Around the world, the world is busy grappling with plastic replacement brought on by the fungal crisis.

Whether it's America, or Homo sapiens, or other powers, for a time they have reduced the frequency of doing things around the globe.

Of course, Homo sapiens took advantage of the opportunity to update the power grid equipment and expand its influence in Africa and South America.

This forced America and France to spare some of their energy to stabilize their economic colonies in South America and Africa to avoid being killed by Homo sapiens in their back gardens.

As for Australia and New Zealand, which are also in the southern hemisphere, America is quite relieved.

First, because these two places are separated from other areas by a vast ocean, it will take at least a year or two for the fungus to spread.

Second, Australia and New Zealand are very afraid and hostile to Homo sapiens, and there is basically no possibility of turning to Homo sapiens.

Therefore, America pays more attention to South America, after all, the poor and remote areas of South America are the most susceptible to the influence of Homo sapiens.

Once Homo sapiens establish control over South America, the consequence would be that North America would be much less secure.

In fact, America didn't know that the clover oak, which had been fighting with them in Latin America, had developed many secret bases in the Andes Mountains and the Amazon rainforest at this time.

Although the Black Ships guessed that the Clover Oak was supported by Homo sapiens, they still underestimated the efficiency and expansion speed of Homo sapiens.

At this time, Clover Oak had established 57 secret bases, 3,827 secret strongholds, and 470,000 new human members operating secretly throughout Latin America.

With such a huge scale, it is like snowballing, and the power and strength are increasing day by day.

South America.

Little Venice.

This small South American country, due to its extremely bad relations with America, naturally did not receive financial assistance from America.

But they understand that if they can't complete the upgrading of the power system as soon as possible, their domestic petrochemicals, steel, electrolytic aluminum, electrical appliances and communications will be scrapped.

After all, Little Venice is in the tropics, a typical tropical rainforest climate zone, and very close to the Panama Canal, and it is estimated that the fungus will arrive here soon.

After weighing the pros and cons, they decided to work with Homo sapiens.

Although it is worrying that Homo sapiens like to control the behavior of other countries, little Venice now has no choice but to choose Homo sapiens unless they are willing to kneel and lick America.

In fact, not only Little Venice, but also Brazil, Argentina, and Bolivia are all seeking cooperation with Homo sapiens, hoping to introduce the power of Homo sapiens to counter America's hegemony in South America.

Fortunately, Homo sapiens does not want to stimulate America in the near future, and only has some branches in South America, and at the same time increases emergency penetration.

Secretly, Clover Oak has withdrawn some of its manpower, disguised as a "local" company, and actively infiltrated high-level officials throughout South America.

According to the strategic plan of Homo sapiens, South America will either be a small fight or a thunderous blow.

If you control an area alone at this time, although it can be done, it is easy to provoke the panic of the surrounding forces and force them to join forces with America.

Therefore, there is no need to launch it now, but to continue to weave the net, and when the time comes, play directly in waves.

South American countries and Homo sapiens have been eye-catching, prompting America to also start increasing economic aid to South American countries.

And on the other side of the Atlantic, in Africa.

Homo sapiens was not so polite to France, and the open and secret battles between the two sides in North, West, and Central Africa were almost to the point of white-hot.

The local forces supported by both sides are fighting in full swing.

……

Meanwhile.

Whale Sea.

The Oki Islands, which were previously compensated to Homo sapiens.

When the locals heard that it had been sold to Homo sapiens, they didn't show too much emotion.

The obedience and worship of the strong are one of the characteristics of the Dongying people.

What's more, the welfare of Homo sapiens is very good, coupled with the impact of the economic crisis, Dongying's domestic economy is sluggish, and the annuity for 23 years has to be reduced by about 30%, while prices have risen by about 241%.

This has exacerbated internal discontent, especially among those at the bottom of the country, whose incomes are already low, and many of them are only able to eat soy sauce rice every day, plus miso soup and salted dried fish.

With such terrible life pressures, many people are no longer in the mood to care about how Homo sapiens bought the Oki Islands.

On the contrary, many Dongying people ran away directly, they didn't want to stay in this ghost place for a moment, wouldn't it be nice to go to Homo sapiens to lie down?

By the time the five Jinpeng transport planes arrived at the small airport in the Oki Islands on March 28, the Oki Islands, which had a population of only a few hundred, were already overcrowded, and many people were running over with their families.

Sen Shangqiang, who was in charge of taking over here, couldn't help but have a headache when he saw this scene.

"Simon, you quickly organize manpower control."

Simon, who was nibbling on tomatoes, nodded, "OK." ”

Mori has been to the Oki Islands before, which was formerly a national park, with a small fishing port and a population of less than 400.

Now he sniffed using pheromones, and the preliminary estimate was that there were more than 20,000 people here, and fortunately these people brought emergency food and instant noodles and so on.

Sen Shangqiang thought about it for a while, then turned on his mobile phone, found the phone number of the person in charge of the Lucia branch, called the other party, and asked them to help prepare a batch of food.

At this time, the Far East coast of Lucia, which has not yet completely thawed, already has a large number of Homo sapiens fleets active.

In fact, Homo sapiens' fleet never stopped sailing off the far east coast of Lucia, including the previous winter.

Originally, Lucia was in the coastal areas of the Far East, and there was a freezing period of about 100 days every year, and ordinary transport ships had no way to sail at all.

But Homo sapiens' nuclear-powered transport ships are different, because they are designed and built according to the specifications of aircraft carriers, and their hull strength is very high, so they can break the ice on their own.

Not to mention the coast of Lucia's Far East, even in the Arctic Ocean in winter, Homo sapiens' nuclear-powered transport ships can still be unimpeded.

Mori Shangqiang's request was quickly agreed to by the Lucia branch, and the other party sent two nuclear-powered transport ships to team up.

Not only food and daily necessities were transported, but also a number of building materials and simple container houses, as well as a large amount of timber and methane gas.

Mori Shangqiang and Simon in the Oki Islands are also too busy to keep their feet on the ground.

According to preliminary statistics, there were about 24,000 people on the island at this time, all of whom were family immigrants with their families.

In order to avoid chaos, Sen Shangqiang could only draw Ding first, include all young and middle-aged people in the ranks of temporary workers, and organize various preliminary infrastructure work at the same time.

The first project prepared by Sen Shangqiang was to build a temporary airport to facilitate the landing of the next Jinpeng transport plane.

For the Oki Islands, Homo sapiens did not pay much attention.

In the future, it will only become a transit point for air and sea freight, as well as a monitoring center.

As for the deployment of military forces, there is no need for that.

On the one hand, if you really fight, this kind of island does not have any buffer zone at all, and it is useless to build it firmly.

And before the official start of the war, even if there is no defense, no force will dare to touch here.

A few coastal patrol ships and a battalion of troops are sufficient.

Unless Homo sapiens gains a relatively large territory in Northeast Asia in the future, the Oki Islands may be upgraded to a military base.
