Chapter 888 Face-to-Face Reporting

"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 causing trouble. 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 the Red General 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 who had no place on the stage. Why did Yuheng City treat them as masters?

Not to mention that the water bandits not only took away the 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 extra money.

This is equivalent to using the money of good people 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 Panlong City faction guarding the territory, and was no longer the small soldier of 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. Panlong City can be even 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 to handle this matter, we cannot rely on Panlong City and the Gale Army. 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, "Finally we have to do it. Only when the Yuheng Army becomes 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 it and Panlong City be the horns of each other, guarding each other," He Lingchuan said slowly, "This window period is very short, and Yuheng City cannot waste time on the civil strife and the puppet army in Xiqiao. ”

"Go on."

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

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

"Qianjinzhai and Qiuhua Gang took the lead in accepting the amnesty. Now Longchuan is in chaos. Fushan Lie led the Xiqie puppet army to kill Xu Zeshou, the leader of the Qiuhua Gang. Qianjinzhai, Qiuhua Gang and other gangs have united to fight against them. I took the opportunity to insert a lot of Yuheng soldiers into Longchuan. Our spies are everywhere in Longchuan."

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

"Now that the situation is good, we should add more fuel! Half of Longchuan is under our control. We just need to defeat the Xijiao puppet army, and the bandit problem will be eliminated!"

"The bandit problem will be eliminated?" Zhong Shengguang laughed, "How do you know that these water bandits in Qianjinzhai will not rebel again? You recruited them with money, not with military power. They are not reverent enough and are cunning. Once the situation changes, they will inevitably have second thoughts."

He used to clean up the bandit nests in Panlong Desert without mercy, and those who did many evil things were slaughtered without leaving a single one. The Panlong Army's reputation as a killing god will spread, and other fierce bandits will surrender.

Like He Lingchuan, who tempted them with benefits, Longchuan water bandits will neither fear power nor cherish virtue, which will lay hidden dangers for the future.

He Lingchuan shook his head: "On the contrary, my method can solve the Longchuan bandit problem and let Yuheng City firmly control the entire Xijiao territory, and it will be bloodless and once and for all!"
