Chapter 96: Celebrities: I am the most handsome in the village (Silver Alliance)
Seeing that the battle situation on the front line had stabilized and that the soldiers could cope with the coming scenes even if he was not around, Tang Zheng left the front line.
The recruitment of survivors in Chasing Light City must begin immediately.
In the past few days, for some reason, Tang Zheng always felt that something was going to happen.
The construction in the city needs to be accelerated. Tang Zheng still feels that it is too slow to rely solely on the engineering troops.
He wanted to promote the City of Chasing Light, but he always felt that although the current City of Chasing Light was well constructed, its popularity was too small, and in an area covered by alliance forces, few people would buy their account.
If this publicity is not done well, the first shot will not be successful, and subsequent recruitment may not be successful.
Therefore, Tang Zheng has not made publicity for a long time. He is going to find a larger team of survivors to see if he can bring them to Chasing Light City.
Just when Tang Zheng was about to go out to search, guard platoon leader Ji Yuntian ran over to report.
"General, something happened over there at the Fifth Company."
"What happened?"
"Just when you were commanding the battle, the Fifth Company reported a situation, but seeing that you were too busy at the time, you didn't have time to say it."
"Tell me now, it's not a trick."
"That's not the case. It's just that the Fifth Company took a mission and went to Hezhou City in Lianghe Province to fight with another group of mercenaries. After winning the battle, they found that the people who hired them wanted to rob the population. Michael from the Fifth Company couldn't see it.
I'm used to it, so I'll report it to you. Because you are really busy and don't have time, we took action without authorization and got into trouble once. The leader over there ran away and used the radio to say a lot of bad things about the fifth company. Now this umbrella mercenary's
It has a bit of a bad reputation.”
Tang Zheng snorted, thinking it was something big.
Fifth Company's actions were relatively free to begin with, and he gave Michael great authority. As long as he didn't do anything harmful to nature, he wouldn't care about it at all.
Tang Zheng would not do such things as cheating on others, but what does the Fifth Company do?
He was always the one to take the blame. Although Tang Zheng didn't advocate it, he just did it.
But Tang Zheng was not satisfied either and snorted coldly: "You have to do things properly. How can something slip through the net?"
Seeing that Tang Zheng didn't seem too angry, Ji Yuntian became bolder: "It was our mistake. The leader was too cunning. Now there is another situation. There is a famous person among the people who were rescued."
"celebrity?"
"Yes, the group of mercenaries that the Fifth Company defeated earlier were hired by this celebrity. He wanted to protect them when they went to Jinghe County and the base of the Fifth Army. Now that the group of people were rescued, he still wanted to hire five more mercenaries.
Michael can't make up his mind about protecting them when they go to Jinghe County, so he reports to you for instructions?"
"Hezhou is about five hundred kilometers away from here, so let's go and take a look."
Seeing Ji Yuntian's hesitation, Tang Zheng felt that something was a little weird. Anyway, there was a plane now, so he went over to take a look.
The helicopter started and headed straight for Hezhou, five hundred kilometers away from Zhuguang City.
After nearly two hours of flight, Tang Zheng arrived over Hezhou.
On the way, he had already contacted the Fifth Company, and the plane landed directly at the Fifth Company's location.
Just after getting off the plane, Michael led several platoon leaders from the fifth company and came over to salute Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng returned the favor: "What exactly happened here? It's worth your while to contact me."
Michael explained the situation, and it was probably similar to what Ji Yuntian said. A base leader ran away, and a group of survivors were rescued by them.
The key problem is that there is a celebrity among this group of survivors, and Michael doesn't know how to deal with it.
Tang Zheng frowned: "Aren't celebrities also survivors? Are they so worthy of attention?"
"General, this time is different. This celebrity is a famous reporter and network anchor. He has many fans and great influence in the country. Don't you think you can take advantage of it?"
"Who are you talking about?"
Michael took out a poster from before the apocalypse, with a beautiful young girl on it.
"The voice from the deep sea, the most beautiful reporter, Little Dili."
Looking at this man, Tang Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.
Xiao Dili is a news reporter from Yuanjing Royal Radio. As a reporter, her appearance is the ceiling among reporters. She is also a network anchor.
Her voice is beautiful and somewhat evil. When she was a reporter, her voice was sweet and charming. When she was an anchor, she occasionally sang for fans and captivated a large group of people.
Her fans say she has the singing voice of a deep-sea siren and is the singer who was delayed by reporters.
Because of these two identities, Xiao Dili has a large fan base in China, and people who like her voice do not even distinguish between age groups.
Tang Zheng also liked Xiao Dili before, liked her voice, and was considered a fan of hers.
So Tang Zheng knew Xiao Dili relatively well.
During her live broadcast, she was once asked what kind of boyfriend she would like to find in the future.
Xiao Dili replied that she is relatively insecure, so she needs to find a man who can give her a sense of security, and he must be very, very strong.
This also discourages many people who want to pursue Xiao Dili. Even if some brave men still insist on trying, they all hit a wall without exception.
There have been no scandals in the three years since she has been in the industry, which is one of the reasons why Xiao Dili's fans love her.
So now Tang Zheng can especially understand why Xiao Dili chose to go to Jinghe County.
Because it is a place protected by royal troops, it may make her feel safer.
In order to arrive safely, she even hired mercenaries.
But unfortunately, she has been targeted. Another group of people hired Michael and the others and defeated the mercenaries hired by Little Dili. Then Michael took advantage of the evil again, and Little Dili fell into his hands.
.
Tang Zheng thought for a while and felt that this matter seemed to be a bit confusing.
He looked at Michael again: "You've made a lot of money during this period, right? Where are the funds?"
"Oh, here, I almost forgot."
Michael immediately greeted, and two platoon leaders, LeBron and Stephen, took out a package from the car and handed it to Tang Zheng.
Seeing the big bag and the two people struggling, Tang Zheng did not pick it up, but let them put it on the ground.
Then they picked it up and found that the weight was at least about 40 kilograms, which they had accumulated during this period.
Tang Zheng immediately opened it and exchanged it.
[The exchange was successful, congratulations to the general for receiving 88,600 gold.]
"It's quite a lot. It seems that jewelry accounts for a large part of it."
Tang Zheng was happy because he had nearly 110,000 gold in his hand.
Although the front line still needs funds, the reserve fund of 20,000 yuan is enough, and he still has 90,000 yuan at his disposal.
Tang Zheng collected the funds and thought it was time to meet Xiao Dili.
Little Dili is nineteen years old this year. When she was still in high school at the age of sixteen, she was spotted by Royal Radio Beijing for her live broadcast, and she went for an interview and became a trainee reporter there.
With her unique singing known as the Siren's murmur, accurate reporting and sharp analysis of news facts, and her beautiful appearance, Little Dili became an overnight sensation.
Her cross-border status makes her fan base as good as that of some big stars, especially her voice, which is almost universally known.
Before the end of the world, she planned to come to Hezhou to cover news.
But just after leaving the airport, on the way to the city, everything changed.
The end of the world has begun, and people have turned into monsters.
Fortunately, she also had a bodyguard group in her team. After going through many hardships, she finally survived here.
After that, little Dili began a life of wandering and wandering.
The former celebrities were like wanderers, hiding around every day, looking for a suitable hiding place.
With great difficulty, they found a supermarket in the urban-rural fringe area and established a foothold there.
Every day, her team collects supplies while listening to the radio, waiting for news of rescue.
Gradually, she determined that there was no rescue for the time being, but she could save herself.
There are many survivor bases in this world that are recruiting people, but little Dili doesn't like any of them.
Those bases were too weak to give her enough protection.
She has been influenced by her native family since she was a child, and she lacks a sense of security. Otherwise, she would not go out and bring a large team of bodyguards.
And she also knows her identity. If she goes to an inappropriate place, she might become a man's plaything.
So if she wants to go, it must be somewhere strong enough and secure.
It wasn't until news of the Imperial Royal Fifth Army emerged that Little Dili decided to go.
She used a lot of materials she collected to contact a mercenary team on the radio and established an employment relationship.
A mercenary team came to protect her and her team set off, but before they had walked a few dozen miles, they started fighting with another foreign mercenary group.
The group of fierce foreigners defeated their mercenaries and fled in panic.
Xiao Dili and others became prisoners of another base.
The people in this base are not good people at first glance. They have detained many survivors here to work for them. The total number of survivors is even thousands.
There were often women coming in and out of the armed men's tents, but no woman came out. You could tell what was going on inside by looking at the disheveled appearance.
Fortunately, the prisoner Xiao Dili seems to be relatively important, and no ordinary militants have yet caused trouble for her.
But this also means that little Dili is being targeted.
Little Dili was worried about her fate, but unexpectedly there was another fight outside.
Amidst the bursts of gunfire, the people in this base were beaten to the point of crying for their fathers and mothers.
The battle did not last long and ended in more than twenty minutes.
Xiao Dili and others were opened from the tent where they were imprisoned.
A group of foreigners with guns came in and drove them all out.
Xiao Dili and others left the tent anxiously and went outside, only to find that the outside had become a military camp.
Many foreign soldiers stayed here, no one asked them anything, they just looked at them, which made Xiao Dili and others feel uneasy.
Many of the survivors here recognized her, and it was obvious that some wanted to talk to her, but no one took any actual action.
Obviously, people in the last days know how to be reverent, and they are also afraid of foreigners with guns.
But none of those foreigners seemed to know Little Dili.
This is normal. Xiao Dili is very popular in Hanyue, but she has not yet become popular abroad, and few foreigners know her.
This made little Dili, who had always been the center of attention in front of the camera, a little uncomfortable.
She wanted to find someone she could talk to to relieve her anxiety.
After walking inside the military camp for a while, she suddenly found a suitable target.
