Rise of the Wasteland

Chapter 1569: Surprise

North America, Chicago.

A large number of refugees are queuing up and slowly moving among the ruins of the city. People are dressed in tatters and their faces are expressionless. Occasionally there was commotion and quarrel, and the guards with sticks would immediately step forward to drag the troublemakers out and beat them up.

The bodies of the refugees all looked poor, all of them were sallow and emaciated, numb and sluggish. Holding various containers in their hands, they waited to go to the relief point in front of the line to collect food.

At the front of the line, Rachel, wearing a plain gray dress, was receiving thanks from the refugees. Many people shed tears of gratitude after taking a sip of the hot wheat porridge, and they threw themselves down in front of Rachel and howled.

Standing beside Rachel was a tall and strong man, with one hand on his hips, he pressed a revolver on his waist and said, "Mrs. Lawrence, you pay too much attention to these refugees.

No matter how good the food is given to them, they will not really appreciate it. Can you believe that many of them are actually calling you names? These are bastards, rubbish, useless crap, disgusting maggots that deserve hell.

We do everything we can to create jobs for them, but these people would rather wander, steal, cheat, and rob than work. They don't deserve sympathy at all, and I wish I could kill them all. "

The burly man's words were ruthless and indifferent, which sounded very infuriating, but Rachel who was standing by could not refute. Because the current social situation in North America is very tense and the situation is too complicated.

Chicago is the domain of the Knights of the Light in the Brotherhood of Steel. This place used to be an important city of industry, finance, and technology, with a dense population and complete infrastructure, making it a good place to make a fortune. But now more than two years after the cataclysm, the place is still dilapidated and decaying.

The United States used to be proud of its multiculturalism and felt that it was a melting pot of nations. Immigrants from all over the world could find their own living space when they came to the United States. But at the moment of testing human nature like the cataclysm, the situation is completely wrong.

The strong man standing behind Rachel was a senior officer of the Knights of the Holy Light. The Brotherhood of Steel ruled with white people, so it was natural that they would take care of people with the same skin color.

In the eyes of the Chinese, white Americans are all about the same. But the actual whites are divided into multiple ethnic groups, such as Irish, German, Italian, and even more of British and French ancestry.

If you add mixed races and different religions, the fun will be even greater. You must know that there are several denominations for those who just believe in Christ, and there is also a maverick branch such as Judaism. This situation is much more complicated than the Aurora Legion under Zhou Qingfeng's rule.

White people want to drive people of color to work in factories,

But people of color feel that sweatshops are too hard and tiring. Similar contradictions permeate every corner of society, which is also mixed with the plundering and vendetta of various resources, and the more time goes by, the more chaotic it becomes.

New York controlled by David Lawrence learned from Zhou Qingfeng's strategy from the very beginning, restoring production as much as possible while purifying the social structure, which can reduce the cost of governance. Simply kill or drive out the uncontrollable population.

This is the secret of Lord Lawrence's success as the leader of the Brotherhood of Steel. However, the other four branches of the Brotherhood of Steel do not have such a clear governing philosophy. For example, the Mormon Church directly wants to unify all thoughts through preaching.

This is also a factor that allows the Mormon Church to penetrate the entire territory of the Brotherhood of Steel. All rulers are troubled by religious issues-in the eyes of Americans, people must always believe in one religion.

Of course, in Zhou Qingfeng's view, those who believe in religion are idiots, it's better to believe in me, or die if you don't.

The above are the troubles that Rachel is facing. Her current main job is to relieve the bottom of society on the entire site of the Brotherhood of Steel. Because of her utterly unconditional assistance, other branches of the Brotherhood welcomed her, even proclaiming her as a benevolent presence like the Madonna.

Idols are needed in the last days, and a kind person can easily be deified. In a chaotic world, people are easily moved by a woman who simply does good things.

In fact, Rachel was not happy with her growing fame, on the contrary, the more she helped, the more she felt chilled. In her eyes, the leader of any power in North America is a tyrant, including her husband and Zhou Qingfeng.

"Mrs. Lawrence, I think you can go. I admire your character very much, but a noble person like you shouldn't be with these rubbish." The burly man on the side urged Rachel to leave, in his opinion to help those The poor ghost is completely superfluous.

Looking at the long line of refugees, Rachel could only let out a long sigh. She lifted the hem of her long skirt and slowly left the relief point. As she walked, she thought: What would that bastard Victor do in this situation?

Drop a nuke and kill all useless people.

Rachel smiled bitterly, knowing that the devil in the south would definitely do such a thing.

Just as he was leaving the room, an orderly rushed over to report in a low voice to the burly officer beside Rachel. The officer was shocked when he heard the words, and exclaimed in his mouth, as if he heard something extremely terrible.

"What happened?" Rachel could not help asking when she faintly heard the words 'Aurora Legion' and 'Mexico'.

The burly officer did not hide the big news he had just heard. He said in a deep voice: "The Diego regime in Mexico suddenly announced its surrender to the Aurora Legion. The zombie president ordered all the troops under him to lay down their weapons and obey the orders of the Legion."

What..., the Diego regime surrendered to the Aurora Legion? Anyone who hears this news will say something in their hearts - this is really a **** dog!

A local powerful force with an area of ​​nearly 2 million square kilometers and a ruling population of 30 million actually surrendered to a small force that just controlled an island country of about 100,000 square kilometers with a population of just over one million?

Well, the Aurora Legion cannot be regarded as a "small force", and everyone in North America feels that the Diego regime is expected to be beaten badly by the Aurora Legion. But now only a few days after the official start of the war, the damn side has surrendered, and it still looks like the bigger side surrendered.

This news sounded absurd, and even Rachel cursed: "Damn it, Victor took advantage of it this time."

The burly officer on the side was also scolding. He scolded the president of the Diego regime for not resisting, and scolded Victor Hugo for his shit luck. fear.

"We in North America have a total population of just over 60 million, and the Brotherhood of Steel only accounts for half of them. But now that the Aurora Legion has swallowed Mexico, they will be on an equal footing with us."

The officer of the Holy Light Knights kept talking about the population of 30 million people, and at the end he added a rejoicing sentence, "Fortunately, Mexico is not strong, otherwise we would be in big trouble."

Haha... Rachel can only despise this kind of luck. Mexico is not strong, but the Aurora Legion is very strong, Victor Hugo, this little bastard is very strong. She could still think that if her husband heard the news, he would be frightened awake from a dream.

What does it mean to be like a tiger with wings added, this is it!

No one expected that the Diego regime would collapse so quickly, it was simply giving away the territory to the opponent for nothing.

The previous Aurora Legion only had a population of about one million, and North America was already a mess. If there is another surge in territory and population....

Rachel murmured, "God, I don't dare to think about it anymore. This is too scary! Victor, the little bastard, is really going to be on the big stage in North America."
