Chapter 258: Fire

After a year of fighting, with the defeat of the Shark Gang, the strategic goal set by Xia Nan a year ago has basically been achieved, and the most basic goal has been reached. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After sweeping away all the dozens of water bandit forces on the Han River, the rest are some water bandit forces with no more than 1,000 people, and they have no advantage in the face of the giant Hanyang Gang.

The strength of the Hanyang Gang is getting stronger and stronger, and the results of the battle are more and more amazing, and the greater the deterrent effect will be on those small gangs on the Han River.

After a year's fighting, the Hanyang Gang has basically become the overlord on the Han River, and as a powerful overlord force, it should have the appearance of a hegemon.

As for whether the Shark Gang will continue to fight after taking down the Sharks and dominating the Han River, it is really not a very easy thing to say, after all, who knows what will happen in the future.

Although the strength of the Hanyang Gang is getting stronger and stronger, and the deterrent power on the Han River has reached a peak, and there will even be an even stronger deterrent force in the future, perhaps in the rivers and lakes, but it is really difficult to say what the result will be.

Whether he will continue to fight in the future, or still maintain an enterprising spirit, this is certain, Xia Nan will definitely not stop his steps, but he may not be able to move at will again recently.

The battles have exhausted the accumulation of the Hanyang Gang, and even since the successive victories, most of the money obtained has been invested in the war.

It has become a big gang with 100,000 people, even compared to the beggar gang that is famous in the rivers and lakes, the number of people is not necessarily much less, and the strength has become stronger.

Such a powerful gang, in the future, will it still rely on robbery to make a living, not to mention that it has a bad reputation, if you want to feed 100,000 people, I am afraid it will not be so easy to rely on robbery alone.

Moreover, 100,000 people are engaged in the work of robbery, Xia Nan can basically imagine it, and at that time, the people or merchants of the world will definitely not go up the Han River again.

The water of the Han River is surging, the water flow is very fast, compared to the excavated canal, it is much more dangerous, it is not a boat, there are fewer people or merchant ships passing on the Han River, if the Hanyang Gang still carries out robbery after controlling the Han River, Xia Nan can almost imagine that there will be no one on the Han River.

After wiping down all the forces on the Han River, Xia Nan had an idea, or he could establish a sect or sect based on the Hanyang Gang, which could also increase everyone's cohesion, and also make the inheritance of the sect more long-term and more beneficial.

With such an idea, Xia Nan worked hard to improve his ideas, and after perfecting them again and again, he actually had a little meaning, and now, he only owes Dongfeng.

What is this east wind, it is naturally money, if you don't have money, you can't do anything, besides, Xia Nan's plan must need a lot of money to do it.

Xia Nan's plan was to open up the Han River into a waterway, like a canal, where boats could sail at will, and boats that could fit both large and small boats, and then collect tolls.

The Cao gang on the canal, sitting on the canal, although it did not collect tolls, but the power and labor under its control, through the canal, can obtain benefits, I don't know how many, the daily flow is not calculated, can get a lot of money.

In Xia Nan's plan, the future Hanyang Gang will be like the Cao Gang, infiltrating all aspects of the Han River, and even going further and receiving tolls.

The Cao Gang is already very remarkable, the power of the Cao Gang is enough to interfere with Cao Yun, you know, Cao Yun is for the imperial court, and the Cao Gang can do this, which is really powerful.

What Xia Nan wants the Hanyang Gang to do is to surpass the Cao Gang's actions, if this is really done, the Qianli Han River will really become the back garden of the Hanyang Gang, you can do whatever you want, it is not an exaggeration to say that you want to take what you want.

In order to achieve this, the first step is to control the Han River, so that the flow of the Han River is slightly smoother, especially the many dangerous places in the Han River, and it must be made suitable for boats.

This kind of project to control the Han River is a huge project, and it is not possible to complete this project in a short period of time, and the cost is bound to be extremely staggering.

If you want to do such a thing, generally speaking, it requires a country to do its best to do it, and it is not at all something that a certain force can do.

Let's just say that this canal owned by the Cao Gang, which runs through the north and south, looks very awesome, and plays an important role in the transportation of the north and south of the Ming Kingdom.

However, such a canal is not something that an idle person can do at all, because it took a lot of manpower and material resources to dig out of the previous dynasty, and after digging such a canal, the national strength of the previous dynasty was exhausted, which was a great loss for the previous dynasty.

The reason why the previous dynasty was defeated had a lot to do with the digging of this canal, because the digging of this canal, connecting the north and the south, consumed too much national strength of the previous dynasty, which made the imperial court decline rapidly, and suppressed it by force when the peasant uprising broke out, so the former dynasty was replaced.

Throughout the ages, such a huge project, even the imperial court is unwilling to build it easily, it is not something that can be done at all, and if it is not good, it will waste national strength and bury a dynasty.

Under what circumstances, although one dynasty has been handed down from dynasty to dynasty, the Han River is still the same Han River, and no dynasty has said that it wants to take a break to make the Han River more smooth.

Now, Xia Nan wants to control the Han River and make it more suitable for people to live, but it is not an easy task, it takes too much effort, and with the strength of the Hanyang Gang, it is basically impossible to achieve peace with a little.

It's not that there aren't enough people in the Hanyang Gang, after the destruction of the Shark Gang, the people of the Hanyang Gang have steadily increased to 100,000 people, which is definitely the size of a big gang.

I think that back then, when the canal was dug up, the number of people requisitioned by the previous dynasty was only 100,000, and this person from the Hanyang Gang must be enough.

There are enough people from the Hanyang Gang, but it is impossible for Xia Nan to let all the soldiers and civilians of the Hanyang Gang dig the Han River together, wouldn't that be self-defeating.

As the leader of a class, he must think about this class, if he is dissatisfied with others, all of them are right, even if Xia Nan's martial arts are strong and can be suppressed strongly, but it is basically impossible to sit firmly as the leader of the Hanyang Gang.

When the canal was built, only 20,000 or 30,000 of the 100,000 people died, and the rest were all disabled.

The accumulation of such a dynasty is so deep, it is unlucky to say that it is unlucky, the Hanyang Gang cannot but say that it is powerful, this year, the war has continued, the Hanyang Gang can continue to rise, and gradually become more powerful, such a gang is definitely not so easy to deal with.

It's just that no matter how powerful the Hanyang Gang is, it is impossible to have the heritage of a dynasty after all, so if Xia Nan governs the Han River according to the methods of the previous dynasty, he will definitely not be able to die again.

The kind of large-scale use of the people in the previous dynasty is absolutely undesirable, besides, Xia Nan has only one Hanyang Gang in his hands, and if he wants to turn all the soldiers and civilians of the 100,000 Hanyang Gang into people's husbands, it will definitely lead others to resist, and when the time comes, whether the Hanyang Gang can still hold on to him is a question.

Xia Nan will definitely not do this kind of self-digging grave thing, the way he wants is to use money to recruit people to do it, but he must not do it in the backward way of engineering in the past, otherwise, how much does it cost to eat and drink 100,000 people.

With 100,000 people to eat and drink, plus the money to start work, even if there is a mountain of gold and silver, it has to be hollowed out, not to mention, in Xia Nan's hands, there is not so much money at all.

However, as a person who has crossed over from modern society, Xia Nan is just some simple engineering methods that can save a lot of manpower, and what originally took 100,000 people to do, now, only 10,000 people are needed.

Some of the things that Xia Nan knows can be copied to the present, and they are definitely not machines and equipment, with his level and current state, he will definitely not be able to develop big technology, and he can only hurry up a little in a way to save manpower, which is already good.

With this kind of thought, Xia Nan dared to have that capital, saying that he wanted to govern the Han River, if Yishui was the scientific and technological conditions of this era, Xia Nan would definitely not dare to do this thing.

With this in mind, Xia Nan began to plan, even so, it required a lot of manpower, he roughly calculated, at least three thousand people.

The control of the Han River is to control some of the steep places on the Han River, not to excavate, the amount of work is naturally much smaller than the excavation of the canal, but even so, it will require a lot of people, at least more than 30,000 people.

The number of 30,000 people is definitely not a small number, so many people, it is still an incredible thing to find them all, fortunately, the method that Xia Nan thought of can save about ten times the manpower and material resources, so that the number of 30,000 people will suddenly become 3,000 people.

If it is 30,000 people, Xia Nan must not even think about it, 3,000 people still have a little hope, but if you want to gather 3,000 people, you have to pay wages, you have to take care of food and drink, this money is still not a small amount, like mountains and seas.

With so much money and all of it taken out at once, it is really amazing, with the current strength of the Hanyang Gang, it will definitely not be possible, there is no hope at all.

With such an idea, Xia Nan must want to achieve it, and it is not so easy to achieve this, at least, the money must be sufficient, and enough money must be prepared first.

As for saying that if you give up this plan, you can save this money, Xia Nan really didn't think about it, he was not the kind of person who was short-sighted, only staring at a small area in front of him, only looking at the front of him.

If you control the Han River, you can get a good river channel, you can get a good canal, and there are so many benefits that you can get by holding such a canal in your hands.

Compared with the benefits of the mountains and seas in the future, the temporary payment is nothing at all, without the current investment, how can there be a future harvest, therefore, for the governance of the Han River, Xia Nan will definitely continue, must be done.

If you want to do it, no matter what, in the final analysis, it is one word - money, and without money, you can't do anything.

The money accumulated before has been exhausted, all of which have been consumed in the conquest, and the war is indeed a very expensive job, and after several battles, the money has been exhausted.

After taking care of the Shark Gang, Xia Nan's first focus was not on population or anything else, but on money, and the most important thing was money.

The Shark Gang is still a relatively powerful gang on the Han River, and the strength of the gang is so strong that it is really a powerful gang, and among the many water bandit gangs on the Han River, they are among the best.

Such a powerful gang of water bandits does a lot of work, and after such a big job, they will inevitably be able to harvest a lot of money, and if they do a lot of work again and again, if the Shark Gang does not accumulate some wealth, no one will believe it.

Water bandits generally spend money lavishly, good ordinary people don't do it, they don't do it properly, they want to be water bandits, what is it for, it's definitely not to live a hard life, it must be to live a good life, to live a better life, and have more money.

is willing to go up the mountain and into the water, is willing to join the water bandit gang, and does this kind of illegal and criminal thing, it must be to live a good life, so after robbing the money, they often spend money lavishly and want to live a good life.

However, no matter how lavish the water bandits are, in a short period of time, thousands of dollars will be thrown away, and the money will be lost, but the Sharks, as a powerful gang, can do some big work, and they will definitely have some savings.

A powerful gang like the Shark Gang, the more powerful the bandit gang, the greater the possibility of having a lot of money, and the gangs that the Hanyang Gang eliminated before, the gangs that can harvest a lot of money, are also the more powerful gangs among the dozens of gangs.

Only the big gangs can still have a lot of savings after the consumption of mountains and seas, and the slightly smaller bandit gangs are a little worse, and many water bandits often squander their money after they get it, and it is difficult to leave much left.

Besides, the small gang of water bandits, when they are working, must not exceed their own limits, and cannot rob too large forces, otherwise, instead of grabbing things, they will fold themselves in it.

Only those big water bandit forces can not be taboo in meat and vegetables, no matter what kind of big fish, they dare to intervene, even if the Hou Mansion or the Guogong Mansion or something, they dare to do it.

In addition, they are all water bandit gangs operating on the Han River, and each must have its own territory, and even, some of the more powerful gangs are more domineering, and within their sphere of influence, other gangs need to pay tribute.

The Shark Gang is such a gang, in fact, with the strength and number of personnel of the Shark Gang, there is only a part of the territory that can be occupied on the Han River, which is not too large, and it is basically impossible to take down a large part of it.

In this era when it is not easy to do anything, especially the spread of news, it is not too fast, and in this case, a force that wants to control too many places cannot be mastered at all.

Then there is nothing to do, only to deter other water bandit gangs and make them pay tribute, which is what the Shark Gang does, there are many water bandit gangs under their hands, and their strength is not too strong.

In this way, waiting for tribute, the harvest must be a lot, and in this case, if there is no good harvest, it will be strange.

In Xia Nan's heart, the Shark Gang is a big gold mine, and in the Shark Gang, I don't know how many treasures are hidden and how much money is hidden, so Xia Nan is full of expectations for the Shark Gang.

is full of expectations for the Shark Gang, and under this full expectation, Xia Nan was waiting to harvest a lot of money, who would have thought that the Shark Gang's lair would be on fire.

The shark gang's lair was on fire, and the flames burned all at once, and the fire snake swallowed and rose to the sky, like a crazy flame, swaying wildly, producing a rolling wave.

After the flame was generated, in a short period of time, it quickly surged, and at an extremely rapid speed, it rose up at once, and the power of the flame was burning.

As soon as the flames were generated, Xia Nan's eyes were like a light bulb, almost filling up, and an angry emotion burned in Xia Nan's heart.

No wonder Xia Nan is very angry, at this time, it is not okay not to be angry, in Xia Nan's expectations, he was originally waiting for the money of the Shark Gang to fill the Hanyang Gang, but he didn't expect that he would wait for such an ending, so how could he not be angry.

After a year of fighting, the savings of the Hanyang Gang, which used to look at a lot of money, have all been exhausted, and there is not much left.

After that, Xia Nan still has a plate of plans, and under the planning of the whole plan, a lot of money is needed, as long as a lot of money is in hand, things can be carried out.

In the case that there is no longer too much money in his hands, Xia Nan can only think of getting some money from the Shark Gang, after the Shark Gang has been broken through just now, and the overall situation has been decided, a vigorous sense of joy has arisen at once.

It's no wonder that Xia Nan is so happy, it's not that Xia Nan hasn't seen the world, or he hasn't seen money, but it's really not good to lack money, if you want to do something, you must have money.

Money is such a thing, but without money, many things cannot be done, and even a strong country can do many things without money.

Some countries and dynasties in Chinese history, the Ming Dynasty is a typical example, how did such a powerful dynasty of the Ming Dynasty lose in the end, it was defeated by money.

At this time, Xia Nan was very short of money, really very short of money, and he didn't have much money in his hand at all, but in the case of many big things that couldn't be done, there was no money.

The thirst for money has really reached a limit, and at this time, if you can get a sum of money, you can get a lot of money, the Hanyang Gang can really get up.

At this very critical moment, the lair of the Hanyang Gang actually caught fire, and the surging flames were burning violently, as long as they waited a little longer, the flames would become more vigorous.

The surging flames were about to burn, how could Xia Nan let this kind of thing happen, with a shot, a strong palm, and slapped it down.

Many times, when Xia Nan made a move, he mostly started a war with his own force, fought with others, and produced a powerful power, but rarely used the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Martial artists above the Grandmaster Realm, as long as the strength is enough, as long as the combat strength is reached, as long as the realm is enough, they can attract the vitality of heaven and earth, and attract a part of the power between heaven and earth.

It is indeed not an easy thing to attract the vitality of heaven and earth, and it often requires a martial artist above the great grandmaster to do it, because a martial artist above the great grandmaster has already begun to have a yin god.

Heaven and earth vitality is a very powerful force, in the natural world, everywhere, this powerful power, is not a force that can take the initiative, but a relatively passive force.

Heaven and earth vitality is like a vast ocean, between heaven and earth, everywhere, if you want to attract such a powerful heaven and earth vitality, it is definitely not that easy, at least you have to cultivate to reach the great master realm, you can do it.

The Grandmaster Realm and the Innate Realm are a huge difference, among the two realms, the gap is really too big, under such a big gap, the martial artists of the Innate Gang Qi Realm are basically not the opponents of the Grandmaster Realm martial artists.

However, there are exceptions to everything, and it is precisely because the world is full of accidents that it has become colorful and incomprehensible.

A martial artist of the Innate Gang Qi Realm, under normal circumstances, is definitely not the opponent of a martial artist of the Grandmaster Realm, but if he encounters a strong person like Xia Nan, it is different, and he can fight beyond the level.

The existence that can fight beyond the level, its own strength is indeed strong to a certain level, and it is not so easy for such a powerful existence to do anything to him.

The gap between the innate realm and the grandmaster realm is huge, but the gap between the grandmaster realm and the great grandmaster realm is not small, and it is not smaller than the gap between the grandmaster realm and the innate realm.

Under such a huge gap, once a martial artist's cultivation enters the realm of a grandmaster, his cultivation and strength can be improved extremely quickly, and he can be improved steadily.

The martial artists of the Grandmaster Realm are indeed powerful, but the strength is not too powerful, and compared to the martial artists of the Great Grandmaster Realm, the gap is still not small.

The cultivation of the martial artist has reached the realm of the great grandmaster, and the Yin God has been nourished to a certain extent, and after being able to use it freely, he can get a great benefit, and his own strength can really climb steadily.

Cultivating to the realm of a great grandmaster alone will have a great benefit for the improvement of a martial artist's strength, but it is really not so easy to get a great transformation all at once.

However, when the martial artist cultivates the Yin God, Qingkang is completely different, the Yin God can produce a kind of control power, and it can attract the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth.

The power of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is really not small, as long as a part of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is triggered, the strength that the martial artist can produce can definitely reach a great extent, which can make the strength of the martial artist increase a lot at once.

Therefore, after cultivating to the realm of the Great Grandmaster, the gap in the strength of the martial artist is not small, and the gap between the martial artist of the Great Grandmaster realm who can attract the vitality of heaven and earth and the martial artist of the great grandmaster realm who does not attract the vitality of heaven and earth is still not small.

Xia Nan's strength is really good, his cultivation is in the grandmaster realm, but his combat power has reached the level of the great grandmaster realm, this kind of strength is really earth-shattering.

Under such a huge gap, it is not so easy for a martial artist who is also in the realm of a great grandmaster to distinguish the winner from the loser.

Xia Nan's combat power can indeed reach an extremely clever level, and he can reach the realm of a great grandmaster, but Xia Nan does not have a Yin God.

In the case of not being able to attract the Heaven and Earth Vitality, Xia Nan can fight with the martial artists of the Great Grandmaster Realm with his own combat strength, and it can be seen that his strength is very powerful.

Xia Nan couldn't trigger the vitality of heaven and earth, but the other person in the same company could, Wu Tianheng saw that the shark gang's lair was on fire, so he naturally couldn't turn a blind eye, and immediately, he made a strong move.

As soon as Wu Tianheng made a move, his figure immediately flew sideways, and on the palm of one hand, a great power was condensed, with an endless might, and it was photographed at once.

An incomparably powerful force erupted from Wu Tianheng's body, like a volcanic eruption, and it slapped down from Wu Tianheng's palm and slapped into the sky above the Shark Gang's building.

The building of the Shark Gang is a very dense building, and there is a place for the Shark Gang to hide gold, and I don't know how much wealth is hidden.

Such a place has been regarded by Xia Nan as his own territory, but now on his own territory, it will be on fire, and the raging flames will burn up all at once.

At this time, Wu Tianheng flew sideways, with an incomparably powerful force, and slapped it with one palm, and an amazing power burst out at this time.

Under this powerful force, ordinary people can't stop at all, Wu Tianheng's shot immediately triggered the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, drove the inexplicable power in the air, and suddenly produced an atmospheric pressure-like force, which fell downward.

As a stable master of the Great Grandmaster realm, Wu Tianheng's strength is indeed extremely strong, and more importantly, he has already comprehended the method of using the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, but it is only a preliminary comprehension.

In the underground underground dungeon of the Five Poisons Sect, it took thirty years for Wu Tianheng to be promoted to the realm of the Great Grandmaster, and his strength was further enhanced, but in the past thirty years, Wu Tianheng's strength has been suppressed, and it has not been brought into full play at all.

Being locked up in such a place, with all kinds of shackles stuck on his body, plus the people of the Five Poisons Sect gave him poison after a while, it is impossible to mobilize his own strength, and he has been in a depressed state, with an empty realm and cultivation, but it is useless, I have to say, this is very sad.
