Chapter 065: The enemy is invading

A day passed, and the spies in front of him had not yet sent back the news, but at this time, a message that was beyond Zheng Qi's expectations but reasonable came. To the south of them, that is, the direction close to South Wa State, a group of small armed teams rushed towards them, with about 200 people, using armed pickup trucks and off-road vehicles, heading straight to Zheng Qi's direction.

After listening to the information sent back by his subordinates, Zheng Qi continued to ask: "Do you know who they are?"

"I heard that Li Jie took the lead. Since his territory was occupied by us, he has been looking for allies. I guess the team was fooled by me by mistake, because the opponent's armed forces this time are not very strong, and judging from their appearance, it should be unclear how strong our firepower is." A soldier said.

"Hehe, I was cheated?" Zheng Qi smiled, "This man is really capable. In just a few days, he actually deceived a group of people so quickly. It's not simple, it's not simple."

Zheng Qi walked forward slowly with a book in his hand. A soldier followed him, scratching his head, as if he didn't understand what Zheng Qi said, and asked in a low voice: "Sir, then do we want to hit them?"

"Why don't you fight?" Zheng Qi stopped, patted the soldier's head with a book, and smiled: "Go now, aren't there five howitzers there? Just use that to hit them hard."

"Oh," the soldier nodded, then stood at attention, "As for orders, sir."

Zheng Qi shook his head and smiled, then continued to look down at the book in his hand. To be honest, he flipped through the military strategy book for a whole morning and was still the same page, without any change. I wonder if he was really fascinated or was lazy?

After a while, there were sounds of deafening shelling sounds from the south. They all used 152mm caliber howitzers, with one shell weighing forty or fifty kilograms, and they could be heard within a radius of several kilometers. It is estimated that the more than 200 people driving cars to attack were not even seen by the enemy, and they were beaten to the point of being almost unable to find the north, and then left in shame. This should be an interesting thing. However, Zheng Qi did not go there to see it.

After a while.

He picked up the radio intercom he carried with him and said, "Well, you can stop. Let them get close to the area we marked out last time, and then give them a few warnings, telling them not to mess with us. What should I do in the end? I need to kill and cut, and you can do whatever I want."

"Received, sir" a concise answer came from the radio.

The cannon sound then stopped, and the residents here began to get used to the day when the cannon sounds were heard every day. Although it was noise, in their opinion, this was a manifestation of safety. With such a brave group of soldiers guarding the place, what else do they have to worry about?

At the same time, many people were glad to stay. From last time to now, four or five hundred people have left. Zheng Qi was not full of turtle spirit. After all, many people were still afraid of him. After leaving, it was four days later, and there were probably more than 500 people who stayed. The number is not small. They usually have their own jobs. The mountains to the east are poppy flowers. They used to do planting work. After the poppy matured, they began to make opium. After one process, piles of flour were made and sold abroad.

But now it's different. They are busy lighting fires on the mountains these days, first clearing out the poppies, then piled up together, lighter a little, and these amazing wealth turns into ashes.

But once these things disappear, these people will lose their source of income. Usually, they rely on planting these things in exchange for some meager salary, thus ensuring their source of life. But now, Zheng Qi burned it out with a fire, and their lives are completely gone.

To be honest, from this step, Zheng Qi finally realized the difficulties of being the highest administrative commander in a region. He wanted to ban drugs and promote justice. Well, all the people followed suit and wiped out the drugs. Well, it was his turn to have a headache this time. He had to eat so many mouths. He couldn't let everyone go farm now, right? Besides, when the harvest is coming, everyone will starve to death.

If all these people were driven away, this problem might be solved. But although he seemed vicious and treated human life like a must, he was just facing the enemy, facing these innocent people, and facing those who trust him, he still couldn't bear to treat them like this.

"Hey, it's a headache, a headache." Zheng Qi patted his head. Before he knew it, he walked to the door of a small bar. The door was open and some music was heard inside, as if someone had walked in. He walked in to see what he had to drink.

Coincidentally, He Ximei, who disappeared for a day, was actually inside. Aside her was Su Ning, who was usually a little timid, and a female soldier nicknamed "Nightinging". She was personally selected by He Ximei from the recruit training half a year ago. She looked very popular and in her early twenties. She was still young at the time and didn't know the darkness of the military camp. What was the result of a girl with a somewhat beautiful appearance like her? Naturally, there is no need to say more.

It was also at that time that He Ximei might have felt compassion and brought her by her side, which could be considered as a rescue. She followed He Ximei, as if she treated her as her sister. She was quiet and didn't like to talk much. She should be weak, but she was not worse than a man in training, and her grades were still among the best among the ten female team members. She finally didn't lose He Ximei's face.

"Sir" Nightingale saw Zheng Qi coming, and said as she stood at the sight of the military salute. Zheng Qi waved her hand and said, "No, it's not a formal occasion now, so be more casual. Besides, I'm not used to doing this."

"What are you three women doing?" Zheng Qi glanced at the bar. There was a bottle of vodka in front of them, and the wine in their cups was only added with a little ice. Drinking this way must be very strong. Unexpectedly, the three of them were used to drinking this way.

"Do you want to have a cup too?" He Ximei said with a smile, pouring him a cup.

Zheng Qi grabbed it and took a sip. The coolness spread from his throat to his stomach, followed by a hot feeling. He couldn't help but look at a few more women. He Ximei and Nightingale's faces remained unchanged, and even Su Ning looked like a hero among women.

"Where did you look for ice?" Zheng Qi glanced at the surroundings, but then he understood that it was originally a small bar, but now that it is powered up, there are naturally these things.

Suddenly, the wine bottle on the bar trembled, and the cup also vibrated. Several more shellings came from afar, sending low sound waves into their ears. Every time it seemed like they were hitting their hearts, as if their feet were unstable. Nightingale and He Ximei were not abnormal, and they were still holding the wine glass and chatting, but Su Ning's face was a little unfavorable.

"Haha, don't be afraid, those guys are probably playing games," Zheng Qi said with a smile. It seems that after the warning just now, I guess we have started to get close contact. If Zheng Qi is probably good, there will be a sound of a mortar next.

"Mortar?" He Ximei frowned, "Is the enemy attacking me?"

"Of course" Zheng Qi nodded, "I asked them to come here."

"Why?" Su Ning asked curiously.

"The chief is warning them, and also finding a reason to attack the surrounding forces, because they took action first and had a reason to gain a foothold, they can deal with them openly in the future," Nightingale explained to Su Ning.

"Smart" Zheng Qi nodded with a smile. Since he planned to compete for hegemony, he didn't mean to stay here all day.

Su Ning nodded in a slight understanding, but she still didn't understand clearly at her appearance.

"We should have taken action these days, right?" He Ximei asked.

"Well, if there is no accident, I will destroy the most powerful force around me and see how those people around me perform." Zheng Qi said.

"Kill the chicken to warn the monkey, good attention. In this way, if they are shocked, we may have less trouble and have more time to deal with the threat from Wa State." He Ximei nodded in agreement with Zheng Qi's idea.

"Su Ning***, it's boring to hear us talk about war?" Nightingale said with a smile to Su Ning beside her. She called her sister, but the two were not much older.

"Yeah," Su Ning responded in a low voice, "I don't understand. They didn't do this before, just keep the place."

"Haha, then let's not talk about these things, let's talk about your future affairs?" Zheng Qi put down his wine glass. After missing opium, the casino lost business. The people here were really completely "liberated".

"From the future?" Su Ning shook her head, "No one dared to come here anymore. In the past, it relied on planting and casinos, and then the number of people brought about the development of the service industry, but now all these have stopped. There are no cities nearby, so there may be many people who want to leave."

"I didn't expect you to be young, but you know a lot." He Ximei said, "Indeed, these have become a big problem now, but according to my observations these days, most of you are relatively young and may be able to do some manual work."

Zheng Qi looked at He Ximei, and he seemed to understand what she was going to say next.

He Ximei secretly smiled at Zheng Qi and said, "If we add a batch of equipment and provide a large number of diamonds to grind and process them for you, wouldn't that be a perfect solution to this problem?"

"Diamond?" Su Ning looked at He Ximei curiously, "If there is, there will be no problem, but I have never heard of diamonds in this area, and some of them are just jade and jade."

"The supply of goods is fine, you don't have to worry." He Ximei said, "And with our expansion, there will be no major problems with jade. Do you remember? I remember that there are a lot of jade produced under some nearby forces."

Zheng Qi smiled and after copying the diamond, it was jade.

"So don't have to worry about these." He Ximei said, "The main thing is that we must occupy more places as soon as possible, and this opportunity is very close. Once Shan and Wa states in this area fight, the surrounding areas will definitely be in chaos. As the saying goes, heroes will come from troubled times, we will rely on this good opportunity to continue to expand. At that time, they will find that the mantis stalks the cicada, but there are still orioles behind."

"Well, that's true." Zheng Qi said, "Okay, some problems are solved for the time being. Another important thing is to demonstrate to the surrounding forces and let some people who like to cause trouble dispel this idea so that we can shift our focus to expansion."...
