Chapter 3: War and Salvation
β...... The above is the layout of our war, the war codename...... Gale!"
Human City, a month and a half after Pei Jiao and others returned from the moon, this is already a big city with a population of more than 700,000 and a healthy population of more than 300,000...... Compared to the current era, it is already one of the largest cities on the planet, or the word "two" can be removed, and it should be the largest metropolis in the world. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to the original population of the human city, there are all the residents who migrated from the southern human city, the lunar residents who fled from the moon, and the human beings in the forests and Gobi near the human city, of course, there are more alien tribes near and far around the human city, and they handed over the human beings they were breeding in their respective fields, all of which totaled more than 700,000, of course, more than half of them need long-term recuperation, and many people seem to have mental problems.
But no matter what, for more than a month, for humans, who have become accustomed to modern time differences, and count by the minute every day, coupled with the technology brought by the lunar humans, the tools they brought, and the free labor of a large number of alien slaves, the entire human city is really thriving, there are construction sites going on everywhere, and even some four- or five-story buildings are already being erected.
Having experienced the Ghost Catastrophe, the Hundred Races Catastrophe, the Human City War, and all the humans who have experienced the Moon Catastrophe, they feel an indescribable peace of mind here.
Five steps and one post, all of them are human soldiers with guns and weapons, and even Gauss energy weapons, there are often souls patrolling the city, and there are several spaceships flying around the city, so that even if you can often see those alien prisoners of war slaves or something in the city, it still makes everyone feel a kind of peace of mind, in fact, many humans who have just arrived in the human city, their first reaction is to cry, even if they are strong men, they can't cry at this time, as if they want to cry out all their feelingsγ
Whenever they encounter such a situation, no one laughs at them or anything else, many people stand silently, and even some young people, or girls or something, will cry secretly, because they all seem to see themselves, when they come to the human city, they see the chimneys towering, look at those somewhat dilapidated vehicles, look at the smooth highways, look at all this, there is no longer the previous disgust with civilization, yearning for green, everyone seems to have returned to a safe home, without all the burdens, just want to vent all the crying......
In such a human city, everyone's living environment is not very good, there is no running water, and they have to walk a little way every day to get back the daily water, and there are restrictions on the use of water, except for drinking, the excess can only be used to wipe the face and body.
The food is distributed according to people, there are simple wild vegetables and the like, and then some animal meat, and the food is also available, but it is not very rich, and according to the distribution of adults, children, men and women, there are different distributions, if you compare, the daily food is not as good as the daily food of a working family of three before the Ghost Catastrophe.
The dress is also very simple, because most of the captive humans who came out of the jungle or were released back by the alien race, most of them were unclothed, and a few rags were better, and many people didn't even have leaves or anything, as if they were savages, so they walked out of the jungle with their bodies, so it was urgent to wear clothes.
Because there was not enough fabric, even some waterproof canvas was pulled to make clothes, and some discarded fabrics could only be used after disinfection, not to mention any fashion, and even a pair of shoes dug out of the ground were given priority to the army, and straw sandals prevailed.
There are more problems, such as it is now summer, but Mo said that the air conditioner or something, not even an electric fan, only a few huge blowers in the square, this is still when Zhang Heng was patrolling the human city, he found that many people were suffering from heat stroke, so he ordered to wear a few, just for this, the officials of the Ministry of Construction talked every day that the electricity was not enough, but in the end, Pei Jiao dismantled one of the most dilapidated spaceships and installed the power supply system inside to the human city, which barely alleviated the problem of power shortage in the human city, but then there were protests from the Ministry of Transportation and the army......
In short, the more than 700,000 people in the human city spend every day in these difficult and chaotic days, but everyone feels sincerely at ease and at ease, because this is a human city, this is a place where human beings can be safe, secure, and dignified, and this is a place where they don't have to worry about being suddenly caught, raised, toyed with, and eaten by some alien race......
This is the City of Humans!
"Lao Zhang, do you have to go to work again?"
In a public dining hall, a master was serving everyone their own food, the food was very simple, wild vegetable porridge, plus some pickles and canned meat, and when the master saw a simple middle-aged man walk in, he immediately began to speak.
The middle-aged man smiled honestly when he heard this, took out a pack of paper balls wrapped in white paper for a long time, and then took out two cigarettes of unknown brand from it, handed one to the old master and said, "Lao Li, how is it today?
The old master took a cigarette, took a few deep breaths into the cigarette, and then carefully clipped it to his ear and said: "What are the fresh vegetables, there are fewer and fewer wild vegetables, and it is not enough to even make porridge these days, or canned food, I heard that some fields in the south have been overgrown with all kinds of vegetables, but no one has picked them, they are all rotten, I don't know if they sent a spaceship to grab a batch." β
A young man next to him suddenly smiled and said, "Master, what is possible, the energy of the spaceship's flight, that is a large amount of reserve energy, how can it be used to harvest any green vegetables? Isn't this the price of tofu into meat?"
The old master smiled and said: "The point is, now meat is not valuable, greens, fruits are very valuable, most of the greens and fruits are supplied to the military, and now there are no greens and fruits outside." β
After these words were spoken, in a few seconds, suddenly a strong man stood up and said: "Master, we all respect you, you serve everyone here every day, and everyone is well fed, we all respect and appreciate you...... But master, please don't speak ill of the army! What does it mean to give them all the vegetables and fruits? Shouldn't you give them them?"
The strong man's voice became louder and louder, as if he was already angry or something, and the middle-aged man surnamed Zhang hurriedly said: "This big brother, you can rest assured, everyone here respects the soldiers, this is not a bad word, but it is just a complaint, hehe, don't be excited, don't be excited, it's a hot day, the mood is a little angry, Xiao Li, bring my beer, I invite this big brother to drink some beer to quench the fire." β
A young man on the other side screamed, and took a can of canned beer from somewhere, although the appearance had been flattened in, but it didn't seem to be revealing or anything, and the whole can was still intact.
The middle-aged man handed the beer to the strong man, who hesitated, took the beer, and then laughed embarrassedly: "Sorry...... I'll just take a sip, okay, big brother, I haven't touched this thing in years. β
The middle-aged man smiled heartily and said, "It's okay, drink, I have a can to distribute every week, big brother, I see that your clothes are still wearing canvas clothes, so you came to Human City, right?"
The middle-aged man pulled out the lid of the can, and then took a big sip of grunt, then he sighed comfortably, and then said: "Yes, big brother, I and a few brothers have been hiding in the reeds by the river, and we don't dare to open our heads there, our *** has been soaked, I am better, and I have been discharged from the hospital, but my brothers are estimated to have major surgery...... This big brother, I'm really embarrassed just now, I was rescued by the soldiers, and there are more than 100 people rescued at the same time, all of whom are compatriots who were enslaved by the alien race by the river, if it weren't for them...... I can't hear that, I'm so sorry. β
The old master also smiled kindly: "Young man, it doesn't matter, our people here, who doesn't regard the People's Liberation Army as a benefactor? I was just joking just now, now the grain is really urgent, there is not much grain buried under the original Beijing City, and most of it is canned food, it has been several years, most of the grain has rotted, by the way, Lao Zhang is a team leader of the excavation team, he knows these details best." β
In fact, most of the people present are "newcomers" who have not yet worked, basically they have just come to the human city, or have just been discharged from the hospital, most of them are still eating fixed food every day, no work, there is no right to distribute private food, so they came to this canteen early in the morning to eat, and most of those who have jobs cook and eat by themselves, and few come to the canteen to mix big pot rice.
Lao Zhang seemed to be an accident, or he lived alone, so he came to this big canteen every morning to eat fixed food, he saw that many people around him looked straight at him, and some in the distance even came over, he lit the cigarette in his hand and took a puff, and then said: " Indeed, there is not much buried grain in the original Beijing City, after all, the grain is not comparable to household appliances or anything, at most it will rot in a few months, and even most of the canned food and the like can no longer be used, only recycled into steel materials, and most of the household appliances are also damaged, and you can only find out the specific parts from them, but everyone, you don't have to worry about the problem of insufficient food at all, do you know? β
The more Lao Zhang spoke, the more excited he became, and he pointed to the exit of the human city far away and said: "Do you know? Yesterday, when our excavation team was working there, we actually saw a rhinoceros! Really rhinoceros, and there is not just one, but a large group of them, at least hundreds!, the natural environment of the whole earth is getting better and better, as long as we don't indiscriminately collect and kill like those ancestors who didn't understand before, we will never be short of food, do you know? Now the city hall is already discussing whether to start hunting these wild animals that appear in large quantities, haha, maybe we can all eat game in a few days. β
The people around them laughed, not only happy to be able to eat fresh meat, but also happy for the prosperity of the human city, all those who have experienced the ghost catastrophe and the catastrophe of the hundred races are extremely satisfied with the human city in front of them, especially every time they hear a certain department, a certain government agency, a certain military agency or something, this feeling of peace of mind makes them calm and happy.
Because only those who have experienced the Holocaust know the importance of order, especially a strong, not repressive and brutal government at home, but in the current world, what really matters, that is, a human organizing force.
After the loss of civilization, human beings live like pigs and dogs, no one thinks that anarchy is good anymore, and everyone has made it clear that a strong government organization is needed, which is the consensus of almost everyone in Human City at present.
When Lao Zhang finished saying this, in addition to laughing, a few young and middle-aged men walked up to Lao Zhang with a smile, and then asked politely: "This big brother, I just want to ask, do you still have more places in your working group?" You see, we have all been discharged from the hospital, we are idle every day, I don't know what to do, seeing that everyone is working, we are envious, we want to contribute to the human city, you look at our physique, this muscle, not to say to you, this is how to say to you, we just find someone to come out, and it is trivial to carry two or three hundred pounds. β
Several people next to him were laughing, and a young man said while drinking porridge: "That's nothing, now that the physique of human beings has begun to increase, it is no problem to lift two or three hundred catties, if you can lift more than eight hundred catties, I have a good place to tell you." β
The people around looked at this young man strangely, because this young man was rarely wearing a brand new shirt, black jeans under the pants, and a pair of leather shoes that didn't look too old, and the whole person gave others a refreshing feeling.
The people around him noticed him, the young man smiled heartily, drank the remaining porridge in a few sips, and ate all the pickles, and then said to the people around him: "Now the situation in the world is different, lifting two or three hundred catties is just an ordinary person, if your physical fitness is really good, then go to join the army, if you can have eight hundred catties of weight, then it is no problem to join the army." β
The middle-aged man who spoke just now turned red, and said with a little embarrassment: "I'll just tell you, anyway, my strength is much stronger now, but it may be a little difficult to get to eight hundred catties...... What about you, boy, did you join the army?"
The young man was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, I have already joined the army, and I will go on the expedition the day after tomorrow, so I finally have some free time to go shopping today." β
Just when this young man said this, someone among the others suddenly seemed to recognize him, and immediately shouted: "It's Zhang Heng! It's Zhang Heng, it's the soul Zhang Heng, hello, I'm so excited, are you Zhang Heng?"
The people around were excited when they heard this, and gradually, many people came over to this side, all looking at Zhang Heng excitedly, but Zhang Heng was a little wry, he was in the name of patrolling, and went to the nurse's area early in the morning to look for Wang Xuelian, but he was told that it was three hours before the opening time of the women's dormitory...... In fact, Zhang Heng, who was too anxious, had already come to the open area of the dormitory at three o'clock in the morning, if it weren't for the fact that he was a famous soul in the human city, a hero, the founder of the southern human city, and many other names, it is likely that he would be imprisoned in the first place.
As early as after Zhang Heng returned from the moon, he knew that Wang Xuelian was actually following Novi? Tyrone and his entourage, from Europe came to the Asian Human City, as a result, he turned into a love saint, every day as soon as he had time, he pestered this little girl who was like his first girlfriend, and even had the same name, but this little girl did not have those memories of being his girlfriend, on the one hand, Zhang Heng's resounding name, on the other hand, the little girl's reserve and shyness, and some fearful emotions, as a result, he began to avoid Zhang Heng every day, and as a result, it became Zhang Heng's stalking, which was really depressed Zhang Heng.
But Zhang Heng was really reluctant, he was really reluctant to carve this person who was almost carved out of the same mold as his first girlfriend, so now he has become like this, the guards who go to Wang Xuelian's nurse camp every day to stand, gradually, this seems to have become a landscape of human city.
Zhang Heng was surrounded by many people at the moment, and he couldn't stop smiling bitterly, in fact, soul people don't need to eat food, especially a true demon-level powerhouse like him...... That's right, a true demon-level powerhouse, in the battle of Human City, his obsession was shattered, and his soul was about to dissipate, but he was completely rescued on the moon, and as a result, his strength did not decrease but rose, and he actually broke through to the true demon level at one time, and he even had his own heart and momentum field, and his strength increased by more than ten times compared to before, and he also became the strongest among the human souls.
When Zhang Heng was surrounded by many people, those people began to talk nonsense, some of them expressed respect and gratitude, some expressed their imagination for the future of Human City, and some asked Zhang Heng more practically about the Human City army.
Zhang Heng was asked helplessly, and thought that the army's next plan had been determined, and it was basically unlikely to be repeated, so he said directly: "Yes, yes, our human city will take the initiative to attack in the next step, there are our human captives, there are our people enslaved, there is our army to attack, this time the plan is to take all the alien races that have hurt us, have enslaved us, and have eaten our people, and want us to surrender!"
The surrounding humans all cheered immediately, and many of them were humans who had just been sent back from the hands of the aliens, and their eyes were immediately red, and they were panting roughly, and they really wanted to replace themselves and make themselves a member of the human city army, and go out of the human city to participate in the battle against the ancient hundred races.
Just when Zhang Heng wanted to say something more, suddenly there was an emergency air defense siren in the distance, Zhang Heng was stunned when he heard it, and then he couldn't care about anything else, and directly took off into the air and flew towards the center of the human city.
At the same time, in the distance of the human city, a huge black dragon that was pitch black for a day, the Chinese serpentine dragon, about thousands of meters long, was covered in a dark aura, and this black dragon was trembling and flying towards this direction......
