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

In the apocalypse, the most powerful force is the gun. As the saying goes, power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

Although it hasn't reached that point in the current apocalypse, the collapse of social order is evident.

Therefore, Li Ming maintains a strong armed force not only to protect his own industries but also to maintain relatively stable social order in his territory.

Another more important reason is to use the army to maintain his own interests.

This incident proves that if Li Ming didn't have a strong military force to protect him, the credibility of the integral tickets would likely have been destroyed by this group of people.

The integral ticket is a very important link for Li Ming. As long as the value of the integral ticket remains strong and its credit stable, when everyone believes that this thing can serve as a general equivalent, Li Ming can collect seigniorage.

With the ability to amplify materials a hundredfold, coupled with his powerful military strength, it can be said that he is invincible, forming a perfect closed loop.

Li Ming had planned it this way in reality, but this group of people messed it up. Fortunately, Li Ming's intelligence department was effective and immediately destroyed this group. All the heads of the private bases involved were chopped off.

The beheadings served as a warning, which shocked many restless forces.

Similar incidents also occurred across the country, but Li Ming's integral tickets, in terms of manufacturing difficulty, were no less than normal currency. It can be said that counterfeiting and forgery were very difficult.

Thus, many forces began to target some small-denomination integral tickets, but these forces were wiped out by the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce's army as soon as they acted.

It was another bloody storm. It can be said that every large-scale deployment of Li Ming's army brought a lot of casualties. Of course, these people deserved to die.

Disrupting the economic order that Li Ming had worked so hard to create, who else but these people deserves to die?

At this time, within a civil force alliance composed of 30,000 remnant imperial troops, these matters were also being discussed.

"Commander, the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce's people are too bloody in their actions!" An officer expressed his opinion.

The middle-aged man in his forties, sitting at the head of the table, didn't show any change in expression upon hearing this. He said calmly, "Xiao Li, you need to understand our current situation. This is the end of the world. Drastic times call for drastic measures. The Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce provides about 60-70% of the materials on the market. Do you know what ordinary survivors will face without these materials?"

"Without their survival materials, most of the ordinary survivors you see would not be able to survive, understand? The most terrible thing about the end of the world is not natural disasters but man-made disasters."

"The Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce is gradually establishing a new social order. Even if the means are bloody, at least their direction is not wrong, which is to restore a relatively stable social order. Disorder is the most terrifying, especially under our operating mechanism of a large government and a small society."

The officer opened his mouth as if wanting to say something. At this time, an older officer spoke, "Commander, you are right. Objectively speaking, those base leaders of private bases who were severely打击by the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce really deserved to die. We also have good military power. Should we also follow their approach and launch打击against some illegal private bases?"

"Hmm?" The middle-aged man pondered, "Your suggestion is good. Doing so can allow us to obtain more survival materials and ensure that more ordinary survivors survive. Immediately arrange for the intelligence department to select targets."

"I really underestimated the intelligence capabilities of the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce!"

"Commander, their intelligence capabilities?" The young adjutant asked in confusion.

"Hehe, the intelligence capabilities of the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce are really terrifying. As soon as some trends appear on the market, they immediately take action, nipping all dangers in the bud. Without excellent intelligence capabilities, it is impossible to打击so accurately. Amazing!" The middle-aged man said with emotion.

"Commander, won't we be moving the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce's cheese by doing this?" Another imperial officer asked.

"Hehe, no. From the current situation, the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce should still only be thinking about maintaining stability within their own territory. I don't know if you have noticed that every time the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce's army is dispatched, it is basically because someone has touched their interests."

"To some extent, although these people are private soldiers, it must be admitted that they are very disciplined. They are not an army that likes to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Our solving of some eyesore private bases is essentially a way of maintaining social order. They will not object, but will be happy to see it happen."

"From the current actions, they are essentially still a chamber of commerce, and I am sure that they definitely have their own industrial processing and manufacturing capabilities. They seem to only be enthusiastic about doing business, and they don't seem to be interested in establishing a regime themselves."

The officer was puzzled after hearing this, "Commander, from their current actions, it feels like their actions are no different from a regime? Such as launching strict crackdown operations or something."

"Hehe, Xiao Feng, you are wrong. This essentially still stems from interests. They are a chamber of commerce, and what they pursue is profit. It is undeniable that they have a powerful armed force, but the essence of their launching strict crackdowns is to ensure that they have the most potential customers. It can be said that every living survivor is their potential customer."

"Even we are their potential customers. They are using their industrial production and manufacturing capabilities by having the vast number of survivors go out to collect everything useful as raw materials, then producing products and selling them."

"All of this is essentially more of a commercial behavior, and the political meaning is not strong. How should I describe it? They are a miniature model of the Tianying Empire, with profit driving everything."

"Of course, they do have the strength to establish a regime, but from the current situation, I don't know why, they have never been willing to establish a regime. This is indeed very strange!" The military commander also looked puzzled.

"Cough cough!" An officer with the rank of brigadier general cleared his throat, "Commander, do you think they feel that the time is not yet ripe to establish a regime?"

"Eh? You know what, from their current actions, everything is leaning towards this aspect, but they have never publicly established a regime. Could it be that this natural disaster will continue to last? Will there be different natural disasters?"
