Chapter 424 I solved the problem using my own method
Li Menghan sat inside that military off-road vehicle.
The car was parked in a small grove of trees about 20 kilometers away from Linhai City.
This is where they are temporarily resting.
Although he had just been mentally reprimanded by his father, Li Ze, which made him feel extremely embarrassed.
However, this also brought him to his complete waking up.
He knew he couldn't act impulsively like before. War isn't a game; you can't solve all problems with force alone.
Li Menghan took a deep breath. He turned his head and looked at the ten superpowered team members sitting in the back of the car.
"Everyone, take a break and have something to eat."
Li Menghan's voice became very calm, without the arrogance she had just displayed.
"We can't just give up like this. We definitely have to take Linhai City."
"However, we must try a different approach."
Zhao Qiang nodded when he heard Li Menghan's words.
He took out a bottle of water, took a sip, and then said, "Commander Li, what should we do next? Those civilians are very resentful of us now. If we launch a direct attack, we'll definitely hurt them."
Li Menghan frowned and began to think very seriously.
He recalled the business management knowledge he had learned at school, as well as the problem-solving methods that Lu Wenzhou had previously told him.
"Since those warlords were able to win over the hearts and minds of the people."
"Then we'll find out their methods for winning people over. And then we'll break those methods."
Li Menghan looked at her teammates and said loudly:
"Short hair, your superpower is speed, right?"
The short-haired girl immediately replied, "Yes, Commander. I can be several times faster than an ordinary person."
Li Menghan nodded.
"Okay. Change into ordinary clothes right now."
"You secretly infiltrated Linhai City."
"You have two tasks. First, find out exactly what benefits those warlords have given to the people. Second, find out exactly where these warlords' granaries and supply depots are located."
"Remember, never reveal yourself. Report back immediately if you find any information."
Upon hearing the order, the short-haired girl replied crisply, "Understood! Mission accomplished!"
After saying that, she immediately got out of the car and ran towards Linhai City at an extremely fast speed.
Two hours later.
It was getting dark.
The short-haired girl ran back to the grove, panting.
As soon as she got on the bus, she picked up her water bottle and drank water in big gulps.
Li Menghan quickly asked, "How is it? Have you found out?"
The short-haired girl nodded, reporting to her supervisor between breaths:
"Commander, we've found out."
"Those warlords controlled all the food and water in the city."
"Every day at a fixed time, they would distribute a small amount of food to the people. Although it was very little, it was enough to keep them from starving."
"They told the people that they had worked hard to find this grain. If the Dragon Kingdom's army came, they would take all the grain away, and everyone would starve to death."
The short-haired girl said angrily:
"These ordinary people have no access to outside information. In order to survive, they can only believe what the warlords say. That's why they hate us so much."
Upon hearing this report, Li Menghan let out a cold laugh.
"Just as I thought."
"Controlling survival resources and then portraying themselves as saviors—that's a truly despicable tactic."
Li Menghan continued, "Have they found their supply depot?"
The short-haired girl took out her phone and opened a map she had secretly drawn.
"Found it. It's inside a large air-raid shelter on the east side of the city."
"It was filled with food and water. And it was heavily guarded. There were hundreds of soldiers guarding it, and heavy machine guns too."
Li Menghan looked at the map, a very bright light flashing in his eyes.
He knew what to do.
"Since they use food to control the people."
"Then we'll seize all their grain. And then we'll distribute it to the people."
Li Menghan shouted to her teammates:
"Everyone, prepare for battle!"
"Tonight, our objective is not to kill ordinary soldiers."
"Our target is that supply warehouse."
"Once we take over the warehouses, those warlords will have nothing left to control the people. The people will naturally realize who truly cares for them."
It's 10 p.m.
The streets of Linhai City were very quiet. Only a few patrolling soldiers were moving about.
Outside the air-raid shelter on the east side of the city.
Hundreds of soldiers stood guard there, guns in hand.
Sudden.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Several very small streams of water shot out from the darkness, hitting the huge searchlights outside the air-raid shelter.
"Bang! Bang!"
The searchlight was shattered. The entrance to the air-raid shelter was instantly plunged into darkness.
"What happened! Who broke the light?!"
The leading officer shouted loudly.
Just as the soldiers were in a panic.
Zhao Qiang led several superpowered team members and rushed out of the darkness.
They didn't use guns, nor did they kill.
Using their superior strength, they charged directly into the midst of the soldiers.
"Bang! Bang!"
They knocked all the soldiers unconscious with a single punch.
The other members of the superpowered team also rushed forward.
These hundreds of ordinary soldiers had no chance of resisting ten elite superhumans.
In less than ten minutes, all the guards outside the air-raid shelter were dealt with.
Li Menghan led her people into the air-raid shelter.
The air-raid shelter was very large. It was filled with bags of rice and flour, as well as boxes of mineral water and canned goods.
Looking at all these supplies, Li Menghan was overjoyed.
He knew that the plan was more than half successful.
"Quick! Move all of this out!"
"Zhao Qiang, go find a few large trucks. We'll transport all these supplies to that square in the city center!"
The superpowered team members immediately sprang into action.
They are all very strong and can move things very quickly.
Soon, more than a dozen large trucks loaded with supplies drove in a grand procession to the central square of Linhai City.
at this time.
It was already the next morning.
It was just dawn.
As usual, the residents of Linhai City, carrying bowls and bags, arrived at the city center square, ready to line up for today's food rations.
However, when they arrived at the square...
They were all stunned.
They did not see the warlord soldiers who were usually given rations.
What they saw were more than a dozen large trucks. The trucks were piled high with rice and food, like small mountains.
Li Menghan was standing on the front of the truck.
He wasn't wearing his military uniform today; instead, he wore very ordinary clothes.
He looked down at the astonished people below.
Li Menghan picked up a large megaphone.
He shouted very loudly and very sincerely:
"Fellow villagers of Linhai City!"
"I am the Dragon Kingdom commander who was kicked out by you yesterday."
"I know why you cursed at me yesterday, and why you threw stones at me."
"Because you were deceived by those warlords!"
Li Menghan pointed to the grain behind her.
He said loudly:
"Look at all this stuff!"
"These are all supplies that those warlords hid in the air-raid shelters! They only give you a little bit each time, keeping you hungry. It's all to control you!"
"But our Dragon Kingdom's army is different!"
"We're here to protect you!"
"Today, I'm distributing all this food to everyone for free!"
"Take as much as you want! As long as you're full!"
Hearing Li Menghan's words...
The people in the square were all stunned.
They couldn't believe their ears.
All for free? Take as much as you want?
This was something they simply couldn't imagine during the time they were controlled by warlords.
A rather daring older woman slowly walked to the front of the truck.
She asked tentatively, "Young man, you really won't take our money? And you don't want us to do any work?"
Li Menghan jumped off the truck.
He personally carried a 50-pound bag of rice and placed it in front of the old woman.
He smiled and said, "Auntie, it's really free. You deserve all of this."
Seeing that Li Menghan had actually distributed the rice.
The crowd erupted in cheers.
"It's really free! They really came to save us!"
"Those warlords are all liars! They only give us a little bit of thin porridge every day, while they keep so much good food for themselves!"
The people all rushed over.
Li Menghan and her team of superpowered individuals began distributing food to everyone in a very orderly manner.
Many of the people who received the grain were so moved that they shed tears.
They looked at Li Menghan and kept bowing in gratitude.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, Chinese army!"
"We misunderstood you yesterday. You are the truly good people!"
Hearing these heartfelt thanks from the people.
Li Menghan felt extremely warm inside.
This feeling was a million times more comfortable than when he used to drive a multi-million dollar sports car around the streets and show off.
He finally understood.
To gain respect and support from others, you must not rely on violence or intimidation.
It relies on genuinely and sincerely solving problems for others.
It relies on using your brain to think.
"Dad, did you see that? This time I didn't use the magic you taught me, nor did I have the urge to kill anyone."
"I solved the problem using my own method."
Li Menghan thought to herself with great pride.
