Li Meng brought three thousand soldiers to Minggang City. The first thing he did was blow up the city wall. He heard the thunderous sound like a god of thunder. Everyone was frightened as he saw the large area of the city wall collapse.
There are city guards in the city. They are not private soldiers, but belong to the territory, which means they are now owned by Jiang Xingchen. However, they have something to do with the big families in the city. This time, in order not to let Jiang Xingchen take over successfully and to give Jiang Xingchen a warning, the city guards went on a collective strike and did not even put up the city wall. They all hid around the city gate and watched secretly, preparing to appreciate the reactions of the people.
Unexpectedly, this was just right for Li Meng, so he could not drive people down and take out the bomb and explode it.
The city guards hidden in the dark were scared. Fortunately, they were not on the city wall, so they would be killed. Who would this be to help? Should they take over Minggang City or attack Da Chen?
Go forward to stop it? Forget it! Who dares? They said it was the city guard, but they had never even caught the bandits.
The big families were also confused. They didn't want Jiang Xingchen to take over Minggang City, just to ensure their own interests. Who knew that the people from Xingchen were so cruel, and they would blow up the city wall first. They wouldn't even blow up our family later. This is too savage!
As for the security team in the city, let alone stopping it, the face was not exposed.
The civilians were even more terrified and looked like they met a group of thugs’ little wife.
Minggang City has a large area, with a total area of hundreds of square miles and four walls, each with about ten miles on it. It is impossible to blow up all in a short time.
Li Meng didn't wait long and walked out of the exploded hole, followed by more than a dozen soldiers, looking fierce. The common people ran away. They were already scared, and they certainly couldn't avoid it when they saw Li Meng's fierce look.
Li Meng didn't care and waved his hand back. A soldier took out the paper full of words with him and stuck it on a wall.
"Who knows how to get to the City Lord's Mansion? Come out and get a way and reward a big coin!" Li Meng looked around and asked loudly.
When the escaped people heard this, they couldn't help but beat up. A big coin was a waste of money.
Although I was scared, a few people turned around and prepared to earn this big coin.
"You! Come here!" Li Meng pointed to a thin man and greeted him loudly.
"Me?" The thin man pointed at himself. His face turned a little pale. It was really terrible that Li Meng's behavior of blowing up the city wall when he came up was too terrible.
"Yes, you'll lead the way!" Li Meng nodded, shook his hand and threw it over with a big coin.
After the thin man took it, he smiled on his face. Although he was still a little scared, since he gave the money, he would definitely not hurt himself.
"Come with me, I'll take you there!" The thin man bowed forward.
Li Meng stepped forward and shouted: "Look at what is written on the wall. After a while, the head of the city guards and the security team will come to the lord's mansion to find me!"
Soon, Li Meng led a group of people and disappeared around the corner of the street. Only then did the city guards dare to come out and slowly moved to the white paper posted on the wall.
The above is very simple, it is nothing more than Jiang Xingchen taking over Minggang City, hoping that all walks of life will cooperate. In addition, it is to let the head of the city guard and the head of the public security team meet.
"How is it, will you go?" A city guard officer whispered to the head of the city guard beside him!
"Go! How can I not go? Listen!" The leader of the city guard was helpless. There were still explosions outside. He was just a bunch of bandits!
"Where is the security team? Will you please inform me?"
"I'm not sure if he is unlucky. Let's go!" A group of city guards surrounded the leaders and drove quickly.
As they left, the city gate became chaotic and the civilians were talking.
"That person was Jiang Xingchen just now? He was so fierce. No wonder he was famous. It looked scary!"
"That person is definitely not Jiang Xingchen. Jiang Xingchen is only in his early twenties, and this person looks like he is in his thirties!"
"Don't worry, it's because Xingchen brought it out, and it blows up the city wall as soon as it comes up. What are they going to do?"
"I don't care what they do, just don't move the port ships. I'm still pointing to make a living on the boat!"
"Minggang City is famous for its ports. Xingchen Ling must have come from the port. Why don't the port move?"
"I'll go, don't be alarmist..."
"It's not alarmist at all. Don't you know that the Xingchen Leader also has the strength at sea? I heard that the Linhai City in Dali is now under his command..."
"That's not OK. If he destroys my job, I will fight hard for him!"
"Boom~" Another explosion, the civilians were so scared that they shivered. The one who said they were trying hard to find someone and stopped talking. They were trying hard to find those bandits. Isn't that looking for abuse? If they were not done properly, they would be beaten to death!
On the other hand, several large households in the city gathered together. Listening to the constant explosions from the city gate, their faces turned pale. They originally wanted to give Xingchen a warning, but they didn't expect that the opposite is true now.
"How is it? Do you still need to continue?"
"Stay up, don't you see how violent they are? If they get angry, they will definitely burn your ship!"
"What should we do?"
"Go and visit. If you can cooperate, cooperate. I hope Jiang Xingchen will not be interested in the ocean..."
At this time, Li Meng had already arrived at the lord's mansion, and the leader of the Uncity Guard also came.
"Are you the leader of the city guard?" Li Meng asked and immediately said: "From now on, your city guards will listen to my orders. Do you understand?"
The leader looked bitter, and he was reluctant to do so in his heart, but he had to agree on the surface. Otherwise, he would not know if he could walk out of this yard...
But next time, the leader was about to curse, and Li Meng actually asked him to take the city guards to help clear the city wall. This is a work done by laborers, so please let my city guards do it.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Meng narrowed his eyes and took out the folded crossbow from his waist.
"Go! I'll go right away!" The leader wailed in his heart. Who told me that Xingchen was going to come and asked me to find a guarantee to kill you. He is a bandit there, a bandit who kills people without blinking.
Not long after, the civilians who were already attracted by the huge movement were stunned. They saw thousands of city guards carrying bricks on the side of the city walls!
Afterwards, the big families in the city also came to visit, and then they learned that Jiang Xingchen would not come at all. The bandit named Li Meng kept his word here.
The security team, which had not appeared, was directly banned by Li Meng and stated that they would not be paid in the future.
The commercial banks and the big businesses in the city looked at each other in a long time. They had a great experience. The entire security team said that they would ban it.
Of course, the security team stopped doing it after hearing this. They rushed to cause trouble with great momentum. A group of soldiers behind Li Meng did not speak, took out a folded crossbow and fired it, specifically hitting it on his legs.
The crossbows they brought were all fired steel balls, and they could penetrate the skull within a hundred meters, not to mention that they were so close. In a moment, there was a wail in the city lord's mansion, and the people in the security team were all broken.
The bigwigs looked at them all, and they were so scared that they sweated coldly. The tail bones were rising and their tongues were rolled up.
After hearing about it, the leader of the city guard who was carrying bricks on the city walls was covered in white sweat. He felt so glad that they were so happy. They really dared to fight, but fortunately they were obedient, otherwise they would have had their legs broken.
After this incident, everyone became honest. Although the big players also have masters, who dares to compete with the folding crossbow? Isn’t that going to die? Let’s wait and see what’s going on...
A few days later, a large number of workers led by Xingchen arrived and joined the work of demolishing the city walls. They said that destruction is easier than construction, and this is not false at all. In just five days, the walls of Minggang City, a total of forty-mile long were completely demolished. The people's horizons were broad. Many business companies with business with the fleet came here and were stunned. Their first thought was, is this still Minggang City, and what about the city walls?
Afterwards, countless vehicles arrived, the craftsmen began planning, quickly selected the location, and established temporary residences in a large open space in the west of the city, while the production base extended outside the city.
There were constant carriages coming and going, tens of thousands of people were working on the construction, and the scene was in full swing. At this time, people in Minggang City realized that it seemed that they were not coming for overseas transportation business.
Not to mention this, there were suddenly tens of thousands of people, and people ate and chewed by horses, which increased the prosperity of Minggang City by a lot, and many merchants benefited a lot.
Gradually, more merchants went to the construction site to find Xingchencheng's procurement contact business. They didn't say much about the purchase volume, and they never delayed the accounts.
The big players also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Xingchen Leader took over Minggang City as a bad thing!
The leaders of the city guards felt that they were good. After a few days of hard work on moving bricks, they were idle. They didn't even have to climb the city walls, just stayed in the military camp, and went out to patrol from time to time, which could be said to have replaced the work of the security team...
Minggang City quickly got on track, and Jiang Xingchen was very happy to receive a letter from Li Meng. At this point, there was basically no problem with the laying of the light rail road.
Now that most of the production industries are moved away, only the earliest blacksmith shops, glass kilns, and cement production plants are left here.
The blacksmith shop wanted to help Xianning do the experiment, and the glass was still being studied, and the flat glass had not yet come out. The cement factory was for use at several large construction sites.
Although there is still a huge construction site for the construction of the new city, Jiang Xingchen still feels much cleaner after so many steam engines are missing.
After leaving the Lord's Mansion, Jiang Xingchen went to the Research Institute, where the university was under construction. Although it was much smaller than the new city, since there were mountains on both sides, the construction of underground pipelines was not easy, and it would probably take a short time.
After watching the construction site for a while, Jiang Xingchen then went to find Xianning to see the design progress of the steam locomotive.
When he entered the laboratory, Jiang Xingchen saw Ni'er at first sight. He was holding a pen and lowering his head to write and draw. His little face was tightly tight and he kept frowning.
"What is this girl doing?" Jiang Xingchen quietly walked behind Ni'er! (To be continued.)
