Chapter 244: The future fate

When Li Yeling saw Xu Shouyi's expression, he thought to himself that this is also an uneducated person.

However, Xiaoqing made great contributions today, and after some days, the monster actually became a little attached to him. Li Yeling could feel its attachment from the telepathy of a person and a snake.

Li Yeling smiled and gently stroked its cold scales, saying, "Xiaoqing, you are no longer educated now! There is a poem by Ming people: 'The cold rain is not heard in the window, and you can't watch the peony pavilion with a lamp. There are also people in the world who are fooled by me, but it's just that Xiaoqing is sad!'. The two words Xiaoqing have a lot of origin, so don't be dissatisfied."

Of course, this was fabricated by Li Yeling. The image of Xiaoqing first appeared in Feng Menglong of the Ming Dynasty's "White Snake Yongzhen Leifeng Pagoda". Although the literati's lyrics and sentences were extremely particular, they did not have to pay attention to the quotation of classics and classics, which was such a big deal.

Although it was fabricated, Li Yeling was very knowledgeable and could read allusions and poems at will. This is quite clear.

Xu Shouyi was immediately frightened by him and couldn't help but sigh: "Captain Li, you are not only strong, but also so knowledgeable. I really admire you."

When Li Yeling saw Xiaoqing's head swaying, his big eyes turned around. He knew that it agreed with his explanation, and he couldn't help but feel even more surprised. This big green python had lived for many years, and he didn't know how smart he was. He almost had a little before him, but after being subdued, perhaps because of his spiritual connection, his IQ increased linearly, and he could even understand the poem.

Li Yeling smiled and said, "It's good that Chairman Xu calls me Yeling. I'll just follow you in the future. I can't afford it anyway!"

Xu Shouyi smiled and said, "That's true, Ye Ling, we are not secretly talking about it. If you are so powerful, I will naturally not regard you as an ordinary subordinate. We are of peer relationships and have equal status. You are the kind of guest minister I invited back. How about it?"

Li Yeling thought to himself that this person was quite happy and said very clearly. He valued himself like this because he was strong. If he was weak, he would probably not look at him directly. However, this kind of person made him like him even more. He would say everything openly, so he would not be able to hide his face at that time.

Li Yeling also smiled heartily: "Okay, then that's it. If there are any major events to be done in the future, Chairman Xu just tells me."

Li Yeling didn't say this all, especially emphasizing the word "major". It obviously means: come to me for major issues in the future, and don't bother me if you have some sesame and small matters.

Xu Shouyi also smiled clearly: "That's natural."

The two agreed on related matters, Li Yeling got the promise he needed, and was in a good mood. Compared to him, Xu Shouyi was even happier. He was suppressed by Lin Hongda for a long time and could not turn over. Moreover, his strength was at a disadvantage and could not be changed. This time, Li Yeling's appearance made him see a good opportunity, an opportunity to change the status quo.

And he was not afraid that Li Yeling would repent or have other plans. If a great man like Li Yeling had no ambitions in his heart, it would be strange. He was not afraid of having ambitions, as long as the interests of the two people were unified, he was not afraid that he would not work hard for himself. What's more, Xu Shouyi was not without a trump card. Li Yeling's life is that he was the family, not alone. With these people in hand, it would be equivalent to hundreds of more hostages.

Before Li Yeling came, he had already let the shadow retreat. Shadow was a killer move he used to suppress Li Yeling. Although the two were far apart in strength, Shadow was good at assassination and lurking, and often could kill a stronger man much stronger than himself. As the two of them, it would be better not to meet now.

Xu Shouyi smiled and said, "Ye Ling, I'm so proud. From now on, I'll call you Brother Li. Don't call me Chairman Xu. It would be so remarkable. Just call me Brother Xu. How about it?"

Li Yeling smiled and said, "Brother Xu, then I'm not polite."

Xu Shouyi smiled generously and pointed his right hand forward: "Brother Li, come with me to the city wall. Since I have entered our Iron Town, I will be a family. Come on, I will give you some advice on the country of our Iron Town!"

Although he is not amazing in appearance, he has been at the top for a long time and naturally cultivates the aura of a superior person. There is a sense of heroism between his eyebrows, which makes him impressed.

Li Yeling put the big green python into the monster talisman. Seeing the huge big green python suddenly disappear, although he knew that it was Li Yeling that it was mysterious, Xu Shouyi still exclaimed.

Li Yeling smiled and reached out to lead forward. Xu Shouyi was not polite. He walked up first. Li Yeling followed him and the two climbed up the stairs. Just this subtle action and a small detail had already established the distribution of the status of Li Yeling during his time in Steel Town. In any case, Xu Shouyi was still in the dominant position.

The city wall is very high and wide, but the city wall is more than 20 meters high, but it is more than 30 meters thick. This is a typical Chinese ancient city wall construction method. The thickness is far greater than the height, and it is as stable as a rock. The surface of the city wall is made of fiery red giant stones. Each of the huge stones is two or three meters long and about one meter wide, with traces of axes on it, obviously not long after it was dug.

A female wall was built on the city wall behind the battlements, with complete defense functions.

In the middle of the city wall, a four-lane wide road was built, which could accommodate several large trucks in parallel, which played the role of dispatching troops.

On the reinforced concrete city wall, every twenty meters there is a square tower made of large bluestone made of large bluestone. The side of the tower is less than ten meters long, and there are several black holes of gun holes on each side, up, down, and left and right. The black black heavy machine gun is half hidden between the shooting holes, silently watching all the movements in the wilderness.

The entrance of the cave was shining with the light of the heavy machine gun. Li Yeling had no doubt that even himself, he would definitely be alive in the shooting of these countless heavy machine guns.

Along the way, Li Yeling became more and more shocked when he looked at it. The wall of the reinforced concrete body, with huge stones as the surface, as hard as steel. The tower made of large bluestone is like a hard thorn, forming the most hideous part of this perfect defense system. The defense system of the entire Steel Town is like an extremely huge steel hedgehog without any flaws.

Although it has not been completely completed, its hideous fangs have been revealed.

Feeling the female wall beside the inside, Li Yeling sighed: "This steel town is worthy of its name. It is really solid and really like steel."

Xu Shouyi smiled and showed a look of pride on his face. Although Lin Hongda is undoubtedly dominant in the entire Steel Town, Xu Shouyi is also a person that must not be ignored. Moreover, compared with Lin Hongda, an outsider, Xu Shouyi, who has been here for many years, has a stronger relationship with Steel Town and a deeper attachment. Steel Town is a place to start and a strong rear for Lin Hongda, but for Xu Shouyi, it is a home.

This city wall was designed by him and then built with Lin Hongda, which was also his hard work. At this moment, Li Yeling praised it, and he was also honored.

Xu Shouyi walked to Li Yeling, pointed to the iron town, and said, "Brother Li, can you see any mystery?"

Li Yeling looked at it and saw that the layout of the steel town was a typical layout of the mining city after the founding of China.

A street about 100 meters wide starts from the city gate, heading straight north to the end of the city. The entire city is divided into two halves by this north-south street, with this as the main road, and there are many branch roads on both sides, and then there are many alleys on these branches. These roads form the traffic veins of the entire city, like capillaries in the human body.

Each of the city's blocks is square and very regular, just like a yard from the Han and Tang dynasties. It can be seen that this has been carefully planned.

The city faces north and south, divided into two halves by the North and South Streets. These two halves are completely different. The streets in Dongcheng District obviously look more prosperous. There are many shops and pedestrians on the street. Although it is not said to be full of traffic, it is also a rare prosperous scene in the apocalypse.

Xicheng District has two opposite styles. There are almost no pedestrians on the entire huge street of Xicheng District except for the soldiers patrolling everywhere with live ammunition. Occasionally, one or two pedestrians pass by, and they are in a hurry and look very busy.

After looking at it for a while, Li Yeling knew it in his heart and said, "Brother Xu, if I guessed correctly, Dongcheng District should be your sphere of influence, while Xicheng District is Lin Hongda's sphere of influence, right?"

Xu Shouyi nodded and praised, "Brother Li has a good eye and is right. You should also know the grudge between Lin Wei and Lin Hongda. Although it seems to be reconciled now, in fact, it is still open and secretly fighting. Both of us control half of the urban area, and the well water does not violate the river. The city management committee we established is only aimed at outside, and it is still clear in our own home."

He snorted and continued: "Lin Hongda is a veteran soldier. He advocates people like machines and treats everyone under his control into a machine-like existence. Everyone must work day and night in the factory, otherwise there will be no food, no clothes, and no house to live in. He uses the severe punishment and law to control his subordinates. If someone spits everywhere on the road, he will have his tongue cut off. If someone steals things, it will be Lingchi. Tsk, the severe punishment and law are not inferior to the tyrant Qin!"

Li Yeling shook his head and said disapprovingly: "He can indeed have a certain effect in a short period of time, but over time, the disadvantages will be revealed. Suppressing people with severe punishments will be extremely stressed and resentment will gradually grow. I am afraid that the army will be disinterested. Once something changes happen, a fire will immediately spread and the situation will be unstoppable."

Xu Shouyi agreed: "Brother Li said it well. Although I also need people to work and work, the rules and regulations need to be much more relaxed. You can tell from the market. In this way, although the crime rate increases, the overall work efficiency can be greatly improved, which is not inferior to that in the past."

Xu Shouyi continued: "When we had civil war, I dug out so many people from his military field. Why? He treated soldiers as tools, and everything was collective. To put it bluntly, it was his. But I really treated soldiers as humans and brothers, so my brothers were willing to follow me! Later, there was an advantage in the number of people on both sides, but why did we have a stalemate for so long? It was because his soldiers were machines. Although the machines were rigorous and would not make mistakes, they did not have morale. My brothers were different. Behind them was their home, their parents, wives and children, so they sacrificed their lives, so in the end, we won."

Li Yeling listened quietly, and suddenly smiled: "It is a great merit to be able to provide people with a place to live and work in this end of the world. Chairman Xu, you are the real man."

Xu Shouyi waved his hand: "I won't mention this anymore, I won't mention this anymore."

He pointed to a place in the city and said, "Brother Li, have you seen anywhere? That's the place you arranged for you. How about it? Let's take you to see later?"

Li Yeling looked at it and found that it was a large-scale house with active land, located on the east side of Dongcheng District. The house was positive and large, almost occupying an entire block, with rows of bungalows inside, which looked like it had been a few years.

Xu Shouyi said: "This was originally a dormitory for the employees of the steel factory. Later, high-rise buildings were built in the factory and buildings were built, and these bungalows were abandoned. I was originally thinking about demolition, but later a catastrophe occurred and there was no time."

Li Yeling nodded: "Thank you, Brother Xu."

Looking at the house and looking at the people who entered the city through the fence passage between two huge steel pillars, Li Yeling fell into deep thought.

After entering the Steel Town, although it solved a major survival problem for the team, it also pushed itself to an awkward position, and some problems must be solved.

First of all, it is the problem of getting along with Liu Honggang in the future.

Originally, although Li Yeling had an absolute advantage in strength between the two, because Li Yeling joined late, and he was willing to do so, the entire team has always been dominated by Liu Honggang. Facts have proved that such an arrangement is effective. Liu Honggang led and Li Yeling has strong independence at the same time, and the two have always cooperated well.

Joining the Iron Town was proposed by Liu Honggang and it was also the fundamental goal of the entire team in the previous period. If there is no problem with joining smoothly and nothing goes wrong, then of course everyone will be happy. Liu Honggang is still in the dominant position, and the relationship between the two is still the same.

But there was a big mistake in the middle. Liu Honggang's former comrades turned against each other and faced danger Liu Honggang was helpless. If it weren't for Li Yeling, the entire team would have disappeared. The scene that happened just now greatly enhanced Li Yeling's prestige and also made Liu Honggang lose face. In this way, not only ordinary team members were extremely dissatisfied with him, but even the armed police under his command would have some opinions.

This forced Li Yeling to face a problem: who should be the master and who should be the master in the team.

To avoid this question and pretend not to know, of course it is not possible. Not to mention what you are thinking in your heart, just talking about Liu Honggang, there must be a thorn in his heart. This is human nature and is absolutely inevitable.

If you want to talk about the solution, the simplest thing is to kill the matter with one knife. With his current prestige and absolute control in the team, the chance of a mutiny in the team is extremely small, and the feasibility is still very high. However, as soon as this sign appeared, it was directly rejected by Li Yeling. Not to mention how Liu Honggang was treating him and what his purpose was. If it weren't for Liu Honggang, there would be no one who he is today. In the days of Liu Honggang's team, his strength has increased greatly. It can be said that he has gone through a relatively difficult period. This is kindness!

Besides, when you think of Liu Honggang, the figure of Liu Qing in Li Yeling's mind is lingering. If she killed her husband, how would she deal with herself?

Li Yeling shook his head, as if he wanted to clear these emotions out of his mind. For him, although this matter was awkward, it still had a few days to buffer, but another thing was imminent.

Where should the entire team go?

There are nearly a thousand people left in An Qiwai's team. Among these people, in addition to those who have been selected by the student guards, there are still nine hundred people left, and 90% of these people are, that is, more than 800 are girls.

There is no doubt that girls are an absolutely vulnerable group in the end of the world. They have poor physical strength, poor psychological quality, and they are even weak enough to not even be able to pick up guns. There is no era where physical fitness is so important to a person. In the end of the world, women can only be vassals and toys for men.

All the girls from An Qiwai are all in good looks, and there are even more beautiful ones. If it weren't for Li Yeling, you can imagine how miserable the fate of these girls would be, and they would basically become slaves or prostitutes. Perhaps, those with beautiful appearances and beautiful appearances would be favored by some powerful people, and they would have lived a better life. At the beginning, Liu Honggang brought these cumbersome girls with these cumbersome girls, probably had the idea of ​​using these women to make friends with the steel to suppress the powerful people.

Now that Li Yeling has become the real power and person in charge of the team, he naturally has to assume this part of the responsibility.

Now the fate of these people is in his hands.
