Doomsday Hunter - Vol 3 Chapter 5
In the twenty-eighth year of the end of the world, October. Liu Lie led his troops northward to the old site of the Ross Region.
The safe zone has not been completely laissez-faire to the north over the years. More or less, some railways are built, some survivor camps are supported here, and some supplies are supported.
Chairman Mo is also in his sixties and is about to retire. Those old members of the Salvation Army have stayed in the safe area for years, and they have little intention of taking care of this area, except for occasionally standing up to buy people’s hearts.
Lan didn’t know what he was thinking all these years. Anyway, when Liu Lie invited him to join him, he agreed immediately, like most Beifeng Army veterans.
“Is there such a trick?” Wang Sheng sighed: “It seems that I can’t compete with him this year.”
Xu Xiaoxing looked into the distance: “Next year will be difficult, unless he makes a mistake. Next, you have two choices, either wait 16 years later, or… take the initiative to do something.”
Wang Sheng turned his head to look at Xu Xiaoxing: “Civil war? Then we will fall into the scene of being besieged by digital demigods.”
“I’m not that stupid.” Xu Xiaoxing shook his head: “As long as we don’t be completely defeated by them, it’s enough that the two parties take turns in power like the Northern Newland Region before the establishment of the People’s Federation.”
“The idea they have been governing these years is pioneering.”
“We can only do the opposite and make stability and consolidation the charter.”
In a short time, they will be at a disadvantage, but the pioneering period will end sooner or later. Therefore, the party established by Xu Xiaoxing must have a chance to come to power.
However, this is too long, and Wang Sheng doesn’t know if he can wait until then.
“Linzhen recently went to junior high school?” Wang Sheng suddenly raised such a question, which surprised Xu Xiaoxing.
Xu Linzhen is his and Guan Ping’s child, inheriting the advantages of the two, very smart and strong.
“In 16 or even 30 years, he will have a chance, right?” Wang Sheng left Xu Xiaoxing such a sentence before turning his head to leave.
Xu Xiaoxing shook his head, he did sometimes want to support his son in the future. But that character hasn’t been written yet, it’s just a vague idea. It’s not as outrageous as Wang Sheng said at all.
Well, he actually understood Wang Sheng’s thoughts, meaning that this guy is almost fifty years old, and he will be really old after more than ten years.
“The lifespan of the ninth level is expected to be more than a hundred years. What are you anxious about?” Xu Xiaoxing shook his head and sighed.
Wang Sheng was indeed in a hurry.
He was worried that he would be suppressed by Cao Andong and Liu Lie all his life. In the end, they can only pick up leftovers from the little things they have left to eat.
Moreover, after Liu Lie went down, they found another person to fight against them. With Cao Andong’s support, how could they win? Will the situation then be much different than it is now?
Even if he wins, the officials and the army are their people, so how can he be considered a real district chief?
He felt that his ambition would never be realized.
“Pharaoh, come, have a drink.” The old brother Zhang Hai came over to look for Wang Sheng. It was obvious that he was in a bad mood.
“Drink.” Wang Sheng was very straightforward. He doesn’t have anything to do if he doesn’t drink now, it’s better to be drunk with his brother. Over the years, his personal life has been almost completely abandoned in order to become the mayor. Not to mention traveling like I used to, I don’t even have time to play basketball with my brother.
You must know that Wang Sheng and Li Le used to be members of the school travel agency. But now Li Le travels every day and is very happy. Surrounded by beautiful girls who are very affectionate. Although he doesn’t hold much power, his own strength is enough to protect everything he cares about.
And Wang Sheng, who had forgotten his former hobby, married a woman he didn’t like very much for a political marriage—the daughter of Chemanfu, the former governor of Light City. Their relationship is really bad, and now they may not be able to say two words a week.
If Li Le chose to develop his power in the safe zone back then, he would move closer to the military and political direction. Now maybe he will get a higher position than Wang Sheng and have the opportunity to become the district mayor.
But what’s the point of that? When you were climbing all the way up, do you still remember why you were climbing up?
Back then in Linhai, Wang Sheng felt that he and Li Le were quite familiar. As a result, Li Le did not remember him.
Now, after so long, the relationship between the two has not changed much.
To travel is to go far, and staying where you are will not work.
It’s a pity that Wang Sheng stopped for too long and had forgotten how to move forward.
When you think you have gained a lot, you have missed even more. Unfortunately, not everyone understands what they really want.
After Zhang Hai finished drinking, he invited Wang Sheng and himself to go back to Su Lake to have a look.
Linhai was the place where they started, but it was flooded. Suhu is the place where they make a comeback. In the years when the end of the world began, they worked hard in Suhu for a long time. It was finally flooded again.
However, after the Dawning was defeated, Su Lake was rebuilt by the safe zone, and there were still many guys Wang Sheng knew there.
Two ninth-level, fast moving, half an hour to Su Lake with wine bottles.
Walking here, Wang Sheng didn’t think of his life in the West Street camp more than ten years ago. Instead, he remembered the days when he and Li Le and others came to Tu Hongshan before the end of the world.
The two drank for two hours at the foot of Tu Hong Mountain, beside Changming Lake.
It is not easy for a ninth-level powerhouse to get drunk. Even though the beer bottles around him were piled into hills, Wang Sheng was not really drunk.
Many people flashed through his mind. Some are acquaintances, some have only met once, and some have only read it in books. For example, Xiang Tianqi, his predecessor, who has now been labeled a villain.
“I don’t think it’s necessary for me to be as bad as it will last forever.” Wang Sheng threw a can into the water and sighed as he watched it float on the water.
So be it.
He gave up the goal of pursuing supreme power, but suddenly felt relieved. Sometimes those things are really just burdens.
Not only since when, have you changed from drinking Coke to drinking?
It probably means that you have been changed by the world, putting aside the liking and focusing on the interests.
Zhang Hai was quite happy: “That’s right.”
“Let’s go, there is still a lot of work to do. If you go back late, your salary will be deducted.” Wang Sheng smiled, and the whole person was much more cheerful.
There is nothing wrong with admitting defeat and admitting Liu Lie’s victory.
In the north, Liu Lie, who was talked about by Wang Sheng, didn’t think about this competitor at all at this time.
All he had in his eyes was the snow field.
And the survivors who struggled to support the snowy field south.
The security zone army has not been too slack in these years. After all, they are constantly expanding, and there are some wars in the capital region, Southeast Asia region, and Ross region.
This kind of local war is not too burdensome for the safe zone, but the training of the team is not much less.
More importantly, it has accumulated a large number of capable mid-level generals. Many of them participated in the war more than ten years ago, and now they have become regimental commanders and brigade commanders.
Coupled with the substantial growth in economic strength and population growth, it can be said that the comprehensive strength of the safe zone today is more than double that of 16 years ago if not counting demigods. Counting the demigods, it only increased by about one-third.
No way, demigods are too big in battle.
Liu Lie is not a demigod, but there are many powerhouses of the eighth and ninth levels around him, that is, many heroic spirits of Shu Han.
Five Tiger Generals, although there is no such title in serious history, these five are indeed the most senior generals under Liu Bei. Then there is the humanoid plug-in Zhuge Liang, which is not the same as Romance but is still powerful.
In Romance, Zhuge Liang’s magic tricks and calls for wind and rain are actually the level of the enhanced version of Jia Xu and the wizard. In history, Zhuge Liang was the top in internal affairs ability, and his military command ability was weaker than that in internal affairs.
Sima Yi, who was next door to Cao Cao, was also a famous general, but when he beat the others, he was a soldier and plundered like fire.
Sima Yi felt bitter in his heart, and later generations still slandered him for raising pirates and being self-respecting, but he said that he really couldn’t beat him.
He and Liu Bei are both at the peak level of the ninth level, and the latter relies on the blessing of the faction monarch. Under them, Guan Yu’s combat power is also stronger than other heroic spirits. It’s just that Zhuge Liang’s military level is at the back of the top group, not to mention Guan Yu.
These Shu Han are not the kind of genius generals who became famous at a young age, and their grasp of modern military is not fast. In the past ten years, I have learned well, but I have never seen a real war, and it is somewhat on paper.
Guan Yu stood beside him with a spear in his hand, and someone behind him held a large knife for him.
In history, he used a spear (presumably, when the historical records recorded that Yan Liang was stabbed under a horse, it should be a spear and a spear, something like the Qinglong Yanyue Knife was only available in the Song Dynasty). But now someone gave Guan Yu such a knife.
And the one who helped him with the knife at the back was obviously Guan Yu’s senior lieutenant, Zhou Cang.
In real history, Guan Yu is the most powerful in the Three Kingdoms. It is also the only case in the Three Kingdoms in which the head of an enemy general was beheaded by himself.
“Probably tomorrow we will be able to go to the old place of Light City.” Liu Lie looked at the map and said to the heroic spirits and Lan: “There is the largest human force in the area.”
Guan Yu nodded. Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei didn’t say anything. On the contrary, the blue looks hesitant to speak.
“They are more resistant to outsiders, especially members of the Salvation Army.” Liu Lie shrugged: “The reason…don’t explain too much.”
It is self-evident how the people who stayed here and were abandoned by the senior leaders of the Salvation Army would have grown up again with the help of the God of Death and the Restored.
Blue has been there several times over the years. He was the only one who came back from the Salvation Army’s color-coded powerhouses, as well as among the top six of the year.
Here, Black, Green, Gray, Doss, Victor and others have a good reputation, but when it comes to Chairman Mo and the former Governor Chemanf, everyone has to spit. The ruler who abandoned the people deserved the same fate.
Thinking of the prediction results of the world computer back then, Lan sighed.
Who on earth betrayed the Salvation Army?
ps today’s update. Ask for a ticket. However, it is estimated that there will not be too many people watching the show.
