Chapter 355 The monk sees the lotus, the devil sees the claws
Gao Zhengwen returned with no success, feeling quite helpless and feeling vaguely worried about the aftermath of the disaster.
When Ren Zhonggang followed Yang Bingzhong to Chrome Carbon Town, he was a low-level nobody who was not even qualified to have contact with Gao Zhengwen.
Later, Ren Zhong replaced Yang Bingzhong and got the opportunity to be on an equal footing with Gao Zhengwen, the real controller of Chrome Carbon Town.
At that time, in the eyes of Gao Zhengwen, he was not even considered a rookie. He was just a lucky player who picked up idiot Yang Bingzhong's lifetime accumulation for nothing.
Gao Zhengwen even felt that if he had a rookie opponent, he would not be able to expand his power and achieve true unification in the town.
However, the heavy responsibility soon emerged within the system of Amethyst Mining, forcing Gao Zhengwen to quickly change his mind and re-examine this country where he had clearly gained half of the control of the prosperous Chromium Carbon Town, but was still stuck in the former backwaters.
The strange neighbor in Spark Town who refuses to move.
What happened next was completely beyond Gao Zhengwen's expectations.
Ren Zhong rose to prominence at a rapid pace, and quickly became a ruthless character that made his neck feel sore even when he looked up.
Although Ren Zhong has rarely interacted with Chromium Carbon Mining in person, and the friendship between the two is akin to acquaintance, Gao Zhengwen has basically no sense of presence at Ren Zhong, but Gao Zhongwen pays more attention to Ren Zhong than anyone else.
develop.
Mr. Gao is more aware of every step Ren Zhong takes than most people on Yuanxing, and is more deeply afraid of it.
You don’t know if you don’t look at it, but the more you look at it, the more shocked you become.
Because of this, when the Seven Towns Alliance tried to besiege Chrome Carbon Town, Gao Zhengwen generously lent three thousand soldiers without contacting Ren Zhong personally.
The reason is simple. He knew from the beginning that Ren Zhong would never give up on Chromium Carbon Town, and the possibility of winning was not small.
The current results only proved his original guess.
But he didn't expect that the burden of responsibility would be so huge. Not only did he plan to launch a full-scale counterattack, he also gave up his rhetoric of resolving the battle in three days.
Gao Zhengwen thought this was nonsense.
On the Source Star, regardless of any town, there is an essential difference between defense and offense.
Defending a city is always easier than attacking it.
Especially for the eight major towns that serve as human walls for Zhansha County, the difference between offense and defense is even greater than that of ordinary towns.
Unlike Liaoyuan County, which is located in a desolate and remote area, Huaihai City, where Zhansha County is located, is located in the center of First Continent.
The terrain here is mostly plain, rich in products, and the transportation is very developed.
Thanks to these innate conditions, the development of Huaihai City has been far stronger than that of Yangsheng City "since ancient times".
The population density is higher, the industrial chains in all aspects are more mature, and there are more large enterprises.
The development of towns in the area is far stronger than that in Yangsheng City.
Regardless of the quantity or quality of the population, the two areas are not at the same level at all.
But here is the wonderful situation, the larger population does not put pressure on the reproduction of the beasts.
On the contrary, the number of beasts here is larger, the average level is higher, and they are more mobile. From time to time, ferocious beast raids will occur in populated areas.
The frequency of beast tide outbreaks in Huaihai City is much higher than that in the Northwest Zone of First Continent where Yangsheng City is located.
Against this background, Zhanshaba Town and other similar satellite towns were born.
The satellite town gathered and multiplied a large number of waste people, which naturally gave birth to more scavengers, and the output of hunting resources in various regions continued to increase.
But something even more amazing happened. After more scavengers appeared in the wild, not only did they not make the beasts extinct, but more and more beasts were naturally bred outside, so that now there are more and more beasts in any hunting mining area in Chromium Carbon Town.
The output is much stronger than that of the abandoned mine in Spark Town.
You know, the abandoned mine pit was once famous all over the world.
Against this historical background, the deserters in Zhanshaba Town are well-tested and have extremely rich combat experience.
This is a soft power background, but after all, there are also a large number of Zhansha County deserters in the Eastern Expeditionary Army. It stands to reason that Ren Zhong has also reaped this demographic dividend.
But the real problem lies in the hard power of each town.
Including Chrome Carbon Town, the governments of the eight towns in Zhansha used abundant tax revenue and subsidies from the county to build a large number of urban defense fortifications.
After all, the Eight Towns are tasked with serving as a city wall for the county, and they cannot be easily breached by a tide of beasts every two days.
If you want a horse to run fast, you must give it grass to eat.
These city fortifications, originally planned to deal with the beast tide, were incredibly lethal, extremely stable, and had extremely sufficient ammunition reserves.
Just like this battle in Chromium Carbon Town, if the mayor was willing to hand over control of the city's fortifications, so many people would not have to die in Spark Town, and it would not even need reinforcements to defend it.
The Seven Towns Alliance is not an outsider like Ren Zhong. It has been operating in the local area for many years and has long been intertwined and deeply rooted.
The business owners in each town will definitely drag the mayor into trouble.
Gao Zhengwen firmly believes in this.
In fact, if it weren't for the existence of heavy responsibility, if Zhansha Bazhen were to form a complete alliance, Gao Zhengwen should be the leader.
The mayor of Chromium Carbon Town also takes orders from him in a sense.
When he borrowed 3,000 troops, he chose to let the mayor sit back and watch. In essence, he was hedging his bets.
He won't suffer any loss if he wins.
What happened later shocked him. He didn't expect that the Spark Army's combat effectiveness was so powerful, its equipment superiority was so great, and its mobility was so amazing that even after Ren Zhong executed the mayor, Gao Zhengwen didn't dare to fart.
In short, the past is past, what matters is the future.
Gao Zhengwen was determined that the arduous counterattack would be forced to face the real city defense force.
"This battle will not be easy, and I don't know how he plans to fight it."
Gao Zhengwen shook his head, got on the wheeled car and quickly left the resource recycling square.
At this time, Ren Zhong did not watch Gao Zhengwen away, but returned to his desk and picked up the old-fashioned phone.
The voice that rang on the phone was Ying Hao's.
Ying Hao: "Shenzhen News Group did not find the wrong person when they asked you for help. The association was able to quickly restore basic call capabilities in such a short period of time, which is beyond my expectation. You are indeed extraordinary for the heavy responsibility."
The sound in the earpiece was a bit hoarse. It wasn't that Ying Hao was sick, it was purely signal interference, which caused the earpiece to hiss from time to time.
Ren Zhong smiled and said: "The number of orbiting satellites is still not enough, global coverage cannot be achieved, and the information transmission capability is far from up to standard. President, you have oversold us."
"This is not your problem, it is the problem of Shenzhen Xun Group and me. My production capacity has not kept up, and the performance of the first-generation satellite has not met the standards. Just like now, I am in Shangyuanjing City and can directly connect to the satellite.
We have to wait until there are just a few satellites connected in series, and there is just one satellite above your head before I can call you. I will be disconnected in about ten minutes. Okay, time is tight, I have to keep my story short."
"Well, President, please tell me."
"Before I called you, someone had actually repeated to me what you said at the war mobilization rally."
"Oh? President, what do you think?"
"If it were in the past, your speech would have been very dangerous. Once the Internet determines your danger, I'm afraid I won't even be able to protect you."
Ren Zhong pretended to be panicked, "Ah? Is that so?"
"But things are different now. I have to admit that although the Internet knows everything, it is too conservative. I have my own opinion."
Ren Zhong: "President, please speak."
"You are very cunning and very good at playing with human nature. Your methods amaze me. This is indeed the latest slavery method promoted by you and the Tanggu Group. Under your stimulation, Huangren can burst out with stronger potential,
The speed of survival of the fittest will also be greatly accelerated."
Ren Zhong: "Thank you, President, for your approval."
Ying Hao: "I will clarify it for you at the association and help you dispel some people's doubts. This shouldn't be difficult."
Ren Zhong chuckled: "I'm extremely grateful."
There is an old poem saying that when viewed from the side, there are ridges and peaks on the side, with different heights from near to far.
Faced with the same thing, even the same person will come to different conclusions when looking at it from different angles, so it is reasonable for different people to have completely opposite perceptions.
Ren Zhong was not surprised by Ying Hao's "misjudgment".
This is the result of his guidance.
He accurately grasped the thinking of high-level Source Star citizens, including Ying Hao.
The kind of person you are is the same kind of person you see in others.
Getting the answer from Ying Hao at this time only verified his previous deduction.
Ying Hao: "In addition, I will briefly tell you about the current situation in Yuanjing City and around the world. Please listen carefully."
