After the immortal disappeared

"That's more than that. But it's best to use the Dragon Punishment Pillar one at a time. After collecting the Nightmare Qi, don't use it to collect other objects, otherwise it will be difficult to separate later." Zhong Shengguang paused, "Of course, if you collect it and feed it to Dafang Kettle, then it doesn’t matter.”

"That's it!" He Lingchuan nodded repeatedly, "That's it, that's good!"

Xing Longzhu is really a treasure, and his whims seem to be getting more and more reliable.

"Okay, let's talk about one more serious matter." Zhong Shengguang's face was serious, "I already know the way you recruited the Anlong River water bandits. It seems to have some effect so far, but I don't agree with it. Many complaints have been sent to me. The soldiers in Yuheng City and the civilians near Longchuan are very dissatisfied with your actions and think that Yuheng City is breeding bandits. Someone rushed from Yuheng City to Panlong City to file a complaint against you."

The distance from Yuheng City to Panlong City is not short. He Lingchuan thought that this "petition" was very determined.

The civilians near Longchuan were once targets of plunder by water bandits. Of course, they couldn't bear to think about He Lingchuan's practice of "raising tigers for danger" and were very angry.

He Lingchuan opened his mouth, but Zhong Shengguang waved his hand to interrupt him: "I have held several meetings about this matter, and others also disapproved of it, but General Red insisted that you should be given a chance. To be honest, these meetings were not very pleasant. .”

Even the senior officials of Panlong City also believed that even if Bejia was secretly causing trouble, the Longchuan water bandits were always a rabble with no reputation. Why did Yuheng City treat them as masters?

Not to mention that the water bandits not only took away road tax, but also received salary from Yuheng City, which itself harmed Yuheng City's financial income.

Not only can’t you earn road tax, but you also have to spend money abroad.

This is equivalent to using good people's money to support water bandits. It is of a very bad nature. No wonder the military and the people are opposed to it.

To deal with this kind of enemy, Panlongcheng's consistent approach is to conquer with force and suppress with force. Once defeated, the opponent will naturally become softer.

Over the past decade or so, this style of play has been very popular in Panlong Wasteland.

"So I came to Yuheng City to hear your overall plan." This was also an opportunity Zhong Shengguang gave He Lingchuan. "I should have come a month ago."

He Lingchuan immediately said: "Thank you very much, Commander!"

He has been an official for several months, his emotional intelligence has soared, and he knows that there is no need to say everything clearly. Zhong Shengguang should have arrived a month ago, but he was delayed until now. Why?

Delaying the trip for more than a month was to buy He Lingchuan time.

As long as He Lingchuan can achieve actual results, he will be more convincing than glib words.

Now it seems that Zhong Shengguang's choice was correct. He Lingchuan's method indeed cost the least, but it advanced the progress of the bandit suppression by a large margin.

But He Lingchuan noticed that what Zhong Shengguang wanted to hear was his "overall plan," which was the part that was not mentioned in Wen Daolun's report.

Yes, he knew very well that Wen Daolun sent a report to Panlong City.

Mr. Wen has always been gentle and gentle. To do this shows that he is really angry.

But He Lingchuan is not worried about his superiors replacing him. He concluded that Zhong Shengguang would either ask him to suspend his plan or ask him to return to Panlong City to report on his duties, and the latter was more likely. After all, He Lingchuan was already an important member of the Panlongcheng faction that defended the territory, and was no longer a small soldier in the past.

Zhong Shengguang still has to give him enough respect in terms of face.

Some words are more convincing when spoken face to face than dry written words.

But Zhong Shengguang's reaction was better than he expected, and he actually came over in person.

Although Commander Zhong's main purpose was to meet Lu Xun, it still showed that he attached great importance to He Lingchuan.

He gave He Lingchuan the most direct opportunity and hoped that He Lingchuan could take advantage of it.

It is no longer appropriate to hide your clumsiness at this time. He Lingchuan must impress the supreme ruler of Panlong City:

"The primary task of Yuheng City is to maintain the smooth flow and safety of the Longchuan trade road, rather than to eliminate how many water bandits. With this artery, the entire Panlong Wasteland can receive a steady stream of money, food, and people from the outside world. Only then can Panlong City become stronger! For example, Mr. Lu’s visit and our later interactions with Lingshan must be based on the smooth flow of trade routes. In comparison, Yuheng City’s own income is insignificant.”

Zhong Shengguang hummed, and after considering everything from his perspective, there was indeed such a measurement.

In a sense, Longchuan Trade Road is another lifeline of Panlong City.

"But we can't rely on Panlong City and the Gale Army to handle this matter. We have been fighting for years in the Panlong Wasteland, and recently Ba Ling invaded our border. How can the Gale Army have the energy to take care of our place?" He Lingchuan sighed, "We finally have it. Only by relying on the Yuheng Army to become stronger can we ensure the safety of the Longchuan Trade Road and the eastern gateway of Panlong."

Zhong Shengguang listened quietly.

"You just said that the crisis in Panlong City actually comes from Bejia. With Mitian and Dafanghu here, it will never let Panlong City go. Only by eliminating the source of civil strife in the old land of Xiqiao as soon as possible can the general Only when the Yuheng Army has become a warrior capable of hundreds of battles can Panlong City and Panlong City be the horns of each other and watch each other." He Lingchuan said slowly, "This window period is very short, and Yuheng City cannot waste time on Xiqian's civil strife and the puppet army. .”

"Go on."

"Therefore, the Longchuan water bandits will not be suppressed unless they are suppressed, but they must be suppressed quickly." He Lingchuan added, "They have always been secretly supported by Jin Yong and Beijia, so they must cut through the mess quickly to prevent internal and external troubles from colluding together and opening up holes. The greater the blockage."

Who can compete with Bega? Yuheng City is definitely unbeatable, so be quick!

"Qianjinzhai and the Qiuhua Gang took the lead in accepting the recruitment. Now Longchuan is in chaos. Fushanlie led the Xiqiao puppet army to attack and kill Xu Zeshou, the leader of the Qiuhua Gang. Qianjinzhai, the Qiuhua Gang and other gangs have joined forces. To fight against it, I took the opportunity to send many Yuheng soldiers in, and there are our spies everywhere inside Longchuan."

There are new changes in Longchuan every day. The residents of Yuheng City don't know about it, and Panlong City may not know about it either.

"Now that the situation is great, it's time to add more firewood! Half of Taki River is already under our control, and we just need to defeat the Xiqiao puppet army and eliminate the banditry!"

"The banditry will be eliminated soon?" Zhong Shengguang smiled, "How do you know that the water bandits in Qianjinzhai will not rebel again? You recruited them with money, not with military force. They lack awe and are cunning. Once the situation arises, If there are changes, it’s inevitable that you won’t be able to change your mind.”

He used to clean up the bandit dens in the Panlong Desert without mercy, and slaughtered the entire den of those who committed evil deeds without leaving a single one behind. If the reputation of the Panlong Army's killing power spreads, other ruthless bandits will look for help.

Like He Lingchuan, who lured them with benefits, the Longchuan water bandits were not afraid of power or immoral, so they laid hidden dangers for the future.

He Lingchuan shook his head: "On the contrary, my method can solve the banditry problem in Longchuan and allow Yuheng City to firmly control the entire Xiqiao realm. It can be done once and for all without any bloodshed!"
