Three hundred and sixtieth eight chapters move defense
After hearing City Lord He's countermeasures, although everyone was still a little uneasy, they still felt confident.
Especially the last one was discussed in low voices by everyone.
"Yes, the aberrations are not monolithic. Are they really willing to be driven by the Pillar of Shadow?"
"It's just that the shadow of our rule has been shrouded for too long. We can not weaken it, so that they will not regard us as their primary enemy." Someone suggested.
When Shen Rui heard this, he shook his head slightly.
"Why, does Commander Shen have any different opinions?" someone asked.
"Abnormal monsters bully the weak and fear the strong. Their only rule is that the weak eat the strong. Don't blindly show weakness, otherwise they will treat you as real fat meat and eat it in one bite." Shen Rui reminded.
"Captain Shen said it well. We should not be biased in our actions, especially when dealing with these monsters. We should be soft-handed and hard-handed, and we should not be afraid of their current momentum and do things that harm the bottom line!" City Master He pointed at Shen Rui. Nod slightly to express appreciation.
At this time, someone else stood up and asked questions.
"City Lord He, our domestic combat power is already very tight, why do we still need to dispatch personnel to support other countries?"
Others also agreed, and no one was willing to send their own generals to fight abroad.
If you win, you will see no direct benefits; if you lose, you will definitely die abroad.
Over the years, Kyushu's external support forces have rarely had any good results; they have either been used as backing, or they have been abandoned afterwards.
As representatives of their respective organizations, or simply as owners, they don't care about so-called face at all. They go out to help outsiders work hard, but ignore the safety of their own families.
City Master He's face darkened: "Don't be too short-sighted. The doomsday crisis is both a danger and an opportunity. Many places overseas are open to us, including important resource producing areas and transportation thoroughfares... In the past, these places were dominated by those overlords. We have no way to intervene in the occupation, but now it is completely deserted..."
"Mingren don't tell secrets. This time is called support. In fact, we are going to occupy the territory. Do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand."
"I see, I'm going to ask why the city lord said this in the first place."
Everyone smiled at each other, and the conference room was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.
Shen Rui has a deep understanding of this. Kyushu is known as a vast land and rich in resources, but in fact it has been developed for thousands of years and has long been barren, whether it is land or minerals.
It's ridiculous that some people insist on saving face. Whether it is iron ore or oil, compared with foreign countries, it is simply a younger brother. Even coal, which has the largest reserves, needs to be mined from overseas after its development in the previous life.
Take iron ore as an example. The quality of domestic iron ore is quite low. After the raw ore is excavated, it needs to be screened and enriched. It is surprising to have an iron content of 34%. In foreign countries, it is common to find more than 70%. Yes, it can be put directly into the furnace.
At the end of the day, the cards will be reshuffled. As long as de facto occupation is established, and the population recovers later, they will immigrate there and it will naturally become their own territory.
Moreover, during this process, the hands are still clean, at least much cleaner than those of Western colonists.
"Okay, everyone, don't just think about eating meat. The top priority now is to divide the defense zone." City Lord He turned the topic to business, "The power of the five core castles must be balanced, and no one can be abandoned. Of all of you here, some are private organizations and some are official entities, but regardless of their nature, you all need to obey the arrangements."
Everyone fell silent and looked at each other, and then they reached the most critical point.
Each of the five defense zones has its own advantages and disadvantages.
For them, the best place is naturally the base, where they have rich connections and don't have to worry about being used as cannon fodder. Protecting their hometown is also the greatest motivation for organization members.
Regional sentiment is common to both China and foreign countries in ancient and modern times.
"We have calculated that within the current Kyushu, there have been many talents in the past two years. There are 5 strong people at the eighth level, 274 strong people at the seventh level, and thousands of people at the sixth level..."
"Some of these manpower are in various castles, some are under the direct control of the administration, and the other part is in your hands. We hope that you can take the overall situation into consideration and don't begrudge the power in your hands. You must know that power is only effective when it is used."
City Lord He, held up a small book, the meaning was very clear, no one should try to fool him.
"Everyone should tell you first, which defense zone you would like to be placed in. We will also take your opinions into consideration."
The conference room suddenly fell into silence, as no one seemed to want to be the first to speak out.
"They didn't say anything. That's normal. Then I'll call them by name one by one." City Master He took the small book and opened the first page.
"Where are the Thunder people?"
"Here, City Lord He, what are your orders?" A middle-aged woman in her forties stood up with a smile on her face.
"Liu Jing, your people are most familiar with the terrain around Shangyun City. How about continuing to station in Shangyun City?" City Lord He asked.
"Everything will be obeyed by City Lord He." Liu Jing quickly agreed.
Shen Rui looked at it carefully and found that Liu Jing was probably just a representative of Thunder. Her strength was only at the sixth level. Judging from her age, she was unlikely to make any big breakthroughs.
Ouyang whispered: "This is the director of the external relations department of the Thunder organization. He has been in office for more than 5 years. He is very shrewd, good at calculations, and rarely suffers losses."
"No wonder, it seems they have already discussed it." Shen Rui nodded.
Others thought so, too.
"People from Jingtao?" City Lord He continued to name names.
A sturdy young man with a weathered and wrinkled face stood up.
"You need to move the defense to Dayan Fort in the north and assist the east coast development team in defending the inland sea. Is there any problem?" City Lord He asked.
"Well, we are not very familiar with the hydrology in the north." The honest man rubbed his head with a puzzled look on his face.
"After all, you are an organization that fights at sea all year round. You can't solve this problem? On weekdays, both the castle and the management office give you a lot of convenience." City Lord He slapped the notebook and his voice was stern.
Only then did he show his demeanor as the Lord of a Fortress and an agent of the Administration.
Being kind and pleasant is just an appearance. He is good at acting both soft and hard.
The honest man shrank a little at the moment and looked at his companions beside him. A young woman shook her head slightly at him.
"Okay, let's try to overcome the difficulties. If there are difficulties, we must overcome them, and if there are no difficulties, we must overcome them even more." The stocky man said dejectedly.
"Very good, you know how to take the overall situation into consideration, and neither the administration nor this castle will treat you badly in the future." City Lord He softened his expression and looked at everyone.
Kill the chicken and scare the monkey...
There was a shadow in everyone's mind. Obviously, there didn't seem to be much room for bargaining here.
It's called consultation under the meeting, but in fact everyone has been arranged.
Sure enough, many organizations were moved to defense next.
After all, many large organizations are concentrated in a few large castles, so it is certainly impossible for them to remain in their original locations.
Those who can stay are often those with deep roots and many connections.
"This is unfair. Why can we move our defenses but they can continue to be stationed at their original location?" Someone finally questioned.
This is an organization that will be dispatched from a certain castle in the south to Dayan Castle in the north. Similar to Shen Rui's Sun Cavalry Regiment, they are both emerging organizations that were formed within two years. They also developed rapidly due to the outstanding talent of the leader.
Their leader has a powerful medical talent that can regenerate severed limbs, something even Shen Rui cannot do.
It can prevent the members who join the team from being disabled, but it cannot restore the disabled people to health.
From the perspective of battlefield protection, this leader can do almost the same thing as Shen Rui. He is very good at battlefield first aid. As long as he is not killed on the spot, he can be rescued.
From this point of view, it is still worse than Shen Rui's team, but the advantage of the other team is that they have no quota limit, and you can add as many people as you want...
