Chapter 1033: Western Suburbs Alliance, the Shock of the Hunting Tiger!
When other players in the territory except the combat system learned about the war that broke out last night, it was already around noon.
This cannot be hidden, and there is no need to hide it.
The twelve dead are like a thorn. If it is not pulled out, it will only sink deeper and deeper, causing more damage.
After all, the oldest of the twelve guards is just over 40 years old, and the youngest is only 22 years old.
Among them, two of them got married in the village not long ago, and they were planning to save enough points to buy a room in the dungeon, have an independent little world, and live a better life.
But now everything is empty, they can only lie in the cold box and look forward to the day when they go home.
"Thank you for their contribution to the territory, we will still fulfill our promise and take them home!"
Standing in the newly built Hall of Heroes behind the Iron Stone Mountain, Su Mo finished reading the eulogy in a sad tone.
As the twelve urns were put down along the gap, it also meant that this simple funeral was over.
For the war in the wasteland, any victory will be accompanied by more or less price.
But for those residents who did not really participate in the front-line battles, the slight burden should not be borne entirely by them.
Today is the first day of the second year of the wasteland.
Well, this is an undoubted victory!
Adjusting his expression, Su Mo walked out of the Hall of Heroes with his head held high, and saw many residents who came to mourn spontaneously and the family and friends of the fallen guards standing at the door waiting in the distance.
Nodding silently, he left from the side.
After walking about a few dozen steps, obvious crying and shouting came from the back.
Obviously they also knew that the lord of Tianyuan Territory had done well enough within his ability.
If it were somewhere else, the number of casualties would only increase by dozens or hundreds of times.
In the chat channel of the game territory, many people were also talking about the battle that happened last night.
But compared with the atmosphere at the funeral, the chat in the channel seemed much more exciting.
The first male gun of the island nation: "Brothers, do you need support over there on the warning wall? I can go to the battlefield at any time!"
Unit-01: "The heavy industry group is in place, and we can also pull the cannon to the battlefield to assist in the attack."
Midnight Plane: "Since they dare to attack us, we can't be merciful. We will plant bombs directly on their way."
Look at the road when you go out: "Stay calm, see how the lord arranges it first, don't attack without authorization"
Dismantle the tank with bare hands: "Do you think we can get into them with the identity of wanderers? Anyway, we have captured so many people. If we succeed, won't we have an insider?"
Sildenafil: "Fuck, this is a good suggestion. I suggest sending the old Taoist over. His accent is no different from that of the locals."
No one knows better than me: "Manual +1.
Kongkong Taoist: "Yaer, I am a scavenger, not a spy. You can't wait to send me into the box! (Knife!)"
The slightly joyful atmosphere can also confirm the success of this battle from the side.
Back in the underground city office, Su Mo saw three captives selected from the wanderer team.
In addition to Ram, there is also a wanderer team leader Frank who is in charge of logistics.
The other person is the native of Qinggang Shelter, a signalman responsible for transmitting information.
At this time, seeing someone push the door and walk in, Ram and Frank looked up and their faces immediately became respectful.
They had seen the photo of the Tianyuan Territory manager and recognized that this person was the mysterious manager at the first time.
"Manager, this is Ram, a captain in the wanderer team, with hundreds of people under him."
"This is Frank. As long as he is responsible for the logistics management of the wanderer team, he knows the specific amount of supplies. "
"As for him, he is a bit hard-mouthed. At first, he pretended to be a wanderer, but I caught him later! "
Osmond, who had recovered, was full of energy and quickly introduced the identities of the three people.
As wanderers, Ram and Frank had no professional ethics at all, and they confessed everything as soon as they surrendered.
Since the first day after entering the new city of Sunny Harbor, the two of them told their daily lives like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
From going to the office of a deputy commander with special fetishes and humiliating him to inspect his body.
From secretly running to the toilet after the lights were turned off and curfew one night to taste the wine hidden during the day.
As the undoubted bottom of the Sunny Harbor shelter, their boring life is boring and lacks value.
Even if they confessed everything, there are only those points of value.
But the signalman found from the wanderer team is different. He has not opened his mouth until now.
Not to mention useful information, even his name has not been asked.
"I'll give you another chance to think about it. Are you sure you don't want to tell it? "
Su Mo sat on the stool and nodded at the white paper on the table.
"As a manager, I admire your loyalty to the territory. Compared with them, you are a warrior with faith. But please understand that Tianyuan Territory is not a free shelter. You are just an ordinary prisoner here."
"Prisoners should have the cognition of prisoners. Keep tough. Believe me, you don't want to know the consequences."
If the person standing in front of him was a senior manager of Qinggang Shelter, such as the deputy manager Tang En.
Su Mo might be interested in arguing with him and thinking of ways to slowly convince him and get more useful information.
But for just an ordinary signalman, there is no need for this.
If you don't want to say it, just go to the hard labor camp in Huanggu Village and make use of your remaining energy.
There are still many large infrastructure projects in the territory that need manpower to complete, but there are no manpower to transfer, so hard labor is just right.
Only two meals a day can squeeze out 120% of the labor force.
As for getting rid of the status of hard labor, don't even think about it in this life.
"If I tell you, will you let me go back?"
From the tone, realizing that the manager might not be talking casually, the signalman's pursed mouth suddenly opened.
"What do you think?"
Su Mo looked at him with interest.
"If you can satisfy me, not only can you go back, I will even send a troop carrier to take you back."
"But do you think you will have a good time if you go back if I am satisfied?"
The mole man is still simple after all.
Especially the larger the shelter, the more you can see the half-understanding purity from them.
Yes, very pure stupidity.
They seem to be missing something in their brains, lacking the intrigues rooted in the depths of human nature.
"I want to go back because my wife and son are still there."
Hearing Su Mo's words, the signalman was stunned for a moment, but finally replied honestly.
"Okay, it depends on your performance."
Su Mo nodded, and his eyes swept over the other people.
Osmond understood immediately, and quickly took the two of them to push the door and leave.
"I am a signalman belonging to the Fourth Corps of the Qinggang Army. My name is Archer, Jimmy Archer."
"Very good." Motioning the other party to sit down, Su Mo smiled and went straight to the point: "I need you to provide complete data of the Qinggang Army, including the number of people, arrangement, and combat style. If you don't know other corps, it doesn't matter. I will decide when you can go back based on the value of the information you provide."
People with weaknesses are easy to grasp.
Although this approach is somewhat unethical, Su Mo can't care too much at this time.
The enemy's second wave of attack may come at any time. In order to defend and minimize losses, he has even contacted the Tiger Hunter to form a Western Suburbs Alliance to resist.
Now we need to know the detailed information of the other party as soon as possible to formulate a targeted response plan.
By then, it is very likely to have a miraculous effect.
"Master Administrator, you don't have to worry so much. We have no plan to invade your territory in a targeted manner. This surprise attack is just to find the industrial core. If there are no unexpected circumstances, based on the strength shown by your territory, Qinggang Shelter will be happy to resolve the previous conflicts."
"This is not what I want to hear. Just get to the point." Su Mo glanced at the handwriting on the paper and said casually after confirming that the signalman was really writing the message of the Qinggang Army.
"What I mean is that if you can help Qinggang Shelter find the stolen industrial core, we may become permanent partners, closer than the connection between your shelter and Pingtan Shelter."
Aqier was silent for a few seconds, but finally chose to speak out his inner thoughts.
"To be honest, I don't understand why the commander asked us to launch an attack on other shelters in the city. Obviously, the industrial core was stolen by the looters. Why must the whole city become the current chaos and let us ordinary soldiers go through life and death?"
Su Mo raised his eyebrows slightly.
"So you don't want to participate in the war?"
"Of course." Aqir shook his head and said sincerely: "We have sacrificed too many friends and partners in the previous wave of undead invasion. No one is willing to participate in such a meaningless war."
"I don't mean to lie to you. This is true. Many people in our Qinggang Army don't understand why we have to launch an attack. But the duty of a soldier is to obey orders, and we can only act according to the commander's orders."
It's okay if no one wants to participate.
Are all the soldiers in Qinggang so unique?
Su Mo didn't completely believe all the words from this guy, but on the other hand, it is still necessary to fight for "righteousness" before launching a war.
In this regard, Liu Huangshu did a better job.
Whether it is invasion or defense, he can find the necessity of war from various angles, so that every soldier has a sense of mission.
On the other hand, the excuse of looking for the industrial core in the Qinggang shelter is really untenable.
"If he is telling the truth, then the importance of the Western Suburbs Alliance is not so urgent."
"Maybe we can maintain the ambiguity for a while and fight for more benefits and shares for the territory."
Thinking of this.
Su Mo distractedly opened the game panel and wanted to send a message to the messenger in front through the chat channel.
But after the interface was opened, several unread messages that he had not had time to check made him a little surprised.
"Huh? Why did this guy Hunter come in person?"
"And Aldridge, he is here too? Isn't it said that these mole managers are very timid?"
Abandoned streets in the east of the western suburbs of Qinggang City.
The whistling wind blew away the fog, causing the visible distance to soar to 20 meters.
The gap on the ground opened, first an ordinary model of troop carrier drove out, and then a decent gray-green tank drove up from the ground, and the ground creaked under the tracks.
The thick gun barrel was lying on the ground, which was quite deterrent.
Even many of the nearby Pingtan residents who were cleaning up the aftermath of the battlefield turned their heads and looked over with awe on their faces.
In front of such a heavy vehicle, the power of an individual human being is not worth mentioning.
Even if dozens of rockets are fired on it, the heavy armor can protect the safety of the crew inside.
The hatch on the top of the tank opened, and the Hunter wearing a power armor poked his head out, waved his hand very showily, and signaled the surrounding residents not to panic.
"Let's go, go to Tianyuan Shelter!"
The Hunter gave a loud order, and the two vehicles turned around and drove east.
In theory, it was a bit rude to bring such a guy with you for the first formal deployment. After all, the two sides were going to discuss an alliance, not to negotiate on the battlefield.
But now the situation is a bit complicated. In order to prevent the Qinggang Army from "appearing" at any time, he had to resort to this last resort.
The tank drove through the suburbs and soon entered the edge of the city.
I remember that it seemed to be a few years ago that I last stepped out of the city.
Since becoming the manager of Pingtan, Hunter has become less and less fond of going out, especially to unknown areas.
Now looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, he observed curiously, just like the first time he stepped onto the battlefield.
Well, the meaning is roughly the same.
Liehu comforted himself in his heart.
As a manager, this is the first time he has officially visited other shelters to discuss cooperation.
And it was the other party who took the initiative to initiate the "invitation", which means something completely different.
In the past, other shelters in the city looked down on him as a manager who got to the top by "special means".
Even the small shelters ranked at the bottom, on the surface, were very respectful, but secretly obeyed and disobeyed.
In order to get rid of these prejudices, Liehu did not hesitate to change his name to Pingtan.
However, the effect was not satisfactory. This name was still like a shackle, tightly wrapped around him.
To this day, more than ten years have passed, and there is no sign of loosening.
"Everyone, hold your chest high. We are about to reach the enemy's territory. Don't lose face for our Pingtan Shelter!"
After shouting in the communicator, Liehu took a few deep breaths, still feeling nervous.
But soon, his attention was attracted by the scene in the wilderness.
On the boundless plain, a wall stretched out on the ground.
There were figures walking back and forth on the wall. When they saw two vehicles coming, they had already issued a light warning.
Although in terms of visual shock, this wall is completely inferior to the lightning wall of Qinggang Shelter.
But in terms of psychological shock, Liehu felt that this wall was simply amazing!
After all, after passing this wall, the area behind is no longer within the scope of Qinggang City.
There will be another new place, a place that has not been marked on all the shelter maps before!
Of course, it will also be the place where his management career officially starts!
