Chapter 396: A Difficult Situation (Part II)
conference room
The host Zhang Zheng didn't speak, and the others didn't speak, only a faint smoke lingering in the room!
The facts in front of them were truly shocking, and no one would have thought that the humans who lived in this land before them would be so crazy, so ...... Evil!
Yes, Zhang Zheng's opinion is similar to that of the people in the land of the goddess of nature, no wonder he and others have just become the public enemies of the whole people as soon as they come ashore, and Zhang Zheng is also speechless at the same time, if it is really like what the goblin girl said, the legend about human beings here has been circulated for tens of thousands of years ago, and for such a long time, people living in this land have been taught that human beings are the embodiment of evil and are man-eating demons. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
One can imagine how deeply ingrained the image of the native people here is of humanity, and now he wants to establish a trade route here, which seems to be an impossible task!
Coastal City is still just a small city near the coast, and it has become the public enemy of the whole city, if it goes deep inland in the future, it will be doomed!
How many people and races are there in this continent? The number will definitely not be less than the population of the Brilliant Continent, and he, the human race he represents is only a few thousand people, who can tell him what to do next?
Zhang Zheng sat there contemplating with a cigarette in his mouth, and the people below were all looking at him, while the goblin girl was carefully observing everyone, and the humans in front of him seemed to be distressed.
After being silent for a few minutes, Zhang Zheng felt that he had to say something, so he opened his mouth to break the silent atmosphere of the conference room, and it was time to discuss countermeasures for the current dilemma!
Before this, Zhang Zheng had another thing to do, he kidnapped someone just now, and now he got the answer he wanted, he had to send people out
Thinking about it, Zhang Zheng glanced down at the goblin who was sitting at the conference table and was at a loss, and the goblin girl's heart was furious, and she couldn't help but want to retreat again, but when she looked behind her, the humans behind her looked even more terrifying than the one in front of her.
In front of the goblins, Xiong Ren, Tianlong and others already looked like blue-faced fangs and hideous demons, seeing the goblins in a dilemma at the conference table, Zhang Zheng felt quite cute, and couldn't help but smile
"Xiong Ren, please send this little girl from the goblin clan off the boat!"
After speaking, Zhang Zheng didn't forget to instruct
"Light hands and feet, don't pinch others to death at once!"
"Okay, old bear will send her off the boat!"
Xiong Ren got up with a big stab and said, first opening his blood basin and smiling at the goblin
"Let's go, little one!"
Then before the goblin had any reaction, the big hand swept across the conference table, and the goblin girl was firmly pinched in his hand, like a little chick, and I don't know how hard he used, anyway, Zhang Zheng saw that the goblin girl was pinched by him and her face turned blue, her lips were white, her eyes protruded outward, she rolled her eyes frequently, and she looked like she was about to be pinched to death
"Okay, okay, big bear, you let her go, she doesn't need you to send it!
Xue Ji also saw that something was wrong, and snatched the person from Xiong Ren's hands as soon as possible, and gently held him in his arms, Xiong Ren was still muttering dissatisfiedly
"Don't you want me to deliver it, how can you let a girl do such a rough job of running errands?"
Zhang Zheng scolded angrily
"Are you embarrassed to say that people are about to be pinched to death by you, let you send them, does she still have the order to get off the boat?"
Xiong Ren tilted his head to look at the goblin in Yukihime's arms, who had not recovered from her suffocation, and was clutching her chest and gasping for breath desperately.
"Hehe, I'm really sorry, I used a little bit more force just now!"
Xiong Ren scratched his hair with a look of Hao Ran, and then made excuses for himself
"But it can't all be up to me, who made her look so small......"
Zhang Zheng didn't bother to pay attention to him, and directly ordered Xue Ji
"Yukihime, you send people off the ship, and then hurry back for a meeting!"
"Yes!"
Xue Ji nodded, hugged the goblin and got off the boat, and Zhang Zheng also started to get down to business
"Everyone, everyone has heard about the situation, I believe everyone understands the current situation, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the enemy of the whole people, and it is not an exaggeration to move hard!"
After speaking, Zhang Zheng looked at everyone in the conference room
"So, I'd like to ask you what you think, should you stay here and take the risk or just go home?"
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, the guards and the commander of the fleet don't have any opinions, what Zhang Zheng means is what they mean, and they won't make any remarks until Zhang Zheng gives a clear order!
Soldiers, just carry out orders, their brains are only used to think about how to complete the mission
There are only a few businessmen who are really considering, Zhang Zheng is very open-minded in this regard, and he will not interfere in any way if it is only a legal act, so Zhang Zheng will leave the decision to the businessman himself.
After several people looked at each other a few times, Dongfang Xiong, who was the strongest, asked
"Nephew, this is the last piece of land where people live, right?"
Zhang Zheng nodded
"That's right, this is the last piece of land that we know so far where people live and have a developed civilization, I know what you want to say, now I can tell you that if you want to take your business to the next level, if you want to get rid of the predicament of your factory, the only way to establish business relations with this place is now!"
These words are not so much for the merchants as for himself, if he can't establish business contacts with this place, not only the merchants will be in trouble, but the problems faced by his Tianxin City will be even more severe!
No matter what these merchants decided in the end, he already had the answer in his heart, in order for Tianxin City to continue to flourish, he had to find a way to gain a foothold here and break the current predicament.
It's hard to accomplish this, so he needs helpers, what is the best means of communication, naturally trade, to put it bluntly, that is, money, and merchants become the key to it!
Some people say that force is okay, but this is completely wrong, force is very effective, and the effect is very fast, but no matter how powerful the force is, it can only blast a few big holes in the ice, and then make the relationship worse, which is also what makes Zhang Zheng really distressed.
Because his most powerful weapons have lost their effect, machine guns, cannons, and atomic bombs, these can only bring destruction, but cannot give people a new life, today in the city, even if the whole city is besieged, Zhang Zheng does not dare to let people die, things have proved that his decision is correct, if he accidentally kills people today, then the statement that human beings are demons can be true.
There will be no one to distinguish between right and wrong, and no one will delve into the question of who made the first move, which side was forced to fight back, legitimate defense, and so on!
When waiting for the answer, Zhang Zheng was thinking about all kinds of messy problems in his mind, thinking about how to solve the current problem, but the misunderstanding of human beings here is obviously deep-rooted.
It's all to blame for the bastards in front of him, Zhang Zheng scolded secretly in his heart, everyone said, the predecessors planted trees, and the descendants took advantage of the shade, but look at what these predecessors did, there was no good thing, and they did some hateful lack of morality, could it be that the people who came here before had the blood of the island country!
Zhang Zheng couldn't help but think about it, and at this time, after a simple discussion, the businessmen quickly had a result, Dongfang Xiong Dao
"Virtuous nephew, we have discussed, everyone has no way to retreat, since we have arrived here now, we must not go back empty-handed, say that we must open this trade route, even if it is to lose money and make money, we must continue to do it!"
Hu Shun also said
"Brother Dongfang is right!"
"I think the same thing as the two older brothers. ”
"Agreed!"
"Can't go back!"
“……”
The businessmen all expressed their attitudes, and they agreed that they should continue, and at this time, Zhang Zheng nodded with satisfaction
"Since you have all decided, then let it go, if there are any difficulties, just mention it to me, although I can't interfere in business matters, but I will provide you with the greatest help in other aspects!"
……
This meeting lasted for a long time, and Zhang Zheng didn't know that during the time he was in the meeting, the entire Goddess of Nature Continent had already caused an uproar because of their arrival!
Soon after they retreated, it was discovered that the docks had been taken over by humans, and many people had been killed, but it was later discovered that those people had only fallen into a coma and had not died, which reassured everyone.
However, the matter is not over, and no one has just released their suspicions because of this matter! No matter what, it is an indisputable fact that human beings have reappeared, and no one has ever thought about why human beings are just stunning people instead of killing them, they only have one idea, that is, to quickly spread the news back to their own clan and to all the races on the continent.
The merman reacts the fastest
The shallow sea area, the bottom of the sea, this is the gathering place of the shark people, although they can go ashore, but most of the time they live in the sea, and the two young people who witnessed the human beings descending on the Goddess of Nature continent rushed back to their respective clans to convey the news as soon as possible
"Oh no, Great Elder, the legendary human seems to have appeared!"
"What, humans appeared, where are they?
"Can't be wrong, it's the same as the touch in the book, and now they're going to Marina City!"
"Oops, I'm afraid Marina City is going to be ruined!"
The merman elder's face changed drastically, and he made a response as soon as possible
"Inform the clansmen, let the clansmen who have been trained outside immediately return to the clan, no one in the clan is allowed to go out, in addition, hurry up and pass the news of the human world to the other merman tribes, and finally, notify all the elders in the clan to come to discuss the matter! I will inform the patriarch!"
Then there are the dwarves
"It's not good, the humans who have disappeared have reappeared, let the women and children of the clan hide, gather all the dwarven warriors, and support Marina City!"
Goblins
"It's a big deal, humans have appeared, everyone hurry up and hide, don't come out!"
"I just received a notice that the warriors of the dwarf clan have set off, although we goblins are not as big as them, but there are also many warriors, all those who have awakened the power of nature will follow me, and we will also go to Marina City!"
The Forest of Elves, the seat of the Elves,
"I really didn't expect that after tens of thousands of years, human beings would appear again, hmph, this time, my elf clan will not let history repeat itself!" "The Elven Tree, the oldest and most sacred tree in the entire natural continent, it is a gift from the goddess of nature, and it is also a bridge between the elves and the goddess of nature, at this moment, the elf queen is standing at the top of the elf tree
"Gather all the elven warriors in the clan and set off for Marina City!"
……
On this day, the mermaids hid deep underwater, dwarves and elves poured out, goblins basically hid in caves, and some of them brought weapons and prepared to join the battlefield against demons.
This is on the bright side, the wind is surging, and in the dark, there is an undercurrent
Bloodmist Forest
The sworn enemy of the natural elven clan and the gathering place of the fallen elven clan, the blood-red fallen elven empress has an evil smile on the corner of her mouth
"The humans are here, Moshi's bitch and the nature elves are mortal enemies with humans, this time there is a good show, and the dwarves and goblins can't be idle...... Hahahaha...... Good...... This land has been quiet for too long, it's time for it to be lively!"
"Pass the order, let Batu lead someone to help the humans, and if you have the chance, kill that slut in Moshi!"
"Also, send someone to the Castle of Darkness, that undead shouldn't miss this event......"
……
What is Zhang Zheng doing, after the meeting, Zhang Zheng locked himself in the study, saying that it was a study, but it was actually an ordinary room on the cruise ship, except for Zhang's desk, there was nothing, it was very simple!
Going out, the conditions are naturally not as good as at home, and it would be good to find a quiet place, where can you pick and choose, Zhang Zheng locked himself in the study and considered how to go next, especially how to take the first step, after thinking for a long time, there was no good idea, Zhang Zheng couldn't help but be a little upset, there was an urge to smack things, and then there was a knock on the door "knock".
"Who!"
"Report to the young master, the communication room has just received the news from the satellite, and there is a tense situation!"
After the guard finished speaking, Zhang Zheng had to temporarily put down the work at hand and quickly went to the communication room
"Report to the young master, I just received a photo from the satellite, and the people on this continent have moved!"
As he spoke, the man lined up the photos one by one in front of Zhang Zheng
"This was an hour ago, this was half an hour ago, this was ten minutes ago!"
Zhang Zheng picked up a few photos and looked at them, the photos were nothing else, all people, all races
"Who are these?"
"Report to the young master, judging from the satellite monitoring, there is no doubt that they are all cultivators, because they all have weapons! There are quite a few people, at least tens of thousands, and they are still increasing rapidly!"
Zhang Zheng suddenly had a bad premonition
"Can you analyze their purpose?"
"Report, judging from the direction they are traveling, it is clear that they are coming towards Marina City, that is, ......"
Zhang Zheng took over the conversation
"In other words, it's coming at us!"
"What the young master said is right, although we can't be sure for the time being, but it's very possible! Young master, if it's really coming at us, what should we do? Do you want to retreat to the sea to take refuge!"
Zhang Zheng frowned, his fingers unconsciously tapped on the tabletop, and after pondering for a while, he shook his head decisively
"No, we won't retreat! Since we're going to stay here, we're going to have to make contact sooner or later, just right, take this opportunity to meet them for a while!"
After speaking, Zhang Zheng smiled indifferently
"Come to such a person, hehe, you really look up to us!"
"But young master, there are too many of them, if we make a move then, we will suffer a lot!" Several guards in the communication room were a little worried, a few of them could become correspondents, people were naturally very smart, although they couldn't make a decision, it was still okay to put forward their opinions!
Usually, Zhang Zheng also adopted a lot of their opinions, but this time, Zhang Zheng planned to go his own way
"Don't be afraid, there are many of them, and there are many of us, and they have a great advantage in force, if they really want to fight, they may not lose, besides, if we retreat to the sea, when they take this pier back, it will be difficult for us to come back, and it will be even more dangerous to land with landing craft!"
After speaking, Zhang Zheng began to deploy strategically
"From now on, let me monitor the movements of these people throughout the whole process, I want to know their every move! In addition, give the order to go down and let the troops set up a defensive position at the dock!"
"Increased patrol intensity and range!"
"And transfer all the heavy weapons to the shore for me! Finally, release the small drones, and I want you to monitor the situation in the city for me!"
"In short, I want all intelligence units and combat posts to be fully operational in the shortest possible time, and inform all captains and all officers that from now on, the whole army will be ready for combat at the first level!"
"Yes!"
Zhang Zheng walked out of the communication room after giving the order, but the whole army was busy, the arsenal was wide open, boxes of ammunition were moved out of it, and then distributed to everyone, artillery shells were sent to the gun room, tanks, infantry chariots, and military vehicles drove ashore one after another, forming a heavy weapon position in the place where they must go to the dock, and the warehouses on both sides of the dock were also occupied by the guards, turning into improvised pillboxes and machine gun positions!
More than a dozen small unmanned reconnaissance aircraft entered the sky over the city and circled in all directions, conducting all-round monitoring!
The main guns, auxiliary guns, and other guns on the battleship were opened one after another, and thousands of soldiers formed layers of cross-fire nets on the small docks.
Just when they were in full swing to prepare for the war, on the other side, their opponents were not idle, according to the factual information provided by the satellite, the number of the opponent was getting bigger and bigger, and by the evening, in just a few hours, the number had grown to tens of thousands, and the nearest one was less than a hundred miles away from them!
