Chapter 304, The Birds Are Gone, The Bow Is Hidden
At this time Ren Xiaosu suddenly realized that he would have the wrong meaning, he was still wondering before the war why the thugs didn’t step in to stop this war or sabotage it.
As a result, it was only now that he realized that the mob’s main goal was just the nuclear test site, and didn’t include anything else.
It was probably like what Yang Xiaoguan had said, once the world had been plunged into disaster because of this, then humans shouldn’t try to master it again.
However, Ren Xiaosu curiously said, “But I think what Qing Zhen said also makes sense ah, that’s the fault of human beings, not nuclear.”
Yang Xiaoguan said, “I thought so too at first, but the 17 nuclear test bases that were destroyed were all doing military oriented research, and gradually no one questioned this idea.”
“But this time the Qing Clan started the war, if Qing Zhen really held that kind of weapon in his hands, I’m afraid the Li Clan would have been long gone,” Ren Xiaosu said.
“I don’t know,” Yang Xiaoguan shook her head.
In fact, Ren Xiaosu didn’t support anyone in this matter, because this kind of “big event” didn’t seem to have anything to do with him, after all, he was just a migrant who wanted to live.
Qing Zhen also has a point, the mob also has a factual basis, until the last moment, who can decide who is right and who is wrong?
Ren Xiaosu asked again, “17 nuclear test bases? Where are they? Qing’s?”
“No,” Yang Xiaoguan shook her head, “In fact, the main scope of activities of the mob members over the years has shifted to the Central Plains, the 17 nuclear test bases were also destroyed over there, the mob members that stayed in the Southwest are few and far between, it’s a much wider world over there. ”
Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, it was the second time he had heard the term Central Plains mentioned, after the Calamity humanity was solidly walled off, and information and transportation were closed off.
So since he was a child Ren Xiaosu thought that the world was actually that big, the northeast was the Qing Clan, the north was the Yang Clan, the northwest was the 178 Barrier, and the south was the Li Clan.
This used to be the map of the world in Ren Xiaosu’s mind, but later he found that it was not so, Zhang Jinglin had mentioned but did not talk about it in depth, he only said that the southwest to the Central Plains of the road is not very good, the crustal movement of the highway is damaged, the mountains, elevation, became the natural barrier of the southwest.
Ren Xiaosu curiously said, “What is the Central Plains like.”
“I haven’t been there either,” Yang Xiaoguan shook her head, “I once heard my aunt tell me that it was more prosperous as well as glorious, there were even continuous highways connecting the barriers, and the residents were able to traverse between the barriers and trade freely without worry, and there were also people who drove their cars and traveled to faraway places. The gates of the barriers were open throughout the day, and only closed at night afterward. She once said that Barrier 1 was like a miracle of human civilization, and that at nighttime it was like a star that would never go out.”
“You want to go to the Central Plains?” Ren Xiaosu asked.
Yang Xiaoguan glanced at him and said, “Not going.”
Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, according to what Yang Xiaoguan had said before, the center of the mob’s activities had been moved to the Central Plains, so it was logical that Yang Xiaoguan would go there as well, right, so how come he wasn’t going again.
“By the way,” Yang Xiaoguan said, “Luo Lan should be leaving from 88 Barrier soon, if things go well on our way, you guys should still have time to meet.”
“Luo Lan is leaving the 88 Barriers?” Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, he had heard Tang Zhou talk about Luo Lan being sent to 88 Barriers by Qing Zhen, saying that Luo Lan had gone to be Qing’s representative for the sake of the two consortia’s cooperation.
But now that Luo Lan was leaving, that meant that the cooperation between the two families was coming to an end, right?
When these two consortia weakened Li to a certain extent, the next alliance that cooperated would also lose the basis of cooperation for common interests.
……
At this time Luo Lan is already in the 88 barriers commanding subordinates to pack things: “Light point light point, the things to move the car when all give me a little more careful, this can be I spend a lot of money to buy souvenirs, broken you can not afford to pay ah!”
The subordinate laughed happily, “Boss, are we going back now? Did Chief Qingzheng win the battle?”
“Aren’t you talking nonsense,” Luo Lan said with a smile, “There’s no battle that Qing Zhen can’t win? Li’s old boys are definitely finished!”
In this war, Luo Lan had basically done nothing except negotiating with Yang Clan, and had relied on Yang Clan to eat and drink.
Now that he was going back, he might even be able to catch up with the final siege of the Li Clan, thinking about this Luo Lan had a burst of excitement, he didn’t know why, he very much enjoyed the war, even though the days during the war were very bitter, he didn’t eat well or sleep well, but that’s what he liked.
However, just at this moment, the roar of vehicles suddenly came from the streets of the wall, the soldiers beside Luo Lan subconsciously wanted to pick up their weapons, but as a result, Luo Lan waved his hand and laughed, ”Don’t worry, who dares to touch us in 88 Walls? It’s probably Yang coming to see us off.”
Only to see that came three troop transport trucks, that convoy came to Luo Lan in front of them, then there is a large group of soldiers jumped out of the car, Luo Lan muttered, “This damn does not look like a send off ah ……”
As he spoke, an officer came in front of Luo Lan and calmly said, “Everyone can’t leave yet.”
“Why?” Luo Lan froze for a moment, “Are you Yangs crazy?”
“It’s not us that’s crazy,” the officer sneered, “It’s you Qing Clan that’s crazy, or to be precise, it’s Qing Zhen that’s crazy!”
“What happened,” Luo Lan frowned.
“Originally last night, according to the agreement between the two sides they would attack the Guangying Mountain line together, but when my Yang Clan arrived at the battlefield, Qing Clan’s troops suddenly withdrew, leaving us to face Li Clan’s artillery fire alone, leaving us with heavy casualties!” The officer sneered, “If the covenant can go back on its word, you all don’t need to leave, come on, put them under house arrest and keep them under guard 24 hours a day!”
Luo Lan froze for a long time, “Is the information accurate?”
The officer said, “It seems like that brother of yours doesn’t care much about your life either.”
With that, a group of soldiers raised their guns and forced Luo Lan and the others back into the house, Luo Lan raised his hands, “Don’t push, don’t push, we’ll go in by ourselves and talk things over.”
His fat body backed towards the house, and hit the door as he entered.
A soldier whispered beside Luo Lan and asked, “Boss, has Officer Qingjian given up on us?”
“Put your fucking dog shit on,” Luo Lan said in a bad mood, “Qing Zhen wouldn’t do such a thing!”
“Then this is ……” the soldier hesitated.
Luo Lan sighed, “I’m afraid that it’s no longer Qing Zhen who is a man of his word in the army.”
Luo Lan was the one who knew Qing Zhen the best, and he knew very well that Qing Zhen wouldn’t screw him over.
Then there was only one answer left: the person who made the decision to retreat was not Qing Zhen.
Before, Qing didn’t move Qing Zhen because he wasn’t willing to change his generals on the battlefield, delaying the opportunity to fight.
But now that Li has been defeated, Qing Zhen naturally has no use for him.
