Chapter 98: Uncovering the Conspiracy
The war in the Northern Continent is developing towards the normal trajectory expected by Wang Chen.
The strong development potential of those countries occupied and ruled by the Eastern Continent is the envy of the people in the unoccupied areas.
Although, the cultivator forces in the unoccupied areas, as well as the secular armies, are still preparing for war.
But the foundation of the people under their rule can be said to have collapsed significantly.
In order to escape the war, hundreds of people dragged their families and moved to the occupied areas of the Eastern Continent.
However, this kind of behavior was not stopped by the relevant departments, and even spies were sent to infiltrate it, trying to penetrate deep into the rear of the occupied areas of the Eastern Continent to cause sabotage.
Some people may say that in the decisive battle to overthrow the Kasumiin Imperial Power, those civilians who poured out of the imperial city could be isolated, why can't they do so now?
In fact, it is really not possible now, because the number of displaced people is too large, and the 1st and 2nd Army Corps have no way to carry out all the quarantine examinations, let alone use military rations to feed them, so they can only leave the heavy responsibility of detailed examination to the local government.
The reason why the army of the Eastern Continent is loved by the people is that the key is the military order of "treating the people well", so it will not wave the butcher's knife against the defenseless people.
......
Wang Chen took his two wives to the western continent, and naturally saw a large number of displaced people pouring into many cities, and after learning more about it, he realized that these were displaced people who fled from unoccupied areas.
The local government is also anxious about this, and there are constantly people stirring up trouble in it, and homeless riots occur from time to time.
The destructive power of the civil explosion in the era of cold weapons is very amazing, and there are even several cities that are directly occupied by the mob.
Empress Lanyue was also in a hurry, and had to send troops back to suppress the riot, so that the strategy of continuing to move forward was greatly affected.
After Wang Chen learned of this situation, not only did he not panic, but he was very excited.
He immediately summoned Chen Mo and asked him to quickly carry out large-scale infrastructure construction in the cities of all the occupied areas.
The large number of displaced people is a source of cheap labor.
Since he is a refugee, he can earn money to support his family, and he will definitely be grateful to Dade.
If you are a spy among the outcasts, you will definitely not want to be called as a coolie.
If this part of the people is brought out for review, the efficiency will definitely be much higher, killing two birds with one stone.
After Wang Chen passed the news to Chen Mo, he asked the two ladies to stay at the inn, and he went directly to the City Lord's Mansion to prepare to give advice in person.
Coming to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Wang Chen identified himself.
Unexpectedly, after the guards reported, he blocked the door and did not let him in, which surprised Wang Chen.
With his current reputation, the local city lord's mansion dared to stop it?
Wang Chen wasn't angry, but he was also a little depressed, he knew that he should have taken a piece of Elder Token from the Empty Island from Hua Langying, so it shouldn't be so troublesome.
He also wanted to be repaid, but the guards were the first to speak.
didn't bother with it, but said very politely: "Brother, the city lord said that he is meeting with important guests and has no time." ”
Wang Chen was about to speak, but the guard kindly persuaded: "It's not that the elder brother said that you, brother, it's not good for you to pretend to be someone, why do you want to come out of Mr. Wang Chen? Don't you know that this is a capital crime? Seeing that you are young, I don't want to see you in a different place, so hurry up." ”
Another guard also chimed in: "How could a fairy-like figure like Mr. Wang Chen appear here? Look at your good hands and feet, isn't it good to join the army and go to the front line to make military achievements? ”
Wang Chen was speechless, these two guards actually thought he was a liar, but they respected the name Wang Chen so much that he was angry and didn't laugh.
"You two are so silly cute. ”
Wang Chen said a word, and jumped directly into the courtyard wall of the City Lord's Mansion, two guards who were only in the Origin Realm, how could they catch his moving figure?
After a pause, he shouted at the same time: "There are thieves who have broken into the City Lord's Mansion to protect the City Lord's ......!"
For a while, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion searched everywhere.
Wang Chen's spiritual power was strong, and he had already sensed the direction of the city lord, and like a gust of wind, he quickly appeared outside the room, and heard that things were being discussed inside.
Wang Chen pushed the door in, and sneered sarcastically: "The city lord is really busy!"
The city lord is more than forty years old, and he has cultivated six souls, and in terms of cultivation talent, he is higher than Yan Wuya.
There was another person opposite him, but he was a Taoist triple, dressed as a homeless person.
Without waiting for the two to speak, Wang Chen looked at the Taoist Sanju dressed as a wanderer, and said coldly, "You want to control this city?"
He heard the conversation between the two at the door, and he didn't beat around the bush, and directly broke it.
When the two of them saw a stranger pushing the door in, their faces were full of shock, and then they sensed that it was just a well-dressed ordinary young man, and they suddenly had gloomy faces, and their killing intent was full.
The city lord said coldly: "It's you who lie that you are Wang Chen, the son-in-law of the empty island?"
The tone of this city lord didn't want the guards outside the door to respect Wang Chen so much.
The men in this world who are willing to join are very incompetent people.
Wang Chen didn't answer him, he still stared at the Taoist Sanzhong, and said, "Don't think about killing me, because you don't have the ability, tell me who you are? Which force are you from? If the answer satisfies me, maybe it will give you a good time." ”
The Taoist was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Boy, I'm afraid you haven't woken up, and you'll die for your grandfather!"
As he spoke, he directly reached out and grabbed Wang Chen's neck.
Wang Chen also smiled: "You don't have a chance, you will soon regret not dying immediately." ”
He said it lightly, and so did his movements, seeing that he raised his hand casually, he grabbed the wrist of that person, and his vitality instantly rushed into the opponent's body, until his meridians were completely broken.
The Taoist Triple was like a deflated ball, and he suddenly collapsed to the ground, looking at the unattractive young man in front of him with a frightened face, how could this person cultivate so high?
Wang Chen didn't stop, took out a red porcelain bottle, pinched open the Daoist's teeth, and poured the medicine into his mouth.
In an instant, the man's skin began to spasm, his face distorted, and a terrible scream came from his mouth, begging for mercy.
Wang Chen was unmoved, and said coldly: "Can you answer my question now?"
I said...... I said, under Liu Feihu, a disciple of Lingyun Kingdom, the predecessor spares his life!" he endured great pain and quickly explained his origin.
Wang Chen said: "It turned out to be a disciple of the Cloud Piercing Palace, and it can be regarded as a great force second only to the Xuanyun Sect in the Northern Continent, what are you doing here?"
Liu Feihu endured the torture of ten thousand ants and told the matter one by one.
It turned out that he and some of his brothers were ordered by the division to go to the occupied area of the Eastern Continent, intending to recapture the city and cut off the supply of the front.
And at the moment, this city lord is a junior disciple of the Cloud Piercing Palace, so he came to negotiate the matter of controlling the city.
Who would have thought that a guy who called himself Wang Chen would suddenly appear and easily defeat himself.
The city lord was already trembling with fright at the moment, the senior brother of the Taoist triple cultivation was easily restrained by the person in front of him, and he only shaped the soul realm, how could he have the power to resist?
Could it be that this person is really Wang Chen? so young?
This time I will definitely die, but don't be tortured like that by my senior brother!
Wang Chen didn't continue to interrogate Liu Feihu, turned his eyes to look at the city lord who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and said, "You immediately write out the secret stake lurking in our side in the Cloud Piercing Palace, as well as the secret contact information, if you want to be detailed, I may be able to spare your life." ”
The city lord was overjoyed and hurriedly confessed everything he knew.
"Is there anything else?" Wang Chen looked at the dozens of Cloud Piercing Palace Secret Piles in his hands, all of them were holding important positions in the occupied area, and the highest one was actually a Dao Venerable cultivator, and it was in the Great Yan Imperial City where the Cheng clan was located, which made him shocked.
The city lord said respectfully: "I only know so much, and some of them are from other sects. ”
The screams here naturally attracted the guards outside, and soon someone came outside the house, and the guards nervously said, "How are you?"
But he didn't dare to break in directly.
The city lord was overjoyed in his heart, and was about to order the guards outside to come in and take down Wang Chen, but he was panicked when he saw a smile from the other party.
What is Wang Chen's identity, how can he go out without the protection of a master? If he uses his brain again, I am afraid that the end will not be better than that of his senior brother.
"Come in!" Wang Chen shouted.
Outside, a Soul Shaping Triple Guard Leader, a partial general of the Eastern Continent, was left here to defend the City Lord's Mansion.
When he saw the situation in the house, he was a little dazed, and his eyes kept rolling on Wang Chen, the city lord, and the people who were screaming on the ground.
In the end, his gaze stayed on Wang Chen, as if he felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while?
Wang Chen said: "Don't guess, I am Wang Chen, this city lord and the guy who pretended to be a homeless person on the ground are all disciples of the Cloud Piercing Palace. ”
As he spoke, he took out another list, handed it to the head of the guard, and said, "According to this list, take people among the homeless." ”
"The last general will obey the orders of the gentleman. The leader of the guards took the order, and directly turned around and beckoned his subordinates to take people.
As for Wang Chen's safety, he didn't worry about it at all, he could even take down the "friend" of the city lord on the ground, so naturally he didn't need to send someone to protect him.
Wang Chen abolished the two secret piles of the Cloud Piercing Palace, put them in prison, and waited for the next city lord to deal with them, and asked people to send a message to the two ladies and let them live in the city lord's mansion together.
He sent another message to Chen Mo, asking him to meet Cheng Dongqing in person, inform him of the secret stake, and send a reliable person to take over the City Lord's Mansion.
And repeatedly instructed that he must meet in person and not let people interrogate, because the Dao Venerable of the Cloud Palace happened to be in charge of Dayan's communication agency.
Before Cheng Dongqing's people arrived, Wang Chen had to continue to make a cameo appearance as the city lord here for a few days.
He felt that the infrastructure should be implemented first, and Chen Mo's people would go directly to the frontier city with the largest number of displaced people.
As for the arrest of the hidden piles, Wang Chen believes that Cheng Dongqing will have a way to follow the vine and pull out most of the hidden piles as quickly as possible.
That woman's head is not much worse than Hua Lianying, and even at the level of political struggle, it may be even better, Wang Chen is not worried at all.
Wang Chen sat in the position of the city lord's mansion with the infrastructure plan written on it, and ordered someone to call the two guards who had blocked him from the door a few days ago.
The two of them have been in a panic since they knew that the young man they thought was a swindler a few days ago was really Mr. Yakushi.
was summoned at this moment, and I only thought that I was going to settle accounts with the autumn queen, and the secret story was over.
The two of them Wang Chen were writing something on the desk, and they didn't dare to disturb, kneeling in the lobby nervously, and they didn't dare to come out.
