The team moved to this new battlefield, which was exactly where the unlucky executive director was killed a few days ago.
The unlucky director who was killed was Wang Haochen from the Zhongzhou Region. He was considered a very resourceful and well-backed person in the Zhongzhou Region. He was also the leader of the team that supported the West Frontier Region this time.
There are definitely no shortage of elite soldiers and generals.
But such an executive director with a great background has inexplicably ended up in this small county town in the sunshine era.
This small county town called Liangcheng is much less prosperous than Gengyun City, not to mention Gengxing City. In the Sunshine Era, the permanent population did not exceed 300,000.
Now that we have entered a strange era, the number of survivors in Liangcheng is probably only fifty or sixty thousand.
Such a stronghold itself cannot indeed provide high-level defense. Compared with Yuncheng, there is still a huge gap in strength.
Wang Haochen had just arrived, so he must have taken it a little lightly. He must have been negligent in terms of personal security, and that was why the strange tree took advantage of it.
It is impossible to say that such a large Zhongzhou region lacks powerful awakened people. No matter how bad Wang Haochen is, there will always be a group of capable people under his command.
Otherwise, why can he lead the team? Why can he be promoted to the joint command team and become an executive director.
You know, there are only six executive directors in total, and every position is in short supply.
Joining the joint command team may not see many benefits in the short term, but in the long run, it is definitely a very conspicuous resume.
Therefore, entering may not bring immediate short-term benefits, but if you don't enter, you will be like Director Yang Xiangchun, the leader of the Central and South Region, who will be embarrassed and just play big.
But Wang Haochen never thought until his death that he would lose his life in this small county town.
Moreover, the support team he led was also severely injured and more than half were destroyed. It can almost be said that the team was completely disabled.
And Liangcheng was completely destroyed.
Therefore, the support brigade and direct brigade led by Han Jingjing were naturally unable to move directly to Liangcheng. Instead, they settled in a town thirty kilometers away from Liangcheng.
This township is still in the hands of the human camp, and it is also the closest human stronghold in this direction to the Weird Tree control area.
If there wasn't a river across this stronghold from the direction of Liangcheng, I'm afraid even this stronghold would have fallen long ago.
Facing the expansion of the strange tree, a river actually means a buffer zone is separated, giving humans a lot of buffer space.
The river is not very wide, and the distance between the two banks is only more than a hundred meters.
But these more than 100 meters have become a life-saving zone for the human camp, providing the human camp with a great sense of security.
This river cannot be underestimated. For humans in a defensive posture, a river means a natural trench.
Humans only need to hold on to the bridge over the river.
The small town where the team stayed was called Beitan Town. It was named because it was a market town that grew up on a rare piece of flat land on the north side of the river.
Beitan Town was originally a small town with tens of thousands of people, but now there are not many indigenous survivors in the town.
However, there are quite a few survivors who escaped from Liangcheng and are stranded in Beitan Town.
It's not that these survivors don't want to go to a larger survivor base, but that their resources and abilities are not enough to make a long journey.
We can only live in Beitan Town nearby.
As for Beitan Town, there are still military and official teams stationed there. Although they are all disabled organizations, they still have official names after all.
An official name always gives people some sense of security.
As a result, the population living in Beitan Town today is no less than in the Sunshine Era. It's just that most of the survivors escaped from the direction of Liangcheng.
Of course, there are still two to three hundred people in the military's official remaining ranks. Nowadays, they are all commanded by a surviving Liangcheng official.
This official is a young man from Liangcheng. He is also the main combatant responsible for the safety of Liangcheng in the strange era. He is quite prestigious among these combatants.
Otherwise, with the collapse of Liang City, he would not be able to escape intact.
This official's surname is Fang, and his last name is Zhi.
This person had obviously received the news from the superiors a long time ago, and knew that after the last defeat of the Liangcheng stronghold, a new executive director would be sent to take charge of the overall situation.
And the team that came to take charge of the overall situation this time was no joke. They were the same people who led Yuncheng out of crisis.
What happened in Yuncheng has long been publicized as a typical example by the Western Frontier Region, and all strongholds have been widely publicized.
Although Beitan Town is only a small stronghold, it is the frontline stronghold in the direction of Liangcheng. It is the first stronghold to bear the brunt and is not much less important than Yuncheng.
Fang Zhi led the defeated army of two to three hundred people. Even with the help of survivors and awakened civilians, they were actually just trying to support themselves.
Not to mention anything else, just guarding the bridge consumed nearly one-third of his manpower.
Not to mention that around Beitan Town, agents and tree demons of the strange tree are also lurking, who may launch a fatal blow to Beitan Town at any time.
These days, Fang Zhi has been thinking very hard. It can be said that he has exhausted all his efforts and is exhausted mentally and physically.
Just like the people in the enemy-occupied areas looked forward to Master Wang, Fang Zhi was really looking forward to it, and finally welcomed the support brigade and the direct brigade.
However, when Fang Zhi shook hands with Han Jingjing enthusiastically and was about to shake her passionately, Han Jingjing pulled away with a gentle shake.
He said calmly: "Director Fang, Director Jiang Yue is not here for the time being for some reason, so I will temporarily take photos of the work of the support team. I see that you are not people who believe in empty talk, so we will skip those empty politenesses. Let's get straight to the point.
.We need the latest information about Liangcheng, including the situation in this entire area, the more detailed the better."
Han Jingjing has been influenced by Jiang Yue's style of doing things these days, and has been affected by it unknowingly.
She always wondered what Jiang Yue would do if he were here.
It can be said that every move she makes now is actually taking on Jiang Yue's identity and acting according to Jiang Yue's ideas.
This is not to say that Han Jingjing blindly worships or deliberately imitates.
She just hopes that when Jiang Yue comes back to take over the work, everything will go more smoothly without any running-in process and the efficiency will be greatly improved.
Fang Zhi, a man who fought on the front lines and spent his whole life in battles, is actually very tired of that kind of false politeness. It's just that he is forced by the situation and wants to ask for help from others.
Seeing Han Jingjing say this, he was naturally happy to accept it.
"Okay, this is indeed an elite team that can help Yuncheng get out of crisis. It is indeed an elite division. Deputy Han, please. We have already arranged the location. It is the original official office building of Beitan Town, but the township office and venue
It’s simple, so please don’t dislike it. However, although the office space is not big, it is fortunately well-equipped with all the daily facilities. The large stove in the canteen can also be operated at any time to ensure that your daily life is not affected as much as possible. In terms of supplies..."
Liang City has fallen, and the official structure of Liang City has been almost shattered. Now when it comes to supplies, they don't even know who to contact.
They can only wait for their superiors to show mercy and take the initiative to provide them with supplies.
Precisely because there is no fixed and timely supply, the lives of these people in Beitan Town are very tight, and it looks really bleak.
What made Han Jingjing even more speechless was that when she arrived at the station, she saw that the welcome work meal was also extremely shabby, and could hardly compare with the food treatment of beggars in the Sunshine Era.
This made Han Jingjing even more aware of how difficult it was to be a stronghold in Beitan Town.
Seeing Fang Zhi's ashamed look, Han Jingjing said with relief: "Director Fang, under such difficult conditions, you can still hold on to your position, which is awe-inspiring. You don't have to worry about the supply of supplies, Yuncheng guarantees supply for a period of time
time, and the joint command team has also promised that supplies of materials and equipment will be sent later."
Fang Zhi's eyes were red. This burly man felt so sad after hearing Han Jingjing's words that he almost couldn't help but shed tears.
The pain of losing his home, the despair and anxiety of not seeing the future clearly, and the anxiety and worry after the defeat, including the grievances he suffered during this period, have been weighing on Fang Zhi's heart, making him feel even more depressed.
Han Jingjing's words touched Fang Zhi's emotional point, causing him to feel a sore nose and almost lose control.
Materials, equipment, supplies...
These days, Fang Zhi really longs for these things.
It's a pity that in the small stronghold of Beitan Town, they retreated here with the shame of losing their troops and losing their land. How could they have the nerve to ask their superiors for supplies and materials?
The Liangcheng-level organization has been destroyed. For Beitan Town-level strongholds, asking superiors for supplies is a leapfrog. There is no transfer station in the middle, making communication very difficult.
This has also made life in Beitan Town a lot more difficult.
The conditions are a little more difficult, but work still has to be done and errands still have to be run.
After a grueling banquet, everyone got to work in a tacit understanding.
Fang Zhi took several important personnel of the team and personally reported the situation of this stronghold to the support team.
The defense of Beitan Town does not have many tricks. Apart from the defense of the town itself, the key point is the bridge.
The bridge is actually connected to the town. After crossing the bridge, it actually belongs to the core area of Beitan Town. It is only a few hundred meters away from the office where Han Jingjing and the others are stationed.
Even if there is a war on the bridge right now, Han Jingjing and the others can provide support at any time.
One advantage of being a small town is that it is relatively easy to defend, and some important strongholds can communicate with each other, making it easier to support each other.
But the shortcomings are also obvious. The town itself was built on this beach. It is mostly flat land and there is no barrier to rely on. From a military perspective, there is no danger to defend.
There is no strategic depth to speak of.
Once a fight breaks out, it's a fight.
After listening to Fang Zhi's report and analysis of the situation, the core members of the support brigade and the direct brigade were summoned by Han Jingjing.
As is the old rule, everyone brainstorms and offers suggestions.
Tong Feifei was glanced at by Han Jingjing and understood. He knew that Han Jingjing wanted him as a think tank to speak and share his opinions.
Tong Di has long been accustomed to this kind of scene and has been thinking about it.
Therefore, he did not panic and said calmly: "Director Fang and the others are able to hold on to this undefeable stronghold in Xintan Town until now. I personally find it very difficult."
First, affirm the persistence of Fang Zhi and others, and eliminate the psychological barriers between the other parties, so that both parties can complete the running-in faster and better.
"According to intelligence, this area of Liangcheng is the spiritual vein of another main root of the Weird Tree. Judging from the small stronghold of Beitan Town, I feel that it is difficult to support a large rear to launch a counterattack against the Weird Tree.
Regardless of the size or potential of this rear area, Beitan Town cannot afford this responsibility."
The place is too small.
It is possible to do a dojo in a snail shell, but it is almost impossible to make a big movement.
If you want to win, Beitan Town is far from enough.
"Director Fang also mentioned before that Liangcheng fell just a few days ago. Although the Weird Tree has occupied Liangcheng, it has not completely digested Liangcheng. There are still a large number of survivors in Liangcheng who have not evacuated in time. There are even survivors in recent days.
Someone sent a signal for help from across the river."
"I think we should analyze this matter from both sides. Looking from the front, maybe we really haven't had time to digest this place in Liangcheng. There are still a large number of survivors alive and have not fallen, but they can't escape. But from the other side,
Could it be the conspiracy of the Weird Tree? In fact, these survivors have fallen and become tree demons concocted by the Weird Tree? The help signal is just a smoke bomb they released. In fact, they want to lure the humans here to rescue them, and then come back.
Do you want me to enter the jar?"
Looking at the problem dialectically from both the pros and cons will undoubtedly lead to a more comprehensive understanding.
Fang Zhi looked at the young Tong Di and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
This group of elites in Star City, especially the core staff, are simply too young.
This is absolutely different from the original executive director Wang Haochen.
The people around Wang Haochen who are trusted by Wang Haochen are almost all in their prime of life in the Mesozoic era. No matter how young they are, they are still in their twenties or thirties, and there are not many of them.
It is unimaginable for people like this group in Star City to be so young.
But it happened that this group of young people were more cautious than Wang Haochen's group, and they were much more cautious.
There is not as much pomp and circumstance as Wang Haochen did when he first moved into Liangcheng, and there are not so many heroic words and empty lies.
From the moment I arrived, everything I said and did was so pragmatic that it made people feel distressed.
Yu Yanru also nodded in agreement: "Indeed, in the area occupied by the strange tree, the quality of the survivors must be carefully verified, otherwise it will be us who will suffer."
Fang Zhi nodded secretly, finally having some small hope for this new batch of reinforcements.
At least, they didn't talk rhetorically. Everything they said was based on reality and used reality as the criterion.
This attitude alone is much better than Director Wang Haochen.
Of course, it is not convenient for Fang Zhi to say these words.
He could only express his position: "Deputy of the Korean team, the joint command team sent you to take charge of the overall situation. My burden is finally lighter. From now on, someone on our side is just a brick, wherever the command team tells me to move it,
I will move wherever I go.”
