The Speaking Pork Trotter

This is a brand new story.
Survive the darkness, see the light
There is no right or wrong, it just depends on which side you are standing on.
To be a god, or to be a man.
To be good, or to be evil.
Just what is...the highest order of weapon that humanity has?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After a great catastrophe struck, the world was set back many years and humanity started living in anarchy.
With time, society started building up again and people were now living in walled strongholds and fringe towns across the land.
Humans have also become distrustful and ruthless in an unforgiving society where the strong survive and the weak are eliminated.
Growing up in such an era, Ren Xiaosu had to fend for himself.
After an incident, he gained supernatural powers...

The First Order

"Military expansion is not a trivial matter." Ren Xiaosu explained to P5092, "It still needs to go through a formal approval process by Commander Zhang."

However, the Great Hoodwinker said from nearby, "Commander Zhang has said that you'll be in charge of things in Stronghold 144 and its territories. He won't interfere with your decisions. Even if you submit documents for approval, they'll be rejected and sent right back. Right now, you basically have the power to act as you please."

"Does Stronghold 144 have the budget for military expansion?" Ren Xiaosu looked at Zhang Xiaoman.

"Of course. After the trade routes opened, although the tax rates were very low, Stronghold 144 has become the richest stronghold in the Northwest," Zhang Xiaoman replied. "In terms of our local regional finances, we have more money than we can spend."
