This Game Is Too Realistic Chapter 782: Rivers of blood

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of this game is too real!

The raging flames climbed up to the wooden eaves, illuminating the dazed and stunned faces.

The rising black smoke was like a homeless ghost, and the crackling cry was particularly conspicuous in the silence of the crowd. This is the southwest corner of Mammoth State, a small village called "Stone Village"...or it used to be called that.

Most of the people living here are free citizens of the empire.

However, the empire is the opposite of other areas in the wasteland. The free people here are not something to be proud of.

Since most of the fertile land along the river was in the hands of the nobles, most free people lived in poverty even if they had land to farm.

If the average serf had to eat red soil six times a week, then the freedmen might have to eat seven or eight times, basically maintaining a state of half-death.

Of course, except for those who can survive in or near settlements.

The same goes for Stone Village. Since it is far away from the Tasang River and there are no small rivers or lakes nearby, the land is not easy to cultivate, so most of the villagers just make ends meet.

Guys like these who live like weeds really can’t squeeze out much profit, and the empire generally doesn’t bother to pay attention to them. Apart from collecting taxes, they usually just let them fend for themselves.

Of course, the tolerance of this gift is limited to ordinary times.

Going five or six miles south from Shitou Village, you can see the boundary monument of Mazhou. However, it was only these five or six miles that the fire of "Strong Walls and Clear Fields" burned here...

At the entrance of Stone Village, an old man over fifty sat slumped on the ground, looking up at the tall centurion, crying with snot and tears.

"Sir, we have been living here for many years, and you set this place on fire. I, where do we live... The centurion looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly.

“Next door is Mazhou, and further south is Huzhou. It has legs like yours. As long as you don’t go north, you can go wherever you like.”

The old man begged and said.

"Yes, but...how can we live without land."

"How to live?" The centurion sneered, looking down at the old man lying on the ground, and said in a sarcastic tone, "Can't you just find a manor and sell yourself... Don't be special. Crying and crying, you old thing has reached your age and it’s time to go to the grave.”

Seeing the old man looking at him blankly, the centurion thought that he was indeed not very particular about what he said, so he softened his tone slightly and said.

"Okay, there are bandits here. It's for your own good to let you go. Don't be so ungrateful. I'll give you time to pack your things. If nothing happens, get out of here."

"Bandit trouble?! But, but, those Yue tribe people didn't care about us..."

Seeing the centurion taking steps to leave, the stunned old man suddenly became anxious. For a moment, he kept talking, but he forgot about the identity of the military master in front of him, and even more about the Yue people’s views on the empire. Say what it means.

The centurion actually stopped when he heard this, and looked at the old man up and down with squinted eyes, his eyes slightly unkind.

"Have they been here?"

Not only was the centurion squinting at the old man, but the soldiers on the side also put their hands on the Ripper rifle. Sensing something was wrong in the atmosphere, the old man was frightened and stammered for a moment.

"I..." The centurion stared at him.

"Why not send a message to a nearby outpost?"

"What, what outpost?"

Big beads of sweat oozed from the old man's forehead. Before he could explain, the centurion waved his hand to the soldier next to him.

"Take it back for trial."

The two soldiers strode forward, each grabbed the old man by one shoulder, and regardless of the latter's screams like a slaughtered pig, they carried him onto the cart like an animal.

The young men in the village wanted to go up and stop them, but they were stared at by the murderous eyes and did not dare to move forward. They could only watch the village elders being taken away...

Similar scenes not only happened in Stone Village, but also happened in other places. Even worse.

More than 50,000 gray wolf troops marched into the Mammoth State occupied by the rebels with great momentum, and they made plans from top to bottom to avenge their past humiliation.

While Alaya sent out scouts to detect the movements of the resistance forces, he steadily opened up the front line. At the same time, he sent small groups of troops along the border to advance his strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country.

Not only the old man who was suspected of having contact with the Resistance Army was taken away.

There were also men, women, children, and animals kept in barns who had no idea what was going on. These imperial soldiers did not even let go of the eggs laid by the hens.

Of course, not all villages are so docile and obedient. After all, given the ecological conditions of Borneo Province, it will take some skills to withstand the land annexation by the nobles.

Some indignant young men brought out dung forks, bows and arrows, blunderbuss and even cannons, trying to confront the empire's gray wolf army.

However, their righteous indignation not only failed to scare away the gray wolves of the empire, but instead brought death to themselves and their families.

Although the Gray Wolf Army was almost drowned by the Alliance into the Eternal River when they were outside the city of Golden Gallen Port, it was not a problem for them to deal with a group of half-clothed poor men. With just one charge, the soldiers killed this group of weeds that didn't know the heights of the sky, and the blood flowed into rivers.

And once the bayonet sees red, things will not end so well.

What's more, today's Gray Wolf Army has been riddled with holes by the Tiger Army and Black Panther Army. Both their fighting will and discipline are far inferior to half a year ago... Although they were also half a year ago. It's not much better.

After venting their fury on the weak ones who survived, a group of gray wolves who had had enough fun lifted up their pants, rewarded the "captives", and threw their heads on the cart, treating them as the heads of rebels. I took it back to the camp to take credit.

On the hundreds of kilometers of state border between Mammoth State and Maryland, the burning flames were like a long snake, devouring one village after another.

The beast-like behavior is just like the wolf crying and ghost howling on the Shifeng Mountain. Not even more concessions...

"······These beasts!"

At the edge of the dark forest, Ackerman stared at the soldiers leaving the ruins, with blazing anger in his eyes.

When the long-haired woman was dragged into the cowshed, he thought of his mother...

The same goes for the soldiers who followed him. Everyone was clutching the rifles in their hands, eager to rush up and eat the centurion alive.

Especially the young man named Udi, if his companions hadn't pulled him, he might have rushed forward. "There are too many of them..." We only have ten people, so we are no match for them. ”

Taking a deep breath to calm down, Ackerman said in a deep voice.

"Lasi told us that if we want to defeat opponents who are much stronger than us, we must not only have the courage to fight without fear of death, but also learn to use our brains."

A tall boy with freckles looked at him and asked in a low voice.

"What should we do?"

"You take Udi with you, and you, you..."

Ackerman counted out five local recruits and handed them to the veteran who had fought all the way from Huzhou. He lowered his voice and continued to instruct, "Go north and tell the villagers about the empire. When the people come, they kill everyone they see. If they don’t want to die, they run north.”

"It's no use even if they go there," Udi interjected and whispered, "It's all flooded there..."

"It's only temporarily flooded. The flood season has passed and winter will soon come... When spring comes, the flooded land will be the most fertile. Lord Lacy will allocate the land to the nobles. Seed." Ackerman said without hesitation.

The land along the Tasang River that originally belonged to the nobles has been annexed and can be used to resettle these displaced villagers once the flood season is over.

Those lands are far more fertile than here, and Lacy 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.

When they heard about the land division, the eyes of the two young men lit up, including Udi.

His village is outside Mammoth City, which is the territory of the nobles. His parents had farmed the land for the nobles all their lives and did not have any land of their own. Now someone was willing to give them the nobles' manors and plantations. They were so excited that they wanted to cheer.

Only a few veterans from Huzhou looked at their innocent appearance and smiled. Farming?

There's no way out of that thing.

They have suffered enough from the hardships of farming in the mountains and valleys of Huzhou. They can only live a good life while carrying guns.

The freckled face frowned slightly and looked at Ackerman and asked. "Why do those villagers believe us?"

"Go there to pick up some things and bring them to them. Believe it or not, it's up to them. We only save what we can."

Ackerman pointed to the ruins of the village not far away, motioning for him to go there to pick up some physical evidence, and then continued in a lowered voice.

"It should be these villages today. The gray wolves don't dare to walk at night, but it's hard to say after dawn. You'd better move faster and finish everything before dawn..." ··Remember, all villages within half a day’s walk must be notified!”

The six young men nodded solemnly, got into the bushes on the side and carefully moved towards the village, and disappeared in a flash.

As for Ackerman, he took the remaining three people and followed the retreating Hundreds of Gray Wolf Army, trying to find their "regiment headquarters."

If you are lucky, you might be able to find a chance to **** them a few times!

At the same time, on the other side, at the headquarters of the Gray Wolf Army, General Alaya looked at the sand table expressionlessly, his thoughts drifting away unconsciously along with the chess pieces on the sand table.

I still remember that at the beginning of the year, he was still the God of War revered by thousands of people.

In just six months, those who admired him regarded him as a shame to the empire and stepped hard into the sewer.

As high as those people praised him at the time, they threw him down as hard as they could later. But it was precisely because of that incident that he completely woke up——

This group of unruly people does not deserve his sympathy.

He shouldn't treat them as human beings, even though he didn't care much about them before.

To this day, he still will not forget the injustice he suffered in Golden Gallen Port. Those poor people who lived inside and outside killed his scouts, sold his intelligence, and deliberately destroyed the trenches for a few silver coins. When the grave was being dug, his soldiers were unable to reach out of the trench with their hands above their heads.

There are also reeds along the Everliu River.

Those guys would rather be shot and drowned than be dogs of the Alliance, but they refuse to stay in the empire and be good people.

He knows better than anyone else that if he gives an order like this, the people below him will definitely use "their own methods" to do whatever they want.

But so what?

Rather than leaving this bunch of pigs to hold back on the front line, intentionally causing harm and doing a disservice, it would be better to use their blood to scare those who dare to go against the empire.

At this time, the officer in charge of clearing the country walked into the tent, looked at General Alaya standing in front of the map, saluted respectfully, and reported.

"Sir, 80% of the Moon Clan Resistance Army has been here."

"They will definitely come, there is nothing surprising. You will check in a moment to find out who has relatives in the Resistance Army, whether they are distant relatives or close relatives, take them out to form a separate team, I will keep them for use."

Staring at Mammoth City on the map, Alaya continued expressionlessly.

"That Lacy is an officer trained by the Alliance, and the people who left Golden Gallen Port with him were also trained by the Alliance. What this group of people are best at is intersecting, infiltrating, breaking them into parts, and using less to defeat more... ···In the Sunset Province and the River Valley Province, those people relied on these tricks to make the Weiland people suffer a lot."

The officer looked condensed and said in a low voice.

"If this is the case, I'm afraid this battle won't be easy."

"I'm afraid?" Alai laughed loudly, curled up the corner of his mouth and continued, "Don't expect a quick victory. It will take at least three or four months to completely wipe out them. If they want to fight guerrillas, let them go. They fight, we set up our formation-"

Before he finished speaking, there was an explosion in the distance.

The two people in the tent were stunned. Alaya's expression changed first, and he hurried out of the tent and looked in the direction of the sound.

The officer followed him out of the camp, and then heard the second explosion from afar. The officer's face changed slightly and he said tremblingly.

“155mm!”

League’s 155!

The impression left by that thing on him was so unforgettable that he would never forget the buzzing feeling in his head.

"You don't need to talk nonsense..." Alaya cursed, took off the walkie-talkie hanging on his shoulder and roared.

The first few shells were just "school shots"!

There must be guerrilla scouts and communication radio stations near the troops that were shelled, reporting the impact points of the bombs! The truth is exactly what Alaya thought.

Soon the boiling sound of artillery exploded on the position of the 7000th Regiment of the 10000th Regiment, giving the Gray Wolf Army a blow to the head that had originally had high morale.

Due to insufficient digging of anti-artillery fortifications, the entire thousand-man team suffered heavy casualties. Only 60% of them escaped from the position and were rescued by the 6,000-man team who came for reinforcements.

The first confrontation between the Gray Wolf Army and the Moon Clan Resistance Army ended with the latter's small victory, but the victory or defeat of just one battle was not enough to reverse the latter's disadvantage.

The military strength gap between the two sides is still huge.

Alaya has an army of 50,000 men at his disposal, and it is an elite division equipped with Valantian equipment. Its chief instructor is McClun, the famous general of the Eastern Legion.

As for Lacy, although he relied on a trick of "flooded army" to destroy the Mammoth State local army, allowing the resistance army to face the Gray Wolf Army's attack intact, but even so, his men could The total number of troops used was just over 20,000, and more than half of them were new recruits.

Although the residents of Golden Gallon Port and even Fries Port have donated tens of millions of silver coins to the Yue Clan Resistance Army, if the latter cannot win on the battlefield, all ideals will ultimately be empty talk... ·

Jinggallen Port, the waiting hall of the passenger terminal. Qian Duo from Shuguang City was looking through the "Survivor Daily" in his hand with great interest.

The survivor daily here is completely different from the version in Auroville City. It mainly reports some news that is of interest to the locals. As for the war situation in the Haiya Province and the things in the River Valley Province, it only mentions a few things.

As for today.

Nearly all the newspapers in King Gallon focused on the Mammoth State's front lines. 【...···There are all human and material evidences! Shameless executioner Alaya! 】

[Roger, Secretary-General of the Golden Gallen Port Federation, strongly condemned the barbaric acts of the Imperial Gray Wolf Army. One hundred thousand survivors held up placards to protest against the authorities' deportation of prisoners of war! 】

[Yodu, the Secretary-General of the Governor-General, who has always refused to express opinions on empire-related affairs, made a rare speech and denounced the empire's crimes. "It's not just Stone Village that has suffered tragedies, there are countless more that we can't see!"]

[A Chinese teacher who did not want to be named and came from the Southern Sea expressed shock in an interview: "Shame! I will write to my relatives and friends on the round island, and I will go to the representative meeting to petition! The Southern Sea Survivors will never cooperate with cannibals!"]

"More than a hundred villages were burned down, hundreds of thousands of survivors were expelled, and countless people died during the migration...Tsk, tsk, these Xilan people are quite cruel to their own people."

Looking at the shocking photo, Qian Duo couldn't help but click his tongue, but he just clicked his tongue and turned to a new page.

Mammoth State is where he will be going soon, and he is waiting for a flight to go there in an hour. But to be honest, seeing how tragic the fighting situation here was, he felt a little nervous.

One hundred thousand people·······

How many thousands are there in Dawn City now? Three hundred thousand?

Or five hundred thousand?

If we include the floating population, it would be a bit difficult to calculate.

Han Long, who was sitting next to him, raised his eyelids and said casually.

"Is it the bone-chewing tribe that is not ruthless, or the mutants from Jinchuan Province are not ruthless... It's rare but weird."

"Haha, that's true... But having said that, if the alliance doesn't plan to take action with 50,000 regular troops against 20,000 stragglers, I think this Laxi will probably be doomed." After looking at it, On a page comparing the strength of the two armies, Qian Duo said this casually with a smile.

"If the alliance takes action, the legion will probably have to come to an end. Well... it's really not easy to handle." Han Long added thoughtfully.

At this moment, a strange voice suddenly came from beside me. "He can't be finished."

Han Long ignored him, while Qian Duo looked at the person who interrupted the conversation with interest. He saw a man who looked gentle, elegant and easy-going.

He looks like a man of distinguished status, but his outfit is not very valuable. There was a suitcase at his feet, and it looked quite big. It was probably going to go a long way.

Curious about what the locals thought, Qian Duo asked curiously. "Oh? Do you think he can win even if the alliance doesn't take action?" Zaid said with a faint smile.

"It depends on how you define winning or losing. If the goal is to defeat Alaya, it will be no problem for him. But if the goal is to defeat the program proposed by the Federation, he has no chance of winning.

Qian Duo laughed.

"What you said is very interesting, but my opinion is the opposite of yours. If the Gray Wolf Army loses again, the empire will never be able to make a comeback, and collapse will only be a matter of time."

Zeid shook his head and spoke clearly.

"You mean Lacy wants to be the emperor? But I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing. Even if it's a little feudal here? At least it's more civilized than the current situation of drinking blood... ·Sorry, I said it a bit directly, but it seems like that to an outsider like me."

After all, they are immortals who can compete with things like the Bone Chewing Tribe that have been buried in the soil. The barren place in Red River Town may be much more advanced than them.

Zayd was not angry, he just smiled lightly and said.

"Everyone can see that Lashi wants to be the emperor, and you are not the only one who can see it. But it is a pity that he does not have this opportunity. The survivors of Borneo Province do not need an emperor, or the people here need it. He was never the emperor, but the final result allowed them to get His Majesty... Of course, what they need is not equality, but someone who "can make decisions for me."

Qian Duo raised his eyebrows with interest.

He did thorough market research before coming here, especially after reading Ms. Han Mingyue's survey report repeatedly. What this guy said is completely different from the research results of the alliance scientific expedition team, although it is not completely opposite. "Don't you think Lacy is that person?"

Zeid shook his head. "Obviously not." Qian Duo curiously asked.

"Because he was born a slave?" Zaid shook his head again. "Of course not." Qian Duo asked again. "Then why?"

Zeid looked at the ceiling and thought for a while. "Because...he wants to be a good emperor."

Qian Duo couldn't help laughing.

"What's wrong with this?"

Zeid smiled lightly and did not answer the question directly.

"There is a logical paradox in this land. Let me call it..."The Rat Man Theorem", or the "Rat Man Theorem" for short. Those who want to be good generals must become Without being a good general, a person who wants to be a good emperor will definitely not be a good emperor, even if he just wants to be a good person, he will definitely not be able to be a good general. Whether it is Lashi or Wu Tuo, whether it is a young man from the Federation or Wu Tuo's old nobleman, they are getting more and more. It’s hard work. The more you struggle, the more you will run counter to your ideals.”

This looks like a theory he made up. After all, he has been thinking about the name of this theory for a long time.

But in order to better understand the market at his feet, Qian Duo continued to listen with interest. "Sounds like a hopeless fate."

"Isn't it?"

Zeid glanced at the clock on the wall in the waiting room. It seemed that there was still some time, so he continued talking eloquently.

"...The invisible curse haunts everyone on this land, whether it is the rat tribe or the moon tribe. Some people realize the source of the curse, which is the red earth and the city of a thousand pillars. , but more people just think they have realized it, but in fact they don’t understand anything, so they focus on the red soil and the thousand pillars. It’s like picking flowers in the mirror, fishing for the moon in the water, and going to the cow Looking for a horse in the shed."

"The only person who can make decisions for the survivors of Borneo Province is a perfect "saint". They strive for excellence at this point and are even more pious than the believers in Silver Moon Bay, so they finally got what they wanted. Got Rowell... You might say that Rowell died a long time ago, but isn't that Wu Tuo another Rowell?"

"In fact, he never left. He has been cursing the people who buried him in the red soil. Now his children have found a new answer, and it is something they have never thought of before, that is, you Give them "equality". ”

He lowered his eyebrows and sighed quietly.

"Everything seemed beautiful, but unfortunately the curse broke out, or the "Rat Man Theorem" took effect - a mouse who longed to be a good person could not even be a good mouse. When all the survivors of Borneo Province When people yearn for "equality" consciously or unconsciously, they will eventually get something completely opposite to it."

Qian Duo was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile.

"If there were such a perfect saint, let alone you, we would also need... You don't have to say laziness is something unique to you.

Zaid smiled and shook his head.

"You don't actually need it, you are just talking. You are completely different from us. Let me give you the simplest example. If it is in Borneo Province, a group of people may not look serious, but in general People who say they have done some good deeds are not liked by anyone and will go to hell."

"Are you talking about the residents of the shelter?" Qian Duo took a look around, and there happened to be a few blue coats nearby, and then said with a smile, "I think the people in Golden Gallon Port also like them quite a lot."

Zaid said softly.

"That's because they haven't left yet... Moreover, you see that Golden Gallon Port seems to have been transformed well, and it seems that they finally got the equality they dreamed of, but in fact they didn't realize that they just finally They have found people who "can make decisions for them", or in other words, a group of people who can rest their exhausted souls."

This sounds like saying that the survivors in Borneo are all idealists, but the "Survivor Daily" in Golden Gallen Port advocates materialism, just like the Alliance.

Qian Duo raised his eyebrows with interest, although he didn't agree with his point of view at all.

"Your inference is interesting, but without any basis... In fact, you might as well follow Ms. Han Mingyue's example and write your inference into a more organized paper and publish it. We look forward to the debate between you. ”

Zayd suddenly laughed.

"That kind of thing makes no sense. Will you write the specific steps to make money in a newspaper? And don't forget the Rat Man Theorem I mentioned. I don't want to be the first victim of this paradox. Too many people will die for it. Time will prove my judgment... My flight is about to arrive, I wish you a pleasant journey."

As he spoke, he picked up his suitcase and stood up from his seat. Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he looked at Qian Duo with a smile and took off his hat.

"In addition, Mammoth State is indeed a good place, and I am also optimistic about the future there."

Leaving the alliance businessman with a surprised look on his face, Zaid walked to the security checkpoint. There seemed to be some argument between him and the people there, but he finally went up.

Qian Duo looked at Han Long aside and said excitedly.

"Holy shit...this guy has something. He actually saw that we were going to Mammoth State for inspection?" Interesting guy.

He should have asked for his name.

Han Long stared at the man's back for a while, his electronic eyes swaying left and right.

"I only care about the boss's business... Having said that, this person doesn't seem to think highly of Lacy? Do we still need to go?"

Qian Duo laughed and said.

"It is his opinion that he is not optimistic about it. There are many people in this world who have different opinions from us. Don't let a passerby's **** affect your judgment. What's more, our opinions are not all opposite, at least. He is optimistic about Mammoth State, which is the same as me."

If Lister 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 taking shape.

In the future, the products of the Alliance will no longer be produced only in the two industrial zones of Dawn City and Boulder City. The invisible logistics network will connect all the backward and advanced productivity in the Sticky Community.

However, although business expansion is critical, risk control is even more critical.

And this is why Liszt asked him to go to Mammoth City, but he put his first stop at Golden Gallon Harbor. Only the nouveau riche only focus on the rate of return.

Before considering the benefits, he must first find a way out.
