Sword Emperor reborn in the last days

Chapter 85 Resident and Busy

The location that Ling Chen chose was not within the safe zone of the upper city. The safe zone was too small, with more than 10 million people barely able to fit in, and many high-rise buildings, so he would not join in the fun. The most important thing was that Dongfang

The original sphere of influence of the family was not in the inner city, and after the destruction of the Dugu family, its influence was quickly divided by others. If you want the various forces, big and small, to spit out the meat they have eaten, it will inevitably require a lot of blood, and this is not necessary at all.

Early the next morning, which is the first day of the Lunar New Year, countless people began to board boats, turned north and then east along the river. They entered the Gudong River and drove north for a distance before landing, and then continued eastward. That's right.

, the location chosen by Ling Chen is in the northeast of the outer city of Shangcheng. There is a large area of ​​land here and it is far away from densely populated areas.

Ling Chen stood on the bow deck and did not follow the first wave of departure. The ships under his feet were all hired from the upper city, which did not cost much. Originally, if more than two million people wanted to be transported there, it would be impossible to take the land route.

It's so easy, but it's even easier when you have a big boat to transport you. On the relatively wide river, you don't have to worry about traffic lights or vehicles suddenly coming out of the side.

There were several awakened captains around him, and Xu Ling blushed when he saw him early in the morning and set off with the first wave of teams. He couldn't tell where the other party had the courage to take the initiative to seduce him last night.

"Brother-in-law, why did you choose this place? It's so far away from the city!"

Just after getting off the boat, Dongfang Liang, who had been waiting on the shore for a long time, saw him at a glance and ran over. Behind him were Dongfang Yue and several veterans of the Dongfang family. These veterans are not old, so they are called veterans.

It's because they have passed the test and proved their loyalty. They can be regarded as old people. At this time, they can finally see the moonlight after the clouds clear.

Subconsciously touching the other person's head, Ling Chen suddenly realized that the person in front of him would be the future head of the Dongfang family. Obviously, this was not appropriate. He put down his hand and said, "Although this is a peripheral abandoned area, the insects

Most of the attacks came from the interior and west of the upper city, so there are not many bugs here, and most of the high-rise buildings have been completely preserved. Moreover, this place was originally mainly a living area, so it would be very comfortable to live in, and there are several rivers around it.

It can block the swarm of insects. Isn't this a good terrain?"

Dongfang Liang scratched his head: "But staying away from the crowd makes people feel very dangerous. In the future, there will be no helpers when facing insects. What if we are surrounded here?"

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Dongfang Liang felt a little relieved after hearing Ling Chen's firm voice. For some reason, after hearing what his brother-in-law said, he inexplicably believed it.

At this time, Dongfang Yue also came over and looked at Ling Chen with a very soft look. She took out a sachet from her arms and handed it over: "This is the sachet I made by myself. There is a jade pendant in it, which can be used to protect your health."

You're safe, I'll help you take it with you."

Seeing Dongfang Yue's raised hands, as if she meant to help him carry them, Ling Chen couldn't help but be silent for a while, which reminded him of another jade pendant...

He stretched out his hand and took the sachet. It was a red sachet with a beautiful pattern embroidered on it. It was two animals and a small river... Ling Chen took a look and put it in his arms, "I still prefer to put it in my arms."

In arms."

Dongfang Yue nodded gently, and the smile on her face became even brighter. Everyone around her was smiling ambiguously, but she ignored Luo Luo and stood there generously. It seemed that Ling Chen was the only one in her eyes.

"Let's go, let's go to the command center. There are still many things to do next. The third wave of insect attacks will come the day after tomorrow. Time is really tight."

Ling Chen waved his hand and everyone set off again.

The command center was temporarily arranged in a luxury hotel, just over a mile away from the shore. This was mainly to ensure that when the insect swarm counterattacked, it could effectively play the role of command and not be the first to be lost.

"Everyone below will take action, with only one goal - to dig the river. In addition to the road bridge, we must dig our current area into a favorable terrain surrounded by water. Although it looks like it is almost natural on the map.

It's surrounded by water, that's why I chose this place

This is one of the reasons, but the width of some rivers is not enough and needs to be further enlarged. In our own safety zone, there are still several rivers that need to be dug longer and wider, and we strive to achieve a large square with multiple small squares.

!Although time is tight, you must complete it within two days."

Ling Chen stood in the conference room and issued orders to the captains of his subordinates. This was not a meeting in the strict sense, so the vice-captains were also eligible to participate.

"Guan Ying, since you have outstanding river digging ability, the area your brigade is responsible for is also the most important. We need to dig a river channel and lead the inland river southward into the Yangjing River to form a river to the east of the command center.

Barrier. This river needs to cross two residential areas, with a straight-line distance of more than 6 meters. The task is very difficult. Can it be completed if appropriate means of blasting gunpowder can be used?"

"no problem!"

Guan Ying stood up from her seat, suddenly tilted her head and said, "But Brother Commander, it's so hard to dig the river, can you give me some reward afterwards and compete with me once?"

Ling Chen's face darkened: "Nonsense, this is business, no bargaining, take your people to work quickly."

After sending Guan Ying away, Ling Chen assigned the tasks one by one, until only Zhou and Li were left.

"Xiao Ling, what do we do? Although our arms and legs are old, we can still play some role." Zhou and Li were obviously a little dissatisfied with their free time, so they stood up and asked for errands.

"Two elders, don't worry, I will certainly not forget you, and your mission is also very important." Ling Chen said with a smile.

"What mission?" The two looked at each other and asked.

"It's not that easy to settle down temporarily for a population of two million. People can choose their own places to live, but disputes are prone to occur. This requires Commander Li to lead a part of the army to maintain order."

Mr. Li nodded after hearing this, but then said another thing: "Xiao Ling, don't call me Mr. Li anymore. How long has it been? Mr. is the previous title. From now on, just call me Lao Li."

.”

Ling Chen made sense after hearing this, but calling him Lao Li seemed a little inappropriate: "Then I'll call you Commander Li from now on. The commander can have real power or honor. This negotiation with the Shangcheng military,

Thank you for your hard work."

"Haha, they are all old friends. We have known each other for so many years. They all know each other well, which gives me some face. I basically can't help with the specific negotiation matters. They are all discussed by your subordinates."

Ling Chen smiled and said: "Having your face is the greatest help."

"Old Li has something to do, so what am I going to do?" Mayor Zhou was watching the two of them chatting. He didn't get any tasks for a long time, so he immediately stopped working.

"Mayor Zhou, don't worry!" Ling Chen turned around, "With the food we have now, after reducing the population pressure of one million and getting support from the upper city, we should be able to sustain it for a long time, right? Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year.

, It’s not easy for everyone to come here, and we have to work urgently today and tomorrow. I plan to distribute some New Year’s goods to everyone and let everyone live a happier life in the apocalypse. What do you think?”

"Oh, is today the first day of the Lunar New Year?" Mayor Zhou's face showed a trace of surprise and surprise, "Then the relationship is good, Xiaoling is more thoughtful, and memory is not easy to use when people get old, so how about the specific distribution per person?

How much do you plan to do?”

"I'll leave everything to you. I won't interfere too much. Mayor Zhou should still command the original police force. By the way, if there are not enough manpower to dig the river, we can offer a reward in the form of food. But a reward is a reward.

We cannot take the opportunity to deprive people of their New Year goods." Ling Chen added.

"Don't worry, how could I do that?" Mayor Zhou said deliberately angrily, "You should know who I am."

"Well, I'll leave the matter to you two."
