Chapter 70 Meetings
From the moment the bronze man closed his hands and his head burst, the whole room fell silent, and from those wide-eyed eyes, you could see an unbelievable look, why not Zhong, the dignified captain of the awakened who had golden strength, died so simply?!
Ling Chen admitted that in terms of attack power alone, the other party had a strength close to first-class gold, but it was only an attack. Defense, reaction, body, etc., the other party is obviously far from enough, perhaps it is precisely because it can attack from a distance and destroy the enemy a few meters away, which makes the other aspects of the other party not grow, forming a fatal shortcoming.
"Ahh
The young man, known as the little snake, grabbed the black whip around his neck with his hands and feet, and his feet gradually left the ground, and in a moment his hands hung to his sides, and a long tongue came out of his mouth, and his body remained motionless.
Bang Bang!
A huge metal echo came from the bronze man's two colliding big hands, which shook everyone around them to their senses, some quickly pulled out their cards, some quickly hid to the side, and the rest looked at Diao Li. The opponent can kill their captain in an instant, this strength shocks everyone, they subconsciously don't want to clash with Ling Chen, once the war starts, no one knows if they will be able to get out of this room alive.
"Brother Ling!" Diao Li turned his head to Ling Chen, "What are you going to do with this matter, are you going to kill me even if you want to?" ”
His eyes were fixed on Ling Chen, and one of his right hands had taken the shape of a long knife, ready to snap the weapon out.
"Of course not!" Ling Chen showed a smile, which eased the atmosphere, "I only punish the evil, and I never ask." It's better for us to continue to drink this wine banquet, it's a bit of a pity to waste it, but we can't ruin your interest in celebrating. ”
"Haha, it's good if you don't fight, although I have a little friendship with him, it's nothing, I didn't expect him to take revenge, I can kill you today, maybe I will kill me tomorrow, Brother Ling is good to kill."
Diao Li laughed heartily and commanded people to clean up the house. Half of the Awakened were his subordinates, busy with the words, and the other half were a little embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
The banquet was open again, but the atmosphere was noticeably less enthusiastic.
At this time, Ling Chen revealed his true identity, and Diao Li, who was sitting next to him, was obviously stunned, "Brother Ling, why didn't you say it earlier, you must know this, why don't you dare to do this." ”
"I just want him to do this, so I give him this opportunity, I don't need an ally who may be stabbed in the back at any time." Gently picking up the wine glass in front of him, Ling Chen took a sip.
“…… Don't worry, my Lao Diao is not such a person. As if he heard the warning in Ling Chen's mouth, Diao Li said reassuringly.
"I know this, but you need to restrain yourself, don't kill innocents indiscriminately, every human life in the last days is a wealth."
When Ling Chen returned to his camp, it was just getting dark, and he was walking on the dilapidated streets, lined with tents set up one after another, and in the collapsed buildings, he saw the stitches gathered into patches.
And there are some buildings that can still be inhabited, even if the upper floors are diagonally disconnected and completely exposed to the air, and it seems that they may collapse at any time, they will become places for people to live in. There is no more shelter to distribute than there was in the past, and now everything has to be fought for by yourself. Many people don't even have a tent, and you can imagine how they have to survive the cold and damp environment at night.
The pebbles under his feet rolled forward with his steps, Ling Chen could only shake his head wordlessly for everything he saw along the way, the most important thing now is not to solve people's accommodation and cold, there is no time to take care of these.
And he saw people clashing more than once along the way, some for the house to live, some for the location of the tent was not good and wanted to change places, and the good order and vigorous atmosphere when he first entered the city seemed to have completely disappeared during the time he was away. Some people even began to snatch other people's tents and use stones and other objects to carry out malicious attacks.
This made Ling Chen realize that the order was collapsing little by little, and if it was not stopped, it would quickly accelerate the process, and even irreversibly collapse.
He stepped forward to stop the crowd from fighting, and educated them severely, and then he rushed to the current command center, where troops must be sent out to maintain order!
When Ling Chen returned to the command center building, he learned from the soldiers who kept coming to inquire that the news that Shangcheng would not accept them for the time being had somehow leaked out, and it quickly spread throughout the camp like long legs, and everyone was panicked, as if the sky had fallen. More than 10,000 soldiers were gathered around the building, waiting for news of a meeting inside, no wonder there was not a single soldier to be seen outside.
Ling Chen quickly calmed them down, saying that the previous news was just a rumor, and that he had already contacted Shangcheng and was negotiating related matters, and then asked the soldiers to go out to maintain order without panicking.
"What's going on, how did the news leak out?" Ling Chen, who came to the conference room, asked loudly to several people in the meeting.
After the reorganization, the high-level meeting has been changed from the original "three-person secret meeting" to a public meeting, and the official captains of all major teams are eligible to participate. Since Ling Chen personally held the position of head of the emergency battle group, Ren Donglai, as the deputy head of the regiment, also attended the meeting. Of course, they only have the power to put forward opinions and have no decision, while Ling Chen has the power of veto.
In the face of Ling Chen's questioning, everyone looked at each other, they also knew the important surname of the news, how could it be easily leaked before they discussed countermeasures.
"I leaked it, and it was intentionally spread." A man stood up from his seat and said in a flat voice.
It turned out to be Ren Donglai!
"You!" Ling Chen suppressed his anger, walked to the empty seat of the long table of the conference, and sat down, "Say, I want to hear the reason." ”
Facing the doubtful, angry, flat, or interested eyes of some people, Ren Donglai said calmly: "The latest news sent back by the commander through the communicator, we have already known during the meeting. Everyone suspects that Shangcheng is sitting on the ground and raising the price, but this is also likely to be the other party's discord. We don't want to give up the fruits of our hard work, but the people below don't care. But with this rumor, it is different, because people will be treated unfairly, and they will have a common hatred and hatred, and they will be more united.
There may be some chaos in the beginning, but as long as the commander ascends to the top and leads the people to declare war on the city, so that they can see our strength, then the other side will inevitably give in. And the millions of people you bring with you will be firmly tied to your chariot and will be even more embraced by you. At this time, I don't know how many of us are in Shangcheng, otherwise the scale of millions of people will not make them so sluggish, just use this reason to attack first, and the division is also famous, and it is not good for the other party to take a punch. ”
When he finished speaking, the conference room was quiet, and everyone looked at Ren Donglai with the eyes of a madman.
After a long time, Ling Chen sighed: "The reason why I'm angry is because you don't know about confidentiality, and more because you suspect that someone acted without asking for instructions and spread the news. Now it seems that this is indeed the case, although everything Ren Donglai did was for me, I still have to punish you, and I will not make an example. ”
He pressed his hand down and motioned for Ren Donglai to sit down, while the latter nodded his head to admit punishment and sit back in his seat.
"You don't know what I'm thinking." Ling Chen said slowly, "Maybe everyone thinks that holding millions of people in their hands is the right choice, and someone has everything, but I feel that this is just a heavy burden. The third wave of insect attacks is coming soon, are you sure you can save them? I'm afraid not, most people can't even guarantee their own lives, how can they guarantee others. Since no one can keep it, what is the difference between it and nothing? If you don't talk far, let's just say that the cold of the night and the huge amount of food to be consumed every day, can you guarantee it?
So my plan is to give up all the people to Shangcheng, and let them go to this heart. As for going to war with Uptown, I wouldn't agree that it would consume a lot of combat supplies, and the situation could easily escalate, which was not a wise choice when the insect tide was coming, and it would only consume our own human strength.
Of course, not all of them give up, the fighting force is our own, this will never be given up, and it is only the ordinary people who will be handed over to the upper city.
That's my idea, you can put forward any opinions, and if you can convince me, I can change it. ”
