Chapter 351: Big Work
Lin Wen sat in Yun Zhixing's off-road vehicle, and the strong wind blew the loose hair on his forehead.
Although the road was uneven, Yun Zhixing's driving skills were good and stable, giving him a sense of security that he would not overturn.
It was just right for his thinking.
Changshan County's electricity problem has been resolved.
Although I will have to pay the electricity bill normally in the future and it will not be as comfortable as stealing electricity for free, I will have a sense of security and stability, and it will also save a lot of manpower.
The next step is to comprehensively build the power supply and water supply facilities within Changshan County.
What kind of society is this if basic water and electricity infrastructure isn’t even available?
In addition to this, there is a lot of content, many of which he asked through magic, but the main part was completed by him himself.
Even under the condition of reducing consumption, the consumption in this regard is still very high. It would be better for him to directly transfer the experience of his previous life.
They have all been proven in practice. Each one embodies the wisdom and hard work of countless top figures and has been tested by billions of people. How much is its value?
If he were to use magic to ask, even if he was a true immortal, I'm afraid even that wouldn't be enough.
but.
All the development and reform plans he chose based on his own situation were money-eating monsters.
Its first small step will have to pay the wages of nearly six million people.
As for the subsequent areas of medical care, education, and housing, once they start cutting corners, it will cost tens of billions of dollars, and it will be impossible to handle them.
But if he could really do it well, he had a feeling that his good karma would at least double.
money.
The key is money.
Because of this, he is ready to restart his high-tech industry plan and the Internet money-making industry.
This is the reason why Tenglibaba was specifically asked to create a high-quality and well-reputed stand-alone game to whitewash itself.
But this is not enough. Sheng Huaixuan is right. He also needs an industrial chain that can accommodate a population of nearly 10 million.
Changshan Iron and Steel Plant, Tianjiang Fishery Company, Changshan Food Factory, and the farmlands, logging camps, and hunters in Shangxi Town can only accommodate a million people in total.
Therefore, Lin Wen now needs money, people, and top people, preferably a pair of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick.
Lin Wen was not particularly worried about people. As long as his reputation, which was comparable to Huang Shu's, of being generous, honest, trustworthy, and caring for all living things and not killing people indiscriminately, spread, there would definitely be more people who would come to him on their own initiative.
Money is the biggest problem.
He must first obtain a huge amount of funds to support the establishment of his high-tech industrial chain and Internet empire.
If possible, build an entertainment empire and construct a modern industrial system with all industrial sectors.
Of course, first of all, you need huge amounts of money.
Originally, Lin Wen was a little worried that the money he made from Shizhou would not be enough, but Governor Sheng told him that there were many giant grain storage points like Jiangkou City in Shizhou.
There are one million tons at one point. Shizhou is so big, there must be a hundred points, right?
Wouldn’t that be 100 million tons?
The total value of the spoils from the capture of Jiangkou City exceeded 900 million.
One point is 900 million, so what about 100 points? Wouldn’t that be 90 billion?
If he adds another 100 million tons of food, wouldn't he be able to take off on the spot?
Governor Sheng is indeed a good man. He kindly reminded me that although he did not provide me with 10 billion in aid, and did not even give me 1 billion, I, Lin Wen, am not a person who holds grudges. After I finish copying, I will give him 1,000 kilograms of grain.
Moreover, after copying so many points, I must have offended a lot of people. By then, wouldn’t my chances of reincarnation increase?
Hahahaha!
I am indeed a genius.
After waiting for so long, I finally see the dawn of cultivating immortals.
Lin Wen's blood was boiling and he was so excited that he was about to explode. He wanted to rush to the front line immediately and fight a big battle with Qin Luoshuang.
——
Shizhou.
Governor's Office.
The Governor's office was already crowded with people.
The Changshan County army was like evil spirits, sweeping away everything of value.
In addition to their property, the grain stored in Jiangkou City did not belong to any one person, but was the common property of many people.
There were many people among them whom Gu Xuanli did not want to offend. Changshan County's frantic transportation of grain was too large to be concealed.
When these powerful people saw them working like ants moving a mountain, it was as if their hearts were being hollowed out bit by bit.
They protested frantically to Changshan County, but Changshan County's irritating "Hello, it's a pleasure to serve you." and even more irritating "If you are very satisfied, please press 1."
It is simply an insult to their noble status.
However, apart from the official phone number of Changshan County, no one knew the private phone number of the county chief, and it was impossible to find someone to use their connections to pass on the message.
Changshan County is like a meteorite floating in the sky, not within the complex and cumbersome network of relationships in the empire.
Someone tried to find Sheng Huaixuan, but Sheng Huaixuan replied coldly that Changshan County had long been separated from Dongqin Prefecture and was no longer his subordinate.
Someone tried to find Changsheng in Yaojing, but Changduchang replied that due to the imperial ban, he had not had any business dealings with Changshan County for a long time.
Looking further up, they were shocked to find that it seemed that only the emperor of the empire had some connection with Changshan County.
But regardless of whether the rumors are reliable or not, this is the nominal head of the empire after all, and he has been extremely powerful recently. They would not bother to cause trouble over such a small matter.
Moreover, the highest level will strictly prohibit hoarding, isn't this walking into the trap?
Since Changshan County couldn't handle it, they had no choice but to come to Gu Xuanli.
Gu Xuanli's current power is all deeply rooted in the empire's network of relationships. Otherwise, with what he did, his body would have dried up on the gallows eight hundred years ago.
He couldn't afford to offend so many powerful people, so he could only let the guards take the blame for him.
The guards simply did not dare to touch these wealthy and powerful people with luxurious clothes and big bellies, so they could only allow themselves to be pushed, insulted and beaten by them.
The governor hid in his office and called Gu Dacheng who was fighting on the front line.
Gu Dacheng had just fought a fierce battle and his troops suffered heavy losses. He really didn't expect that it was just a siege, but he would be ambushed more than a dozen times in a row. The enemies were either hiding in houses or in sewers, taking advantage of the situation and running away. He was very annoyed.
What's worse is that the inner city walls of Jiangkou City are very strong.
This was originally built to show how tall and strong the masters were.
Unexpectedly, it has now become the biggest barrier hindering their attack. Even tank guns cannot penetrate the thick bluestone city wall.
The soldiers were trapped in the outer city and had to fight tunnel and mine warfare every day, causing heavy casualties.
The key is that the mentality exploded.
Soldiers often accidentally step on landmines while walking, and many times there are landmines that were not there yesterday but suddenly appear today.
No matter how strictly they guarded against it, after a night, there would always be a lot of mines in all kinds of unexpected places the next day.
This kind of thing has dealt a heavy blow to morale. Soldiers now walk on tiptoe like crazy thieves, always startled.
Not only that, a bunch of enemies would often jump out of the sewers out of nowhere and instantly wipe out a team that had retreated to rest.
Then they rushed back into the sewer, leaving the reinforcements staring blankly.
If you go into the sewers to chase, there is a 99% chance that you will never come back.
It was useless to blow up the sewers, as the enemy could always dig them through quickly, and the attacks would soon resume.
We don't really need to blow up the entire city's sewers, do we? We don't have enough explosives.
Gu Dacheng finally came up with a solution and sealed all the sewer covers with cement.
But before I could have a moment of peace, the toilet started exploding again.
There were dozens of toilet explosions every day throughout the city, and the soldiers were afraid to even take a shit in the city.
What's worse is that they don't leave through the sewer covers, but instead pop up everywhere in the city.
In the past, staying away from sewer covers could keep you safe, but now it’s useless.
Suddenly, a large piece of the good ground fell off with a loud crash, and then a group of people jumped out angrily, killed them, and then jumped back.
This is a nightmare.
The soldiers were all troubled, exhausted and their morale was low. When Gu Dacheng was about to retreat and rest, he received a stern call from the governor, urging him to attack the city immediately.
"Governor Gu, we are in dire need of rest now..."
Gu Dacheng tried to explain, but Gu Xuanli did not leave him any room.
"I don't care, you have to fight! You have to win at all costs!"
The Governor was very tough and no matter how he explained, it was useless. In the end, he even threatened to fire me if I didn't fight.
In desperation, Gu Dacheng was forced to gather his troops and attack the city again.
——
Lin Wen stood on the broad bluestone city wall and was about to use [Immortal Guidance] again to inquire about the tactics of the infantry when he saw the dispirited soldiers gathered in the streets and alleys of the lower city.
Fang Dashan and Wang Zhengwu, who were standing by, suddenly smiled happily and asked hurriedly, "Chief Lin, what should we do next?"
Lin Wen took a look at his remaining soul and decided not to use [Immortal Guidance].
This is the spell he has used most since he went to the front line.
Backed by a large amount of detailed intelligence, its consumption is very low. It only further finds weak points suitable for attack, which is equivalent to taking the intelligence one level deeper.
After obtaining the answer, the commandos will attack at the right place, at the right time, in the right way, and then evacuate in the right way.
It fully embodies the sixteen principles of retreating when the enemy advances, harassing when the enemy stays, attacking when the enemy is tired, and pursuing when the enemy retreats.
The Changshan County army's well-trained tunnel warfare, mine warfare, and mobile warfare were fully utilized.
This was the most exhilarating battle Fang Dashan and Wang Zhengwu had ever fought. They came and went like the wind, advancing and retreating freely, making the main force of Shizhou, which was much stronger than them, exhausted and in a mess.
Jiangkou City’s well-developed sewer system has become their main battlefield.
Raids, reconnaissance, harassment, retreat, laying mines in the dead of night, every operation is done with ease.
Even if the passage is blown down and the exit is blocked, Lin Wen will use [Turn Fossil into Soil] and [Turn Soil into Mud] to clear the pipe, or build a side branch, or dig up the ground.
Of course, you have to be careful when digging the ground. Many times, Lin Wen only digs out half and leaves the other half.
When a surprise attack was needed, they would use an engineer shovel to dig the ground and the entire ground would fall off.
Just like that, in less than a week, Gu Dacheng's army was completely defeated.
Changshan County suffered very little loss, and almost all of it came from the siege.
This time, Lin Wen did not plan to use any magic, but to keep some of his spirit as a backup.
Moreover, the scene before him did not require any magic.
So, he said, "Over the past few days, you've witnessed my extraordinary strategies, which are comparable to Zhu Geliang's. You should have learned something from them. Now, it's time to test the results of your learning."
Fang Dashan and Wang Zhengwu were both extremely happy, as they had been itching to do it for a long time.
The staff officers were racking their brains, eager to show off, but only Qin Luoshuang particularly wanted to beat him.
This guy never speaks properly.
But she still patiently arranged the battle plan with the commander and staff.
In fact, it is very simple. It is nothing more than a re-enactment of the previous battle, defending in the front and launching a surprise attack in the back.
But unexpectedly, the effect this time was surprisingly good.
The enemy army was thrown into chaos under their double-sided attack. Wang Zhengwu realized that the enemy's defense was full of loopholes and the attack was extremely weak, so he decisively led an elite commando team to attack from behind and directly penetrated.
Qin Luoshuang reacted quickly and immediately ordered He Shangsheng to open the city gates and lead the army to attack.
Wang Zhengwu, with a big knife in one hand and a short gun in the other, killed people in the alley until blood flowed like a river.
He Shangsheng also charged forward with a black knife and two guns.
Both of them were top-notch masters who had experienced many battles. With a squeeze from the front and back, Gu Dacheng's army was immediately defeated.
Fang Dashan and Yan Xi then led the army forward. The Gu Dacheng army was beaten and fled in panic. They suffered heavy losses and were unable to resist and could only flee in panic.
Qin Luoshuang was very happy. After this great victory, it would be difficult for Shizhou to launch another attack on them in a short period of time.
They had plenty of time to move everything and evacuate by boat.
After the negotiations are completed, the secret war will be over, and Changshan County will usher in a long period of stable development.
After this battle, Changshan County will become a force in the empire that no one dares to ignore. They will be qualified to sit at the table of interest distribution and to form an alliance to get a piece of the cake.
If anyone wants to touch them again, they will have to consider the consequences.
Once that situation comes, Qin Luoshuang is very confident that with her understanding of the imperial power and her top level of alliances, Changshan County will definitely be able to firmly occupy a place, and Lin Wen's ridiculous idea of sacrifice will never happen.
Changshan County can truly become the country they once dreamed of.
All the blood, hatred, grudges, and twisted ugliness will be far away from them, just like the Taoye Village of Yuyao River where they once lived in seclusion.
Qin Luoshuang, full of hope for a better future, found Lin Wen, but before she could open her mouth, she heard Lin Wen say loudly:
"You've arrived just in time! Quickly give the order and march the entire army to attack Pingpan Castle!"
