"War?"

Andy turned his head to look at Chrissy, and took a closer look at the woman's face, which was a little dark under her eyes, only because the messy hair was hiding it and making it difficult to see easily.

"How long?"

Chrissy sighed.

"Until now."

Andy looked at Chrissy suspiciously, puzzled by the civil strife in the NCR.

"According to you, NCR is a serious country with such weak control over the country?"

"It's that weak."

Chrissy looked at the stream on the side, where a large number of fish jumped out of the water, a scene that is definitely rare in the wasteland nowadays.

"NCR, or the Republic of New California, started out as a small town, but the small group was fortunate that most of their original members came from the Vault, had a good level of education, and none of the knowledge they had inherited from the Vault had been lost. There are many powerful people who have come forward to provide hope for the growth of this regime, so it has grown stronger and stronger... It wasn't until the great President Tandi announced the political union of five regions divided into states to form the new Republic of Livonia, so the NCR was not monolithic from the start. The Brotherhood of Steel was also one of the five states involved in the formation of the Republic, and their official administrative division within the Republic was Maxson State, which had a high degree of autonomy in terms of politics, military, economy, etc., and this was not unique among the five states. ”

Chrissy pulled out a photograph from her dress, which looked a little shabby, but it was okay to preserve, showing an elderly woman in a modest suit waving to the people below, with a loving and majestic smile on her face.

"This is President Tanti, it can be said that without her there would be no NCR, her political ability is very strong, and she easily completed the sorting out and resolution of the internal contradictions in the republic.... She was a great woman, on the one hand, she allowed people to gradually build up faith in the republic, and on the other hand, she was able to treat all groups as equally as possible with a policy of leniency, and she was like a saint. ”

Chrissy cherished the retracted photo.

"Can you imagine? In this terrible apocalypse, the concept of the state in the old world can be established again in reality and maintain long-term stable operation, a group of people with very different ideas and behaviors stand under the same two-headed bear banner because of her, she even enacted the racial equality law, protect the rights and interests of the ghouls from being violated, and even tolerate the remnants of those bishops... Even the foolish tribesmen are grateful for her kindness, and many tribes around NCR revere her as the Great Mother. ”

"She is my idol, and the republic under her rule is the hope of the wasteland that everyone yearns for, but alas.... Even if she is just a person, if she is a person, there will be a day when she dies, and when President Tandi dies, everything changes. ”

It's not boring for two people to just walk around in this green water, in fact, both of them feel like they're in paradise, and Andy even thinks that people who live in such a place should never be discovered by outsiders, otherwise everything will be completely destroyed.

"You said NCR has changed, where has it changed?"

Chrissy took her steps as loosely as Andy.

"All of it.... President Tandi is like the soul of NCR, and after her death, everything changed... Vice President Joanna Tibet was elected the third NCR president after President Tandy, but she was only a follower of President Tanti. She does not have enough political ability, and she is torn between political opinions, and she wants to continue President Tanti's policy of softness, but she is weak in the face of interference from various forces. ”

"The rich people are exerting their influence violently, they want to annex more land and raise more Brahmins. Those tribesmen and marauders began to raid the NCR, but on the one hand, she did not agree to direct armed retaliation, and on the other hand, she could not settle the conflict through diplomatic means.... The NCR is in a stagnant pool, and the problems are coming up one after another, the soldiers complain that she is a weak girl, and in the face of those provocations to the dignity of the NCR, she only knows how to calm down, civilians complain that the opportunities to make a lot of money are getting fewer and fewer, and the rich people complain about why she didn't hurry up and cancel the plan set by President Tanti... What they call anachronistic restrictions. ”

Chrissy looked around.

"Despite being a woman, I have to say that President Tibbette is not suitable for the position, and NCR needs a strong politician to level everything out... The only solution to all the problems that President Tibbert could think of was to give all the complaining people something to do, and she set off the Eastward Movement, where soldiers were sent to build fortifications in this distant land and occupy the land to fight a never-ending war, where the civilians could find new opportunities to make a fortune, and the capitalists who had made a lot of money.... But is it really the right choice? ”

Andy stopped, and there were traces of houses and farmland on an unnatural flat land in front of him, but now they were all destroyed, with traces of violent dismantling and arson, but these traces were not ancient, and seemed to have been destroyed recently.

There was no sign of anyone, neither the people who lived here nor the vandals.

Andy chuckled in his heart, looking at it like this, I'm afraid that the people who live here have been treated rudely by people from outside.... It's just that I don't know where those people went, whether they fled or were killed, and the saboteurs didn't know where they went, and now all that remains is a mess.

Who lives here? A small group of tribesmen who stumbled upon it and settled here?

Do they have a relationship with the shelter they are looking for?

Andy felt a question mark in his head.

Chrissy walked around with her submachine gun and soon noticed something strange.

"No, there's something wrong with this place, Andy, do you see that?"

Andy glanced up at Chrissy looking at the farmland and houses, and he thought about it for a moment and realized that something was wrong.

"It's really wrong, the land here actually has traces of mechanized operations, and the houses are like templated assembly line products.... But there is no reason why this is the way it is, and is there any high-tech relic of the old world in this isolated place? ... I'm afraid this place should have something to do with the shelter I'm looking for. ”

Andy scans around and sees that behind this deserted village is the cliffy slope of Mesa Verde, that is, similar to the layout of the crypto tribe, which can provide a back road for the village in an emergency, only a ladder is needed....

He stopped and looked into the distance, and soon saw that there was a native dressed in leaves in the high woods looking at him.
