Chapter 66: The Great Heng City Incident

In the Lion King squadron camp, Cheng Lei was talking to Du Mo about something, and the faces of both of them were a little gloomy. The sentry standing not far away stood meticulously upright, like a well-built flagpole, particularly heroic, Cheng Lei listened to Du Mo's report while looking at the sentry selected from the cavalry team.

"I've already finished talking about the specific situation, because Mr. Cheng has been too busy recently, and His Excellency the Duke has also seen it, so he said that he wouldn't bother Mr. Cheng to run in person again, so he sent me to talk to Mr. Cheng in detail." Du Mo has two mustaches on his mouth, and he looks more like a large mouse.

Cheng Lei frowned and said, "So, the specific situation has been clarified?" One of the leaders of the horse bandits is Sikong, and the other is the captain of the personal guard who defected from the Tieji tribe? How did these two get together, strange! ”

Du Mo cocked his mustache and said, "Mr. Cheng, when they entered the mountains when they were fleeing, they were taken under the command of the leader of the largest horse bandit in the mountains. Sikong and Sathban were only two of the four minor leaders under the leader of the bandits, but now that the bandits were all incorporated into the regular army of Daheng City, they became the subordinates of the city lord Mo Goda. This Mo Goda is not a good stubble, otherwise Daheng City would not fall into his hands, and I am afraid that their horse bandit leader is not Mo Goda's opponent, let alone Sikong and Satban! ”

Cheng Lei said with some doubts: "Du Mo, you said that since this Mo Geda has already obtained the control of Daheng City, why did he still recruit these horse bandits into the city and give them his power?" If the horse bandits are not of the same mind as him, won't it be self-defeating and raise tigers? ”

Du Mo said: "Mr. Cheng forgot one thing, if you suspect that the city-state is not a legitimate change of city lord, the Federation has the right to send troops to investigate, and to put the previous change of city lord back on track. You must know that although Mo Geda is the nephew of the old city lord, the two sons of the old city lord are still there, and of course the city lord's position will not be Mo Geda's turn. In this way, it will give the Federation an excuse to send troops to Daheng City, and if Mo Geda doesn't want to find a way to strengthen his strength, it will be impossible to sit in a stable position. There is no turning back after coming to this point, even if these horse bandits are a cup of poison, he has to drink it! ”

"What does Your Excellency mean now?" Of course, Cheng Lei has to keep a bottom in his heart and see what Duke Dozan thinks.

Du Mo leaned in front of Cheng Lei and whispered: "Your Excellency the Duke said, wait and see." If they really want to be unfavorable to Yinta City, then unite the major forces in the city and the iron-based tribes outside the city, with the Yinta Army and the mercenary guards as the main body, and fight with them! At that time, it will be reported to the General Military Department of the Federation, and if the Federation can send troops, then the chances of victory will be much greater. ”

"But Daheng City has been coup d'Γ©tat for so long, and the Federation has no explanation at all, I'm afraid that the idea of counting on the Federal Military Department will be in vain." Cheng Lei is in a very bad mood, Daheng City is directly south of Yinta City, that is to say, if Daheng City really wants to start a war against Yinta City, then they will first expel the Tieji tribe, and then occupy the base as a garrison, then they can attack and retreat.

In other words, the base has become a buffer zone and intermediate point between Daheng City and Yinta City, which Cheng Lei especially does not want to see. After sending Du Mo away, Cheng Lei's mood was discouraged for a long time, he was so painstaking in plans and strategies all day long, and all kinds of trivial things were pestering him, tired, just too tired.

But now is not the time to breathe, the sudden change in the situation in Daheng City has caused all this now. The current situation in Daheng City still has a lot to do with Duke Duozan, because during the counterinsurgency war, Duke Duozan sent Xiling to the old city lord of Daheng City, that is, his cousin, to borrow a hundred elite guards.

After the loss of this hundred guards, the old city lord was put under house arrest by his younger brother, Mo Geda's father, that night. Then the two sons of the old lord engaged in a long and fierce battle with Mogoda's father, who was shot and killed in a battle. Mo Geda pretended to surrender and release the old city lord, but no one expected that he ambushed the soldiers under the floor of the peace banquet, and the old city lord and his two sons were all captured and placed under house arrest to this day.

This is really a thirteenth hurricane caused by a butterfly flapping its wings! Who would have thought that this mere 100 soldiers would be able to decide the ownership and direction of a state city, anyway, Cheng Lei would never have imagined it.

Now the cement produced by the cement plant has begun to be sold, because the construction of the base does not need the amount of cement produced every day. And the cement thing will harden after a long time, and the quality will also decline, so it is better to use as much as you want, and sell the rest for money!

Cheng Lei set a price for the cement he produced, 80 gold victors per ton. This price is particularly fair, because the worst-quality cement on the black market is now worth a whopping 100 gold victors per tonne. Cheng Lei sent people to contact a few shopkeepers of other city-states who opened shops in Yinta City, and after they saw the samples, they immediately said that they wanted a large number of goods, and the price of eighty gold victors simply made them a lot of money.

Xing Chenghui also came to the door in person, because now the profit of cement in the Scorching Sun Federation is too great, and he collected a ton of cement from Cheng Lei, and it was twenty or more Jinwei's profit when he sold it. Xing Chenghui, who specializes in caravan trade, naturally prefers this business, and Cheng Lei still expects him to provide gasoline and buy cars, so he gave half of the production to Xing Chenghui, and the remaining quarter was reserved for the base, and the remaining quarter was sold to those shops.

In ten days, after removing the cost, the money from the sale of cement alone reached more than 20,000 gold victors. Cheng Lei simply felt very much at this amount, what he knew was that he was producing cement for sale, and those who didn't know probably thought he was selling drugs, and selling drugs did not have such a big profit, and selling arms was almost the same.

In fact, after the Scorching Sun Federation began to prepare for defense, cement can be called a war preparation material. Compared with arms such as guns and ammunition, cement is even more important. Cheng Lei knows very well that in this world where thermal weapons are still very rudimentary, a solid pillbox and a heavy machine gun can even be worth the strength of a company.

In just ten days, Cheng Lei's cement has already made a name for itself in several surrounding cities. And the fame gradually began to affect the larger and more developed city-states to the west of the Scorching Sun Federation. No one thought that there would be people building cement plants in the Scorching Sun Federation, and the quality of the cement was so good and the price was so fair.

Xing Chenghui designated by Cheng Lei and several shops in the city also felt special enthusiasm, and some of the real power and powerful figures in the city-states who couldn't climb before also asked them about cement, making them feel an unprecedented sense of existence and honor, and the most important thing is to be able to deal with those people, and it will not be difficult for them to sell other materials to those city-states in the future.

In order to show his sincerity to Cheng Lei, Xing Chenghui sent many barrels of gasoline, and said that he had received news from the caravan in the West that he had purchased ten trucks for Cheng Lei, and that they would be able to transport them back in three months.

Xing Chenghui, a complete businessman, also began to bow to Cheng Lei, although it was for cement, in the final analysis, it was for money, but Cheng Lei still felt a great sense of accomplishment. In the past, whether it was buying gasoline or something, Cheng Lei took the initiative so that Xing Chenghui could slowly do things for himself.

It's good now, there is no need for Cheng Lei to say it, Xing Chenghui automatically started to do things for him. And there is no need for Cheng Lei to pay any more personal debts, which is also one of the reasons why Cheng Lei feels relaxed in his heart.

Cheng Lei calculated that Xing Chenghui had earned at least 10,000 gold victors in the past ten days, and 30,000 gold victors a month. Cheng Lei led the Lion King squadron to fight hard to help Duke Duozan win the counterinsurgency war, and Duke Duozan gave him a reward of 30,000 gold victors for half a year!

What is the difference between 30,000 yuan a month and 30,000 yuan in half a year, I believe that I know that if the cement business can continue to do it for a long time, Cheng Lei is definitely Xing Chenghui's food and clothing parents. I believe that the profits of Xing Chenghui's several major caravans selling oil mines to the Western Empire cannot reach the profits of selling cement now!

Now that the situation in Daheng City has been determined, Cheng Lei does not plan to act rashly, and urgently summons the cheetah team back to the city. After the cheetah team returned to the city, Cheng Leiliu gave them a task, that is, to recruit soldiers. Now that he has money in his hand, of course Cheng Lei will not be stingy with anything, only with enough troops at hand can he not be afraid of the threat of Daheng City, and he will also be able to protect himself when Balunou launches a war against the Scorching Sun Federation in the future.

Li Changcheng sighed a little, he had just trained the eleven members of the Cheetah Squad to be regarded as qualified special forces, and now the task is coming again. Cheng Lei's previous thoughts were still not dispelled, the cheetah team had just been established and named, and it was about to be changed to a recruit training camp.

Cheng Lei ordered Li Changcheng to serve as the commander of the boot training camp, and all the others served as the captain of the boot camp. In total, more than 500 recruits were recruited and trained under the captains of the various recruit battalions. After the training of the recruits is completed, they will be assigned to each squad for systematic teaching and training, and at that time, the entire Lion King Squadron will be upgraded to the Lion King Army, with four squadrons and one cavalry team under its jurisdiction.

After the base is built, it will be called the Lion King Base, and the future Lion King Army and Lion King Base will definitely have a huge impact on the entire Scorching Sun Federation and even the entire Eastern and Western worlds. When it really grows, all people will not dare to look down on it, and they will tremble at every anger it has.
