Chapter XXIII

Just when Gu Xia was worried about how to increase the labor resources in his hands next, the door of the base suddenly opened.

Hearing the sound, I saw that the origin of the morning outing was walking into the base with some weapons and equipment that did not belong to them, and some bags full of things.

"Origin." So Xia raised his hand and said hello.

"We're back." Origin put down the package in his hand and walked to Gu Xia's side.

"How's it going to be today?"

"Two expropriation teams were resolved, a total of ten people, a batch of firearms and ammunition were obtained, and some materials were expropriated."

"Weapons, ammunition and supplies should be stored first, remember to store those materials separately, and then divide them into categories."

"I don't understand why the supplies should be stored separately."

The origin is not understood, so Xia made a decision.

Therefore, Xia is a helpless smile, too, the origin is a robot of this era after all, although it has a high level of intelligence, but in general there is still not much understanding of human nature.

"First of all, we don't have a high demand for those supplies, so there's no need to use them, and secondly, it's also a way to buy people's hearts."

"When the time comes, we can return these supplies, so that the expropriated forces will thank us, and although it is not useful, at least it will make them not too resistant to some of the policies we have ordered."

Buying people's hearts and minds is also part of the united front, and most of the time, real money is more convincing than empty policy propaganda.

Especially the feeling of returning what he lost to his own hands, so Xia felt that even these people in the wasteland would have a lot of good feelings for his side.

Although they may be more severely exploited in the future because of other things that Gu Xia is doing, what does this have to do with Gu Xia?

Anyway, it wasn't done by the people on the old Xia side, and it was impossible to do such a thing as transferring contradictions.

It may peel off the original command layer of the Dominion.

But as long as they can take control of the area and ensure its stability, then their sacrifice can be regarded as "well-deserved".

"I don't know much, but I'll follow your instructions."

Origin picked up a charging cable and plugged it into his charging port, and by the way, he instructed the other robots to start sorting the materials and guns they brought, and stored them in different locations on the base.

In this regard, so Xia just smiled casually, and did not continue to explain this knowledge for the origin.

……

Compared to the state of full harvest on the old summer side, the Dominion side is much more dull.

First of all, the two collection teams that are missing.

You know, even if the Dominion is the largest force in this region, the population is only about 500, and there are ten people missing at once, and they are still ten people with combat effectiveness, which is indeed a bit painful.

And the materials have not yet been collected, and this wave is completely empty of people and money.

But the most important thing is that after so many years, there are people in this area who dare to challenge their authority, which is really not good news.

Frowning, the lord put down the piece of paper in his hand with the information from the people below, and rang a bell on the table with some displeasure.

Soon, a soldier on duty walked in at the door of his office.

"You go and get Chen Liang, who is in charge of the expropriation work, and Zhao Qi from the combat unit."

"Yes."

After a short time, two big men came to the lord's office.

"Where did the two teams that disappeared today go to collect them?"

"They are all going to the troops west of the territory, one is going to the 23rd collection point, and the other is going to the 29th point."

Chen Liang had already expected the lord to ask this question before he was called, so he had already prepared the draft.

The number of this collection point is actually the number of the dominions' places of residence for those forces and scattered people living in their own territory, which is a way to facilitate memory and reporting.

Hearing this, the lord nodded and asked, "Zhao Qi, how many more fighters can we organize now?" ”

"Report to the lord, in addition to the personnel handed over to the levy team, we can organize a team of up to one hundred and thirty people, and we can completely uproot the forces of the twenty-third and twenty-ninth points."

"Very good, you will take the fifty people tomorrow, go to the two collection points, investigate, if the people were not killed by them, then let them hand over the supplies, if the people were killed by them, then directly slaughter them for me."

A hint of fierceness flashed in the lord's eyes, how many years has it been that no one has dared to challenge his authority, those two points of people are really courageous, if they are really sure, they will definitely have to contain their resistance in the cradle.

Otherwise, it is estimated that more forces will soon begin to follow suit, and now is an important juncture for the Dominion to overcome the crisis, and they cannot be disturbed.

Thinking of this, the lord thought of one more thing.

"Zhao Qi, someone said that a robot was found in the territory before, you should have sent someone to reconnoitre, how is the situation?"

"It's been found that those robots are now staying at the No. 5 collection point in the southern district, and it seems that a base has been established, and it is not clear where they belong or what they are going to do."

"But there is one thing, the brother who used to scout said that he only saw four robots in the camp, and he is not sure if some of them are hidden for the time being."

Zhao Qi recalled for a moment and said, "Lord, do you say that there is a possibility that they plan to stay here for a long time. ”

"Alas...... What an eventful time. ”

"You all go down and prepare first, and then report to me if there is any progress."

The lord rubbed his temples and kicked the two out of the office.

There have been a lot of things lately, and what happened in this month may be worth last year's year compared to before.

Whether it's the rapid aging of planting equipment, the appearance of robots in the territory, or the disappearance of one's own people, it is a thing that can only be encountered at a long interval before.

I didn't expect it to erupt in such a month.

It's a little anxious to make yourself, and it would be nice if the internal situation on your side can be more stable, but the people below are always thinking about doing things, and some of them want to abdicate.

It really is!

Without themselves, do they think that they can solve these things by themselves?

It's simply impossible.

Sometimes I think that it is not a bad thing to die a few people, and if you die more, you can save yourself food.

It's just a pity that it is those who support themselves, not those who oppose it, who die.
