Chapter 9 Principles of Bounty Exchange

This matter is a bit strange, isn't the supply line within the military exclusively for exclusive use, how can it be cut off for no reason.

"Tell Chief Wang, you are a newcomer to the city and don't know it, the current combat situation in the Panshan area is very unclear, the number and lethality of zombies are underestimated, and the strategic intent has not achieved the expected effect at all. Compared with the strategic difficulties, the logistical problems are even greater. The combat cycle and battle line have become correspondingly longer, resulting in logistics and supplies that have been unable to keep up with the rhythm! Now, it is very difficult to supply the front-line troops fighting on the front line, and the life of those of us who remain behind is even more difficult. However, this is also no way, I heard that the military focuses on the distribution of materials in the two areas of combat units and compensation bounties, so there are not so many resources to manage us. ”

Wang Qiang nodded, it turns out that this is the case, the logistics can't keep up, this battle is a feather duster.

"How many troops are still stationed in the millstone pit?" Wang Qiang asked.

"There are only seven people left here, plus me." Duan Feng replied.

"What about the men of your company? Aren't you a company commander? Wang Qiang's eyes were wide open, a company commander with six soldiers, what kind of unusual configuration is this.

"Tell Sir Wang, my troops have all been exhausted, and the number has been revoked, Shangfeng ordered me to stay here, isn't it just waiting for your incorporation." Duan Feng said with a bitter face.

"Gone?" Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment, feeling cold in his heart.

I only brought 30 big soldiers and ran to the front line! Coupled with a few soldiers and ruffians here, there are only about 40 fucking people, who have to guard a strategic location, and also have to cooperate with divisional and regimental level operations, how to fight this battle!

Although Brother Qiang'er led the troops to fight with a very poor level of business, he could still count them, and on that day in Watergate City, more than 100,000 people in the Third Corps were slaughtered by zombies overnight! Fighting with zombies, whether it is to conquer the city or hold the front is very difficult, those things, not only are not afraid of death, but also full of dense and terrifying demonism, the rampage of tens of thousands of zombies is enough to make people frightened, more than forty people are thrown into the zombie pile, and it will be finished without even a fart.

"Why are you running out of troops?" Wang Qiang couldn't help asking.

"Hey, sir, don't you know, more than a hundred people are all gone, and there are only a few of us left alive." Duan Feng told the story of what happened to the 31st Division south of the grinding stone pit some time ago, and Duan Feng's tears came as he spoke.

In this Panshan battle, Hong Laoshuai made a bloody investment and transferred three main forces from the Eastern Army with a total of 70,000 tigers to the south.

The 1st Corps in the East has three armies under its command, which are under the direct command of Hong Guochou, and the 11th Army is in the sequence of being transferred.

The 11th Army is an elite army stationed on the front line of the East Gate all the year round, and has always had the reputation of a fist team, and this army has four full-strength A combat divisions, and the 31st Division is one of them.

However, such a unit, which had been fighting on the eastern front all the year round, showed the great disadvantage of mountain warfare after arriving in the Panshan area, and in a short period of time, it suffered terrible casualties.

Earlier, the Eastern Army Corps paid a heavy price when it concentrated all its efforts on taking Fangling City, and then the Eastern Army Corps used Fangling as a large logistics base, and each unit divided its troops to advance southward.

After the 31st Special Division reached the grinding stone pit, it moved to other areas due to other operational needs, leaving the third main force regiment to use the grinding stone pit as a logistics base and continue to advance south along the road built in the old era.

The original battle plan of the 31st Special Division was to capture Wutong County, a satellite county of Baiyang City, and then cooperate with other main forces fighting on the eastern and northern fronts to encircle Baiyang City, but they didn't want to, the army marched to three kilometers outside Wutong County, and encountered a terrible zombie tide!

The environment in the Panshan area determined that the mechanized troops could not be put into large-scale combat at all, and the mountain combat even boosted the arrogance of the mutant zombies, and after a fierce battle, the third regiment left 1,800 corpses and retreated in a hurry!

The 3rd Regiment was terrified by the 60% casualties, but when it retreated, the troops were followed by a wave of zombies, and then a miserable chase began in the mountains.

In the end, the commander of the third regiment organized a death squad to blow up four mountains in one go at the cost of sacrificing the wounded and the troops behind the palace, so as to block the route chased by the zombie tide. But after this battle, the 31st Division and the 3rd Regiment were completely finished. As a logistics unit, Duan Feng's first section was naturally selected as the queen of the palace and the unit responsible for blasting.

As the saying goes, even the logistics troops are used in the war, and the battle is 100 percent lost.

It is also considered that Duan Feng had a few lives, and he escaped by luck, but he was ordered by the main force to be stationed here and wait for the reorganization of the supporting army.

……

At this time, the soldier who bought food came back, and Wang Qiang snorted and said: "Don't think about those sad things first, let's eat, eat and drink enough to have the strength to do something else." ”

So the nine big men gobbled it up, and the storm was torn.

After the meal, Wang Qiang took out a pile of ten-yuan bills and said: "The emperor is not a hungry soldier, here is your three-month soldier's salary, ten yuan a month per person, full salary, I will send them one by one." ”

After speaking, Wang Qiang personally sent the money to each soldier.

Each soldier received three months' salary, and tears flowed down his face.

In the end, Wang Qiang took out a hundred-yuan bill and handed it to Duan Feng, saying, "This is yours, by the way, why are you so happy?" ”

Duan Feng pinched the money and said with a heartfelt voice: "Chief Wang, this is the first time in recent years that this matter of full pay has happened!" ”

Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment and said, "How can this be? Won't Hong Shuai pay you a salary? ”

Duan Feng said: "Hong Shuai has paid the soldiers, but he can't stand the guys who drink the blood of the soldiers and eat the flesh of the soldiers, the money is generally almost over when it arrives here, where is their share!" ”

Wang Qiang snorted angrily: "What the hell is this, the army is bad like this, what kind of battle is it fighting, isn't this self-defeating without a fight?" ”

Duan Feng said in a lamented voice: "That's the truth, so in the current battle, the military has to rely on the mercenary group, not to mention anything else, the matter of drawing blood from the mercenary group is not so terrible, and the strict rules and regulations of the mercenary management association also safeguard the rights and interests of ordinary mercenaries and free bounty hunters." ”

Wang Qiang sighed and said to all the soldiers: "It's okay, I, Wang Qiang, have arrived here, and if I have a bite of meat to eat, I will eat you with a mouthful of meat. ”

The soldiers looked at the money in their hands, then at Wang Qiang, and cheered.

Wang Qiang threw away the meat and bones in his hand and stood up and said, "Now I issue the first order!" ”

The soldiers and Duan Feng immediately stood up and said loudly, "Please instruct the commander!" ”

Wang Qiang looked at the soldiers, thinking that the spirit of these soldiers actually still existed in their bones, so he said: "Now I announce that you will clean up the office for me in the afternoon, and I will settle in tomorrow." ”

The soldiers replied in unison: "Yes! Then I started and cleaned up.

Taking advantage of the time when the soldiers were cleaning up, Wang Qiang ordered Duan Feng and Xiao Zhong to go out together. Now, Wang Qiang wants to go to the Mercenary Management Association to take back the power that belongs to the military.

Because of the defeat of the army, the Earthfire Mercenary Group took over the town, and the bounty exchange that should have belonged to the military was inexplicably transferred to the Earthfire Mercenary Group.

Don't underestimate this bounty redemption thing, the cat in the middle is big!

The redemption criteria for bounties are set by the Alliance, the military, and the Mercenary Association.

The Alliance represents the interests of the Chambers of Commerce, the Magnates, and the Gatelord rulers, the military-controlled armies represent order and order, and the Mercenary Management Association represents the interests of all the mercenaries and bounty hunters in the Alliance.

The integration of the three powers is the most authoritative standard.

When the three forces sat together and worked out the exchange method of the bounty according to strict standards, the mercenary bounty exchange system entered the stage of history.

In general, bounties are issued by the Alliance Treasury and the Chamber of Commerce, and tasks are issued by the three parties, and are completed by armies and mercenaries, as well as bounty hunters.

There is nothing wrong with this system of bounty distribution management itself, and its implementation is also strict and flawless, but because of the vast number of combat areas, the manpower of the central bounty distribution agency has always been limited, and the management of all bounty exchange and distribution has been delegated step by step, and generally settled in the hands of the military.

The army controls the organs of violence, and it also controls money, so it also controls the initiative and order.

However, the army is also the master of the deep pockets, and generally only does big things, and many trivial things are not disdained at all, so in more remote alliance jurisdictions, the army will delegate the power of bounty exchange to the garrison mercenary group if the military allows.

This forms a chain of decentralised interest relationships, which represents a steady stream of wealth.

For example, in a remote place, Bounty Hunter A completes a mission worth a hundred dollars, and he goes to the local mercenary management association to exchange the bounty, and is likely to get only eighty dollars or less.

Where did the twenty dollars go? Of course, it has become a tap for the local mercenary group.

You will definitely say that if Lao Tzu were that bounty hunter, Lao Tzu would definitely not be so stupid as to let the pigs of the local mercenary management association get this cheap.

Yes, of course, you can choose to go to a higher-level military office to redeem the bounty, but only if you can afford to.

Walking in the wilderness can be a very dangerous thing in the post-apocalyptic world, and if Bounty Hunter A wants to get the full bounty, he has to take into account the dangers of going out to a long distance, the consumption on the road, and the unexpected situations that may be encountered, all of which need to be added to the calculation.

Of course, maybe when you get to the military office at the next level, you will find that it seems that you still can't get enough money to redeem the bounty, because the military also has to take a cut!

In this way, Bounty Hunter A is likely to find that if he is in full for a full bounty of twenty dollars, he may lose more and more, which is very uneconomical.

Therefore, Bounty Hunter A can only succumb to reality, eighty yuan is eighty yuan, it is better than nothing.

For the Mercenary Management Association, after the Mercenary Management Association in remote areas gets the bounty, it will collect it in a unified manner, and at a certain time, go to a higher-level military office to complete the unified exchange.

The mercenary group under the Mercenary Management Association will not be as weak as the freedom bounty hunters, and often a large number of loaded mercenaries will be dispatched to escort them forward after the exchange of large units, which can deal with a lot of dangers and troubles.
