Lao Xie shouted to A Hong behind him: "A Hong, come here."

Ah Hong trotted over, and Lao Xie repeated Li Yu's question.

Faced with this question, Ahong thought for a moment and replied:

"There is no accurate number. The total number of people scattered in Yi County, Laishui County, and Gaobei around the northern border should be more than 3,000."

"Based on limited contact, most people come from the northeast and coastal areas."

"Sometimes we will also issue some tasks to them, asking them to help collect some things, and some information, and give them some food..."

"Information? Tell me." Li Yu asked with interest.

Ah Hong glanced at Lao Xie, who raised his chin.

"The city lord asked you, how many times do you want to see me do..."

It seems like there is something that needs to be hidden from the city lord.

A Hong was a little embarrassed. He mainly felt that reporting to the city lord should be the responsibility of the person in charge, Lao Xie.

He said that he was afraid of stealing Lao Xie's limelight.

He didn't feel good about the cross-level report.

A Hong scratched his head and said:

"There was not much valuable information in the past, but there have been two valuable pieces of information in the past week. One is that survivors from Liao Province reported that there were many sticks and beautiful soldiers there..."

"There were a lot of battles there before, and many survivors were driven away, but from their descriptions, they weren't very strong..."

"Captain Xie and I reported this information to the headquarters base the day before yesterday."

Li Yu frowned when he heard this. He didn't even know about this.

Oil City, Da Zhangshu Base, and the northern border often receive various information, including information about the survivor team.

Now on the map of Da Zhangshu base, the locations of some survivor forces are specially marked, including their population, combat strength and other information.

But these forces are simply not enough in the face of the powerful Da Zhangshu forces.

And these forces will not seek death against such a powerful camphor tree.

Li Yu occupies a high position, and various things happen every day in the Da Zhangshu forces. He cannot know everything.

From A Hong's perspective, the appearance of a not-so-powerful force, which was still hundreds of kilometers away from the northern border, was not a cause for concern.

Moreover, there are fewer combatants in the north now, and they still have to defend the wall. The main focus is on the food producers. As long as those people don't come to provoke them, they don't want to pay attention.

Li Yu's face was gloomy. If it was an ordinary domestic force, he wouldn't have to worry about it.

Both the stick and the beautiful soldiers went to the pre-apocalyptic territory, which made Li Yu very unhappy.

His thinking is different from that of ordinary people. From the outbreak of the apocalypse to the present, his thinking has not changed.

Ordinary people may face the emergence of surrounding forces and basically choose to avoid conflicts.

Li Yu, in order to avoid possible conflicts, annexed that force.

Take it directly.

Those that are not suitable for annexation will be destroyed directly.

Total destruction.

Nip possible future crises in their bud.

If the distance to the northwest was not too far, the expedition was difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the forces in the northwest were indeed powerful, he might have led a team to destroy the northwest.

Nowadays, people from a beautiful and beautiful country have entered the country, and Lao Xie and the others don't take it seriously and don't care?!

"Have you sent anyone to investigate?" Li Yu asked.

His tone was a little low, as if he was a volcano about to erupt.

A Hong heard Li Yu's emotional changes, swallowed his saliva and said seriously:

"Two helicopters were dispatched to investigate. It is true that there are only a few hundred people in the team, but it does not seem to have many heavy weapons..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Yu continued to ask:

"Is it just these people or are there other teams behind them? Where is their base? Have you sent anyone to monitor them?"

Faced with this question, Ah Hong hesitated and couldn't answer.

He couldn't answer because he didn't know.

Lao Xie stood up and said:

"City Lord, they are far away from us, hundreds of kilometers away, and they are just over there in Dandong..."

"They dare not provoke us even if they eat the heart of a bear or a leopard."

"How do you know they don't dare to come to you?" Li Yu asked suppressing his anger.

"City Lord, our camphor tree is so powerful, why should we be afraid of them? They will never dare to come to us to cause trouble." Lao Xie said.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Hear his answer.

Li Yu looked at Lao Xie in shock. Who gave him such confidence?

As the Lord of the Great Zhangshu City, you are not even good enough, but you, an old Xie, dare to be so good?!

He looked at Lao Xie as if he was meeting him for the first time.

In his impression, Lao Xie has always been a cheerful and interesting premature old man.

I have followed Da Zhangshu Base for many years, and joined Lao Lu not long after the base was first established.

He has been staying at the headquarters base for so many years. Eight months ago, because his third uncle went south to take charge of Oil City, there was a shortage of people in the north, so he was transferred to the north to take charge of affairs here.

Unexpectedly, he had no sense of crisis and was even a little arrogant.

Looking back on Lao Xie's experience, it seems reasonable to explain why he was like this.

I stayed at the headquarters base for too long and didn't experience too much turmoil.

Even when Li Yu went to the Western Alliance and Southeast Asia Scam Park, Lao Xie stayed at the headquarters base to defend.

It is different from people like Ju Tianrui, Lao Luo, Xiao Jun, Dongtai, Lao Bi, and even Zhu Xiao and Guo Peng.

Ju Tianrui and his gang are always fighting, fighting, or pioneering.

When Ju Tianrui and Xiao Jun first arrived in Oil City, they were very poor and there was no trading market.

The height of the oil city wall is only a dozen meters.

Everyone can see what the Oil City Trading Market has become now.

On the other hand, on the northern border, the base's senior management is not that important to the strategic positioning of the northern border, so not so many resources and manpower have been invested.

Moreover, the wall on the northern border is high, and there are headquarters base and oil city to support oil, ultraviolet lamps, knives and other things, so they can sit back and relax here.

Li Yu was disappointed and angry. At this moment, he doubted that sending Lao Xie here was not a good decision.

Maybe it's because the northern border is too stable, or maybe it's because I don't come here often.

After Third Uncle led the team to withdraw from Oil City.

It's so safe here in the north.

There is no fighting.

There is no need for internal management, you just need to do a good job in planting, which is almost the same as caring for the elderly.

No wonder the imperial concubine had to step down from her position as captain of a militia brigade in the north and join the transportation brigade.

Because here, it is too peaceful and stable.

When he walked down, he had a clear feeling about the combat team here, that is, they were content with the status quo and had no sense of crisis!

The combat team in Oil City has a clear sense of crisis and has built a large number of sentry towers in the surrounding area to patrol regularly...

The headquarters base is okay. Although there has been peace for many years, perhaps because I am stationed there, the battle order at the headquarters base is still very crisis-conscious.

Here in the north, Lao Xie is in charge, especially after Lao Yi left.

He basically has the final say here alone.

As the saying goes: "If a general is incompetent, his army will be exhausted; if a general is in a den, his army will be in rags."

If Lao Xie is like this, no wonder the entire combat team he leads is so lax!
