Hearing Zhou Yue's words, Duan Hong, Wang Zeng and the others couldn't help but scold in their hearts, this guy is too cunning, why do you always play this game?

Because Zhou Yue's words sound like no problem, but if you think about it carefully, it is very lacking in morality, first of all, the Northeast Military Region and the Jingbei Military Region are not short of people, the Northeast Military Region originally basically collected the entire three northeastern provinces and refugees such as North Korean sticks, at most, the total number was as high as millions of people, and it is precisely because of this huge refugee base that they are qualified to withstand the three-month onslaught of the Eight Banners Army with human flesh grinding tactics in Tieling Heicheng, and for this reason, they dragged down the Eight Banners Braided Army!

And even now, under Duan Hong of the Northeast Military Region, there are nearly 1.5 million modern people, plus more than 100,000 ancient homeless people, this is not lacking at all!

As for the Jingbei Military Region, the same is true; when it first retreated from the Beijing area, it had nearly five or six million people, and although it was later divided into several parts, the current Jingbei Military Region, with Shenyang Heicheng as the center, also has nearly two million people. ｛｝

So many modern people, in addition to picking out the best qualifications to join the army, and the next little to join the reserve militia, the rest of the part, after training to level 30, basically has no room for growth, can only let them go to farming or do something else, they are not like the ancient refugees, any one of them is skilled, such as the buns made by the ancient refugees, the bread or something, even if they are half-baked, they are all with attributes.

Therefore, what Duan Hong and Wang Zeng desire most is to obtain a large number of ancient homeless, but among the modern people, in addition to excluding the most powerful soldier groups, the rest of the modern people are chicken ribs unless they can learn some skills from the ancient homeless, such as being a restaurant buddy, an apprentice in the back kitchen, an apprentice carpenter, an apprentice blacksmith or something.

And so many idle people, they need to have something to do, otherwise there will be a lot of problems, such as fighting, bullying ancient people, etc., after all, there are nearly two million people, that is not a small number, occasionally these modern people have nothing to do and launch something like maintaining human rights, resisting dictatorship and the like, although they were all suppressed by Duan Hong and Wang Zeng in the most severe way, but the resentment in the hearts of those modern people is also accumulating.

Therefore, Duan Hong and Wang Zeng must find a way out for this part of the people who can neither develop in force nor life skills, as if stimulating domestic demand.

And the construction of Zhou Yue's Yunmeng City and the White Tiger City is the best way to stimulate domestic demand, just like the construction of high-speed rail and real estate in modern society, which can not only solve the employment problem of most of the labor force, but also create profits!

Who doesn't like this kind of good thing!

But the method proposed by Zhou Yue is quite bad, because Duan Hong and Wang Zeng are in urgent need of these projects to stimulate domestic demand, so it is inevitable to compete with each other.

Even lowering prices can be problematic.

Because the cake is so big, if you have good conditions, you can get more, if the conditions are poor, it may be empty, in this case, differences will arise between Duan Hong and Wang Zeng.

And this despicable method, Zhou Yue has already used it more than once, but the effect is very good every time.

Rao is Duan Hong and Wang Zeng are both extremely wise people, and they are also irresistible, just like a woman who can't resist the smile of a handsome guy, and it's hard to resist the goddess changing clothes in front of her. 、

Because if their power wants to develop, they can't do without gold, and where does the gold come from, they can't grab it, and it won't fall from the sky, but the material supply of Yunmeng City and White Tiger City can bring them millions of gold profits in just two months, which is enough to arm an elite army of 300,000!

However, these two people are also worthy of being cunning, after a little glance at each other, they formed an offensive and defensive alliance, and at the same time, they were secretly glad that they had already killed Yu Wenqing and Jiang Guoguo, otherwise if the Quartet competed, maybe what would be the chaos?

"Zhou Yue, your conditions are too harsh, we can't agree, if according to what you said, divide the supply of Yunmeng City and White Tiger City into twenty parts, then wouldn't the two of us each have to provide you with 50,000 coolies, your little abacus is inevitably too loud, population is the most important development resource today, you better change the conditions, right?" Duan Hong said in a deep voice again.

"Impossible, I only have this condition, by the way, I don't necessarily need to transport supplies from Anshan City to Yunmeng City, I can also buy supplies from Komsomolsk in the north, I think those Russians don't mind this kind of benefit from falling from the sky, and besides, from Komsomolsk to Yunmeng City, the distance is not too close!"

Zhou Yue smiled slightly, it was completely the old god, he was very coveted for Duan Hong and Wang Zeng's abundant human resources, and even asked Li Rui to investigate carefully for this, in other words, the modern people who can live to this day basically have no old, weak, sick and disabled, the lowest level, there are also 30 levels, but the reason why these people give Duan Hong and Wang Zeng a headache is entirely because their population is too large, so it is difficult to control everything, plus, they do not have a very good placement method, their own cake is so big, Therefore, there must be contradictions and disputes.

But Zhou Yue's power does not exist at this point, because from the beginning, there are basically very few modern people under him, so far, there are only about 50,000 people, and they have all entered the military system, and have undergone countless wars and screening, so there will be no problems in all aspects.

In addition, Zhou Yue also has the largest number of ancient refugees, which is close to 200,000 people, and it is still increasing at the scale of 1,000 people per day, and the addition of these ancient refugees has also made Zhou Yue's power more and more prosperous, thus forming a virtuous circle.

On the other hand, Duan Hong and Wang Zeng, many of the modern people under their command are hostile to the ancient refugees, and there are often evil cases of robbery and even murder and rape! Even if the two of them use iron-blooded suppression, it will be difficult to cure the root cause.

So Zhou Yue is not worried at all, Duan Hong and Wang Zeng will refuse! Because they'll be more anxious.

Sure enough, when they saw that Zhou Yue did not let go, Duan Hong and Wang Zeng glanced at each other again, and said: "If you Zhou Yue continues to insist, then okay, we can agree to your conditions in principle, but we also have additional conditions, that is, we must pay first and then deliver the goods, in addition, for the construction of certain materials, you must send craftsmen to guide, and, if you can, in addition to the 100,000 laborers, our two families hope that when we build Yunmeng City and White Tiger City, we can export no less than 200,000 coolies, Each coolie's daily reward is 10 copper, and finally, we need the blueprints for the Tempest set and the Tempest set. ”

This section of Hong and Wang Zeng is also not easy to deal with, but Zhou Yue only smiled at this, it is nothing to pay in advance, it is nothing to send craftsmen, and it is nothing to hire 200,000 coolies After all, he simply does not have enough manpower to support the construction of two fortified cities at the same time, now it is okay, if Duan Hong and Wang Zeng are willing to provide the most basic supply of manpower and materials, what reason does he have to refuse! As for the Tempest suit and the Hurricane suit, it is not a problem, because with the continuous upgrading of the armor workshop in Anshan Heicheng, the Hurricane-2 series and the Hurricane-2 series suit have been designed, and the attributes will be better, and even, Wang Dazhong has already started to design the third-generation standard suit in his spare time, is the master blacksmith joking.

"No problem, I agree in principle, of course, the specific details, the price of specific materials, can be left to the professionals to negotiate, but I hope this matter is as soon as possible, I am very worried that the Mongols will relaunch the offensive in less than two months, maybe at that time, we will have another chance to cooperate." Zhou Yue said meaningfully, and Duan Hong and Wang Zeng also understood it, because these two months would be the last golden time for the development of their three forces, and if they couldn't grow in these two months, then they would have to face the result of being annexed by other parties.

It is not even an exaggeration to say that if there were no Mongols watching from the sidelines, Zhou Yue would want to do it now!

However, on the surface, the three of them were still smiling, just like old friends who had not seen each other for many years, very cordial.

As for the consensus they reached, there is no need to sign any contracts, memoranda or anything. Because this is not binding on each other at all, only sufficient interests and sufficient external crises can maintain cooperation.

Next, Duan Hong and Wang Zeng naturally didn't want to be polite with Zhou Yue, so they each said goodbye and left, but when they were separated, Wang Zeng suddenly said unexpectedly, "Zhou Yue, do you know Zhang Quan?" ”

"Zhang Quan? I've never heard of it, what, what's the problem? Zhou Yue was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Wang Zeng suddenly meant by this sentence.

"Hehe, it's nothing, I just wanted to remind you that this guy is probably a pawn planted by Freemasonry, you have to be careful!" Wang Zeng smiled strangely and turned away.

Seeing Duan Hong, Wang Zeng and the others leaving, Zhou Yue couldn't help but be confused, he never knew what Zhang Quan was, but he was thinking so, but he saw a small leader belonging to the scout camp in the distance looking over urgently, as if he had something to say, Zhou Yue remembered that he was going to report something before, but he was interrupted by the appearance of Duan Hong, Wang Zeng and others.

And this little leader Zhou Yue is very impressive, named Leng Feng, Zhang Liang is the scout battalion according to the Chinese military system, with the regiment as a unit, under three battalions, fourteen companies, this kid is one of the most elite scout company captains, and is a military soldier who joined Zhou Yue's side very early, because the scout battalion has always been based on agility, so his profession is archers plus archers and knife cavalry, currently level 58, this strength is already quite good, according to Zhang Liang's regional reconnaissance division, His company is specifically responsible for the scout reconnaissance north of Shenyang Heicheng, because it is far away from the base camp, lacking, so it is extremely dangerous, there is no ability, and it can't be mixed at all.

So Zhou Yue beckoned him over and said with a smile: "Looking at your appearance, it seems that there are some important situations, you might as well talk about it." ”

"Well, yes, Brother Zhou, the last words Wang Zeng said were not ill-intentioned at all, because Zhang Quan had already defected to our side, and in addition, Brother Zhou, if you don't remember who Zhang Quan is, then do you remember the assassin under Jiang Guoguo who is about to break through the legendary realm? He is Zhang Quan, before the disaster happened, he was the number one master in the ** guard regiment! Bodyguards, that's what they're talking about! ”

"What? That quasi-legendary assassin? ”

Zhou Yue was also taken aback at this time, if he said who Zhang Quan was, he had no impression, but in the previous battle with the Mongols, if there were a few people in the four major military regions who impressed him, then the assassin who was about to break through the legend was definitely the first, because that guy's appearance was too amazing, although Zhou Yue had only seen him shoot for a moment, that strange and wonderful body, he could actually step on the falling desert wolf eagle, indirectly jumped to a height of thousands of meters, and in a short time, he killed more than a dozen desert wolf eagles, This is definitely a technical killing, and given time, if priority is given to equipment, it is completely comparable to the legendary assassin of Mo Tianji.

Moreover, the most important thing is that although Mo Tianji is powerful, it requires chivalrous values to hire, and if this Zhang Quan really defects to Zhou Yue, it will be much simpler.

However, why did he defect to his side!

At this time, without waiting for Zhou Yue to ask, the cold wind had already quickly explained, "Brother Zhou, you must also know that our scout company needs to reconnoiter the area north of Shenyang Heicheng, all the way to the south bank of the Songhua River, in this area, don't look at the territory of Wang Zeng and Jiang Guoguo, in fact, their men and horses can only control the area of the main black city, and the rest of the place is uninhabited for thousands of miles, either there are groups of fierce beasts, or bandits and horse thieves have settled, and there is nothing for the team of people and horses to cross the border, but if the scouts of the squad pass by, it is full of dangers, Even if each of our scout teams is a scale of two hundred people, it is unavoidable, once we encountered an ancient flood beast on the south bank of the Songhua River, almost wiped out, but also thanks to Zhang Quan's team appeared in time and saved us, I was very surprised at the time, we definitely didn't expect Zhang Quan in different camps to make a move, but his words still touched us greatly, that is, the head and brain are fighting for power and profit, for selfishness, what does it have to do with the soldiers at the bottom? And since then, uh, we have had a good connection with Zhang Quan, or with the people of the Jilin Military Region, of course, Brother Zhou, don't get me wrong, we mean ordinary low-level soldiers, in fact, we didn't know Zhang Quan's true identity at that time. ”

"And this time, the two major military regions of Duan Hong and Wang Zeng raided Changchun and Jilin, and Li Yuanhao's mysterious troops helped them, so they almost destroyed Yu Wenqing and Jiang Guoguo like a devastation, in this case, Zhang Quan had no intention of fighting to the death, and he didn't want to defect to Wang Zeng, so he escaped with five hundred and sixty-one soldiers, and happened to meet us, so under our cover, he escaped the pursuit of the Jingbei Military Region, and later, Zhang Quan, who Cai Yan's military division went to see in person, and then, he joined us."
