"And I heard that the army of the manager over there has been exhausted, and there may be a large-scale recruitment of soldiers in the near future!"

"Soldiers? Crazy, right? I'm not going to let them fight...... Besides, are those rebels so fierce? Wiped out all the troops in Vault 188? ”

The two of them walked away while chatting, and Qi Lin asked the stall owner with interest: "Boss, what are those two people talking about, what's wrong with Vault 188?" ”

The boss who sells firearms parts and Qi Lin are also old acquaintances, seeing him ask like this, he pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a dirty big gold tooth, and said with a wry smile: "It's not an uprising, the rebels first blew up the material warehouse, and then robbed the rich area, and now they are entrenched in the bunker on the periphery of the rich area, I heard that more than 2,000 people have died over there, and the corpses have not had time to deal with them, and they stink to death." ”

"Supplies warehouse? Didn't the rebels themselves have nothing to eat? Qi Lin was a little puzzled.

"How come, don't you know, the materials in the rich area are not less than those in the warehouse, those in the warehouse are all distributed to the people below, those people in the upper class, which one does not have its own small treasury, and it is all solid!"

"Even with supplies, can the rebels hold out for so long? What about the repression troops? ”

In the past, there were no examples of uprisings that attacked the rich areas, but at most, it would not take more than half a day for those rebels to be bloodied by the regular army that was completely suppressed in numbers and equipment, and there was no situation of defending the danger at all.

"Shh......h It's gossip, others don't know about it......" The boss narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully.

"How much does this part cost?" Qi Lin understood the smile, picked up a barrel from the stall that had some small flaws, but had little effect on the shooting accuracy, and asked.

"35 points." The boss replied.

This barrel, in Qi Lin's opinion, is only 30 points at most, and it seems that the extra 5 points are the so-called "message fee".

After the transaction was completed, the boss coughed and lowered his voice: "There are not many people who know about this, and the news is blocked by the top...... It is said that the leader of the uprising was the leader of the troops of Vault 188, and most of those rebels were the original regular army! ”

"The leader revolted??"

The army, in the underground world of the Vault, has always been a special existence, except for a few special forces who explore the ground, the job of the vast majority of the army is to maintain law and order and suppress the rebels.

A regular army soldier is not only fully covered by the official, that is, the management of the shelter, but also has a free quota of 25 additional resource points per day.

In general, a medium-sized shelter has an army of about 300 to 500 people, and as the leaders of these people, not only are they better treated materially, but in terms of power and social place, these leaders will definitely not lose to the big men in the rich districts.

Such a well-to-do upper-class person...... To lead an uprising?

Qi Lin felt that his brain was a little out of turn.

This is like a rich landlord with a group of people smashing and looting everywhere in his manor, shouting "fight the local tyrants, divide the land" and nonsense...... Acts that are purely harmful to oneself and others.

"yes, by the way, don't tell anyone that I told you, I don't want to be approached by the army." The boss gave Qi Lin a "you know" look, and then returned to the look of half-leaning on the recliner and smacking cigarette butts.

……

Picking up some parts from other stalls, Qi Lin reluctantly came up with an imitation AK that could use the various 7.62mm caliber bullets currently circulating in the slums, but the wooden butt and handguard were replaced by a U-shaped steel tube and a butt that was apparently broken from the M16.

With great power, low long-range accuracy, solid and grass-resistant leather, and no need for frequent maintenance, this assault rifle brought Qi Lin a net profit of a full 145 resource points.

In addition to firearms, there are all sorts of strange things for sale on the black market, but most of them are contraband prohibited by the Vault Act...... If you want to come to the black market to do legitimate business, it's just that the "Intermediate Material Market" on the surface of the "Middle Zone" charges a much lower entrance fee than the black market, and no one will have a bad brain and take a bunch of expired canned sardines from the end of the world to the black market to sell.

Of course, if you don't rule out some strange goods, there will be some strange buyers...... Just last week, an original ** that is said to be a certain first-line actress before the end of the world was auctioned at a black market auction and sold for a high price of 4,000 resource points......

Leaving the underground black market, Qi Lin went to the "Material Trading Market" in the middle area, intending to buy some canned food to improve the food, but before he got closer, he saw a huge notice posted at the gate of the trading market, and two soldiers wearing gray military uniforms and black nylon tactical vests stood in front of the bulletin with guns.

"Vault 187 Soldier Recruitment Announcement?"

When he took a closer look, Qi Lin realized that this was the recruitment statement that those passers-by talked about just now, but he didn't expect it to be posted now.

According to the announcement, in order to suppress the rebellion in Vault 188 next door, 100 soldiers need to be recruited in this vault.

Men and women of all genders, ages 16 to 45, in good health, loyal to the shelter, and a week of emergency training will be arranged after enlistment.

In addition, in addition to the original soldier benefits, all those who can be recruited this time will receive a one-time reward of 100 resource points, and they will no longer need to enforce Vault Decree No. 153.

Decree No. 153 is mandatory to enter the game "Wasteland Survival Code" and maintain at least ten hours of active time per day.

……

This recruitment order, ordinary people may not seem to have any problems, but as a veteran Qi Lin who has been on the battlefield for several years, he saw the problem at first glance-

This is not recruiting soldiers, but cannon fodder!

A week's emergency special training is at most just a good way for an ordinary person who has not been exposed to firearms to learn how to shoot and how to change ammunition, and it is estimated that all kinds of tactical movements and physical training will be ignored, and these people may not be able to hit a person even within 10 meters.

The soldiers recruited in this way are simply worse than Uncle Black who only swept around with AKs in those chaotic areas of Africa before the end of the world, at least Uncle Black still has fanatical beliefs and the spirit of not taking his own life seriously at all......

Such cannon fodder soldiers, the commander will never count on their combat effectiveness, what they have to do is to rush forward in the first batch, attract firepower for the elite troops behind, and consume the enemy's ammunition and physical strength.

As for the one-time additional subsidy, anyway, when people die, their assets will be automatically written off, and these 10,000 points are used as resource points for subsidy distribution, and it is estimated that at least after the end of the rebellion, the mastermind can recover seventy or eighty percent.
