Fire Monster

Chapter 144 The End
Xiao Chengyun is the king bomb.

So after she explained the matter clearly, Zhao Guanshan didn't even need to say a single punctuation mark, and the matter could be concluded.

The marching captain sent by the Demon Suppression Division quickly made relevant records and asked Xiao Chengyun to put his seal on them. He then bowed and said, "The investigation of the Demon Suppression Division into the fighting incident has been completed, but the specific handling of this matter will be decided by the higher-ups. I think they will not wrongly accuse a good person or let a bad person go. There will definitely be corresponding compensation. Farewell."

After saying that, he went straight back to the first-level Imperially Sealed Chariot without even asking where the third-level Imperially Sealed Chariot had gone. It was obvious that a preliminary consensus had already been reached within the Demon Suppression Division.

After all, the fighting occurred shortly after the Second Pioneer Battalion returned the tanks. No one is a fool and it is easy to guess.

Especially since the Shanhai Camp left the troop mobilization documents here, whether it likes it or not, the Demon Suppression Division must now declare that the Second Pioneer Camp is legal, just, and innocent.

If you, the Chief Secretary, want to order the handover, that’s fine, just send troops to do it.

The Demon Suppression Division is currently fighting the evil demons on the front lines and has no time to get involved in these matters.

This is the attitude. You, the Chief Secretary, can handle it as you wish.

Therefore, at this moment, only Huang Yun, the special envoy of the Governor's Office, was left. He also made a quick note, then used his seal to point at the two chariots next to him.

"I have no say on how to characterize the fighting. The higher-ups will make the final decision. But one thing is clear: you, the Second Development Camp, have no right or qualification to use these two imperially-sealed chariots. Now, in the name of the Third Seal Holder of the Provincial Government, I order you to return these two chariots."

"Sorry, I didn't hear you clearly, what are you talking about?"

Xiao Chengyun tilted his head and looked at the special envoy Huang Yun, as if she was not a Qi Refiner, but clearly a street thug who was playing tricks.

"General Xiao, I advise you to respect yourself!"

"I can consider the gunfight as legitimate defense, which is understandable, but the seizure of the imperial chariot that originally belonged to the governor is a clear fact and cannot be refuted. Are you trying to rebel?"

Special envoy Huang Yun said sternly, "That's right, the Governor General is too short of manpower to reap the benefits now, but the two imperially-stamped chariots purchased with the Governor General's money must be taken back."

"What a great authority! You want to kill people with just one accusation. Is that how you, the governor, do things? How do you say that so many people from our Second Reconstruction Battalion died in the battle? How do you say that we are defending here, but even the city wall has been blown down?"

"You don't have a chariot, but you only have one life. Do you dare to come and take it?"

"Humph! That's unreasonable. I advise you to take care of yourself!"

Special envoy Huang Yun stopped talking, he had figured out that the soldiers in the Second Pioneer Camp had become smarter now, instead of coming out themselves, they bewitched a Qi Refiner to be a shield, and then they just rolled around and made a scene and were used as a rolling stock. This trick was indeed difficult to deal with.

But do you really think that this will solve the problem once and for all?
The Chief Secretary is responsible for your logistics!
When the war is over, let’s see how rampant you can still be.

The first-level imperially-sealed chariot was restarted. Li Hu, the marching captain of the Demon Suppression Division, and Huang Yun, the special envoy of the Provincial Government, left, but the Five Spirits Train remained.

Including those forty soldiers.

A Taoist monk with a single seal stepped forward and shouted:

"The 29th Reserve Squadron of the Mountain and Sea Camp of the 9th Brigade of the Northern Camp of the Demon Suppression Division reports for duty. Please show us the troop transfer documents!"

This time, it was Zhao Guanshan who stepped forward, took out the troop mobilization document and handed it to the other party. After the other party used his identity badge to seal it, the troop mobilization document instantly turned into a ball of flame and burned to ashes.

This also means that this executive order has completed the entire closed loop and can be officially implemented.

At that moment, the Taoist monk with the single seal bowed to Zhao Guanshan.

He also bowed to Xiao Chengyun from a distance.

"The 29th reserve squad of the Shanhai Camp, led by Captain Xu Ming, is on standby with his 39 martial arts apprentices. From this moment on, all of our soldiers will accept the command and dispatch of your commander Liu Yuwei. Our daily consumption needs will be provided by ourselves. The camp where we live will be centered on this Five Spirits Train. Within a radius of 50 meters, no soldier will leave this area without orders."

"Now, please guide us into the stationing area."

It's really very methodical.

I guess the Demon Suppression Division also gave instructions not to get involved in muddy waters.

But Xu Ming is really an acquaintance.

Of course, Zhao Guanshan was not stupid enough to chat with Xu Ming in public. He turned around and waved to Sun Zei, who stepped forward to guide the team of soldiers, which were mostly rookies, into the small town.

They had almost no combat effectiveness, which was obviously a perfunctory response from the Shanhai Camp. But it didn't matter. What Zhao Guanshan wanted was procedural justice.

At this time, Deng Jiu, Wang Chen, Yu Che and others also got off the chariot, said hello to Zhao Guanshan, and then rushed away. Today's mission was still to destroy all the demon mother's nests in the area, so there was no delay.

"This time, our Second Pioneer Camp has survived this disaster, right? I guess the Demon Suppression Department will issue a decision soon. They don't mind us staying here. The Governor's Office may delay, but it won't cause too serious consequences."

"The only thing we need to worry about now is that the Governor's Office will definitely hold up our logistics and supplies. Commander Liu said yesterday that our logistics and supplies are only enough to last for two or three months. Brother, have you thought about how to deal with it?" Xiao Chengyun asked beside Zhao Guanshan. She saw things very clearly.

"Well, first of all, we must build the first-level spirit-supplying tower. I will need Junior Sister's help in this regard."

"Of course. From now on, I have offended the Chief Secretary and the Demon Suppression Department. The Chief Secretary is still okay, but if I go to the Demon Suppression Department, I might be ambushed. Anyway, Brother, you have to take care of me from now on."

Xiao Chengyun pretended to be melancholy and said that in fact, her hard work just now could be considered a token of her allegiance.

She has put all kinds of thought into testing and evaluating Zhao Guanshan's character, so I have to show sincerity as well, otherwise what would that mean, a blood-sucking military supervisor?
She always has to prove her worth.

That's why she went all out, even at the cost of offending the Demon Suppression Division and the Provincial Administration Division, just to be completely tied to Zhao Guanshan's boat.

If there was only Zhao Guanshan on the boat before, she wouldn't be in such a situation. But now that Liu Yuwei is added, she is really worth tying up!

There are only two spots left to form a five-element team.

"Of course. This time, thanks to your help, Junior Sister, I and all the brothers in the Second Pioneer Camp have to thank you."

Zhao Guanshan said with a smile, this kind of polite words has different effects in front of different people.

"No, no, I just said something. But you, my brother, have paid so much to save me that I can't help but want to pledge my love to you."

Xiao Chengyun looks so shy, what a pretentious little devil.

The two of them praised each other in this way until they were completely satisfied, and thus reached a strategic partnership, becoming true family members.

At this point, we quickly get to the point.

"Brother, I have three suggestions, and I hope you will adopt them all."

"First, don't even think about building a first-level spirit supply tower. Look, a large section of the city wall has collapsed. You can't rebuild it within two months. So why not secretly dig a hole and build a small, simple spirit supply tower structure to ensure that 5,000 energy storage spirit stones are produced every day to maintain normal needs."

"Second, select forty qualified elite veterans and conduct intensive training. Replace each person's psychic weapon with a Xin-level spiritual supply array, and then infuse the weapon with spirits, so that they are fully armed."

"Third, we will apply to the Demon Suppression Division as friendly forces and be allowed to fight on the front lines. We will be responsible for our own profits and losses. We only have one request: give us the same merits, or even half of them. We have to find a way to exchange them for the Imperial Sealed Artifacts for you, me, and Senior Sister Yuwei."

"When the time comes, the three of us will do something. You know what I mean, right? We will be invincible!"

Xiao Chengyun was so excited by what she said.

But Zhao Guanshan directly rejected it.

"no!"

"why?"

"We must have our own base, a self-sufficient city. I don't trust the Demon Suppression Department or the Chief Secretary. Also, we can't do anything illegal."

"But do you know, brother? Based on the experience of seven years ago, this war will be over in a month at most. Once the war is over and the Chief Secretary is free, do you really think that he will be unable to deal with us? Do you really want to wrestle with the Chief Secretary? If we don't take this opportunity to improve our real competitiveness, we will have no chance in the future."

But Zhao Guanshan still shook his head.

"I still stick to my opinion. We should build a level one spirit supply tower first, then train an elite team, relying on two imperial seal chariots to ensure both offensive and defensive capabilities. At the same time, based on the level one spirit supply tower, we should open up farmland and build workshops in the city to strive for self-sufficiency. This is also our only chance, and I will not give up on anyone."

"Okay, you are my senior brother, you have the final say, but I have to reserve my opinion." Xiao Chengyun was a little annoyed, but finally chose to accept it.

"Okay, if I can't improve the situation within three months, it will prove that I am dreaming. Then you will be the boss and I can call you senior sister, how about that?" Zhao Guanshan said half-jokingly.

"If you listen to me now, I'll have no problem calling you my senior brother for the rest of my life." Xiao Chengyun said resentfully. What else could she do? She was just a poor person now.

Zhao Guanshan laughed and said nothing more. He started to work directly, repairing the collapsed city wall. Although Xiao Chengyun was full of resentment, he worked diligently and came forward to help.

Over there, Sun Ze wanted to bring people to help, but was directly rejected by the two.

Sun Zei was very curious and puzzled, "Brother Zhao, can we not even do rough work now?"

"Brother Sun, this is really not rough work. The construction of this city wall is a science. So, you lead the people to demolish the barracks in the city, about 30% at first. Be careful not to damage the stone, wood, and rune spikes inside."

"Forget it, you better stop moving. I'll take it down myself."
