Chapter 552 I Won't Give up, I'd Rather Die than Retreat
The most important material that the members of the Territory Alliance brought back from the No. 50 Mountain was high-quality spring water, but only they knew this, and the people in the No. 2 Territory did not know.
Zhao Ze was even more panicked, "I heard from Tang Huai that the Sufeng team recruited hundreds of refugees into the No. 2 Territory, but did not provide them with sufficient food, so those refugees formed teams to go to the Evolution Forest to gather and hunt. When they passed by the No. 4 Territory, the look in their eyes made me feel creepy."
Shi Du also said, "They used to go to the No. 50 Mountain to hunt and gather. After the No. 50 Mountain was designated as a restricted area, they could only go to the farther No. 51 or No. 52 Mountain, and they had been holding back their anger for a long time."
Qi Fu also said, "In their eyes, the few of us are soft persimmons, hiding A soft persimmon with a lot of food."
"Most of our food is in the food storage warehouse of Territory No. 1..."
Before Zhao Ze finished speaking, Qi Fu asked him back, "Did you send the supplies you recently carried back from Mountain No. 50 to Territory No. 1? Not only did we not send them, but we took out a lot of food and vegetables from the food storage warehouse of Territory No. 1 the day before yesterday. Zhou Xun, who was hiding in the northern wasteland wall of Territory No. 2 every day, saw these things clearly!"
"It's the New Year, everyone wants to eat something good..." Zhao Ze panicked and instinctively looked at the strongest ally.
Xia Qing spoke, "If their goal is to rob food, and if they have enough people and sufficient combat power, Territories No. 1, No. 8 and No. 12 with the most food will become their first choice. If they are short of people and combat power, we will be their target. "
They are quite numerous. So Territories No. 12 and No. 8 may be their invasion targets.
Zhao Ze breathed a sigh of relief, but then he started to worry about the important resources of the alliance. "Xia Qing, will the people from Territory No. 2 take advantage of our inability to leave the territory to search Mountain No. 50 and find the spring water in our valley?"
Everyone looked at Xia Qing.
Everyone must be distressed that the supplies in the territory were robbed, but if the people from Territory No. 2 found the spring water, it would mean that their lifespan and production would be reduced, which would be like taking their lives.
"The defense over there in the valley is tight, and there will definitely be no problems." Xia Qing was calm and added another valuable piece of information, "Some time ago, the Territory Management Department sent people to check the loss of farmland and sampled the crops and soil samples in everyone's territory. After they go back for testing, they will find that the content of trace element selenium in the soil in our area is high, which is selenium-rich soil."
Hiss——
Xia Qing's news shocked the lords again.
"Selenium-rich soil?" Qi Fu's voice trembled.
"Yes." Xia Qing nodded, "Selenium is an essential trace element for humans and animals. It can enhance immunity and inhibit the toxicity of heavy metals. Before the natural disaster, the people living here had just invited an agricultural research team to come and test the soil. They found that the soil here is selenium-rich. Before the village reported this good news, the natural disaster began."
Shi Zhong slapped his thigh, "No wonder I feel much better after coming to the territory!"
Kuang Qingwei's eyes sparkled, "Selenium-rich vegetables and grains, of course, cannot be sold at the price of ordinary food. We should raise the price!"
Yue Haiying didn't say anything, but it can be seen that he was also very happy.
Xia Qing broke out another more exciting news, "There is one more thing: Third Brother has tested the soil where the green light spinach grows in my territory. The soil not only has a high content of selenium, but also a high content of Yi element. It belongs to high Yi element soil. The probability of crops grown on such soil evolving is lower than that of ordinary soil. Third Brother said that the soil where the green light native crops grow in each of our territories is likely to be high Yi element soil."
Boom--
This news directly ignited everyone.
Zhao Ze jumped up, "The green light alfalfa field in my territory is also high Yi element soil?"
Xia Qing nodded, "Third Brother said that yours is also high Yi element soil, and other territories also have it, but it's just a matter of size."
Spinach in Territory No. 3, alfalfa in Territory No. 4, green light ginger in Territory No. 5, green light chives in Territory No. 6, green light water celery in Territory No. 10...
Everyone who lived in the years of natural disasters understood what high Yi element content meant. The lords were overjoyed and discussed fiercely.
Yue Haiying was relatively calm, "That is to say, our area is rich in selenium, and the matter of Gaoyi elemental soil has been known by the Lord Management Department."
Wow——
This basin of water extinguished the enthusiasm of the lords again, and the atmosphere became tense again.
Xia Qing nodded, "Third brother said that if people knew that there was Gaoyi elemental soil in our territory, they would probably shovel away the soil layer. So about the purpose of the No. 2 territory's outing this time, I have another guess, that is, they want to clear this territory and re-select their people as lords."
"They definitely can't take away the No. 1, No. 2, No. 8 and No. 12 territories. If I guess correctly, then when the beast tide passes through, they will take advantage of Captain Tan and his team's lack of time to cooperate with the teams that have not returned to the safe zone to scare us. Let us voluntarily give up the territory and return to the safe community."
Give up the territory? Impossible!
Shi Zhong asked, "Territory No. 2 belongs to the Sufeng team. If they do this, Vice Mayor Tang will also be held accountable and punished, right?"
Yue Haiying spoke up, "Territory No. 2 can put the blame on the refugees, stand with us as victims, denounce the investigation team, and replace the investigation team with their people."
Although they were unwilling to believe it, everyone understood that what Yue Haiying said was the truth. A wave of anger rose from the hearts of the lords, even overwhelming their fear.
Yue Haiying added, "Xia Qing mentioned two possibilities. I will add one more: the goal of the Liehuo team is different from that of Territory No. 2. Territory No. 2 may want to clear this territory, and may want to deal with Territory No. 1 and Territory No. 12. Liehuo's actions will be more intense."
"Liehuo is the top-ranked team in Huiyi Base. Its combat power is several times stronger than the combined combat power of Sufeng and Qinglong teams in our base. They have suffered a big setback in our territory, and they will definitely not give up this opportunity to regain their face and establish prestige. With the style of Fire Phoenix, her goal is likely to destroy this territory."
Sufeng and the others did not dare to provoke Liehuo, let alone the strongest team in Huicheng. Qi Fu was also trembling, "Brother Yue, should we report this to Captain Tan and the Territory Management Department and ask them to send more troops?"
Yue Haiying shook his head, "These are just speculations, there is no evidence. In the face of the beast tide, the base will prioritize the concentration of superior forces to protect the safe zone with a population of 1.93 million."
"Captain Tan is also aware of the current situation, so he did not accept the application for joint defense from Territory No. 2." The current situation is very tense and urgent. Xia Qing stopped talking nonsense and asked directly, "Everyone is clear about the current situation. If you are afraid and plan to give up the territory, you can leave now and withdraw from the Lord Alliance."
"I won't give up!" Zhao Ze, who was trembling with fear just now, stood up first, "I don't want to go back to the old days. Even if I die, I won't give up the territory."
"Yes, even if I die, I won't give up." Qi Fu, Kuang Qingwei, and Shi Zhong also stood up, resolutely.
Yue Haiying was the last to stand up, with a solemn face, "Territory No. 15 is the home of our group of useless people with missing limbs. We are like everyone else, we would rather die than retreat."
