Chapter 203 The Wind Rises
Southwest District.
Supreme Command Headquarters.
The entire conference room was filled with people. Those on the left wearing military uniforms were all Qin Gang's subordinates, while those on the right were members of the Qin family and affiliated forces, including three governors and five ministers of the headquarters.
Qin Gang sat in the middle.
An intelligence officer in military uniform is reporting below.
"We lost 211 soldiers, 17 armored vehicles, 30 off-road vehicles, and a large amount of guns and ammunition, with a total loss of more than 50 million yuan."
"Naju and the Council insisted that we were the first to attack and demanded that we compensate them for all their losses and pay over 500 million in gold."
Bang!
Xuzhou Governor Xu Zongheng slammed the table and shouted angrily, "Bullshit! Damn old dog Yu is too arrogant. I can't stand it. Commander-in-Chief! Damn him!"
A military commander said, "Governor Xu, don't get excited. Let him continue."
The intelligence officer continued, "Later, both sides searched the area and dug ten meters below the explosion site, but found no clues."
Another commander said with a stern expression, "So, a super special combat physique capable of wielding a metal box weighing over ten tons with one hand just vanished right before our eyes, along with the gold?"
The intelligence officer hesitated and said, "Based on the current intelligence, yes."
"Bullshit! This must be Yu Zhongxian's doing. He's the only one in the empire who's most enthusiastic about biochemical transformation and the super-special combat body project."
"But Yu Zhongxian thinks we're the ones behind this. He thinks we opened fire to create smoke and let that super combat entity escape, and that we're in cahoots with him!"
"Bullshit, bullshit! Bullshit his whole family! This is the thief crying 'stop thief'!"
At this time, the deputy commander of the Southwest Region suddenly stood up.
"I think it's time to settle the accounts between us and Yu Zhongxian."
"He has consistently pursued the sinister line of human modification and the creation of biological and chemical weapons, frequently attacking our weapons deployment plans and research efforts. He considers us an unnecessary waste of the Empire's economy and has repeatedly proposed cutting our military spending."
He took a deep breath and shouted:
"This is intolerable! What is intolerable!"
The venue suddenly became lively, and many people echoed loudly.
"right!"
"That old dog is so arrogant!"
"He should have been taught a lesson long ago!"
"He and his perverted plan should be put in the crematorium!"
But the most important person here did not say anything.
After a while, the venue fell silent and everyone looked towards Qin Gang who was sitting at the top.
His stern expression remained unchanged from beginning to end. After a moment, he spoke.
"Chief of Staff, devise a plan to strike back at Naju and the Council, but don't go too far. The Supreme Elders are watching."
"yes."
"An unknown force in the Empire already possesses a fourth-level biochemical special combat unit. Biochemical special combat units can be mass-produced. We need to make targeted changes to our combat and defensive measures and add contingency plans to deal with super-individuals."
"yes."
"Also, make this news public."
The Chief of Staff hesitated for a moment, but finally replied, "Yes, Commander!"
Qin Gang stopped talking and stood up to leave.
The chief of staff stood at attention and saluted, and everyone in the room stood up and saluted.
As soon as Qin Gang stepped out of the door, a fierce quarrel broke out in the conference hall. He ignored the noise behind him and returned to the supreme commander's exclusive office.
He was concentrating on processing documents until an intelligence officer presented him with a stack of secret reports.
"Changshan County secretly contacted a large number of gold buyers."
Qin Gang stared at the line of words for a long time, and then he suddenly smiled.
"As expected of my daughter, Qin Gang."
"Does this mean you're rejecting my proposal and declaring war on me?"
He grabbed the note, crumpled it up, and raised his voice.
"Telegram to Longzhou Governor Gu Zhengyi and have him issue an order in the name of the Gold Association's president: prohibit any gold merchants from purchasing stolen goods from Changshan County."
"Tell him that the lamia he liked last time should be delivered to him within ten days."
A personal guard bowed and accepted the order.
Qin Gang stood in the office, his face expressionless.
"It seems you haven't learned your lesson yet."
"The Sky Song of the past shattered with a single touch from me. How long can Changshan County hold out today?"
He threw the scraps of paper out of the window and looked out at the mountains in the east hidden in the clouds.
Behind the mountains is Changshan County.
Pieces of paper fell down in a flurry.
On the training ground below, the younger generations of the family who were undergoing military training saw the family god standing in front of the window. They saluted excitedly and trained even harder.
No one could hear Qin Gang's mumbling.
"I will teach you a lesson you will never forget, and make you completely forget your childish ideals."
——
Shenjing.
To the Winter Palace.
The meeting entered the final voting stage.
Six of the eight Supreme Council presidents raised their hands.
"guilty!"
An old council chairman's face darkened.
Three indifferent council guards rushed forward and pulled him down from the high chair of the Supreme Council President.
He stumbled out while being held hostage by the guards.
Yu Zhongxian sat high on a chair, enjoying the awe-inspiring gazes from all around him.
He finally got rid of the biggest stumbling block to controlling the Council. Once the old Chairman died, the last one left would be alone and would be eliminated by him soon.
Oh!
Yu Zhongxian sneered.
Soon, he will go from being the chief councilor in the shadows to the chief councilor in the open.
As long as he completely controls the powerful weapon of the Council, his New God plan can move forward to the next step.
At this moment, several bodyguards quickly came up and whispered something in Yu Zhongxian's ear.
Yu Zhongxian's face suddenly turned gloomy. He immediately ended the meeting, stood up and went to his exclusive conference room to hold a meeting with his confidants.
"Qin Gang refused to admit to having taken the gold mine for himself. His troops clashed with the Gray Cult, resulting in the loss of over 1,000 men."
"The Qin Group has gone too far!"
"Who does he think he is?"
"Dig up dirt on him!"
"Kill him!"
Yu Zhongxian suppressed the noise.
He carefully read the detailed report of everything that happened and felt a strange sense of familiarity.
He pondered for a moment, then asked, "During the Battle of Qingcheng, was there also a suspected Li Man-class super special combat unit?"
"Left Hand" He Chenggong said: "That's just speculation. It's more likely that it's Qin Gang's new weapon."
Yu Zhongxian then asked, "Are there still some unanswered questions about the Guantanamo prison riot?"
He Chenggong said: "That was all the work of the Princess Clan. We have already proven that the missing First Warden Cheng Butang was their accomplice!"
Yu Zhongxian still felt something was wrong. He glanced at Chang Hai, who was huddled in the corner like a frightened dove.
Yu Zhongxian snorted coldly. The Changshan County inventory plan he was responsible for was useless. Instead, it proved that the output value of Changshan County was indeed very high and its development was indeed very fast.
Having made such a big mistake, he should have been drowned in the lake long ago, but the large-scale investigation unexpectedly discovered the weaknesses of Changshan County, which provided ammunition for their subsequent attack, so they temporarily let him go.
However, Changshan County is just a minor issue and is not worth paying attention to at all. Just give someone to deal with it.
The important thing is the Qin Group.
Yu Zhongxian thought for a moment and said slowly, "Reconcile with the princess faction and tell them that military power is the cornerstone of everything. If necessary, the Council can also serve the First Princess."
"Deal with Qin Gang first!"
"The digging for dirt on him started with the fact that he concealed the uranium purification."
——
the next day.
Lin Wen woke up from the morning light, and the first thing that came into his mind was a series of good connections.
Live and work in peace and contentment +311
Prosperity +23
Fairness and People's Heart +18
Freedom +17
Happiness +8
Free people +1
Technological civilization +1
Lin Wen was dazzled by the string of golden words, and it took him a long time to react.
There are more names for daily good fortune in Changshan County!
There used to be only one person living and working in peace and contentment.
Now there are also prosperous and developed and so on.
Lin Wen's heart began to beat violently.
Doesn’t that mean that my good karma will skyrocket again?
But Lin Wen quickly calmed down. When facing matters related to his cultivation, he was always very calm and wise.
Why is there so much content suddenly?
In the past, there was only one person who lived and worked in peace and contentment as the daily good karma of Changshan County.
Judging from the description, this seems to be a progressive relationship. Only after living and working in peace and contentment can one prosper.
Only after material needs are met do spiritual needs arise, and so on.
But the question is, why didn’t it happen before?
Lin Wen thought for a moment.
Perhaps he did something special yesterday that triggered some conditions, which led to the appearance of these new entries.
Lin Wen carefully recalled yesterday's itinerary.
He first went to Lao Xie to inquire about the financial situation, and later went to Zhao Minggong to inquire about the latest progress of the project.
Then he returned home to think about his future plans, studied some magical powers and spells, and then went to bed.
It doesn't seem to be anything special.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a noise outside the house.
I got out of bed and opened the door, and saw a large number of workers coming from Qingze Township and returning to the construction site to work.
They were in high spirits, chatting and laughing, as if they had encountered countless good things.
One of them said something that gained their approval, and they nodded in unison.
Suddenly, they all shouted, "Changshan County Yongsheng!"
"Lin County Magistrate Yongan!"
Lin Wen suddenly woke up. He remembered that he had asked Lao Xie to arrange for nearly 500,000 workers to become regular employees and include them in the welfare protection scope of formal employees.
I see!
The workers' wages have been improved.
Only when the common people live a prosperous life can there be prosperity.
Only with prosperity can everything else come to pass.
So, that is to say.
Changshan County may provide me with much more good fortune than this.
Lin Wen's whole body was on fire.
Is there such a good thing?
The opportunity is right in front of me, who am I to waste even a second?
The following items may be slightly different from the following text, but the meaning is still the same.
