Volume 5 Chapter 24 Interest Issues

I secretly gave myself the middle finger.
I don't know whether Tieti did it intentionally or unintentionally, but he just announced his surrender to the Thunder Alliance in front of all the bosses. You know, this Iron Blood Headquarters was not taken down by me, Blood Sky, alone. What will the other bosses think?
But it was not without benefits. Tieti surrendered in front of so many people, so he could not go back on his word, and his attitude was clear, becoming a subsidiary gang of Jinglei League. With the combined strength of Jinglei Tiexue, even if other bosses were dissatisfied, they would have to think twice before opposing.
The most urgent thing is that I must appease those bosses, at least to stabilize them temporarily, so I said: "Brother Tieti, this matter is of great importance. Since you are willing to surrender, there will be no more fighting within the Pojun from now on. This is a good thing for both sides. However, we still need to hold a meeting to discuss before we can formulate the final peace plan. At present, brother Tieti cannot be considered a member of the big alliance. I hope you go to reorganize and restrain your alliance’s troops first. After we finish the discussion, I will give brother Tieti a satisfactory answer. I hope you don’t mind?” As I said this, I winked at Tieti. Tieti understood and said happily : "It’s okay, then I will leave for the time being." After that, he turned and walked out.
As soon as Tieti left, the hall fell silent. Everyone had an expression of wanting to say something but stopping themselves. I understood their thoughts. They were unwilling to see Tiexue join the Jinglei League, but they didn't dare to offend me easily. They all hoped that someone would be the first to speak out in opposition so that they would follow suit.
How could I give them this opportunity? So I took the initiative and said, "Everyone, the coalition has won a great victory this time, which is worth celebrating. However, according to our original plan, we wanted to completely wipe out the Iron Blood. Now that the Iron Hoof has surrendered, it saves us a lot of effort. I think we should accept the surrender and not waste our strength by fighting among ourselves. What do you think?"
"Brother Sky, this isn't a good idea, right? Although Tieti has agreed to surrender, what if he just takes the opportunity to catch his breath and then rebels again in the future? It is safer to cut the grass and uproot it." Thermos said.
Haha, this person's words are full of leeway, and he didn't directly involve the issue of interests, so let me make it clear, so I said: "After these few battles, the Iron Blood's vitality has been greatly damaged, and it has become a subsidiary gang of my Thunder Alliance. I will definitely impose more restrictions on it and arrange monitoring methods. How can I be afraid of him rebelling?"
Someone said, "It's still not right. We should be prepared for the worst. When the coalition forces go to war outside and the Iron Blood rebels inside, it won't just be your Jinglei League that will suffer, the entire Grand Alliance will suffer heavy losses. We should kill them all."
Hey, you still don't want to speak out? Why are you afraid of Iron Blood rebelling? It's because you are unwilling to see the Thunder Alliance grow stronger. My face darkened and I said angrily, "Everyone, let's be frank. Iron Blood has surrendered to the Thunder Alliance, and I will be responsible for all the consequences. If Iron Blood rebels in the future, the Thunder Alliance will compensate for all the damages caused to the Grand Alliance. Now that Iron Blood is a subsidiary gang of our alliance, if you insist on continuing to attack, you will be making things difficult for me."
As expected, everyone's expressions changed, and someone finally couldn't help but say, "Brother Sky, isn't this a bit unfair? Tiexue was conquered by everyone with their efforts, but in the end it all belonged to your Jinglei League. This is unacceptable!"
I turned my anger into laughter and said, "Brother Tiantang, why do you say that? How can you say that everything belongs to my Jinglei League? Before the war, we had already agreed that the Iron Blood headquarters would belong to Luanshi, and its three branches and the 18 settlements of the seven remaining small gangs of the Iron Blood Alliance, except for one for each gang, the rest would be given as rewards depending on the performance of each faction in this war. But we didn't say how to deal with the Iron Blood personnel! Tieti is willing to surrender to our alliance, that is his personal freedom, no one can force it, right? But the agreement we have agreed on should be implemented according to the original plan. Everyone thinks that my Jinglei League has taken advantage, so I will only take the one that my alliance deserves, and I will not fight for those settlements that are rewards for meritorious gangs, including the three branches of Iron Blood that have not been captured. In addition, since Iron Blood has surrendered, the Iron Blood Alliance will naturally disband, and the seven small gangs will be divided up by you, you won’t suffer much, right?"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. I did make a huge concession. If you think about it carefully, the Thunder Alliance suffered a great loss in obtaining the base in addition to annexing the original Iron Blood's men. Iron Blood did not disband, but joined the Thunder Alliance in a complete form as a subsidiary gang. It is still hard to predict whether it will be a blessing or a curse for the Thunder Alliance in the future. If we continue to oppose, we will be tearing our faces against the Thunder Alliance. What's the benefit? It's better to get more practical benefits!
Then no one raised any objections, and the Grand Alliance finally accepted Tiexue's joining the Thunder Alliance.
I went out to find Tieti, told him the results of the meeting, and said, "Brother Tieti, I have made the decision without authorization and asked you to give up those three branches - deducting the one station that the Thunder Alliance should have received in this battle, you have to give up two. From now on, the brothers of the Iron Blood Alliance can only be wronged in a small territory. Will you be dissatisfied or even regret your decision to surrender to our alliance?"
Tieti sneered: "Why would you be dissatisfied? These territories are only loaned out temporarily!"
The two smiled at each other, and everything was said without words.
When the big tree fell, the monkeys scattered. The coalition forces were planning to continue attacking the seven small gangs the next day, but they all announced their surrender on the same day. This result was actually expected. If these gangs were the kind that would rather disband than rely on others, they would not have joined the Iron Blood Alliance .
However, in order to allocate these gangs and bases, another quarrel broke out within the alliance. Of course, this time it had nothing to do with the Thunder Alliance. I could have stayed out of it and did not even attend the meeting in person. I sent my favorite fish eater as my representative.
But I was not idle either. How to deal with the Iron Blood was still a headache for me. If I didn't control it at all, how could I feel at ease? But if I weakened its strength too much, it would inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of the Iron Blood members.
After a long talk with Tieti, we decided that Tiexue, as a subsidiary gang of the Thunder Alliance, would still have considerable independence and autonomy. However, although the alliance rules did not have to be as strict as those of the Thunder Alliance, it must change its past style of work. It was strictly forbidden to bully others, PK without reason, etc. Any member who was considered unable to accept the new rules would be expelled.
As a result, Tiexue has shrunk greatly. After several defeats, about 20,000 people have left the alliance, which originally had 100,000 members. Half of the remaining 80,000 were expelled in this rectification, which is almost the same as disbanding and rebuilding. However, the remaining ones are naturally loyal to Tieti and have high quality. However, the more troublesome thing is that among those who left, there was a man named Rexue Haoqing who had co-founded the business with Tieti and was the second-in-command of Tiexue. He did not agree with Tieti's decision to surrender to Jinglei League. Now he thinks that I am going to kill Tiexue completely and that they can only be dogs under my command in the future. So he broke up with Tieti in anger. Most of the players who left the alliance gathered under him. He threatened to take these brothers away to start a new business and will definitely be the enemy of Jinglei League and Tiexue in the future.
But that will be a matter of the distant future. To be honest, I doubt that in today's Cang Continent, no matter which city, it is unlikely to succeed in establishing a new force and becoming successful.
When the big alliance finally finished dividing up the benefits and took over those small gangs and their bases one by one, two more days had passed. In addition, Fantasy was shut down again on December 1 for upgrading. It was not until December 3 that the coalition forces were finally able to put the attack on Jiucheng on the agenda. Unfortunately, it was too late. According to the information sent by Lian Zhen, Jiucheng had already ceased fighting with Shengtang and Yuntian. In the battles of the previous few days, Jiucheng had a slight advantage, but the outcome was not completely determined. At this time, the news of Tiexue's defeat came. Wumeng took the initiative to propose a truce to Shengtang Yuntian. The two major forces were a little overwhelmed and naturally agreed immediately. At present, Jiucheng was ready for battle. If the coalition forces attacked at this time, they could only fight hard and would not gain any advantage.
I sighed in my heart, this is the disadvantage of the alliance, if the Po army was unified by a single force, I am afraid that the army would have turned around and attacked Jiucheng on the day of conquering Tiexue. At that time, the main force of Jiucheng was still entangled with Shengtang Yuntian. Even if it was not conquered in one fell swoop, it would suffer a great loss and lose several garrisons. But now it is not so easy.
Since they knew that they couldn't easily take down the Nine Cities, the Grand Alliance decided not to send troops for the time being and to settle down the internal situation thoroughly first. At present, all the neutral gangs in Pojun City had no choice but to apply for membership. Now, of course, the Grand Alliance will accept all applicants and approve them all. The more small gangs join, the larger the coalition will be. When we are fully prepared, we will fight against the Nine Cities. Even if we compete head-on, we can still defeat the Nine Cities.
I am also happy to have some time to sort out internal affairs. The Thunder Alliance now has six branches. Except for the original violent groups and the Sword Alliance, which have been rebuilt long ago, the other four are still deserted. Now that the internal situation is basically stable, it is necessary to renovate these four bases. So I mobilized the people in the alliance, especially architects and craftsmen, to start branch construction activities.
But I face a big problem: insufficient funds!
The income of the Thunder Alliance is increasing every day. If it were peacetime, we would have made a fortune. However, during the war, money was spent like water, so that the inventory was basically dry. It was barely enough to maintain daily expenses, but building a base would cost hundreds of thousands, not to mention that four branches were started at the same time!
Although our alliance already has many senior architects and craftsmen, which can save a lot of money on hiring NPCs, we still have to pay for materials and the wages of the alliance members who participate in the labor, right?
Of course, I have the confidence to spend so much money because I received a great piece of news: the Pioneer Merchant Corps is coming back and will be returning to the Thunder Alliance headquarters soon!
