Chapter 77 Step by step for the camp (3)
"Wu Han, we seem to have also introduced a set of equipment for small solar power stations. When do you plan to start installation and commissioning? You have to hurry up, and it will snow if you drag it down."
If we talk about other topics, Xu Changli, who is not well aware of the worldly principles, is afraid that he will not be able to grasp the key points, so he simply turns the topic back to his profession, so he will not make mistakes again and again. In fact, Wu Han is very clear about what kind of person Xu Changli is, and Wu Han doesn't care about the unintentional mistake just now. Of course, this is also because of a high glance at Xu Changli. If someone else said this, even if Wu Han doesn't pursue it, as long as others see his unhappy look, they will probably not have any good results for those who annoy Wu Han.
At this time, when he heard Xu Changli's suggestion that he had nothing to say, Wu Han laughed and waved his hand and said:
"Don't worry about eating salty radish. The solar generator is not for us to use, it is prepared for Xin'an Town. Always ask them to light the oil lamp to live, that is not a long-term solution!"
Everything in the world is not to worry about the lack of people, but to be uneven. This is like when the Second Republic of China was first founded, there were definitely many more people who were starving and frozen all day than in the era before the nuclear war broke out, and their material enjoyment was not the same. However, those who lived in the early days of the founding of the country were generally happy. To put it in a verbal sentence, it should be called the people at that time full of happiness. The reason is actually very simple. First, life has hope, and all the conditions around them are gradually improving, and they will definitely get better and better. Second, everyone is equal, and few people rely on privileges and positions to live better than ordinary people. As a result, the whole society has a strong sense of happiness, which has created a peak record that later generations are destined to be insurmountable.
In the decades that followed, in the subsequent decades, during the famine, movement and reform, the mind and body had suffered more and more unhappy things, and the happy laughter in life became less and more indifferent. Until the time point before the outbreak of the nuclear war, it was still the world's top ten billion people, and almost didn't feel that they were happy in life. Moreover, this lack of happiness was not necessarily related to having money or not. The poor and rich people also lacked happiness. From the perspective of later generations, it was really a rescued era.
Even if it is conservatively estimated, the living conditions of Taohuayuan are several times better than Xin'an Town. For example, clean and safe tap water, 24-hour power supply, centralized heating facilities throughout every household, and even bathing facilities that provide hot spring water all day long. These hardware facilities will undoubtedly make the survivors of Xin'an Town envious in their dreams. Up to now, the survivors of Xin'an Town are not very clear about the specific situation of Taohuayuan, but the paper cannot cover the fire after all. Even if the news is blocked, the people of Xin'an Town will know these situations sooner or later.
If the survivors in Xin'an Town understand that they have to endure poor living conditions for a long time in order to safeguard the interests of the Peach Blossom Land and bear many dangers that always threaten their lives. In such a comparison, it would be a real fantasy to prevent them from having resentment and negative feelings.
Instead of making up for the loss, it is better to prepare for the future. Wu Han does not want the survivors of Xin'an Town to be resentful and even have other thoughts due to long-term unfair treatment.
Let the situation develop, the strongest defensive fortress will also begin to collapse from the inside, since this prospect is foreseeable. For this reason, improving people's livelihood is undoubtedly an effective means of winning over, and the real benefits are far more effective than any propaganda offensive that can fill the hunger. Only when people generally feel that their lives are getting better day by day can they respect the existing social order and leadership group convincingly. This subtle improvement is far more realistic than suddenly claiming to lead people to run into a magical paradise like a mirage.
There is no doubt that Xu Changli is a smart person, but his intelligence is reflected in researching science, and his usual behavior seems to be lacking. Perhaps because he felt the unfinished meaning in Wu Han's words, Xu Changli muttered:
"Oh! Then forget it, next year should be better!"
After saying that, Xu Changli ignored Wu Han. He turned around and took out the love lunch carefully prepared by his wife Cheng Lu from his backpack, and began to enjoy the delicious meal attentively. Seeing this, Wu Han also felt a little hungry. He laughed dryly and took out the steamed buns and pickles in his pocket to satisfy his hunger. It was almost noon, and the bright sunshine in autumn gave a illusion of hotness. But the illusion was an illusion after all. In less than a month, the flawless snow would cover this lush land. The slight warmth of the autumn tiger was playing with its only little power.
"Huh! Huh! Huh!"
With the sound of rapid breathing and the chaotic footsteps mixed together, a tense atmosphere that made people feel upset. The young man who was struggling and running forward in the dense bushes was now completely ignoring that his cheeks had been cut by the sharp thorns in the bushes, and his blood could not stop dripping. He only knew how to make all his feet run. Of course, it was not for exercise to run in such panic. In fact, noisy voices and dog barking could be heard not far behind the escapee.
"Hurry up, don't let that guy go."
The mercenaries who formed loose formations of soldiers were tightening the encirclement in an orderly manner, as skilled as if they were as natural as wolves catching hares.
Since the two opponents, Hongliu Company, which dominated the three provinces, the mine protection team in Daqingshan in the north, and Taohuayuan in the east, reached a ceasefire and settlement agreement, officially announcing the end of the war between the three parties. Some time ago, the difficult period of being forced to fight on both sides and endured the embarrassment of the enemy from both sides was finally over. Under the strong pressure of Meng Shenji, the opposition within Hongliu Company basically ended up with a sideways. As for the remaining small group of guys who were really stubborn, they either had some small accidents while on patrol and died, or they would go out for a walk in the middle of the night, but they would get lost in the woods. From then on, they would never see anyone or die.
After ending the cruel internal struggle to consolidate his own power, Meng Shenji began to plan the future development blueprint of Hongliu Company with confidence and seek to further expand his power.
In today's wilderness after the nuclear war, there are a lot of wasteland suitable for agricultural cultivation, so occupying land is not a key factor in promoting development. What is really valuable is to control those scarce resources and increase their own population base.
The mercenaries of Torrent Company are a group of full-time professional soldiers. They do nothing but training, patrols and exercises every day. In fact, they are not good at other jobs except killing and setting fires. Therefore, enough manpower is required to ensure production and supply, such as food and daily necessities, as well as weapons and ammunition. In this way, the number of slaves they had caught seemed not large enough, and what happened next was naturally done.
Based on its rich colonial experience in sub-Saharan Africa, Torrent Company sent several teams to capture slaves and launched a large-scale continuous sweep operation in the south of the actual controlled area by pulling a net. Although there were no large settlements in this area, there were only a large number of small groups of more than a dozen people, and these people became the first victims of Torrent Company's hegemony plan.
Although born in the New World, Meng Shenji still prefers Eastern culture due to his subtle influence from his ancestors. He even obtained a doctorate in history, which is not as developed as some people imagine. As a scholar who studies history, Meng Shenji certainly knows that slave labor erases the autonomy and enthusiasm of workers and is not suitable to continue as a means of long-term rule. But the problem is that those sects who support him are satisfied with the current situation of giving. Even Meng Shenji himself is not willing to risk arousing dissatisfaction with his subordinates and launches a system reform movement with uncertain futures. Therefore, these caught people are still put into the concentration camps to engage in forced labor as always.
This young man who was running desperately may not know what the people behind him wanted to do when they caught him, but one thing is clear that no one of the survivors who were caught by these people had ever come back alive. If he did not want to entrust his own destiny to the unknown, then this desperate running with exhaustion that was exhausted was the only way he could choose to struggle.
“Huhhhh…”
No matter how tenacious and unyielding the will of a person to survive, the physical energy of human beings is limited after all. When the exercise volume reaches the limit, the young man's breathing becomes more and more rapid, and his legs are as heavy as lead. Long-term running and nervousness almost exhausted the young man's physical strength. Now he only supports his extremely tired body with an unwilling spirit.
Just as the young man struggled hard and refused to surrender to fate, the bushes in front of him suddenly shook suddenly, and then a shout came from:
"Stop, who?"
