Chapter 264: Crossing the River and Demolishing the Bridge
Previously, the Samani and their people had been carefully controlling the speed of the city's development in order to better control the entire steel city, which resulted in a large number of players not getting jobs, and those who did not get jobs could only live in shanty towns full of odors and garbage, relying on the little food and water distributed by the mutual aid society every day, barely half-starved - although they didn't have to deal with the mutated creatures who ate people outside the city walls, but such a day was definitely comfortable.
To put it bluntly, this model is no different from the situation in the shelter, but the reason why there are so many unemployed people in the shelter is because of the high degree of mechanization and the severe shortage of resources and space, which makes the shelter official unable to provide enough jobs for everyone.
But it's different in the wasteland, where everything is created by the player's own hands.
Qi Lin found that in the Steel City, there are many fewer factories and cultivated land than those cities established by big conglomerates - the reason why the Steel City can develop so quickly is completely dependent on the large number of materials left in the military port area in the old era, in fact, even if Qi Lin does not appear, when these materials are consumed, and the new output cannot meet the players in the city, when the green and yellow are not connected, there will naturally be turmoil in the Steel City.
At that time, it was not just a matter of overthrowing a mutual aid leader like Saman......
……
Similar to Qi Lin, Cheng Yanqiu and Aya Kui are also doing the same thing, more and more players have begun to declare their allegiance to the Holy Maiden, and even many people who were originally just hiding at home and watching have also gone out of the house and joined the ranks of the loyalists.
Now, even if those cardinals are resurrected, it is estimated that they will be immediately torn to pieces by these emotional players in the city.
All this is the result of their own burial, and in their mansions, people have found too many "incriminating evidence", and these "incriminating evidence" are all shocking.
Originally, these cardinals, in the eyes of the people, were the closest servants to the Lord God, loyal, kind, and merciful...... And now, these adjectives seem to be the best irony for their crimes.
In the cathedral of the old man Saman alone, more than a dozen young girls were rescued, the youngest of whom was only eleven years old.
Oh, in addition to a dozen young girls, there are also three young men in women's clothes with beautiful faces......
In the basement of another cardinal's mansion, a crucified and dying cook was found only because he had accidentally salted too much salt in the food he had cooked the night before.
There were also stacks of accounts that had not had time to be destroyed, and mountains of wealth hidden in small coffers......
For these rescued people, Qi Lin tried to find a place for them to settle down temporarily, and as for those huge amounts of property, they were sealed on the spot, and after the entire Steel City was settled, he would deal with them separately.
Qi Lin and the three of them were very weak, but after having the first batch of supporters, these people scattered, and soon, the second and third groups of supporters also appeared...... While the city still seems to be in chaos, the imprint of the old Mutual Aid Society is rapidly being erased, and new flags are being erected everywhere.
A silver sword emblem replaced the Libra - the longsword was an ornament that a cardinal hung on the wall of the living room of the mansion, but after being manipulated by Ayakui to decapitate the heads of six people who took advantage of the chaos to kill and rob in a row, it was worshipped as a symbol of sainthood by a group of fanatical believers.
……
……
The whole city is undergoing drastic changes, except, of course, the West End.
At this time, no matter how stupid Lei Kui was, he found that something was wrong.
"What's going on, what's going on, go and call me Cheng Yanqiu and that 9527!" Requi slammed his fist on the table and roared.
However, in the face of his request, the signal soldier on one side could only say weakly: "Commander...... That, Cheng Shao sent a message just now, saying that the Steel City has been captured...... Also, here's what the scout detectives heard, and now ......"
The Signal Soldier reported the situation in the city with trepidation, but every time he spoke, Reque's face became more ugly.
"Grass, we've all been tricked!"
After knowing what Qi Lin had done, Lei Kui's heart could be regarded as half cold, no matter how he guessed, he couldn't guess that Qi Lin would come to such a hand.
In this way, Qi Lin almost got a complete steel city and more than 100,000 believers, as for what kind of "holy woman" it was, it was just a cover that was pushed onto the table to attract people's attention.
At the most critical time, Lei Kui and his troops are no longer of any use, to put it bluntly, their 2,000 people are just used to feint, and Qi Lin and a few of them are the "main force" this time.
After the Steel City completely falls into the hands of Qi Lin, although Qi Lin will still choose to cooperate with the Consortium Alliance, at that time, the representatives of the Consortium Alliance will only be Cheng Yanqiu and the Cheng Consortium behind him, not him Lei Kui.
Lei Kui naturally understood how much the forces behind him had spent for him to win the position of this commander, and now, all of this was all in vain.
No, no, if it's just a waste, in the end, it's a wedding dress for someone else.
Thinking of this, Lei Kui felt his lungs explode.
"This bastard dares to cross the river and tear down the bridge! No way! We can't just forget it, let the soldiers below be ready for battle, we have to continue the attack, we can't cheapen that kid for nothing! ”
"All armored vehicles and trucks are filled with fuel, and all the remaining ammunition is distributed!"
"Power armor takes the lead! Everyone keep up and attack the Iron City in depth! ”
……
……
On the other side, Qi Lin selected more than a dozen "temporary agents" among the players, and asked them to take a group of players to be responsible for rectifying the order of the entire block, while he himself rushed directly to the West District.
Qi Lin knew that it was naturally impossible for Lei Kui to give up the Steel City, and after finding out that he was being used, the embarrassed and angry Lei Kui would definitely not be willing to withdraw like this, and this relatively intact army became a problem that Qi Lin had to solve at the moment.
It is naturally impossible to wipe out all these 2,000 people, but if Lei Kui "dies unexpectedly", all the problems will be solved - even if Cheng Yanqiu cannot directly command this force, it is still possible to let them stand by before the next commander arrives.
As for whether the new commander will succeed in taking office...... Then it depends on Qi Lin's mood.
