Chapter 1018: One Night, One Dawn
This has been preached so many times in advance, it can be called a warning.
Lei Ni said with shame: "Several farmhands sneaked there to collect the Emperor's Flowing Juice!"
She was too busy tonight, and someone started to make a small plan if she was careless.
"..." Choose a hurricane day to go to the rocky northwest end, have those people's heads been caught by the door?
The soul-catching mirror said strangely: "They deserve to die, but it's not a pity to die. Don't save them!"
Hey, will running to a deserted place collect more Emperor's Flowing Juice? It's a beautiful idea, but it ignores the storm outside!
"That's outside the barrier." He Lingchuan took a deep breath and said to the back, "Zhao Yibing, go and help save people."
He knew that this kind of thing would definitely happen. There are people with unclear minds everywhere, and they can't be stopped.
He Lingchuan was also helpless, but he was the owner of Soding Island, and he had to follow the principle of saving people if he could.
In dangerous areas, puppets have more advantages in performing tasks.
Zhao Yibing, a man from Rongshan, stepped out in response.
He waved his hand, and the three-headed golden puppets followed him and ran southwest.
He Lingchuan said to Lei Ni: "After the rescue, you will deal with it."
Lei Ni quickly responded with "Yes."
...
At the end of the hour of the Ox, the Emperor's Flowing Jiang ended.
There was no more spiritual rain in the sky, and the faint fragrance that aroused instincts also disappeared, and the enthusiasm of the creatures on the ground quickly faded.
People were busy carrying jars back to the house, and the guards were no longer on high alert.
Half an hour later, the dock and the passenger area returned to peace.
He Lingchuan finally had time to go into the house and drink some hot tea.
He stretched his waist, and his bones all crackled.
First fight, then showdown; first kill, then manage. This difficult night is finally over.
Leading a group of miscellaneous troops to take care of sea visitors from all over the world, haha.
The difficulty of him sitting in Yuheng City in the Panlong World and welcoming the Emperor's Flowing Jiang is not even one-tenth of tonight!
Several guards outside sat on the ground, not caring about the mud and footprints on the ground, and fell asleep with their heads tilted.
He Lingchuan said to Min Tianxi who had just entered the door:
"The passenger area must be patrolled as usual, be careful of theft, and don't let the work fail."
Next, it will enter the peak period of theft.
"Ah?" Min Tianxi heard it, and the foot that just crossed the threshold retracted, "Yes."
He Lingchuan saw him walking out, his shoulders were slumped.
However, Min Tianxi just walked a few feet and shouted to the opposite side: "Huang Zhao, Huang Zhao! Hey, you motherfucker, don't pretend not to hear, the master requires the passenger area to be patrolled as usual and be careful of theft! Still sitting, don't sit! Get up and follow me!"
After gulping down a few sips of hot tea, He Lingchuan also stood up.
The Soul-Capture Mirror said excitedly: "Should we find a formation to collect the spiritual juice?"
"Well, let's go."
He had long learned about the information about Emperor Liujiang from Narakutian's clone, and he had such a large territory, how could he miss the spiritual rain that fell on the Yangshan Islands?
He was short of manpower, but he had a better way:
Use the Soul-Inducing Formation.
He learned this formation from Yuheng City. Yuheng City used this formation to receive the spiritual rain in the suburbs, which had a large range and saved manpower and worry.
In the past month, part of the tens of thousands of taels of silver that Ding Zuodong spent on him was used to buy materials for the formation, and then He Lingchuan and Rongshan went to each island to set up the Soul-Inducing Formation.
When the spiritual rain arrived, as long as the person guarding the formation activated the formation, it would automatically collect it.
But this formation was not meant to collect everything without missing a single bit. He Lingchuan had done experiments in Yuheng City, and the Soul-Inducing Formation could only absorb 50% of the spiritual juice that fell from the sky at most.
The remaining 50% would still fall to the ground.
Panlong City tried hard to improve the formation, but it didn't work. Perhaps this is God's will, not to let humans take all the benefits at once, to let plants and trees also receive the blessings of God.
Of course, the formation is also affected by the hurricane, so He Lingchuan has to equip each formation with a barrier.
In short, he didn't expect the hurricane and the Emperor's Flowing Juice to come together, but all the work has been done in advance, and he can be orderly when the blessing and disaster come together.
Now that the Emperor's Flowing Juice is finally over, it is He Lingchuan's turn to welcome the harvest.
This is the reward he deserves!
…
A night of wind and rain cannot stop the dawn.
When Wang Xingyi stood under the corridor of the Jingshe to watch the rain, the hurricane had passed the Yangshan Islands and landed on the land west of Blade Harbor. The wind force has obviously weakened, but the Yangshan Islands are still within the radius of its wind circle, and it is still raining heavily, as if the sky is leaking.
Fang Canran came in from outside holding an oil-paper umbrella, and smiled when he saw him:
"Master, you got up really early, did you get enough rest?"
"I slept soundly while lying down and listening to the wind and rain." Wang Xingyi put some secret ointment in his palm, rubbed his hands dozens of times, and then pressed it on his temples. This is also a kind of secret practice that can quickly awaken the mind. "You went to the dock last night, what happened there?"
Fang Canran went to observe closely.
"It's okay, I went around a few times last night, nothing serious. The buildings are basically intact, and everyone looks a little tired."
Many people had red eyes. After a night of revelry, how can you not be tired?
"What about casualties?"
"A total of fourteen or fifteen people were injured in the dock and passenger flow area, but they were all minor injuries; I heard that people were rescued from the northwest end, and three people were also injured." Fang Canran closed his umbrella and stood in the corridor, "I haven't heard any news of death yet."
"Oh?" Wang Xingyi was a little surprised, "The hurricane and the emperor's flow came together, and there were less than twenty people injured on this island?"
Fang Canran told what he saw and heard last night, so Wang Xingyi knew that He Lingchuan had prepared for the Emperor Liujiang long ago.
But preparation is one thing, and actual operation is another.
Under extreme weather conditions, there are too many factors that are beyond human control. Not to mention the supply depot like Suo Ding Island where people come and go, even the elite military camp of Mou State has had soldiers fighting for the Emperor Liujiang and fighting to death.
Fang Canran recounted the situation he had inquired at the dock, and then said: "The detained tenants were very upset after they woke up, and some of them clamored to find He Xiao to complain. But I think most people are quite satisfied. Now the order of the supply depot has been restored, and it seems that there is no difference from yesterday."
"His group of guards, huh, the few I saw yesterday were either drooping their shoulders or leaning against the wall, standing without standing, with frivolous eyes, and they didn't look like they could fight a tough battle at first glance." Wang Xingyi was used to seeing the elite troops of Mou State, so how could he look down on this group of people? "How could He Xiao have handled last night with such a team?"
The troubles that Emperor Liujiang brings to managers are usually chaos and unrest. It's good enough that He Lingchuan's group of people didn't lose their composure when they encountered God Liujiang. How can you expect them to manage others and manage in an orderly manner?
Don't say it, it really worked.
"You have a keen eye. Brother He said that this escort team was formed by him conquering the pirates of Yangshan Islands and refugees from many places." Fang Canran smiled, "It has been less than ten days since they started training."
"Less than ten days?" Wang Xingyi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not laugh out loud, but was a little surprised, "How did he do it?"
"According to what I saw at the dock last night, it was nothing more than the words 'clear rules' and 'based on evidence'." Fang Canran said, "This escort team has nothing to do with the word elite, but He Xiao clearly told them what to do and what not to do, simple and clear. They just need to do it, and don't care about anything else."
"If you go to the battlefield, this certainly won't work. The battlefield situation changes rapidly, and there is no benefit in rigidly following the rules; but to deal with the passenger island under Emperor Liujiang, this is enough. He doesn't need to train these people to be elite immediately, as long as they are enough."
"Enough is good, you are right." Wang Xingyi nodded, "Knowing people and using them well is not bad."
What's so great about winning with elites? That's because the soldiers are good, not because you are good.
The most amazing thing about a good general is that he can adapt to the situation and the people, and use bad cards to play a big bomb.
Fang Canran smiled and said, "I went to buy something just now, and saw that the guards were still patrolling. Their spirits were different from before last night."
After a whole night of training, everyone has changed.
Wang Xingyi hummed, "It's interesting."
There are many smart people in Mouguo, so they are not rare.
But if you have the ability to plan, organize, and respond at the same time, you are a rare talent.
Fang Canran smiled and said, "Otherwise, how could he burn down half of the Heavenly Palace?"
He Xiao is not omniscient and omnipotent. It is impossible for him to calculate the personnel, measures, and reactions of the Heavenly Palace in place - no one can do it.
There must be countless twists and turns and dangers in the process of making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, but they were all resolved by him, so it seems to be easy and orderly.
The difficulties and obstacles in it are not worth telling to outsiders.
Fang Canran went further and said, "He has the same demeanor as you did when you were young."
This flattery made Wang Xingyi laugh and he enjoyed it very much: "Where is he?"
"It seems he went to other islands."
Wang Xingyi looked at the cape.
The sea was still windy and rainy. He Xiao was rushing out to sea at this time. Was he going to inspect other islands?
...
The sun was setting, and He Lingchuan returned to Soding Island.
As soon as he got ashore, Dong Rui asked him through the eyeball spider: "Hey, did you forget something?"
He Lingchuan asked casually: "What?"
He was tired for two days and didn't want to use his brain now.
"Didn't you ask Wanqi Feng to write a battle plan and a development plan last night?" Wow, these two titles are too difficult to pronounce, and Dong Rui always gets tongue-tied.
"Yes, has he finished it?"
He Lingchuan asked others to hand it in this morning, but he was too busy and only found some free time when the sun was about to set.
Dong Rui complained: "I wrote it, and wasted 17 or 18 pages! And he asked me what development planning is? Damn it, is he testing him or me?"
The key is that he didn't know.
"Anyway, come and receive it."
He Lingchuan walked towards the middle of Suo Ding Island: "Don't worry, I'll go and take a look."
"Bring me a box of peach cakes when you pass by the main street, I'm starving!"
Dong Rui's snail toad was hidden near Ding Lake. This place was originally planned to be the office area of Suo Ding Island, with dense vegetation and few people.
He released Wanqi Feng, and when the latter saw He Lingchuan, he hurried over to hand in the paper.
