My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! Chapter 652: 4 lines of linkage, the eve of the darkest!
Chapter 655 Four-line linkage, the eve of darkness!
The end of the calendar May 11th is the one hundred and thirty-first day since human beings came to the wasteland, and it is the third last day before the great cooling disaster.
After returning from the investigation of the two peaks belonging to the origin territory, after confirming the major premise of "rescue".
Su Mo picked up his clothes, lay down on the bed again and began to close his eyes and meditate, thinking carefully about the means he still had in hand to break the situation.
Judging from the current situation, it must be an unrealistic assumption to save everyone.
First, the supplies needed by 30,000 people are really too much, and it takes a full 150,000 catties of food for just five days to be barely enough.
And this is not counting the cost of relocating these people in the future.
Secondly, not all of these 30,000 people are normal people who are pure-minded and want to live peacefully in the last days.
Among them, the cubs who embezzled ordinary refugee hot soup like yesterday are not worth saving at all.
If these people can be screened out, they will be excluded from the scope of rescue.
Not only can it make preliminary preparations for bringing people back to the territory, but it can also greatly reduce the difficulty of rescue and the demand for materials.
"Is there any way that I can not only get this part of the list of people, but also get a batch of supplies?"
Thinking about it.
Exclude one by one.
Take out all the methods on paper, and after thinking and choosing, just when Su Mo has some ideas, the noise outside the window starts to rise.
You must know that the location of Sanyuan Inn is off-center.
There can be noise here, which naturally means that there must be many people.
"Huh? It's only seven o'clock."
Standing up curiously, Su Mo pushed open the window, and after just looking at it, he couldn't help but stand in front of the window.
Early in the morning, it was only early seven o'clock.
The street below the Sanyuan Hotel was already full of people standing, and there were refugees carrying bags everywhere.
In front of the three trading rooms in the origin camp, there was already a mighty long queue, and the sound of rumbling chatter spread around.
Over ninety-nine percent of these people are ordinary people living here.
On weekdays, due to the exchange time of the issued origin currency, most people save it first, and only spare a day to exchange it when needed.
But now, after they have accumulated half a month of origin coins, on the eve of this terrible disaster, after the uneven distribution of broth yesterday, they were stimulated.
These people also began to realize that the iron piece is useless in their hands.
In the night of hunger and cold, only the supplies at hand are real!
It's not a run, it's better than a run.
More than 20,000 people gathered in the small village buildings, blocking almost every main road.
Under such a prosperous scene, the business of most shops can only be temporarily closed to make way for these people.
Even the places where street stalls were set up in the past were filled with the feet of passers-by, and there was no place to rest and sit.
Of course, if the previous material theft was just a fantasy, or if the lost materials were all recovered.
The scene today will not affect anything, but will unite the hearts of the people to a certain extent.
But if the supplies are no longer there, there are so many people blocking the exchange.
End, it seems that there is only one left.
Sanyuan Hotel.
It was not long after 7:30, and the door of the room located in the center of the second floor, including the entire walkway on the second floor, was also full of people.
Different from the crowd waiting in line outside to exchange supplies, these people all looked solemn and serious.
In addition, they are neatly dressed, and they faintly respect the person in the middle.
The momentum pressed down, some idle passengers who were still hanging around on the first floor and joking, suddenly shut their mouths, only dared to sneak a glance from time to time, guessing in their hearts what happened.
In such a stagnant atmosphere, another ten minutes passed.
A middle-aged man standing in the middle of the crowd came out with a troubled expression on his face, as if he was going all out, he gently put his hand on the door.
dong.
咚咚
It was obviously a knock on a wooden door, but the sound seemed to be knocking on the hearts of everyone who heard the sound.
Waiting for the reaction inside the door, the time outside the door seemed to be extremely long.
The atmosphere that was still stagnant just now has risen to another level, and the air seems to have stagnated.
But fortunately, this time did not last long.
Following two or three seconds later, there was a sound of please come in from the room, and the tense atmosphere outside suddenly relaxed!
Wow.
The door of the room was pushed open, and the four people standing in the front row glanced to the side, then quickly dodged in, and closed the door again.
"Hey, director, you."
The first time, after seeing clearly the people inside, Feng Long couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
I imagined that Sumo was sitting at the table blankly, with a tangled expression on his face, and the scene where it was difficult to choose did not happen.
It's the same as usual.
Standing by the window, although Su Mo's face was filled with emotion and contemplation, but there was a little wavering from yesterday.
Obviously, after a night of deliberation, Su Mo had already made a decision in his heart.
"I think about it, we can sit back and watch some people in this city and let them fend for themselves"
“But there are some hard-working and diligent ordinary people, they shouldn’t be sacrificed so fearlessly”
Pointing to the downstairs who are observing the rules, taking out a water bottle from time to time to take a sip to relieve the refugees who are in the stomach.
Su Mo turned his head with a serious face.
"If these people can be brought back to our territory, they will be of great help to the future development"
"As long as you pay a small amount of materials, they can become the cornerstone of our grassroots construction, making the development of the village and the territory five times faster, more than ten times faster"
"And, with the life in the origin territory as a comparison, we only need to successfully rescue these people and bring them back"
"It's worth the risk!" Su Mo said in a deep voice.
If you want to gain benefits in the chaotic wasteland of the end of the world, some risks must be taken.
The difference is only in the size of the risk.
He risked his life and death to fight against the alien race, to compare with the pseudo-god fighting method behind the alien race.
At present, the risks brought by this rescue are not dared to bear.
Then when encountering a life-and-death crisis, how can you have the courage to confront it head-on?
“Sure enough..”
Seeing Su Mo's serious look, Feng Tianmin, Feng Long, Guan Yu'an, and Du Shi were all convinced, and their hearts were relieved.
Last night, several people were still determined to leave the place of trouble. They first put their own safety first, and recruited refugees as a supplement.
But when they returned to their room at night, after thinking about it carefully, they also discovered the problem with their thinking.
It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
In the current situation, hiding outside is indeed to avoid the limelight for a while, avoiding the most chaotic time.
But standing outside, can you really watch the camp of 30,000 people turn into a slaughter field, and then wait until the dust settles to harvest the "trophies"?
Ask their hearts, and all four of them have answers.
"Boss, I'm telling you the truth, even if you don't say anything today, we will still make suggestions to save these ordinary people as much as possible."
“Me too!”
"Director, the mistakes made by those beasts really shouldn't be attributed to ordinary people"
"You order, we will do it immediately!"
With Su Mo directly setting the tone, the four of them opened their mouths and spoke directly.
It's just that, right now, it's not enough just to have an attitude.
Based on last night's thinking, none of them thought of a way to break the situation.
It’s like: who to save, how to save, how to arrange for the remaining people after saving, how to deal with other people, etc., I still don’t have the slightest idea.
However.
"Okay, since we have the same opinion, there is no need to waste time to continue thinking"
"Feng Long, after the support from our snow mountain base camp arrives, you immediately bring two teams over there to capture the bounty hunter who watched us earlier. I'll get them all, don't let any one go, tie all of them to me outside the territory of origin, and I'll wait for you at the snow mountain base camp"
"Tianmin, take two teams and set up surveillance near the main peak. If Sun Bahu wants to leave, it is unrealistic to move these resources away silently. Once he has a tendency to leave, immediately Inform me, remember, don't have a direct confrontation with him, you must wait until I come over!"
"Chang'an, in this chaotic situation, even if Sun Bahu had set up a sentry before, it might not be effective at this time. The places where people are not allowed to enter, as well as all the places where people are imprisoned, have to be searched carefully with the adventurous mechanic to see if you can find your brother Guanshan or Marshal Wang."
"Du Shi, your task is the heaviest and the hardest. I will give you three teams. You can contact Huang Bing as quickly as possible, and try to infiltrate the guards of the territory for me. No matter what you use I agree with the means, if someone resists during this process, if it is found out that he has no criminal record before, just knock him out and tie him up, if he has a criminal record, he will be killed on the spot!"
A detailed plan has been brewing in Su Mo's mind for a long time.
Speaking it from the mouth at this time, it became more and more clear.
Catching bounty hunters can understand the secrets in the origin territory as quickly as possible, grasp the channels for them to obtain information, and monitor the changes in the entire origin territory in another dark way.
Monitoring Sun Bahu can prevent him from taking away too much supplies, turning the entire Origin Territory into a black hole with zero supplies.
At the same time, you can also see if the other party can catch them by surprise when they are most concerned.
Controlling the city defense of the Origin Territory is to be prepared to prevent the sudden mutiny in the territory, and the people who are still active in the city will be trapped and unable to escape.
As for finding Marshal Wang and Guan Shan, this was Su Mo's attempt. After all, the two disappeared without leaving a trace.
In addition to the mystery of them, maybe if you find them, you can get the way and means to break the situation.
“Yes!”
Four lines, with a clear division of labor, go hand in hand.
Having won the task respectively, the four of them couldn't help but look at each other, with joy and surprise overflowing on their faces.
In such a complicated situation, I am afraid of hesitating, not being able to make up my mind and wasting time.
But Sumo, in this situation, can think so clearly.
Immediately, everyone took the task one by one, and after discussing the specific execution for a while, they left one after another.
Soon, the soldiers staying in the Sanyuan Hotel were also taken away, leaving only five people to follow Sumo to carry out strategic maneuvers.
"It's time, I should go too!"
Finally stood by the window, and glanced through the gap at the crowd that had begun to faintly erupt in riots.
Su Mo took a deep breath, returned to the head of the bed and put everything away, opened the door and left quietly with the rest of the soldiers.
From now on, the Origin Territory will enter the first and possibly the last darkest moment since its creation.
Not surprisingly, these places can still maintain their original intentions at the beginning, but gradually began to expand in various places.
It is bound to be the first place to be "attacked" after ordinary refugees find out the truth.
The interests they had previously occupied, under the iron fist of the collective will, spit out ten times, a hundred times.
If he continued to stay here, although he was not afraid of being relocated and hated, but with the idea that one more thing is worse than one thing less, Su Mo finally chose to retreat.
Origin Territory, a large stone house near the east gate.
Hou Tielong stood at the door with a complex expression, looking at the crowd swarming in the distance.
In the past, I knew his bad name.
The place in front of the stone house is extremely deserted, and few people dare to come here to "play wild".
But yesterday and today, his place was extremely lively, and at a glance, it was full of heads.
Continue to watch for a while, upset by the noise, Hou Tielong simply opened the door again and went back into the house.
Seeing him coming in, a man covered in flesh and blood rushed up to meet him.
"Brother Long, all the materials are ready and can be transported out through the secret passage we dug at any time"
"The brothers from Sanyuan Hotel will be back soon, if we want to leave, we can leave anytime"
"Good!"
Hearing the good news, Hou Tielong's boredom was relieved at last.
In the bounty hunter business, you need to be well-informed.
Through these news, he has already discovered something is wrong these days.
The first thing that bears the brunt is that the previously handed-in prisoner bounty will start to be issued in the form of origin coins, and physical supplies will no longer be issued.
Original currency exchange materials, also began to set a personal daily limit, and can not be exchanged all at once.
But just these two points, there is no definite evidence, so it is not enough for him to be so cautious and anxious.
The main reason why he made such a decision was that after the battle on the main peak yesterday, several captains who were in charge of managing the warehouse materials all mysteriously disappeared.
The aides whom Sun Bahu regarded as his confidants before, also ended up the same as those who caused troubles in the origin territory before, disappearing without a trace overnight.
Including the vice-captain of the guard who is familiar with him and who usually wants to wear a pair of pants, he also changed his face in the morning, and asked him to go back and wait for news before he said a few words, don't worry.
Combining these doubts, it is not difficult for Hou Tielong to guess what is going wrong in the origin territory.
Although no definite evidence was obtained, before the big drop in temperature came, he decided to take the supplies out of the city first, go outside to avoid the limelight, and it would not be too late to come back after the dust settled.
As for finding the whereabouts of Marshal Wang and receiving the huge bounty, we can only leave it for later.
"There are too many people now, we will start evacuating immediately after the sun goes down"
"I have a hunch that this time the temperature has dropped, and the city may not be as peaceful as before!"
looked worriedly at the desk and the thick pile of documents on the bookshelf behind him.
After Hou Tielong finished speaking, he immediately frowned and said again: "How many times have I said that intelligence is the foundation of our survival. As long as we have them, even if the territory of origin changes again, we will all have a chance to make a comeback"
"Hurry up, these ordinary intelligence can't be ignored, pack them with the supplies for me, and take them all away!"
"Okay, Brother Long!"
After being reprimanded for a few words, the men in the house who were still packing had no choice but to put down their work first, then turned their heads and began to carry the information again.
For a long while, I kept staring at all the documents, which were packed into boxes by the big men, and tied together by hemp rope.
Hou Tielong first frowned and just wanted to praise a few words, but then he half clenched his fists, half lying on the chair pretending to be nonchalant, squinting and looking out the window.
"These people, maybe it's time to pick one!"
When everything is going well, these powerful men under him will respect him.
But once something goes wrong, these people will reveal their true nature, and they are stubborn and difficult to tame.
Bring it to the secret base to consume the supplies that have been prepared, it is better to kill it directly.
can not only save some supplies, but also avoid the risk of being betrayed.
Wait until the environment in the origin territory is stable, and then come back to recruit people. With a lot of supplies, are you afraid that no one will be able to take the bait?
"And, kill them, you can continue to gather some supplies, and spend this winter more comfortably!"
Finding the last reason to convince himself, Hou Tielong was completely excited.
In the age of civilization, it is not easy to support a large group of people, let alone in the last days.
Recently, in order to collect more supplies for the winter~IndoMTL.com~, his hair has turned gray from worry.
But now, if there is a wave of layoffs, they can still inherit the legacy of these people.
It is tantamount to making money at both ends. Are you afraid that you will not be able to survive this winter?
"Done!"
With a roar in his heart, Hou Tielong sat up straight.
However.
Just when he was about to stand up and call for his cronies, the door of the stone house was kicked open from the outside, making a roar.
Subconsciously, feeling the danger approaching, Hou Tielong went directly to the hidden compartment of the table.
But alas.
Before he could make a move, the figure who came in from the door directly held a handful of objects exuding icy aura, and violently hit him on the forehead.
At the same time, a question that was so cold to the bone also popped out of the other party's mouth.
"You?"
"Is it Hou Tielong?"
