Huang Feilong was a little flattered, not expecting these three people to be so enthusiastic.
There was no sign of rejecting myself at all.
So he quickly shook hands with the three of them and exchanged pleasantries.
Lu Yuan was very satisfied.
"Alright, Zhao Qiang, take Commander Huang to familiarize himself with Taotie City."
"Take him to the military camp to meet them, and announce it while you're at it."
Zhao Qiang quickly agreed and then left with Huang Feilong.
After Zhao Qiang left with Huang Feilong, only Lin Feng, Zhang Qiang, Gong Yuehan, and Lu Yuan remained in the office.
"Just say what you have to say!"
Lu Yuan looked at Lin Feng, who seemed hesitant to speak, and said something.
He asked Zhao Qiang to take Huang Feilong away, mainly because he had something to say to Lin Feng and Zhang Qiang.
As for Zhao Qiang, that guy is heartless and doesn't understand anything.
"Old Lu, is this guy reliable?"
Lu Yuan naturally knew what Lin Feng was worried about, so he explained:
"This person is honest and reliable."
"Besides, all three battalion commanders are our own people, so there's nothing to worry about."
"The reason why he was appointed as the deputy regimental commander is probably clear to you. To put it bluntly, he has experience."
Lin Feng nodded:
"That's true. To be honest, I'm a little unsure of myself if I'm suddenly asked to lead a few hundred men into battle."
"With him here, we have a better chance of winning the battles ahead."
Hearing Lin Feng say this, Lu Yuan felt relieved.
He was genuinely worried that Lin Feng might have some minor complaints, which would make things difficult to get along with in the future.
“You should learn from him, and what you learn will be your own.”
"As long as what he says makes sense, you should all cooperate actively. I believe him, and I believe in you too."
After Lu Yuan gave a few more instructions, Lin Feng left.
Lu Yuan kept Zhang Qiang behind.
"Uncle Qiang, there are bound to be a few troublemakers or Jin Chaoyang's cronies among this group."
"Keep an eye out these next few days. If you spot any suspicious individuals, take them into custody immediately. We absolutely cannot allow any trouble to occur during the fighting."
Zhang Qiang nodded in agreement.
"Alright, go ahead and get busy. While you're at it, call Liu Wuqing over here."
Zhang Qiang and Liu Wuqing came from the same place—Wan Gang Gathering Place!
Not long after Zhang Qiang left, Liu Wuqing arrived.
"Commander, City Lord!"
There's a set order to how Liu Wuqing greets people.
Generally speaking, or in any gathering place, the city lord is the most powerful. If you want to greet someone, you must first address the city lord.
However, it's different in Taotie City.
If Gong Yuehan is the emperor, then Lu Yuan is the retired emperor.
"Please sit down!"
"How heartless! Are those new refugees alright?"
The person Liu Wuqing admires most is Lu Yuan, and the person she fears most is Luo Qingcheng.
I admire Lu Yuan because he was an insignificant person who was able to build such a large force in such a short time.
Moreover, their combat strength is abnormally high.
The reason he was afraid of Luo Qingcheng was mainly because he had been tormented by her that time, leaving him with a lasting trauma.
Of course, the main reason is that Luo Qingcheng is Lu Yuan's woman, and he has no way to take revenge yet.
Faced with Lu Yuan's question, Liu Wuqing naturally dared not hide anything.
"Well, most of them are quite cooperative. As long as they are fed, they generally won't cause trouble."
"After all, this is the apocalypse. Their edges have long been smoothed out. All they need is to fill their stomachs. Even if there are a few troublemakers, they'll behave themselves after a couple of meals of hunger."
"Furthermore, I have already sent people to observe secretly, so there shouldn't be any problems."
Liu Wuqing is Liu Wuqing. What Lu Yuan thought of, he could naturally think of as well, and he could even take precautions in advance.
"Okay, then I'm relieved. There's another important thing I wanted to tell you."
"Kill Su Changchun!"
Upon hearing this, both Liu Wuqing and Gong Yuehan were taken aback.
"Brother Yuan, you mustn't!"
"Su Changchun is no longer a threat; we just need to be cautious."
"If we kill him, it'll be hard to explain to Xiaorou!"
"Even if we don't say anything, everyone will assume that you gave the order, and then..."
Lu Yuan naturally knew this, but if Su Changchun didn't die, hundreds of thousands of people in the Wan Gang settlement would die.
He wanted the entire settlement to die with him—that's over 100,000 people!
In fact, Lu Yuan had his eye on these 100,000-plus laborers.
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
Lu Yuan then presented the difficult problem to Gong Yuehan and Liu Wuqing.
"Brigade Commander, how about this, let Lin Feng and his men take the troops directly to take over the Wan Gang assembly area."
"That way it will be perfectly legitimate."
"If Su Changchun resists, we can just take him into custody. As for the survivors and spirit masters, they probably don't have the guts to rebel."
"In addition, the same method can be used in the Tai'an gathering place."
Lu Yuan stroked his chin, calculating the feasibility and the time remaining.
Lu Yuan now has more than two thousand soldiers, and their positions and ranks are what they are. Apart from the already deceased Jin Chaoyang, I guess no one really has the guts to rebel.
"Five days? Is five days enough?"
Lu Yuan decided to adopt Liu Wuqing's plan.
"If we split up, that should be enough. In that case, the number of Spirit Masters can exceed ten thousand."
"With so many spirit masters guarding the city together, the chances of success are much higher."
"Considering that the gathering place in Wan Gang is quite far away, we can use more trucks to transport people."
Lu Yuan nodded, then left the office, followed by Liu Wuqing and Gong Yuehan.
Lu Yuan went directly to the military camp and found Lin Feng and the others.
He didn't waste any words and went straight to the point:
"I'm giving you a task now. Lin Feng and Uncle Qiang, you two will take a thousand men to the Wan Gang gathering place."
"Commander Huang and Zhao Qiang are leading a thousand men to the assembly point in Tai'an. You can do this!..."
The group began to secretly plot and discuss.
Half an hour later, a convoy of large trucks left the city, but no one knew what they were doing.
Lu Yuan had considered the reasons why he assigned Zhang Qiang and Lin Feng to be in charge of the Wan Gang gathering place.
With Lin Feng around, nothing unexpected will happen; with Zhang Qiang around, we can explain things to Su Xiaorou.
If anything unexpected happens, it won't have anything to do with Lu Yuan, since Zhang Qiang is the one leading the team.
As night fell, the construction of Taotie City continued in full swing.
That said, if there's anyone in Taotie City who's relatively free, it's undoubtedly Su Xiaorou.
She didn't hold any official position, so having nothing else to do, she went to Lu Yuan's office.
"Brother Yuan, it's getting dark, aren't you going home yet?"
When Lu Yuan looked up and saw Su Xiaorou, he quickly waved to her, signaling her to come over.
"Xiaorou, you've come at the right time. There's something I need to tell you."
Su Xiaorou hummed in agreement, came behind Lu Yuan, and began massaging his shoulders.
"I sent Lin Feng and Zhang Qiang with their troops to the Wan Gang assembly area."
Su Xiaorou was taken aback, and her hands stopped moving.
Then he continued to pinch it.
“Xiaorou, as you know, this great battle is imminent, and I can’t bear to see hundreds of thousands of people in Wan Gang die along with your father.”
"So, you're worried about your father because you want to take over the Wan Gang settlement?"
