Liang Jin and Chu Zhongtian rushed to the scene as quickly as possible, and as expected, Fang Jianguo and Chen Rongyuan, who had been avoiding them since the afternoon, were there.
"Don't mess with them yet, wait until the matter is dealt with." Chu Zhongtian grabbed Liang Jin.
The matter is actually very simple, there are more than 200,000 Jianghai citizens stranded outside the high-walled construction site, they have no food or water, and they have abandoned their hiding places to come here, hoping to enter the inner city, which they think is extremely safe.
However, Fang Jianguo strictly ordered the armed police force not to release anyone without permission into the inner city.
He did so for a reason.
First of all, this was part of the implementation of Plan 1, which was issued by the previous emergency command and issued a city-wide order. Only soldiers who fought on the front lines or professionals involved in the construction of the walls and their families were allowed to enter the inner city, which was one of the basic means of motivating them. If anyone were able to enter the inner city without paying anything, it would mean that the privileges promised to these people would be meaningless, and could even affect the implementation of future plans.
Second, there are nearly 20 million people in Jianghai City, including the floating population, and although it is roughly estimated that more than 30 percent of the population has been lost in just a few days, there are still more than 10 million residents scattered throughout the city. It would have been a huge challenge to just settle them down, let alone build a high wall at the same time.
Thirdly, in Plan 1, if one of the defenses fails, the inhabitants scattered throughout the city will become outcasts, which will be used to attract and delay the invasion of monsters, and buy time to build a new defense. They have used the construction of high walls as an excuse to bring all the people they can use closer to the inner city, so these remaining people have become dispensable. If they were to survive after the walls were built, they would be part of the human resources and incorporated into the city, but until then, their only role would have been to serve as bait. This, of course, cannot be made public, so in any official document they are listed as militia and an important part of the city's defense system.
Finally, the emergency reserves of Jianghai Inner City are limited, and fewer people to share them may be able to support it for a longer time. This may be cruel, but it is also a very real problem.
With such considerations, Fang Jianguo finally issued such an order.
After there are no barricades to control the streets, and the higher authorities no longer rescue and control them, many people leave the streets and the shelters designated by the police station, and with the only possessions they have, they drag their families to the inner city, and accumulate more and more.
As they run out of food and water, they become more and more desperate and irritable.
As the sky darkened again, their anger finally exploded when a group of soldiers withdrawn from the front line entered the inner city.
The immediate cause of the incident is no longer traceable, perhaps it was that an agitated demonstrator fired a firearm, which immediately triggered the use of force by an over-nervous armed police soldier, but the result of the incident was real, more than 100 demonstrators died, and five times the number was injured.
But more crucially, the people of the inner city and the outer city began to have an irreparable hostility, and the people of the outer city also had weapons.
"We have to open the passage immediately to allow the residents who are stranded outside the walls to enter the inner city." Liang Jin said at a later meeting.
Because of the mass exodus and disappearance of high-ranking officials, officials of her level are also eligible to attend the meeting.
"That can't be." Fang Jianguo categorically rejected her proposal. "This is one of the important measures in the implementation of Plan 1, and only by treating it differently can we ensure that the soldiers on the front lines and those who build the walls put all their strength and enthusiasm into it. This is a plan approved by the central government, and no one has the right to change it. ”
"Well, at least give them some food and water, so that they can see the hope of survival." Liang Jin took a step back. "A lot of them have guns, and you don't want to see the builders and defenders of the walls often being shot to death, right?"
Fang Jianguo hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"Lao Li, you can handle this matter, I will send a detachment to assist you, you must pay attention to order, control the overall volume, and report to me every day." He said to one of the officials who was supposed to be the city government, who nodded.
Once the tone is set, the rest of the problems will be taken care of.
A field medical team was dispatched to find a suitable place outside the wall to treat the wounded, and the bodies of the victims were immediately cremated, the armed police force in the area around the wall was strengthened, and special personnel were arranged to manage and guide the refugees.
Many things are said in one sentence and done in a thousand ways, and by the time the solution finally comes out, it will be two hours later.
As soon as Fang Jianguo walked out of the conference room, he heard Liang Jin's voice shouting from behind, "Commander Fang, excuse me." ”
Although the word "deputy" was just removed, it made Fang Jianguo's mood unconsciously better.
"Lieutenant Colonel Liang, you also saw it, I'm really busy." He replied, but Liang Jin squeezed to his side while the adjutant hadn't come up yet.
"It only takes ten minutes, Commander Fang, I can explain to you on the road, and it will definitely not take up much of your time." Liang Jin tried his best to squeeze out a smile.
This was the first proposal that Chu Zhongtian proposed to her after being persuaded by her.
"Make the most of your beauty to your advantage."
Liang Jin cursed secretly in his heart, but saw Fang Jianguo finally nodded.
"This is the last time, Lieutenant Colonel Liang." He said.
"You can call me Xiaoliang, it's more kind." Liang Jin continued to smile and said.
She followed Fang Jianguo into the car, and according to the method that Chu Zhongtian and her finally finalized, she concentrated her firepower to explain the research and inference of the monster's daytime behavior, the impact of mutant bats on the construction of high walls, and the possible negative impact after the arrival of the rainy season. These things are related to the work she is responsible for, and they don't make people think that she is overstepping her authority, and they are more convincing.
In Chu Zhongtian's words, for people like Fang Jianguo, you can't sue him, what is wrong with you, how to correct it; Rather, I want to tell him what new situation there is now, what is the difference from the beginning, what consequences will be caused, although the responsibility does not lie with you, but what kind of remedial measures you can make, and finally get a better result.
Sure enough, the same thing worked much better after changing the word, at least Fang Jianguo listened to something.
"Monsters can also move normally during the day, without any effect? Is this your latest research? He unconsciously asked in a loud voice.
"Yes, Commander Fang, this is the information that the peripheral personnel just sent today, and they haven't had time to report it to the whole army yet." Liang Jin replied. "I'm more worried that the rainy season will be a big distraction for our warriors, but it will be easier for those monsters to move. If the moisture in the air is enough for monsters to be replenished, it is possible for them to even act as well during the day as they do at night. The construction of the high wall will also be affected during the rainy season, and I boldly predicted that it would be almost impossible to complete it in 20 days under these conditions. I hope you'll think about option 2 again, it's the only thing we can do now. ”
Fang Jianguo's expression was uncertain, he looked at the information in his hand repeatedly, and finally said: "Don't report this news first, wait for me to have a meeting." ”
"Thank you, Commander Fang." Liang Jin laughed heartily.
"Xiao Liang, your news is very important." Fang Jianguo thought quickly and said perfunctorily.
It was already completely dark, and the guard suddenly exclaimed, "What's that?!" ”
There was a "squeak" sound in the air, Liang Jin bent down and looked out through the car window, in the dark blue sky, one black object after another was hovering in the air.
"Mutant bats!" Her heart pounded at once.
"We've got to stop the work on the wall, it's too dangerous!" She couldn't help but grab Fang Jianguo's hand and said.
Tongues of fire began to light up on the walls and some of the surrounding tall buildings, and bullets streaked bright yellow bands of light in the air.
Several flares shot high into the sky, and under their illumination, everyone could see what was in the air.
The mutant bats pressed over like dark clouds, constantly changing their flight trajectory in the air, building strange patterns in the sky.
The Heavy didn't need to aim, and the bullets were fired directly at the most dense spots of the bats, only to see the bats that were shot falling like rain down. But there were too many of them, and the action was too much, the nearest anti-aircraft machine gun position to them was extinguished in an instant, and under the afterglow of the flares, thousands of mutated bats could be seen to pounce in an instant, and only their shrill cries and the screams of those soldiers before death were heard in the night sky.
"Commander Fang!" Liang Jin couldn't help pinching Fang Jianguo's arm harder, but he seemed to be stunned and didn't react for a long time.
Another flare was fired into the air, and more and more bats began to dive downward, and the momentum of devouring a qiē was terrifying.
There was chaos on the high walls, and cries of despair could be heard everywhere.
"Long!" The guard's voice rang out again.
A small swarm of bats swooped in their direction.
"Turn off the lights!" Liang Jin suddenly came to his senses. "Turn off the lights!" She shouted.
It was too late, and they watched as the car in front of them was hit by four or five bats, and the car paused for a moment, then rolled to the side.
Several bats rushed straight at them, and the driver slammed in the direction, but one of the bats hit the windshield headlong, breaking its neck and inserting its claws into the driver's head.
The car slammed into the side of the road and rolled on the ground before coming to a stop, the hood bouncing off and the water in the tank spraying everywhere.
"Commander Fang?" Liang Jin quickly came to her senses, she hit the back of the seat hard, the wound was pulled again, and her eyes were black in pain.
"I, I'm fine." Fang Jianguo replied in shock, his mind was a mess, in his military career, he had not encountered such a life-and-death time for a long time.
Liang Jin pushed open the somewhat deformed car door with difficulty, the driver had died on the spot, and the security guard sitting in the passenger seat fainted.
"Long?" There was a gunshot behind him, and it was the guards of the other cars who were firing at the bats that were flying over, and a few people were running over with cats on their waists.
"Carry Xiao Song out." Fang Jianguo finally regained his composure, at least on the surface, and he said to his subordinates who ran over. "Don't get tangled up with these brutes, turn off the lights and keep walking. Adjutant Zhang, you go and pass on my order, the construction of the high wall will be suspended tonight, and the heads of various departments will immediately go to the headquarters for a meeting! ”
