The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 379 A Good Home

On the other side, in a low-rise building complex, Li Meng and his group of six had already reunited.

Behind the building, next to the "White Whale" land vehicle, six heavy cavalry guards were scattered everywhere.

Looking at the enemy leaving on the snowy road in the distance, Xu Jianxiong was surprised and said, "Captain, how do you know they will evacuate?"

Yes, why is the captain so sure that the other party will evacuate?

Xu Jianxiong's words undoubtedly spoke out everyone's thoughts.

In the narrow cockpit, Li Meng leaned back on the driver's seat and said calmly, "We solved a snow train in a few minutes. How can they not be frightened and afraid? They will doubt what relationship we have with the shelter in the main peak. Smart people will not let themselves fall into a desperate situation of being attacked from all sides. In such a situation, they can only retreat, otherwise, they will take the risk of annihilation."

So that's it, the enemy is afraid.

Everyone understood that the heavy cavalry guards are indeed an incredible equipment.

If there were no heavy cavalry guards, the previous battle would not have been so smooth, and a snow train would not have been destroyed so easily, which frightened the enemy.

Is this the power of technology?

At this time, Chen Beier's childish voice sounded from the communicator.

"Captain, after they leave, should we attack the shelter?"

In the cockpit, Li Meng tapped on the bracelet, and outside, the door of the rear compartment of the "White Whale" land vehicle slowly opened.

Li Meng controlled the heavy cavalry guards to turn around and walk towards the land vehicle, saying: "Wait, everyone return to the car and rest for two days."

Rest for two days?

Why rest for two days? Shouldn't we hurry up and act?

Although they were very confused, the captain said so, and the five people could only walk to the rear compartment.

Climbing up the rear compartment and kneeling in the compartment, they heard a "click" and the cockpit door on the back of the heavy cavalry guard was opened.

Li Meng got out of the door and walked towards the front of the car.

Back in the cab, Li Meng sat down on the driver's seat.

The cockpit of the Heavy Cavalry Guard was too small, and it was impossible to stretch one's limbs inside. It was okay for a short time, but it would be a torture for anyone if it lasted for a long time.

Of course, Chen Bei'er was an exception, and she had no problem stretching her limbs in the cockpit.

"Captain, here, drink some water..."

As soon as Li Meng sat down, Zhao Yuyan walked into the cab with a glass of water.

Taking off his helmet and putting it on his legs, Li Meng took the cup from Zhao Yuyan and took a big sip.

After taking a sip of water, Li Meng said to Zhao Yuyan, "Thank you for your help."

With a slight smile, Zhao Yuyan shook her head, said nothing more, and turned to leave the cab.

Not long after Zhao Yuyan left, Wei Qiunan came back. She took off her helmet after entering the cab, took a deep breath, and sat down on the seat behind the driver's seat.

As the Heavy Cavalry Guard returned, the door of the rear compartment slowly closed outside.

"Captain, why do we have to wait for two days? Isn't it better to end it earlier?"

In Zhao Hongwen's opinion, it is not difficult for the heavy cavalry guards to attack the shelter. Why does the captain have to wait for two days?

Holding the water cup in both hands, Li Meng looked at the snowy road and houses outside the window, and said: "It is naturally not difficult to attack the shelter by force, but they will resist and fight to the death. In their eyes, everyone outside is an enemy. They must protect the shelter. They will fight to the death. Once we attack at this time, it will cause a massacre."

With a faint smile, Li Meng turned his head and looked at Zhao Hongwen with a weird face, and said with a smile: "You must be thinking in your heart, I have caused a lot of killings, do you still care about a massacre?"

At the captain's words, Zhao Hongwen smiled awkwardly and touched his nose.

He really thought so in his heart, because just now, the captain had a massacre-like battle against the enemy.

The smile on his face disappeared, and Li Meng looked out the window again, saying, "Kill those who should be killed, and I won't force myself to pull the trigger on those who shouldn't be killed. The people in the shelter are different from those outside. Those outside are invaders. As invaders, we are naturally hostile to them. Since they are enemies, killing is inevitable, but those in the shelter are different. They are just fighting to protect their homes. Using force against them is the last resort. Before using force, I will give them a chance to choose."

Speaking of this, Li Meng paused and continued, "The enemy is outside. They will be panic-stricken and their spirits will remain in a highly concentrated and tense state. At most two days, they will be exhausted. When we appear again, they will have a war-weariness in their hearts, and the possibility of peaceful surrender will be greater."

It turned out that the captain's purpose of taking a two-day break was this, and everyone understood it.

That's right. The enemy is outside the door and can break in at any time. In such an environment, no one can stand the long-term fear and collapse sooner or later.

"Captain, if the shelter was originally a military base, there should be more than one exit. They will definitely send people to observe the situation outside. They should soon know that the enemy outside has left."

The speaker was Wei Qiunan, who was sitting in the back seat and staring at Li Meng with her beautiful eyes.

With a faint smile, Li Meng said: "The enemy left for no reason, which will make them more worried. If they can't break the door this time, will they be able to break the door next time?"

Hearing this, Wei Qiunan suddenly realized that her face turned red. It was the captain's careful thinking. Why didn't she think of this?

"Captain, what will they do, migrate?"

Zhang Qingshan’s voice rang through the communicator.

Everyone's chat has been going on in the team channel and everyone can hear it.

Li Mengdao: "The scale of the military base in Shuangfeng Mountain should be quite large. It has a history of almost two hundred years. Digging holes deeply and accumulating grain widely were the slogans of the time when such facilities were built. This shelter has the foundation to feed a large population. , if the population is large, they have nowhere to escape and no other place to go, they can only fight to the death.”

Perhaps this is the original sin of weakness.

Listening to the team channel and the exchange between the captain and others, everyone thought of the shelter they used to live in.

Qing'an Sanctuary, Daguan Sanctuary, and Yingjiang Sanctuary are not weak. The only thing they are thankful for is that the shelter they are in peacefully surrendered to Black Flag City, and that's how they are today.

The captain is right, if they become stronger and no longer weak, they will not care about the lives of others.

In the past, they were also underground people, struggling in this disaster world. They should do something more noble and meaningful to let them join the big family of Black Flag City.

At least compared to the disastrous world outside, Black Flag City is a good home.
