Shen Tianlin arrived in Pingcheng five days later. He wanted to see with his own eyes that the Gu family overhead collapsed.
In just a few days, Pingcheng was quiet, as if nothing happened.
It doesn't look like it did after the war at all, except for the collapsed city wall at the city gate.
When Shi Zhi decided to attack the city in the cold season, he firmly opposed it. The environment is harsh, and it is not a home game, so there is no advantage.
However, Shi Zhi insisted on going his own way and led the army sent by the alliance to move forward without hesitation and quickly captured the entire Pingcheng.
It was like a dream, surprisingly fast. Shen Tianlin always felt that no matter how unbearable the Gu family was, it should not have been defeated so quickly.
However, the reality forced him to believe that the Pingcheng Gu family, which he had always regarded as a behemoth, was just so invincible.
Shen Tianlin was relieved to see that the people in the city were not in turmoil. The Sun Alliance had adhered to its consistent style and would not harm innocent people.
When the news reached Sun City, it was already the beginning of January 2022 in the Sun Alliance, and Lin Yan was in a good mood.
Pingcheng has a population of approximately 300,000 and has accumulated over thousands of years, making a huge contribution to the development of the alliance.
She stared at the blank area on the map, already thinking about what kind of territory it would look like in the future.
When Heitu came over, Lin Yan's excitement had not yet calmed down.
The two looked at each other, and Kurotsuchi was the first to say: "You are really good at predicting events. Shi Zhi is even more courageous and successfully captured Pingcheng at the minimum cost."
When he heard the news, Kurotsuchi was completely confused. He never expected that Shi Zhi would attack the city in the cold season.
Lin Yan laughed: "Our soldiers are more powerful. They are not afraid of the cold, charge on the front line, and have made great contributions to the alliance. It can be seen that your rigorous training over the years has been very effective. This is a good test. Military This time the department has made a big difference, and I will take credit for them. They fought so beautifully in the first battle and got off to a good start."
Kurotsuchi did not dare to take credit, "This is the duty and mission of soldiers. Just reward those who personally participated in the war. However, Shi Zhi is really impressive."
When Lin Yan sent Shi Zhi to Ancheng, he didn't understand how a person obsessed with research could lead the overall situation and open up territory for the alliance.
Now, Shi Zhi used actions to prove that Lin Yan's persistence was right.
When the news spread, it aroused heated discussion in Sun City. It turned out that the alliance had done so much without them knowing. Expanding the territory thousands of miles away, there is a group of people there who have become compatriots with them.
Over the years, people's thoughts have also changed. In their free time, they will go to Mingcheng, Qingyan, and Yuanye to see the territory under the alliance's rule.
The happiest people are the businessmen. The addition of hundreds of thousands of people means that the market potential is unlimited. They heard the news and took action immediately.
All of a sudden, there were a lot of people coming and going on Xitian Road. Many people later understood the significance of insisting on opening Xitian Road at that time.
Water and land run parallel to each other, making communication between the two places smoother and more convenient.
At that time, many people secretly complained that investing huge resources every year in the construction of Xitian Road was a waste. Now, no one thinks so anymore. Everyone praised the alliance for having the foresight to open the Xitian Road early and making sufficient preparations for today.
People's hearts are fickle, Lin Yan didn't comment on this.
Pingcheng successfully joined the alliance territory, but I don’t know who will be next.
Opening the map Xu Hui sent back, Lin Yan looked at it carefully. From a geographical point of view, if Yuncheng and Ningcheng also go well, the alliance will have a firm foothold there, and slowly Tuzhi will have no worries at all.
In mid-March of the same year, the people sent to the Qushui tribe returned, and Lin Yan met them in person.
There were five people, and she nodded with satisfaction.
"Very good, you all returned safely. Thank you for your hard work."
Huo Jing, as the person in charge, answered: "We have lived up to our trust. During our trip, we found out the situation of the Qushui tribe. Various signs show that Qu Ya really has selfish motives. He pretended to surrender to the alliance, but secretly contacted Xing Xing. The tribe has great ambitions and they want to swallow up the Alliance."
Lin Yan sneered: "I have a huge appetite, and I'm not afraid of breaking my teeth. Let me tell you some good news. The alliance successfully captured Pingcheng and increased its population by 300,000."
Lan Zhou stood up excitedly, "When did it happen? The efficiency over there is too high."
"Two months ago, Pingcheng became the territory of the alliance. You are not bad at all. You have successfully completed the mission."
Lan Zhou: "The Qushui Tribe and the Xingyao Tribe combined only have 200,000 people. They are a piece of loose sand. It is indeed a foolish dream to annex the alliance."
Lin Yan: "Having said that, we must nip the danger in the bud and not give them a chance to breathe."
The five of them all looked at Lin Yan, waiting for her to continue. When they went to the Qushui Tribe, they had already determined that the Alliance would take possession of it sooner or later.
It is their dream to be able to contribute to the alliance's territory.
Lin Yan said, "You have just come back. Go home and have a good rest. Don't be too impatient. Don't worry, we will definitely miss you."
After the others left, Lin Yan picked up the records they brought back and looked at them carefully. They were very detailed and he could clearly understand the Qushui tribe.
Not only that, there is also a copy of the investigation results of the five people on the Xingyao Tribe, which was brought back first by Lan Yue, which completes the information on the Xingyao Tribe.
Lin Yan suppressed the urge to move and warned himself that it was not the time yet and he should not act too hastily.
Wait until Shi Zhi's side stabilizes and free up manpower to deal with the Xingyao Tribe.
The Qushui tribe is not something to be afraid of, but the Xingyao tribe should not be underestimated, especially Jin Xing, who is too mysterious.
Lin Yan wanted to go and meet in person for a while, but finally sighed.
Outside Pingcheng, countless people gathered, eager to open up wasteland.
The implementation of the new system has been fully implemented in less than a month. The happiest people are the poor people who have been exploited and enslaved for a long time.
The Sun Alliance is like a god descending from heaven, giving these people hope, breaking their shackles, and starting a new life.
The Gu family was completely eradicated, the root nodules were gone, and everything looked brand new.
I don't know whether it's a blessing or a misfortune that the Gu family is the dominant one, but it has given the alliance an advantage and the management has gone very smoothly.
Ye Meng was responsible for the internal affairs of Pingcheng. He selected a group of managers from Ancheng and the local people, and with the help of the army, Pingcheng was quickly put on the right track.
Shen Tianlin was very experienced and became Ye Meng's right-hand man, solving many problems.
However, he was not happy. There has been no news from Yuncheng for a long time, and his son's safety has become Shen Tianlin's concern.
On this day, he couldn't bear it anymore and went to Shi Zhi to ask about the situation.
"No news is good news, just wait patiently."
Shi Zhi's words made Shen Tianlin feel cold. There was another possibility even if there was no news, one that he couldn't even think of.
