c_t;“ Yes......"

Lin Si frowned and tried to think about it for a while, and finally nodded. "Ke * Le* Yan * Love * First * Fa ()" [No pop-up novel network baoly] (advertisement)

Fuyao is exaggerating, in fact, when the army entered the city, nearly 1,000 people in the city still appeared on both sides of the street.

But compared with the cities of Gancheng, Jiacheng, Micheng, and Mingcheng, which were defeated by him, it was naturally a world of difference.

In those cities, Lin Si's army was greeted with great enthusiasm, and almost hundreds of thousands of people in the entire city poured out.

With tears in their eyes, people greeted the army who had come to their rescue, and the applause of flowers and fireworks rendered the glory of the whole city.

In contrast, Cangcheng's welcome lineup is indeed very different.

Even the nearly 1,000 people just silently watched the army entering the city, and no one rushed forward to talk and hug the soldiers, let alone cheer and shed tears.

If it weren't for Fuyao's reminder, Lin Si would have thought it wouldn't be surprising.

You can't ask for a grand welcome ceremony every time you win a battle, right?

And Cangcheng, as the northernmost city of the Moon Kingdom, as the first place to be occupied and enslaved by the Southern Qi, it is not surprising that there will be some differences, isn't it?

It wasn't until Fuyao's words now that he felt that something was indeed wrong.

If you really want to describe it, the nearly 1,000 people who appeared on the streets at that time only had numbness and indifference on their faces.

For the army of the Moon Kingdom who came to rescue them, they did not show how welcome they were, nor did they have any hatred, as if it was none of their business.

And Lin Si still remembered that at that time, he once sensed some sights behind the windows and doors of some street houses, and those eyes were vigilant and scrutinizing......

This city is indeed very different.

Fuyao said slowly: "This city is not easy to manage, if you want to use this place as your base camp, I'm afraid it will be difficult." ”

Lin Si raised his eyebrows: "Why?"

"Because this is Cangcheng, you should know what kind of city Cangcheng used to be, and there were many gang forces here. Read the full text of the latest chapter"

"As far as I know, there seem to be a lot of gangs in the City of School Gardens, what gangs will you, the son of the city lord of the City of School Gardens, be afraid of?" Lin Si frowned.

"It's different.,The city of the school is a peaceful place after all.。 The gangs there are not weak, but they are much more disciplined. This can be seen only from the titles of both sides......"

"What are you called?"

"The gangs in the city of the school park,Generally speaking, they are called underground gangs.,Underground forces.。 They themselves acquiesce to this fact, and they generally don't touch the bottom line that is acceptable to the authorities. And this is different, this city is actually managed by the major gangs, they are not an underground organization, they are the rulers on the surface. ”

"I see, so what do these people do for a living?"

"In addition to opening casinos, opening green buildings, opening restaurants, and collecting protection fees in the city, and collecting tolls for caravans, it is a business. ”

"Do business?" Lin Si was surprised.

"Any trade, including the slave trade, the sale of armor and weapons, the sale of magic cores, the sale of salt and iron, the sale of intelligence, the sale of all other things that are not officially allowed to be traded. Of course, there are some legitimate ...... to buy and sell."

"Slaves, there are still slaves in the Moon Country?" Lin Si said with some incredulity.

"There are always families who are down, there are always poor people who can't survive, and there are always prisoners of war who ......"

"Where to sell?"

"Sold from other places to the Moon Country, or from the Moon Country to the Southern Qi Qian, Blue and Purple Star Lan Country...... In short, someone sells, someone buys. ”

"What about the intelligence?"

"All kinds of information, between cultivators, between two ** teams, in the local officialdom, and between families......"

"This kind of thing, the Northern Army doesn't care?"

"It can't be managed, the gang is not only cultivators, but also a large number of ordinary people. ”

Whew, Lin Sichang let out a long breath, as if he had re-acquainted himself with this city that belonged to the Moon Kingdom.

"What about the common people here, are they left to this situation?"

"Although the vast majority of people are not cultivators, most of them are from the rest of the Moon Country. They may have been oppressed by the gang here, but the gang also gave them protection in disguise.

The reason why this city is so big is because many people from all over the rest of the Moon Country have poured over. In addition, it is very close to the Southern Qi Dynasty, and there are still a considerable number of Southern Qi people in the city. ”

Lin Si narrowed his eyes: "So what? The people here have been assimilated by the people of Nanqi?"

"No, I can't confirm that. But there is one thing, do you think these people would want the Moon Kingdom official to completely control this place, and manage this place in the same way as the rest of the cities?"

Lin Si was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head slowly.

Fuyao is right, most of the people who came here in the Moon Country have committed crimes in other parts of the Moon Country, or have had grudges with people. In addition to this, there are also a group of cultivators who do not obey the discipline and want to do something.

Whether they came here on their own initiative, or were passively driven here and exiled here, the reason for choosing Cangcheng is simple - it is free and safe.

As for the Nanqi people who live here, it should be a similar reason, right?

It is no wonder that those people showed such an indifferent attitude towards the arrival of the army into the city. I'm afraid that whether the people of Nanqi or the people of the Moon Kingdom rule here, it will be the same for them, right?

As long as they don't interfere in the affairs of Cangcheng, they don't care which country the city belongs to.

Although he understood this, it didn't mean that Lin Si would support them.

"I need a steady one that won't hold my army back. He said lightly.

His voice was calm, but there was a strong determination in his words.

Fuyao sighed: "So it's hard to ......"

Tang Xiaozhi suddenly asked: "How did the Northern Army manage this city before, they couldn't let it go. ”

Lin Si and Fuyao both heard what she meant, how the Northern Army was in charge before, now it can be as usual. This will not only stabilize the situation here as quickly as possible, but also make it easier for people here to accept them.

"Half cooperative, half ......laissez-faire"

When Fuyao said this, he was looking at Lin Si. Whether or not to continue the old path of the previous Northern Army depends on Lin Si's attitude.

"What about the specifics?" Lin Si asked noncommittally.

"In the past, the Northern Army had garrisons in this city, but they were only in charge of the city defense. As for internal affairs, it is dependent on local gangs to run independently.

The military will charge the gang some oil and water similar to protection money, and will even cooperate with them to do something. The gang gave the military a face, recognizing their official status, and at the same time, the military would not interfere in the internal affairs of the city.

To put it bluntly, it is the separation of the military and the government, each doing its own thing. ”

Lin Si took a deep breath: "How strong are these gangs?"

"Originally, there was a large gang here, the 'Wanyue Society', and at its peak there were no less than 6,000 monks, and there were 200 in the extreme realm. The two medium-sized gangs, the 'War Tiger Gang' and the 'Heavenly Killing Society', both have one or two thousand monks, and there are twenty or thirty in each of the extreme realms.

As for the rest of the small gangs, there are as many as a cow, but the number of people is only a dozen, and the number is nearly a hundred. ”

"The names of these gangs are very imposing. Lin Si tugged at the corners of his mouth.

Indeed, with such strength, it is very difficult for the military to really want to exterminate them.

One of the biggest differences between cultivators and ordinary armies is that they are very flexible. Set up a formation to attack, maybe the 20,000 or so gang cultivators in this Cangcheng City can't fight more than 50,000 ordinary troops.

But they wouldn't be so stupid to shake the army head-on, they could harass and assassinate, so that they would have the strength to fight even against an army of 100,000.

And they can completely escape into Southern Qi when the shape is not good, and the shape shì is stable and come back.

These people are like stubborn diseases that grow on the Moon Country, and it is difficult to eradicate them.

And the military may also want to borrow their strength to resist the Nanqi people. After all, the people of Cangcheng didn't want to be controlled by the Moon Country, nor did they want to be interfered in the affairs of the Nanqi people.

"It's very imposing...... Fuyao smiled bitterly, as if he was used to Lin Si's whimsical style.

"What is the origin of the waning moon, why is it so strong?"
