Jason Morgan, who had a swelling on his forehead, felt that he was extremely unlucky.
He was originally an employee of a small factory in Fuxing City, doing statistical work. I don’t have any special skills or power, so I just do my job and receive the salary I deserve. Life is certainly much better than that of the hungry refugees in the outer city, but it is definitely not rich. He can barely live in a room in the inner city, and with his wife's job, he can barely support his three children.
After the war, his wife didn’t know what kind of evil she believed in. She felt that the new government created by the new governor was very reliable. Not only did she go in, she also persuaded him at home for two days. .
“We are literate, can count, have work experience, and can get ahead.”
“It is said that Ms. Oceana was promoted to such a high position in the beginning just because she could read. Position"
"The sooner we join, the better. The sooner we join, we may become big shots in the future."
He agreed enthusiastically. After the preliminary political review and training, He was dispatched to the Immigration Bureau of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
At that time, what he thought was that although the conditions were difficult and he had to go out to work in the city, looking at his initial rank of E9, the basic rank quota for him and his wife would be enough to support his family. People. Coupled with the salary beyond the quota, their quality of life will not be lowered at all than before.
In addition, before leaving this business trip, their director, who also just took office, encouraged them by saying that this was a very valuable experience, and if things were done well, everything would count. Meritorious performance. Those who perform the most outstandingly will apply for the Renaissance Medal, and will give priority to those who come back for promotions or promotions.
This painted cake will feed Morgan well. Plus, traveling comes with its own perks, and it’s all a plus. After returning home, he discussed it with his wife, and with her strong support, he signed up that night.
The next day, a working group was formed, and a car took a group of them to Major Perbov's army.
When dealing with the first gathering place with a population of about a thousand people, they were a little confused, encountered some difficulties, and had some twists and turns, but in the end they got things done. They were even the first group to complete the relocation work, and received a commendation from the director when reporting to the leadership telegraph.
I was so happy, but I didn’t even get any rest, so I was sent to the newly recovered Sanchi Town overnight.
Sanchi Town has a population of more than 3,000. According to the original leader of the town, the name Sanchi comes from the fact that there are three large ponds around the town, from which some aquatic products can be fished out. They mainly rely on those aquatic products. live. Some of it is eaten by oneself, and some is dried and made into dried fish and canned food for export. In addition, the location of their town is not bad, and caravans often pass by. After setting up a tavern and providing food, accommodation, leisure and entertainment services for the caravans, the whole town's life was so-so.
According to this statement, the first direction of the working group is that this town can be preserved. It can be used as a trade transfer station and three lakes with good output. It can also be used as an aquaculture site to produce food.
They began to work in this direction.
But after the on-site inspection, they quickly realized something was wrong.
It is true that there are three pools, but they are really three pools. It can't be said to be a pond, but it can be considered a very small lake if it is full to death. There is a certain amount of aquatic production, but it is obviously not well managed and the output is quite limited.
As for the tavern, there is indeed one, but the total number of rooms is probably about ten. There are about twenty tables in the lobby on the first floor, so it is probably not a trading post.
If this was a small village with only a few hundred people, the three pools and this tavern might be able to barely allow them to live a decent life.
But three thousand people
I think they would have starved to death due to this
The people in Sanchi Town lied.
Morgan didn’t understand why he lied at first, but on the third night after the army left, leaving only their working group, he saw boxes of weapons and equipment when he went out to urinate at night. , was moved out of the warehouse and when the townspeople began to arm themselves, he knew something was wrong.
This group of people actually made an appearance of unconditional surrender and loyalty when the front-footed army came, and then began to arm the troops after the back-footed army left.
Later, he saw a large number of looters entering the town, and they got along well with the townspeople.
Combined with the serious discrepancy between the industry and the population size that he had previously investigated, he finally understood that this was a den of thieves
Not to mention those three How can a small pond and a run-down tavern support 3,000 people? They don’t rely on this at all.
Returning to the trade road transit station, they did rely on the trade along the road for their meals, but the method may be a little different from what they thought before.
There is nothing wrong with opening a black shop and robberies saying that their livelihood is related to business travel.
Coupled with plundering and extorting other settlements, plus serving as a black center that helps the plunderers handle stolen goods and supplies, and serves as a foothold to harbor bandits
How can we support three thousand people like this? People, it’s not a big problem.
Jason Morgan, who was covered in cold sweat, did not dare to urinate. He was afraid of being discovered. He sneaked back into the room in fear and told six other colleagues what he had discovered.
Everyone was a little panicked.
Even when the fighting in Fuxing City was at its fiercest, they could only listen to the sound of gunfire and feel the vibrations from the orbital bombing hitting the wind farm on the outskirts of the city, and were so scared that they shivered at home.
But when it comes to real personal threats, it is not as clear as it is now.
If you continue to stay here, you will definitely die.
No matter what the looters want to do, it is obvious that they will not let them go.
The seven people discussed it and planned to escape before those guys came to trouble them and restrict their movements.
Unfortunately, it’s too late.
They are not stealth experts. They are not even soldiers. They have not received any training in this area. How can they sneak out of a town without being discovered?
In fact, , not long after they fled, they were caught.
Morgan was hit on the head by two gun butts, which made him dizzy. By the time he was almost awake, he was tied up in a room with his colleagues.
He feels regret now, very regretful.
When I chose to go on a business trip, I was blinded by the pie drawn by my boss and the extra business trip allowance.
I only saw the benefits and forgot how dangerous this wasteland is.
What to do now
"There is no other way, just wait to die."
The person who said this is quite optimistic.
A true pessimist would say, "Is there any way to commit suicide quickly and painlessly? The looters in the wasteland really eat people, and even some are perverted. In order to ensure the freshness of the meat, , and they would cut meat alive and roast it for eating."
Morgan, who had just recovered from his dizziness, was so frightened that he almost fainted again when he heard their conversation.
No, a few days ago I was enjoying a beautiful future life with my wife at home. Today you told me that I might be eaten alive
His mentality is broken.
Morgan didn’t want to die. He shook his head to think of a way, but he couldn’t think of anything. The seven of them were tied tightly and thrown on the ground. It was difficult for them to twist around like caterpillars, let alone find a way to untie them.
It was useless to untie them. They were unarmed, but there were two armed robbers guarding the door.
What to do?
I can’t think of a solution even if I try hard.
And a more desperate situation came.
He heard footsteps outside.
It seemed that a few people came over from outside, and then started talking to the guard at the door, and started to have some arguments.
Through the door wall, I can’t hear clearly, but it seems
“I’m ordered to come and kill these few, can they be buried outside?”
Morgan's face turned pale when he heard these words.
It’s over
We’re going to execute them
Just as I was thinking about this, the door was opened.
He looked at three looters with guns and walked in.
Morgan was terrified.
He felt that everything was lost.
At this time, he could only close his eyes, prepare for the arrival of death, and pray that he would die more happily later.
But at this moment, he heard the voice coming inPeople spoke.
"Leader Terrell's order requires me to kill you all."
As expected, Morgan was thinking this way.
Then he heard another twist, which made him immediately hopeful
"But I can let you go, but you must agree to one condition."
Before Morgan could speak, his companion spoke first
"What conditions?"
The visitor sighed, "Chief Terrell insists on going against Fuxing City, I I don’t agree. Is there anything wrong with taking this opportunity to clear my name and come ashore, stop looting, and live in peace and tranquility as the people of Fuxing City?”
He paused and felt a little frustrated. “It’s just, I I can't persuade him. Therefore, I have taken over the task of executing you, but I will let you go after Terrell is defeated. If I am captured, you must rescue me. If I escape, I hope you can report my rescue of you and win a place for us in the new alliance."
Morgan quickly patted his chest and said, "This is what we should do and we will definitely do it."
Several other people also gave various guarantees.
The visitor relaxed a lot and threw out some clothes. "Then put on your clothes quickly. I can find a route to arrange for my brother to send you out. I still need to find a few more clothes." Burn the body and pretend it's you. Time is running out."
Morgan and others act quickly.
While hurriedly changing his clothes, an idea came to his mind
The previous work in promoting the new alliance policy in Sanchi Town turned out to be really effective.
After changing clothes, Morgan and others were arranged to be taken out.
Before parting, Morgan hesitated, but still said, "You might as well come with us. Otherwise, if your behavior of letting us go is exposed, it will be very dangerous."
"If we go together, we won't be able to escape. You have to have my identity to cover you. As for the issue of exposure, I will be prepared."
"Okay." Since people say that , Morgan didn't force it, just asked another question
"What's your name?"
"My name is Redi Boer."
"Are the seven Redi Bol really the seven people from the new alliance?"
Facing the question from leader Terrell, no matter how much panic he felt in his heart, Bol at least did it The calm expression on his face: "Of course."
Terrell's green one eye stared at him for a while, and then turned his attention to the other men around Boer. "Then you tell me I, your Captain Bol, why must I burn the body?"
Boll opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but Terrell raised his hand to stop him.
"Shut your mouth. I didn't ask you. If you say one more word, I will kill you."
Boll could only shut up and say nothing..
However, the brothers beside him could not be like him and remain calm when facing the leader of Terrell, who was always known for his cruelty and cunning.
Terrell looked at these people who were nervous and at a loss, and showed a ferocious smile
“Speak, whoever speaks out, I will spare you a moment. Life."
Finally someone couldn't help it.
A tall and thin guy quickly distanced himself from the other brothers and said, "It was Bol Bol who persuaded us to do this. He let him go. What did he say?" Leave a way out, and you can't get things done."
As soon as these words came out, Boll and the people beside him all turned pale. Some people were fighting with each other and could hardly stand; some people opened their mouths and cursed traitors; some people made quibbles
But Bol's eyes were fixed on Terrell.
At this moment, life and death all depend on the thought of this big leader.
When the sound gradually subsided, Terrell slowly took out the gun and said, "What else do you have to say?"
Boll took a deep breath and replied "I am doing this for the sake of my brothers. If I kill them all, I will have a deadly feud. From now on"
"You will leave a way out for yourself."
Boer changed his approach and advised earnestly, "Big Chief, I have been following you for ten years. Many of my brothers back then have died, disappeared, and there are not many left alive. We have done something With such a big foundation, thousands of people are living with us, and we have also unified many surrounding tribes. We have reached the end."
"What can we do further? We have no choice. It is even more difficult for the new coalition government to fight against the previous coalition government. Didn’t you see the army that came to us before? They have armored vehicles, they have tanks, they have heavy artillery. We really have to fight against such an enemy."
"We do have much more people than them, and we can still calculate mentally and unintentionally. But even if we win, they will come with a second and third army, and we can't afford so many deaths."< /p>
"What's wrong with taking this opportunity to enter the system of the new alliance? All brothers have been settled. You can continue to lead us and be recruited by the alliance to join the army. You see Look, that Major named Perbov looks so majestic when he comes in an armored car. In the future, you might as well become a general. Wouldn’t that be great? I really don’t understand why you have to continue to be a general. Bandits and plunderers."
Boll's words are truly true.
Unfortunately Terrell was completely unmoved.
He whispered, "You're done."
"It's over."
"For the sake of your father saving my life, look. Because you have been with me for ten years, I gave you a chance to speak. You know, if you beg for mercy, I will give you a way to live. It's a pity that you can say these words. "
He pulled the trigger.
The bullet passed through Bol's head mercilessly.
The raider captain immediately fell to the sky helplessly.
Terrell looked at the other Bol's men and waved his hand in disgust, "Kill all these traitors."
There was a burst of gunfire, and no one survived.
Then Terrell turned his head again and looked at the guy who had previously reported Bol.
The man was so scared that he wet his pants. "You said you would spare my life."
"Yes." Terrell walked up to him, two Holding his head with his hand, "I said it. I will forgive your betrayal, but you killed my good nephew Boer. I never said I would forgive you for this crime."
"You"
Before the guy could say anything else, he felt a huge force coming from him.
Terrell broke his neck like this while still alive.
After the execution, some looters came up and dragged the body away, while some people continued to act as guards. Terrell turned his head, looked at the few people who had been watching the show behind him, and said with a grin
"In my life, I hate traitors the most, making everyone laugh."
"Nothing to laugh about, the big leader is still kind."
"I don't know how old Bol gave birth to such an innocent boy."
"We have been running rampant in this wilderness for so many years, relying on the guns in our hands, relying on the fact that we are more ruthless than others. If we put down the guns and become farmers, I would rather die than become workers."< /p>
Among the people behind Terrell, there were some leaders from his tribe, as well as some raider leaders he invited from elsewhere. At this moment, they all clamored and praised Terrell for his good killing.
At the same time, between their tacit understandings, there were still some words that remained unsaid.
What Bohr said is not completely unreasonable. Is the life of the looters really so easy?
They burned, killed and looted, but there had to be something for them to rob. If you meet a fat sheep, a relatively wealthy business traveler, or a survivor camp with a certain amount of savings, you can still have a full meal, but these things are not available all the time, and people will not willingly hand over the things. to them. Even if you use a gun or a knife to rob someone, someone will die.
Even if they have stronger military force, they will not dare to carry out destructive plundering of many camps, and they must learn to develop sustainably. They will ask those weak survivor camps to hand over their output. But the lives of those camps themselves are just like that, how much can they turn in? In this situation where everyone is having a hard time, the looters can't eat meat and drink every day.
Even in Sanchi Town, when the situation is bad, it is common for people to starve to death. The living will eat the dead in order to survive the famine years.
In this case, if what those clerks from the new alliance said is true, onlyIf you have to work, you can have basic food and clothing guarantees, so what’s wrong with becoming a farmer, a worker, or even a soldier
For the looters at the bottom, it is indeed That's true, but it's different for those here.
No matter how difficult the normal situation is, it can still be endured by leaders like them
No matter what, they are the rulers. They received offerings, and they commanded thousands of raiders, walking and whizzing through the wilderness at will, living happily.
Now that they have entered the new alliance, those middle- and lower-class and bottom-level predators can hide their past and live a stable life.
But what about their leaders?
Can they still direct the country and act arbitrarily?
I am afraid that is not possible.
It is almost impossible to expect the leader of a group of plunderers to consider the overall situation and the overall well-being of all his subordinates and give up his own privileges.
However, their minds are not completely controlled by selfish desires and they forget the actual situation.
Of course they know that in their current situation, even though they have thousands of guns in their hands, it is still unrealistic to confront the troops led by Perbov head-on. There are more people and more guns, but there is a serious lack of heavy firepower. There are only twenty small mountain cannons. Some individual rocket launchers can threaten those heavy armored vehicles, but the risk is too high. Even if all the people are involved, they may not be able to destroy a few vehicles. .
An anti-armor combat team does have the ability to damage an armored vehicle or tank, but the conditions are too harsh. It is not ruled out that they can quietly get closer to a distance of tens of meters, and then two or three armor-piercing rockets will hit the side armor. But the greater possibility is that they were discovered before they could even get close, and then someone came over and suddenly everyone was stunned.
Because of this, they never thought of a head-on confrontation with the New Alliance's army.
Otherwise, when Purbov led the team, they would not have had to pretend to be obedient.
In fact, Sanchi Town has to be given up.
They are not a serious settlement. Meishe can say that he doesn’t want the property, the three broken pools and the broken tavern, so he won’t want it. Pulling the man's hand out, there is nowhere to sleep in the wilderness outside
Waging guerrilla warfare, for a group of bandits who live by robbery, what's so great about it
There are no mountains here , there are some but not many in Xiaolinzi, but the most important thing is that there are a considerable number of urban ruins with a large battlefield area
That is a place more suitable for guerrilla warfare than any other terrain. .
If there is no business, do it. If there is an opportunity for an ambush, attack it. If Auntie's powerful troops come, just hide in the city. I have no home base and no foundation. Are your armored units marching into the ruins of a city to attack me? In the ruins, are some of the armored units nimble and some running fast?
However, we are really turning into the ruins. , before turning into the forest, theyThere will still be an ambush battle.
After the clerks of the New Alliance ran away, Terrell realized that Major Perbov's troops would definitely come.
Not only did he not let the team run away quickly, but he decided to fight an ambush on the road.
