Chapter 105: Preparing for War (Part II)

The second plenary meeting of the Far Relief Society was set up in the lobby of the hotel, and the former conference room could no longer accommodate the growing team. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The long table was placed horizontally on the high platform, the names of the core high-level of the Far Rescue Association were written on the table cards, a large map was hung on a mobile stand, placed directly behind the main seat, and dozens of seats were placed under the stage, the first row was the seats of the soldiers of the Dawning Squad, and then the second, third, and fourth rows of seats belonged to the Hope Team responsible for the rescue and resettlement of refugees, the administrative staff responsible for the daily command transmission and logistics, and the second-class residents who had the honor to observe the meeting.

When the sky was bright, Fang Yu came to the temporary conference hall, thinking that if nothing happened, he and Yang Xiaoqian were still the first to arrive at the conference hall, and when he walked into the revolving door, Yang Xiaoqian was really standing inside, but this time he was not alone, Secretary General Zhang Xinyi was accompanying him.

There was no greeting, no greeting, Yang Xiaoqian nodded at Fang Yu and remained silent.

Fang Yu looked up and saw two large portraits standing on the high platform, as well as several small portraits. The large portraits in the center are the two members of the team who unfortunately died when the Dawn team returned, and although Fang Yu couldn't recognize the other small portraits, he might guess that they should be the victims of the Hope team.

In the heavy atmosphere, Fang Yu put down his right hand, which was slightly raised in mid-air and was about to wave, and walked silently to his seat.

After that, every participant who walked in the door felt this unusually solemn and oppressive atmosphere at the moment of entering the door, and they all found their seats and sat down softly without saying a word.

The revolving door turned and turned, and the air seemed to freeze as the participants stepped into the room in silence.

At the last minute before the meeting, Yu Qian took a dumb person, belatedly, infected by this atmosphere, Yu Qian no longer yawned, put away his indifferent look, seriously learned the movements of others at a glance, gently pulled open the chair, slowly sat on the chair, straightened his back and did not touch the back of the chair.

"Hello comrades of the Far Rescue Association." Yang Xiaoqian, who was sitting in the first seat, stood up.

"Hm" "Whew" "Whew"

The people in the four rows of seats under the stage stood up one after another like rolling waves, and responded in unison: "Good president!" ”

Cao Ming and Hu Wenchao in the auditorium were taken aback, they had just arrived, and they only knew a thing or two about the Far Rescue Association, and they had never even heard of Yang Xiaoqian, how could they have thought of such a battle? Cao Ming made no secret of his surprise, staring at Yang Xiaoqian in a daze, his eyes shining.

"Two days ago, we welcomed back our brave warriors. It was they, regardless of their own safety and fearless of many difficulties, rushed to the dangerous area of the city and rescued a total of 92 compatriots from Yuanjiang! On behalf of all the people on Paradise Island, I pay them the highest respect. ”

As soon as Yang Xiaoqian's words fell, Wang Li, He Yu and others took the lead in applauding, and the logistics personnel under Wang Li naturally applauded hard, clapping their hands red, and the members of the Dawn Squad and the Hope Squad could not suppress the pride on their faces, and they raised their hands generously and applauded themselves and their comrades.

"Unfortunately, some of them have given their lives to protect us and our common home." Yang Xiaoqian's voice sounded in the power amplifier in the conference hall through the portable loudspeaker, making the applause fall silent for a moment, "Please let us remember their names and their appearances in our hearts." ”

After three minutes of silence without bowing his head or closing his eyes, Yang Xiaoqian continued to speak: "In order to let more people know their great deeds, in order to keep the heroes from being forgotten, we will erect a monument on Paradise Island. ”

"Maybe one day, our names will be engraved on the monument, but I am sure that none of you will be timid or deterred by this."

There was no need to respond, everyone saw the answer in each other's steadfast looks.

"Soon, a tangible monument will be erected on Paradise Island, but this is far from enough, we still need to make more efforts and sacrifices to build that invisible monument in our hearts." Yang Xiaoqian said loudly.

While Yang Xiaoqian spoke, Zhang Xinyi began to distribute materials to everyone present.

"Just yesterday, I received a letter from Mr. Liu Yuanzhou, commander-in-chief of the 258th Brigade's front-line command for corpse operations." Yang Xiaoqian opened his manuscript and said, "You can take a look at the documents in your hands, this is the news that Mr. Liu Yuanzhou painstakingly transmitted. ”

Needless to say, just the first sentence on the paper, "Dear Yuanjiang compatriots, I am Wen Weiguo", made everyone's blood boil. When they finished reading the manuscript in their hands and looked up again, Yang Xiaoqian saw a long-lost emotion on their faces: hope.

Hope is so important at this time.

In the past month, how many people have given up on themselves, chosen to kill themselves, and ended their lives? How many people have a nervous breakdown, panic all day long, and their eyes are dull every day and night? Too many to count. Because they don't know if the world beyond the dome still exists; for they do not know whether they have been abandoned by the civilized world; Because there is no hope, no matter how strong the willpower is, people dare not face the unknown tomorrow.

This letter from outside the dome undoubtedly gave a shot in the arm to the people who were hesitant in their hearts, and what made Yang Xiaoqian even more pleased was that when the light of hope entered the depths of people's hearts and swept away those dirty thoughts hidden in the dark corners, the human beings in Yuanjiang would retain some restraint and would not easily kill each other.

It is foreseeable that when Liu Yuanzhou makes this information public through a documentary, there will be fewer and fewer gray areas on those maps, and there will be fewer and fewer ugly crimes.

"I see hope in your faces, and yes, we still have hope." A bright smile bloomed on Yang Xiaoqian's tense cheeks, "The outside world is safe and sound!" As long as we hold the distant river, sooner or later, the dome will dissipate, and we will return to the heavenly and beautiful civilized world of the past! ”

"As long as we keep hope, keep the far river, our friends, our children, and our lovers, we don't have to be afraid, we don't have to live this kind of life of not eating enough and not sleeping well, and always worrying about the next second."

"In order for them to be able to bask in the warm sunshine, in order to see their carefree smiles, we must act!" Yang Xiaoqian pointed the tactical pen at Jiangxin Island on the map.

"Ahem, Paradise Island can't accommodate too many residents, and at the rate at which we're searching and rescuing refugees right now, Paradise Island will be full in three weeks at most. At that point, we will have to deal with a series of complex issues such as water supply, food, sewage, etc. According to the rhetoric that had been arranged long ago, Wang Li said for Yang Xiaoqian, "So we must plan ahead and find another place, and the most suitable place at present is another island not far from Paradise Island: Jiangxin Island." ”

"The 258 Brigade has limited resources and limited capabilities, and they can't do anything about the zombies and mutants on Jiangxin Island for the time being." After Wang Li finished speaking, Yang Xiaoqian said, "So, this problem must be solved by us." From now on, we must actively prepare for war and strive to recover Jiangxin Island as soon as possible! Next, Fang Yu, the captain of the Shuguang team, and Wang Li, the vice president of the council, are invited to introduce and explain the specific situation. ”

After speaking, Yang Xiaoqian handed Wang Li a look, then sat back in his position and listened quietly.

At this point, the second general meeting of the Far Rescue Association kicked off.
