Please Do Not Disturb My Cultivation

Chang Dafen, the boss of Nanyang, is not an ordinary person. He is a distant relative of Gu Xuanli, governor of Shizhou.

One-third of the entire Jiangkou City is his property.

He is different from those businessmen in the outside world. He firmly believes that the house is his own property and a steady stream of cash cows. Those who sell the house are idiots, and keeping the house for rent is king.

One-third of the people in Jiangkou City pay rent to him, and he just needs to lie on the big bed every day, and the wealth that the poor can't save in 10,000 lifetimes will fall from the sky.

But this kind of enjoyment ended today. Soldiers like wolves broke into his territory violently, knocked down his guards, and dragged him out of the luxurious big bed.

He didn't even wear a piece of clothing, and was escorted to the front line with his bare buttocks. No matter how much he howled, no matter how much he raged, no matter how much power he claimed, it didn't matter.

It wasn't until he saw his relatives' direct troops and confidant generals on the front line that he remembered that someone seemed to have sent him a telegram in the morning saying that "Miserable Mountain Town" was coming to attack Jiangkou City, and he was asked to "move" for a while, and they would soon lead an army to destroy it.

Chang Dafen's brain, which has been soaked in alcohol, drugs and hormones for a long time, didn't care about their words at all——

Anyway, there is an army coming to suppress the bandits, so what is he worried about?

Better to care about having some fun today.

He didn't wake up until he was dragged out by the bandits and the cold wind blew in the night.

It must be that these wastes failed to suppress the bandits, and let the bandits escape and rush into the city, which caused him to suffer such a catastrophe.

Fortunately, the bandits seemed to be afraid of his identity and let him go before the battle.

The Shizhou army took him back.

Chang Dafen, who was insulted by this, was furious, and immediately went to the generals of the army and denounced them for their incompetence.

Lu Yuerong and others who were discussing the siege were helpless.

But the governor's relatives were dragged out naked, their faces were red and their noses were blue from the cold, and they really couldn't explain it, so they had to try their best to explain.

Chang Dafen refused to accept this, and shouted angrily: "Attack! Attack me immediately! Get rid of those daring gangsters! Don't let them ruin my valuables."

Lu Yuerong's head was huge, but it's not over yet.

Soon, the Shizhou army ushered in another ancestor, Kong Gousi, the governor of Guangxing.

This ancestor is even more difficult to serve. He is not only the younger brother of the chief inspector of the empire, but also one of the governor's patrons.

Lu Yuerong and other generals were very depressed. They had clearly sent a telegram beforehand, but these people ignored their warning.

And Changshan County's march was too fast, and Jiangkou City surrendered without even resisting.

This has resulted in today's passive situation.

Madman Qiao said in a low voice: "At this point, we can only suppress the bandits as soon as possible, and there is nothing we can do if we lose more."

Lu Yuerong nodded, and as soon as he ordered the tank troops to advance and fired the first shot, the two ancestors shouted together.

"what are you doing??"

Lu Yuerong said respectfully: "We first use artillery to wash the ground, break up the enemy's positions, shock the enemy's momentum, and then attack the enemy's positions."

Chang Dafen said angrily: "My house was destroyed by you, will you pay for it?"

Kong Gousi: "If my debtors are killed by you, you will pay their debts!"

Lu Yuerong sneered and said: "This is not allowed, and that is not allowed. How do we fight this battle?"

Chang Dafen: "I don't care how you fight, if you don't wipe out these bandits, I will settle accounts with you."

Seeing that Madman Qiao was about to get into trouble, he hurried over to smooth things over:

"Everyone, everyone, we have no choice but to go into the city in the dark to fight in the streets, which is quite detrimental to our army."

Kong Gousi sneered and said: "The famous Shizhou Iron and Steel Army can't even wipe out a group of bandits? It seems that there is a lot of water in Governor Gu's words. I will tell my brother in a while and ask him to re-evaluate Shizhou's capabilities."

Chang Dafen said: "Letting the bandits enter the city is your biggest dereliction of duty! You don't try your best to make up for your mistakes, but you still talk about conditions? Do you want to do it?"

When the matter got to such an extent, the generals really had no choice but to call the Governor and let the Governor make a decision.

The secretary answered the call, and hung up after listening.

A moment later, a governor's warrant was issued to them, telling them: "Waiting for opportunities."

Lu Yuerong's face was livid, saying that he was "waiting for opportunities", but in fact he was letting them take the initiative to take the blame.

Madman Qiao whispered, "Yuerong, let's fight."

"Why? Going in like this will cause a lot of casualties to the brothers."

"Even if we lose, we still have excuses. The governor won't blame us. If we don't fight, or don't fight as they say, all the troubles afterwards will be ours."

After weighing for a while, Lu Yuerong could only grit his teeth and order: "Attack!"

——

This battle was not only unfavorable, it was a disastrous defeat.

The buildings in the slums are densely packed, the alleys are narrow, and the light of tracer bullets cannot penetrate them. There are shadows and attacks from the shadows everywhere, and landmines are planted on a few wide avenues.

The landmines were laid skillfully and dangerously, and they were layered. The rows were not clean, and they were blown up in the past.

Walking in the alleys was even worse, and street fighting and building battles after dark were suicidal for them.

And according to the front-line report, there is also a super individual combat unit inside, and whenever he appears, it is the moment of nightmares.

Often in just a split second, with countless flashes of flashes, the soldiers were thrown to the ground one after another.

About one-seventh of the people died in each attack, and the rest were pierced by steel needles in their hands and feet and lost their fighting ability.

Because of this, his prestige spread across the battlefield extremely quickly. According to the soldiers, this man was as fast as lightning, sensitive in action, and predictable like a god.

He runs and jumps between buildings, and the steel needles on his body seem to have autonomous consciousness. They will automatically find the enemy and attack, and will fly back to his body after the attack is over.

Many soldiers witnessed with their own eyes that countless steel needles were floating around him, moving with him, just like the "floating cannon" in science fiction movies, but the degree of fantasy is a little lower and more scientific.

The soldiers quickly gave him the title "The Monster Manipulating the Steel Needle". As he became more active on the battlefield, he became the more respectful "King of the Needle".

Later, after many rumors and mutations, he was simply called the "Needle King" by the soldiers.

But as the war progressed, the "Needle King" was no longer a symbol of death, but a hope for soldiers to survive.

Because of the "Needle King", except for a few unlucky ghosts, most people can withdraw from the battlefield with legitimate reasons.

Although it hurts to have your hands and feet pierced, it is better than being beaten to death in a street fight, or accidentally stepping on a landmine and being blown to death.

As time went by, more and more remnants were defeated. When the attack reached the sixth hour, Lu Yuerong stopped the attack decisively. No matter how Chang Dafen and Kong Gousi urged him, it was useless.

The morale of the troops has been infinitely close to zero. At this time, if they are forced to attack, not only will it be useless, but it may even lead to more embarrassing consequences.

The inventory of the battlefield was quickly completed. In just six hours, they had suffered more than 30,000 casualties, while the enemy's losses were minimal.

Chang Dafen and Kong Gousi were still yelling at the side, asking why he stopped beating so few people after he died.

Lu Yuerong couldn't resist punching the two fat men in the face, knocking them to the ground.

This time it was a big mess.

Chang Dafen cried and made noises, forcing the governor Gaotang out, Kong Gousi angrily called his brother, the chief inspector of the empire was the core figure in the camp of Zhang Chang, and Chang Chang was the direct backer of Governor Gu.

All of a sudden, the Governor's Mansion of Shizhou was in a commotion. When all parties were entangled, the troops of Changshan County came out of the city.

Lu Yuerong sighed and could only order the troops to retreat.

Due to the low morale, the retreat directly turned into a rout. The Changshan County army chased for more than ten kilometers before withdrawing, and gained countless gains along the way.

The news that the Shizhou Steel Army was defeated by the Changshan County miscellaneous army head-on, and the news spread quickly that they chased tens of kilometers along the way.

——

cloud state.

Flower and Bird Garden.

Governor Zhao Chaoyang of Yunzhou found his friends Li Changsheng and Xu Chengfeng excitedly, and told them the news that Changshan County counterattacked into Shizhou and defeated the main force of Shizhou.

The three of them were all elated, brought out the wine and toasted together.

"For the light of the empire."

Drank it all down, raised the glass for the second time.

"For the light of hope."

Third toast.

"A light for mankind."

After drinking three cups, everyone was slightly tipsy.

Since investing in Lin Wen and Changshan County, they have been paying special attention to the news of Changshan County all the time, and deliberately collected everything about it.

They didn't believe the reports from the outside world, especially the newspapers or media controlled by the council. In it, the perpetrator Lin Sheriff wanted to eat a hundred people raw every day.

Changshan County is now due to the soaring population and the large number of merchants and businesses entering and leaving, and some controls have been relaxed.

As long as you don't sabotage or spy on confidential information, you can basically come and go freely.

Therefore, they also got a lot of first-hand information from Changshan County, and knew many policies and behaviors of Changshan County.

It wasn't until they got close to Changshan County that they realized how wrong they had been before, and how far their stereotype of Lin Wen had deviated from reality.

He was not at all a conscientious imperial bureaucrat.

He is light.

No one spends all the money on the construction of Changshan County and the welfare of the common people like him. All the cash cows in Changshan County are related to him, but he has not taken a cent of all the money, and even lives in a shabby house full of holes.

No one is like him, who disregards the future and fate and offends people everywhere, but he doesn't get any benefits.

All the rumors about him being shameless and lustful are false.

His so-called Harem Group of 5,000 young girls is actually a department called the "Women's Mutual Aid Association". Its duties are to mediate neighborhood disputes, send warmth to difficult families, and handle some public affairs similar to street sweeping.

This is the first time they have seen such a humane department.

And in Changshan County, the most indispensable thing is a little girl who has infinite admiration for this young, handsome, mysterious Sheriff Lin.

According to their investigation, none of them had a deep relationship with Sheriff Lin, and some of them claimed to have a relationship. After detailed questioning, their answers were full of mistakes and contradictions.

The only person who might have something to do with it was the secretary Fang Weiwei, but she herself vehemently denied it, and even went to the hospital to testify to support her statement.

On the whole, Sheriff Lin, who was attacked and corrupted in personal morality, is actually a clean-spirited person, just like the "Puritans" who were popular in the empire for a while.

I don't know if Sheriff Lin is a "Puritan" or not, but there is definitely no problem with his personal morality, and he is even too strict.

His salary is one yuan, and his food and clothing are worse than that of an ordinary worker, and there is no evidence that he has saved a huge sum of money.

Maybe there are hidden deposits, but they don't believe it.

The officialdom in Changshan County has been cleaned from top to bottom, and a large number of newcomers with no background are employed, and they are not excluded or suppressed.

Young people even account for a large proportion of the senior management in Changshan County.

This is unique in the empire, the first mover will always firmly occupy the high position, and deliberately suppress the newcomers.

In Changshan County, not only the sheriff is young, but there are many young people among the deputy sheriff and the heads of various departments, and many of them hold multiple positions.

It is also the most different in Changshan County.

They found that Lin Wen had almost completely delegated the power of the county chief. He did not have personnel, administrative, and financial powers in his hands. He even handed over the management of departments such as secret guards to outsiders.

He never seems to worry about his authority being challenged, never has that miser-like "power syndrome", and even has the illusion that he can't wait to throw out the power that is hot.

This kind of mind, this kind of courage, this kind of character, the three of them have been officials in the empire for many years, are all seen in their lives.

If this cannot be called light, then there is no light in this world.

Therefore, the three were so excited to hear that he had won in Shizhou.

"I said Old Xu, how should we secretly add fire?"

The last time Xu Chengfeng planned to implement the plan of "delivering 8 billion worth of pure water to Changshan County", it was a pity that it was stopped after only sending 200 to 300 million yuan, but this matter was procedurally reasonable.

In order not to lose sight of the population, the headquarters decided to convert the 8 billion refugee subsidy that Changshan County deserved into a new water plant.

Although the water plant is only 200-300 million yuan, it can be regarded as a little benefit for Changshan County.

So the two decided to ask Xu Chengfeng first.

After thinking for a while, Xu Chengfeng replied: "I seem to have heard that Changshan County is buying cargo ships everywhere, and we can sell them a batch of cargo ships."

Li Changsheng said: "They captured Jiangkou City. I guess they may be retreating by boat and returning to Changshan County by water."

Zhao Chaoyang smiled and said, "Isn't that good? I can directly drive the cargo ship from Yunzhou Port to Jiangkou Port, which only takes an hour. I can even rent a port for them."

Li Changsheng was a little worried: "Does this affect you?"

Zhao Chaoyang asked in surprise, "What does business matter have to do with me? Who stipulated that Changshan County is not allowed to lease my port?"

The three laughed together.

They've never laughed so hard.

——

East Qinzhou.

Governor's Palace.

Sheng Huaixuan slammed the table.

"good."

A rare joy appeared on his face, and Cheng Hexin, the first secretary, could see it clearly.

Since the separation of Changshan County, Governor Sheng has never smiled like this again.

"Immediately send someone to tell Mr. Shouren, let him contact Xu Jieying, let the rebel army respond to the attack of Changshan County from the side, and put pressure on Shizhou."

"Part of the drug smuggling chain in Shizhou passes through us. Immediately, the whole state will fight to clean up the drug traffickers' activities and interrupt this smuggling chain."

"Also, implement quarantine on the grain imported from Shizhou, and publicize the issue of food safety again."

——

Emperor Tower.

After reading the briefing, Li Longxing was overjoyed.

"This kid is not bad."

He looks up.

"Three lovers, what do you think?"

The three commanders of the Royal Guard looked at each other.

One said with a crooked mouth: "It's barely okay, I can wipe out this group of hillbillies in Shizhou with only one tank division."

A horse face said: "Although there are many standing troops in Shizhou, their combat capabilities are extremely low. It is not surprising that this young county chief can win."

A snub-nosed one said, "I can wipe out these three hundred thousand people with just one finger."

Li Longxing snorted.

"It seems that you are not ready to fight against the Papal State. Go to the Royal Fencing Field to fencing with me. I want to discipline you."

——

Taiming Palace.

Li Linyue looked at the briefing on the table and fell into deep thought.

——

Zhongzhou.

Wang Bo'an's hearty laughter resounded inside and outside the Governor's Mansion, dispelling the gloom that had enveloped the mansion during this period of time like strong sunlight.

"Okay, that's great. He is indeed the boy I fancy."

The generals are also smiling.

"It was so beautiful."

"It's really refreshing to breathe out!"

At the most difficult time in Zhongzhou, Wang Boan asked for help everywhere and begged neighboring states to take in refugees. At that time, even the governor who had a quarrel with Wang Boan also extended a helping hand, but the governor of Shizhou was the only one who made trouble and ridiculed him.

They keep this account in mind.

Commander Wang Guangrong said loudly: "This son of a bitch deserves what he deserves, Brother Lin is a good guy!"

Wang Bo'an said loudly: "Everyone, work hard, and this week we will take down the last stronghold of the Pope's beast! Then I will go to Beijing in person to report on the results and support Brother Lin!"

"Okay!" The generals' blood boiled with enthusiasm. After such a long period of hard work, the strongholds of the Papal Kingdom have been eliminated one after another.

This mainly depends on the war mobilization mechanism. Wang Boan's army has now expanded four times, and the enemy has not been replenished, and its strength has dropped to 100,000.

Coupled with the artillery shells purchased from Changshan County, they regained four cities within a week.

Now there is only the last one left. As long as this place is wiped out, the advance troops of the Papal State will be wiped out.

At that time, he can report his military exploits. At this time, the empire will not be stingy in rewarding the victors.

And Wang Boan has already planned, he will list Brother Lin as the first contribution.

——

Empire Gaming Company.

The general office was full of mourners, and screams were everywhere.

All the predictions for Changshan County have all exploded.

But those ordinary handicap losses were not big, and they even made a little profit.

However, there is a fatal handicap, which is like a sharp sword across everyone's necks.

Jangsan-Seokju, odds, 16500 to 1.

Shizhou Fang, the number of bettors is zero, and the bet amount is zero.

Changshan County Fang, the number of bettors is one, the bet amount...

100 million!

In other words, if Changshan County wins, the dealer will pay 1.65 billion.

Even if we dismantle the entire company and sell them all, we still can't afford it.

what to do?

The chief trader wailed: "Is this the odds adjusted by that mentally retarded bastard? Is such a stupid data adjusted by that idiot?"

The secretary whispered: "You were drunk at the time..."

The chief trader slammed the table and shouted, "It's a system failure! This odds is due to a system failure!"

The chief helmsman's eyes lit up: "What is the process of handling system failures?"

"The plate is invalid! The funds will be returned in the same way."

"But..." The chief trader hesitated and said, "We have already used the money from Changshan County..."

The chief helmsman stroked his shiny bald head.

"Hmm... Changshan County bought his own bets. He is suspected of cheating, and the cheating funds will be confiscated!"

The secretary asked softly, "Is this okay?"

The chief helmsman laughed, proud of his cleverness:

"It's just a county, what's the big deal, how dare he go against the sky?"

Everyone laughed, and there was a sea of ​​joy in the main office.

——

To the Winter Palace.

The atmosphere in the conference room was tense.

Yu Zhongxian, the supreme judge, had a gloomy face, and no one dared to speak.

The current life of the council is extremely difficult. They have been targeted by the emperor in the imperial capital, and the princess faction quickly broke away from them.

To make matters worse, their struggle with the Qin Group in Luozhou has fallen into an absolutely unfavorable state.

The Qin Group used a large number of drone clusters for reconnaissance, and launched precision guided missiles to the barren hills in the name of experimental technology, but in fact they were all secret bases or biochemical research institutes of the council.

Using the powerful firepower of air and land and the automatic fire control system against the giant battle team, in just half a month, the council suffered heavy losses. The base camp in Luozhou was almost uprooted, and even one of the giant's production bases was destroyed.

The situation is extremely bad. If the council's influence in Luozhou is uprooted, half of their grand plan to go south will die.

While everyone was discussing, a briefing from Changshan County Shengli came over.

Yu Zhongxian circulated it to everyone after reading it.

"What do you think?"

The chairman of the council, Liu Aimin, bowed and said, "Changshan County won by surprise. They actually defeated the first iron and steel army, the main force in Shizhou, and occupied Jiangkou City. This proves that they really have certain strength."

The new "right hand" Wang Xinwei said: "Our giant squad only killed less than a thousand people in Changshan County and was wiped out. It hardly caused any impact, which proves that they are stable and orderly."

"Then..." Yu Zhongxian glanced at them, and Liu Aimin immediately said, "There is value in cooperation."

Wang Xinwei asked softly: "But we have been hostile to Changshan County for so long, and we have tried to put them to death several times. Is there still room for cooperation?"

Yu Zhongxian showed an icy smile.

"There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. He will agree."

"He has to agree."

——

Elder's compound.

Under the plane tree.

The two Great Elders sat facing each other and played chess, and the two Great Elders watched the chess from the sidelines.

The fighting on the chessboard was fierce, and their respective pieces were intertwined and chaotic.

In the complicated situation, a great elder moved the pawn one step forward.

"Will!"

Wrinkles bloomed layer upon layer on his old face.

"I won."
