of your ambition and selfishness, hundreds of Cao Gang brothers have been killed and injured in vain. You even colluded with outsiders to kill me, the two helmsman, and have already committed the Cao Gang's decree!" Yang Qinghou said this, his eyes suddenly became murderous, "Now I will convict you of death as the gang leader!"

"Hmph, I knew this would be the result of success, the king was defeated." Han Bin said and looked directly at Yang Qinghou, "But don't think that killing us will end completely. The root of the disaster has been laid long ago and it will never be easily resolved."

Yang Qinghou looked back at him: "I know that besides you, there are many other people in my Cao Gang who are also dissatisfied with me and are also thinking of ways to plot against me. So I want you to tell me all these people."

"Haha, do you think I'm going to die and tell you this?"

"That's hard to say, after all, you, Guardian Han, also have concerns."

"You...what do you mean?"

"There is heaven and Suhang. Your children and concubines in Hangzhou are indeed living a very happy life. You have left them enough money for life. Even if you die here, you don't have to worry about them. I think you think so, so you are so bold and calm."

Han Bin's expression finally changed, from the indifference and calmness just now to panic and angry: "Yang Qinghou, don't do anything randomly, don't forget that we people in the martial arts world have always been more serious than our family..."

The people around him also showed hesitation, as if they wanted to persuade Yang Qinghou not to threaten Han Bin's family. But Yang Qinghou's last words made them unable to speak: "But don't forget that you broke the rules first! There is still a saying in our world that the world is in the world. But you, since you are the people of the Cao Gang, you should not collude with the government. So from then on, you are no longer a man from the Jianghu. You are already a lackey in the government. Why do your family still have to be protected by our people in the Jianghu? And just now, you never thought that you were a man from the Jianghu, and actually tempted me two lords to board the boat with outsiders... At this time, you remembered what rules in the Jianghu Gang? Do you really think that the rules of the Cao Gang are for you to want and throw away if you want?"

At the end, he even came to Han Bin, kicked him over, and then stepped on his feet: "Han Bin, if you want to save your family's life, tell me all those people, otherwise, within half a month, I will send them to accompany you! You can choose for yourself!" At this moment, Yang Qinghou finally showed his killing aura as the leader of the Cao Gang, which immediately shocked the audience.

Han Bin's body began to tremble violently, and he truly felt what it felt like to be afraid. After a while, he finally nodded: "I...I said..."

At the same time, on the other hand, Fan Yu was also in a state of dismay, and his face was full of fear. He no longer saw the arrogance and fearlessness he had just now. Because Li Ling had analyzed his current situation and told him that he had been given up by the government at this moment. Once he died, his so-called Huaibei Governor would only block the news and protect himself, rather than avenge him.

In this way, the Cao Gang members will no longer have any worries, and killing him is no different from killing a chicken.

When his biggest reliance suddenly disappeared, Fan Yu's arrogance disappeared, and his body swung, and he murmured: "How could this happen? How could this happen?" Then he remembered something and looked at Li Ling begging, "Young Master Li, you... Since you are a guest at the Cao Gang, you must be able to help me... As long as you speak, I will remember your kindness and will be rewarded in the future..." He was afraid of death, so he naturally would not miss any chance to survive.

Especially when he saw Han Bin being kicked over by Yang Qinghou and pointed a long sword into his heart, his fear of death filled his whole body. He didn't care about his face and identity, and he knelt in front of Li Ling with a thud and begged him.
