Chapter 1052 Security Needs, the First Joint Appearance of the Western Suburbs Alliance
Chapter 1052 Security needs, the first joint attack of the Western Suburbs Alliance!
Finally, it is possible to have a deterrent weapon that makes the madman afraid. After Lv Kuan excitedly looked forward to the future, he left with full of longing.
Energy stone can induce explosion!
How fresh!
There is no weapon of the same specification that is cheaper than the cost of energy stone, or the latter is basically zero cost.
As long as the energy stone under the ground has not been mined, it is equivalent to the territory having almost unlimited super weapons.
And the energy stone battery used in the two troop carriers weighs less than one kilogram.
According to the current reserves
Good guy, I dare not think about it.
Especially thinking that there are still two cards that can restore resource reserves, and the system can also act on survival points to increase reserves.
Su Mo is looking forward to the research on energy stone to advance to the next stage as soon as possible.
At that time, the territory’s external offensive means will not be as poor as it is now, and it can consider whether it can beat some radiation beasts.
On the other side, the village chief Chen Shen also rushed over after hearing the news, with an expression of obvious worry on his face.
"Just now, there was another message from the bunker. Their guards suffered heavy casualties, and only a few people could stand and talk."
"The advance team met the owner there, and she requested reinforcements from our Western Suburbs Alliance to move in."
"And she also placed a very exaggerated arms order, and the profit is enough for us to trade with the two shelters in the Western Suburbs for a whole month."
Logically speaking, Chen Shen, the village chief, should be very happy to suddenly get such a super order.
But in fact, he was not happy at all.
The straight-line distance from the Pumpkin Bunker to the territory is 250 kilometers, and it is at least 300 kilometers including the detour.
The one-way time is now about four hours and fifty minutes, close to five hours.
Even if the route is familiar in the future, the time cannot be reduced by half, and three hours is the limit.
Even if the arms can be sold there, what the territory needs now is not just the supplies on the account.
How to spend these materials reasonably and enhance the strength of the entire territory is the most important consideration at present.
Su Mo stretched out his hand, patted Chen Shen on the shoulder and smiled.
"Don't be so nervous. Shouldn't we celebrate getting a big order? I heard that the doomsday madman has approached you several times, wanting you to purchase a large order for the village in the name of the village chief."
"You have never agreed, and you have issued a decree to limit the difficulty of obtaining gun licenses, resulting in a sharp drop in the efficiency of the weapons factory."
"Now he is happy, this pumpkin bunker order is enough for the weapons factory to work until next month, or even the next month."
He is happy?
He is happy, but I am not!
Chen Shen was slightly stunned, and his mind flashed the madman's face every time he licked the order, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Let every resident in the village have a gun in his hand, in a sense, it is not all good.
After the expansion of the current guard team, the number is enough to meet the daily patrol needs.
In addition, with the assistance of the Tianyuan Army, ordinary residents do not need to go to the front line to fight in the short term.
And the most critical point.
The metal aging disaster is coming.
This is why he repeatedly rejected the orders from the weapons factory. The stuff is not used now, and it will break if stored.
The guns that the residents bought with great difficulty may become a pile of scrap metal after a month or two when the disaster is over.
The economic bubble generated by this is extremely detrimental to the development of the territory and the village.
"I know, but if the owner there finds out that we sell a lot of broken things that will break down in a short time"
"Also, the distance between us is too far. Once the trading route is known by the mole guys in the southern suburbs or the Qinggang shelter, unnecessary accidents are likely to occur."
The natives don't know the information of the disaster.
Now they can't reveal that the metal aging disaster is coming.
Even if the owner of the bunker doesn't care about it, it will be bad if the residents find out that the weapons sold in the territory are garbage.
The 6,000 people there are the best labor force because of their slave status.
In the future plan, we have to conquer all the people in the bunker.
After listening to Chen Shen's concerns, Su Mo fell into deep thought.
The weapons sold in the past will soon become tattered, which he had not thought of before.
To be honest, although the aging speed of metal has indeed increased recently, it is not obvious in the player's territory.
The ones who suffered the most were the indigenous people.
According to the news shared by the alliance, the underground pipelines in the city have also collapsed recently due to the use of metal.
Because of the sparse population in the western suburbs, it can still be maintained.
But in the more densely populated southern suburbs and northern suburbs, the responsible personnel are already busy.
Touching his chin, Su Mo thought.
"Maybe they don't need weapons."
"I have to think about this matter carefully."
Even if everyone in the bunker without guards can have a pistol, what's the use? Do you still expect the slaves to go out to fight?
The owner of the bunker is not so naive as to think that ordinary people engaged in production can get buffs and instantly become combatants by picking up guns.
The reason why they need a large number of weapons is that they lack a sense of security.
If the "sense of security" can be satisfied, the transaction item does not necessarily have to be a real gun.
Maybe something else would work?
On January 8, Year 2 of the Wasteland Calendar, the third day after the Thousand Illusions Mist disappeared.
The collapsed concrete wall of the Pumpkin Bunker was repaired by the residents in just one night.
Although traces of patching can still be seen at the gap, the closed wall finally gave the residents inside a sense of security that they had not felt for a long time.
On the streets inside the bunker, figures in dark green uniforms walked in groups, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding residents.
They were new recruits who joined the guard team early this morning.
Due to the heavy casualties of the guard team yesterday, only one or two familiar faces could be seen in several teams of new recruits.
The automatic rifles inherited from their predecessors were clumsily held in their hands, and they patrolled with fear in their hearts.
"To be honest, it's really not a good idea for us to be guards."
Looking at the hopeful eyes of other residents around him, a new recruit couldn't help but complain.
If the bunker was still around the Holy City, the outside would be extremely safe, and it would only be responsible for internal conflicts.
Becoming a guard may be a lucrative job, with a higher status than ordinary slaves.
But now
Last night, the guard selection was drawn nine times, with the number decreasing gradually.
Those who did not win were jubilant and excited, as if the red lottery ticket they got determined their life and death.
Those who won the lottery had a dead look on their faces, and some even went home and wrote their last words.
No matter how the guard captain Nat comforted them and told them that the reinforcements from the Western Suburbs Alliance were coming, they only needed to help.
But it was too unrealistic to expect a group of slaves who usually only knew how to hold farm tools to cooperate in the battle.
Walking in front of the team, Santi, the only veteran of the patrol team, exhaled a breath of white air and shouted to the new recruits.
"Relax, you won't die."
It sounded like comforting and reassuring.
But from Santi's low tone, it can be heard that he obviously had no confidence.
The team moved forward and finally came to the guard department to join.
This is a very oriental architectural cluster, similar to an ancient parade ground, surrounded by walls and an open training ground inside.
Five blue-tiled houses were lined up beside the training ground, with some training equipment placed in the middle of the ground.
There were a total of eighty recruits selected. After all of them gathered, the scene was much more spectacular than yesterday.
Guard Captain Nat looked again and again, and only after the male gun brother and his group came out of the room did he take his eyes off the recruits.
"Dear messenger, this is the guard team we temporarily assembled, and they will be responsible for the bunker's next security task."
"If the alliance wants to station troops in, each of them can become a service staff for the garrison."
"Believe me, they are definitely good at service!"
Service?
Nat's sales pitch made the old Taoist laugh.
This is the first time I heard that the guard team is good at service. Isn't this funny?
The male gun brother next to him was much more serious, still with a stiff face:
"We haven't received any news about the garrison coming, and I'm afraid they have to guard the bunker first."
Nat nodded quickly.
"I know, but with their strength, if they encounter an enemy like yesterday..."
He was not forcing the emperor to abdicate, but stating the reality.
Although the guards in the training ground were lined up neatly, as if they had been trained frequently.
But if a fight really broke out, it would probably take less than a minute for them to run away and disappear.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and after making sure that the male gun brother did not look annoyed, he continued to speak.
"We are willing to pay generous remuneration to hire soldiers from the alliance. They will have food expenses, war rewards, pensions, and all kinds of benefits that we have heard of. We can provide them. This is what the master promised."
"In addition, if the number of garrisons exceeds one hundred, the master will also provide an additional scarce technology that is only circulated in the academy, which can help you better establish undisturbed communications. Yes, the messengers and the communication master of the alliance knew the specific situation yesterday, and she is willing to share this technology. And if the number of garrisons exceeds three hundred, the master will add two more items to this amount and share more precious technologies with you."
"Also, if an enemy comes to invade and attack, the garrison of the main alliance can win. Then every time it wins, the master will give a technology until the academy's legion arrives."
Supplies, population, or land, these can all be seized by force.
But only knowledge cannot.
In a sense, it is priceless.
For those who don't need it, even if they use a piece of toilet paper to buy it, they have to think about whether it is worth it.
But for those who need it, it is more precious than tons of gold.
Katarina knew that with the strength of the alliance, everything here might have been regarded as their own in advance.
Then apart from that, what else could attract these people?
I am afraid that only the inventory in her head and some technical information collected in the academy years ago are left.
"I will pass on the reward to the manager, but the decision is still not in my hands."
After a pause, the male gun brother continued.
"But you can rest assured that we have already sent the general situation back to the territory yesterday, and we will not leave for the time being. If there are any more invaders coming, we will help you defend."
"In addition"
Before he finished speaking, the communicator hanging on Nat's waist suddenly rang.
It is the communication of the guard on duty at the entrance of the village.
He picked up nervously subconsciously, thinking that another enemy was coming to invade.
But after getting through, the voice coming from the other side surprised him so much that he almost jumped from the ground.
"Messenger, it's your people who are here!"
"There are so many people!"
In the orchard in front of the pumpkin bunker.
The bright yellow isolation belt went around for nearly two kilometers, well preserving the internal explosion scene.
In the open space in front of the isolation zone, a long queue of motorcades was approaching.
The guard standing on the wall made a rough count and found that there were no less than twenty vehicles, large and small, in this long convoy.
What's even more exaggerated is that at the rear of the convoy, there are two tanks that seem to give people a sense of security.
The long and narrow barrel, and the caliber thick enough to fit an adult's head, leave no one doubting its power.
"Is this the strength of the alliance?"
The veterans who were still injured breathed a long sigh of relief, and their trembling legs seemed to be filled with new strength.
I have to say that joining the Western Suburbs League was the right decision.
If yesterday's invaders still dared to come with armored vehicles, then these two tanks would definitely kill them. They know what the consequences are and what the consequences are.
anger!
Finally, the first car of the convoy stopped about fifty meters in front of the city wall.
Before the car behind had stopped, the rear tailgate of the third troop carrier flipped open.
Lu Kuan, wearing a full-coverage protective suit, hurried down, identified the direction below, and rushed towards the isolated center of the explosion.
"Go and send a small team of people to protect Professor Lu."
"yes!"
Su Deben's voice sounded from behind, and a small group of fully armed Tianyuan Army soldiers quickly got out of the car and followed Lu Kuan and disappeared into the orchard.
The other vehicles stopped and people started to come out one after another.
There are Tianyuan Army soldiers wearing blue-green uniforms, Pingtan Army soldiers wearing red and black uniforms, and a few inconspicuous Jucheng Army soldiers wearing khaki.
When it comes to supporting allies, Sumo has no intention of taking everything into his own hands.
After Yehu and Aldrich heard about it, they also expressed that this ally was very important, and sent support without saying a word.
Of course, no one can guess what the two of them were thinking.
But if the three families can gather together to send troops, the formation looks really impressive.
"Is this the Pumpkin Kefu Bunker? It looks really grand!"
Wang Qian, the captain in charge of the Pingtan Army, came from behind.
Still wearing the familiar denim clothes and the cheerful and cynical smile.
Since Liu Lu became a celebrity in Pingtan Shelter, he also successfully removed the "advice" on his head because of his relatives.
Now, Wang Qian is the leader of the B-9 floor and the standing patrol leader of the Pingtan Army.
The mission of this trip just fell on his head.
