Chapter 757: Difficult choice, balance of power!
“Rebellion?”
Hearing Ning Chao’s silly and blunt words, more than a dozen people present laughed louder in unison.
For Chinese people, this term that is almost rooted in their blood is indeed not unfamiliar.
Whether it is the mourning of the day, the death of all of you, the peace of the princes and generals, or the death of the famous Cangtian, the rise of Huangtian.
Looking through history books, you can basically see stories of people rising up to resist in all dynasties.
However.
For a small dragon and phoenix territory, these two words are still too heavy, or exaggerated.
"We are not rebelling. We want Longgou to fulfill his promise and lead the refugees to live a better life!"
Ge Jianan cleared his throat and spoke in a relaxed tone. The purpose of everyone gathering here.
"When Long Zheng originally chose to establish the Dragon Phoenix Territory and recruit us, the first generation of citizens to make up the number, he made a personal promise, promising us that no matter what time comes, he will definitely put the living conditions of the citizens first. position, if he violates this promise, he is willing to step down from his position as lord"
"But now"
"He has reached an agreement with Wuya Mansion to build the Dragon Phoenix Territory into a A trade road fortress stuck on the neck of Tianyuan territory to achieve an ulterior strategic purpose. When the agreement is completed, he can really just slap his ass and leave, but we, the territorial citizens, will be miserable. Being forced to work here by him using such high-pressure methods, he will have to bear the name of helping the tyrants in the future."
"Besides, in this process, the Tianyuan Territory is not a good source of trouble. Once they are discovered, they will be dispatched. If we use any means to counterattack, we people will definitely die!"
After Ge Jianan finished speaking, he pulled out a slightly rusty steel knife from the rack with weapons on one side of the cave and threw it directly at Ning Chao! before.
"They are the minions of the Dragon Dog and our enemies"
"You have two choices now, either go up and prove that you are still a Chinese and still have some anger in your chest, or."
Before he finished speaking, Ge Jianan stopped with satisfaction.
Being able to persist in the wasteland for eight years, except for some saints among the people who have been protected from the beginning, the people struggling at the bottom are almost licking their own blood.
During the decisive battle between humans and aliens, the entire New World was filled with battlefields almost everywhere.
Everyone was cut out of the Shura field with a steel knife and a lot of courage to survive until now.
Like Ning Chao, although Wen Wen looked weak and his face was sallow.
But in fact, when Ge Jianan just said the two options, he was already holding the handle of the knife while sitting on the ground, obviously making a decision in his heart.
“Save no, no, don’t kill me, I am Hu Hu, the captain of the third defense team!”
“Kill me, Lord Dragon Dragon will never let you go. ! ”
The man in the middle who was tied to the pillar was still struggling for help, but he saw Ning Chao walking towards him step by step with a steel knife.
His cry for help stopped suddenly, replaced by tears of fear.
But it was too late.
"Don't blame me, even if I don't kill you, you guys can't get out of this cave." Standing up straight, Ning Chao swallowed and forced himself to calm down.
“When you chose to follow Long Zhengchu and bully us, you should have thought of the consequences”
"No, we still have something to talk about. I can help you. Ah!!!"
Click.
Before Hu Hu finished speaking, Ning Chao slashed him directly in the chest with a knife, splattering out a fountain of black and red blood.
The blood had a bit of a fishy smell, but when it sprayed onto Ning Chao's face, he suddenly showed a perverted intoxication.
Click.
Another knife.
However, it was not Ning Chao who drew the sword, but Ge Dabao who was on the side and stepped forward and slashed Hu Hu's neck cleanly, ending his pain and screams.
"Ning Chao, welcome to join"
"Thank you, Dabao!" Throwing the knife on the ground, Ning Chao stretched out his bloody right hand and held it tightly with Ge Dabao.
The other onlookers nodded and quickly stepped forward to help deal with the extremely bloody scene.
The whole scene looks strange and harmonious.
No one panicked, and no one yelled. Even the women who were watching did not have any emotional changes. They were still preparing dinner for everyone while talking and laughing.
In the eyes of these people, it seemed as if the people who died just now were not of the same kind, but of a foreign race with a blood feud.
"Dabao, I have to confess something to you, a very important thing"
"Huh?"
The two wiped their hands and came to one side.
As soon as he sat down, Ning Chao turned his head in a firm tone as if he had decided something.
"You have no problem overthrowing the rule of Long Laogou. Even if there are only a dozen of us, it is not impossible to succeed. This kind of resistance has been staged too many times in the New World, and even now we can still Buy those successful cases from the bookstore and use them to learn and imitate"
"But Long Zhengchu, no, the Dragon and Phoenix Territory is definitely not as simple as you think"
"I"
Ning Chao pondered for a while and waited until Ge Jianan came over before he organized what he wanted to say next.
"The people from Wuya Mansion have already arrived. They are right next to Long Zhengchu, waiting for the big fish to take the bait!"
"What!" The unknown feeling in Ge Jian'an's heart suddenly surged. out.
His mind repeatedly flashed through the information that everyone had discovered these days, as well as the structural defense map of Longyin Town.
This place is not as mysterious as Tianyuan Territory.
The town is not big and its structure is simple.
As long as outsiders come, even if the people living inside cannot detect it immediately, they can still detect clues through subsequent changes.
But after this week of investigation, there is no problem at all.
It is absolutely impossible for Wuya Mansion to send someone to lurk here quietly!
“Uncle Ge, I don’t know how much information you have detected, but I am certain that this time it is definitely a trap”
"This is what happened."
Ning Chao began to lower his head and remember.
“Eight days ago at night, that is, the third day after the hail disaster ended.”
“It was probably around two o’clock at night. Because the supplies were confiscated, I lay down at night. I was so hungry that I couldn't sleep. I got up and searched the whole house but couldn't find any food to satisfy my hunger."
"But just when I was going to sleep, I heard some movement outside."
After straightening out the wrinkles on his clothes, following Ning Chao's story, Ge Jianan seemed to see that night before his eyes.
“It was a foreign caravan of nearly a hundred people. It was being surrounded by people from the defense team and was rushing towards the market like cattle.”
“ At that time, many people like me who were not asleep or woken up were still lying on the wall and gloating, thinking that they were also unlucky and happened to encounter Long Laogou going crazy, and now they would be robbed of all the supplies."
< br>"What I never expected was." Ning Chao scratched his head: "At four o'clock in the night, my head suddenly got hot for some reason, and I wanted to take advantage of the time before dawn when everyone is most sleepy. Let’s see if these people will resist, and if I can get something out of the fire.”
“Are you saying there is something wrong with this group of impounded caravans?” Ge Jianan frowned, and this previous sentence flashed through his mind. Ignored information.
Much like what Ning Chao said, there was indeed a lot of movement when the caravan entered the city that night.
Not to mention he saw it, almost half of the people in the entire Dragon Phoenix Territory were woken up and saw the whole process.
It’s just people’s subconscious sympathy that prevents most people from suspecting the true origin of this caravan. They just think that they are just passing caravans as usual.
Passing it around, when Ge Jianan collected this information, he didn't pay much attention to it and subconsciously ignored it. "Uncle Ge, it's not that they have a problem, they have dug a hole and are waiting for their prey to jump in"
"That night, I quietly went out and touched the tail of the caravan by familiarizing myself with the terrain. I also took advantage of the few minutes when the defense team changed defenses, and finally touched the area near the last car on this cargo transport. But When I quietly cut open a bit of the tarpaulin to steal some food, guess what I touched."
Feeling distressed and spending ten points, Ning Chao stretched out his hand to fish in the air and took out a fist-sized one. Steel ball.
Storage space can be regarded as a real luxury at this stage.
Not to mention the points that are consumed when opening. Every time you store something, you have to pay one point every day as a price.
The main reason why Ning Chao spent such a price to save it was still.
"Burn Hai Lei!" Ge Jianan's pupils opened slightly, and he quickly took the ball from Ning Chao's hand and put it in front of his eyes to examine it.
Sure enough, a line of numbers is clearly engraved on the bottom of the ball.
FH-WYF-3-5-119!
"Uncle Ge, that car is full of these things. How can an ordinary caravan dare to transport this thing? This is equivalent to selling large quantities of weapons. Small territories like ours can't buy them. The big territory doesn’t need it at all!”
“What’s more, if this sea-burning mine goes out, I’m afraid the level of those in our territory defense team will be at least half dead. How can this be done? The caravan was captured easily." Ning Chao knew that if he didn't speak clearly now and Ge Jianan led his team to act impulsively, the Burning Sea Thunder might have to fall on them.
"I suspect that the person they are waiting for is the Tianyuan Territory. Once the Tianyuan Territory sends people to obstruct the construction of the commercial fortress, and even uses force, they will not only be caught breaking the principle of non-attack, but also use it as an excuse. They will be caught off guard by these weapons and suffer heavy casualties."
"I think we should not get involved in this muddy water. Wuya Mansion and Tianyuan Territory Family have a great cause, and it doesn't matter even if a thousand people die. But we only have one life and little combat experience. We can sneak away without being noticed by these ambushing people, but if we are noticed by them."
Ning Chao did not say any more. After looking at Fen Hailei and the cave space, the meaning is self-evident.
The small Burning Sea Mine is not a high-tech weapon. Any territory with an industrial base can manufacture it according to the drawings.
But it is precisely because it is simple to manufacture, easy to use, and powerful.
In the wars between humans and alien races, talents have repeatedly shown their miraculous effects, causing heavy losses to the alien races.
And depending on the "private goods" added by each major territory, the detonation range of the sea-burning mine produced by Wuya Mansion is much larger than that of other territories.
It can reach about three times the range of ordinary sea-burning mines, and its lethality is enough to easily kill any living thing within ten meters of the center of the explosion, and severely damage other living things within thirty meters.
"The Burning Sea Thunder Disguise Targets the Tianyuan Territory" Ge Dabao, who was standing by the side, was shocked in his heart.
When Ge Jian'an said that he would overthrow the rule of Long Dog, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night long, wishing to get rid of the hard days immediately.
But now, when he heard Ning Chao say this, he suddenly felt a sense of fear in his heart.
The first big taboo that ordinary people must abide by if they want to survive in the New World is that they must not get involved in disputes over large territories.
Because of the non-attack agreement, large-scale territories often make moves based on secret calculations.
It is in secret that they take off their disguise and reveal their true nature.
Once involved, the consequences may be disastrous.
"Dad, if this is what Ning Chao said, our plan might be..."
"No, don't worry, let me think about it." Interrupting his son, Ge Jianan held Fen Hai tightly. Ray sat aside.
His brows were furrowed and his face was solemn, as if he was calculating the consequences of different decisions.
Even after a long time, Guan Taohua shouted three times in a row to eat.
Ge Jianan still lowered his head, mumbling back and forth as if possessed.
Not everyone is born with strategic thinking, and not everyone can combine information to calculate the probability of success.
If the person standing behind him was not the Heroes Association, but the Tianyuan Territory, Ge Jianan would never hesitate at all.
Compared with the petition to overthrow the Dragon Phoenix Territory, it is obviously more sincere and more valuable to destroy the secret hand of Wuya Mansion.
But it’s a pity.
The adult behind him is just a private shop owner in a small town in Tianyuan territory.
Even through the agreement token, the Soviet leader had already told him that a strong support would be arriving soon.
But can there be support from An Ziqiang, who is lurking from Wuya Prefecture?
Can you withstand the continuous bombardment of a truckload of sea-burning mines?
“Is it really necessary to give up?”
When he thought about the fact that he had not thoroughly investigated it four days ago, he accepted the agreement with the leader of the Soviet Union.
Ge Jianan's eyes were deep, and he stood up and walked to the dining table.
Compared to the Tianyuan Territory where the people live a prosperous life, everyone’s dinner is very simple.
There are only four dishes and one soup for almost twenty people.
But for Ning Chao, who had been hungry for several days, even if these four dishes were all wild vegetables from Yanba, there were basically no meat residues in the bowl, so he was allowed to drink it. The food is extremely sweet and the food is extremely enjoyable.
"Jian'an, what's wrong? Come over for dinner quickly"
Guan Taohua's brother Guan Zhe squeezed aside to make way for Ge Jianan to sit down.
"Okay, okay" Ge Jian sat down absentmindedly, forced a smile, picked up his rice bowl and started eating.
Not long after, when the bowl was empty, Ge Jianan remembered that he had only eaten white rice the whole time and completely forgot to add vegetables.
But when he raised his head, he was surprised to find that everyone in the cave had put down their bowls and turned their eyes over.
"Okay, I have to tell you something." Putting down his job, Ge Jianan raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his mouth.
He did not choose to hide it, but relayed Ning Chao's words very frankly, and handed Fen Hailei out to each other.
"Does that mean there is a lurking Wuya Mansion army hiding in the city? And it also carries a large number of weapons?" Guan Zhe was the last one to take the Fenhai Lei, and said cautiously after observing with a solemn expression. .
"There is a high probability that we subconsciously ignored these impounded caravans during the investigation, and even thought about seeing if we could mobilize these people to cause greater chaos. Fortunately, we did not Act rashly, otherwise the consequences may be disastrous," Ge Jian'an said solemnly.
He seemed to see what Guan Zhe was thinking.
“Now we have two choices. One is to give up the mission directly. I have some survival points, which is enough to support everyone in purchasing the lowest level status in other territories, but everyone has to pay for the ticket. Responsible”
"Second, choose to continue to implement the plan and formulate and implement a more bold plan. The so-called wealth is gained through danger. When the support sent by that adult is in place, I will try to build a bridge through them. Once we can connect with the real people in Tianyuan Territory, Managers are on the line"
I never thought I would take such a risk. After Ge Jianan finished speaking, he was shocked.
However.
It was quite different from the result he got when he thought about it.
After hearing the results of the two routes, everyone present except the women Guan Taohua and Guan Zhe were a little hesitant.
The men who followed him to explore during the day all showed excitement, and they were obviously not planning to just give up and run away.
“Jian’an, it’s not an easy thing for us just to influence the balance of power.” Guan Zhe smiled bitterly: “Besides, haven’t we, the lord you mentioned, been able to influence the balance of power in the past two days? Have you collected information? He just joined the Tianyuan Territory more than a month ago. How can he be related to a big shot in the territory? What's more, even if he sends support, it will be good without holding us back. You still count on them."
“I know, but there is always a chance, right?”
“Escape, yes, we start from scratch. In the past, we could take the children around when they were little, but now they As we grow up, the pressure on our shoulders will only become smaller."
"Fighting is also possible. The advantage now is that the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark. We still have a lot of time to investigate and make plans. plan, and compared with the ferocious aliens we faced before, they are like docile lambs who can use human weapons, as long as we can "destroy" their weapons, or even get their weapons to arm ourselves"
He stared at Fen Hailei placed on the table.
This time, after Ge Jianan finished speaking, the cave became quiet for a while.
Including Guan Zhe, he did not refute, but lowered his head and thought deeply, with all kinds of consequences and future flashing in his mind.
