Chapter 80: An all-or-nothing choice
At present, on the line from Hong Kong City to Xiangcheng, the forces of the four large bases of Hong Kong City, Hangzhou City, Jiangcheng City, and Xiangcheng City are responsible for opening up and establishing communication with each other, while the task of the other bases is to open up a channel for the transfer of personnel and transfer the surplus personnel to the First Liberated Area.
The imperial capital where Yunxing is located has two main tasks, one is to open a passage to the north to Xuebei City in the north and accept a large number of residents from Xuebei to rush to the first liberated area, and the second task is to open another passage to the first liberated area to the south to transport population and resources into the first liberated area.
These tasks must be carried out urgently, because the resources are being depleted too quickly, and if the population is not transferred to the liberated areas in time and local production is restored, everyone will starve to death in a few months due to lack of resources.
After the plan was decided, the humans in all the liberated areas almost immediately took action, and it was a silent battle for the survival of the human race, although it was not as fierce as the fight against the monsters, but it was more about the survival of the human race.
Now that the passage to Xuebei is opened, there will basically not be much problem, and the most likely problem at the moment is the opening of the southbound passage.
Because Qi City, which was slaughtered before, is 400 kilometers away from the imperial capital and 800 kilometers away from the first liberated area, this area is geographically just between the imperial capital and the first liberated area, and it is impossible to bypass it, and the only way now is to annihilate the monster force that slaughtered Qi City, but thinking of the black and oppressive monster group when Qi City was destroyed before, everyone's heart is heavy.
Fortunately, there were already a large number of military bases near the imperial capital, and the military materials in these military bases were taken out, and then the population on the periphery of the imperial capital base was screened, and the men in their prime were all gathered and unified into the Human Liberation Army, which was divided into several routes to the south, and the goal was to engage in a war of attrition with the monster army in Qicheng.
At present, the number of people on the periphery of the imperial capital is too large, and the food is no longer enough, rather than everyone sitting here waiting to starve to death, it is better to make a desperate bet and rush to the first liberated area in the south to win a glimmer of life.
Because the population is too much, and there are many monsters in the area of Qicheng now, which are very rampant, it is impossible to transfer them all in one go, and the first wave of population transfer will arrange three million people, each wave is one million people, and the distance between each wave is one hundred kilometers, divided into multiple echelons.
Among them, the first batch of transferred population is mainly combatants, with a total number of more than one million, divided into three ways to advance at the same time, and its Eastern Route Army is 400,000 people, which is the most powerful army, but they are likely to face the group of monsters that slaughtered Qicheng, so the possibility of encountering danger is also the greatest.
Because the first batch of personnel will inevitably encounter a hard battle, a large number of elites from the imperial capital base also went together, and Yun Xing was arranged in the Eastern Route Army, with the goal of clearing the trouble when encountering terrifying creatures.
Got this combat mission, everyone's hearts are heavy, and the previous battle with monsters in the city is different, this time people are doing a wide range of movement, the transfer distance is more than 1,200 kilometers, at such a long distance, how many battles will be encountered no one can say, but it is conceivable that this road will inevitably be a bloody battle, as for the three armies of one million people, I am afraid that they have been used as a pathfinder, ready to sacrifice all.
This is a long march related to the survival of mankind, and it is also a comprehensive sweep of the monster forces in the south, although the human race may pay a huge sacrifice, but compared to this south, the monster forces along the way will also suffer a devastating blow.
After the southward expansion is over, it is estimated that the passage to the south will be much easier, and the next transfer will be much easier.
The reason why the first three groups will be so close is because the top management predicted the difficulty of the battle, and the first batch of one million people may not survive much, and they are afraid that they will fall into a series of bitter battles along the way, if only this group of people goes out, if they fall into the encirclement of the enemy, they can only wait for death on the spot.
However, if there are troops to follow up, then when the enemy is stalemate or in a predicament, the addition of new forces in the rear may turn the tide of the battle.
At present, human beings actually don't have too many choices, and there is not enough food to eat, so instead of waiting for these middle-aged people to starve to death, it is better to let them use their residual heat to make their own contributions in the battle of monsters and the struggle for the survival of their own race.
Although everyone knows their fate, after all, at the moment, people are gathering in groups, and this atmosphere is contagious and makes people's confidence high.
Yun Xing rushed to the public living area of the base the day before leaving, and saw his family, this time when he went home, he also brought the Red Snake, because of the danger of this operation, Yun Xing strongly asked to keep the Red Snake in the base, the Red Snake originally wanted to fight with him, but Yun Xing's firm determination made her have to give in.
Yun Cheng, Han Yulin, Yun Xiaoyue, and Jiang Yuyan, as non-combatants, were not among the first batch of people to go south, and they were not even among the first wave of three million transfers. They will live in the base until the north-south passage is opened and stabilized, and then they will be transferred to the First Liberation Zone.
Yun Xing sat with his family for a long time, he first introduced the red snake to his family, saw a trace of loss in Jiang Yuyan's eyes, and in front of the whole family, bluntly said that he came back this time to let the two of his women guard the house together.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuyan's heart was at the bottom, and her eyes lit up again, and at this time, Han Yulin and Yun Xiaoyue took the hand of the red snake and sat down with Jiang Yuyan to talk. Four people and women played a play, and the family suddenly became lively.
Watching a few people talking, Yun Xing walked up to Yun Cheng and talked to his father about his previous life, and talked about doing public welfare activities with his father when he was a child, just chatting casually. Later, Yunxing chatted with his mother about family life, asked about his sister's recent life, whether she had made some new friends, and finally, whispered to Jiang Yuyan for a while, he not only explained the matter between himself and the red snake, but also told Jiang Yuyan that as long as he could live, he would definitely take care of her.
Hearing Yun Xing tell about the process of understanding him and the red snake, Jiang Yuyan did not have any thoughts fluctuating, because the world has changed now, and everyone is adapting to the new rules, not to mention, Jiang Yuyan also hopes that the Jiang family can be like other big families, and continue the bloodline for the Jiang family.
That night, Yun Xing stayed at home and lived with Red Snake and Jiang Yuyan, which was somewhat ridiculous, but time was pressing, he had no time to accompany the two women alone, in fact, the two women did not stump Yun Xing, and the next morning he jumped up vigorously, completely like a person who was fine, but the two women were lying on the bed weakly, with a lazy look.
It wasn't until the third pole of the sun that the red snake and Jiang Yuyan, who had a hint of blush on their faces, knelt down to Yun Cheng and Han Yulin together with Yun Xing, completing the process of joining the Yun family. There is no time for the wedding now, Yunxing must do this, only by giving the two women a name, can there be hope in their hearts.
He has experienced countless battles in the past, but this time Yun Xing's heart is really bottomless, because he knows that the monster group he faced this time is extremely powerful, even if the human race has sent such a powerful force, but Yun Xing's heart still has no confidence.
When it was time to say goodbye, the family had countless worries and admonitions, but seeing the family members looking goodbye, a wave of pride suddenly surged in Yun Xing's chest.
"This time I will definitely arrive in the First Liberation Area alive, and I will go all out to fight for a chance to survive!" Yunxing solemnly made a promise to his family, and then left his family in great stride.
