Chapter 624: Wu Zhengting's concession
Chu Ge's face flushed.
He is not a pawn who can be rounded and flattened by anyone now, even in the face of the commander of the crow unit parachuted down from above, he also has a bit of the ruthlessness of the head snake, in the final analysis, everyone is a brother unit, and he can complete the task together, he can obey the command of Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, but it does not mean that he is willing to become a chess piece in the hands of Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, especially a chess piece who knows nothing.
"Since you have already decided, then why should you let me take the national teacher to visit and study?"
Chu Ge said in an accentuated tone, "My time is also very precious - there are still many tasks waiting for me to complete by the very association, there are several advertising videos waiting for me to shoot in the Xiuzhen Club, and there are also female fans waiting for me to sign autographs, which can be lined up all the way from the city center to the high-tech development zone, you can say it early if you don't agree with my contact plan, so leave me alone and keep me in the dark, what's the matter?" โ
"I'm sorry, this matter was also just decided, and I didn't deliberately hide your meaning in advance."
Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting didn't have the slightest sense of apology on his face, but said lightly, "Originally, I did plan to give you and the national teacher another ten days and half a month, hoping to use more flexible means to conduct more polygraph analysis and psychological sketching on it."
"However, we just got the news, I'm afraid we don't have so much time."
Chu Ge was slightly stunned: "What do you mean by not having so much time?" โ
"We've just spotted the rats that are living underground, and there's a lot more insect motweed."
Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting explained, "The specific situation is not yet known, the situation in the underground is very chaotic, in short, the so-called 'Rat Civilization' still exists, but their old nests, the 'Fangs Kingdom' and the 'Luminous City' are in danger, it seems that the underground insect tide has come to an unscrupulous outbreak after losing the command of the snake demon and the restriction of the Celestial Laboratory."
"These mutant insects that have just erupted, they don't have much wisdom and lack effective command, but they are extremely numerous, and the degree of mutation is quite terrifying, although they are still in a state of headless flies for the time being, and there is no sign of rushing out of the ground, but as their number grows geometrically, and the underground resources are rapidly exhausted, rushing out of the ground is their only choice.
"Our soldiers have had some contact with the runaway insect influx.
"In the face of the facts, I have to admit that you are right - in the damp, cramped, dark, oxygen-deprived and structurally unstable underground world, the power of our steel torrents and bullet storms has been reduced to a minimum, and it is difficult to curb the breeding trend of wild insects.
"Therefore, we need these intelligent rats to recover their organization and combat effectiveness as soon as possible, and build a strong defense line in front of the humans, at least until we come up with a countermeasure against the mutant insect tide and the most sophisticated secret weapon to arrive in Lingshan City.
"Now, you should understand, the leaderless rat civilization is bound to be unable to stop the insect tide for too long, and the national teacher is the backbone of the rat civilization, we don't have ten days and half a month to slowly test the loyalty of the national teacher, we can only make this decision, with the simplest and rude method, to know its position."
Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting's words contain too much information.
Chu Ge was stunned for a while before digesting and absorbing it.
"Rat Civilization...... Got it? โ
Chu Ge was also happy and worried, "So, have you found Bai Ye?" โ
"Right now, everything is still unknown, and even if our scouts who go deep into the ground really catch a few talking mice, the other party is in a state of panic, and it will not be able to establish effective communication."
Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting said, "When the time comes, it is indispensable for you, the 'Rat Clan Communication Expert', to personally explore the first-hand news, and cooperate with the national teacher to make the Rat Clan work for mankind." โ
"Wait."
Chu Ge stared at Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting and said, "Do you believe in the loyalty of the national teacher?" Didn't you hear what it said? Its wisdom is far beyond your imagination, and it has long since seen through our 'double temptation'! The reason why it bit the throat of the demon beast so hard was because it knew that you had been coldly snooping on it from a distance, was that true loyalty? โ
"I don't need it to have 'true loyalty,' and there's never been such a thing as 'true loyalty' in this world, especially between two different races."
Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting said, "I just need it to be smart enough, to understand its own situation, to know how to choose a path that is most beneficial to itself, and that's enough, as the so-called 'those who know the times are Junjie', now it seems that although it is just a dog, it is more aware of current affairs than many dizzy and enthusiastic humans."
"I know the current affairs and am so useful, I have no reason not to spare its life and squeeze out its maximum use value."
"So, you're going to put it back underground?"
Chu Ge said, "Then, what kind of way are you going to let it regain control of the rat clan?" โ
"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious, maybe it's even more so for a loyal dog."
Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting said, "In this regard, you and I are not experts, it is, I think the method it used is good, only by letting the rat clan fear us like a god, they can not be afraid of death, go forward one after another, liver and brain." โ
Chu Ge only felt that his brain was "buzzing", and his cerebral blood vessels were like hot dragons, opening his teeth and dancing his claws on the cerebral cortex.
"So, you're still going to use its old waysโdeception and enslavement?" Chu Ge muttered.
"What's the problem?"
Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting's voice was still as hard as a bullet and as sharp as a dagger, "Listen, you should know my experience and attitude, as far as my heart is concerned, I am extremely unwilling to be in the same room with these snakes, insects, rats, ants, and ghosts, and let them spread terrible viruses and bacteria to pollute our world, if there is the slightest possibility, I am willing to burn them all to ashes with raging flames, even if I have to use my own blood as fuel."
"To be honest, when I set out on my journey to Lingshan City, my intention was the same, to eliminate all these beasts at any cost and by any means, whether they were bugs or rats, cats or dogs.
"But you have convinced me that you have been deeply moved by your first-hand information on life and death and your explanation of a better future, and for the first time in my life, I have decided to take a small step back in front of you and adopt your opinion of 'using the rats for the time being instead of completely exterminating them'.
"Congratulations, Brother Chu, I'm not a person who is used to making concessions, if my comrades in the army heard that you had convinced me, they would have to applaud you, so what else are you dissatisfied?"
Although the attitude of these words is tough, the content cannot be wrong, and Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting is indeed not a person who is accustomed to making concessions.
But Chu Ge still did not hesitate to throw out his own opinion: "You should know that what I mean by 'communication and cooperation' does not mean 'deception and enslavement', in my conversation with the national teacher, it has been made very clear that continuing to deceive the rat clan with the lies of the so-called god worship can only be exchanged for temporary benefits, but it will leave endless troubles."
"Just imagine, in the past, we didn't know about the existence of the National Teacher, and all the deception and enslavement can be blamed on the National Teacher and the Celestial Organization, even if the truth is revealed one day, the Rat Civilization has no reason to hate the Earth Alliance.
"But if we know the deception of the national teacher, but we don't know it, and even deliberately instigate it to blow the bubble of deception bigger and bigger, and then let countless rat tribes dedicate their lives to this lie, when the truth is revealed, how will the remaining rat tribes view us, how should human civilization and rat civilization coexist peacefully!
"Between two different intelligent races, it is difficult to reach trust, the slightest carelessness, the chain of suspicion will tie each other to death, drag into the abyss of common destruction, I don't want the initial contact between human civilization and rat civilization to start in such a deceitful way, otherwise, even if we can really temporarily deceive the rat race to eliminate the insect tide, we will only create an enemy for ourselves that is even more terrible than the insect tide!"
"So, in your opinion, how should we be 'open and honest'?"
In the face of Chu Ge's aggressiveness, Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting was still as calm as a sea of ice, "You also said that the communication between humans and the rat clan is more difficult than ascending to the sky, not to mention that the national teacher has deceived the rat clan, and the celestial organization that trains the national teacher is indeed a member of human civilization, and time is limited, how do you resolve the suspicions between each other, how to explain to the rat clan the difference between the Earth Alliance and the celestial and human organization, and most importantly, how to drive thousands of rat clans to be willing to die in the face of the overwhelming insect tide in order to keep Lingshan City on the ground?" โ
