Chapter 77 Chapter 2.34 Peaceful settlement, convincing people with reason

When Zeng Lin got off the station, he looked curiously at this city without walls, which was fully open.

The city isn't super big, but there are plenty of equally open town spots to see along the way.This is a city without defense, a city that does not need defense.

After getting off the station, Zeng Lin found an armored chariot nearby. On the other side of the train track, there was an armored train with a welded turret.The steel weapons that the city inadvertently displayed made Zeng Lin understand that he should not take the initiative to provoke here.

……

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten." "Everyone you meet with steel in your hand is a reasonable person."

Zeng Lin did not show any ill will, and Wei Keng also received him warmly. ——Wei Keng reported to the organization: Ji'an City is currently bringing these mechanical beasts, which shows that they still have the sincerity of communication.

In 140, on Yuanhua's giant ship, the fluorescent lamps on the ship were basically broken, but now the new arc lamps are a little dazzling.

Huang Yuhua, a hot-tempered person, asked Wei Keng, "Could it be that you have a way to let him sell those mechanical-biological combinations?"

Wei Keng explained patiently: "It's the heart of others, how can it be sold. Unilateralism is not acceptable."

Sun Xiangyang asked with some incomprehension: "Then what do you mean..."

Wei Keng: "His war machine, the parts on it, we can process them, and we can help them."

Old Li asked: "Why do you want to help them?!" At this time, his tone was a little rushed.

Wei Keng: "The gang has conditions. We help him maintain the biological combat machinery, and he should also cooperate with our reform of the old human settlements."

"Isn't it possible to beat him down?" said the urn in an angry voice who did not know who was in the corner of the venue.

Wei Keng took a deep breath: "It can be shot down, and after it is shot down, the external cleaning may be more thorough. But! What about our interior?
Comrades, we want to change the world, not bandits who come to grab territory.Our principle is to do everything possible to solve the problem peacefully, but never give up force on the bottom line!And if we tend to use force when solving problems, our original intentions will begin to be corrected step by step. "

Huang Yuhua: "I think you are procrastinating, Comrade Wei Keng."

Wei Keng sighed and said: "Respect your opinions, so everyone makes a list, and I will talk to him about the problems that you think can't be delayed! Indeed, the problem can't be delayed. If it can't be solved within the time limit, then call ."

……

After the meeting, the crew sent to find the relevant Wei Keng of his department for further discussion.

Captain Sun Xiangyang also had a secret conversation with Wei Keng: "Comrade Wei Keng, it's hard for you. The young people below are too aggressive."

Wei Keng looked at the map of the whole country hanging on the captain's room: "It's nothing, it's work, it's okay to accept the opinions of comrades."

Sun Xiangyang: "Actually, everyone knows that you are the most determined proletarian. It's not that they doubt you, it's just that everyone wants to compete."

Wei Keng paused, shook his head and said: "No one is the most determined, external things can easily change a person. If you want to maintain an attitude towards society, you can't be separated from the masses. It is right to be suspicious of me, even if Yes, I often doubt whether my intentions are unknowingly mixed with selfishness.
I've only seen it a little more. Now some comrades put in a lot of hard work, so they want a fast pace, but what about some comrades?Due to work reasons, he has been sticking to his post for a long time, and his understanding of the overall situation is not yet clear.And we need to coordinate the cognition of all parties. "

……

Pandora May 141, 6.

The Wei Kengs met with Zeng Lin, and at Wei Keng's request, Zeng Lin watched his ability to modify the mechanical beast.The relevant mechanical sketches were constructed by Wei Keng overnight.

For Zeng Lin's mechanical beast, Wei Keng proposed some new plug-ins.Such inserts contain high-sugar, high-fat energy blocks, mounted on both ribs.And add a generator to make the structure of the mechanical device on the muscle easier to pop up, as for the bazooka device and bullets are also ready for him.

After completing these renovations, Zeng Lin thought it was very interesting, so he quickly arrived at the west line, which is the area east of Zhanjiang, by train from his residence.

Regarding Zhanjiang, Mr. Wei Keng has been thinking about this place all the time. Before the Great Disruption, it was a large industrial area with a steel output of more than [-] million tons, and the special steel in it was quite good.But the biomes here are crafty.

Every time Wei Keng approached, the general node creature of the community immediately crossed the Qiongzhou Strait and went directly to Hainan Island, and it would come back after Master Wei's combat troops left.Unless Master Wei Keng sent a team of 1000 people to station in Zhanjiang for a long time.And this is impossible.

Of course, there is another main reason for staying here, which is to leave a whetstone for the new speaker team in the Zhujing area after the popularization of spiritual language.

……

Zeng Lin soon discovered the large creatures here after entering the jungle.

The 40-meter-long super giant snake came out from behind the waterfall with a lot of moss and barnacles on it. The three mechanical war wolves belonging to Zeng Lin were quickly suppressed by fire because they were loaded with metal bullet chains. Blow up this whole head.This creature can only grow countless tiny tentacles on its head to replace the destroyed head for perception.

However, the black-painted metal wolf at the rear is aimed at the tentacle wound on the head. This black metal wolf does not have heavy firepower, but the equipped electric cold weapon is no less destructive than bullets in close combat. .

After the three electric drills drilled into the wound, the spiral blade popped out, and the inside of it was twisted to a pulp.Because the diesel fuel consumed by the gasoline engine is not much less than the energy of the bullet gunpowder burning and projecting, the lethality is also modern industrial grade.

Regarding the design of this drill, Wei Keng strongly recommends Zeng Lin to add it, which is the nemesis of dry large animals.

After the drill bit shattered the snake's body by seven or eight meters, the snake lost most of its vitality.All that's left is to stuff the bomb into it and blow it up.The killing resulted in a bloody smell in the air, which irritated the beasts of the jungle.

10 month 4 number.

After the bullets and diesel were finished, Zeng Lin and Wei Keng's team packed [-] tons of steel and immediately withdrew from the area.

6号下午5:00到7：00。

During the evacuation, the only threat encountered was the attack of three waves of flying scorpions and bat swarms.The mechanical war beasts carrying oil tanks on the periphery sprayed in a scattered pattern, forming a raging wall of fire within 20 seconds to stop these creatures from chasing soldiers.

At 8:33 pm,
While sleeping in the open air, I encountered a surprise attack from the flying winged creatures that swooped down from the sky.But the kangaroo-like war beast in charge of vigilance fought back.After the flying monster fell, these mechanical kangaroos sprayed smoke bombs immediately, and the flying wing creature fell off in the smoke without waiting for its fracture to repair.The mechanical beast in charge of guarding.A spike directly penetrated the head of the four-winged flying beast.

On the 8th, all personnel and materials returned to the place of residence by train.Wei Keng and Zeng Lin began to distribute the harvest of this adventure.

……

At the railway station, Wei Keng said, "Thirty-seven will be divided, I will give you three and seven." Under the distribution of interests that does not involve principles, there are always not many contradictions.

Zeng Lin looked at Wei Keng in front of him, then looked at the few Wei Keng who were replacing the weapons for the mechanical beasts, took a deep breath and said, "What are the conditions?"

Wei Keng looked at Zeng Lin: "I hope you can obey the law."

Zeng Lin stared at Wei Keng and suddenly smiled, he said slowly: "The law, no one has obeyed it for a long time in this era."

Wei Keng: "I have many individuals. When dealing with you, there are often only a few. But I want to talk about each of them on an equal footing with you."

Zeng Lin: "What about other than you?" - He was obviously referring to the lower class people who were originally the city-state.The problem gradually became serious.

Wei Keng buckled his nose and asked, "So, except for you?" Wei Keng raised his head and looked in the direction of Ji'an City.Zeng Lin also has dependents, such as his father and cousin.Wei Keng made the topic more serious.

After half a sound, it seems that I can't bear the price behind the silence,
Zeng Lin nodded and said, "I can accept most of what you said, but in Ji'an City, in a private fortress, I have absolute power."

Wei Keng shook his head: "You can freely identify the intruder and shoot after three warnings are invalid. You can expel anyone, but you can't arbitrarily deprive others of their lives or detain others. In our case, there is nothing" The wind can enter the rain and the king can't enter." Wei Keng pointed to the sky: "The sky is bright and bright, no one can cover the sky with only one hand."

Zeng Lin remained silent.

Wei Keng chased in again: "As long as it's reasonable, I won't break the wall against you in the future."

At the last sentence, Wei Keng seemed to feel threatened by the mechanical beast who was listening to Zeng Lin, and bared his teeth at Wei Keng.

The guards glared at these beasts, and then took a step forward: "Large combat beasts must have full safety measures on public roads."

Zeng Lin: "You have too many conditions, let me think about it."

Wei Keng didn't care about it at this time, and Xinxin showed his cards: "Since we said it today, we can't delay it for too long. I am now representing the 25 people in the entire New Pearl River. To tell you the truth, the war is already at the top of our party." The plan is in place. And I said these words today, just to set an example of a peaceful solution for you (leaving a life-saving door)."

...

In November, Wei Keng took Zeng Lin to visit a steel factory and a chemical factory. Of course, there was no mechanical beast to accompany him at this time.

When the red metal flows out from the groove reserved by the slag, it flows into the forging groove to be shaped, and then is mechanically hoisted and forged to become a standard metal object, which becomes a part of the railway, construction steel pipe, and ship manufacturing system. At that time, Zeng Lin completely let go of his last obsession.

Such productivity is the production of human cities before the Great Destruction, as recorded in his family books.If you want to face such a force head-on, you will end up hitting a stone with an egg, and you will be overwhelmed.

In the end, Zeng Lin signed the regulations on the table on behalf of Ji'an City and Sun Xiangyang, the representative of the Southern Commander Force.The two sides reached a memorandum whereby the upper echelons of Ji'an City gave up their privileges, while the Pearl River region also respected its old economic accumulation.

Regarding home raids and land redistribution, Yuanhua's crew members did not pursue it aggressively.Because in the process of trade, these old forces have completely lost their capital.The existing industries were all second- and third-tier county towns in the civilized era. Now, with the migration of a large number of people, these areas in Ji'an City will soon become empty nests.

Since then, there have been cases of peaceful settlement in Cantonese city-states, and this case can be extended to other old city-states as a reference.Of course, there will be no situation where the Pearl River region will continue to passively bargain.The case would be sent to the upper echelons of the other city-states, ordered to respond within a time limit.

And this does not need Huang Yuhua these passionate members to remind.Wei Keng is already mobilizing the war machine.

Wei Keng's understanding of history: the replacement of old forces by new forces, even if the conditions are good, most of them are tacitly agreed, but there must still be a few strong self-contained nail households.Only by killing them can complete change be achieved, and if they are defeated, the other old forces will not give in.

……

When Zeng Lin returned home with the negotiating documents, he received a cold response from Zeng Longmu. He yelled at his son for being so unwilling to fight.

Zeng Lin was also sure that his father was old. He had been in the cement fortress of Ji'an City all the year round.

Zeng Longmu's stubbornness will not affect the final attitude of the upper levels of Ji'an City.

On November 11, the commander-in-chief army began to attack the city-state in the north, Shaoguang City, which had resisted liberation.

Shaoguang City seems to feel that it is in the farthest north, separated from the Pearl River area by a large urban area, especially Ji'an City.

However, they were wrong. The logistics system of the entire Pearl River has been greatly improved in the past few years. The packaged food, ammunition, and various residential camp steel pipes have all been planned and packed according to standard freight boxes. Yes, and establish multiple transfer stations in the middle for transshipment.The entire shipment looks complicated at first glance, but it's all clear on the form.The overall planning of mathematics allows the output of the maximum effect of the capacity.

Wei Keng's logistical preparations were almost superfluous, which surprised the leaders of the Destiny Plane: "This kid, why does it look more and more like the American style." If it wasn't for Wei Keng's production It was still hard and simple, so I was very suspicious of Wei Keng's composition.

Arrived near Shaoguang City on the 12th, with four Ares tanks as the forerunner, with Wei Keng's self-made armored vehicles to attack all the levels.

The crawler tank from the Destiny Plane encountered the earth wall obstacles on the road and crushed it without any resistance.The entire Shaoguang City became an isolated city in one day.

12:6 pm on the 23th.

At this moment, the mayor of the city-state of Shaoguang City has not given up. He has set up machine guns and artillery on the city wall, and the mechanical war beasts are also patrolling the wall, trying to rely on the solid city wall to stick to it.And he uttered wild words claiming to let Wei Keng, the monster, bleed into a river under the impregnable city walls.

This kind of behavior of refusing the reunification by force is ridiculous. The military generation difference between the two sides has opened a huge gap, and the unified army does not pay any attention to the people here.

A five-ton mortar with a caliber of 200mm was directly deployed to a high ground at an altitude of 13 meters on the front line.After completing the fixing of the artillery all morning on the [-]th, the winch of the diesel engine was started to load the [-] kg warhead into the raised muzzle.

Everyone hides in the anti-shock area on the side according to the regulations and stands by, and the artillery chief pulls the wire to set it on fire.

With the roar of the fire, the Tongfan Army closed his hands and ears across the distance, still his head was shaking, and the people in Shaoguang City heard the screeching of the falling bullet.

"Throw~~~~" The warhead fell on the city wall, followed by an unbearable sound and light effect on the city wall, and the 15-meter-high watchtower disappeared instantly.A large number of bricks flew out, covering the surviving humans within a few hundred meters with dust and blood.

Immediately after the first shot was over, the barrel was cooled with a mop dipped in water. Five minutes later, the second round of shells was loaded, this time to blow up the city gate.This magnificent metal gate was then reduced to shattered steel fragments.

Then according to the regulations of the gun, it is possible to launch a third warhead.Then there is cooling.Wait for the heat in the gun barrel to dissipate.

After the three rounds of cannonballs ended, there was a huge gap in the castle, and some of the mechanical beasts that didn't have time to escape also turned into wreckage mixed in the bricks and tiles with the shock wave.

During this cool-down period, while Wei Keng mobilized his tank troops to prevent the enemy from raiding the artillery positions, he was also thinking about the remaining 24 shells in his hand and which important targets to hit.

However, Shaoguang City surrendered at this time, and the group took advantage of the interval of artillery and ran out holding a white flag.

In fact, Wei Keng's first shot knocked out their morale.If the commander-in-chief at that time persuaded the army to surrender, it would have been fine.

However, Wei Keng couldn't believe that one shot could convince people with reason.I feel that the clamor from the other side is so ruthless, it will not be so pustular, maybe it should be next to two rounds, meaning.

As a result, the latter two shells did not give Shaoguang City a chance to organize a surrender, and there was no time to find the sheets for the white flag.
