In Yuzhou.

During the days when Cizhao was addicted to martial soul research, the outside world was not at all safe, and the confrontation between the Song Dynasty and the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce was even more exciting.

If you really want to say who is the predatory confrontation between the Song Dynasty and the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce in the past few days, then there is no doubt that the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce is here.

Although the Song Dynasty has stabilized its position in the past few days, the famous officials in the camp have not allowed the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce to successfully attack.

But after the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce turned the gun and targeted the awakened martial souls in the Song Dynasty, it quickly caught the Song Dynasty again.

In just a few days, more than twenty martial soul awakenings in the Song Dynasty were taken away by the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce.

And this is just an appetizing side dish, the real big problem lies in the environment of the entire Yuzhou.

Originally, the Song Dynasty took a heavy hand and violently eliminated the aristocratic families and chambers of commerce in just half a month.

His move had a serious follow-up impact on the Song Dynasty. It was nothing originally, and it could still be suppressed by famous officials such as Kou Zhun.

As a result, because they faced the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce, and Fu Bi and Han Qi were captured one after another, there is no good governance environment in the Song Dynasty.

Under the entire situation, the entire Yuzhou can be said to be full of chaos.

What's so bad is that the Song Dynasty encircled and suppressed the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce several times.

However, due to the strength of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce and the information provided by Liu Cheng behind it, the encirclement and suppression of the Song Dynasty several times was wiped out, which made the Song Dynasty fall into a quagmire situation.

At this time, the Song Dynasty had to admit that they had done something stupid because they had seriously underestimated the strength of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce from the beginning, and they had done something stupid to compete with the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce for billions of "fly head profits".

But now that things have come to this point, it is useless to regret it.

In this case, the Song Dynasty could only be a hero who cut off his arm.

Zhao Pu, the chief assistant of the Song Dynasty, stood up and started the purge of the entire Yuzhou with millions of troops as the backing of the Song Dynasty.

The million-dollar army was divided into six branches, garrisoned in Runan, Yingchuan, Chen County, Pei County, Lu County and Liang County. At the same time, a survey of the six counties was conducted and the household registration of these six counties was re-edited.

All the people are included in their household registration and issued a government order. As long as the people can report a thief from the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce, they can receive corresponding rewards.

This approach is one of the only effective means that the Song Dynasty can do to deal with the elusive White Lotus Chamber of Commerce.

After using this trick, the situation has indeed improved a lot.

In just a few days, a large number of spies suspected to be the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce were cleared out, and the originally chaotic situation was effectively curbed.

What surprised them even more was that after they started to act, a big fish soon fell on Chen County and Pei County.

On Chen County, the deep-hidden stronghold of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce was directly taken over, and even Han Shantong, who was in charge of the affairs in Yuzhou, almost failed to arrest him.

On Pei County, he accidentally caught a small vine, and then followed the clues and pulled out a huge network. In three days, the Bailian Chamber of Commerce stronghold in Pei County was also cut off. Except for the head of the stronghold and several senior staff who ran away, the rest were basically taken down.

Within five days, he took down two extremely core strongholds of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce. It can be said that these two actions alone were so smooth that even the Song Dynasty was a little dumbfounded.

What Da Song didn't expect was that their luck was even more amazing than they expected.

When the Song Dynasty took over the strongholds in Chen County, it did not get any very gratifying gains except for the thousands of members of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce, but the situation in the strongholds in Pei County was different.

In Pei County, they not only captured several middle and senior executives of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce, but also dug up many shocking secrets.

It was also in Pei County that the Song Dynasty learned that the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce had actually joined forces with the mysterious organization called [Zhong]. The awakened martial souls they harvested during this period were sent to the [Zhong] Research Institute.

Of course, although this news was amazing, the attention of Da Song was more attracted by another news at this time.

This so-called other news is actually the news that Han Qi, one of the two important officials in the hands of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce in the Song Dynasty.

In fact, when I received this news, Da Song suddenly became nervous.

The reason is very simple. This news came too coincidental, so it was difficult not to associate it with the conspiracy.

However, Han Qi was an important official of the Song Dynasty after all. No matter whether this was a conspiracy or not, if there was a possibility of rescuing him, the Song Dynasty must go and rescue him. Even if it was a trap, they had to grit their teeth and jump.

So Da Song took action after making full preparations to step on the trap. What surprised Da Song was that although the process of rescuing Han Qi was not very smooth, there were no traps, and Han Qi was eventually rescued by them.

After rescuing Han Qi and repeatedly confirming that there was no problem, Han Qi sent them another very important information, which completely overturned the Song Dynasty's understanding of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce.

Originally, the Song Dynasty believed that the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce should be an organization in the Great Zhou Dynasty that has been passed down for hundreds of years. At most, some people linked the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce with the White Lotus Cult.

It is believed that the power of the White Lotus inherited from the Great Zhou Dynasty combined with the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce, but with the news brought by Han Qi, the Song Dynasty had to doubt the nature of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce.

The message Han Qi brought back was that the person in charge of the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce who attacked him in Pei County was named Huang Chao, who was the Tang Dynasty who used human flesh as military rations.

And more importantly, during the period when Han Qi was imprisoned, he also discovered that the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce seemed to know about Huang Chao's identity, and by some chance, Han Qi also knew that there seemed to be many people like Huang Chao in the White Lotus Chamber of Commerce.

More importantly, in the secret stronghold where Han Qi was rescued, a list of incomplete White Lotus Chamber of Commerce was found in the Song Dynasty.

There are not many names on it, only five. Although the names on the Song Dynasty are not known to everyone, they are basically thieves, including Dong Zhuo in the late Han Dynasty and Huang Chao in the late Tang Dynasty...

It is hard not to doubt such a list.

What kind of organization is this White Lotus Chamber of Commerce, and why are there so many thieves in its internal members?

But no, is this White Lotus Chamber of Commerce actually a force composed of traitors from all over China for five thousand years?

As soon as this guess came out, everyone in Da Song immediately numbed their scalp...
