American comics: The supreme entry system, I am the way of heaven!

When Lin Qiming returned with Tiffana and Lin Xianyin, he almost couldn't recognize his own manor.

The bloodstains and rows of irregular holes on the wall, as well as the bullet holes that almost penetrated the thick bricks, all showed that a fierce but short battle had taken place not long ago, and the guards even used Krupp cannons.

There was a faint smell of gunpowder in the air, mixed with a smell of blood and unfamiliar body odor.

According to the traces of bloodstains and the spread of the smell, the madman who dared to invade the Lin's manor actually escaped alive, and another familiar smell chased out, it was James Howlett.

After sending the two surprised women back to the villa, Lin Qiming met David Petal, who was asking for forgiveness, in the study.

"Tell me, what happened during the few hours I was away?"

"The enemy that you couldn't stop even with the Krupp cannon must be very powerful, so I don't blame you for your poor performance, but how could you let him enter the manor so easily?"

His face was serious and his eyes were cold.

David Petar knelt on one knee, not daring to raise his head, and reported the cause and effect of the battle truthfully, and then hung his head to wait for punishment.

"He also used the tactics of luring the tiger away from the mountain and sneaking in with disguise, it seems that Sabretooth is not a fool!"

Based on James Howlett's strange reaction before, and the description of his deputy commander of the guard team, the true identity of the intruder can be basically locked, that is, Sabretooth Victor Logan, Wolverine's half-brother.

Ordinary humans will never cause Wolverine's special induction, nor will they have the strength to run away from the Lin's manor after a hole was blown in the chest and head.

Lin Qiming's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and the rhythmic tapping sound echoed in the study.

He pondered for a while and said lightly

"Your deputy commander position has been stripped from now on. Go back and be a private soldier to train again. When you learn to handle emergencies flexibly, I will consider reinstating you."

"I will also confiscate your half-year bonus and one month's salary for the soldiers who stayed behind as punishment for your failure to stop the enemy outside the gate. Do you accept this?"

David Petar was relieved after hearing this, and nodded his head repeatedly and said loudly.

""Yes, my Lord, I am convinced!"

He thought he would be driven out of the Lin's Manor, but he was only relieved of his position as deputy commander. Compared with the consequences of command errors, this punishment was already very light.

Although David Petal felt distressed about the confiscation of half a year's bonus, it was far from the point where his family would not be able to make ends meet. He just implicated the 500 brothers who stayed in the manor and deducted one month's salary, which was really a bit hard to bear.

Lin Qiming nodded slightly and waved to him.

"Okay, you can go down now. After announcing the punishment decision, hand it over to Li Luoda."

"In the future, when I go to Mississippi, this kind of problem must not happen again, otherwise it will not be so simple next time. I will skin alive the officers and soldiers who made mistakes in front of everyone!"

David Petar, who had just stood up, almost knelt on the ground again because of his weak knees. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and dripped down his forehead to the ground. He left in a hurry in embarrassment.

Lin Qiming rubbed his swollen temples and felt deeply that it was not easy to be the leader of a big force. It is not good not to punish subordinates for making mistakes. There is no order without rules. Otherwise, everyone will think that it is okay to make mistakes. In the long run, he will lose his authority and it will be easy for the military discipline to be lax and the command to fail.

And it is not good to punish too severely. At least for now, although more than 2,000 guards can kill and set fire for him, they are not as loyal as Li Luoda and others. Once the punishment is too severe, people's hearts will be scattered. Under the grief of the rabbit, they will change jobs and vote with their legs even if they don't mutiny.

"We still have to continue training. Maybe we can train the next generation of guards. If they are influenced by Li Luoda and others since they were young, we will have no problem training a loyal army."

Just as Lin Qiming was feeling emotional, a strong smell of blood came from far away.

He just looked in the direction of the smell when the study door was knocked.

"Brother Lin, I heard you're back. Can I come in and talk to you?"

Outside the door, James Howlett was covered in blood, with deep wounds all over his body. His nose looked like it was bitten off by a beast, and there was a claw mark across most of his face at his left eye. His eyeballs were blinded and gray.

"Come in, the door is not locked, I don't smell any enemy, have you lost the battle?"

"I heard from David that when you left, you said you wanted to bring back the enemy's head.……"

As the door opened, Lin Qiming saw his miserable state and stopped talking.

Even though James Howlett was weaker than Victor Logan, he was not so weak that he could not fight back. Judging from this, the latter was probably seriously injured.

"I'm sorry, Brother Lin, I thought I could kill him easily, but in the end I couldn't bring myself to let him go!"

"I still remember that on my 5th birthday, my parents forgot my birthday. Only he, O'Hara, and my grandfather remembered my birthday. I celebrated my birthday twice that day."

"So please forgive me for being soft-hearted. I promise I will never show mercy next time!"

Looking at his friend in front of him, who was bowing his head like a primary school student who had made a mistake, Lin Qiming could not say anything harsh. He could only step forward and pat his shoulder in silence.

"Men should be responsible for their own decisions. You still remember that you let him go easily when you were a child, but Victor Logan may not still remember those old memories."

"I hope your momentary weakness will not bring you irreparable regret!"

"Don't go to your grandfather later, he will be sad to see you like this, if he asks you about it I will help you cover it up."

James Howlett's right single eye showed gratitude, and he made up his mind that next time he met Victor Logan, he would not show mercy again.

After a fight with an unexpected outcome, the Lin's Manor returned to peace again.

Soon it was the day to go to Mississippi for the appointment. If you go by land from Edmonton to Enid Lake, the journey is more than 3,500 kilometers. Even if the road conditions are much better now than 10 years ago, it will take at least a month to travel.

If you change to a water route, the distance will be shorter, only more than 2,800 kilometers. Taking a boat downstream can save a lot of time, and it will not be too tiring. It is much better to travel by land on horseback, sleeping in the open and eating dust.

The fastest speed of passenger ships at that time was 36 km/h. If you charter a passenger ship with two crews working day and night, excluding the time for refueling and possible maintenance, it would only take seven or eight days to arrive.

After comparing the two options, Lin Qiming decisively chose the second plan.

He took more than 30 guards and James Howlett, and spent two days and two nights traveling day and night from Edmonton to the small town of Loma in Montana on horseback. There, he spent 5,000 pounds to charter a medium-sized passenger ship, hired an additional crew locally, and sailed day and night along the Missouri River. Sailing.

The group took a passenger boat to enjoy the scenery along the way.

The three meals were prepared by the chef on the passenger boat.

They crossed North Dakota and South Dakota, and followed the river through the border between Nebraska and Iowa.

After entering Missouri, they sailed all the way to Memphis, Tennessee to disembark.

After buying horses locally, they rode as fast as they could and arrived at the small town of Courtland, which was only more than 20 kilometers away from Lake Enid, on the 6th day.

At this time, there was still one day before the time agreed by Lin Qiming and Hamilton, so the group found a relatively clean hotel in the town to stay. After a good night's sleep and rest, they rode their horses to the place agreed by the two. A fishing paradise located in the Y-shaped waters of Lake Enid.

After the accompanying guards explored the surroundings and confirmed that there were no hidden predatory beasts, they cleared a flat ground by the lake and pulled out all the thorns and weeds. Not long after

Lin Qiming put up the fishing rod, a group of people slowly approached.

After the guards on both sides confirmed each other's identities, they lowered their guns. One of the middle-aged men dismounted alone and walked forward with a fishing rod.

He has golden brown curly hair, deep and three-dimensional facial features, and the lines of his face are very clear and tough. His eyes are sharp and alert in the deep eye sockets, and his thin lips look difficult to deal with.

"Mr. Lin from Edmonton, I didn’t expect you to come earlier than me!"

"I am Jefferson Hamilton Davis. Since I read the letter you sent me, to be honest, I haven't slept well for several days. On the one hand, I prayed that the person I met was a liar, but on the other hand, the cruel reality made it impossible for me to deceive my own heart, so I came here today."

"Before we go deeper, I want to ask you a question that has been on my mind for more than half a month. Whether you find it too offensive or not, I still want to ask it."

"As far as I know, you own a large piece of land in Ghana and are a very wealthy and powerful landowner. I don't understand why you would worry about the internal affairs of Meilijian, which has nothing to do with you."

Lin Qiming shrugged, put down the fishing rod in his hand, and shook hands with him.

"I didn't come early, just right!"

"Mr. Hamilton, if you don't mind, let's sit down and chat while fishing. Look, my fishing rod is ready. It will be a pity if I don't catch some fish!"

After he finished speaking, he let go of his hand and signaled the guards to bring out two stools, giving one to Hamilton.

The two men sat next to each other, just like ordinary fishermen, making nests, hanging baits, and casting rods in one go, but the topics they talked about while sitting on the stools waiting for the fish to bite were enough to scare a lot of abolitionists to death.

Lin Qiming stared at the float, but his real intention was not to fish.

He was like an ancient strategist. Before stating his purpose, he would first use shocking words to stun the target he wanted to persuade, and then use the other party's shock or fear to instill his own rhetoric.

"The United States will be independent from the British Empire and will also perish under the British Empire!"

Hamilton's eyes widened, and his mouth opened in shock.

Before he could rebuke himself, Lin Qiming continued

"You think I'm trying to scare you, no, I'm just stating the facts"

"The birthplace of abolitionism is Europe, and the British Empire contributed the most to it. This once empire on which the sun never sets was in decline and had lost a large number of colonial lands, such as the United States."

"After the slave-consuming big business disappeared, or the slave business was taken away by the rising star, the United States, the British Empire, which no longer had any interests in this area, would naturally generously promote the fallacies put forward by some weirdos who had nothing better to do, but in the end, they would not be the ones hurt."

Hamilton listened carefully, but soon found a loophole and refuted

"Even if what you said is true, abolitionism can only cause a certain social impact. Okay, there are also internal party conflicts, but this is far from enough to destroy the United States."

After he finished speaking, Lin Qiming shook his finger.

"No, no, no, you are wrong, Mr. Hamilton. If you cannot convince the other party politically, military conflict will break out. The capitalists in the North are salivating over the many slaves in your South."

"Interests can make people crazy. You understand the national conditions of America better than I do, so you should know whether what I said is true or false!"

"Compared to the North, which has a more developed economy, more territory, more strategic depth, and more talent, you in the South are actually at a disadvantage. If a war breaks out, you will undoubtedly be the loser.��"

Lin Qiming paused for a moment, allowing Hamilton to better digest the information he had just heard.

The float in the water happened to move, and he felt a pulling force on the fishing rod in his hand. He stood up and began to release the line to fish. He pulled the fish until it was exhausted, then quickly pulled the rod, and a perch more than a foot long was pulled out of the water.

When the fish was pulled to the shore, the guard standing nearby quickly removed the fishhook, put the perch into the fish basket, and hung it on the shore to immerse it in the lake water to prevent the fish from turning belly up and dying.

""Mr. Hamilton, I'm ahead!"

Lin Qiming put the bait again, threw the hook out from a distance, and continued to wait for the next fish to bite.

Hamilton didn't even look at the fish in the basket. He unbuttoned the first row of his shirt with some restlessness, and seemed to be a little out of breath.

"Okay, I give up, Lin, stop beating around the bush."

"Even if the North and the South go to war, at most it will be a war of reunification and national defense. No matter whether the South wins or the North wins, the United States will still be the United States. I still don't see where the crisis of extinction is?"

He was anxious, he was really anxious, it seemed that the time had come.

Lin Qiming did not play tricks anymore and described the future of the United States before the time travel.

For example, the Black Lives Matter Movement, the Minority Rights Act, the evolution of women's rights from equal rights to privileges, changes in the population structure, Jewish capital controlling the country's economic lifeline, anti-Jewish laws, etc. were all mentioned based on his own reasoning.

"So when I say that Meriga will perish, I don’t mean that the country is going to perish, but that the spirit and ideas that represent the true Meriga will perish, and the majority of the people who created the country of Meriga will perish!"

"Imagine that the descendants of slaves liberated by abolitionism would not be grateful at all, but would continue to make trouble by saying that their ancestors were exploited and enslaved, which eventually became one of the political correctness."

"Think about it again. Under the promotion of white leftists and the help of Jewish capital, your descendants will have 97 genders.……"

The more Hamilton listened, the uglier his face became. In the end, his eyes were bloodshot and he looked like he wanted to eat someone.

"Shut up, I said shut up, stop talking!"

"I am willing to cooperate with you. Tell me your conditions. As long as they do not betray national interests and are not anti-human, I can agree to them."

Lin Qiming showed a satisfied smile. The real big fish finally took the bait.

He pointed at himself and revealed his true purpose.

"I am a plantation owner and I have thousands of slaves on my farms and ranches, so I am against abolitionism!"

"Also, because I am just a farmer, and have suffered enough from various power exploitations and targeted administrative orders in the past 10 years, so I want to be the one who holds power!"

"There are still 10 years before the Civil War in the United States. Hamilton, you must speed up your promotion in the political arena and be qualified to become the interim president of the South before the war comes. I will use these 10 years to accumulate more wealth, build more advanced weapons, and train more powerful elite soldiers."

Hamilton's breathing became rapid, and even the guards nearby could hear his heartbeat.

No one with political ambitions would not want to rise to the pinnacle of national power, especially after being brainwashed, he already believed that he was the only savior of the United States.

"If I become the interim president of the South, Lin, I will not forget your contribution. Whether it is the Minister of War or the Secretary of State, I am willing to recommend you to the candidate list."

Lin Qiming nodded. The price offered by the other party was quite sincere.

In fact, these two seemingly high-ranking positions were not what he really wanted, but everything is difficult at the beginning. Only by seizing the opportunity to get on the bus can he be qualified to choose the spoils.

"The Mississippi tide has arrived, and today I know who I am!"
