Chapter 949: Many Concerns, Industrial Core!
What is the best way to detect the enemy's combat effectiveness?
Of course, it is actual combat.
When the data on paper is put into real combat, there are not too many factors to consider.
Wasteland is not a game, not a place where combat effectiveness is the only thing to look at.
Are mutants weak?
Hundreds of strongmen are wearing scrap steel plates that are scrambled and stitched together from the ruins of buildings.
All the people can't even put together ten standard weapons, and the iron barrel rifles made by hand are the best.
If this data is put in the game, it is a complete scumbag, a commodity that will be killed on the battlefield.
But in the night raid tonight, the trouble they caused to the Harbor Shelter Commando was far greater than the guards of the Pingtan Shelter and the Pingtan Army that flashed behind.
On the other hand, is the Pingtan Shelter strong?
Those thousands of Pingtan Army are almost armed to the teeth, and their equipment is ridiculously well-equipped.
But facing the air raid of the Qinggang Shelter, their performance was no different from lambs to be slaughtered. They could only be shot at by others, leaving behind corpses full of resentment.
In the second half of the night after the battle, the rain that had stopped in the entire wasteland came again, slightly extinguishing the flames of war that had just been ignited.
The rolling water washed away the remaining blood on the ground, mixed with broken limbs and poured into the sewer.
This conflict war, which had no winner for the time being, was declared hastily over after both parties simply collected the corpses.
Not even a harsh word.
The retreat of the Hunting Tiger was extremely straightforward, and all the people who emerged from the ground returned to the bunker.
No matter what complaints there were, no matter how much hatred there was.
Under the mediation of the powerful Qinggang Shelter, the Qinggang City, which had just "come back to life", fell into a dead silence again.
The night rain was heavy.
A deep pit was left when the soft dirt road was stepped on.
Drizzling in the cold rain, the north wind blew past.
Compared with Qinggang City, Hope Village seemed quiet and peaceful, like a paradise.
However, every time I think of what I saw tonight.
Well-trained and armed to the teeth ground troops.
Aerial formations that crisscrossed the sky like the god of death.
Su Mo only felt that there was a flame burning in his heart!
"How is it, did Pingtan Shelter win?"
Looking at the Sun Chaser Armor flying in from the open door of Tianyuan Military Camp, Su Deben stood up quickly, and his tense body finally relaxed a little.
As a senior commander who had led hundreds of thousands of people to participate in the battle, he understood the danger of sudden battles too well.
It is easy for the two sides to get angry and escalate the battle that could have been controlled, and finally enter a completely out of control situation.
As a neighbor of Pingtan Shelter, once the war spreads to Tianyuan Territory.
The seemingly promising development trend will soon be broken and enter a vicious cycle.
"I didn't lose, but I didn't win either."
The Sun Chaser Armor began to disintegrate, and Su Mo strode out of the restraints, letting out a long breath of pent-up air in his chest.
"In the battle between Pingtan and Haigang, Pingtan was obviously stronger. Even if the latter had the first chance to sneak attack, it could not gain any obvious advantage in the frontal battle."
"Then" Su Deben was slightly puzzled, and then pointedly said: "Are there others?"
"Yes, Qinggang Shelter came out to mediate, and they are very strong!"
Looking around at the hundreds of soldiers who were dressed in equipment and ready to attack at any time, Su Mo coughed lightly.
Su Deben understood, and the two of them said no more and walked slowly into the house.
"The situation is not good. The strength of those moles in Qinggang City is far beyond our expectations."
"For example?"
"They have a whole helicopter flight formation equipped with large-caliber machine guns. Pingtan and Haigang just started fighting, and before the outcome was completely determined, they were silenced by a wave of air strikes."
"Flying formation?" Su Deben took a breath: "My goodness, did they make it themselves, or did they buy it?"
"Looking at their arrogant look, they should have made it themselves, otherwise they wouldn't be so easily pulled out to maintain order in Qinggang City."
Su Mo nodded slightly, and then said bluntly:
"The territory must develop air defense weapons as soon as possible, otherwise Qinggang will be in trouble. So once they set their sights on us, they have no ability to fight back. And judging from the situation tonight, they will hold a general meeting in seven days.
After the meeting, Qinggang City will not be peaceful in the near future. All the mole men have found that they are not on the blue planet, but in the wasteland. "
"If they are stimulated to fight outside, or the next round of disasters force these people to return to the ground from underground."
"We are around Qinggang City, friction is only a matter of time."
In the abandoned city, there is no fertile land and rich resources. It all depends on the passing caravans and the regular trade of the foundation every six months.
This model has led to the fact that the wars between the mole men have been stopped at a certain point for a long time. After the two sides have decided who is better, they will stop decisively and rarely make extreme decisions to fight to the death.
But now the situation has changed directly.
The land around Qinggang City is no longer contaminated by a large amount of nuclear radiation, and the cage that cannot be walked out has been directly opened.
If the Tianyuan Territory cannot obtain the qualifications to have an equal dialogue with the rat guys in Qinggang City before the real battle comes.
It was only a matter of time before it was carved up by these greedy gophers.
"If it's just a helicopter, it's not difficult to defend." Su Deben pondered for a moment: "As long as we have a certain number of anti-aircraft guns, we can let them know. We only need an organized machine gun team to attack high altitudes." pose a sufficient threat.
"As for the threat on the ground, it is a problem. If there is a fight, maybe we have to strategically retreat and fight at the same time, and try our best to fight guerrilla warfare to have a chance of winning."
"Guerrilla warfare?"
Sumo shook his head and said helplessly.
"I'm afraid this won't work. The sowing in the planting area has basically been completed. If we can't hold on until the next wave of grain is harvested and stored in the warehouse, even if we win the battle with the gopher guys, as long as we can't break into their bunker to grab it. Supplies are all a loss of blood.”
"On the contrary, only by persisting until this wave of food is put into storage can we have the foundation to fight a long-term battle."
The dispute with the Gopher Man can only be regarded as one of the threats in the coming time.
Counting the time with your fingers, the next disaster should not be far before the game is released.
If you can't take advantage of this precious time, accumulate as much supplies as possible.
That would count as winning the war.
Territories will also be exhausted due to too slow development speed and cannot accumulate stable advantages at all.
"In this case, we can only find a way to control the location where the battle breaks out within Qinggang City."
Su Deben pondered for a moment, and a new idea suddenly popped into his mind.
"Since Qinggang Shelter doesn't want to cause chaos in Qinggang City, how about we add fuel to the fire?"
"Yes, but the risk is too great."
"No, I mean we don't attack directly, we start from within them."
internal?
Soma was thoughtful.
If a new force suddenly appears in Qinggang City to cause trouble, they will soon be found out and exposed to the outside world.
But from within, there are disputes among the old forces.
Even if it still doesn't pose a substantial threat, as long as the situation can be messed up for a while, some precious time can be gained.
It is already a great help to Tianyuan Territory.
As for how to start
"Do you think Pingtan Shelter will swallow this breath?"
"Of course it's impossible." Su Deben said with a confident smile: "The gopher man always holds a grudge. If he fails to win the battle or something unexpected happens, he may be able to tolerate it. But the violence of Qinggang Shelter Mediation will only deepen the grievances between the two parties."
"Then let's start from Pingtan?"
"Oh? How do you get in?" Su Deben's eyes lit up, and he suddenly said: "You want to support Liu Lu?"
"Don't worry, let's see if he has any ambition and basic strength first."
Somo nodded slightly, as if he was sure.
If you want to break through the solid bunker of the flat beach shelter from the outside, even the harbor shelter, which is also a gopher man, cannot do it.
But what about from within?
As long as a breakthrough can be opened from Liu Lu and he has the mark of the Demon Soul Clan, it is entirely possible to sneak into it.
By then, as long as the hunting tiger can be killed, Li Dai will be defeated.
The Tianyuan Territory was able to occupy the first bridgehead without any effort, and gained an immeasurable industrial base and material accumulation, as well as a precious population of 60,000.
A basin of cold water was poured on his face, and Jin Dazhi slowly opened his swollen eyes.
Facing the dazzling light source, I felt the burning pain on my face.
He couldn't remember how many times he had fainted and been woken up in such a violent way.
The other party didn't rush to interrogate him, and didn't even ask any unnecessary questions.
When he woke up for the first time, he was greeted by crackling mouths that made him dizzy.
Is this the way to interrogate prisoners?
Jin Dazhi didn’t know.
But he knew that if he couldn't make some changes next, he would be greeted by another slap in the face.
"Please, don't hit me, I'm willing to confess!"
"You can ask me anything."
Unable to see clearly where the figure behind the light source was, Jin Dazhi could only turn his head and shout randomly.
Perhaps seeing his good attitude, the situation changed a little this time.
The dazzling light source was moved aside, and three masked figures appeared in the field of vision.
"Identity." The wolf mask in the middle asked.
"I am from Pingtan Shelter, the manager, Mr. Pingtan, and I am the son of my cousin's uncle's uncle."
"I have money, I have a lot of money. As long as you are willing to let me go, I am willing to contribute it all to you."
"identity."
Wolf Mask repeated again, with a hint of obvious impatience in his tone.
He tilted his head slightly, and a man holding an electric baton walked out of the darkness.
Zila.
Without any unnecessary nonsense, the man directly pounded the electric prod onto Jin Dazhi's exposed skin, bringing out a burning smell.
"ah!!!"
The severe pain and burning sensation make people feel as desperate as falling into hell.
For a moment, Jin Dazhi burst into tears of pain and shouted quickly:
"Jin Dazhi, I am Jin Dazhi, the material manager on the B-14 floor of Pingtan Shelter."
"The reason for being on the street tonight."
"I want to kill Liu Lu, the leader of the B-7 floor. He keeps a lot of evidence of my corruption. I have to kill him so that I can survive in the shelter and continue to work for Lord Pingtan."
"What to do?"
"Support the mutants. Provide them with a large amount of supplies, teach them how to use tools and weapons, and destroy the facilities of the hostile shelter."
From a high-ranking shelter executive, he suddenly became a prisoner.
Jin Dazhi's psychological defenses collapsed almost instantly.
"Do you know that the surrounding world has changed?"
"Yes, I know." Jin Dazhi nodded quickly: "Master Pingtan said that we have left the Blue Star and went to a mysterious place that humans entered hundreds of years ago."
A completely affirmative answer.
When Jin Dazhi finished speaking, the three masked men turned their heads and looked at each other, and they all saw the panic in each other's eyes.
Is it really like what the manager of Tianyuan Shelter said, that time travel is real?
"What evidence do you have?"
"The sea around Qinggang City has disappeared, replaced by a piece of land we have never set foot on. Lord Pingtan is already planning to organize some people to go outside to investigate."
"What else?"
"Nothing, I'm just an ordinary person, please, please let me go."
Seeing that the man with the electric baton was about to come up again, Jin Dazhi's eyes showed despair, and he begged for mercy again and again, wanting to retreat.
Seeing him like this, the man with the wolf mask nodded slightly.
Snap.
A current came from the handcuffs that bound Jin Dazhi, and the instant high voltage shocked him again.
The three got up, left the interrogation room, and sat down in front of a booth by the window.
Outside the window, raindrops were falling in a line.
The sound of raindrops came into the ears, which calmed people's anxious mood slightly.
"It's troublesome, it seems that we have really left Blue Star."
Taking off the mask, Sean could no longer maintain his usual calmness, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
For a caravan walking on land, this is probably the worst news.
Losing the protection of the power behind them, and losing the crushing of information.
Fortunately, they did not rashly enter the Sunny Harbor City, otherwise Luke might not be the only one injured.
"We have to set off quickly before most people react and return to the Foundation gathering point."
"The Red Spider Chariot in the Sunny Harbor Shelter is no match for them."
"If we are targeted, it will be a big trouble."
Joseph, the deputy captain of the caravan, also took off his mask, and his gloomy look vividly explained his current mood.
Half a year before the crossing, he invested 80% of his funds in a real estate of the foundation, hoping that it would appreciate in the future and save enough pension for retirement early.
But now, even if the real estate also crossed over.
In this chaotic environment, if you use your butt to think, you will fall like a dog, and all the hard-earned capital will be gone!
"The chariot is not repaired yet. If we set off rashly, it will be even more dangerous."
Luke, with a limp, has lost his former arrogance and looks like an eggplant hit by frost.
He has a dark face and seems to still have some resentment about being defeated by the "locals".
"Then speed up. Isn't that manager willing to trade with us? No matter what price he offers, as long as we can speed up, we don't mind paying several times more."
"Damn it, if those people in Sunny Harbor knew that our caravan was carrying a pre-war industrial core, even if it was only half-abandoned, they would definitely go crazy!"
