Chapter 928: A New Official Takes Office
Zhao Wenrui found that neither of his goals was so easy to accomplish.
Needless to say, the pioneer task is equivalent to signing a military order, and if you don't win, you will die.
It's not difficult to understand when you think about it, this kind of mission, failure often means that the pioneer point is completely slaughtered by zombies, and even the chance to turn the tables is extinguished, what kind of scene is that, as the supreme commander, how can he be irresponsible for such a result?
Silence with one's own ship like a captain can be regarded as ethics and the last bit of decency, right? After all, the ship has a floating territory, and the captain's words are holy decrees on the ship, and such a great power will naturally have to bear the corresponding consequences.
Zhao Wenrui's character is a former Marine Corps lieutenant officer who was dismissed for making mistakes and later became a foreign mercenary. Therefore, he was able to accept the concept that the captain would die with the ship.
Coupled with the fact that there is a system cheat, there is no panic in this regard.
He believes that what he needs to do in this regard is to make up for the lessons as soon as possible, quickly absorb the relevant information of the zombies, the Obonning Kingdom, and even this world, and transform it into information and knowledge that can be related once it is involved.
The other question is a bit of a confusion.
Although Zhao Valve is a family, there is no serious bloody palace fight drama inside.
One of the main reasons is that the old man, that is, Kraven Zhao's grandfather, is clean and self-conscious due to objective factors, and he is an only son, and the Zhao family has a strict family style, and he is only two brothers in Kraven's generation.
The eldest has been cultivated according to the successor since he was a child, and his name has long been determined, and Craven, as the second, has not been treated badly, after all, the resources are relatively abundant, and there is no need to favor one over the other.
In addition, Claven has longed to be a general to fight zombies since he was a child, so the family has one article and one martial arts, each with its own advantages, if it weren't for liking a girl at the same time, there was a little love triangle drama, which is simply a model of family-style brotherhood.
But Zhao Wenrui firmly believes in the strangeness of Craven's death, and he believes that there is no flaw, which is the biggest flaw in itself. This positive accident often seems full of loopholes, even inexplicable, and unbelievable, because natural events are not as deliberately impermeable as man-made, and everything seems reasonable.
Thinking about it, he can only relax the scope, the enemy may come from the outside, and some people are unwilling to see Kleven Zhao lead the army to open up.
But in this way, there are many more suspects all of a sudden, not to mention him, even if it is an old man of his family, he doesn't have the energy to find out in a short time.
In the end, Zhao Wenrui forcibly pressed this matter to the bottom of his heart.
He is already mentally prepared to suffer on his own, and it is a big deal to save his meals in the future, and he will personally arrange it. Compared to the pioneering task, this little bit of hard work is nothing.
And only by making achievements in the pioneering task can they have enough status and authority, and they have already recruited their cronies in the process of the task to investigate this matter. Even if you check it now, it depends on the strength of others, and it may not be relied on.
Meeting the king on August 5 was actually the last hurdle of taking office, and it could be regarded as a good trip.
On the 6th, Zhao Wenrui embarked on a journey.
Due to the 13 failed expeditions in the past 20 years, the people of the kingdom have long lost their enthusiasm for seeing them off, but they cursed a lot, which probably means that the upper echelons are incompetent, and pioneering is like sending them to death.
Of course, there are conspiracy theories that the kingdom is doing this in order to reduce the population.
All in all, the only people who really came to see them off at the scene were the relatives and friends of the officers and soldiers and the engineering troops, and it was as if they were parting from life and death, and the atmosphere was quite weak.
"General, are you giving an impromptu speech to boost morale......
Zhao Wenrui glanced at Jonathan, the chief of staff with two sideburns, this is the dog-headed military advisor arranged by the family to escort him. Participated in three pioneering campaigns, retreated, and was promoted to the rank of official, and was nicknamed 'transfer expert'.
He didn't know what the old man thought, he actually arranged such a character with the obvious attribute of 'loach' as a staff member, and he was not interested in delving into it, anyway, he would not trust this kind of person.
"Being trampled into the mud is also a good thing, easy to be content. I'd rather they think it's a mission to survive than that the kingdom has a new way to deal with zombies, a new weapon. ”
"There is no hope, it is easy to collapse. ”
Zhao Wenrui laughed: "Then what? kill me, flee back, and turn around and say that I was bitten to death by zombies? Even if the king is willing to let them go, the Zhao family will not." From the moment they took the Zhao family's money, they knew very well that if I was dead, but they were still alive, their families would be in trouble. ”
"......" Jonathan wanted to beat up the stinky Zhao Wenrui, but he couldn't, because Zhao Wenrui was telling the truth.
The core personnel of the pioneer team this time can be said to be a group of people who sold their lives to the Zhao family.
The process isn't complicated either.
First of all, being a soldier eats food, and many people in the kingdom choose to be a soldier because of this concept.
But being a soldier is not only about food, there is also a saying that obeying orders is the duty of a soldier.
Therefore, whoever the top brass of the army wants to join the pioneer troops can only be ordered.
Secondly, in this context, Zhao Valve paid money to let the expedition get double the settling-in fee, what does this mean, do you need to say more?
Including him Jonathan is the same, promising heavy profits, if the coach dies this time, he will come back safe and sound, and what awaits him will never be promoted and rich.
So Jonathan was particularly attentive this time, and Kraven Zhao was really arrogant and arrogant as he expected. What Jonathan didn't expect was that Kraven also had a set of fallacies that could fool some people.
Zhao Wenrui doesn't think that his set is a fallacy.
In fact, he didn't pay much attention to these improvised claims. Performance is made, not blown. No matter how well it is explained, what is the use of eggs?
So his attention is basically on the golden finger.
His cheat is a system, with gamification features, but it is more appropriate, for example, it is also a zombie enemy, and it is also steampunk.
There are many limitations to the application of this system, but these limitations are not worth mentioning in terms of advantages. Among them, the most satisfying thing for Zhao Wenrui is the effect of the system's legal orders.
This effect is similar to radio radiation, in which all human beings in the radiation area will be affected by the brain and become a 'standard population'.
As for what kind of criterion it is, in fact, there is only one: support the leadership group with him as the core and obey the main orders issued by this leadership group.
Correspondingly, the people are the people, the soldiers are the soldiers, there will be no militia, and there is no need to think about what to take up arms to defend the homeland together.
After weighing the gains and losses, Zhao Wenrui still felt that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages. He believes that the most important thing for a group to do is to go its own way, and if it is scattered, not only will it not be able to gain cohesion, but it will pull each other back and become a constraint to each other.
And he, the new official took office, his prestige was insufficient, and the most worrying thing was that he could not move the command, or the people below would obey him. Using the golden finger of the system to smooth out such a big problem, I can wake up with a smile when I dream.
To put it mildly, if this is still a failure of the pioneer mission, no one should complain, find a house beam and hang it with a rope.
The train driven by the steam locomotive sped along the tracks, and there was no whistle, but there was still a lot of movement.
However, along the way, few zombies have been attracted to it.
One is because the number of zombies in this area is limited, and the other is that dozens of encounters have come, and the zombies have learned to be obedient, knowing that it is not the opponent of this large iron canned meat with a triangular shovel head installed in front, knife wheels and auxiliary wheels on both sides of the wheels, and can also spit deadly bullets from inside.
Zhao Wenrui, on the other hand, has a sense of déjà vu in the armored train, which has been specially designed at the front of the car for fear that too many zombies will become a large number of natural brakes like rubber balls......
After arriving at the destination, Zhao Wenrui got off the car, and he understood why this place is called Zangjin Valley, there are a large number of maple trees here, this season, the maple leaves have been red, the breeze is sending, and the eyes are swaying and flying red and yellow.
Theoretically, even in the north, the maple leaves do not turn red until September or October.
However, in today's world, the global climate is generally cold, so most of the maple leaves have changed color in autumn.
The railway came from the east, drawing a line with the letter 'z' in the Tibetan Gold Valley and heading west.
This is one of the few remaining achievements of the 13 expeditions.
Speaking of which, Zhao Wenrui must admit that he caught up with the good time, and when he took office, he also encountered the railroad track tactics of the leader of the smart zombie, but he basically didn't encounter it again in his previous term.
The Wisdom Zombie seems to be dead.
But correspondingly, the hyper-mourning virus has also become more deadly.
As far as Zhao Wenrui knows, there are two main ways to spread the virus, one is scratching and biting, and the other is droplets.
It can be said that once ordinary people are ridden by zombies, they are basically finished.
And the newly infected zombies must be powerful and fast fast zombies, so even if a zombie attacks the stronghold, the stronghold is very easy to fall.
At least half of his predecessors were touched by one or two zombies because they didn't do a good enough job of 'preventing micro problems', and soon formed a corpse tide and died.
In this regard, he also has a unique advantage, his system comes with a mini-map function, as long as there are zombies, there are monitoring units nearby, or facilities, then the zombies will be 'seen', presented in the form of red dots on the minimap, which means that unless he is negligent, it will not be easily touched by zombies.
"General!" At the small station, the leader of the advance troops, Major James, saluted Zhao Wenrui who got off the train.
"Rest, Major, how is the preliminary work done?"
"The command center has been successfully completed. ”
Zhao Wenrui smiled, and said in his heart that this answer was also ingenious.
The preliminary work is indeed centered on the command center, but it is not only the command center, but also includes the stations that can be used, etc. Only the command center was completed, which indicates that the preliminary work was not completed as planned.
Zhao Wenrui didn't bother with this major, his golden finger shining army system is similar to the kind of game that starts with a base car, as long as there is a barrier for him to land the command center at the core of the system, it is enough.
When he saw the real thing, Zhao Wenrui also understood why he only completed the construction of the command center.
James apparently built this command center to the specifications of a modern bastion. The amount of work is not small, even beyond expectations, and you can say that this major is very conservative, and it cannot be said that he does not work.
Of course, Zhao Wenrui also took into account another important factor, that is, the engineers have no sense of security and are unwilling to really carry out the work in a pioneering way, and James can only make certain trade-offs, after all, in reality, not the will of the peak can be implemented 100%, it is too impersonal, the resistance is large, and the effect is low, this account will not be calculated, then this work cannot be done well.
On the first day of arrival, Zhao Wenrui did not rush to give orders.
This made the engineering troops who arrived in advance, and even the officers and soldiers who arrived with Zhao Wenrui, feel a little more at ease.
It has long been rumored that this young general is arrogant and frivolous, and they are very worried that Zhao Wenrui will give some orders indiscriminately as soon as he comes up, should they listen to it or resist it when the time comes?
"What do you know? It's not that Kraven is calm and sophisticated, it's Jonathan, the transfer expert next to him, who really has the final say, and Kraven is here to gild it, and after two or three consecutive results, he withdrew. ”
"What should we do then? Can we go back to China with us to rest?"
"It's hard to say. ”
"So licking Jonathan is what we're going to do?"
"You are wrong, Kraven wants to get things done, and he wants to punish us like this, it's not a word, so this young master is unhappy, I'm afraid he won't survive for three days. ”
"I'm confused, who should I listen to?"
"It takes your own wisdom to judge......"
"I'll go, is this Nima okay?
"Scatter, the gendarmerie is coming, be careful to eat the sticks. ”
Engineers are also soldiers, and even in peacetime, it is forbidden to gossip and gossip from one mouth to another.
As the night passed, the officers and soldiers, who were anxious waiting for the verdict, received the first order of Kleven Zhao on the second day.
All personnel, according to the number of the unit to which they belong, are organized as a unit and meet with the Supreme Commander.
"What is this for? encouragement, intimidation, or both?"
Many people scoff at this set, and political work is very important, but this is also too crude. It's all at this time, how effective can it be? It's a waste of each other's time.
The focus is indeed on political work, but Zhao Wenrui issued this order, not to say something bitterly, but to officially stamp these people with the brand of a shining system.
In 12 hours, the core command center of the shining system has landed.
As the saying goes, since you are off, you have to trust the referee.
Although Zhao Wenrui is far from being familiar with the shining system, he also has a certain skeptical attitude. But he still resolutely decided to go into this system to open up the situation.
He is not young, his life experience has made him full of awe of reality, and he knows that managing people is the most difficult thing to do well in many of his jobs, and there is no one.
Especially at this stage, even if he has personal charm, he has not been able to infect anyone, his prestige has not been established, and his authority is completely obtained by the position of pioneer commander, and it is almost impossible to quickly open up the situation, but time waits for no one, the system tells him that after 16 days, there will be a wave of corpses from the north, no matter from which point of view, he feels that he would rather believe that it is better.
"I have two things to be proud of, first of all, I have a good memory, and I can remember each of you by name, look, voice, and even small movements in just one time. Secondly, I am very confident in knowing people, and I will not bury people who are incapable. In the future, everyone will have to eat in the same pot, I don't want to say any nonsense about equality in personality, but I still want to say that in order to live better, we need to be considerate of each other and take care of each other......"
Zhao Wenrui met with the officers and soldiers of each squad, and almost all of them said the same thing. It's not very good, but it's not annoying, and it's okay overall, at least the officers and soldiers have a better impression of him than they had before. People who can sincerely say that they eat in a pot, understand each other, and take care of each other are either good at acting, or they really have some down-to-earth cognition, and people would rather believe the latter.
In this sad era, we must always have hope, otherwise life will be too hard and too difficult.
In this way, Zhao Wenrui started his pioneering mission, and the Zangjin Valley was only the first stop, to some extent, it was the steamed buns that others had chewed and he chewed again. Although it sounds simple, for a new official like him, who has no prestige, it is not so easy to do a good job, even if he has a golden finger......
