469、The Covenant

Zhang Jinglin looked at the extraordinary man in front of him and smiled: "Do you have other abilities? What's your name?"

"My name is Xun Yeyu," said Bai Jing Fatty, "I have no other ability."

Zhang Jinglin nodded and said to Wang Fengyuan: "Send him to Fortress 178 to see if there are any other extraordinary people, but don't force them to do so. Just register their abilities and register them."

Xun Yeyu widened his eyes: "Is it just registered? Don't you control them to work hard for you?"

"Our Fortress 178 does not need to use a way to restrict others' personal freedom in exchange for strength," Zhang Jinglin smiled and said, "Live in Fortress 178 and don't participate in the war anymore."

As he said that, Zhang Jinglin asked someone to take Xun Yeyu away.

The barriers to the Zong family in the north are completely out of control. In fact, Zhang Jinglin knew that Zong Ying would leave, but he did not stop him.

If those troops resisted stubbornly in Wuchuan Mountain, it would lead to an increase in casualties in the 178 Fortress.

Now Zong Ying takes the initiative to leave with those troops. Once Zong Ying dies, it would be strange if the remaining troops are all ulterior motives and can organize effective resistance.

Some people simply occupied a barrier and wanted to become the masters of the barrier. However, as soon as the army of the 178 Fortress arrived, the will of these people immediately collapsed and surrendered and offered the barrier.

Everything they did was futile in the face of crushing strength.

178 Fortress has sent an extremely professional team to receive the barrier. This group of people has clear purpose and meticulous operation. They have cleaned the old ruling class in the barrier and are decisive in killing.

This is a long-standing policy, and the Fortress 178 has no time to be with these borers and make mistakes with snakes.

At this moment, the forces under Wang Shengzhi sent a delegation again to discuss matters with the 178 Fortress on opening up the lifeline of transportation.

I haven't discussed it in detail before, because Zhang Jinglin hasn't taken over the entire Northwest yet.

The power to which Wang Shengzhi belongs is extremely large in the Central Plains, and it is three-legged with the other two consortiums. The rest of the consortiums are mostly green leaves that accompany or are unintentional to expand.

So Wang Shengzhi told Zhang Jinglin last time that both sides had their own demands, and the 178 Fortress wanted resources from the Central Plains, and the same was true for the Central Plains, but their Wang family only talked with the forces who had completely mastered the northwest, otherwise it would be meaningless.

Wang Shengzhi rushed to the northwest, but it did not mean that he had to give up his principles.

Now that Zhang Jinglin has become the king of the North, everything can be discussed.

However, Zhang Jinglin smiled and said that he could not claim the name of the King of the North. A weak scholar could not afford such a name. But one day in the future, a new king would appear in this northwest, and even he was looking forward to it.

The representative of the Wang family was a little surprised. How could the so-called "a new king will appear one day in the future" sound like the language of an ancient tribe, and a bit feudal superstitious...

As a result, Zhang Jinglin smiled and said, "This is what a big fool here is, but I believe he will come back one day."

There are only a few points in the negotiation.

First, what types of minerals and resources are needed by Wang Shengzhi, how to price them, what resources are exchanged between the two parties, and how to collect tariffs.

The second is how to build a expressway from the northwest to the Central Plains and how to manage it. Wang Shengzhi’s side means that they come to build the road, whether it is a railway or a expressway.

But Zhang Jinglin rejected Wang Shengzhi's kindness and said that the northwest people should do it themselves. People in the northwest can build the northwest section and people in the Central Plains will not suffer any losses.

Third, Wang Shengzhi proposed that they send troops to encircle and suppress wild beasts in the wilderness to prevent these wild beasts from affecting traffic safety, but he was also rejected by Zhang Jinglin.

Seeing that the northwest was about to set up a train to the Central Plains, the generals of the 178 Fortress did not know if this was a good thing.

But Zhang Jinglin finally felt that being self-confidence and being in a corner was not a long-term way. If they had to face the enemy in the northwest, they were destined to absorb the resources they lacked to seek progress.

However, what surprised Zhang Jinglin was that Wang Shengzhi's sister, Wang Shengyin, was actually in the delegation.

Wang Shengyin was a little tired when she returned, but after she arrived at the 178 Fortress Command, she asked Ren Xiaosu intentionally or unintentionally why she didn't see Ren Xiaosu, whether she was injured, or whether she was killed or something.

Only then did she learn that Ren Xiaosu had done so many things in the north and then left without saying goodbye.

As for where Ren Xiaosu went, even the people from the 178 Fortress did not know.

Wang Shengyin seemed a little disappointed.

...

While the Wang family in the Central Plains came, Luo Lan actually came to the north on behalf of the Qing family. His trip was to negotiate the alliance between the two sides.

Luo Lan's intention is very clear: both sides are friendly and neighboring, and do not violate the rivers, and jointly prevent the Central Plains.

The implication is to treat the Central Plains as an imaginary enemy to prevent the Central Plains from plotting against the southwest and northwest.

Of course, the generals of the 178 Fortress also had controversy over this matter: "The Qing family's ambition is too great. Now they are busy accepting the barriers of the Li family and Yang family, so they cannot make any moves. If we live in peace with them now and when they raise their troops again in the future, what should we do?"

"Yes, I heard that the experimental subjects in the south are enough for them to have a headache. After the Qing family's main force conquered the front line of Ziyang, they immediately turned around and went to the south. Therefore, the Qing family has no strength to deal with us now, so they said they want to live in peace."

Zhang Jinglin looked at them and said, "I have decided to sign an alliance with the Qing family, but there is one thing I want to refuse. The Qing family cannot be allowed to build a railway and connect with us."

Wang Fengyuan whispered: "Commander, what everyone said is actually reasonable."

Zhang Jinglin sighed and said, "When fighting again, isn't the situation of Qing's family the same? If the fight starts again, the main force of Qing's family must immediately move to the north, and then the south will become a paradise for experimental subjects. How many people will die at that time?"

Wang Fengyuan understood that Zhang Jinglin's meaning was to let Qing's heart relieve the experimental subject before talking about it.

This is the most important thing.

"What else does that Fatty Luo have to do?" Zhang Jinglin asked.

"And it's right, he wants to find Ren Xiaosu," Wang Fengyuan said: "I have told him that Ren Xiaosu has left."

A general next to him muttered, "Why are they all here to find Ren Xiaosu? It's so strange..."

Half a month later, the Sharp Knife Company was the first to return to Fort 178. When entering the fortress, the residents of the fortress welcomed each other in the corridor, and someone held a red banner with the words "Welcome the fighting heroes home".

Zhang Xiaoman was wearing the Nebula Medal on his chest, which was the highest honor of the 178 Fortress.

The road was full of joy, with children following behind their personnel carriers cheering, aunts stuffing the whole basket of eggs into their car, and fortress goddess Lu Yao and the art troupe held an art party for these triumphant soldiers.

When Lu Yao saw them, she also asked which one was Ren Xiaosu. As a result, Zhang Xiaoman and others were confused and didn't know how to answer.

Looking at the fortress that cheered like the sea, Zhang Xiaoman really hoped that Ren Xiaosu could also enjoy this honor with them.

This honor was brought to them by Ren Xiaosu.

There is another Nebula medal in Zhang Xiaoman's arms, which belongs to Ren Xiaosu and is now temporarily kept by him.

Zhang Xiaoman always felt that the boy would come back here one day, and then he would bring Ren Xiaosu the Nebula Medal with himself.
