As the sun rises overhead, the central plaza is leveled beyond recognition by construction vehicles. The dust kicked up obscured the bright sun.

The central square turned into gray ruins, and the citizens who came to watch left one after another with sighs.

It is not to say that the square is demolished, but the citizens are very obedient and actively cooperate with the official action.

The central square has stood here for more than 200 years, and after so many years of ups and downs, it will be demolished. Moreover, the government did not publicize it in advance, let alone solicit the opinions of the public. It was like an unsuspecting nightmare, caught off guard, too suddenly.

The public must have doubts. They came up one by one.

The government has prepared in advance and specially arranged for commentators to answer questions on the spot.

Citizens listen to the narrator. I didn't understand the significance of demolishing the central square. Regardless of whether they agree with the official explanation, or if it is not good to keep the square, the demolition must be carried out.

The citizens also expressed some new students, but the rumors were too small to raise morale.

People with ulterior motives mixed in with the citizens were originally going to make things bigger. However, look at the site tightly deployed. The most important point is that the official actually arranged an on-site commentary to immediately answer the questions raised by the citizens.

How difficult is it to make a move?

The obedient citizens left, and the group of hidden rebels had no choice but to leave.

Of course, the police don't eat soft rice. They have been closely monitoring the actions of the citizens, and they have noticed that someone has unusual movements, and within three minutes, such and such person must be "invited" to a "private office" to rest.

The demolition of the central plaza was successfully completed, and the citizens left with a calm heart.

The official parties also evacuated one by one.

In addition to the construction team, security personnel.

The last to leave was the military.

The soldier shouted "one, two, one......", shook the heavens and the earth, and set off in a mighty way.

A group of recruits followed closely behind Bai Lian, running, and returning to the barracks.

"My Queen!" Ma Jun wanted to change to king, but found that he couldn't change his title for a while, "Everything is normal, right?" ”

"There is nothing wrong with it." Bai Lian said thoughtfully, "However, the demolition operation went smoothly. I always felt unsure, something was wrong. ”

"Why do you say that?" Ma Jun felt that if he demolished a central square, why should he pay so much attention.

Isn't it just a square? There are many squares in Nandong City, and there is no need to make a fuss about demolishing one.

Of course, he just thought to himself.

"The central plaza is so important to the South East Side." Bai Lian let go of her thoughtful face, "The demolition action is not public, just come up and do it." With such an abrupt action, the citizens of Nandong City had to react. However, after the narrator's preaching, the citizens did not react much. ”

"Maybe the citizens hate this square too, because their husbands, wives, and children died in that place. It's not very good to keep such a bloody square. ”

"I hope so." Bai Lian changed the subject, "What do you think of our army now?" ”

Bai Lian couldn't wait anymore and wanted to fight out.

At present, on the side of Dongzhou, the flames of war have burned. Since the White Market broke through the South East City and established the White Kingdom, many cities have been unable to bear it.

The mayors are right. A small white market has successfully taken control of the large city of Nandongcheng, can the mayors of other cities not be impressed?

The impulse that had been suppressed was ignited.

One after another, the mayors got their hands dirty.

Guns and cannons between neighboring cities, spewing hunting flames.

"Our army, lack of navy and air force." Ma Jun said, "The navy and air force can only protect the country at present. If two cities are besieged at the same time, the two teams will struggle a bit. ”

"Yes! This is a difficult point. Bai Lian said, "Our troops are still very weak in combat effectiveness. It's really worrying! ”

"My Queen! We should have no problem defending our homeland. ”

"I'm going to find a way to form an alliance with other cities."

"My Queen! IMHO, this is the stupidest approach. Ma Jun said very seriously, "The list of the white and red mayors is vivid. How can we forget the lesson of blood? As an outsider, I also think that Mayor Baihong was beheaded, which is a pity. Not to mention the citizens of the White Market. Think about it, if you again offer to ally with other cities. Will the citizens of the White Market agree? And I'm sure some of the citizens of Nandongcheng won't agree either. ”

Ma Jun's words are harsh, but they are also true.

Bai Lian didn't expect it to be so deep for a while. She just thinks that the war is spreading, between the cities I fight you, you fight me. In such a turbulent situation, if you have a rock-like ally, maybe you can put the time to fight the world on the agenda

。

And at present, the military strength of the whole country of Belarus is too difficult to fight out.

Although he repelled the surging Antarctic Army and the Northern and Southern Army, the reason for this has to be said to be an element of luck.

If these two armies make a comeback, if they want to repel them in a short time, they will have to put a question mark.

Bai Lian only mentioned the alliance.

When I think of this strategy, the other biggest factor. Jiangzhou City and Shushan City, the two cities have expressed their positions.

This is the biggest factor for White Lotus to consider the alliance.

Helplessly, the two cities are too far away from the White Kingdom.

One is separated by the ocean, and the other is separated by many, many cities.

Hearing Ma Jun's words, Bai Lian had to rethink it.

"My Queen!" Ma Jun interrupted Bai Lian, who was in deep thought, "Besides, the White Kingdom has two cities, and with the current military strength, it would be good for our soldiers to be able to defend the two cities." After the alliance, one side wants to send troops, and we have to draw part of the military strength. ”

"Yes! You did a good job of analyzing. Bai Lian said, "You think so, and everyone else must think so too." I won't talk about it with anyone else. We have to step up our training. Strong soldiers are the king. ”

"My Queen! At the moment we have 300,000 troops, and I want to expand them. ”

Ma Jun said this question. It's not that White Lotus hasn't thought about it. However, the situation does not seem to allow it.

After several major wars, the White Market also went through wars, and the population of both cities decreased to varying degrees.

The South East Side is good, the new population is always online, and the white market is old.

Most of the newborns in Baishi are from the people brought by Ma Jun. It is unrealistic to rely on the original citizens of the White City, as well as the more than one million slaves who emigrated from Nandongcheng. Because the body structure of the slaves was severely damaged, the proportion of the population that was able to have children was very low.

For the time being, it is difficult to expand the number of soldiers. It is necessary not only to ensure the soldiers, but also to take into account other aspects of development.

Population, for the white country, is far from enough.

"Chief! We may only be able to maintain about 300,000 troops. Bai Lian said, "The total population of the White Country is more than 95 million, and the young and the old are divided in half. Moreover, our large-scale military expansion in Nandongcheng will also cause instability among the citizens. ”

Bai Lian considered that Nandong City had newly recruited about 300,000 people (more than 100,000 soldiers in Baishi had all returned to Baishi), all of whom were people from Nandong City.

If you recruit new recruits, there is a risk that there will be flaws in the audit.

For the time being, the White State must follow the path of "good soldiers, not large numbers".

"My Queen! If we don't recruit more soldiers, we will have to fight the weather, and it will be a long time. ”

"Chief! At present, we will restore the productive forces first, and when all the citizens of Nandongcheng agree with the White State, it will not be too late for us to expand the army. ”

The two had in-depth discussions on military training, strategy, and other aspects.

It wasn't until the evening that Bai Lian left the barracks.

Lying on the bed, Bai Lian unconsciously remembered her father.
