"Hmm?"
Zhang Xiaoqiang raised his eyebrows as he looked at Huang Tingwei. He had never seen Huang Tingwei like this before. Huang Tingwei swallowed his saliva and said softly, "That young man offered to hand over 100,000 survivors to us, but he wants to pursue Miss Meow. He doesn't want to force her, he just wants a chance …"
"How long will it take for them to cross the river?
The top of the frigate is more than 30 meters wide, and it can accommodate dozens of people crossing at the same time. It will take them less than 3 minutes to cross a distance of 137 meters. In 10 minutes, we can send thousands of people at once. Why haven't they crossed the river after 6 hours? "
Zhang Xiaoqiang did not care about a mere 100,000 zombies. Not to mention that Zhuo Mingyue had a telekinesis blade that was four times stronger than before, and the little loli was like a combine harvester. No matter how many zombies there were, they would not be able to break through. Moreover, the main force of the zombies was more than 30 kilometers away, and it would take at least 3 to 5 days for them to catch up. What he was anxious about was time, and he did not have much time to waste here. In the past, he did not put much effort into managing the revival of China. He only set up a few sets of checks and balances, and let his subordinates follow the rules. Now, he could no longer do that. The longer he left, the weaker his control would become. Moreover, the enemies he would have to deal with in the future would require all of his resources and manpower to take down. Therefore, he had to unite all of China's population and resources, even if he had to resort to violence.
"This, actually, that guy made a request of us, but …" Huang Tingwei wanted to hide it, but he did not know why he felt guilty. He felt that if he interfered, the consequences would be far beyond what he could bear. In the end, he could not help but bring it up. "The development of Guanxi has been thwarted.
"The development in Guanxi has suffered a setback. Commander Three has discovered another large base with a population of more than seventy thousand. We are in the process of contacting them, but Commander Three does not think that we can accept them peacefully. That colony has a complete hierarchy, and unless we eliminate all the evolved humans and their families, they will not be able to completely integrate into the Huaxia Renaissance. In addition, they have a viral parasite that has infected all of our messengers. They want us to exchange fifty tons of food for the antidote. Commander Three has already submitted a request for war to the Hubei Military Department …"
Huang Tingwei was stunned when he heard that, and then he said, "Actually, the place they chose is not bad. Because of the Pearl River, most of the urban areas of Guangzhou are isolated in the east, and the south and west can stop the zombies from advancing. The zombies should have migrated to the north, but we do not know how they got here. If it were me, I would also stay in the south, and I can cross the river to search for resources in the city."
Zhang Xiao Qiang stood at the window of the frigate and looked at the surging river, listening to Huang Tingwei's reports. These reports were all problems that had accumulated during this period of time, problems that he had to deal with personally. While he was deep in thought, the river water was mixed with the zombies' corpses, hitting the window from time to time, making muffled sounds. They were then swept into the bottom of the frigate and washed downstream. Other than the zombies, there were also the corpses of the survivors and the corpses of the soldiers wearing the Golden Silk Rattan Armor. They were all unlucky people who had been swept down the mountain by the supernova explosion. Seeing these corpses, Zhang Xiao Qiang did not feel the slightest bit of guilt, because he wanted to save 100,000 survivors. When the number of survivors was quantified, the number of casualties was just a number in his eyes.
An unknown flame was burning in Zhang Xiaoqiang's chest. When he thought that someone wanted to take advantage of Miss Meow, all of his calmness and indifference disappeared, leaving only a kind of madness that wanted to destroy. He was originally indecisive when it came to personal relationships, and this was also the reason why he did not have much experience in relationships. Therefore, when he was not influenced by external forces, he would hesitate and find many reasons for himself. However, once he was threatened, he would become like a normal man, and at least he would not allow others to touch his things. He was never a generous person.
"Zhang Xiaoqiang, there is no need to be angry. No one can force you, and no one can force Miss Meow. Chen Qiaofeng is just a small character, and even if they cross the river, there is no way to save 100,000 survivors. Without food, without resources, they will collapse sooner or later..."
Fu Shanlin passed the latest news to Zhang Xiaoqiang through the internal call system, which made Zhang Xiaoqiang and Huang Tingwei happy at the same time. Once a power split, they would no longer have the power to resist their demands. Chen Qiaofeng's shortsightedness had finally paid off.
"There is also a problem in Yinchuan City. Zhou Xiong reported to us in private that the Democratic Alliance in Yinchuan City has gathered a group of civilians to demonstrate at the Executive Yuan. They are carrying out a non-resistance sit-in. They are asking to improve the living conditions of the workers, to shorten the working hours, and also... This matter has been suppressed by Zhou Jie, and there are more than 1500 new evolvers in the Hunter Unit. Because of the increase in the number of evolvers, the public security has begun to decline, and the crime rate of evolvers has exceeded the crime rate of civilians. I hope to establish an internal defense force of evolvers..."
According to the new rules, every evolution of zombies is worth ten times the military merits. The actual number of zombies eliminated is 13 million, and the harvested resources, vehicles, and fuel have a market value of 1.07 billion. Most of them are daily necessities, which can temporarily guarantee the three provinces' needs for ten years. So far, a total of more than 1,700 Evolutionary Solvents have been distributed, and there are more than 1,500 new evolvers in the hunter unit. Due to the increase in the number of evolvers, public security has begun to decline, and the crime rate of evolvers has exceeded the crime rate of civilians. I hope to establish an internal defense force of evolvers … "
"The Hunter Command has reported that they need a large number of airships as a means of transportation. The roads there are severely damaged, and there is a serious lack of fuel. The recovery operation is not going smoothly, and the ammunition there is starting to run out. They want Hubei to support them, but Wang Le refused. Wang Le wants them to use Hubei's crossbows, but Sichuan is not willing. Both sides are arguing..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang was silent, then he shook his head and said, "Forget it, this place is not suitable for development. Even if they establish a foothold on the other side of the river, as long as the zombies are not eliminated, they will not be able to live in peace..."
"Shut up!" With a loud shout, Zhang Xiaoqiang suddenly released a murderous aura, which formed a substantial airwave that bounced Huang Tingwei away. Huang Tingwei crashed into the wall where Zhuo Mingyue had been last time. Zhang Xiaoqiang's anger did not make Huang Tingwei afraid. Instead, he rejoiced. He did not add his own opinion, but simply stated the conditions of the big boy. If Zhang Xiaoqiang knew that he actually agreed, things would not be so simple.
Huang Tingwei's words made Zhang Xiaoqiang slowly calm down. He walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, then he turned to Huang Tingwei and said, "Tell the transport ships to hurry over. We need a large amount of food here. In addition, we also need 30 transport ships filled with soldiers and ammunition to clear Si Qing City. We need a place for the survivors here to settle down. I really don't know how that Chen Qiaofeng became the leader.
They could defend the mountain area for 5 days, but they did not think of recovering Si Qing City as a place of retreat. They are really stupid to the extreme... "
"According to our previous plan, if he tries to stop us, then kill him..." Zhang Xiaoqiang did not care about this matter. He did not care about killing innocent people. As the leader of a force, he should bear his responsibility. Previously, Zhang Xiaoqiang did not have to wait for Chen Qiaofeng to cross the river to make a move. He just wanted to use up some soldiers. After all, these soldiers were the most loyal to Chen Qiaofeng, and he did not care about these soldiers.
"Zhao Jun, who is in charge of the battle in Beijing, has reported that the vanguard has reached the Jingxi Mountain Range. There, they met the former Beijing military that controlled the radar station. They requested the Yinmeng Huaxia Renaissance to obey the central command and accept reorganization. They also requested that officers be sent to the Renaissance Army as deputy commanders and instructors. Also, they promised that after we recover Beijing, they will provide us with a batch of equipment and ammunition, but they want us to provide them with 1000 mutated horses..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang frowned and looked at the river as he questioned Huang Tingwei. The Pearl River was an insurmountable moat for Chen Qiaofeng, but it was very simple for Zhang Xiaoqiang. He just needed to sink the mobile turret on the top of the frigate, and the frigate could be used as a bridge to connect the two sides of the river. The width of the Pearl River was smaller than the length of the frigate, and the frigate that was stuck in the middle of the Pearl River was the only way for the 100,000 survivors to survive. The Supernova Bomb that exploded earlier had a diameter of more than 30 kilometers, and it had killed more than 70% of the millions of zombies that were crowded in the mountains. To the tens of millions of zombies, the Supernova Bomb was not very effective, and because they had to take care of the survivors, the explosion point was relatively far away. This left at least 100,000 zombies on the mountain top. At this time, the ones resisting were Xiao Loli, Zhuo Mingyue, and hundreds of evolvers.
"Zhang Xiaoqiang, the survivors have split up. The news of Chen Qiaofeng giving up 100,000 survivors to pursue Miss Meow has been leaked, and only a portion of evolvers are willing to follow him. A woman called Miao Luo Ci brought more than 200 evolvers to join us, and the soldiers that were abandoned before are also willing to join us with their families. The evolvers hope that we can send them to Hubei, and the army hopes that we can provide food and weapons."
"Because many of them have been starving for a few days, they do not have the strength to walk. Although we gave them food, but … but they are still too weak. In addition, they are very hesitant to accept our help. After all, the young leader is still on the other side of the river …"
Huang Tingwei had suggested to wait until the end of the crisis to make the 100,000 survivors feel grateful to them. His suggestion was effective, but to the people of the apocalypse, it was normal for Chen Qiaofeng to escape. Although there was resentment in their hearts, they did not completely reject the young man like before. This was because in the apocalypse, everyone had to consider their own lives first. Chen Qiaofeng had the identity of a local, and he had the ability that no one else could replace. This was not something that a group of outsiders could compare to. If they really wanted to subdue these people, they had to at least provide them with a safe environment, food to fill their stomachs, and hope for the future, just like in Hubei and Yin Meng. However, after the survivors had experienced the most desperate life, they would have new desires after getting everything they wanted. This was how the Alliance of Freedom came about.
