A week later, the Glory City Lord’s Mansion, Wancheng, was holding a regular meeting!
He put down the document in his hand and looked at everyone sitting there!
"Is everything above true?"
Li Qian nodded.
"One hundred percent accurate! Many of the things in it were personally confirmed by our people!"
Wan Cheng laughed.
"If you put it this way, does it mean that we have all been taken advantage of by this guy this time?"
"Yes!"
Li Qian shook his head helplessly.
"He has gained a lot this time! Not only does he control the entire Tianshi City, he also controls the entire territory of Tianshi City! If you give him enough time to digest it all, and then give him enough time to develop and recover! By that time, we will be in really big trouble!"
"People from the Western Regions are warlike by nature! They also have congenital physical advantages! They should not be underestimated!"
"Hahaha!"
Wan Cheng suddenly laughed and clapped his hands in praise.
"This game of chess is played well, wonderfully! We haven't seen each other for many years, and this little brat is getting better and better! His calculations are really spot on! Awesome, awesome! Grow up! Grow up! He is no longer a child!"
Wan Cheng's words were full of joy, and no worries could be seen. Wang Henan couldn't sit still!
"City Lord, how long has this happened? You still have the heart to laugh! Think about what to do next! If this really makes him develop! He will definitely take revenge on us!"
"Why panic!"
Wan Cheng glanced at Wang Henan, taking his time.
"As for the process that Li Qian just mentioned, can it be done in a day, two days, or a year or two? Don't worry, he can't do it with me here!"
Li Qian frowned.
"But if Wang Xiao develops in Tianshi City, the methods we can use are really limited! After all, there is a big trouble like Jinxiu in the middle!"
Li Hui followed closely behind.
"That's right! Xu Xiu can not only restrict us, but also help Wang Xiao! City Lord, please don't take it lightly!"
Wancheng remained calm, but the conversation changed.
"By the way, how is the construction of the Splendid Shield going?"
The Shield of Jinxiu is located in the national border area on the east side of Jinxiu! It is an indestructible defense system! It can prevent all invading enemies!
"The main construction has been nearly 90% completed. To be more precise, the Splendid Shield is now ready to function!"
"Ninety percent?"
Wan Cheng was a little surprised.
"So fast? Where did he get the money?"
“It takes a whole nation!”
"Even with the efforts of the whole country, it is impossible to complete such a huge project in so many years, right?"
"It is said that Xu Xiu also borrowed a lot of money from the Tianxi Chamber of Commerce!"
"When he went to get a loan, the Tianxi Chamber of Commerce really loaned it to them?"
"It must have been given, and not less, otherwise, Xu Xiu wouldn't have had so much money to build the Splendid Shield!"
"It's Tianxi Chamber of Commerce again!"
Wang Henan did not hide his inner anger at all.
"If they hadn't helped Wang Xiao from the middle this time, how could Wang Xiao have taken Tianshi City? How could he have achieved such results? Jin Changzai, an old man like this, doesn't he know that we and Wang Xiao are hostile forces? He is Have you lived enough? City Lord, I think it’s time to give him some color!"
Wan Cheng glanced at Wang Henan and then at Li Hui.
"What do you think about this?"
Li Hui's eyes rolled around. The conversation changed.
"According to the latest news, Jinxiu has adopted Tianxi coins as its official currency!"
"I know this!"
Li Hui continued.
"This shows that Xu Xiu has handed over the economic power of Jinxiu to Jin Changzai!"
"In this way, the economic lifeline of all other cities in the world, except for the westernmost Tianlang City, is in the hands of the Tianxi Chamber of Commerce! Jin Changzai has become a veritable God of Wealth!"
"He can completely collapse the order of any city with just a flick of his hand! We can no longer afford to offend him!"
Wang Henan disagreed.
"What do you mean you can't afford to offend? Do you think we in Glory City have grown up eating vegetarian food these years?"
"That was not what I meant!"
Li Hui continued.
"In this current situation, unless we have the idea of die together and risk the entire Glory City! Otherwise, we will not be able to do anything to him!"
"If you risk it, just risk it. It's not like you haven't done it before!"
Wang Henan is extremely serious.
"Can we still be afraid of them?"
Li Hui shook his head firmly.
"Because I have done it before, I understand more clearly how harmful this matter is to us! The last time Glory City was almost completely destroyed by Han Tianyu, it has not slowed down after so many years! Our current overall economic level,
Among many cities, it is still in the lower reaches! The quality of life of ordinary people is not as good as before! Correspondingly, more and more people are lost! The city is no longer attractive, cannot attract investment, and the economy has declined seriously! The city's tax revenue is miserable
See! All the previous gold reserves have been almost used up! To put it bluntly, we actually have no money left! If we can't find a way to stop the decline! The people continue to be in dire straits, and over time, riots will definitely occur!
"
Every sentence and every word Li Hui said is fact.
"To be honest, we can no longer afford the research funding of the Guanghui Institute! We can no longer afford your military expenditures!"
When Wang Henan heard this, he immediately became anxious.
"Li Hui, don't try to trick me! Otherwise, if something goes wrong, neither of us will be able to afford it!"
Wang Henan also had something to say.
"The treatment of our military has long been worse than before! Many soldiers are dissatisfied for this! In addition, we force all soldiers to accept human body modification technology and "produce" special forces in a large-scale factory-style! There are even more complaints within the military.
! Some soldiers even have the idea of escape from Tianshi City! But some people actually take action! If you still want to reduce our military expenditures at this time, then I really can’t bear it! All the consequences, you
Come and bear it!”
"That's not all the trouble!"
Everyone looked at Li Qian, who continued.
"I have definite evidence here that many forces, including Han Tianyu, Chen Lingen, and even Jin Changzai, are taking advantage of the decline in the treatment of our soldiers to secretly bribe our soldiers! Many soldiers have been shaken!
"
In the current Glory City, Li Hui is in charge of the economy, Wang Henan is in charge of the military, and Li Qian is in charge of intelligence.
The three of them are the troika under Wan Cheng! The top figures in the power pyramid of Glory City!
Liu Qi is still the captain of the City Lord's Mansion garrison, responsible for the personal safety of Wancheng!
Yu Chenjing and Shuo Jin, one is the captain of the Wancheng Special Forces Team, and the other is the captain of the Wancheng Special Forces Team! The City Lord's Mansion garrison, as well as the Wancheng and Wanshen Special Forces Teams, are still the most powerful combat forces in the entire Glory City!
These three armies are directly under the jurisdiction of Wancheng!
The commander-in-chief of the three special forces is on the same level as Li Qian, but his subordinates have no other rights!
Nowadays, Wancheng, Wanshen, and the city lord's palace garrison have undergone earth-shaking changes from before!
Although the current Glory City Group Army is still called the Group Army in name, in fact, this group army only has four brigades!
The total size together is less than 30,000 people!
But all soldiers are special armed forces who have received human body modification technology!
The commander-in-chief of the group army is Wang Henan, and the deputy commander-in-chief is Lu Nianchuan!
The four subordinate brigade commanders are all the original leaders of Zhanfu. Jose is the commander of the first brigade, Li Hong is the commander of the second brigade, Chu Haonan is the commander of the third brigade, and Yan Tong is the commander of the fourth brigade. long!
This group army will hold a comprehensive assessment of considerable scale every year.
Only those with the best grades will be selected to join these three special forces!
One can imagine how terrifying the real strength of these three special forces today is!
Nowadays, although the overall strength of Glory City is no longer what it used to be! The economy is backward and very poor!
But the special armed forces of Glory City are the most powerful special armed forces in the world! This is also the key development direction that Wancheng has devoted all its efforts to for so many years! Looking at it now, it has indeed achieved excellent results! But it also took a lot of effort. A great price!
"Now Spider's funding is getting worse year by year! The treatment of our intelligence personnel is also not as good as before! In fact, many people within us also complain! If nothing changes! Maybe there will be deserters in our intelligence department!"
Li Qian's words made everyone in the conference room fall silent.
Obviously, if there were deserters at Wang Henan's place, it would only be a matter of a few deserters at most.
If there are deserters here in Li Qian, they may take away important information! They may also implicate other people on the intelligence line! Compared with Wang Henan's place, the harm is much more serious!
After a while, Li Qian broke the silence.
"Although we have developed our special armed forces to the extreme over the years, we have also become the object of covetous spying by all forces! Now there is such a saying outside! There is no ordinary soldier among the soldiers in Glory City! If anyone leaves, Glory City, you can make a fortune anywhere! I think we must change our development strategy. We can’t focus solely on developing weapons and building the army! We must focus more on economic development and construction! Only economic development Once you go up there, your treatment in all aspects will improve!"
"As the saying goes, money can make the world go round! But now that the brothers are too poor, it is inevitable that they will not be able to withstand the temptation! Especially many people are still raising families! There are seniors and juniors! He is alone. A strong will may not be able to withstand the vacillation of the whole family! So it will definitely not work if it continues like this! So Li Hui and I have the same view. At this time, we must not offend the Tianxi Chamber of Commerce! We must not provoke Jin Changzai!"
Maybe he found a channel to vent his anger. Li Hui adjusted his state and agreed.
"In the old Glory City, there was only one shiny area! Now the Glory City has almost turned into the previous shiny area! Look at those unfinished buildings! Those roads that lack maintenance! And more and more... The worse social security is! At this time, it would be great if Jin Changzai doesn't give us any tricks. We must not offend him! City Lord, if necessary, I suggest that you change someone to be in charge of the economy of Glory City. !My personal abilities are really limited!"
"This matter has nothing to do with you. No matter who you are, it will be the same. You may not be able to do it well!"
Wan Cheng's words can be regarded as reassurance for Li Hui. In fact, this is the fact. The fact that Guanghui City has reached this stage has nothing to do with Li Hui!
The person directly responsible is Wan Cheng!
After all, all the general directions and strategies were formulated by Wan Cheng!
But for Wan Cheng himself, it was really a helpless move!
After all, the general environment in the past few years was like that!
Want to survive in troubled times!
The barrel of the gun must be hard!
If you can't recruit soldiers, you have to find another way!
Otherwise, it is unknown whether Glory City can survive until now!
But Wan Cheng really didn’t expect that in just a few years, the general environment would undergo such earth-shaking changes!
