After the city defenders set up a warning range, the workers engaged in production in the Black Earth City came out one after another to dispose of the corpses of alien creatures on the ground, and there were also special people to transport the corpses of the soldiers killed in battle back to the city.

From the sky, people are like ants, on one side is a group of homeless people who eat meat raw, and on the other side are workers working, with a clear division of labor and no interference with each other.

Everyone was silent, the battle was won, and the corpses of so many alien creatures were harvested, and they could replenish food and weapons, but no one could laugh.

Because the price of victory, too heavy.

It was so heavy that every death weighed heavily on my heart, and it was indescribably depressing.

Some people will even secretly envy those soldiers who died in battle, in this collapsed world, death, perhaps, is a relief.

"Everyone's morale is not high. ”

On the city wall, the man who always had an unknown smile on the corner of his mouth looked at the busy scene under the city with a clear division of labor, and his face was slightly solemn, which was meaningful.

Annan stood beside the middle-aged man, and glanced at the middle-aged man beside him when he heard the words.

This middle-aged man is the adjutant who holds important power in the army in the city, and there are not many people who can laugh in this dilapidated apocalypse, and this adjutant is one of them, and he is also the kind of person who smiles all the time, which makes Annan curious about the adjutant's thoughts.

Seeing that the adjutant couldn't laugh today, Annan faintly gloated.

The adjutant was the second person in the army, responsible for commanding the city defenders, and Annan, who was in charge of the garrison, was at the same level, and at the end of the battle, the two stood on the city wall to check the battle.

"Xia Fu, don't say this kind of meaningless words, alien creatures are coming on a large scale, not counting the injured people, there are four or five hundred brothers killed in the battle alone, after this battle, half a year of recuperation may not be able to recover, everyone's mood is not high, that's for sure. Annan sneered.

Adjutant Xia Nu ignored Annan's sarcastic tone, stretched out two fingers and said lightly: "Two years, it will take at least two years for us to get over this breath, thousands of wounded people need to be treated, and four or five hundred families will have to be paid pensions, and they have to rely on the city to support them, which is a huge consumption." ”

Annan listened to Xia Nu's analysis, and snorted heavily, "If I knew this, I should have listened to me in the first place, and from time to time I would go out of the city to wipe out all the strange creatures nearby, and I wouldn't have let this group of beasts accumulate such a huge number." ”

"Recently, several nearby security zones have fallen one after another, the situation outside is complicated and unknown, we sent troops to clear it, the effect of sending fewer troops is not great, and if it is ambushed and calculated by someone with a heart, I am afraid that the black soil city will not be protected. Xia Nu said.

"Speaking of which, you just like to shrink in this black soil city, learn the shrinking turtle, just think about relying on this hard shell, forever like this, how can the warriors grow, the warriors have no wildness, and the combat effectiveness will never go up. ”

Annan took the opportunity to put forward the idea of 'going out to train troops' again, but Xia Nu remained silent and ignored Annan's proposal.

Half of the five men of the city lord, the deputy city lord, the chief officer, the adjutant, and Annan must agree to all the actions of the army, and at least two more of Annan's proposals must be approved.

The city lord coordinates the overall situation, the deputy city lord is in charge of production and materials, and the actions of the military department are actually planned by the chief officer Xia Jiayue, the adjutant Xia Nu, and the Tuwei superintendent Tong Annan.

Xia Nu disagreed, basically there was no hope for this matter.

Annan's proposal was rejected, and his heart became angry, but it was inconvenient to have a seizure, so he turned around and left without saying a word.

"I'm going to buy a batch of equipment, and I've got all the carcasses of the bone-thorn lizards and the green-scaled snakes. ”

Annan's unmistakable voice floated up from under the stone steps and reached Xia Nu's ears.

Xia Nu shook his head and said regretfully: "The strength is good, and the cultivation talent is also good, but it's a pity that he is a puppet, and he can't conspire with him." ”

Annan's cultivation talent is indeed good, otherwise he would not have led the Shu Tuwei composed of all the initiators, relying on absolute strength to crush them.

However, Annan is more than brave, lacks strategy, and is good at cultivation, but not good at leading troops to fight, which is also the main reason why Xia Nu repeatedly insisted on not letting Annan go out to clean up alien creatures.

Black Earth City is short of materials, talents, and weapons, and it is overstretched everywhere, and it can't afford to lose any of the last elite soldiers of the Guardians.

It's a pity that there is really no strong man with both wisdom and courage who can replace Annan, so that the Black Earth City has combat power, but it can only rest on its own feet and shrink and consume.

"It's not easy to get a thousand troops, and it's even harder to find a general. ”

If there is a general, with the reserves of Black Earth City, you can really consider going out to clear it.

As long as the snowball rolls, the strength of Black Earth City can gradually grow, and it will not fall into such a passive situation, causing the situation in Black Earth City to deteriorate.

"It's hard. ”

After this battle, Xia Nu only felt that his shoulders were heavier.

The road ahead is bumpy, and the people of this city should go from here.

Annan walked down the city wall angrily, came to the outside of the city with the Guard, and said with a cold face: "Go, tell them to transport the corpses of the Bone Thorn Lizard and the Green Scale Snake to the Garrison Guard." ”

The men were given orders, and Annan walked around the city alone.

Suddenly, there was a commotion, and Annan turned his head to see that there was a little commotion on the side of the homeless.

It seems that there is not enough food, and the homeless people are fighting too fiercely, and there is a conflict with the city defenders of Black Earth City.

Seeing this, the surrounding city defenders all rushed over, pushing at the homeless, to drive the homeless people over.

The homeless people thought that they were so hungry that they were not even afraid of the city defenders in the face of food, and they actually confronted the city defenders when they came and went.

Many of the homeless people did not think it was a big deal, and there were some full-time homeless organizations mixed in to make a fuss, and without orders, the city defenders did not dare to kill the homeless people indiscriminately, and they were very embarrassed.

There are more and more displaced people and city defenders pouring over, and there is a big gap in the defensive front on the periphery, and many workers in Black Earth City have no protection, and they are all beginning to fear that a strange creature will suddenly appear, and it will be difficult to work.

Seeing this, Annan's face became even more gloomy, and he rushed over and directly pulled out the long knife on the waist of a city defender soldier, raised the knife in his hand, and aimed it at the few mobs who deliberately hurt people just now.

Several human heads fell to the ground, and when they saw blood, the displaced people were immediately frightened and scattered.

Order was restored, and Annan inadvertently looked up at Xia Nu on the city wall.

It is the order of the city lord not to kill the homeless indiscriminately, and there are still many homeless forces in this barren land, which should not be underestimated.

The original intention of the city lord was to try not to offend this group of wandering wanderers unless necessary.

Don't lose the soldiers, sacrifice a little favor, and be able to do each other's well water without violating the river water.

Annan made a move, although it was forced by the situation, but if Xia Nu reported to the top, the city lord would investigate it, and he would not be able to run away with a reprimand.

Xia Nu didn't speak, Yaoyao gave Annan a thumbs up, and then turned one hundred and eighty degrees, facing down.

"As always, I like to taunt, duh, self-righteous guys. ”

The corners of Annan's mouth twitched, and Xia Nu joked, which means that this matter has been revealed, as long as you don't make a small report.

Annan is not afraid of being reprimanded by the city lord, but as the commander of the Tuwei Guard, it is not a matter to be scolded by the city lord all the time.

The outcasts were given fewer corpses of alien creatures, and the competition became more intense, and the frail elderly, women and children, the wounded and the disabled, were immediately driven to the fringe, and could only eat some dirty food that no one wanted.

Even so, those who couldn't grab food still didn't dislike it, picked up the flesh mixed with sludge and blood and still had fur, chewed and gnawed it hard, straightened their necks and swallowed it into their stomachs.

Food is energy, it is life, without food, there will be no power, in this treacherous world, no power means death.

At this time, the texture and taste of the food is simply a joke, as long as it can be eaten, it can absorb and digest into power, it is the most delicious delicacy.
