New York City, homeland of the United States.

It was just dawn, and the wind was howling, and the city, which had been rebuilt from the ruins, had already woken up from the silence of the night, and began to make noise everywhere.

What wakes people up is not the products of science and technology, such as the dazzling array of clocks, mobile phones, etc., but the thick "bells" ringed by the city guards who are on duty at night in the city.

Of course, the sound of the bell can only be heard in the vicinity of the city hall, because there is a real antique clock dragged out of the museum, which is still in good condition, and now it is the alarm clock of the city, which is responsible for being the first to make a sound, to wake up all the surviving residents of the city, and to call people to work.

In the area covered by the bell, there are a series of other duty points similar to beacons, where the night guards will use all kinds of means to break gongs, iron broken basins, scrap steel pipes, etc., to wake up the people in their own jurisdiction and pass the bell to the next duty station.

In this cycle, in a short period of time, everyone in the city can be woken up and participate in the reconstruction of the city, as well as the collection of supplies.

New New York, a new city rebuilt from the ruins of New York City, once the metropolis of the United States.

Because it was once one of the most important cities in the United States, in the first battle after the arrival of the interstellar pirates on Earth, a devastating miniature nuclear bomb was dropped here, and as many as three of them were dropped, and the finished glyph structure enveloped most of the core of New York.

After a massive explosion, the pirates' sky fighters flew away, leaving the city with a terrible mess.

After this terrible nuclear explosion. Most of the core of the entire New York City city was reduced to a ruin, and if it weren't for the pirates' miniature nuclear bomb detonation technology and the extremely high utilization rate of materials, the explosion efficiency was amazing, and all the materials were transformed in the explosion, there would be not much left at all, and I am afraid that New York would still be a nuclear wasteland now. Make it difficult for ordinary humans to survive.

However, although New York has not become a nuclear wasteland unsuitable for human life, New York City has become a real hell on earth for a while.

New York City originally had a population of tens of millions, but under a nuclear explosion, at least one million people died directly, and the core area of the city center, even the buildings and human bodies were all destroyed into a piece of dust, but a large area outside the core of the city was full of corpses. It's terrible to the extreme.

If it weren't for the fact that it was still winter, the temperature was relatively low, and there were relatively few microorganisms and bacteria, I am afraid that New York would have become a veritable corpse city, and it is not difficult to imagine the outbreak of a terrible plague.

However, Rao is like this, and the remaining population is also having a hard time, and at first there were still people who wanted to clean up and bury the corpses. But soon, everyone stopped caring about it.

It's not just that there are so many corpses that they can't be cleaned up at all. It is also because people are unable to secure even basic livelihoods.

New York City has suffered too much damage in the strong electromagnetic storm of the nuclear explosion, not only the dead people, but also other communications, electricity, water, food, transportation and other huge problems.

The whole city has become a dead city, completely losing all the ability and order to function.

Some began the Great Exodus. Trying to escape a city where even the air is starting to screak with blood and corpses.

At first, there were people who tried to escape in vehicles, but soon all the major roads around New York City were blocked, and it was difficult to mobilize and clear them.

People had to start leaving the city on foot, and the fleeing crowds formed long dragons and fled along the surrounding roads towards other cities.

As a result, the population of New York City has rapidly decreased by more than half. In the end, there are millions of people left, some of whom are reluctant to leave, and some of whom are unable to leave.

The powerful radiation produced by the nuclear explosion caused a continuous death of the population, and some people did not realize it at first, but they were just struggling to survive in the chaos after the nuclear explosion, but soon their hair fell out, their skin was eroded, and they died horribly.

For a long time after the nuclear bombing, the ruins of New York City were littered with dead bodies and bones, and the city fell into complete collapse, and social order was completely out of control in just a few days.

In the deliberate targeting of the interstellar pirates, the United States itself has fallen into an almost complete state of disorder, although the living environment in New York City is tragic to a certain extent, chaotic and bloody like purgatory on earth, countless people fight for a piece of bread, a glass of water, and die, but the organization of the United States is unable to send a little strength to support the city.

Not only was there no way to send reinforcements, but some of the surrounding cities were even expelling people who had fled from New York City, and some had to turn around and return to New York to struggle again in the dead city.

Because the surrounding cities themselves are also facing great pressure to survive, and if there is a large influx of refugees from New York, even these cities themselves can hardly bear it.

Thus, in the first period, New Yorkers were in an unprecedented predicament, and social competition became so cruel and ruthless that a glass of water and a cookie were enough to cause a deadly mess.

In this dark period of near-total disorder, New York City does not know how many people have died, and everyone's life is in jeopardy, their lives are hanging by a thread, they have eaten the last meal and the next meal, and they are still alive in the morning, and they don't know if they will die at night.

However, chaos is not the nature of human society after all, if possible, everyone is still willing to live in an orderly society, instinctively, people begin to huddle together to warm up.

In the midst of the chaos, some forces and organizations in New York City were rapidly expanded, and some gangs, police, and powerful people from all walks of life gradually got together, relying on violence and advocacy, and gradually stabilized the order of the ruins of New York City.

Centered on New York's seaside harbor and some remnants of the area, these people reorganized the city council, gradually relying on the remnants of New York City's population and materials. This new New York City was reorganized.

In order to maintain the functioning of society, the government of New York spent a lot of energy and made a lot of sacrifices, and finally formed a new set of social order and rules.

Under this new social order, despite the turmoil that occurs from time to time, everyone's life is difficult. But at least, there is a way out for everyone.

By digging up New York City's urban heritage, as well as all sorts of remnants of supplies and warehouses, everyone barely survived.

But the good times didn't last long, and the order of New York had just been established, and before it could slow down, it was targeted by pirates again.

During this time, the power of pirates on the ground has expanded very rapidly, and cities have appeared one after another with pirate agents. The pirates have made a huge profit.

The pirates quickly expanded their striking area, targeting all the other cities.

For some time, New York was so dilapidated and dilapidated that it looked like a dying ruin, so it didn't suffer much bombing and raiding.

But not anymore, the pirates who are addicted to blood drawing. The unwillingness to let go of any opportunity to make a profit has given the New York City government council an ultimatum. If you don't surrender to the pirates, act as a pirate agent, and make a large and objective donation, you will carry out a devastating bombing of New York!

In the face of the demands and persecution of the pirates, the members of the New York Council had to choose to bow their heads after several discussions.

The power of the interstellar pirates is too strong. It's not something that a small New York City can compete with, and New York is powerless to fight back against these pirates.

In radio communications, New York was forced to follow the usual specifications. A greeting list was presented to the pirate team.

It was a heavy gift, with one hundred and fifty catties of gold, ten catties of platinum, natural jewelry, jade and jade, and a number of rare and rare resources, which had consumed more than half of the hard currency that New York had stored during this time.

Originally, this was the principal that New York prepared when it wanted to trade with other cities after a period of time, and was ready to buy some urgently needed food and living materials to meet the development needs of the city...... In the troubled times, if you want to buy such scarce materials, you must use these hard currencies, the previous currency or something, you can't use it at all, no one wants it at all.

However, as soon as the gift money was handed over this time, this plan to improve people's livelihood suddenly came to an end, and the citizens had to live a hard life, secretly not knowing how many more people would die.

Not wanting to submit this gift slip to the past, the pirates were instantly furious, and sent back a very harshly worded reply, saying that New York was not sincere enough, it was completely playing tricks on the pirate masters, and if they didn't give a big enough gift, they would definitely make New York City a piece of powder!

The pirates said that with the prosperity of New York City, the gift money must be doubled, and if they can't get it, they will die.

This is really terrible news!

The officials in power in New York City are all stupid.

With such a large amount of gift money, I can't even get it out of it even if I kill them.

Yes, New York City used to be very rich, and it was one of the few prosperous and wealthy places in a top country like the United States, and there was no shortage of gold, silver, jewelry, and other things, and there were many high-end jewelry stores of all kinds of brands here, and it was impossible to count them.

However, that was all in the past, and the current New York is really not mentioned, and it cannot be compared at all.

You know, New York and the old New York City are completely different things.

There are more than 10 million people in New York City, and New New York is only about 3 million people, which is only a part of all the existing population, and there are quite a few more people who are entrenched in various places in the ruins of New York City, and they are all under the jurisdiction of New York City.

And even if it is New York City, or even the specific population of the city, it has not yet been counted.

Now New York City, that is not the city with advanced science and technology before, now the new New York is about to fall to the level of the Middle Ages, even office paper is almost impossible to take, everything is completely out of touch with the automated information age, and everything is almost carried out by manual manpower.

Being able to maintain order in the city, not to kill people in the streets, to provide the necessary food, so that all the people who come out to work can barely starve to death, this is already the greatest manifestation of the new New York City.

Now, the first thing New Yorkers do after going out is to find all kinds of necessities for life in various urban ruins, and then move back to the city, which will be collected by government workers and distributed to the corresponding personnel in return.

Everyone is struggling to survive, everyone is full of anger, not rubbing a little sand in their eyes, even if government personnel are performing official duties, they do not do the slightest bit of arrogance, because there are I don't know how many people's eyes are staring at death, and the slightest mistake may cause an uproar.

In this case, where can New York have the ability to store so much gold and silver treasures or something, and double the gift money, it is really going to force people to death!

The officials of New York broke out in a cold sweat, and desperately sent out countless messages, explaining in every possible way, asking the pirate masters to raise their noble hands and give them a way out.

Helplessly, these damn pirates didn't relax at all, and New York only chose to give in in tears.

For a while, in order to raise this large amount of gold and jewelry, the entire residents of New York City were mobilized, and the city's reserve grain depot released a lot of reserves, and a large number of people were mobilized to explore the ruins of the city, which finally raised this gift money.

But that's not all, the next pirate review is the focus, I heard that now the pirate review is becoming more and more strict and oppressive, and the officials of New York have a headache, but they have to make all kinds of arrangements and make too many compromises.

At this time, from the sky, from all corners of the city, a large number of people poured out, these people were ragged, yellow and thin, unkempt, and tangled hair, and each of them looked like refugees.

Despite living in New York, the ruins of a once-cosmopolitan metropolis have long since lost their former glory.

Not to mention driving to work or something, many people who come out to work don't even have a pair of suitable cotton shoes, and there are many people who wear different pairs of shoes on their feet.

All the people who had been notified that they had been working for many days in this arduous task involving all the people of the city came out of their humble huts and walked along the messy, dilapidated streets, full of discarded goods and all kinds of drowning and animal excrement, and in the streets full of dilapidated and dilapidated houses, where not a single intact glass could be found, to the meeting points in the city.

(Sorry, there was something to delay the update in the past two days, and the two updates will be resumed tomorrow.) (To be continued.) )
