The blazing flames climbed up the wooden eaves, illuminating the faces of a dazed and astonished.
The rising black smoke was like a homeless ghost, and the crackling howling was particularly conspicuous in the silence of everyone.
This is the southwest corner of Mammoth State, a small village called Shitou Village...or it used to be called this name.
Most of the people living here are free people of the empire.
But the empire and other areas on the wasteland are the opposite, and the free people here are not something to be proud of.
Since most of the fertile land along the river is in the hands of the nobles, most of the free people live a very difficult life even if they have land to plant.
If ordinary serfs eat six meals of red clay a week, then the free people may have to eat seven or eight meals, basically maintaining a half-dead state.
Of course, there are those who can survive in or near the settlement.
The same is true for Shitou Village. Because it is far away from the Tasang River, there are no small rivers or lakes nearby, and the land is not easy to plant, so most villagers just fooled them into food and clothing.
This kind of guy who lives like weeds really can't squeeze out any oil and water. The empire is usually too lazy to pay attention to them. Apart from collecting taxes, he usually lets them die.
Of course, this gift of tolerance is limited to ordinary times.
You can see the boundary marker of Mazhou after walking five or six miles south from Shitou Village. However, it was a waste of five or six miles to make the fire that was strong and clear to the wilderness burned here...
At the gate of Shitou Village, an old man over fifty years old sat on the ground, looking up at the tall centurion, crying with tears.
Sir, we have lived here for many years. You burned this place. Where do we live in...
The centurion looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly.
Next door is Mazhou, and further south is Huzhou. You have long legs. As long as you don’t go north, you can go wherever you like.
The old man begged.
But, but... without land, how can we live.
How to live?The centurion sneered, looked down at the old person lying on the ground, and said sarcastically, "Just just find a manor to sell yourself... Don't cry, you old person is old, it's time to get buried."
Seeing the old man staring at him blankly, the centurion thought that he was not very particular about what he said, so he calmed down and said in a slightly relaxed tone.
Okay, there are bandits here, and I'm going to let you leave for your own good, so I don't know the bad things.I'll give you time to pack up, and get out of here when it's okay.
Bandit trouble?!But, but those Yue tribes don’t care about us...
Seeing the centurion walking and leaving, the stunned old man suddenly became anxious. He spoke nonsense for a moment, but forgot the identity of the military master in front of him, and even more forgot what the Yue tribe's people mean to the empire.
The centurion stopped hearing this, squinted his eyes and looked up and down at the old man's eyes, with his eyes slightly unkind.
Have they been here?
Not only the centurion stared at the old man with his eyes squinting, but the soldiers on the side also placed their hands on the Ripper's rifle.
Feeling something wrong with the atmosphere, the old man was also frightened and stuttered for a moment.
I……
The centurion stared at him.
Why not report to nearby outposts?
Why not report to nearby outposts?
What, what outpost?
Beads of sweat as big as beans oozed out from the old man's forehead. Before he could explain, the centurion waved at the soldiers beside him.
Take it back for trial.
The two soldiers strode forward, each of them caught the old man with his shoulders, and regardless of the latter's screams as if he was slaughtering pigs, he carried them onto the cart like a livestock.
The young man in the village wanted to go up and stop him, but was so impatient that he was afraid to move forward by the murderous gaze. He could only watch the elders in the village being taken away...
A similar scene happened not only in Shitou Village, but also in other places.Even more than that.
More than 50,000 gray wolf army stepped into the mammoth state occupied by the rebels with a momentum, and made plans to avenge the previous shame from top to bottom.
While sending scouts to investigate the movements of the resistance army, Alayan steadily set up the front line, and at the same time sent a small group of troops to advance his strategy of firmly clearing the field along the border.
Those who were taken away were not only old men who were suspected of having contact with the resistance army.
There are also men, women, children and animals in livestock sheds who have no idea what happened.These imperial soldiers didn't even let go of the eggs laid by the hens.
Of course, not all villages are so docile and obedient. After all, with the ecological conditions of the Bharat Province, it also takes some skills to withstand the land annexation of the nobles.
Some indignant young men moved out dung forks, bows and arrows, bird guns and even earth cannons to try to fight against the empire's gray wolf army.
However, their righteous indignation did not scare away the empire's gray wolf, but instead brought disaster to themselves and their families.
Although the Grey Wolf Army was almost flooded by the Alliance in the Yongliu River when they were outside the Golden Gallon Harbor, it was no problem for them to clean up a group of poor people who were not covered in clothes.
Just a charge, the soldiers killed the group of weeds that were ignorant of the sky and the earth and flowed into a river of blood.
Once the bayonet sees Hong, things won't end so well.
What's more, the Grey Wolf Army has been corroded by the Tiger Army and the Black Panther Army. Both the fighting will and discipline are far inferior to half a year ago... Although they were not much better than half a year ago.
After venting the animal desires of those living weak people, a group of gray wolves who had enjoyed enough lifted their pants and gave them a pleasure. They threw their heads on the cart and took them back to the camp to seek credit.
Just on the hundreds of kilometers of state boundary border between Mammoth State and Mazhou, the burning flames were like a long snake crawling in, swallowing one village after another.
That behavior like a beast, just like the wolf howling on the Ten Peaks Mountain.Not even worse...
...These beasts!
Ackerman stared at the soldiers leaving the ruins at the edge of the dark forest, with raging rage burning in his eyes.
When the long-haired woman was dragged into the bullpen, he thought of his mother...
The same was true for the soldiers beside him. Everyone was holding the rifle in their hands tightly, hoping to rush up and swallow the 100-man team alive.
Especially the boy named Udi, if he hadn't been pulling him by his companion beside him, he might have rushed up.
There are too many of them...we only have ten of them, not their opponents.
Taking a deep breath and calmed down, Ackerman said in a deep voice.
Lasi tells us that if you want to defeat opponents who are much stronger than us, you must not only have the ruthlessness of not being afraid of death, but also learn to use your brain.
A tall teenager with freckles looked at him and asked in a low voice.
What should we do?
You bring Udi, and you, you...
Ackerman counted five local recruits and handed them over to the veteran who had been killed all the way from Huzhou. He lowered his voice and continued to instruct, "You go north and tell the villagers what happened here, just say that the people from the empire are coming, and they will kill them when they see them. If you don't want to die, run north quickly."
It was useless if they went there, Udi interrupted and whispered, "It's all over it...
It was just temporarily flooded, the flood season has passed, and it is winter soon... When spring comes, the flooded land is the most fertile, and Lord Lasi will share the land of the nobles to them.Ackerman said without hesitation.
The land that originally belonged to the nobles along the Tasang River has been annexed and can be used to resettle these displaced villagers once the flood season has passed.
The land is much more fertile than here, Lasi said he would give some to the locals.Now Mammoth State is the territory of the Resistance Army, and they have to manage this land well.
Hearing the dividing of land, the eyes of the two young men lit up, including Udi.
His village is outside Mammoth City, where all the nobles are territories.
His parents planted land for the nobles for a lifetime, and there was no land of their own. Now some people are willing to share the nobles' manors and plantations with them. They were so excited that they could cheer.
Only a few veterans from Huzhou smiled as they looked at their innocent appearance.
Farming?
That thing has no way out.
They suffered enough farming in the mountains of Huzhou, and they had to carry guns when they really lived a good life.
Freckled face frowned slightly, looked at Ackerman and asked: Why do those villagers believe us?
Go there and pick up some things for them to bring. If you believe it or not, we can only save those who can save them.
Ackerman pointed to the ruins of the village not far away and signaled him to go there to pick up some physical evidence, then lowered his voice and continued.
Today, there should be only these villages. The gray wolves dare not walk at night, but they can’t say it after dawn. It’s best to move faster and finish everything before dawn... Remember, you must notify all the villages within the half-day journey!
The six young men nodded with a serious expression, crawled into the bushes beside them and carefully touched the village, and disappeared in a flash.
As for Ackerman, he followed the retreating Gray Wolf Army's 100 team to try to find their regiment headquarters.
If you are lucky, you may find an opportunity to fight them!
At the same time, on the other side, General Alayan looked at the sand table expressionlessly at the command center of the Gray Wolf Army, and his thoughts unconsciously drifted away with the chess pieces on the sand table.
I still remember that at the beginning of the year, he was still a god of war admired by thousands of people.
In just half a year, those who admired him regarded him as a shame to the empire and stepped into the sewer with a fierce kick.
Those people praised him at that time and then how fiercely they threw him.But it was precisely because of that incident that he completely woke up
These troublemakers are not worthy of his sympathy.
He shouldn't have treated them as humans, although he didn't feel sorry for them much before.
Until today, he still won't forget the frustration he suffered in Jingalun Port. The poor people who were crawling inside and outside killed his scouts for a few silver coins, sold his intelligence, and deliberately dug the trenches as graves. The soldiers who dug up their hands were raised above their heads and couldn't stretch out the trenches.
There are also reed marsh on the Yongliu River.
Those guys would rather be shot and drown ghosts than be alliance dogs, but they would not stay in the empire and be a good person.
He knew better than anyone else that after his orders to clear the world, the people below would definitely do whatever they wanted.
But so what?
Instead of keeping these pigs on the front line and deliberately doing bad things to help others, it is better to use their blood to shock those who dare to go against the empire.
At this time, the officer responsible for the work of clearing the fields of the stalwarts walked into the tent, looked at General Alayan standing in front of the map and saluted respectfully, and reported.
Sir, 80% of the Moon Resistance Army have been here.
They will definitely come, nothing is strange.You can check in a while. Who has relatives in the Resistance Army? Regardless of whether they are distant or close relatives, they will be drawn out to form a team alone. I will keep it useful.
Staring at Mammoth City on the map, Alayan continued expressionlessly.
That Lasi was an officer trained by the league, and the one who left Golden Gallon Port with him was also trained by the league.What these people are best at is interspersing, penetrating, breaking up the whole into pieces, and fighting more with less... When they were in Luoxia Province and the River Valley Province, those people relied on these tricks to make the Willant people suffer a lot.
The officer's expression froze and he whispered.
If this is the case, this battle will probably not be easy to fight.
I am afraid?Alayan laughed loudly, curled his lips and continued, "Don't expect a quick battle. It will take at least three or four months to completely wipe out them. If they want to fight guerrillas, let them fight. We set up our formation."
Before his words could be finished, an explosion came from afar.
Both of them in the camp were stunned. Alayan's face changed first, and he hurriedly snatched out of the tent, looking in the direction where the sound came.
The officer followed him out of the camp, and then heard the second explosion coming from afar.The officer said with a trembling voice.
155mm！
Alliance's 155!
The impression that thing left on him was so unforgettable that he would never forget the buzzing feeling of his head being shaken in his life.
You need to say nonsense... Alayan cursed, took off the walkie-talkie hanging on his shoulder and roared.
The first few shells were just scheduling!
Near the bombarded troops, there must be guerrilla investigators and communication stations at the reporting point!
The facts are indeed as Alayan thought.
Soon the boiling cannon sounded on the position of the 70000 team to which the 10,000 team belonged, giving the Gray Wolf Army a blow to the originally high morale.
Due to the inadequate excavation of artillery fortifications, the entire Thousand-Person team suffered heavy casualties. Only 60% escaped from the position and were rescued by the Sixth Thousand-Person team who rushed to reinforce.
The second win ended in the first confrontation between the Gray Wolf Army and the Moon Resistance Army, but the victory or defeat of just one battle is not enough to reverse the latter's disadvantage.
The gap in force between the two sides is still huge.
Alayan had an army of 50,000, and was also an elite army equipped with Willant equipment. His chief instructor was McCran, a famous general of the Eastern Legion.
As for Lasi, although he destroyed the local army of Mammoth State with one trick, allowing the resistance army to face the attack of the Gray Wolf Army intact, even so, the total number of troops he could use was only over 20,000, and most of them were new recruits.
Although residents of Golden Gallon Port and even French Fries Port donated tens of millions of silver coins to the Moon Resistance Army, if the latter cannot win on the battlefield, all ideals will be nothing more than empty talk in the end...
……
Jinjialun Port, the waiting hall of the passenger terminal, Qian Duozheng from Shuguang City looked through the Survivor Daily with interest.
The version of Survivor Daily here is completely different from the Dawn City. It mainly reports some news that is interesting to locals. As for the battle situation in Haiya Province and the matters in the River Valley Province, only a few have been mentioned.
As for today.
Almost all newspapers in Golden Gallon Port are focused on the frontline of Mammoth State.
...There are both people, evidence and physical evidence!Shameless executioner Alayan!
Roger, Secretary-General of the Golden Gallon Port Federation, strongly condemned the barbaric behavior of the Imperial Grey Wolf Army, and 100,000 survivors raised signs to protest the authorities' deportation of prisoners of war!
The Governor-General Secretary-General Yodu, who has always refused to comment on the relevant affairs of the Empire, made a rare statement to denounce the imperial crimes. It is not only the stone village that has committed the tragedy, but I don’t know how many of them are invisible to us!
A Chinese teacher from the southern waters who did not want to be named expressed was shocked in an interview: Shame!I will write to my relatives and friends on the Circular Island, and I will go to the representatives to petition!Survivors in the southern waters will never cooperate with cannibalism!
More than a hundred villages were burned down, hundreds of thousands of survivors were expelled, and countless dead during the migration... Tsk tsk, the people of Xilan were cruel to their own people.
Looking at the shocking photo, Qian Duo couldn't help but tut his tongue, but he just tutted his tongue and turned back a new page.
Mammoth State is where he is going in a while, and he is waiting for an hour to fly there.But to be honest, he felt a little upset when he saw the battle here so fiercely.
Ten thousand...
How many tens of thousands are there in Shuguang City now?
Three hundred thousand?
Or half a million?
If the migrant population is counted, it is probably a bit difficult to calculate.
Han Long, who was sitting next to him, raised his eyelids and said casually.
Is it because the chewing bone tribe is not cruel, or the mutants in Jinchuan Province are not cruel... It is rare and strange.
Haha, that's true... But then again, if the alliance does not plan to take action against 20,000 scattered soldiers, I think Lasi will probably be finished.Looking at the comparison of the strength of the two armies on the next page, Qian Duo said casually with a smile.
With the alliance taking action, the Legion may have to end, well... it is indeed not easy to deal with.Han Long answered thoughtfully.
At this moment, a strange voice suddenly came from beside him: He is not finished.
Han Long ignored it, Qian Duo looked at the man who was involved in the topic with interest, and saw a man who looked gentle, elegant and easy-going.
He looks like a noble person, but his outfit is not very valuable.He had a suitcase at his feet, and he looked quite small, and he probably had to go out a long way.
Curious about the locals' opinions, Qian Duo asked curiously: Oh?Do you think he can win even if the league doesn’t take action?
Zaid smiled faintly and said in a very soft voice.
It depends on how you define the winning or losing. If you aim to defeat Alayan, it is no problem for him.But if it aims to target the program proposed by the Federation, he has no chance of winning.
Qian Duoha laughed.
What you said is interesting, but my opinion is contrary to you.If the Gray Wolf Army loses again, the Empire will never be able to turn the tables again, and it is only a matter of time before the collapse occurs.
Zaid shook his head and said clearly.
Our views are not actually conflicting, but the ‘collapse of the empire’ and ‘realization of the Federation Program’ are two different things.
Qian Duo became more and more interested in this guy and said with a smile.
Do you mean Lasi wants to be emperor?But I don’t think this is necessarily a bad thing. Even if it’s feudal here?At least it is much more civilized than the current appearance of eating raw meat and drinking blood... Sorry, what I said is a bit straightforward, but it seems to me, an outsider.
After all, it is a god who can compete with things like the Chewing Bone Tribe, which have been buried in the soil. The place where birds in Honghe Town are not shit may be much more advanced than theirs.
Zaid was not angry, but just smiled faintly.
It is possible for everyone to see that Lasi wants to be an emperor, but you are not the only one who can see that.But unfortunately he didn't have this opportunity. The survivors of the Bharat Province did not need an emperor, or the people here never needed an emperor, but the final result allowed them to get His Majesty... Of course, what they needed was not equality, but people who "can make decisions for me."
Qian Duo raised his eyebrows with interest.
He had done sufficient market research before coming here, especially reading Ms. Han Mingyue's investigation report repeatedly.
What this guy said is completely different from the research results of the Alliance Scientific Research Team, although it is not completely opposite.
Do you think Lasi isn't that person?
Zaid shook his head.
Obviously not.
Qian Duo asked curiously.
Because he was a slave?
Zaid shook his head again.
Of course not.
Qian Duo asked again.
Then why?
Zaid looked at the ceiling and thought for a while.
Because... he wants to be a good emperor.
Qian Duo can't help laughing.
Is there anything wrong with this?
Zaid smiled faintly and did not directly answer the question.
There is a logical paradox on this land, which I will call it...'The mouse cannot become a human theorem', abbreviated as the "Ratman Theorem".Those who want to be a good general will definitely not be a good general, and those who want to be a good emperor will definitely not be a good emperor, even if they just want to be a good person, they will definitely not be a good person.Whether it is Lasi or Wutu, whether it is the young men of the Federation or the old nobles of Wutu, the harder they work and struggle, the more they will go against their ideals.
This seems to be the theory he has compiled. After all, he thought about the name of the broken theory for a long time.
But in order to better understand the market under my feet, Qianduo still continued to listen with an interest: It sounds like a desperate fate.
Isn't that true?
Zeid looked at the wall clock on the wall of the waiting room, and it seemed that there was still some time, so he continued talking.
...The invisible curse entangled everyone on this land, whether it was the Rat or the Moon.Some people realized the source of the curse, red clay, and a city of thousands of pillars, but more people just thought they realized it, but in fact they didn't know anything, so they turned their eyes on red clay and on the thousand pillars.It’s like picking flowers in the mirror, fishing for the moon in the water, and finding a horse in the cowshed.
The only one who can decide for the survivors of the Bharat Province is a perfect 'saint' who strives for excellence at this point, even more pious than the believers of Silver Moon Bay, so they finally got Rowell as they wish... You might say Rowell died a long time ago, but isn't Wutu another Rowell?
He actually never left, and kept cursing the person who buried him in the red soil.Now his children have found new answers, and they are something they have never thought about before, that is, the "equality" you give them.
He lowered his eyebrows and sighed quietly.
Everything seems beautiful, but unfortunately the curse broke out, or the "rat man theorem" came into effect. A mouse who longs to be a good person cannot even be a good mouse.When all the survivors of the Bharat provinces are consciously or unintentionally craving for ‘equality’, they will eventually get something completely opposite.
Qian Duo was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile.
If there is such a perfect saint, let alone you, we also need it... you don't have to say laziness as something unique to you.
Zaid said with a smile, shook his head.
You don’t actually need it, you’re just talking about it, you are completely different from us.Let me give you the simplest example. If it is in the Bharat Province, a group of people who don’t seem serious but do some good things will not please anyone, and they will go to hell.
Are you talking about refuge residents?Qian Duo glanced around, and there were just a few blue jackets nearby, and then said with a smile, "I think the people in Jin Jialun Port also like them."
Zaid whispered.
That's because they haven't left yet... Moreover, you see, the Port of Jingalun seems to have been well transformed and finally got the equality they dreamed of, but in fact they didn't realize that they just finally found the people who 'can make the decision for them', or the group of people who can hold their exhausted souls.
This sounds like saying that the survivors of the Bharat Province are idealists, but the Survivor Daily in the Port of King Gallen also advocates materialism, just like the Alliance.
Qian Duo raised his eyebrows with interest, although he completely disagreed with his point of view.
Your inference is interesting, but there is no basis... In fact, you might as well follow Ms. Han Mingyue and write your inference into a more organized paper and publish it. We look forward to the debate between you.
Zaid suddenly laughed.
That kind of thing makes no sense. Would you write the specific steps of making money in the newspaper?And don't forget the rat-man theorem I mentioned. I don't want to be the first victim of this paradox. There are too many people who will die for it.Time will prove my judgment... My flight is coming, I wish you a pleasant trip.
As he said that, he stood up from the seat with his suitcase, and suddenly he seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Qian Duo with a smile, taking off his hat and paying tribute.
In addition, Mammoth State is indeed a good place, and I am also optimistic about the future there.
Leaving the surprised alliance businessman, Zaid walked to the security checkpoint.He seemed to have had some argument with the people there, but he finally went up.
Qian Duo looked at Han Long beside him and said excitedly.
Damn... This guy has something, but he actually saw that we were going to go to Mammoth State for inspection?Funny guy.
He should ask his name.
Han Long stared at the man's back for a while, and his electronic eyes shook left and right.
I only care about the boss's business... By the way, this person doesn't seem to be optimistic about Lasi?Do we still need to go?
Qian Duoha said with a smile.
It is his point of view that he doesn't like. There are many people in this world who have different opinions from us. Don't be influenced by the nonsense of a passerby.What's more, our views are not all the opposite. At least he is optimistic about Mammoth State, which is the same as mine.
If Liszt Group wants to keep up with the trend of the times, it must expand its overseas business like Baiyue Company and join the new supply chain that is being formed.
In the future, the alliance's commodities will no longer be produced in the two industrial areas, Dawn City and Giant Rock City. The invisible logistics network will connect all the backward and advanced productivity in the sticky community.
However, although expanding the business is key, controlling risks is even more critical.
And this is why Liszt asked him to go to Mammoth City, but he placed his first stop at Golden Gallon Port.Only nouveau riche only focuses on yields.
Before considering the profit, he has to find a way out.
The rising black smoke was like a homeless ghost, and the crackling howling was particularly conspicuous in the silence of everyone.
This is the southwest corner of Mammoth State, a small village called Shitou Village...or it used to be called this name.
Most of the people living here are free people of the empire.
But the empire and other areas on the wasteland are the opposite, and the free people here are not something to be proud of.

If ordinary serfs eat six meals of red clay a week, then the free people may have to eat seven or eight meals, basically maintaining a half-dead state.
Of course, there are those who can survive in or near the settlement.
The same is true for Shitou Village. Because it is far away from the Tasang River, there are no small rivers or lakes nearby, and the land is not easy to plant, so most villagers just fooled them into food and clothing.
This kind of guy who lives like weeds really can't squeeze out any oil and water. The empire is usually too lazy to pay attention to them. Apart from collecting taxes, he usually lets them die.
Of course, this gift of tolerance is limited to ordinary times.
You can see the boundary marker of Mazhou after walking five or six miles south from Shitou Village. However, it was a waste of five or six miles to make the fire that was strong and clear to the wilderness burned here...
At the gate of Shitou Village, an old man over fifty years old sat on the ground, looking up at the tall centurion, crying with tears.
Sir, we have lived here for many years. You burned this place. Where do we live in...
The centurion looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly.
Next door is Mazhou, and further south is Huzhou. You have long legs. As long as you don’t go north, you can go wherever you like.
The old man begged.
But, but... without land, how can we live.
How to live?The centurion sneered, looked down at the old person lying on the ground, and said sarcastically, "Just just find a manor to sell yourself... Don't cry, you old person is old, it's time to get buried."
Seeing the old man staring at him blankly, the centurion thought that he was not very particular about what he said, so he calmed down and said in a slightly relaxed tone.
Okay, there are bandits here, and I'm going to let you leave for your own good, so I don't know the bad things.I'll give you time to pack up, and get out of here when it's okay.
Bandit trouble?!But, but those Yue tribes don’t care about us...
Seeing the centurion walking and leaving, the stunned old man suddenly became anxious. He spoke nonsense for a moment, but forgot the identity of the military master in front of him, and even more forgot what the Yue tribe's people mean to the empire.
The centurion stopped hearing this, squinted his eyes and looked up and down at the old man's eyes, with his eyes slightly unkind.
Have they been here?
Not only the centurion stared at the old man with his eyes squinting, but the soldiers on the side also placed their hands on the Ripper's rifle.
Feeling something wrong with the atmosphere, the old man was also frightened and stuttered for a moment.
I……
The centurion stared at him.
Why not report to nearby outposts?
Why not report to nearby outposts?
What, what outpost?
Beads of sweat as big as beans oozed out from the old man's forehead. Before he could explain, the centurion waved at the soldiers beside him.
Take it back for trial.
The two soldiers strode forward, each of them caught the old man with his shoulders, and regardless of the latter's screams as if he was slaughtering pigs, he carried them onto the cart like a livestock.
The young man in the village wanted to go up and stop him, but was so impatient that he was afraid to move forward by the murderous gaze. He could only watch the elders in the village being taken away...
A similar scene happened not only in Shitou Village, but also in other places.Even more than that.
More than 50,000 gray wolf army stepped into the mammoth state occupied by the rebels with a momentum, and made plans to avenge the previous shame from top to bottom.
While sending scouts to investigate the movements of the resistance army, Alayan steadily set up the front line, and at the same time sent a small group of troops to advance his strategy of firmly clearing the field along the border.
Those who were taken away were not only old men who were suspected of having contact with the resistance army.
There are also men, women, children and animals in livestock sheds who have no idea what happened.These imperial soldiers didn't even let go of the eggs laid by the hens.
Of course, not all villages are so docile and obedient. After all, with the ecological conditions of the Bharat Province, it also takes some skills to withstand the land annexation of the nobles.
Some indignant young men moved out dung forks, bows and arrows, bird guns and even earth cannons to try to fight against the empire's gray wolf army.
However, their righteous indignation did not scare away the empire's gray wolf, but instead brought disaster to themselves and their families.
Although the Grey Wolf Army was almost flooded by the Alliance in the Yongliu River when they were outside the Golden Gallon Harbor, it was no problem for them to clean up a group of poor people who were not covered in clothes.
Just a charge, the soldiers killed the group of weeds that were ignorant of the sky and the earth and flowed into a river of blood.
Once the bayonet sees Hong, things won't end so well.
What's more, the Grey Wolf Army has been corroded by the Tiger Army and the Black Panther Army. Both the fighting will and discipline are far inferior to half a year ago... Although they were not much better than half a year ago.
After venting the animal desires of those living weak people, a group of gray wolves who had enjoyed enough lifted their pants and gave them a pleasure. They threw their heads on the cart and took them back to the camp to seek credit.
Just on the hundreds of kilometers of state boundary border between Mammoth State and Mazhou, the burning flames were like a long snake crawling in, swallowing one village after another.
That behavior like a beast, just like the wolf howling on the Ten Peaks Mountain.Not even worse...
...These beasts!
Ackerman stared at the soldiers leaving the ruins at the edge of the dark forest, with raging rage burning in his eyes.
When the long-haired woman was dragged into the bullpen, he thought of his mother...
The same was true for the soldiers beside him. Everyone was holding the rifle in their hands tightly, hoping to rush up and swallow the 100-man team alive.
Especially the boy named Udi, if he hadn't been pulling him by his companion beside him, he might have rushed up.

The land that originally belonged to the nobles along the Tasang River has been annexed and can be used to resettle these displaced villagers once the flood season has passed.
The land is much more fertile than here, Lasi said he would give some to the locals.Now Mammoth State is the territory of the Resistance Army, and they have to manage this land well.
Hearing the dividing of land, the eyes of the two young men lit up, including Udi.
His village is outside Mammoth City, where all the nobles are territories.
His parents planted land for the nobles for a lifetime, and there was no land of their own. Now some people are willing to share the nobles' manors and plantations with them. They were so excited that they could cheer.
Only a few veterans from Huzhou smiled as they looked at their innocent appearance.
Farming?
That thing has no way out.
They suffered enough farming in the mountains of Huzhou, and they had to carry guns when they really lived a good life.
Freckled face frowned slightly, looked at Ackerman and asked: Why do those villagers believe us?
Go there and pick up some things for them to bring. If you believe it or not, we can only save those who can save them.
Ackerman pointed to the ruins of the village not far away and signaled him to go there to pick up some physical evidence, then lowered his voice and continued.
Today, there should be only these villages. The gray wolves dare not walk at night, but they can’t say it after dawn. It’s best to move faster and finish everything before dawn... Remember, you must notify all the villages within the half-day journey!
The six young men nodded with a serious expression, crawled into the bushes beside them and carefully touched the village, and disappeared in a flash.
As for Ackerman, he followed the retreating Gray Wolf Army's 100 team to try to find their regiment headquarters.
If you are lucky, you may find an opportunity to fight them!
At the same time, on the other side, General Alayan looked at the sand table expressionlessly at the command center of the Gray Wolf Army, and his thoughts unconsciously drifted away with the chess pieces on the sand table.
I still remember that at the beginning of the year, he was still a god of war admired by thousands of people.
In just half a year, those who admired him regarded him as a shame to the empire and stepped into the sewer with a fierce kick.
Those people praised him at that time and then how fiercely they threw him.But it was precisely because of that incident that he completely woke up
These troublemakers are not worthy of his sympathy.
He shouldn't have treated them as humans, although he didn't feel sorry for them much before.
Until today, he still won't forget the frustration he suffered in Jingalun Port. The poor people who were crawling inside and outside killed his scouts for a few silver coins, sold his intelligence, and deliberately dug the trenches as graves. The soldiers who dug up their hands were raised above their heads and couldn't stretch out the trenches.
There are also reed marsh on the Yongliu River.
Those guys would rather be shot and drown ghosts than be alliance dogs, but they would not stay in the empire and be a good person.
He knew better than anyone else that after his orders to clear the world, the people below would definitely do whatever they wanted.
But so what?
Instead of keeping these pigs on the front line and deliberately doing bad things to help others, it is better to use their blood to shock those who dare to go against the empire.
At this time, the officer responsible for the work of clearing the fields of the stalwarts walked into the tent, looked at General Alayan standing in front of the map and saluted respectfully, and reported.
Sir, 80% of the Moon Resistance Army have been here.
They will definitely come, nothing is strange.You can check in a while. Who has relatives in the Resistance Army? Regardless of whether they are distant or close relatives, they will be drawn out to form a team alone. I will keep it useful.
Staring at Mammoth City on the map, Alayan continued expressionlessly.
That Lasi was an officer trained by the league, and the one who left Golden Gallon Port with him was also trained by the league.What these people are best at is interspersing, penetrating, breaking up the whole into pieces, and fighting more with less... When they were in Luoxia Province and the River Valley Province, those people relied on these tricks to make the Willant people suffer a lot.
The officer's expression froze and he whispered.
If this is the case, this battle will probably not be easy to fight.
I am afraid?Alayan laughed loudly, curled his lips and continued, "Don't expect a quick battle. It will take at least three or four months to completely wipe out them. If they want to fight guerrillas, let them fight. We set up our formation."
Before his words could be finished, an explosion came from afar.
Both of them in the camp were stunned. Alayan's face changed first, and he hurriedly snatched out of the tent, looking in the direction where the sound came.
The officer followed him out of the camp, and then heard the second explosion coming from afar.The officer said with a trembling voice.
155mm！
Alliance's 155!
The impression that thing left on him was so unforgettable that he would never forget the buzzing feeling of his head being shaken in his life.
You need to say nonsense... Alayan cursed, took off the walkie-talkie hanging on his shoulder and roared.
The first few shells were just scheduling!
Near the bombarded troops, there must be guerrilla investigators and communication stations at the reporting point!
The facts are indeed as Alayan thought.
Soon the boiling cannon sounded on the position of the 70000 team to which the 10,000 team belonged, giving the Gray Wolf Army a blow to the originally high morale.
Due to the inadequate excavation of artillery fortifications, the entire Thousand-Person team suffered heavy casualties. Only 60% escaped from the position and were rescued by the Sixth Thousand-Person team who rushed to reinforce.
The second win ended in the first confrontation between the Gray Wolf Army and the Moon Resistance Army, but the victory or defeat of just one battle is not enough to reverse the latter's disadvantage.
The gap in force between the two sides is still huge.
Alayan had an army of 50,000, and was also an elite army equipped with Willant equipment. His chief instructor was McCran, a famous general of the Eastern Legion.
As for Lasi, although he destroyed the local army of Mammoth State with one trick, allowing the resistance army to face the attack of the Gray Wolf Army intact, even so, the total number of troops he could use was only over 20,000, and most of them were new recruits.
Although residents of Golden Gallon Port and even French Fries Port donated tens of millions of silver coins to the Moon Resistance Army, if the latter cannot win on the battlefield, all ideals will be nothing more than empty talk in the end...
……
Jinjialun Port, the waiting hall of the passenger terminal, Qian Duozheng from Shuguang City looked through the Survivor Daily with interest.
The version of Survivor Daily here is completely different from the Dawn City. It mainly reports some news that is interesting to locals. As for the battle situation in Haiya Province and the matters in the River Valley Province, only a few have been mentioned.
As for today.
Almost all newspapers in Golden Gallon Port are focused on the frontline of Mammoth State.
...There are both people, evidence and physical evidence!Shameless executioner Alayan!
Roger, Secretary-General of the Golden Gallon Port Federation, strongly condemned the barbaric behavior of the Imperial Grey Wolf Army, and 100,000 survivors raised signs to protest the authorities' deportation of prisoners of war!
The Governor-General Secretary-General Yodu, who has always refused to comment on the relevant affairs of the Empire, made a rare statement to denounce the imperial crimes. It is not only the stone village that has committed the tragedy, but I don’t know how many of them are invisible to us!
A Chinese teacher from the southern waters who did not want to be named expressed was shocked in an interview: Shame!I will write to my relatives and friends on the Circular Island, and I will go to the representatives to petition!Survivors in the southern waters will never cooperate with cannibalism!
More than a hundred villages were burned down, hundreds of thousands of survivors were expelled, and countless dead during the migration... Tsk tsk, the people of Xilan were cruel to their own people.
Looking at the shocking photo, Qian Duo couldn't help but tut his tongue, but he just tutted his tongue and turned back a new page.
Mammoth State is where he is going in a while, and he is waiting for an hour to fly there.But to be honest, he felt a little upset when he saw the battle here so fiercely.
Ten thousand...
How many tens of thousands are there in Shuguang City now?
Three hundred thousand?
Or half a million?
If the migrant population is counted, it is probably a bit difficult to calculate.
Han Long, who was sitting next to him, raised his eyelids and said casually.
Is it because the chewing bone tribe is not cruel, or the mutants in Jinchuan Province are not cruel... It is rare and strange.
Haha, that's true... But then again, if the alliance does not plan to take action against 20,000 scattered soldiers, I think Lasi will probably be finished.Looking at the comparison of the strength of the two armies on the next page, Qian Duo said casually with a smile.
With the alliance taking action, the Legion may have to end, well... it is indeed not easy to deal with.Han Long answered thoughtfully.
At this moment, a strange voice suddenly came from beside him: He is not finished.
Han Long ignored it, Qian Duo looked at the man who was involved in the topic with interest, and saw a man who looked gentle, elegant and easy-going.
He looks like a noble person, but his outfit is not very valuable.He had a suitcase at his feet, and he looked quite small, and he probably had to go out a long way.
Curious about the locals' opinions, Qian Duo asked curiously: Oh?Do you think he can win even if the league doesn’t take action?
Zaid smiled faintly and said in a very soft voice.
It depends on how you define the winning or losing. If you aim to defeat Alayan, it is no problem for him.But if it aims to target the program proposed by the Federation, he has no chance of winning.
Qian Duoha laughed.
What you said is interesting, but my opinion is contrary to you.If the Gray Wolf Army loses again, the Empire will never be able to turn the tables again, and it is only a matter of time before the collapse occurs.
Zaid shook his head and said clearly.
Our views are not actually conflicting, but the ‘collapse of the empire’ and ‘realization of the Federation Program’ are two different things.
Qian Duo became more and more interested in this guy and said with a smile.
Do you mean Lasi wants to be emperor?But I don’t think this is necessarily a bad thing. Even if it’s feudal here?At least it is much more civilized than the current appearance of eating raw meat and drinking blood... Sorry, what I said is a bit straightforward, but it seems to me, an outsider.
After all, it is a god who can compete with things like the Chewing Bone Tribe, which have been buried in the soil. The place where birds in Honghe Town are not shit may be much more advanced than theirs.
Zaid was not angry, but just smiled faintly.
It is possible for everyone to see that Lasi wants to be an emperor, but you are not the only one who can see that.But unfortunately he didn't have this opportunity. The survivors of the Bharat Province did not need an emperor, or the people here never needed an emperor, but the final result allowed them to get His Majesty... Of course, what they needed was not equality, but people who "can make decisions for me."
Qian Duo raised his eyebrows with interest.
He had done sufficient market research before coming here, especially reading Ms. Han Mingyue's investigation report repeatedly.
What this guy said is completely different from the research results of the Alliance Scientific Research Team, although it is not completely opposite.
Do you think Lasi isn't that person?
Zaid shook his head.
Obviously not.
Qian Duo asked curiously.
Because he was a slave?
Zaid shook his head again.
Of course not.
Qian Duo asked again.
Then why?
Zaid looked at the ceiling and thought for a while.
Because... he wants to be a good emperor.
Qian Duo can't help laughing.
Is there anything wrong with this?
Zaid smiled faintly and did not directly answer the question.
There is a logical paradox on this land, which I will call it...'The mouse cannot become a human theorem', abbreviated as the "Ratman Theorem".Those who want to be a good general will definitely not be a good general, and those who want to be a good emperor will definitely not be a good emperor, even if they just want to be a good person, they will definitely not be a good person.Whether it is Lasi or Wutu, whether it is the young men of the Federation or the old nobles of Wutu, the harder they work and struggle, the more they will go against their ideals.
This seems to be the theory he has compiled. After all, he thought about the name of the broken theory for a long time.
But in order to better understand the market under my feet, Qianduo still continued to listen with an interest: It sounds like a desperate fate.
Isn't that true?
Zeid looked at the wall clock on the wall of the waiting room, and it seemed that there was still some time, so he continued talking.
...The invisible curse entangled everyone on this land, whether it was the Rat or the Moon.Some people realized the source of the curse, red clay, and a city of thousands of pillars, but more people just thought they realized it, but in fact they didn't know anything, so they turned their eyes on red clay and on the thousand pillars.It’s like picking flowers in the mirror, fishing for the moon in the water, and finding a horse in the cowshed.
The only one who can decide for the survivors of the Bharat Province is a perfect 'saint' who strives for excellence at this point, even more pious than the believers of Silver Moon Bay, so they finally got Rowell as they wish... You might say Rowell died a long time ago, but isn't Wutu another Rowell?
He actually never left, and kept cursing the person who buried him in the red soil.Now his children have found new answers, and they are something they have never thought about before, that is, the "equality" you give them.
He lowered his eyebrows and sighed quietly.
Everything seems beautiful, but unfortunately the curse broke out, or the "rat man theorem" came into effect. A mouse who longs to be a good person cannot even be a good mouse.When all the survivors of the Bharat provinces are consciously or unintentionally craving for ‘equality’, they will eventually get something completely opposite.
Qian Duo was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile.
If there is such a perfect saint, let alone you, we also need it... you don't have to say laziness as something unique to you.
Zaid said with a smile, shook his head.
You don’t actually need it, you’re just talking about it, you are completely different from us.Let me give you the simplest example. If it is in the Bharat Province, a group of people who don’t seem serious but do some good things will not please anyone, and they will go to hell.
Are you talking about refuge residents?Qian Duo glanced around, and there were just a few blue jackets nearby, and then said with a smile, "I think the people in Jin Jialun Port also like them."
Zaid whispered.
That's because they haven't left yet... Moreover, you see, the Port of Jingalun seems to have been well transformed and finally got the equality they dreamed of, but in fact they didn't realize that they just finally found the people who 'can make the decision for them', or the group of people who can hold their exhausted souls.
This sounds like saying that the survivors of the Bharat Province are idealists, but the Survivor Daily in the Port of King Gallen also advocates materialism, just like the Alliance.
Qian Duo raised his eyebrows with interest, although he completely disagreed with his point of view.
Your inference is interesting, but there is no basis... In fact, you might as well follow Ms. Han Mingyue and write your inference into a more organized paper and publish it. We look forward to the debate between you.
Zaid suddenly laughed.
That kind of thing makes no sense. Would you write the specific steps of making money in the newspaper?And don't forget the rat-man theorem I mentioned. I don't want to be the first victim of this paradox. There are too many people who will die for it.Time will prove my judgment... My flight is coming, I wish you a pleasant trip.
As he said that, he stood up from the seat with his suitcase, and suddenly he seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Qian Duo with a smile, taking off his hat and paying tribute.
In addition, Mammoth State is indeed a good place, and I am also optimistic about the future there.
Leaving the surprised alliance businessman, Zaid walked to the security checkpoint.He seemed to have had some argument with the people there, but he finally went up.
Qian Duo looked at Han Long beside him and said excitedly.
Damn... This guy has something, but he actually saw that we were going to go to Mammoth State for inspection?Funny guy.
He should ask his name.
Han Long stared at the man's back for a while, and his electronic eyes shook left and right.
I only care about the boss's business... By the way, this person doesn't seem to be optimistic about Lasi?Do we still need to go?
Qian Duoha said with a smile.
It is his point of view that he doesn't like. There are many people in this world who have different opinions from us. Don't be influenced by the nonsense of a passerby.What's more, our views are not all the opposite. At least he is optimistic about Mammoth State, which is the same as mine.
If Liszt Group wants to keep up with the trend of the times, it must expand its overseas business like Baiyue Company and join the new supply chain that is being formed.
In the future, the alliance's commodities will no longer be produced in the two industrial areas, Dawn City and Giant Rock City. The invisible logistics network will connect all the backward and advanced productivity in the sticky community.
However, although expanding the business is key, controlling risks is even more critical.
And this is why Liszt asked him to go to Mammoth City, but he placed his first stop at Golden Gallon Port.Only nouveau riche only focuses on yields.
Before considering the profit, he has to find a way out.
