"If you have to be careful and cautious even in a simulation, then there's no point in it."

Qin Che stared at Huang Shiyao's corpse, then unleashed a flurry of flying blades, killing the guards who had rushed in.

The border guards are all elites.

Even so, they are still as vulnerable as ants when facing the extraordinary.

The entire diplomatic corps was shocked; everyone was so frightened that they retreated and scattered in all directions.

Li Xin, Lina, and the others watched in shock as Qin Che made his move. No one could have imagined that he would actually have the guts to kill Huang Shiyao.

He is the king of Fortress 21.

For so many years, he has been self-governing and dictatorial here, and his power is deeply entrenched. Killing him will definitely provoke a fierce backlash from the fortress!

As expected,

An alarm sounded at Fort 21.

Upon learning of the attack on the head of state, countless border guards led their troops to provide reinforcements.

However, what they saw here was a ground littered with corpses and stained with blood.

Qin Che showed no mercy.

Together with Li Xin, who reacted quickly, they wiped out the border guards here.

Only a portion of the troops who surrendered voluntarily remained; the rest were all dead, their corpses piled up like mountains in the council hall, all four walls were broken, and more than a dozen armored vehicles were burned and destroyed.

Li Xin turned all the invading enemies into molecules.

Qin Che's flying blades maneuvered around Fortress 21, killing anyone they encountered.

That night, Fortress 21 was drenched in blood!

Ultimately, they learned from the surrendered officers that Huang Shiyao had never intended to negotiate. After dealing with Qin Che, he planned to lead his troops to withdraw from Fortress 21 and let the alien races move south and invade the desert.

How did you find out about this?

Afterwards, Li Xin asked him with a surprised look.

Qin Che shrugged: "I didn't know at first, but the result was right. Obviously, Huang Shiyao had to die."

Upon hearing this, Li Xin fell silent.

Qin Che's sudden attack had caught him off guard.

But think about it, if Huang Shiyao were to leave this fortress, the alien species would definitely invade the desert, and then another war would be inevitable.

Now, by taking the initiative to kill Huang Shiyao, they still have ample time to set up defenses in the border area.

Li Xin sent a telegram instructing the Northern Expeditionary Army to dispatch elite troops to garrison Fortress No. 21.

Qin Che left his men here to handle the battlefield and reorganize the administrative organs, in order to get everything running smoothly.

In addition, they found mountains of gold and silver in the warehouse of Fortress 21.

These supplies are enough to keep the fortress locked down for years.

"I never imagined that a border guard officer could be so rich." Qin Che clicked his tongue in amazement.

In the simulator, he doesn't need to think about anything else.

Just focus on finding what you need.

Killing Huang Shiyao was a conclusion Qin Che reached in a flash of inspiration during the negotiations.

If he is not killed, Fortress 21 will still be autonomous, and Huang Shih-yao will still be the head of state.

He did not want to see this situation.

The First Wall must possess complete control; only by concentrating power can the First Wall more easily exercise its dictatorship and establish its position.

...

Shortly after capturing Fort 21.

Qin Che and Li Xin both suppressed the border garrison here.

The officers who surrendered could not accept Huang Shiyao's death, but they were even more afraid of being crushed like ants by the extraordinary, and they all submitted to Qin Che's oppressive policies.

Until the Northern Expeditionary Army entered the fortress.

Qin Che decided that very day to replace the border guards, disperse them, and assign them to military posts.

Fortress No. 21 was completely taken over by the Northern Expeditionary Army. In just half a month, under Qin Che's leadership, it became the first line of defense against the alien race on the border.

...

Time flies.

Six months later.

The war has been completely over, and the beginning and end of the war and the ruling forces have been properly reorganized.

Thirty-six cities in the north became vassals of Wall One because they were the defeated side. The military abolished their dictatorship, dismissed their high-ranking officials, and replaced them with the cabinet's loyalists.

At the same time,

Li Jiuyuan's diplomatic efforts in the Eastern and Southern Districts have also made good progress.

After learning of the Oasis's defeat

The majesty of Wall No. 1 has reached a new level.

Those independent regimes successively relinquished their power and status.

Because the high-ranking officials in the East and South districts did not participate in the war and were not considered "defeated," they all accepted the appeasement policy of the First Wall and joined the cabinet, taking up their posts in various levels of the Executive Yuan in batches. They had many factions, but in the cabinet's purge and the restructuring of power, they broke the original rules.

At the same time,

Qin Che has brought the renamed 'Northern Expeditionary Army', which has now been reorganized into the 'New Border Defense Army'. Qin Che has taken them to the pit area to fight against the alien species.

Another six months passed.

Qin Che had been living in Fortress 21 and had gained a deep understanding of the alien species.

The alien species in the pit zone are different from those in the western radiation zone.

Most of them are in human form.

They have their own tribal culture.

They could also be called barbarians.

Strictly speaking, their combat power was no less than that of the Claw King, Tyrant, and Fire Owl, among other mutated creatures in the western border region, which is why they were affectionately called 'Northern Barbarians' by the border guards.

Qin Che had led the border troops to the pit-filled battlefield many times to fight against the northern barbarians.

Sometimes, psionic beings are born from them.

Qin Che even defeated their extraordinary elders and hid deep within the tribe, secretly plotting and planning an attack to the south.
