In the Apocalypse, Hoarding Supplies with the System's Hundredfold Critical Hits

To be honest, generally speaking, why do countries prioritize sending troops to disaster areas after natural disasters?

Relief is only one aspect; another reason is to deploy troops to maintain social order.

Even in peaceful modern times, some people dare to loot during major natural disasters, let alone in the apocalypse?

If the previous petty crimes were small-scale, based on a building unit, restricted by floods, and mainly oppressed the people in that building, then with the advent of extreme cold, it has become easier for everyone to go out and search for supplies.

The criminal gangs have also grown stronger with the deteriorating climate, and their continuous expansion has seriously threatened the survival of ordinary survivors.

These ordinary survivors are still very useful to Li Ming. At the very least, you need to eat and drink to survive, right?

Moreover, Li Ming also needs survivors to help him collect supplies to exchange for his survival resources. In a sense, this group of survivors can also be considered his potential customers.

From a capital perspective, it can be said that these criminal gangs have seriously affected Li Ming's plan and damaged his interests.

For Li Ming, whether it is to maintain the stability of social order or to allow more people to survive to see the day of civilization's reconstruction, the crackdown on crime is imperative.

Especially since these criminal gangs dared to attack his own army, they must die!

These criminal gangs can absolutely be described as lawless and unscrupulous. They collect protection grain in the community, three pounds of protection grain per person per week, and the consequences are severe if you can't provide it.

Young men and women are taken out by these people to be used for others' amusement, while middle-aged and elderly people have to find ways to go out and find supplies themselves.

Of course, if you ordinary survivors are not satisfied, you can leave the community. Without a shelter, the ultimate result is either freezing to death or starving to death.

This kind of criminal behavior is ubiquitous in every corner of the world, not just in Malga City.

In the absence of an imperial government, criminal gangs across the country have expanded dramatically.

Against this backdrop, Li Ming decided to launch a bloody purge against these criminal gangs.

As the army moved out, a massive force of more than 20,000 people entered Malga City, immediately shocking all the survivors. A force of more than 20,000 people!

Soon, some survivors began to recognize the uniforms of Li Ming's army. It turned out to be the army of the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce. They actually have a force of 20,000 people?

However, ordinary survivors were not afraid because, based on the known situation, the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce, although powerful, never oppressed ordinary survivors.

Otherwise, with their powerful force, wouldn't it be easy to enslave this group of ordinary survivors by force?

Many survivors vaguely felt that this large army entering the city was likely related to the bandits who were wiped out not long ago. Could it be that the army is going to take action against the criminal gangs?

If this is the case, it would be good news.

The fact was indeed as they guessed. The army of the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce broke up into smaller units, with companies and platoons as the basic units, and launched a bloody cleansing against these criminal gangs and violent forces with the firepower support of wheeled armored vehicles, assault guns, and infantry guns.

Frankly speaking, the criminal gangs and violent forces could bully ordinary people with the weapons in their hands, but they were nothing when they encountered a real army!

Under the cleansing of Li Ming's army, a bloody cleansing was carried out in various communities in the entire Malga City. Anyone who colluded with the criminal gangs would be arrested.

As for the lairs of the criminal gangs and violent forces, they were directly attacked and besieged.

Clearing one community after another, under this step-by-step approach, it can be said that the criminal gangs and violent forces in the entire Malga were basically cleared by Li Ming's army.

The number of criminal gang members arrested alone was as high as 500,000, and the number of criminal gang members killed in the battle was as high as several million.

This operation lasted for nearly a month. After the end of this month's battle, everyone in the entire Malga City was terrified.

Li Ming's army was simply killing like crazy. Criminal gangs were destroyed one after another. All the criminal gang members, except for those who were killed, were basically arrested and held in open-air outdoor areas under guard.

Li Ming didn't have so much time to talk about laws or anything with the criminal gangs. All he wanted was to restore social order. In this crackdown, nearly ten thousand large and small criminal gang organizations were bloodily cleared.

When the last batch of criminal gangs was arrested, Li Ming's army directly conducted a public trial, convening a public trial conference to try these criminal gangs.

Many survivors were very happy when they heard that the army of the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce was going to conduct a public trial of the criminal gangs, and they all came to watch the excitement.

After all, this was a live public trial of these thugs and criminal gangs.

At this moment, it cannot be said that there are no remaining criminal gangs in the entire Malga City, but these forces have basically been frightened by Li Ming's bloody methods and dare not cause trouble again.

These soldiers are too ruthless. Basically, any organization or individual involved in crime will be subjected to relentless打击 and cleansing.

The public trial conference began at 10:00 AM on February 10, 2026, of the Solar Calendar.

Although all the survivors were frightened by Li Ming's bloody methods at this time, the fear disappeared a lot when they thought that these methods were used on those criminal gangs who were doing evil.

Everyone saw the actions of the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce. Regardless of the other party's purpose, the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce was working hard to maintain order.

This made the survivors in despair have a little more hope for the terrible apocalypse and wanted to continue to work hard to live.

Live to the day the apocalypse ends!

The public trial officially began at ten o'clock in the morning. There were so many survivors watching the public trial, and the entire Malga City had suffered from criminal gangs for a long time.

Especially these ordinary survivors, except for a few communities that huddled together for survival, who hadn't been bullied? Now that they learned that many criminal gangs such as Sihai Men and Tulong Society were about to usher in the end, the survivors were all out in the streets.

As long as the warmth conditions were in place, everyone came to Heroes Square, wanting to witness the end of these people who had done many evils.

On the other hand, they also wanted to know if the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce could return the supplies that had been robbed.

At this time, Heroes Square was crowded with people, and there were crowds of heads everywhere. If you look closely from the sky, it feels like a group of ants, densely packed.

In the wet and cold winter of minus forty degrees, the survivors wrapped themselves up like bears, only showing their noses, mouths, and eyes.

In the center of the square, there was a reinforced regiment of more than 3,000 soldiers maintaining order. All the soldiers were armed with live ammunition. In such an environment, no one dared to make trouble.

After all, many survivors had witnessed the battle of the army's bloody cleansing of the criminal gangs some time ago. It was really a ruthless hand, fearing that they would kill too few of these criminal gangs.......
