Chapter 290 Military and Civilian Fun
In Shaxi Town at night, a large number of colorful lights are hung in the town, making the town present a festive atmosphere.
On the street, there are many barbecue stalls and roadside kitchens that are being prepared. Many soldiers in chef uniforms are busy in these temporary kitchens.
Most of the survivors are helping to decorate the streets of the town. Children can be seen everywhere, holding various small objects in their hands, laughing and running around in the town, playing.
On both sides of the street, there are many small commodity stalls, and every child can take their favorite gifts here.
There are also many daily necessities, as long as you need them, you can use labor points to exchange them here.
Today is the half-year anniversary of Cai Ruichen owning the base. Usually in the small town, on the days ending in 0 and 5 of every month, there will be market activities.
Every month from the 5th, 10th... to the 30th, it is held regularly.
It's just that today's day is a bit special, because there is a mission from the top management of the hopeful base, that is, a grand party will be held today.
Everyone will take half a day off to celebrate their present life together and welcome tomorrow's life with just the right attitude and confidence.
No one knew why such an event was held, but everyone was enthusiastic. After all, such a gathering is really rare.
Therefore, today's Shaxi Town is also decorated with lights and festoons, presenting a very harmonious atmosphere.
Especially when several truckloads of things were pulled to the town, the atmosphere became even more lively.
After an afternoon of preparations for the grand party, when the night slowly fell, the whole town was covered in red and festive colors.
Fifteen thousand people, almost all of them gathered here, on the town's two-way, eight-lane main road, under the red lanterns.
A long flowing water mat stretches from one end of the town to the other, and everyone is numbered according to their identity. found their place.
but. Even if all 15,000 people sat down in a small town that was several kilometers long, it only occupied one section.
Just when everyone started to set up bowls and chopsticks on the water mat, a large group of soldiers appeared.
The troops in uniforms lined up and walked towards the town. This made everyone in the whole town,
They couldn't help but stop what they were doing.
but. This group of soldiers did not carry weapons, they were wearing ordinary uniforms. All of them looked very tall and powerful.
When these soldiers dispersed and joined them. It was only then that many people remembered that this was not the original safe zone.
The soldiers in these bases are not the devils in those safe areas. And the title of today's party is Military and Civilian Fun.
and. They heard that the top leader of the Hope Base will also come among them. Join us all in celebrating the good life we have today.
There were 2,000 conscripts and 3,000 regular soldiers. Now that the walls and fortifications had been built, Cai Ruichen only left the necessary guards and gave the rest of the Red Police soldiers a holiday.
But they are not allowed to drink, and even in order to deal with possible emergencies, a lot of weapons and equipment are prepared outside the town. Once needed, these soldiers will be armed as soon as possible.
The reason why Cai Ruichen held such an event was to hope that the society in the base would not be too polarized.
At least, there should be no uncommunicable distance between the Red Police soldiers and these survivors.
And this problem has been common for a long time. Originally, most of the Red Police soldiers tended to be unsmiling, especially in the work they performed every day, and they didn't have any smiling faces.
When most of these survivors were in other safe areas, they were all afraid of those armed men, and they were even more afraid to touch these Red Police soldiers when they came here, for fear of offending these soldiers who didn't have any smiling faces.
But Cai Ruichen knew very well that it wasn't that these soldiers were really emotional, but that in normal times, the soldiers that the survivors came into contact with were all fully armed and had various tasks on them.
When these soldiers are not usually performing tasks, they are quite lively.
For the base to be more harmonious, it is very necessary to promote the relationship between the two parties.
After all, the polarization is too clear, and sometimes conflicts will follow.
When everyone is familiar with and mingles, it is also very beneficial for him to control these survivors.
This kind of control does not mean that Cai Ruichen is worried that these people will have different ideas, but that he wants to make them more deeply integrated into the big family of the base.
Otherwise, a group of sullen soldiers, unsmiling, and the survivors are all cautious, not daring to offend or even communicate, then there will be problems with such a structure sooner or later.
After all, over time, all kinds of suspicions will always arise as the gap widens.
Therefore, Cai Ruichen actually worked hard with good intentions. In order to make the base stable and let everyone have a real sense of belonging, he also worked very hard.
After all, holding such a get-together requires money, and you know, he usually pays a lot.
Even the air conditioner is reluctant to buy, and the resources that can be used are used as much as possible.
Today, Cai Ruichen, who was also dressed in normal uniform, had no one to follow him, so he mixed among all the soldiers and came to the small town.
Everyone here would never have imagined that, in their view, the leader of the base, who was high above the ground, would actually come among them in this way.
As for Cai Ruichen's appearance, in fact, only a few hundred people knew about it, except for Niu Daheng and the batch of slaves purchased by the Dongxia Safe Zone, no one else knew about it.
Here, there are no photos of Cai Ruichen, most of them are just heard, their leader is very young.
In addition, Cai Ruichen looked about the same age as those five thousand soldiers, so he didn't even look troublesome when he arrived.
Cai Ruichen, who was wearing regular clothes and a military cap, didn't have that so-called superior temperament, nor did he have the aura of a protagonist, and he didn't have the so-called arrogance.
The only difference from the uniforms worn by the soldiers was that there was no military rank on his uniform, only a golden line embellished it.
But under the red lantern, no one noticed his difference.
Cai Ruichen, who blended into the crowd, communicated with everyone around him. At first, these survivors were still a little uncomfortable.
When they found out that they usually looked like big soldiers with stinky faces, but they were actually quite friendly, they all began to let go.
The atmosphere quickly rose again, with 5,000 soldiers, 15,000 survivors, and 20,000 people getting excited here. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
