Behind me is the earth

Chapter 348 346. The independent group appears

The independent regiment has 3,000 people and is organized in the 301st Division. It is usually stationed outside Qifeng County. However, it is generally not responsible for guarding the security of the provincial capital. Created to support rapid response forces everywhere.

As a quick reaction force, the Independent Regiment is not only equipped with the firearms and weapons that Ren Pingsheng brought back from the arsenal of drug lords in northern Myanmar on Earth, but is also equipped with a large number of off-road motorcycles, off-road trucks, off-road pickup trucks, etc.

In order to cover up the reason for purchasing these vehicles, Ren Pingsheng even set up a logistics company on Earth.

It can be said that the Independent Regiment is the first truly mechanized force in the world.

In the future, if a new mechanized force is formed, I am afraid that it will have to wait until Yile County can independently manufacture these vehicles.

"Bring the fuel and check the vehicle status."

"This time when I go to Wanzhou, I must show off my energy!"

"The Army Commander has an order. If a battle breaks out, we must show military might, momentum, and win the battle!"

Independent regiment instructors shuttled from platoon to platoon.

The boys in the group are all very energetic.

Different from ordinary troops, they have completely changed into Chongqing 17-style military uniforms. The black armor is still composed of dual-proof materials as before. The lower body is made of black training pants made of stab-proof material. The feet are wearing hard-soled leather boots, and the head is Above is a black composite helmet and a dust-proof and gas-proof skull mask made of fiber.

The equipment looks clean and tidy. When the square formation is assembled, the darkness looks very impactful!

Paired with the skull mask, it looks more like a group of life-seeking ghosts from the underworld! It gives people an extremely terrifying sense of oppression.

If they encounter the thieves from the new barracks and cannon fodder camp in Beiwan, the Independent Regiment might just make an appearance and scare them into dispersing and fleeing without firing a single shot!

"boom!"

The accelerator roared. When Qin Yu arrived at the camp of the Independent Regiment and saw this army ready to go, he was immediately stunned!

Seeing those heavily armed soldiers, who looked like life-seeking ghost armies crawling out of the underworld, made my scalp numb with fear.

"Miss, let's get in the car."

A muscular maid said to Qin Yu.

When she left this time, Xiaowan gave her ten maids, all of whom were tall, strong, and round-waisted, and all of them had practiced wrestling and fighting. Two of the eldest maids were also warriors with Ming Jin cultivation. Just standing there, like a wall, gives people full pressure.

With these maids by her side, Qin Yu returned to the Wen Mansion, and it would be difficult for anyone who wanted to bully her!

Qin Yu had no idea. He listened to the arrangements of the people around him and got into a pickup truck.

The driver turned the key, and the vehicle shook and the ignition roared.

These vehicles do not have fancy navigation, screens or other things that are not needed in other worlds. They are only equipped with radio communication systems.

"Set off!"

An order came over the intercom.

With a roar, hundreds of cars and more than 500 off-road motorcycles from the Independent Regiment drove out of the camp and headed towards the road.

The mighty convoy and the elite soldiers of the independent regiment immediately attracted countless eyes.

Not to mention that the Independent Regiment went all the way west, shocking countless passers-by.

In Qifeng County, the great eunuch Li Fugui traveled across mountains and rivers to visit again.

"Every time I come to Wuzhou, I see new changes. Wuzhou Province is developing so fast!"

After disembarking at Dongyang County Pier this time, we took a carriage from the highway to Hukou Town Railway Station, and then all the way to Fengxi County Railway Station. After leaving the station, we rested for the night and continued to transfer to the carriage on the wide cement road. , all the way to Qifeng County!

The journey from Dongyang County to Qifeng County, nearly three thousand miles, actually took less than ten days!

After arriving in Qifeng County, he couldn't recognize the county that had been expanded several times due to extensive construction work.

Especially the tall buildings that seem to reach the sky are even more shocking.

Even the Baiyun Temple Pagoda, the tallest in Jingzhou, is not so tall!

Until he entered the old county town, he was still thinking about how these tall buildings were built, why there was no wooden structure, and what they would be used for after they were built.

After the mission entered the old county, Li Fugui saw some of the old appearance of Qifeng County on Anmin Street and Wendeng Street.

When he visited Prince Qi's mansion, he learned that the prince was not in the mansion.

After waiting for more than four hours, it was in the evening that I saw Ren Pingsheng.

"Meet His Highness King Qi!"

As soon as Ren Pingsheng entered the palace, Li Fugui quickly stood up and saluted.

"Eunuch Li, there is no need to be too polite. I went out today, but I kept your father-in-law waiting for a long time."

Ren Pingsheng said and sat down on the main seat.

"This year's summer grain will be harvested soon. Is your father-in-law here to collect summer grain?"

Ren Pingsheng guessed.

"What your Highness said is true. Now that the summer grain harvest is coming soon in the southern provinces, His Majesty is always worried about the matter of collecting grain, so he sent me to bring people here to collect taxes and grain."

Li Fugui said with a wry smile.

Ren Pingsheng understood the reason all too well. It was simply that the influence of the Dajing imperial court in the south was gradually weakening, and many taxes could not be collected. Instead, local officials used the guise of taxation to amass money. This led to widespread complaints among the people, and at the same time left no money to be collected. The Dajing court suffered a lot of infamy.

Although the southern provinces have not yet separated from the rule of the Dajing court in name, they have actually become separated from each other.

Except for a few officials who were loyal to the imperial court, no one really cared about the imperial court.

According to the reports from the strongholds of the Shenjian Division and the Night Cat Organization in the River Valley Province, Pingshan Province and other places, although there is no major chaos in the south, there are constant small rebellions formed by the people who cannot survive. It's just that the clan power in the south is stronger, and these rebellions were quickly suppressed after recruiting troops.

"Your Highness, during our trip, in addition to harvesting summer grain, Your Majesty also entrusted me and the prince to purchase firearms for our use."

Li Fugui said: "Today, the Lurte people, Jin people, and Hagenta people in the north have annexed each other in successive years of war. At the beginning of the year, the Daru dynasty led by the Lurte people was established. Since the beginning of this year, they have fought more than a dozen tough battles in Humen Pass, Daoziguan, Baidi City, and Wacheng, resulting in heavy losses.

If General Wang Zhen hadn't led his army northward, perhaps Daru's army might have reached Jingzhou. "

After several contacts, Li Fugui knew Ren Pingsheng's attitude towards foreigners, so he focused on the threat of foreigners to the court.

Seeing Ren Pingsheng pondering, Li Fugui continued: "Although the court's money is stretched thin, when I came, His Majesty had promised that as long as the prince is willing to sell, the price can be negotiated."

Ren Pingsheng shook his head and said: "I am not thinking about whether firearms can be sold, but after the army uses firearms, it is more about the strength of productivity and the strength of logistics. The imperial army is currently unable to do anything in terms of production or logistics. satisfy.

Well, Wuzhou now still has a batch of flintlock guns, the specific number is about 50,000. These guns only need to use black powder and lead bullets, and they should be able to handle the military battles of the imperial court.

However, I don’t want money. "

Ren has never been short of money in his life. With the rapid increase in productivity, there are agricultural taxes, commercial taxes, customs duties and other taxes, the income of state-owned enterprises such as Qixing Company, and a large number of deposits in banks, it is time to be short of money. Bonds can also be issued to increase the fiscal deficit.

It would be a good option to use the flintlock guns replaced by this batch of militia battalions and exchange them for some technologies that can be used by today's poor court.

"Your Highness, please tell me."

Li Fugui didn't think so much, the sophisticated flintlock gun was enough.

The flintlock muskets manufactured by the Bingzhan Bureau were inefficient, easy to explode, had short range, and had poor power. He has seen the flintlock guns produced in Wuzhou, with a range of two to three hundred meters. The three-stage shooting is extremely powerful and can easily penetrate iron armor. For the Daru army with a large number of cavalry, it is extremely powerful. The restraint effect!

If you can bring back these 50,000 flintlock muskets, Your Majesty will definitely be satisfied.

"I want the method of making the Dragon Sword."

Ren Shengsheng has already seen the power of the Wandering Dragon Sword, and it is not only capable of being manipulated by strangers, but also by those with strong mental strength. It is a weapon that can equal a thousand!

"this······"

Ever since the Youlongjian showed its power on the battlefield in Zhongzhou, the imperial court and Emperor Chongqing had taken it seriously and treated it as a sacred weapon for ruling the country.

Although the King of Qi has a friendly relationship with the imperial court, he is still a warlord in a separatist region. Giving the country's artifact to another party is no different from staking the enemy!

Li Fugui cannot make the decision.

"My father-in-law can report it to the emperor and see what the emperor and the court say."

Ren Pingsheng picked up the teacup and blew on the hot air in the teacup.

Seeing this, Li Fugui stood up and said, "Then let's leave now and I'll reply to the prince soon."

"Well, go ahead."

Ren Pingsheng nodded and watched Li Fugui leave the hall.

Li Fugui and his party were arranged to stay at Qixing Inn, which is located in Kaiyunfang opposite the Wang Mansion.

Behind Qixing Inn, there are more than a dozen courtyards, all prepared for distinguished guests. After returning to the courtyard, Li Fugui quickly wrote a memorial, sealed it, put it into a bamboo tube, tied it to the leg of the blue-eyed eagle, and let it fly out.

At this time, it was already a bright moon in the sky. Bai Chuchu was floating and lying in the sky shrouded in clouds and mist. Looking at the full moon in the sky, Bai Chuchu was in a daze and thought about something. He happened to see the blue-eyed eagle flying away. Out of curiosity, he immediately headed towards The blue-eyed eagle chased after him.

"Chu Chu, don't worry about it."

Chu Chu, who was flying quickly in the clouds and mist, suddenly heard the prince's words.

"ah?"

She was a little surprised.

But the prince stopped paying attention to her.

Ren Pingsheng was sitting cross-legged at this time, and the incense in the room lit up the light smoke, surging in the air with his breathing.

The cultivation speed of Zhenqi is very slow. Even with the support of many heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the speed of cultivation will inevitably slow down.

The same is true for the practice of supernormal abilities. New breakthroughs have not been achieved for a long time.

He spread out his telekinesis power, covering the entire Qifeng County, and he was aware of any disturbance.

But just like when the eyes scan the objects within the field of vision, they only focus on a few things, but cannot reflect everything in the field of vision in the mind. The same is true for mental observation. When you focus on where you focus, things there will become clearer.

The more carefully you notice and the more things you focus on, the faster your mental energy is consumed. And during the consumption and recovery of mental power, a certain amount of growth will be achieved. This aspect is the same as fitness exercises. The visualization pictures, concentration incense, etc. are like supplementing protein, helping the muscles to expand even more.

A gust of wind blew by, making it even colder in the sky.

Chu Chu couldn't help but shudder.

"What are you thinking about?"

Ruan Tang's sleeves fluttered into the air. Facing the huge silver moon in the sky, she looked like Chang'e flying to the moon. The silver moonlight shone on her delicate and beautiful face. This scene instantly attracted Ren Pingsheng's thoughts. All the attention within the range formed a beautiful picture in his mind.

"Sister, when the moon first rose, I vaguely saw a black diamond-shaped shadow looming through the clouds. I chased it to see what was going on, but after flying into the air, I couldn't find it.

I also saw thousands of lights on the ground below and thought it was so beautiful, so I watched the scenery for a while. "

Chu Chu saw Ruan Tang flying to her side and stopped, and said to Ruan Tang.

Ruan Tang also floated and hovered in the air. The ring in her hand flashed, and a black cloak appeared in her hand and was draped on Chu Chu.

"Thank you sister."

Chu Chu tightly wrapped her cloak and thanked her with a smile.

"I used to be a little afraid of heights, but since I can fly, this feeling has disappeared on its own."

Ruan Tang looked down at the earth, his dark eyes shining with the luster of the silver moon.

Although she and Chu Chu both control electromagnetic force, her abilities are obviously wider than Chu Chu's, or at a higher level. After she studied Chu Chu's flying abilities, she could also control the electromagnetic force to make herself fly.

The potential of superpowers is also different.

"It's cold out here, let's go down first."

Ruan Tang saw Chu Chu. Even though she was wrapped in a big cloak, her nose was blown red by the cold wind.

"Um."

Chu Chu nodded at her, and the two held hands and walked towards the palace.

Before he fell down, he saw Taoist Priest Qingyuan carrying the magic sword on his back, standing on the dragon's kiss on the roof of Min'an Hall, looking this way.

When he saw the two of them, he said, "I just felt something during my practice, so I came out to check. It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Well, I'm disturbing Taoist Priest Qingxiu."

Ruan Tang said with a smile.

She was happy that Taoist Priest Qingyuan called her princess.

"snort!"

Xiaowan, who was lying in the courtyard of Qixingtang like a salted fish, also heard this movement and snorted in her heart.

But she didn't speak.

She felt that she was now the young master's woman, and she was very satisfied.

"As long as the young master treats me well, it is enough. There is no need to fight for the title of a princess, which will make the young master feel embarrassed for nothing."

"I don't know if my sister is home now."

As she started to do it, she put her arms on the stone table, held her cheeks in her hands, and looked at the bright moon in the sky.
