Thirty tired policemen, five Panthers, and a captured Stitch Tank, without any air cover and no idea of whether they could get support, escorted three hundred people with their families.
Civilians, cut through the array of millions of sand people armed with guns, cannons and colleagues, and send them into the city.
If it is really done, it will definitely be a glorious achievement that can be included in history and military textbooks, and can even be praised as the epic of the entire civilization thousands of years later.
I would like to ask, which protagonist of a good novel would not be in the limelight? Wouldn’t it be nice to be a hero who is famous in history and civilized sages? So, Yu Lian’s heart is moved...it’s strange!
He is not stupid!
Yu Lian rolled his eyes, wondering whether he should use his spiritual power to make the living meat ball in front of him and feed it to the space amoeba. At this time, a few people who came with the congressmen, who were probably public opinion representatives, started to make noises.
Already.
"Yes, yes, it is safer in the city."
"Now that there are soldiers, they can protect us, right?"
"Yes, we are already outside the city. No one can accept it if we continue to stay in the wild!"
"You are a soldier, right? Why don't you say something? Isn't your duty to protect us?"
"We want safe houses, clean beds, doctors and hot food!"
How about I crush you all into meat balls and feed them to the amoebas? Yu Lian thought with a smile.
Dr. Banks behind him looked embarrassed. He went up to explain but was surrounded by others before he could speak. Ina had gradually shown her anger. When the soldiers saw this scene, some were at a loss while others gathered together.
They came over. Seeing this scene, the public opinion representatives calmed down a little.
The congressman glared fiercely at the "public opinion representatives" behind him: "What are you doing? What are you doing? What kind of mob are you? We are all well-known celebrities in Xinyumen, can you have a little dignity?"
He should still be very prestigious, and he made everyone shut up in anger. Taking this opportunity, he grabbed Yu Lian's hand and said pleasantly: "I understand that this kind of matter needs to be discussed in the long term.
This is indeed not the place for conversation, so please come with me. It’s just the right time for a little entertainment.”
Yu Lian wanted to throw away the opponent's hand, but this handsome congressman actually had some strength, and he couldn't do it in public. With just such a hesitation, he was dragged to the end of the motorcade.
On a luxury RV.
Yu Lian knew that this was model 825 of the Kodo RV produced by Alliance. It had a large indoor living space, complete living equipment, and enough supplies and energy for five or six people to live comfortably in it for two or three weeks.
In addition, the top model of this model can also be equipped with military armor, liquid metal coating, shields and nano-repair machines, which is even more resistant than the Stitch Monster tank that everyone captured. Even if it comes in the wind and fire.
Even if you run in sandstorms or even acid rain for a week or two, you can still keep it looking shiny and beautiful.
Standing in front of this vehicle that looked like a mobile villa, Yu Lian felt a little in awe for a moment (because of its price).
He knew that all the soldiers at Depot No. 12 would have to go without food and water for ten years before they could afford the price of this big guy. But not far from this RV, there were dozens of dusty passenger cars.
and trucks, scattered there without any order. Ordinary citizens who were also dusty, wrapped in gray windproof cloaks, gathered around blankly and even numbly, like a group of puppets.
They still have some food on hand that can satisfy their hunger, but it is nothing more than some convenient food that has been stored for a long time, and there is not much.
Of course they didn't dare to light a fire, so they could only lean together and gather around some small heating equipment with very low power. The bodies wrapped in windproof cloaks were shivering, and they were wandering in the shadows of the metropolis, scavenging precariously.
There is no difference between homeless people and homeless people.
Yu Lian has seen such scenes many times in later generations, whether it was humans or other intelligent races.
It stands to reason that the galactic society that has been able to travel across the sea of stars has already reached an era where productivity is exploding and materials are never in short supply, but this is not the case. Is it because the technology tree is wrong, or is it because the saying "productivity determines production relations" is not true.
Absolutely correct, Yu Lian is not too sure.
He only knows that the superiors have different simple and boring happiness in every era; but all living beings have similar sufferings and hardships in every era.
"Look, Warrant Officer, I didn't lie to you. We are short of food, lack of cold-proof supplies, and lack of medicine. We are actually at our limit. After a while, we won't even have canned food and black bread. So, I
I hope you can understand everyone's anxiety." Mr. Congressman's face was full of compassion.
If he hadn't been in the RV when he said this, blowing the natural warm air from the simulated ecological equipment, with the Holy Red Wine dangling in his hand, and the exquisite snacks on the crystal coffee table in front of him, Yu Lian would have almost believed it.
"You're welcome for not being well received. You've just finished fighting and need to rest." Mr. Congressman was very enthusiastic, or in other words, too enthusiastic. He was just like a friendly and hospitable uncle next door.
He poured a glass of red wine for Yu Lian and said, "Warrant Officer, I heard that your officer is a student at the Central Defense University? He is doing his graduation internship!"
"...Exactly. I will graduate next summer."
"That's great. I graduated from the Civil Engineering Department of Wugang Military Academy, but in the end I didn't have the chance to join the army. Later I got a degree from Venice Business School. You see, we have the same background, so we have the basis for good communication.
.”
It took Yu Lian nearly two seconds to understand what the other party meant. Because he was a student at the National Defense University, a member of the so-called "elite bureaucratic group" in the military, he was qualified to have an equal dialogue with top students from prestigious schools like Mr. Congressman. If
The congressman would never be so polite when he said that he was not leading the team now, but Lieutenant Mundson.
Well, no problem, it's very logical. Various chains of contempt constitute class and society. Of course, contempt for academic qualifications is also part of it, and the proportion is quite large.
"We are the elite of society and the country, and we only need to take on greater responsibilities occasionally. You should understand, right? Of course, it even includes some things that may be misleading."
"Well, your Excellency, Congressman... Just tell me what you need me to do."
"Very good, straight to the point. This is what elites from our military academy should be like." The other party praised.
Yu Lian felt that if he was not the so-called "Moon Man", the congressman would probably think that "rude rape is not enough" or something like that.
"I understand your concerns, Warrant Officer. With such a small force, it is impossible for you to protect everyone and break into Tulon. The trucks and buses that the refugees are riding in can't even stop the claws of the Velociraptor."
Yu Lian was a little surprised by the congressman's words. The other party smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you that I also studied in a military academy and am your senior? I also have basic military knowledge. However, standing in front of me
From our standpoint, there is really no way for everyone to stay sane."
Yu Lian shook his wine glass and looked at each other quietly. Whether it was pretending to be one of them or pretending to be pitiful, it was a traditional skill of these guys. Whoever took it seriously was a fool.
"However, you have seen my car, right? There are three or four of these protected and armored RVs in the fleet, plus your Panthers and tanks.
.It should be enough as an assault force."
I must admit that what Mr. Congressman said makes sense. Although there is no Kodo 3 in the fleet that can directly crush a large velociraptor to death, there are also high-end RVs with better defenses than the Black Panther.
There are indeed a few left. After all, this is Xinyumen, and anyone who dares to come here to buy real estate will have to sacrifice their lives.
In terms of defense alone, this is already a very effective armored assault force. However, Yu Lian still has questions: "...give up those trucks?"
"In a breakout, they will only be a burden. Your officials should know better than me."
"There are at least a thousand people in the convoy. Can these RVs... be able to accommodate them?"
"This is what I said, and it may be misunderstood. You are still young, Warrant Officer. You will know in the future that no matter how hard you try, there will always be dissatisfaction and unfairness. Maybe this is life. But, we
We can’t delay important matters just because we pursue this illusory fairness.”
What is your so-called big deal? Your own life?
"A hundred people should be able to fit into the RV. I will bring some important people and their families. Don't worry, Warrant Officer, they are all celebrities with a certain status. In the Parliament of Tulon, um, even
You have some reputation in the galaxy. When this is over, people will only remember that you saved the lives of a hundred people, including old people and children."
However, I will remember that I abandoned a thousand other people, including old people and children.
"Of course, the remaining people are indeed a little pitiful. You can leave a small team of troops to protect them. As long as they guard the mouth of the valley, they should be able to support the rescue. Well, with the blessing of the spirit of the universe, they will definitely be able to persevere.
To the end.”
Yu Lian resisted the urge in his heart to destroy something. Even though his smile didn't change, he was still able to smile, which surprised himself.
"...Why not wait a few more days. Congressman, I estimate that a counterattack will be launched in Tulon City soon. Reinforcements from the garrison and the outer ring fleet should also arrive soon. Why do we need to risk entering the city?
Woolen cloth?"
"Hey, haven't you seen it already? Everyone's supplies won't last long." The congressman took a sip of wine and threw a small piece of cake into his mouth.
Yes, if you wait for another day or two, the poor people who are short of food and clothing may take action on you. Once a person is anxious and hears the cry of a child because of hunger, even the weakest person will
Incarnate into a monster. Because of this, you want me to escort you into the city first, right?
Therefore, manage the materials of the entire fleet in a unified manner, and distribute the excess materials of the rich to the poor who are short of food and clothing. Such an option was not within the scope of your consideration from the beginning, right?
