In these long and short years, there are too many ordinary people, with neither spectacular stories nor thrilling experiences.
Just like tiny dust particles in the world, they silently occupy their place in the vast world and live an ordinary and real life.
However, there are always some people whose lives seem to be particularly favored by the God of Luck.
Even if you only extract one day's experience, you can write a novel with ups and downs.
Being woken up eagerly by Xu Dong from a deep sleep, Lu Guangyin's eyes were still a bit confused and sleepy.
He rubbed his hazy eyes and gradually focused his vision. However, the scene in front of him made him wake up instantly, and an inexplicable shock and disbelief surged in his heart.
At this moment, he thought he was still in a dream and had a nightmare because he was too tired.
However, Xu Dong's hot breath and anxious look cruelly reminded him that all this was reality.
It was like a meeting was taking place around the wooden ship, with large and small ships stacked one above the other in several circles.
He saw nearly ten familiar frigates, both in paint and shape, exactly the same as the two that sank last night. The decks were all full of human heads and black holes with guns pointed at them.
There are also guerrilla boats smaller than frigates, like cunning wolves, cruising around.
Of course, the central command ship in position C is definitely the most eye-catching.
But at this time, Lu Guangyin no longer had time to look at these magnificent ships that gathered the crystallization of human industry.
He turned his head, with shock and despair intertwined in his eyes, looking straight at Xu Dong, his voice trembling:
"Tell me, I'm still dreaming, right? None of this is real, right?"
Xu Dong's face was pale. He avoided Lu Guangyin's gaze, swallowed hard, and then replied in a low voice: "No, this is not a dream, we, we are really surrounded."
"Why, haven't we obviously escaped?"
Lu Guangyin's tone was full of sadness, as if he had lost all his strength and leaned slumped against the side of the ship.
The surrounding iron boats seemed to be approaching them, and their wooden boats seemed so fragile and small in this steel forest.
Even if you have a gun in your hand, what's the use?
"Forehead"
Xu Dong took a breath, not knowing how to answer this question.
Could it be that he wanted to say that he was chasing that bright light, and that he was surrounded by enemies as he chased it?
"It's me, I accidentally fell into their ambush."
"ah?"
It may sound outrageous, but it seems perfectly normal to keep in touch with everything that has happened recently.
Lu Guangyin stood up in a daze and looked at a guerrilla boat heading towards the wooden boat.
The guerrilla boat was filled with soldiers armed with live ammunition, all of them staring at the two of them like wolves and tigers.
Seeing the killing intent in his eyes, Lu Guangyin would never doubt that if he made any overstep now, the other party would definitely shoot him immediately and decisively.
"So what did you do?"
"When you just fell asleep, I saw a bright light appear on the horizon, so I rowed to chase the bright light. Unexpectedly, before I could find the bright light, I met their people, and then this
The fleet surrounded us."
"Fuck, you idiot."
When he learned what happened, Lu Guangyin really wanted to kick Xu Dong off the wooden boat.
He was still thinking just now that such a huge fleet passing by on the river could be seen by anyone who was not blind.
It must be such an outrageous situation to be ambushed by this thing.
Now the answer is out. It really wasn't someone who ambushed them, but someone who chased them into the ambush.
If the other side knew that they had sunk two ships, they would not be able to skin them alive.
"You didn't tell them what happened in the Mineral Island Alliance, did you?"
"Of course I didn't say it. I haven't even communicated with them, okay?" Xu Dong muttered in a low voice, "And I'm not a fool. Even if I communicated with them, I wouldn't tell them that we sank the two ships.
of."
At first, what he encountered was just a guerrilla boat. In the end, the other party just glanced at them from a distance and chased behind the wooden boat, neither moving forward nor leaving.
Later, the large fleet came from behind and completely forced the wooden boat to a stop on the river.
"That's good, don't speak for a while." Xu Dong's answer made Lu Guangyin's heart drop a little. He breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had escaped a disaster.
He still had a glimmer of hope, thinking that the soldiers were just doing a routine inspection of all ships leaving the Mineral Island Alliance.
Although the guns and bullets on the wooden boat don't make sense at first glance, there is always room for maneuver.
After all, in these chaotic times, there are always some excuses that can be spun.
The guerrilla boat approached quickly and finally stopped on the water about five meters away from the wooden boat.
This distance was so close that Lu Guangyin could clearly see the faces, uniforms, and weapons of the soldiers on the ship.
100% and the two ships from the Mineral Island Alliance came from the same place.
The only difference is that the temperament of these soldiers is more cold and serious. They look like the elite of the elite, making it impossible for anyone to question their combat effectiveness.
Under Lu Guangyin's nervous and anxious gaze, the soldiers did not immediately ask questions, but silently took out two folders from the cabin.
At this moment, Lu Guangyin's heart suddenly sank, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
Although he didn't understand what was recorded in the document in the other person's hand, the behavior of lowering his head and raising his head from time to time seemed to be checking.
"Are you Lu Guangyin?"
The questioning voice of the soldier on the bow was like a bolt from the blue, instantly piercing Lu Guangyin's spiritual defense.
He felt dizzy, as if the whole world was spinning.
At this moment, Lu Guangyin knew clearly that he could no longer escape. Perhaps from the moment the ships surrounded them, it meant that their whereabouts had been exposed, and all cover-ups and disguises became meaningless.
"I" Lu Guangyin spoke with difficulty, his voice hoarse and low.
He wanted to make excuses, but he didn't know from which angle to start.
"Lord Lu, you are very courageous. First you led people to steal a lot of supplies that ordinary people need to survive, and then you made big news in the Mine Island Alliance."
What?
How did they know that I was the lord of Mengyue Territory? And that I had stolen supplies?
At this moment, the doubts in Lu Guangyin's heart even overshadowed the despair, and all kinds of complex emotions were intertwined and reached their peak.
"Who are you?"
Lu Guangyin opened his mouth, but finally sighed helplessly, extinguishing all hope.
Now, he no longer thinks about how to survive, but only wants to ask the questions in his heart before he dies.
Such a fleet and such heavy industrial equipment were produced by which territory?
Why has he never heard any relevant rumors or discussions on the World Channel?
"Huh? Do you really want to know our identities?"
The soldier smiled jokingly, the guerrilla boat quickly approached, and several soldiers jumped off as light as a swallow.
As the small wooden boat sank suddenly, big hands like iron hoops tightly grabbed Lu Guangyin and Xu Dong.
With Lao Xu's warning, the two of them were stripped naked without any resistance.
Only after confirming that there were no bombs or other dangerous items hidden on their bodies did the soldiers escort the two men onto the guerrilla boat.
"Give us back our clothes, we didn't provoke you!" After all, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Xu Dong still didn't understand what happened, and said a little unconvinced.
However, what responded to him was a cold hand that suddenly appeared at his throat.
Like a crane, the opponent grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up with one hand, showing a cold smile.
"Do I need a reason to kill you?"
Well
Xu Dong was pinched so hard that he couldn't breathe. It took a while before the soldiers threw him into the cabin like garbage.
He coughed repeatedly and raised his head again. The malicious look in his eyes could not be seen, only full of fear.
"Sirius Sirius, the suspect has been identified!"
"Received, please escort the suspect to the Starlight for custody and hand over after arriving at Tiantie Island."
"receive!"
Mineral Island Alliance.
Without the impact of the cooling disaster, the sun near noon in the southern fire zone was extremely hot, with temperatures approaching 40 degrees.
Survivors who are accustomed to the characteristics of the region often avoid activities during this time period and choose to be busy in the morning and evening. Even the miners choose to rest at noon.
However, today, the six islands are completely different from the past.
Whether it is the seaside pier, the plantations on the island, or even the undeveloped areas, there are crowds of people everywhere.
People hugged together in panic, full of confusion about the way forward.
After an extremely chaotic night, Qianshan Island, Silver Sand Island and Flint Island, which were not affected by the flames of war, were still relatively stable.
However, Shuima Island and Jinyan Island at the center of the battle were not so optimistic. Many civilians died under artillery fire, and buildings collapsed in pieces.
And there is also bad news that makes people unable to calm down at all.
Except for Tiantie Island, the managers of the other five islands worked hard and voted. As long as no other accidents happen, the alliance can now be said to be Sun Guangmin's alliance!
What's going on?
To say that Tiantie Island used to be the most powerful island in the Mine Island Alliance, it is enough to stay out of it now.
But the real situation is that Tiantie Island and Shuima Island are evenly matched at a 50-50 ratio. How can they possibly be able to take care of all the other five islands in the alliance in one fell swoop?
There's definitely something weird about this.
Fortunately, Sun Guangmin is a manager with a fairly good reputation in the alliance. Before the situation worsened, the survivors chose to stay for the time being.
After all, they have been developing in the Mine Island Alliance for more than half a year.
If you leave in such a panic, who knows if something similar will happen in the next place you go to.
Silver Sand Island.
At the entrance of a smelting factory, a middle-aged man got out of a rickshaw in a panic.
He is Danny Coleman, the director of this factory and one of the deputy managers of Silver Sand Island.
The reason why it is one of them is because Silver Sand Island is different from other islands.
There are more than a dozen deputy managers here, and as long as they are capable, they are all appointed as deputy managers by the manager Mayor, in order to deepen his rule and hegemony.
However, after Mayor died on Shuima Island last night, there are probably not many people who still dare to admit that they are the deputy manager of this Silver Sand Island.
Everyone was in disarray, fearing that they would be the next target.
Of course, Dani Koeman is one of the few people who still admits that he is the deputy manager.
After all, as long as this smelting factory cannot escape, he will be regarded as one of the targets even if he does not admit his identity.
"Mr. Coleman!" In the factory, many workers who were waiting anxiously saw Danny Coleman coming back and quickly caught up with them, asking each one in a panic.
Those survivors who had nothing left could just walk away, carrying buckets and running to other places without caring about anything.
But they have invested too much in this island and this factory, so they can just leave wherever they want.
Furthermore, the output from the smelting plant has stabilized, and the harvest season is about to begin.
As long as a buyer can be found, Silver Sand Island will have a steady stream of income, thus forming a circular chain.
It can be said that this place has become their home and life, and no one would be willing to leave now.
"I don't know the specific situation, but there shouldn't be any larger-scale chaos for the time being."
Danny Coleman's face turned pale, and he kept explaining what he had heard.
Currently, the managers of Qianshan Island and their Silver Sand Island next door are 100% sure to be dead.
Both of them died tragically on Shuima Island because of greed. It is said that their bodies were blown to pieces by rockets and were stuck on the wall and could not be removed.
The fate of Wu Jiahao, the manager of Shuima Island, was not much better.
The people under this guy didn't know what kind of madness they had. Not only did they send people to steal the weapons of the outsiders, they also joined forces with them, and in the end, both sides suffered losses.
The outsider's ship sank, and Wu Jiahao's Shuima Island Corps was also wiped out.
Now Wu Jiahao is being held in a prison on Tiantie Island, and it looks like he is in danger.
As for Encobat, the manager of Jinyan Island, and Hua Qingyun, the manager of Firestone Island.
These two guys were quite discerning, and they decisively chose to surrender when they noticed something was a little bit wrong. There should be no major problems with them now, they are just temporarily under house arrest for investigation.
It's a pity that they didn't expect that when Wu Jiahao's people went crazy, they would bite everyone they saw.
The dense rain of bullets was fired at random, and many people were shot to death before they had a chance to dodge.
Only some people who jumped into the water in time survived, but compared to the total number, this number was pitifully small.
"Is there anything going on in Iron Island that day?"
"I'm afraid so." Danny Coleman nodded, not knowing how to continue.
Among the six islands, the only one who stayed out of the matter was Tiantie Island, with the only manager, Sun Guangmin.
This is both a good thing and a bad thing.
Sun Guangmin is a person without too many ambitions. If he controls the Mine Island Alliance, the safety of ordinary survivors should not be a problem, and the smelting plants on the major islands will not be forcibly occupied by him.
But the lack of ambition means that the Mine Island Alliance can no longer maintain its previous strength.
Once there is an invasion by a powerful enemy like the outsiders last night, it is only a matter of time before the alliance changes hands.
