Chapter 196 The Number of Strong Men, Mu Tianbo Is Constantly Shocked

After seeing Chen Captou and the two men chasing the thieves, Mu Tianbo and others were shocked, and suddenly they had a deep understanding of the People's Salvation Army's behavior of not building walls when they built the city.

If the People’s Salvation Army is all this kind of people, then even if they build a city wall, they probably won’t be able to stop them, right?

In this case, what is the point of building a city wall or not?

On the other side, the thieves are not as fast as Chen Captou and the other two.

In about two or three minutes, when Mu Tianbo and others could hardly see anyone, the thief was finally caught by Chen Captou and the others.

"Hey, run, keep running!"

Grabbing one of the thief's arms, Mr. Chen slapped him on the back of the head.

"No, no, I won't run, I won't run."

The thief looked frustrated and hung his head listlessly.

"Tell me, where are the things you stole?"

"Right at my house."

Afterwards, Capt. Chen and the other two took the thief to his house to retrieve the two packages of stolen items and returned to Ruixiang Building.

"Take a look, does this belong to you? See if there is anything missing."

"No no."

After opening it and checking it, the Ruan brothers and Mrs. Chen were already shaking their heads.

Then, the Ruan brothers came forward again, took out about ten taels of silver, and tried to put it into the hands of Chen Captou and the two men.

"Hey, hey, don't!"

However, upon seeing their actions, the expressions of Mr. Chen and Mr. Chen immediately changed, and they stopped him without any hesitation.

Doesn't this make them make mistakes?

That will deduct merit.

How can this be done?

In the People's Salvation Army, all promotions require corresponding meritorious achievements.

Otherwise, even if they do not have enough meritorious political achievements due to the special circumstances now, many people can become county magistrates or even magistrates in the newly occupied areas.

However, when the semi-annual national official attendance check is held, if your meritorious performance is not up to standard and there are others whose meritorious performance exceeds yours, your position will be demoted immediately.

Therefore, for the officials and generals in the People's Salvation Army, meritorious service and political achievements are everything.

Even the lowest-level village chiefs and police officers can be promoted quickly as long as they have enough meritorious achievements.

In the past, low-level officials such as police officers were not even considered real court personnel.

If you get promoted, the most you can do is to be a head catcher.

But now, the People's Salvation Army has opened up the path to promotion.

As long as you have enough meritorious achievements, you can advance all the way.

Detective, chief, county-level inspection department chief, state-level inspection department chief, prefectural-level inspection department chief.

The most important thing is that the official positions of the People's Salvation Army are not just managers. They have corresponding magical powers, which is why people flock to them.

Even if they are just the lowest level police officers, they can easily crush the so-called top experts among the people.

Faced with various temptations and with such a clear promotion path, who would give up easily?

Naturally, they will spontaneously avoid deductions for their meritorious achievements.

Bribery, corruption, etc. can definitely be avoided to the greatest extent.

Especially low-level officials, as long as they want to be promoted, they must avoid it and never leave the slightest stain on themselves.

Chen Captou and the other two took the thief away.

Duke Mu Tianbo of Guizhou, Mrs. Chen, and the Ruan brothers sent them out of the inn and watched their figures disappear before returning.

For a moment, everyone had mixed feelings and thoughts.

Mu Tianbo's eyes flashed, and he looked at the inn where there were not many people because it was early in the morning. Then he looked at his mother who was sitting there silently, and the housekeeper Ruan brothers. After thinking for a while, he quietly came to the innkeeper. before.

"Boss Zhou, can I ask you something?"

"Haha, easy to say, easy to say, little brother Mu, please tell me."

Looking at the young man's bright eyes, the innkeeper already roughly understood what he wanted to ask, and he couldn't help but said with a smile.

"Well, are there many people like that thief and the two detective brothers here?"

After pondering for a while, Mu Tianbo asked.

The innkeeper's eyes flashed slightly, and he thought that this was indeed the case, but his face remained calm and he said with a smile:

"There are really not many people with skills like that thief in the entire Longchang County."

"Oh~!"

Mu Tianbo was a little disappointed at first, but then he felt relieved. There shouldn't be many strong people who messed around like that.

As if he saw what he was thinking, the innkeeper couldn't help but smile and change his words.

"However, there are many who are slightly inferior to him."

"Oh~? Boss Zhou, can you tell me?"

After taking a look at Mrs. Chen and Brother Ruan who were also looking curiously, the innkeeper did not refuse and said with a natural smile:

"That's too much. In the entire Longchang County, there are probably eight hundred if not one thousand.

Boss Zou opposite, Boss Ma next door.”

"ah!"

Mu Tianbo opened his mouth in shock, with a look of disbelief on his face.

He originally thought that even if there were a few masters who were slightly inferior to the thief, there might be more, but it shouldn't be too many.

However, the innkeeper said that if there were not one thousand, there would be eight hundred.

This, this is incredible.

I'm afraid that Kunming, the important town in Yunnan Province where Prince Mu's Mansion is located, doesn't have so many extraordinary soldiers in total, right?

Moreover, the power possessed by those extraordinary soldiers is far less than that of the previous thieves.

But now, the innkeeper said that just in an ordinary county like Longchang, there were 1,800 less skilled thieves than the previous thief.

Does this mean that if the National Salvation Army wants to attack Kunming, they can easily occupy Kunming as long as the strong men from this small county take action?

At this moment, they only felt that their future was gloomy.

If the People's Salvation Army is so powerful, then even if they return to the Ming Dynasty, they will probably be captured or even killed in the end.

After a while, Mu Tianbo came back to his senses.

"That

Can I practice such martial arts? "

"you?"

The innkeeper looked Mu Tianbo up and down, and then said with a smile under his anxious gaze:

"Haha, what's wrong with that?"

"Really?"

"Of course, as long as you exercise for a long time and a lot, you can also cultivate your true energy."

"It's that simple?"

"Of course it's more than that? If you want to become the top master, it's best to go to a martial arts gym to learn martial arts techniques. Only then can you become a master the fastest, and the upper limit is also high.

Maybe in three to five months, you can be like him."

However, what the innkeeper didn't say was that maybe by that time, the man would have become stronger.

After all, when you are improving, others are also improving.

"Three, three or five months?"

Mu Tianbo couldn't help but be disappointed when he heard that it would take three to five months.

They have to rush to the Huguang area as quickly as possible, and there is no way they can stay here for three to five months to practice martial arts.

Then, Mu Tianbo seemed to have thought of something and asked again:

"You said that thief is already the top strong man, and there are not many in the entire Longchang County?

But I see that the two detective brothers seem to be stronger? "

"Ha ha."

As if he heard something funny, the innkeeper couldn't help laughing.

Seeing such a scene, Mu Tianbo couldn't help but be a little confused. His smiling face, which was originally full of smiles, became a little stiff at this time.

Just when Mu Tianbo was about to change his face, the innkeeper stopped laughing and explained to Mu Tianbo:

"Captain Chen and the others are from the public sect, so they are different from us.

Even the weakest among them can easily crush the strongest among the people."

"Ah~?"

Mu Tianbo was shocked again.

"Would such a strong man be willing to join the government and become a small policeman?"

Mu Tianbo and the others think that masters have their own arrogance and generally will not join a certain force easily, even if the force is a government official.

"No, no, no, you're saying the opposite. It was only after they joined the government that they became such strong men."

"."

Mu Tianbo was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted quickly.

"You, you mean, the Life Saving Army has a way for people to quickly improve their strength?"

"There is nature, but it may be a little different from what you imagine."

"Is there any difference?"

"hehe."

Facing Mu Tianbo's inquiry, the innkeeper smiled, but did not answer.

In an instant, Mu Tianbo realized that maybe this was some secret that should not be discussed.

Of course, this is not really a secret.

As the saying goes, what one person knows is a secret, but what two people know is not a secret.

What's more, there are more than a million people with heavenly status today?

In addition, the dynasty did not prohibit the leakage of information.

News about the status of heaven and earth naturally leaked out bit by bit.

However, it seems that it is tacitly understood. Except for those who are truly close to him and those who combine the qualities of heaven and earth, he has never admitted it in front of outsiders.

Most of them are specious rumors, and no one can be sure until they have personal experience.

And when I heard that the People's Salvation Army could quickly improve people's strength and make them stronger than the strongest masters.

Mu Tianbo and others were stunned again.

They are not fools, since even ordinary detectives can get such promotion.

So what about the real Salvation Army soldiers? The improvement must be greater, right?

If all the Salvation Army were the kind of super strong people who could go up and down.

It doesn't take much. Just tens of thousands of people are enough to sweep the entire world?

Of course, it can only sweep the world, but there is no way to govern such a large territory.

But this means that as long as the National Salvation Army wants to, they can go eastward and sweep across the Ming Dynasty at any time.

They couldn't think of any army in the Ming Dynasty that could fight against such an army of the People's Salvation Army.

For a moment, everyone's expressions couldn't help but change one after another, but in the end they could only sigh secretly.

Now that they have all been driven out of Yunnan, they are like dogs bereaved. How can this be something they need to consider?

After calming down a little, Mu Tianbo chatted with the innkeeper about other things.

Anyway, it is impossible for him to stay here to practice martial arts, and as the Duke of Guizhou in the Ming Dynasty, he is even less likely to join the People's Salvation Army.

So for the time being, he didn't have to think about that kind of super martial arts.

Since that was the case, he stopped asking about these things, lest he become even more anxious.

As they were talking, they talked about trains and the transportation of military supplies.

"Oh, you mean the train? It is a means of transportation developed by the craftsmen of the Weapon Manufacturing Department based on the suggestions of the Heavenly King.

You only need to burn fire to travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night.

It only takes a few days to travel thousands of miles.

Almost all the Western Region merchants you saw came here by train.

However, once the People's Liberation Army needs it, the transportation of ordinary merchants and passengers will be stopped immediately and switched to military use."
