Chapter 1035 Five-Ring Defense, Exchange of Interests!
Call Yehu stupid, the enemies who died under him would never think so.
As a warrior who climbed up from the bottom, every step he takes is based on hard work and there is absolutely no moisture.
Many times if you are just a little bit unlucky, you will become an unknown person who dies in the ruins.
But let's say that Yehu is smart. Many of the things he does are not only beyond the imagination of normal people, but also impossible to understand afterwards.
Just like now, I saw Aldrich arrive at Tianyuan territory first.
This guy insists on dragging the old man out for a one-on-one challenge, saying that he can only meet once and exchange past feelings.
"Ahem, being young is good."
"Xiehu, my old man can't afford to play with you like this. It's better to save your strength to deal with our common enemy."
Aldrich shook his head helplessly, pulled a few times and then quietly gave in.
But speaking of words, even if he returns to his prime of life, he will have the highest combat power.
It was impossible to take any advantage against Yehu, who was already over forty years old at this time.
As a semi-mutant, the blood flowing in Hunter Tiger's body gives him terrifying athletic abilities.
The lower limit in some aspects may be higher than the upper limit that humans can achieve after long-term training.
Coupled with the advanced power armor on his body, his combat effectiveness is even more confusing.
"This is not like your style." Yehu frowned slightly, and then laughed happily: "Our enemies have shown their fangs, and now it is time for soldiers to rule the world again!"
"Of course, I believe in your combat effectiveness, the strength of the Pingtan Army, and even more, the strength of our ally Tianyuan Sanctuary. Otherwise, it would be impossible to come here today, right?"
With a quiet compliment, Aldrich put his position in a correct position.
The younger brother in the tripartite alliance.
The reason is simple.
The location of the giant city shelter is really bad, right at the edge of the western suburbs.
If the enemy attacks again, calling for reinforcements is bound to happen.
At this time, as the boss, how could he open his mouth to ask for help from his younger brother?
On the contrary, it is only natural that the younger brother should seek help from the elder brother.
"Haha, this old guy talks nicely. He's much more comfortable than those guys in the southern suburbs."
Not taking Aldrich's change of attitude to heart, Liehu followed the preparation before coming and turned to look at Somo with a gentle tone.
"Distinguished Tianyuan Refuge Manager, I don't know if my suggestions in that meeting a few days ago affected you, but there is no doubt that you made the most correct choice in the current situation."
"Our shelter in the western suburbs is not like those little guys in the southern suburbs. They form an alliance to drag each other down, but we are joining forces. Even if Qinggang Shelter wants to take action, it has to weigh its own strength."
"I had already thought about it on the way here. Our alliance should not distinguish who is the boss and who is the second child like they do. Weak shelters must obey the orders of strong shelters. That would be really hurtful.
"The status between us should be reduced to a lower level. Is it really worth it?"
After saying the words he had been holding in his stomach for a long time in one breath, Yehu felt that his whole body was smooth.
status?
Why does Pingtan Shelter need that thing?
Everyone in this city thought that he liked to fight for power and position. He climbed up from the bottom, gaining greater power and higher status along the way. In the end, he even dared to take on the role of a shelter manager in order to become a manager. That's simply lawless.
But in fact, he believed that he was 'forced'.
If he is not the boss, there will be people who want to bully him and get benefits from him.
If he wants to be a younger brother, some people think that he is timid, that he has limitations or is simply old.
If the three parties really form an alliance, Hunter Tiger is almost certain that the enemy will use psychological warfare if they want to invade.
He knows nothing about shelter management, but that doesn't mean he's a fool when it comes to tactics and strategies.
Maybe Aldrich doesn't care who is the boss, but this young Tianyuan manager.
Hunting tigers can't help but care.
It's not all because the goods provided by Tianyuan Shelter during this period injected fresh blood into Pingtan Shelter.
But after entering behind the security wall today, this gathering place built in the wilderness gave him a sense of identity.
"This is as it should be. Mr. Pingtan said it well. Our original intention in building the alliance is indeed to help each other, not to compete for certain interests. If the division is too clear, it will hinder our cooperation."
Sumo showed a satisfied smile, looked at him and said.
"Call me Hunter Tiger. The name Pingtan always sounds weird. I haven't gotten used to it even after more than ten years."
Yehu said directly.
"If we establish an alliance, then the territory within the fifth ring road in the western suburbs of Qinggang City will become our territory, with the high ring road near the Giant City Shelter as the boundary."
"High Ring?" Aldrich shook his head quickly: "The area of the collapsed High Ring is too large. Using that as the boundary, the enemy can easily get in. It is better to use the river behind us as the boundary."
After several explorations, the layout of Qinggang City is basically clear.
Taking the Broken Bridge as the boundary, it is the terminus of the Fifth Ring Road, and further to Pingtan Shelter, it becomes the western suburbs.
The location of the Giant City Shelter is approximately two kilometers underground after passing the Broken Bridge.
There is no obstruction in the middle, they are all abandoned blocks.
However, Gaohuan is different. Most of the sections of this abandoned elevated road that leads directly to the center of Qinggang have collapsed.
The nearest complete landing point to the Giant City Shelter is about four kilometers ahead.
Defending this place means that the Giant City Shelter must be dealt with, which is obviously not a good idea.
Hearing the objection, the hunter tiger raised his voice.
"If the enemy wants to send out armored troops, the best route is through Gaohuan."
"If we don't defend that gap, we are equivalent to opening the door for the enemy to enter. This is too stupid!"
Aldridge retorted with a stiff face:
"Of course I know, but the pressure of defending there is too great. There are as many as sixteen gaps in and out of Gaohuan. Will your Pingtan Shelter send people to help? And those damn radiation beasts, Gaohuan is also their favorite place to appear."
The shape of Gaohuan on the map is an ellipse, which keeps rotating towards the center.
Along the way are large and small entrances and exits leading to different locations, and these are basically the ones that were blown up.
The real main road is well preserved because of the abundant materials and the fact that both sides of the war had to use it.
Later, the mole men hired wanderers to maintain it from time to time, and it is still usable now.
In order to defend the high ring of more than ten kilometers on the Fifth Ring Road, it is necessary to deploy defenses at sixteen entrances and exits.
Not to mention that the Giant City Shelter is not capable of doing this, it can really do it and will not waste manpower and material resources to implement it.
This behavior is simply too stupid!
However, surprisingly, Liehu still kept smiling.
Even the other people in the Pingtan Shelter who followed Liehu were a little surprised to see his current reaction.
So the manager of the family has such a good temper sometimes?
"So I said, Aldridge, you are still old" Liehu replied with a rather regretful tone.
"I never said to defend those entrances and exits."
"You know, if the enemy wants to come down from the high ring, they don't have to go through the entrance."
"But if we build a defensive line on the high ring, hey, they will have to fly over with wings!"
"What, are you crazy?"
Aldridge exclaimed, and the boldness of the hunting tiger even made him doubt whether he had heard it wrong.
Building a defensive line on the high ring, what kind of crazy idea is this?
If the enemy blocks the entrance and exit, wouldn't the soldiers on it become a turtle in a jar, and the two sides would switch offense and defense?
"Of course I'm not crazy, and this is the best way to deal with it now."
"Tianyuan manager, what do you think?"
The topic was brought to Su Mo, who had not said anything, and the two turned their heads to look over.
To be honest, defending the five rings is really meaningless for this Tianyuan shelter.
The straight-line distance between that high ring and this gathering place is at least 120 kilometers, and it will take more than three hours to arrive even if the armored vehicle is traveling at full speed.
When the enemy's main force arrives, there will be plenty of time to prepare for battle.
However, Su Mo's answer not only surprised Aldridge, but also narrowed his eyes.
"Facing the Sunny Harbor Shelter, can we only apologize like a hedgehog? You probably haven't seen the hedgehog I'm talking about. It's a strange animal that will extend the spikes on its hair when it encounters an enemy to prevent the enemy from invading. Excuse me, do we have to learn to passively defend like a hedgehog?"
"What do you mean?"
As if he heard something interesting, the tiger stopped smiling and asked.
"Do you think we should actively extend our spikes to the enemy and attack them?"
It's true that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.
Actively attack the Sunny Harbor Shelter and imitate the previous predators?
Regardless of whether the hedgehog metaphor is appropriate, the courage alone is surprising.
"Attack, defense, this is the way we should use to fight the enemy in war."
"But in fact, there may be a third choice in many cases."
Su Mo said calmly.
"They are very strong, and we are not weak either. The Qinggang Shelter may be able to defeat us head-on, but we will definitely make them pay a heavy price."
"So if both sides are clear about this, it would be a better choice to resolve the conflict in another way."
Another way?
Liehu was a little confused.
Aldridge was thoughtful.
About half a minute later, he suddenly said something that had nothing to do with what he had just said.
"Mr. Su Mo, do you know something?"
"Is it important?"
Su Mo answered without thinking.
"A direct conflict war will cause us heavy casualties. This is not Blue Star, but a wasteland full of dangers. A large number of casualties will only cause unimaginable chain reactions, leading to more terrible things."
"You have also felt it during this period. I can only say that this is far from enough."
Any hints that are more explicit will be blocked by the game. This is the limit that the territory has tested recently.
Facing the natives of Blue Star, any mention of any news about the disaster will become disordered noise.
If you try to break this limit again and again, the game will directly cancel your player's qualification.
Obviously, Aldridge is not as stupid as he appears to be. He probably understands something.
The humidity rose overnight a while ago. This horrible natural meteorological disaster is not an isolated incident.
If a war breaks out next, there will be a chain reaction that will make the disaster even worse.
And Liehu was confused. With his head full of muscles, he couldn't understand what the two were talking about.
It was only after Aldridge explained a few words that he suddenly realized.
"Let's go in and talk. As the first guest to Tianyuan Shelter, we have prepared a sumptuous banquet."
Su Mo raised his hand slightly, and the two of them were not polite and entered the hall and sat down.
Strategic defense matters can be discussed slowly.
After all, it is not that an alliance has been formed, and every member who participates must immediately help out and point the spearhead at Qinggang Shelter.
The reason for coming here is actually to discuss the exchange of interests.
Aldridge thinks this is the field he is best at. After all, the Giant City Shelter was just a small shelter at the beginning, and then it slowly developed to its current scale.
However, when it came to this stage, Liehu's performance was far beyond his expectations.
Too smart
No, it should be said that this guy finally has a brain!
"We can provide weapons, a lot of weapons. As long as you need them, Pingtan's industrial core can operate around the clock and produce tons of weapons and equipment for war!"
The war maniac is indeed extraordinary. He speaks of arms exports.
"Weapons? We don't want those outdated rifles. We need to deal with the Qinggang Shelter! At least we need to produce enough weapons for air defense so that their flying formations won't come to the western suburbs casually."
"That's no problem. As long as you can provide enough raw materials, I can produce six-mounted 40mm 'sharp needle' anti-aircraft guns. You can equip the giant city with fifty units to ensure that no bugs can fly in!"
"Crazy, it turns out that you were the one who robbed the Foundation's passing caravan before. You dared to take such a risk for a weapon blueprint?"
"Hehe, they dared to offer me three times the usual price, they should have thought of this outcome. However, I didn't admit that I did it. I bought this design at a high price from a mysterious person passing by."
"We can provide raw materials from Tianyuan, especially those I can give you the basic materials at a price that is almost free, but the price is that I need some special products from your shelter, some special products that you don't need. "
"It won't be those broken industrial waste again, right? Excuse me, if you like to collect that stuff, I can bring all the waste from the shelter to you. God knows how much space we have to store that stuff!"
"We can do that too. If you want, I can even send someone to collect some for you."
"I'd love to, but don't use the word "send" again. This is a transaction. I hope it is valuable in your eyes, not just useless waste."
"Of course, as you wish, we will send these civilized objects over."
Aldridge and Hunter looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief.
Both parties to the transaction must provide suitable goods to establish a long-term trade relationship.
But obviously, the materials they can provide are very scarce, basically just ordinary goods.
This Tianyuan Shelter not only provides a variety of food resources, extremely rich raw materials, a variety of special tools, and even information that Qinggang Shelter does not know.
It is worth it to exchange some industrial waste.
Even if they lie with their eyes open and say that those things are the most wonderful things in the world.
They are completely willing!
