Regardless of the current population of 3 million in the base, in fact most of them are new recruits from the past and cannot be incorporated into the ranks of the regular army. Moreover, the more times this happens, the more trust the base has to gain from the fresh blood injected into it. It is impossible.
Large-scale conscription or opening up lines to private armed forces.
Otherwise, the base would not send out all the pandas and nightingales to perform such an official mission.
The previous fierce battle with the vanguard of this bandit gang caused the base to have more than one-third of the casualties. The raid was launched during the repair and mobilization period, which led to strategic misjudgments and decision-making errors by Zong Gou and others, leading to the embarrassment of being dumped.
Condition.
Theoretically, this is the first time the base has come into contact with a large group of marauders wandering on the orbital line. It has little experience. Besides, who could have imagined that such a super marauding group with a number of hundreds of thousands of people would appear?
For example, under normal circumstances, the territory of a wild Siberian tiger usually reaches an area of hundreds or even thousands of square kilometers. Even if factors such as overlapping territories are taken into account, it can basically be understood to a certain extent as these hundreds or even thousands of square kilometers.
A square kilometer territory is strictly needed for survival and hunting. In other words, the output and support capacity of the territory are actually very limited.
So to make a simple analogy, what kind of spectacular resources and wealth do these hundreds of thousands of robbing groups who basically do not produce anything need to maintain their order and stabilize their existence without collapse?
As far as Li Cang knows, in the Sky Island Age, this was an almost impossible epic achievement unless...
As for saying that bandits are not engaged in production, this is not an insult. Li Cang thinks it is an inevitable rule. If they are willing to engage in productive labor or have the conditions to engage in productive labor, why would they burn, kill, and plunder?
Are you used to making quick money and windfall fortunes, but are you still willing to return to the hard, simple and monotonous logic of producers?
Once a thief, always a bandit.
It can refer to a bad reputation, or it can be understood in a literal sense.
Li Cang glanced at both sides of the melee and frowned: "There's no need to fight like this. It's a big loss."
Zong Gou also began to frown. He knew something about Li Cang's fighting ability, or he was fully mentally prepared for the fighting ability of Rao Qifang's family.
But the problem is that no matter what you do, it is taboo for an outsider to command an expert, let alone fight a war.
Zong Gou said: "War is bound to be an extremely cruel process. Compassion does not lead to soldiers and righteousness does not support wealth. Sacrifice is necessary, but not everyone can accept it."
The meaning of Zong Gou's words was obvious. He needed to save enough face for Rao Qifang. After all, she was the superior in theory...
Well, a false position.
Unexpectedly, after Zong Gou finished speaking, he found that instructor Rao's daughter glanced at him with a very obscure look that was difficult for him to understand. There seemed to be a little bit of strange emotion in her eyes: What?
mean?
This is not Li Cang's territory, so Li Cang nodded in affirmation and respect first, and then said as tactfully as possible: "What you are killing is a living human life, what they are killing is an animal. I guess they will not treat slaves the same way."
The death of animals will not cause them any fear."
Zong Gou and others looked at Li Cang in astonishment: "You said these strong guys with armors like wolves and tigers are so-called slaves? How is this possible!"
"Under the current situation, the resources obtained by a very large group that relies entirely on robbery cannot be enough to support everyone to obtain equal distribution and social status. The initiators will not allow this situation to occur. Their status
The layers are lowered layer by layer until the limit is reached, and the lowest layer is these people in front of you, gray animals, slaves, it doesn't matter what you call them."
"What do you mean?"
"Simple!"
Li Cang snapped his fingers and hovered in the air until Goudan, who was impatient, immediately found a suitable and pleasing target——
boom!
Earth-shattering fire explosions and shock waves. Surrounding a certain medium-sized enemy island, countless islands converted into small ships collided with each other and were destroyed, or burst into sparks due to the shock wave.
Li Cang took over a large speaker, put out the translator in eleven languages, and shouted impatiently: "Get out of here and tell someone who can speak reliably. I have no interest in animals or slaves!"
It's not professional enough. If Lao Wang were here, he would definitely be able to speak more decently.
In fact, Li Cang was very familiar with this situation.
With proper courtesy, strong reasons, and sufficient greetings, if the gang leader does not show up, there will be no need for his gang, which lives by robbery, has a strict hierarchical structure, and uses force as its moral yardstick, to continue, and mutiny is almost inevitable.
Sure enough, the fierce battlefield suddenly became quiet.
The other party's minions retreated cautiously, looking back in a certain direction, their eyes filled with morbid enthusiasm, anticipation, and the vague murderous intent that replaced them when an opportunity came.
Therefore, some more polite things are very necessary. If strong martial virtue can control everything in the world and bring peace, then the nationality on your household registration book should be Da Qin or Da Han.
"My friend, I think you are right. Animals do not need mercy. A truly strong man will not let such senseless killing dirty even one finger."
Religious structure:?
Suddenly I felt that this was the first incident in my life that was more ridiculous and misunderstood than the disaster that caused the Sky Island Age.
Rao Qifang's eyebrows revealed a smile full of superiority: "It seems that my son may not understand war, but he understands the subordinates outside!"
From the other side's sky island cluster, a half-moon shape slowly rises, which is like a half-ancient Colosseum-like sky island structure. In the center, which is also a high platform in the middle of the island, there are people standing and sitting in front and back, about
There are seventy or eighty people.
The speaker was obviously one of the leaders.
On the high platform, there are 7 seats of the same style as the golden throne under him, which are also wrapped around and facing this way.
What makes everyone in the base even more stunned is that, except for the 7 people with the golden throne and the 20 or so people standing around who are luxuriously dressed, gorgeous, with condescending and cruel and bloodthirsty eyes, most of the waiters on the stage are half-clothed.
Threads, dancing, kneeling, or simply being indescribable...
Have you ever seen scenes of gods "having fun with the people" that often appear in Western movies and TV shows? In short, it is very Western-style and very artistic. Compared with them, King Zhou of Shang Dynasty can be considered subtle and euphemistic...
It was an eye-opener for a group of people at the base, and their language management skills were somewhat out of control.
Li Cang was basically used to the strange thing. After looking around for a week, his expression was dull: "It's really disappointing. If you are in orbit, I may reward you with some leftover food from the livestock to fill your stomach before sending you on your way."
The pull of the translator has gradually made Li Cang and Lao Wang develop a language logic that is wary of the translator's petty emotions. After all, translation like this is usually more effective than Lao Wang's exciting but too straightforward ancestral tablet battle.
, and it is enough to fit the character of Teacher Cang as an elegant mage.
Hamity Stafford still maintained a very polite and gentlemanly smile: "I thought the person who invited me would be a gentleman who knows the rules. You are really embarrassing."
"I think you do need to establish better rules for your animals. It's obvious that they are not very well behaved."
