No matter how powerful Fushan Lie is, he can't bring Bejia's thousands of troops with him.
The high-ranking people present knew that some things simply could not be settled by sheer force.
Zhong Shengguang nodded: "If you have no objection, I will reject He Lingchuan's request."
The door of the Gange Hall was pushed open, and the red general strode in wearing dark red light armor.
She had just returned from the battlefield, and there was a fierceness in her actions.
Zhong Shengguang asked her: "How is the battle in Xihe River?"
"I stopped the two attempts of Baling. But there is little rain in autumn and winter and the water level is low. They will definitely try to cross the river again." The red general sat down with his golden sword on his horse and crossed his fingers under his chin. "Inside the army of Baling,
There are many new monsters appearing, and they all have some tricks."
"Could it have been sent by Bejia?" Zhao Xianhe was surprised, "This is not good. Bejia has never sent troops to the Panlong Wasteland before."
Bejia made several attempts to plot against Panlong City, all of which were done secretly. He either controlled Baling and Xianyou to attack Panlong Wasteland, or used Jindu Ghost Mother and mutated monster insects to invade Chipa Plateau.
Is this the first time that demon soldiers are directly sent to fight in Panlong Wasteland?
The meaning behind this move is not good.
Perhaps it indicates that Bejia has lost patience with Panlong City?
"We will ask you in detail after we have captured a few of them." The red general wore a mask, but everyone still felt her eyes glancing across his face, "What are you discussing?"
Zhong Shengguang then discussed the issue.
General Red picked up the emergency report from the table and glanced at it: "Interesting. If the purpose is to divide the gangs and isolate Fu Shanlie, there is no need to please the water bandits like this. Just send people to negotiate and appease the gangs. I think He Lingchuan still has a successor.
My hands are useless."
General Nan Ke was slightly surprised: "Do you support him?"
Zhong Shengguang was dumbfounded: "What a back-up plan, I didn't mention it in the emergency report."
"If you use it, then trust it." The Red General said nonchalantly, "I won't pay more than 30,000 taels of silver a year, let him play with it."
"More than 30,000." Zhao Xianhe pointed out, "The repair and maintenance of the Longchuan Trade Road cannot be done by the water bandits alone. Yuheng City must pay for it out of its own pocket. Besides, Yuheng City has been fighting water bandits for several months. Both sides
We have been enemies for a long time. Now that Yuheng City suddenly wants to please the water bandits, how can the army and the people be willing?"
"Public opinion can be channeled. Yuheng City has been doing well recently and its income has increased." General Hong said calmly, "I don't see what the problem is."
Zhong Shengguang frowned: "But..."
The young man's plan is full of nonsense.
"There is nothing wrong with dealing with General Bejia first. Drive the external forces out of Longchuan, and the bandits will not be a big problem." General Red threw the urgent report on the table, "Commander Zhong originally wanted to send Zhao Yin'an to command Yuheng City.
I temporarily replaced him with He Lingchuan, didn't I just want to test his talent? Now the opportunity has come, so I just want to observe it."
Zhong Shengguang pondered.
Zhao Xianhe was dissatisfied: "He Lingchuan's request is so whimsical, Master Zhong wouldn't really consider it, right? It's child's play to experiment with such a big thing!"
General Nan Ke seconded the proposal: "In the past, when we suppressed bandits in the Panlong Desert, how could we not be very effective? Even if Bejia sent people to sneak into Longchuan to cause trouble, it was only a team of people. If He Lingchuan can't do it, I am willing to lead troops to Longchuan.
Sichuan, catch them all in one fell swoop to avoid future troubles. Oh, why do you want to let Yuheng City play house with them?"
General Hong said calmly: "If Panlong City captures Jinying again in the future, and there are bandits there, will you go too?"
General Nan Ke did not hesitate: "Go."
"If there is a rebellion in Xiqian's old capital at the same time, can you go and put down the rebellion?"
"...I can divide the troops."
"What if at the same time the northern line of Panlong Desert encounters a dangerous situation?"
General Nan Ke was displeased: "General Red, there is no shortage of good generals in Panlong City."
"Panlong City wants to expand outwards. What it lacks the most is talents who can take charge of their own affairs." Red General asked him with his arms crossed. "Now, Panlong City sends troops to suppress every trouble in the old land of Xiqiao. In the future, our territory will expand more and more."
Da, do you think the Panlong Army and the Gale Army are all going to put out the fire?"
Zhong Shengguang hesitated for a long time and then said: "I just want to go to Yuheng City. I'll go and hear what He Lingchuan has to say."
Only when you listen is to believe, you can make a good decision.
The generals didn't say much. Like today's argument, once the red general is present, there is almost no suspense about the outcome, alas.
…
Longchuan, where the Xiqiao puppet army is stationed.
This place was originally the home base of the Lujia Gang. After the Xiqiao puppet army annexed it, Fu Shanlie fell in love with the complex terrain here.
This place is called Minghu Lake. There are seven large and small lakes connected to each other, with sparkling waves like a string of pearls. The grass growing on the lakeside can reach a height of ten feet, and people will lose their shadow when they walk in.
The islands in the lake are the base, and the surrounding aquatic monsters are the guards.
Fu Shanlie was taking a nap after lunch. His confidant quickly ran to the green bamboo couch and whispered: "General, please report."
Fushan Lie raised his eyelids and said, "Say."
"There is news from the inside of Qianjin Village that Tao Lin and Xu Zeshou met privately with the commander of Yuheng City, and the other party made an agreement for them."
"Commander? He Lingchuan?" Fu Shanlie opened his eyes, "What agreement?"
The confidant then reported the contents.
Fushan Lie sat up as soon as he heard this: "Has the agreement been reached?"
"Tao and Xu said they wanted to go back and discuss it."
"Yourou is ignorant." Fushan Lie said, "If it were me, I would agree on the spot."
"Yuheng City is afraid that I will kill all the people in Longchuan, so it wants to win over these useless people!" He pressed his temples, "I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf. This person named He is really a character."
"According to the inside story from the north, Yuhengcheng doesn't like his orders. He thinks it's superfluous to please the water bandits, and he wastes money excessively, which is not in line with the usual practices of Panlongcheng's army."
Fushan Lie was overjoyed when he heard this: "This is good news. Since he is the only one who advocates it, just kill him!"
With the death of the man named He, Yuheng City's bandit suppression strategy is likely to return to its old ways. His plan can continue.
This confidant came from Bejia and was still a little puzzled: "General, even if Panlong City captures Xiqiao, it is still a small area. Why do you want to take the initiative to come and deal with a surrendered city?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! General Fushan shined in the Battle of Yuan Kingdom. He was a young man who was late in the series of General Bega. He couldn't make meritorious service anywhere, so why did he choose this place? The dignified General Bega hangs around all day long.
In the water bandits' den, aren't they lowering their status? Even their subordinates have to fight the autumn wind on the dusty Takigawa trade road.
Fushan Lie glanced at him and knew all about the little Jiujiu in his belly: "Come to Longchuan with me, you won't be happy to let you eat too much ashes, will you?"
"No, no!" the confidant quickly denied, "This life is yours, so what's the big deal?"
"There are so many places like Panlong Wasteland and Xiqiao in the world. Where is it worthy of Lingxu City to take another look?" Fu Shanlie asked him, "Why does Lingxu City test Panlong City two or three times?"
"I don't know what a humble job is."
"There are a lot of things wrong here." Fushan Lie stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, "I heard that the gods enshrined in Panlong City are causing trouble and rain in the sky, and Holy Lord Lingxu is very unhappy; the army in Panlong City,
The Gale Army is also surprisingly powerful."
The confidant immediately said: "No matter how powerful it is, it is not as powerful as our Bejia."
"Really, have you competed?"
"No, no. But..." Bega's national power and military power dominate the world, and there are so many famous generals. How can this small Panlong City compare?
Fushan Lie snorted: "Compared to Bejia, Panlong Desert is indeed just a small place. But from the perspective of area and population, Panlong City's Yuan Power is unusually strong! This even attracted the attention of the gods. Again
Let them grow stronger and be more difficult to eradicate in the future. Xiqiao and Longchuan are excellent entry points. Panlong City has just taken this place into its hands and its rule is not yet stable. If you can cut off their extending arms and legs, you may be able to defeat them.
Panlong City continues to lose blood."
He put his hands behind his head: "I came here to make a wonderful move."
The confidant seemed to understand but said: "The general is wise."
Fushan Lie yawned again: "You know what P is, please step back."
…
More than a month later, Longchuan Qianjin Village.
The leader of the village, Tao Lin, had just gotten up from his nap and was stretching while walking.
Since signing an agreement with He Lingchuan and being employed by Yuheng City, Qianjinzhai, the largest gangster in Longchuan, has suddenly become a gangster, enjoying official status and steadily collecting road tax for dozens of days.
When the merchants saw these water bandits standing at the checkpoint holding licenses to collect fees, their eyes almost fell out of shock. If the Yuheng defenders were not nearby, they might have turned around and ran away.
The person surnamed He is right. It is really comfortable to receive money like this. There is no need to show off at all. People just smile and hand over the money willingly with both hands.
Collecting money under the guise of an official is justifiable.
After Qianjinzhai signed an agreement with the Qiuhua Gang, they told Longchuan to tell other gangs to stay away from their tolled roads so as not to cause trouble.
After so many days, only the Xiqiao puppet army did not give face. They robbed Dao'er twice, and succeeded once. The other time they were stopped by the defenders of Qianjin Village and Yuheng City, and they were beaten until blood flowed all over the ground.
But generally speaking, it is much more cost-effective to defend Dao than to rob Dao. Even Shoudao'er's casualty compensation is paid for by Yuheng City.
What did Commander He actually say?
Work injury report, that is, public reimbursement.
With Qianjinzhai and the Qiuhua Gang doing this, other small gangs had no chance of survival, so they simply imitated the big gangs and surrendered to Yuheng City.
However, Tao Lin always felt that the atmosphere in the village was a bit strange today. Many people gathered together and whispered, but when they saw him, they stopped talking and their eyes flickered.
Even when he went to relieve himself, there were always a few eyes following him behind him, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Tao Lin finally couldn't stand it anymore and pointed at everyone casually: "Tell me! What's going on? Everyone is staring at me with stern looks! What's the matter? I haven't had any work to do recently, so I'm holding you back?"
His prestige in the village is not low, everyone looks at each other in disbelief, no one wants to be the one who stands out.
Finally, someone pushed the lame man in front of the door and whispered: "Liu Laizi, what you saw, you come up!"
The lame man's leg was broken during a robbery three years ago. Since then he has been unable to ride a horse, so he can only stay in the village as a groom, foraging hay and cleaning horse manure all day long.
Tao Lin's eyes narrowed: "Come here! What did you see?"
