My Monster Fuses Everything

Chapter 357: 293 Suppression

Chapter 357: Chapter 293 Suppression

By the time Su Han dragged Nie Lin out, Zhang Zhengguo and the others had already assembled the combat personnel and were waiting outside the door.

They saw that Nie Lin was almost being dragged out, looking like a dead dog, which made their eyelids twitch involuntarily. Even a Third Order was being treated this way?

“What’s this about?”

It had only been a moment, but everyone was fully armed, to Su Han’s genuine surprise.

“Nie Lin and the others have been captured. Even if Wang Lihu can’t immediately confirm what has happened, he will eventually find clues.”

Su Han smiled and said, “What, do you plan to wage war against them with just this group of people?”

He wasn’t underestimating Zhang Zhengguo; the fighting force they could muster was at most a hundred people at best, and their strength was uneven.

Su Han didn’t think that Zhang Zhengguo’s confidence originated from him, considering he had not informed Zhang Zhengguo about his own strength.

“There are Third Order monsters in the industrial park; we plan to throw them near there and make it look like a monster attack.”

“Quite the agile thinker.”

Su Han praised before saying, “Too much trouble, and it’s unrealistic. Disperse the group, and you, come with me to the West Mountain Villa area.”

“What?”

Zhang Zhengguo revealed a look of astonishment, thinking he might have heard wrong.

“…They have almost ten thousand men, and both Wang Lihu and Zhou Ge are Third Order…”

“I don’t repeat myself, this is your opportunity.”

Su Han’s calm gaze rested on Zhang Zhengguo. Technically, considering the care Zhang Zhengguo had provided for Gan Xinglei’s parents and in-laws, along with guiding him to find them, he deserved a proper reward.

But now, having observed how Zhang Zhengguo handled matters, Su Han felt he could provide him with an even better opportunity.

Zhang Zhengguo’s face slightly changed, as he didn’t know what kind of opportunity Su Han was referring to.

“Old Zhang.”

Qin Lihong called out quietly; he felt it was better not to take risks with Su Han.

However, having witnessed Su Han’s capabilities, Zhang Zhengguo suddenly felt that missing this opportunity would lead to lifelong regret.

“Alright.”

Zhang Zhengguo raised his head, his expression uncharacteristically serious; they had never had a way out.

Thump

Su Han threw Nie Lin in front of Qin Lihong and then said, “I’ve just medicated him, he won’t wake up for a day or two, so keep him confined without worry.”

Without a storage space, Su Han had brought few items with him to Huiyuan City, but he had brought several vials of anesthetic toxin just in case.

The Book of Blood Spirit in his left hand emitted a red glow, and then he summoned the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon. Its huge body obscured the sky, causing Qin Lihong and the others to reveal terrified expressions.

“Let’s go.”

He grabbed Zhang Zhengguo and then mounted the back of the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon, disappearing into the mist at high speed.

Zhang Zhengguo was still in shock, but he was quickly asked by Su Han to guide the way, and the two men and one dragon rapidly approached the West Mountain Villa area.

…

In the West Mountain Villa area, inside the most central villa

“Boss Wang, attacking the spatial rift mainly relies on Third Order Apostles. Gathering more people will do little more than provide cannon fodder; surely you’re not thinking of sending them to their deaths?”

Li Qiulong looked at Wang Lihu, who was sitting on the sofa, his eyes flickering. If that were truly the case, he would need to reconsider their cooperation.

Subjugating other camps was easy; as long as the threat of military force remained and people were given a chance to live, benevolence and severity could be exerted to maintain control.

But to force people to their deaths, even if it led to a temporary advantage, would ultimately incite rebellion.

“Don’t worry, Li Qiulong, these people are not mere cannon fodder. On the contrary, I might not even put them in the front lines this time.”

“Oh?”

Li Qiulong let out a light exclamation, his expression puzzled.

“What do you mean?”

A shadow of darkness crossed Wang Lihu’s stern face: “The Armed Forces from Linshui City have already extended their reach here. A single battalion has a Third Order Contractor, and with those cannons, do you think if they get a solid foothold, there would still be room for us?”

Li Qiulong’s expression also grew solemn; the arrival of Linshui City’s Armed Forces was an important reason for his agreement to join forces.

After all, he didn’t want anyone or any power to restrict him.

Nobles and generals, would they rather be seeds or plants?

Having climbed up from the chaos and apocalypse, he certainly did not want to lose what he now had and revert to being a sales clerk.

“We’ve all got a fair amount of blood on our hands, and we’ve killed our share of officials; we all know this, no need to say it outright.”

Wang Lihu steered the conversation; they were all aware of where their firearms had come from.

“We can’t directly confront the Armed Forces, but that doesn’t mean we can’t stall them.”

Wang Lihu was clear-headed as he said, “We don’t just want to capture the rift at Xiaoyue Lake and secure more resources; we also want to pre-emptively drive back Linshui City’s Armed Forces and foil their plans. As our Contractors’ strengths grow stronger and the relevance of guns and cannons reduce, then nobody can take away the status of Huiyuan City.”

Li Qiulong frowned; the plan was doubtlessly correct, but what did this have to do with conscription?

“What does this have to do with conscription?”

A barely detectable look of contempt flashed in Wang Lihu’s eyes; this Li Qiulong truly was a fool, but such people were easier to control.

“Recruit people into the fold, involve them in cooperative fighting, share the benefits, and then slowly assimilate them. When the time is right, natural expansion will occur.”

Wang Lihu certainly had his plans, and Li Qiulong finally understood the great man’s scheme before him. Just as he was about to speak, a bustle of noisy voices came.
