Chapter 506: [505] The Inspector General is determined, no one can stop him.

Inside the central meeting hall.

Under the gaze of a group of people.

Cheng Han suddenly sighed and asked a question, "Deputy General Gu, have you recently visited the various fortresses?"

Although his voice was soft, it clearly reached everyone's ears without any echo.

Gu Mingxun hesitated for a moment and vaguely replied, "I have too many tasks at hand, so I rarely go."

Cheng Han immediately understood that this guy didn't just go "rarely," he hadn't gone at all.

Among everyone present, who could be busier than him?

However, Cheng Han couldn't be bothered with such trivial matters and continued, "I took the time to visit Ningyun Fortress yesterday and saw that the entire fortress was filled with..."

He deliberately paused and said a word with a strong negative connotation, "fear!"

Wanli, the Master Sword, raised his eyebrows slightly and adjusted his sitting posture.

Gu Mingxun's lips moved, wanting to interject.

But due to the immense authority of the Inspector General, the Deputy General eventually closed his mouth and listened quietly.

Cheng Han went straight into the story, "I saw many children on the way, their lips cracked as if they hadn't had water for a long time."

"There was a little boy, about six years old, who kept crying and begging for water, but his mother slapped him hard."

The Blood Shrimp Parasite is a unique and bizarre creature in this world, randomly appearing in any body of water. Even boiling the water cannot prevent its birth.

To reduce the chances of children being infected, many commoners have resorted to the simplest and crudest method - drinking less water.

Cheng Han's tone was full of mockery, "We've defeated the Black Scales, but our commoners dare not even drink water."

The hall fell silent.

No one else spoke.

Lan Jiayao, a female Xuan Shi, secretly admired what she heard.

"Winning battles" and "not daring to drink water" individually may not seem extraordinary.

But when the two are connected, the contrast becomes striking.

This is the art of speech.

Gu Mingxun felt embarrassed and opened his mouth to retort.

But as the Deputy General racked his brains for a while, he couldn't come up with a single word because it was an irrefutable fact.

Cheng Han began to tell the second story, "I also visited a hospital, where every ward was packed, and even some hallways were filled with beds."

"Among them, many patients had their Blood Vine treatment incomplete during their first time, and half a month later, the disease relapsed, forcing them to be hospitalized again."

At this moment, Lan Jiayao seized the opportunity and interjected, "May I add something?"

As the most loyal subordinate, she was always brave enough to charge into battle for her superior.

The female Xuan Shi immediately provided detailed data, "I specifically asked, there are more than 360 people hospitalized in that hospital, and over 30 of them are readmissions."

Cheng Han nodded slightly and continued, "Each Blood Vine treatment usually takes three days, and this method has many side effects."

"The most typical symptom is frequent vomiting, and many people can't eat anything, resulting in a weakened body."

"Some weaker elderly or children often can't withstand this and die before the Blood Shrimp Parasite is completely eliminated..."

The hall became even quieter.

Gu Mingxun shifted his body, wanting to say, "Give us some more time, and we will definitely solve this problem."

But the Deputy General didn't have a chance to speak.

Because a voice perfectly timed cut in and blocked his words.

Cheng Han's tone suddenly became sharp, "How much longer do the patients in the hospital have to wait? How many more people in the war zone have to die before this problem is completely solved?"

Gu Mingxun had no words to respond.

This is a difficult question to answer.

It is also a very deep pit. Once the question is answered, it is equivalent to voluntarily jumping into the pit, so he can only remain silent.

Even if an exaggerated answer is given, such as "it can be resolved next month" or "at most only a dozen people will die," it will still be criticized and unable to escape.

Because the Inspector will definitely say, "As long as the Hua Yunmu clan is accepted, from now on, not a single person will die in the war zone."

There is never an advantage for oneself!

After a moment.

Lan Jiayao timely expressed her stance: "The civilians in the war zone should not die in vain like this. I support the Inspector's suggestion!"

The other two newly appointed deputy generals, Feng Guangjun and Zhang Hanting, also expressed their opinions.

"Since the Hua Yunmu clan is useful, I think we can use them. After all, it's not a bad thing to reduce the number of deaths."

"If we are worried about the Hua Yunmu clan having ulterior motives, we can increase our vigilance in peacetime."

There are a total of seven main and deputy generals in the war zone, which are the seven most important "votes".

Including Cheng Han's own vote, he has already obtained three votes in favor.

Only one vote is still needed.

But this vote is not easy to obtain.

General Jian Wanli seemed hesitant and never expressed his stance.

In a sense, this is almost equivalent to opposition.

It's just that out of respect for the Inspector, the general is reluctant to completely break ties and does not want to say it directly.

At this moment.

Cheng Han thought for a moment and decisively made a strong move.

He looked around and bluntly said, "As the Inspector, I demand that the war zone quickly resolve the issue of Blood Shrimp Syndrome and restore the lives of civilians as soon as possible."

This is the first time he has proactively exercised the authority of the Inspector.

Gu Mingxun completely gave up his opposition.

As the Inspector directly "forced" the situation, the deputy general had no ability to resist and could only accept defeat.

But deep down, Gu Mingxun still believed that this was a very bad idea.

This approach only focuses on short-term benefits and will inevitably plant a big hidden danger in the war zone.

Just imagine, if there is another major war in the Dongli war zone in the future.

If the Hua Yunmu clan is tempted by the three major sea clans with great benefits and suddenly betrays the war zone, wouldn't the war zone be in danger of collapse?

Gu Mingxun sighed inwardly and muttered to himself, "An unwise move!"

Jian Wanli, upon hearing the words "As the Inspector," also became a little uneasy.

He knew very well that there was an underlying meaning in this statement - I am trying to solve the problem, if you are unwilling to cooperate, don't blame me for using the authority of the Inspector.

After pondering for a moment, the general finally spoke up, "Blood Shrimp Syndrome has indeed had a significant impact on the war zone. Let's handle it according to the Inspector's suggestion."

At this point.

The most crucial vote was secured.

Lan Jiayao glanced at Jian Wanli and felt that the general was a bit cunning.

For those who are not familiar with official rhetoric, they may not understand the subtleties.

The female Xuan Master instantly understood. "According to the Inspector's suggestion," it clearly means deliberately distancing oneself from responsibility.

In other words, if the Inspector insists on doing this, even as the general, I dare not stop it. If there are problems in the future, you can go find the Inspector!

Lan Jiayao stole another glance at the side profile of the Inspector and felt even more that her superior had a fearless aura of "daring to be the first in the world."

The suffering of the civilians in the war zone is clearly known to many people, but they turn a blind eye to it.

Only the Inspector truly cares and dares to take action.

It is truly rare!
