Chapter 104: Preparing for War (I)
After eating lunch in a hurry, Yang Xiaoqian quickly flipped through the information and reports submitted by Fang Yu, as well as the photos and videos taken by his mobile phone. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It can be seen that the number and strength of the mutants are gradually rising, and what is even more worrying is that their combat IQ is still growing.
Thankfully, the Dawning team brought back more than just bad news.
On the way back, Yu Qian, Fangyu and others successively found and successfully brought back two awakened people, one of whom was carrying several beautiful women, and the other was traveling alone.
With a few beautiful women, the awakened person who used the identity of a superpower to open the harem was named Hu Wenchao, before the disaster, he was an unknown worker from Yuanjiang City, and he did not act recklessly after awakening his ability, and those women voluntarily followed him in order to survive.
When Yu Qian found him, he was besieged by several mutants and almost died, but he still didn't give up on those women and fled alone, but he was a man, Yang Xiaoqian thought that after ideological education, he could consider being assigned to the Dawning Squad.
Another awakened person who can be invisible is named Cao Ming, with a mysterious origin and few words, so Yu Qian Fangyu knows very little about him. It's just worth noting that it wasn't Yu Qian who found him, but he took the initiative to find the Dawning Team and expressed his desire to become one of them.
"Looks suspicious, you need to be careful." Yang Xiaoqian let out a long sigh and gently pressed his temples with the tips of his thumbs, which was his usual way of decompressing recently.
Now the two newcomers should have been properly settled, but I don't know if Yu Qian can suppress them - before Yu Qian gives up, Yang Xiaoqian doesn't plan to interfere too much, as long as Yu Qian doesn't make a big incident, he won't break the promise that "the matter of the Awakened is due to Qian".
When the twilight obscured the tail of the day, a sumptuous banquet was held in the lobby of the hotel, which has now been converted into the welcome room of the Far Rescue Society, to welcome the return of the warriors and the addition of new companions.
Yang Xiaoqian could see that Hu Wenchao and Cao Ming were both people with their own opinions, and it was difficult to fool them in a few words, so he didn't talk too much and didn't introduce them to the Far Rescue Association, but simply said some polite words, and instead focused on Fang Yu and others, after all, they were the protagonists tonight.
The banquet lasted until the early hours of the morning, consuming a lot of precious ingredients, but there was little waste, the first cleaning staff would share the remaining dishes, if a dish had not been eaten, the lunch box would be packed and distributed to the third-class residents who had worked hard in the past few days as a reward, no matter how prominent and noble their status was before, now they will not waste any food, and will definitely lick the plate cleaner than washing.
At this time, the superiority of the second-class residents was manifested, and the second-class residents who were promoted for their good behavior on the day of the Dawning team's departure not only had enough food, but also comfortable accommodation, and even took a five-minute hot bath once a week, such a luxurious treatment was unimaginable for those third-class residents who had not seen meat for more than a month, and were so hungry that their eyes were green and licked their plates.
Although the banquet was lively. Yang Xiaoqian lost her appetite, left the table early, packed three or two side dishes and brought them to the office, and chatted with her father Yang Yan while drinking, which was a rare relaxing night.
"Xiaoqian, you tell me the truth, how is the situation now? What are your plans for the future? Yang Yan spit out the truth after drinking, and threw out all the words that he usually didn't dare to think about and didn't want to ask, "You say, if the disaster passes and the dome disappears, will the country come to you for trouble?" You...... You've killed a lot of people. ”
"Of course they'll come to me, but it shouldn't be too difficult. If you want to talk about killing, the 258 Brigade has killed much more than me, don't worry. After all, the law is the rule of man, as long as I am willing to serve the country and the people, everything is easy to say. You must know that the Awakened Now is a rare species that only exists in Yuanjiang. Yang Xiaoqian was drunk and replied with a smile.
"As for the current situation, to be honest, it's not optimistic." Yang Xiaoqian stood up, staggered out a map of the Yuanjiang River, spread it out, pointed to the map and said, "Well, the red part is the territory of the 258 Brigade, the black area is the danger zone, and the green spot is our paradise island." ”
"And those gray areas and white lines?" Yang Yan looked at the map and asked.
"The white line is the safe route recorded during the two outings, of course, this is not accurate for the time being, no one knows where the mutants and corpses will migrate, the gray part is the gray area that I guessed based on the oral accounts of those refugees and fugitives. There may be other emerging forces, and these gray areas are where we consider engaging next. Yang Xiaoqian explained, "The 258 Brigade has a limited number of people, and it is impossible to complete the expansion of the new army overnight. ”
"Oh!" Yang Yan nodded abruptly, and then pointed to a gray area surrounded by green lines next to the green spot, "This is?" ”
"Jiangxin Island was the first base camp I considered, but I later gave up because I was afraid of the government. Now, it's time to reconsider taking it, I've already said hello to the 258 Brigade, as long as Liu Yuanzhou nods and endorses, we can rest assured that we will take Jiangxin Island. ”
The wrinkles at the corners of Yang Yan's eyes suddenly tightened, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked worriedly, "You want to fight again?" ”
"Poof, haha." Yang Xiaoqian, who was amused, hurriedly shook his head and said, "If you don't fight, the 258 Brigade Group is called a war against mutants and corpses, and our dozens of people are fighting in the village, and it is not a war." Don't worry, Dad, it's just the preparation stage, don't you know my personality? If you are not sure, you will never do it. ”
"Are you going, then?" As a "selfish" father, Yang Yan's first reaction was only to think about his son's safety.
Without hesitation, without hesitation, Yang Xiaoqian nodded and said, "I must go." The permanent population of Jiangxin Island plus the number of tourists coming and going may reach 8,000 to 10,000, even if only one-fifth of them become zombies, there will be nearly 2,000 numbers, and the mutant ...... must be considered."
Speaking of this, finding that his father's expression was solemn, Yang Xiaoqian immediately stopped, and after thinking about it, he continued: "It is not easy to recover Jiangxin Island, you must go all out, as the only awakened person on the Paradise Island who has opened the two chains, the president of the Far Salvation Association, I must go." ”
Yang Yan knew that now his son was carrying a major mission, and the lives of hundreds of people were only tied to his thoughts, so he had to keep silent and drink with his head down.
After three rounds of drinking, and then three rounds, Yang Yan was already drunk like mud, Zhang Xinyi brought a few waiters and helped Yang Yan back to his suite, while Zhang Xinyi herself held a bowl of decanting soup and handed it to Yang Xiaoqian.
