Origin Paradise!

Jiang He stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "We can't treat people too cruelly. Let's start by harming the First Division. To make a long story short, I personally think the Ninth Army Group is at risk of being wiped out. It's too risky to bet everything at once."

"Including those currently in the park, I'll give you 8000 evil soldiers to form a guard division to protect the park, and another 2,000 to form a guard regiment to take over the First Division with me. Once the front lines are wiped out, we'll draw more from the park."

Wuhe was a little surprised: "Boss, you're not very optimistic about the outcome of the war."

Jiang He nodded, there was no doubt about it.

Lilith said, "The enemy is already in command, and I'm pessimistic too."

Wuhe thought for a moment and said, "What about the other 20,000 evil soldiers? They can't just sit idle. How about we have them form a construction corps to help me cut down trees? The leaves from the forests around the park can be made into cigarettes. A lot of councilors in the fortress died recently, and the cigarette market outside the wall is now empty."

Master Wu couldn't stand seeing his vicious soldiers idle.

“Okay.” Jiang He had no objections.

……

12 month 4 number.

The park has gained an additional 30,000 young and middle-aged laborers.

Guardians and guard regiments were established.

The employees and townspeople discussed the matter extensively, but it had no real impact. All the undercover agents were dragged out by the mob and hanged at the door, brought to justice in a way that someone preferred.

The personnel deployment was completed quickly.

Dawn Tyrannosaurus took office as the commander of the Guard Division, A-Er became the commander of the First Regiment of the Guard Division, and A-Da became the commander of the Guard Regiment. The First Construction Division and the Second Construction Division were also established at the same time.

At the same time, Jiang He contacted Consultant Gu via a friend message, and the two communicated through the association's encrypted channel.

"You're the Director of the Security Bureau, you're not trying to bait me, are you? Our Order Association is a friendly civilian organization, we don't need to resort to violence." Advisor Gu kept his mouth shut.

"Then where will you go and pledge allegiance to the commander?" Jiang He said calmly, "I hope you will support me in becoming the head of the Ninth Fortress."

Advisor Gu chuckled. “What do you mean by ‘leader’? You make it sound like you’re fighting for territory in the streets. You just want to be a warlord. Not everyone can catch the wave of rebellion right from the start like you. Our association put a lot of effort into the commander, but who would have thought he would actually die? The situation inside the fortress is now very complicated. We will definitely not invest a second time in the short term. However, I am your prisoner and have the obligation to assist in the operation. Moreover, I can also buy and sell military supplies. The association has its own large gathering place.”

"See you at the First Division headquarters." Jiang He hung up the phone.

Chapter 236 Meeting

August 12th, early morning.

Jiang He left the park and led a guard of two thousand men to the North Camp of the Ninth Fortress.

Wuhe, A'er, and Shuguang Tyrannosaurus, three capable officers, remained in the park to continue to accelerate the collection of weapons from the surrounding small settlements. Their main objective was to seize firearms and ammunition. Due to the lack of a complete industrial base, the park was unable to supply munitions to all troops. However, under the guidance of Shuguang Intelligence, the first simple military production line had been put into use.

Half a day later, the escort team arrived at the North Camp.

The Ninth Army Group consisted of four armies, stationed in the southeast, northwest, and southwest of the fortress, with the Beidaying barracks being the location of the First Army.

The entire garrison was like a collection of several large towns adjacent to each other. Due to the scarcity of living supplies, when there were no war orders, the soldiers needed to spend a certain amount of time cultivating the fields. This was not originally a task for the regular troops, but the officers of all ranks on the wasteland were far from clean.

The guard regiment entered the North Camp, and Jiang He went straight to the division headquarters in Town No. 1. It was a dilapidated factory. As a product of the old era, the factory was already in a state of disrepair, but the main structure was still sturdy.

"Reporting to the division commander, the entire staff of the First Division is present, and no one is absent." The division chief of staff introduced the current situation in turn: 60 people in the staff, 120 people in the communications company, and 120 people in the guards, a total of 300 people at this moment are in the factory.

But apart from the division chief of staff who was out socializing, the entire division headquarters seemed to be bustling with activity, with everyone busy with their own work and seemingly unable to spare the time to welcome the new commander.

Jiang He was not surprised by this, or rather, this was the normal situation. His appointment was parachuted in, he had no military experience or troop base before, and he had lost his power within the stronghold. In contrast, the former commander of the First Division had been promoted to commander of the Second Army. The First Division was equivalent to the enemy's most loyal corps, so naturally, they were impenetrable and their attitude was ambiguous.

“I contacted the civilian order association. This organization has provided support to the commander. You should know the details better than I do. If the deal goes through, we can get a lot of weapons. Now, send a telegram to the entire division. All officers above the rank of platoon leader, come to the division headquarters for a distribution meeting. Also, the communications company is to be withdrawn to make room for everyone.”

The division chief of staff's eyes darted around; this was clearly an attempt to win over the people. He knew about the Order Association; this civilian organization controlled a large settlement that specialized in the production of weapons and military supplies.

Currently, the standard weapon of the army group is still bolt-action rifles. Only the main force regiments can be equipped with the AK47 automatic rifle, which was most common in the old days. As for modern firearms, they are limited to officers' personal guards or private soldiers of aristocratic families.

The division chief of staff pondered for a moment and said, "Commander, you may not know this, but since the recent incident, the logistics of the entire army group have been controlled by the council, and our First Division has no financial resources."

"I will personally fund this arms deal," Jiang He said calmly. The army group's logistics were one of the key targets of the council chairman's centralized "rebellion." Without this rein, the army group would become a runaway horse once the great expedition began. But with soldiers comes money. The division chief of staff's refusal at this moment was simply because he did not want to use his own resources to buy people's hearts for others.

"Understood, thank you for your support, Commander!"

The division chief of staff saluted on the spot, turned around and handed over the meeting arrangements. The communications company withdrew from the factory, and the staff and guards of the entire division headquarters began to set up the meeting venue.

Two hours later, officers of all ranks from the First Division arrived one after another.

"A new broom sweeps clean, I wonder if I can hold onto my position as the main force commander."

"Brother Chang, you're really joking. Everyone knows you're the commander's trusted confidant. If this young lad dares to mess around with you, I'll be the first to object!"

"Judging from the chief of staff's words, the new guy is capable of getting his hands on weapons. If you ask me, let's give him some face first, and talk about everything after we get the weapons."

“That makes sense, that makes sense. My soldiers are all starving like wolf cubs. If it weren’t for the incentive, do you think I would even give them the time of day?”

All six regimental commanders of the First Division were present: one main force regiment, one artillery regiment, one mech regiment, and three regular regiments. Among them, the mech regimental commander looked sleepy and didn't take the others seriously at all. All of the division's hundreds of mechs were in his hands. In this wasteland where mechs were equivalent to tanks, no matter who was the division commander, they all had to give him face.

On the makeshift stage set up in the factory, Jiang He sat in the center of the long table, with a clear view of the entire division, which had more than 500 squad leaders, and the dozen or so rows of chairs were almost full.

"They really all came," Lilith exclaimed in amazement.

“There’s no such thing as missing a meeting. I’ve used this trick several times.” Jiang He said that the mentality of “the law doesn’t punish the masses” is very common, and a sense of security is created when people gather together.

Half an hour later, all the officers had arrived.

"Silence," Jiang He said into the microphone.

The meeting room remained noisy, with officers chatting and laughing.

Bang!

The chief of staff slammed his fist on the table, feigning anger, and said, "Didn't you hear the division commander say 'Silence'?"

"What are you pretending to be? If the teacher hadn't left, would this guy even have a chance to speak?"

"Look, this guy might have switched sides to the new guy. The head of the Ai family is the chief of staff. If he takes the right position during the rebellion, he can easily control a chief of staff like him."

"Hey, you guys don't understand, this is called seizing the right to speak. Let me see what tricks our new division commander has up his sleeve. I heard he's a dominant-level ability user."

"What dominance level? There have been more than one unlucky souls in the history of the Alliance who have been killed by mech swarms."

It took a full two minutes for the room to quiet down.

Jiang He announced into the microphone, "I hereby declare that everyone present shall be executed immediately."

After he finished speaking, the division chief of staff looked completely bewildered.

The commanders looked on in astonishment, some even picking their ears. But the Fiend Soldiers and Dawn People were absolutely obedient to someone's orders.

Da da da!

The ruthless soldiers guarding the factory perimeter stormed in in an orderly fashion, firing their guns in unison. The ruthless soldiers crawling on the second floor of the factory extended their gun barrels and opened fire wildly. Gunfire rose and fell, and the sound of bullets shooting was incessant. Chains of fire swept across the venue.

The division chief of staff was shot between the eyebrows, and several regimental commanders were targeted and beaten until they convulsed. The metal storm tore through flesh and blood, and bright red blood splattered everywhere, with clouds of blood mist rising up.

"You have to die!"

A battalion commander, his face contorted with rage, used his supernatural powers to protect himself. He drew his sidearm and aimed it at someone on the podium, only to have his skull shattered by an invisible, powerful sword-like finger.

shhhhhh!

Jiang He sat behind the table, constantly flicking his fingers. Invisible sword fingers enveloped the venue, leaving long ripples. He used spiral energy to fire bullets. When the target was a high-level superhuman, he would activate the perfect-level skill - Fatal Strike. The armor-shattering enhancement and flight speed enhancement alone were enough to make the superhumans unable to resist.

Lilith smiled and clapped lightly, "That's more like it. When a hegemon bullies an ordinary superhuman of the same era, it's already a favor to him to just lift a finger."

Corpses lay strewn about, and more than 500 officers had been executed. The Dawn People and the Fiend Soldiers were exceptionally efficient in their killings; they had no empathy, let alone mercy or compassion.

Chapter 237 Preparation

The factory meeting room was filled with a mist of blood.

The bodies were collected and disposed of, and the shoulder insignia and uniforms were recovered. One by one, the fierce soldiers lined up and walked onto the stage to receive their shoulder insignia, military rank, and name.

Jiang He activated the rare-level transformation technique in turn. This level of transformation technique can only change appearance, and the six regimental commanders were the first to emerge.

“You guys go outside, the officers’ guards are going to cause trouble.”

In fact, the moment the gunshots rang out, the guards of the battalion and regimental commanders outside the door had already entered combat mode. It was only by having Ah Er vouch for himself that they were able to buy some time. The only thing these guards could console themselves with was that no one dared to joke with all the officers, as a mishap could easily trigger a mutiny.

Six regimental commanders went out and brought the situation under control. As more and more officers came out, the tense situation was calmed down.

At four o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiang He ordered a military parade for the entire First Division, intending to disrupt the existing order as soon as possible.

Tens of thousands of soldiers gathered in front of the factory. Once the number exceeded ten thousand, they covered the entire area, forming six square formations that filled the flat ground outside the factory. Now, all the squad leaders were disguised as vicious soldiers, and someone's control over the First Division reached the very foundation.

"He was reassigned as the commander of the mech regiment year after year."

"Shu Han has been reassigned as the commander of the main force regiment."

"Erin has been reassigned as the commander of the Third Regiment."

……

As Ah Er read out each name, it was like a mahjong set, with all the officers in the division shuffling and starting over. Normally, such a deployment would encounter unprecedented resistance, but at this moment it was eerily calm.

"Even the big shots are convinced."

"I don't know this class monitor either."

"You lot, shut up!"

The ruthless sergeant coldly rebuked his soldiers. One soldier was a little resentful, but he didn't have the courage to stand out among tens of thousands of people. The collective will easily overwhelmed individual thought.

On the second floor of the factory, Jiang He stood at the window overlooking the entire scene, his attention mostly focused on the mecha group.

The First Division's main strength consists of over a hundred three-meter-tall mechs, which are comparable to tanks in the old era. There are 25 firepower mechs, 25 warrior mechs, 25 defensive mechs, and 25 speed mechs.

In addition, the artillery regiment also has 20 heavy artillery pieces and 80 light artillery pieces such as field guns, tactical guns, and mortars.

"Dawn, how many mechs can I handle right now?"

"Reporting to Master, with your current mental strength, Dawn can directly control 150 mechs. If you transfer the pressure to Miss Lilith, the upper limit is unknown."

Lilith leaned against the windowsill, her curves graceful, her long, bright red hair cascading down. Upon hearing the report from the AI-powered person, she simply smiled faintly, "I don't care."

"Then let's do it this way." Jiang He pulled a nano data cable from the pendant around her neck and handed it to the evil soldier guarding her. Dawn Intelligence had obtained the radio technology of the communications unit, or more accurately, restored it. The technological level of the Western World was extraordinary.

The military parade is still ongoing.

Before evening, Consultant Gu arrived at Beidaying No. 1 Town by car.

"Advisor, we've come to the wrong place."

The Order Bureau player, acting as the driver, peered out from the driver's seat, looking left and right. As expected, the former Director of Security should have difficulty taking down the First Division, which would make it necessary for the Order Association to buy and sell weapons, thereby gaining a certain degree of influence.

"The situation is somewhat different."

Consultant Gu got out of the car, and Ah Er, who had finished his dispatch announcement, came over with his men to greet him.

"Welcome, advisor. The boss is waiting for you on the second floor of the division headquarters."

As the group entered the factory, the stench of blood, which could not be washed away, hit them. Consultant Gu only glanced around, but he could already see the dried bloodstains and bullet holes. A brutal massacre had taken place here, and the situation was one-sided.

On the second floor of the factory, the entire staff had been wiped out, and Jiang He was looking at the sand table alone.

"The Ninth Fortress is located in the northeast of the Alliance. Further north is the Henglan Mountains. The mountains serve as a dividing line, which locals often refer to as the area inside and outside the pass. Generally speaking, the dark creatures and the humans of this world are in a standoff between the north and south."

"Xidu is located northeast of the Ninth Fortress. To advance into its heartland, there are only two routes for the army to advance: Route A is Heibai Pass, located in the coastal corridor, and Route B is Daquan Pass, located directly north of the Alliance."

Consultant Gu took off his overcoat and hung it on a simple clothes rack. He came to the sand table, picked up the command stick, and continued, "The second fortress will take Route B. The early and middle stages of the war will not be of much concern to us. The initial objective of the Ninth Army Group is probably to break through the Black and White Pass guarded by the Dark Nobles and advance the army to open up the battlefield."

"Xidu is the tenth fortress the alliance plans to build. Outside the pass, there are industrial relics with a solid foundation from the old era, and minerals and other resources are exceptionally abundant."

"But attacking Xidu is not something that can be accomplished by just focusing on one city. The dark creatures have established a large-scale survival circle centered on Xidu. This time, the two army groups have mobilized all their forces to organize a major battle, with more than 400,000 troops involved, but success is not guaranteed."

Jiang He looked up and asked, "You seem a little anxious."

Advisor Gu nodded and replied, "Our main force of the Order Bureau is operating in the southeast of the Alliance. They have now occupied half of the council seats in the Sixth Fortress. According to reliable sources, the Emperor is terminally ill, and the Supreme Council has launched this war at all costs. They hope to abolish the Emperor's system in one fell swoop by gaining military merits."

Jiang He pondered for a moment, then tapped the table twice. "You're here to discuss business."

Advisor Gu pulled out a chair and sat down: "The Order Association can provide you with all the munitions and supplies during the war. The one hundred sets of lightweight alloy combat uniforms I promised you are on the vehicle, on the condition that you do your best to support our political activities after you become a warlord."

“I remember someone saying they weren’t planning to invest a second time.” Jiang He narrowed his eyes; he had originally planned to sell the vitality potions he had to buy weapons.

Consultant Gu glanced at his watch. "You were able to take control of the First Division in four hours, so you must have used player-level methods. I'm not interested in the specifics, but being cautious doesn't mean missing an opportunity."

“Then let’s sign a contract. You should have something similar,” Jiang He said.

Consultant Gu pulled out a parchment scroll and immediately began drafting the contract. There was something he hadn't told the other party: according to the predictions of the fortune tellers in the analysis room, when the emperor's lineage perished, its counterattack would most likely usher in a new chapter. If the world war "coincidentally" broke out, then the world would be in chaos.

The standard for determining the outcome of the world's struggle is likely to be "unification." The time when the war officially breaks out will not be too long, at most ten years according to the time scale of this world.
