Chapter 192: Heading for the Coastal Defense Line
Regarding the matter of becoming a guest adviser to the official supermanagement bureau, Qiao Xiu himself was not very rejected, so he agreed after thinking about it.
Because Yang Zhen used to be a guest advisor to the Maocheng Official Overmanagement Bureau, he can now be regarded as an apprentice inheriting the identity of the master.
The Keqing Advisor and the Super Management Bureau belong to a cooperative relationship, and they will not be bound by various rules and orders from their superiors like officially joining the government, and in general, it is also in line with Qiao Xiu's idea of yearning for freedom and unfettered.
As a guest advisor, you can selectively accept some officially issued tasks, and you can get corresponding merit rewards after each mission is completed.
And the merits within the official can be exchanged for various cultivation resources from the official in special currency.
Not only that, becoming a guest advisor is equivalent to having a semi-official identity, you can get some convenience for information sharing from the official, and you can also pull the official tiger skin at some time, and let the official act as your own background backer, so that it will be much more convenient to do things in ordinary times.
In general, there are pros and cons to accepting such an identity, and in general the pros outweigh the disadvantages.
......
After everything was ready, Maocheng officials began to convey the emergency summons.
Soon, the people in the urban area of Maocheng, the following major counties, and the major towns and villages received this summons.
In addition to the official summons, videos of the situation on the coastal defense line were also disseminated on television and the Internet.
Although the video caused some panic, it also inspired many people to defend their families and countries under the official propaganda.
So when the official departments at all levels in Maocheng and the counties and towns below set up recruitment points, many people soon took the initiative to go there and enthusiastically sign up.
Among them, there are many transcendents who have awakened among the people, and there are also many ordinary people who have not awakened.
Among these ordinary people are not only retired veterans, but also many more young men from all walks of life.
Less than a day after the emergency summons were announced, hundreds of folk transcendents and tens of thousands of ordinary people had already signed up all over Maocheng.
I have to say that the patriotic education that Hua Hanguo has always done is still very in place and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The rise and fall of a country is no longer a phrase written in a book or casually on the lips, but a life motto that many people keep in mind.
It may not be used in normal times, but when it comes to a critical moment, many people will volunteer to participate fearlessly.
......
"These damn otherworldly people dare to invade our Blue Star, it's really damn ......"
"That is, there are still those beasts in the sea, endlessly, if they break through the coastal defense line, then won't our Maocheng have to finish playing?"
"No, they must not be allowed to break through the coastal defense line......"
"Official warriors and countless civilian transcendents are fighting bloodily to defend us, and we cannot afford to watch them die......"
"Let's go, sign up, and the big guys will go and support them......"
"Let's go, count me in ......"
"Wait, and ...... me"
......
As time went on, the more people became aware of the dangerous predicament that Maocheng was facing, and the more people went to the various recruitment points to sign up.
Soon, the number of Awakened Transcendents who signed up exceeded a thousand.
The entire Maocheng area has a population of millions, and it is conservatively estimated that the number of awakened people is only about a few thousand, and more than half of them have already gone to the coastal defense line to participate in the battle.
In other words, the transcendents who went to sign up within this day already accounted for a large proportion of the transcendents left behind in various places.
Although most of them have only just awakened, or they are ordinary in talent and relatively underground in the Extraordinary First Order, they are also a lot of power when they come together.
Compared with the transcendental, the number of ordinary people who signed up was more, and soon it had exceeded 30,000, if it were not for the conscription with certain requirements, to block out some of the people who have a patriotic heart, but their own physical fitness and ability are relatively weak, then the number of people who have joined the rescue team now is far more than these.
"Okay, very good, the people in our Maocheng area are all good......"
"Yes, in any case, with this group of new forces joining, the pressure on the coastal defense line should be eased a bit. ”
"According to the threshold we have set, anyone who joins the rescue force, whether it is an extraordinary person or an ordinary person, has no bad physical fitness and ability in all aspects, as long as he has a little training and is equipped with weapons, he can become a qualified fighter......"
"Yes, it's a pity that I don't know how many people will be able to come back in the end......"
"Alas, this is also something that cannot be helped, I just hope that the provincial capital can free up its forces as soon as possible and send troops to support us......"
......
After receiving the news about the recruitment of personnel from the following report, the leaders of the official overmanagement bureau left behind were very satisfied.
Judging from the current situation, they can at least form a support force of tens of thousands or even 100,000 people.
When they go to the coastal defense line, not to mention turning the tide of the inferior battle, they will at least be able to support it for a while.
When the provincial city clears the space and sends a large army to support, there will be a chance to repel these sea beasts and the otherworldly people behind them.
......
"Here is a list, which is urgently investigated by the intelligence officers below, and some of them have criminal records and civil transcendents who do not obey discipline, some of them are hiding in the shadows, not only do not respond to the call, but also want to take advantage of the urgent situation of the coastal defense line, our official remaining forces are empty and jump out to make trouble, before the conscripted support troops and most of our internal forces are transferred to the coastal defense line, in order to ensure the stability of the rear, I suggest that they be forcibly recruited, and those who are bad in nature and commit evil deeds will be directly and humanely destroyed......"
"Is this going to happen? If the tactics are too violent, will they cause a bad backlash?"
"I can't manage so much in extraordinary times......"
"That's right, it is said that in troubled times, you should use heavy codes, and now the situation is similar. An existential war is just around the corner, and those black sheep really can't stay......"
"Seconded ......"
"Approve ......"
......
As the number of people signed up increased, the support units were quickly integrated and then moved to the coastal defense line.
However, before that, the official leadership also needs to deal with some unstable factors, so as not to cause problems in the rear after the departure of the support troops, because the official forces left behind are too weak.
The biggest destabilizing factor in this is the individual restless transcendents.
Although a considerable number of them have been officially eliminated or imprisoned in special prisons, there are still many of them hiding in the dark corners of the Maocheng area, jumping out from time to time to do something.
For transcendent criminals who have already been imprisoned, the authorities have decided to use some special means to bring them to the coastal defense line to contribute.
For the rest of those who are at large, the authorities have also decided to mobilize their greatest forces to clean them up.
"According to the intelligence, these transcendents hiding in the shadows, as well as a few transcendent second-order existences, we may not be able to mobilize enough strength to ensure that we can clean them up......"
"It's okay, just mobilize a few extraordinary second-order people from the county towns and towns below to form a special clean-up team. ”
"Well, among the folk transcendents who have signed up, there are also several who have reached the second level of transcendent cultivation strength, so it should be okay to invite them in......
"When the time comes, it should be foolproof to ask Qiao Xiu Keqing to be the leader of this kind of team......
......
After some discussion, Maocheng officials decided on a specific way to deal with it.
"Mr. Qiao, that's the general thing, I don't know what you think?"
After the leaders made up their minds, they immediately sent someone to inform Qiao Xiu.
"Okay, no problem. ”
After listening to the other party's explanation, Qiao Xiu thought that if those transcendent criminals hiding in the shadows were left behind by the power, it would indeed be a big hidden danger, so he quickly agreed.
Anyway, the official has used special means to roughly grasp the whereabouts of these people, and he only needs to bring people over.
"Okay, let's go arrange ...... right away"
After getting Qiao Xiu's consent, the official quickly began to prepare.
The first step is to form a cleanup team.
As the official order was issued, the county towns and towns below soon had official transcendent second-order arrivals.
Because the counties and towns below also needed to maintain stability, the Maocheng officials only sent a part of the second-order transcendents with relatively strong strength to come up.
Counting the several transcendent second-order who had just signed up to join the support force, a temporary clean-up team composed of all transcendent second-order and only ten people was formed.
Then Qiao Xiu, who was the strongest, naturally became the captain of this clean-up team.
"Old Fan, I didn't expect you to come too......"
When he saw Fan Li, Qiao Xiu was a little surprised.
Although the people who knew the official in Maocheng selected people from below to form a clean-up team according to their strength, and Fan Li's strength was placed in the sub-bureaus of the Super-Management Bureau in dozens of towns in the three counties below Maocheng, and it was also at the top, but Qiao Xiu thought that Fan Li, who had just escaped from the collapsed secret space not long ago, would not die, and finally went home to reunite with his wife and children, and would choose to stay in Nanzhen to preside over the overall situation.
"Well, the coastal defense line is in an emergency, and as a member of the government, I naturally have to do my part. When I heard that I was going to clean up those secret pests in advance, I took the initiative to sign up. ”
"Haha, too, with your character, how can you miss this kind of thing......"
......
Seeing Fan Li was just a small episode, and it did not affect the orderly progress of the clean-up operation.
After a brief exchange between the two, they each entered their own roles.
Qiao Xiu, as the captain of the clean-up team, has learned about relevant information and matters from official personnel in Maocheng.
So after all the team members gathered, he began to explain and mobilize.
"This kid ......"
Fan Li sat down as a team member and watched Qiao Xiu with a calm face, and explained the details of the action in a calm and powerful voice, remembering that not long ago, he was the captain and Qiao Xiu was the team member, and he felt a little emotional for a while.
It's not that because of the reversal of the identities of the two, Fan Li feels unbalanced in his heart, but seeing that his young friend has grown to this day at an extraordinary speed, no matter his strength, good deeds, status, or status, he will inevitably have some different feelings in his heart.
Especially the changes in strength, Qiao Xiu only broke through the transcendent second order not long ago, and now the announced strength has reached the peak of the transcendent second order, and it is even comparable to the half-step transcendent third order, this kind of advanced speed is like riding a rocket.
Thinking about himself, he had experienced life and death in the secret realm space before, and with the special nourishment of the Spirit Treasure Flying Knife, he had finally broken through to the transcendent second-order intermediate level.
Counting the age of the two and the time they have been in contact with cultivation, the gap between them is really too big.
But no matter what, Fan Li was still very relieved.
With such a big master as Qiao Xiu leading the team, I believe that they will definitely be able to eliminate and clean up those pests hiding in the shadows, and smoothly ensure the stability of the rear.
Then they can safely run to the coastal defense line to defend against the invasion of otherworldly people and sea beasts.
......
"Okay, there is the information and tracking means provided by the official, and then we just need to start breaking them one by one. First of all, we have to concentrate our efforts on cleaning up the transcendent criminals in and around the Maocheng urban area, and then we can divide our troops into several roads and go to the county towns below to clean up ......."
After explaining all the details, Qiao Xiu began to establish a specific course of action for the next step.
"Let's go, without further ado, let's go......"
After speaking out and discussing with everyone, the action plan was gradually improved, and then Qiao Xiu began to lead the team to set off.
......
"Damn, who are you......"
"Ah, the official lackey, you want to arrest me? No way......"
"Kill ......"
......
Because before the operation, the Maocheng officials had used various means such as Skynet to find out the main transcendent criminals lurking in and around the Maocheng City, so Qiao Xiu and the others were easily able to lock them up one by one, and then round them up or round them up......
Several of these transcendent criminals are not weak in strength and have reached the transcendent second order, but it is a pity that when they encounter Qiao Xiu and their clean-up team composed of all transcendent second-order, they have no power to fight back at all, let alone the slightest possibility of escaping, and they are either arrested on the spot or killed on the spot.
During this period, Qiao Xiu only made one move, dealing with a criminal whose cultivation strength had reached the transcendent second-order, and the use of secret methods could burst out of the transcendent second-order high-level strength.
Although the strength of this criminal after the outbreak was quite amazing, it was a pity that he met Qiao Xiu, whose strength was comparable to that of a half-step transcendent third-order.
As a result, he was hammered to death by several students in Qiao Xiu's face.
It took half a day for Qiao Xiu and the others to finally clean up the extraordinary criminals in Maocheng City.
"Time is of the essence, and now we have to split up. Lao Fan, you lead a team to clean up Nanzhen and a nearby area. Cheng Jun, Liu Bai, each of you leads a team and is responsible for the townships in the other two directions...... In the end, the three major counties were handed over to me to deal with......"
After cleaning up the main transcendent criminals in and around Maocheng City, Qiao Xiu, as the captain, began to divide the entire cleanup team into four teams, each responsible for an area of dozens of towns in the three counties below Maocheng.
Among them, Qiao Xiu himself is in charge of the three major county seats, because the transcendent criminals in the shadows of the county are stronger than those below.
Then Qiao Xiu divided the entire squad into three teams, and each team selected a team leader to be responsible.
Fan Li and the other two Cheng Jun Liu Bai, as the three strongest in the team except Qiao Xiu, became the captains of one of the squads.
The next action was carried out relatively smoothly with the full cooperation of the Maocheng officials and the official forces of the following counties and townships.
Those extraordinary criminals who hibernated in the shadows faced the government's all-out search, and there was nothing to hide, and then they were found and eliminated by the cleanup team.
The recruitment is still going on over there, and the clean-up is not idle.
Soon, when Qiao Xiu and the others cleaned up all the slightly stronger transcendent criminals in Maocheng, the recruitment activity was slowly coming to an end.
In the end, the number of civilian transcendents who took the initiative to sign up for the rescue team reached nearly 2,000, while the number of other non-transcendents who signed up reached 50,000.
After the huge team was pulled up, the official personnel quickly arranged to move on to the next stage.
The first is that all the people who signed up for the rescue team were quickly gathered together and formed a temporary military camp.
Officials then began handing out weapons to those who supported the team.
These weapons range from thermal weapons such as guns, bombs, grenades, to various cold weapons such as knives, guns, swords, and halberds.
Among them, hot weapons are mainly supplied to retired veterans and ordinary participants, while cold weapons are mainly supplied to those who are extraordinarily awakened.
It's not enough to have a weapon, everyone needs to receive some simple but effective basic guidance before setting off for the coastal defense line.
Chief among them is the use of various thermal weapons.
Originally, Huahanguo has always been the most stable country in the Blue Star society, in which guns and other hot weapons are very strictly controlled, and ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to see guns and hot weapons in real life, let alone operate and use them.
Later, the spirit tide returned, the transcendent awakened, and the door of space appeared, although the official did not relax the control of guns and hot weapons, but allowed a lot of related common sense knowledge to spread.
Therefore, although these ordinary people who signed up for the draft did not have the opportunity to contact the use of firearms and thermal weapons before, they also had a considerable understanding.
Then, you only need to touch the real thing, and with the correct guidance of the official staff, you will soon be able to grasp the basic usage method.
Although it is difficult to use it proficiently in a short period of time, the coastal defense line is faced with an endless number of marine beasts, and if you really want to go there, as long as you can shoot, it is estimated that you can hit it without aiming.
"Okay, I believe everyone is almost ready, then we will rush to the coastal defense line, I wish you all a triumphant return......"
The tight time passed very quickly, and when all the people in the support force had mastered the basic operation of the weapons in their hands, and the official leader in charge gave the order, they were about to leave for the coastal defense line.
A support force of tens of thousands of people, led by a group of experienced active duty fighters and transcendents selected by the government, marched from the temporary military camp near the city of Maocheng towards the coast.
Qiao Xiu, as the strongest guest advisor, although he has no experience in commanding troops, he is still at the forefront with the official person in charge.
