Chapter 335 The eldest son conspired to pull the banner into a tiger's skin

Unlike the mountainous areas in northern Shanxi, the terrain of this area is generally dominated by plains, but there are endless low hills above.

These hills are the best place to build defense lines. Each hill is at a height of 20 or 30 meters or more. There are almost bunkers on the top, on the hillside, and behind the hill. From a distance, it looks like ants on the sand, densely packed, making people feel heartbroken.

From a distance, this is a sea of ​​bunkers.

The outermost bunker defense line, which is the end of the hills, is a highly protected checkpoint, with hundreds of soldiers patrolling and on duty. These soldiers are wearing brand new military uniforms from the old era, and they are also standard weapons of the old era army. Suddenly, Li Yeling felt like he was returning to that era that had passed.

The military vehicles with the General Staff sign were naturally unobstructed, not to mention that Wang Zhiyang, a celebrity in the General Staff, was here. The captain company commander on duty saluted Wang Zhiyang and let him go.

Between the hills, a tar road about ten meters wide winds forward. Since there are hills on both sides, the tar road is not straight and you can't see the scene far ahead. You can only see that on the hillsides on both sides, countless bunkers stand tall.

The convoy moved forward slowly, and Li Yeling became more and more clear. There were many small holes one foot square on the surface of these bunkers, and the black muzzle sticking out from it, silently intimidating. There were also some holes half a meter square, and the black gun barrel stretched out. Li Yeling recognized that it was a domestic 37mm caliber dual-mounted rapid-fire cannon and a 76mm rapid-fire cannon.

This small-caliber cannon with extremely fast firing speed complements each other when used in a narrow terrain.

Seeing Li Yeling looking at the bunker group outside the window, Wang Zhiyang, who was driving next to him, smiled and said, "Each of these bunkers is eight meters high, ten meters in diameter, and one meter thick in the wall. The inside is reinforced concrete, the outside is made of large bluestone from northern Shanxi, and the outermost yellow paint is fireproof paint. There are 23,000 such bunkers around Phoenix City!"

"Twenty-three thousand?" Li Yeling took a deep breath. The project volume of a bunker is hundreds of cubic meters, and the actual energy required for this bunker is not only measured by the project volume. There are also foundation laying, arranging manpower, arranging weapons defense, formulating tactics, etc. Just for the human hand, there are at least one squad of people in a bunker. Then these 20,000 bunkers mean that Phoenix City just doesn't know the staff of the bunker group, which has reached a huge 230,000!

Li Yeling sighed: "I don't know how big the world is if I don't come out. Today I've opened my eyes. Phoenix City is really amazing. How long will it take for this bunker group to be built? In terms of scale, it's probably more than the Maginot Line built in France."

"Magino Line of Defense? After all, it happened a few decades ago. It is certain that it surpassed them, but this is not a credit to our Phoenix City. This military base was built in the old days. It started in the 1950s and lasted a few years ago, and it was not surprising that it had been built for more than 50 years. It was of such a large scale."

Li Yeling suddenly realized that no wonder that it was indeed not difficult to build such a grand military base with the national strength of the original Republic.

"What you said you saw was just the protective force on the surface around Phoenix City. In fact, there are many facilities underground, and almost all of these hills were hollowed out." Wang Zhiyang said another thing that shocked Li Yeling.

Walking slowly along the way, there were many vehicles on the road, most of which were trucks and military vehicles. When I saw these three military vehicles with General Secretariat license plates, I honestly gave way.

The depth of the bunker group was very long. After walking for more than ten minutes, after passing five checkpoints, he saw the towering city wall of Phoenix City. Li Yeling estimated that the thickness of the bunker group in Phoenix City was five kilometers, and these five kilometers could almost be called the five kilometers of death. If the enemy attacked, he would probably have to pay a huge price for every step forward.

Phoenix City is like Steel Town, and there are also city walls outside, but compared with other people, it is a big witch. The city wall is thick, 60 meters high and about the same thickness. There are bunkers, towers, and artillery towers on the city walls, and the defense is very strict, like a huge iron hedgehog.

Through the deep cave-like city gate, Li Yeling entered the city wall, and Li Yeling saw the scenery he had never seen in the end of the world.

The streets lined up, the layers of buildings, the pedestrians who were leisurely and contented on the road, the congested traffic, the neon lights shining everywhere, and the huge noisy sound, as if this prosperous world invaded Li Yeling in an instant without warning.

All are high-rise buildings, and there are almost no buildings below five floors. Each building is made of heavy bluestone. It looks thick and clumsy. Although it looks a bit monotonous, it is an absolute high-rise building.

This is not the end of the world? It is clearly a modern metropolis!

Three Hummers quietly integrated into the rolling world. Sitting in the car and looking out, Phoenix City was obviously much more prosperous than Wuyun City. Various billboards and shop signs on the buildings on both sides occupied a lot of the sky above the streets.

It was already evening, and the sky was slightly dark, and the street lights on both sides of the street began to light up slowly. The milky yellow lights sprinkled down, bringing a hint of warmth to this cold fortress city. Open the car windows, a gust of cold wind blew, without coldness, only a cool feeling, as if the endless steel forest had filtered out the coldness in the wind, and the wind became much gentler.

Looking at the leisurely and leisurely pedestrians carrying large bags and small bags on both sides, they felt the warm city with lights shining, like a small island in the darkness of the apocalypse. Li Yeling actually felt a touch called warmth in this strange environment. In any case, this Phoenix City provides a refuge for those struggling in this apocalypse.

"There are few buildings in the city below five floors, but there are few more than ten floors. According to previous war experts in the Republic, this height is the most suitable height for street fighting. If someone wants to attack Phoenix City, don't think about not leaving five million dead bodies here!" Wang Zhiyang's faint words exuded a sense of ruthlessness. In his words, Li Yeling felt a little proud. This is the people of Phoenix City who agree with the land they are in.

What did you do to tell me about this? Do you have eye pills? Since getting on the Hummer and Li Yeling and Xia Ruolan took different cars, Wang Zhiyang's attitude has changed a little. From his previous enthusiasm to his lukewarm or even knocking, Li Yeling understood his thoughts. This eldest young master's loyal dog must be afraid that Xia Ruolan would have something to do with him, which would make the eldest young master unhappy.

"How big is this Phoenix City?" Li Yeling answered the question irrelevantly.

"The east-west is 63 kilometers long and the north-south is 50 kilometers wide, and the urban area is 2,300 square kilometers."

"Five million is less." Li Yeling said lightly: "If the defenders are enough and there is no strategic big fork, this urban area may not be able to take down ten million troops."

But if I meet me, it's hard to say, Li Yeling added another sentence in his heart.

"Sir Li has a good attitude." Wang Zhiyang smiled sarcastically.

Li Yeling suddenly turned his head and looked at Wang Zhiyang, feeling a little strange. Even if he really had an affair with Xia Ruolan, are you considered that green onion? Even if you are the most loyal to you, your master is really loyal, but you are the one who is the subordinate...?

Could it be?

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Li Yeling's eyes, and he suddenly said lightly: "Adminton Wang, I think you seem to have misunderstood something, right? But hehe, it is inevitable that others will misunderstand something when I get along with Director Xia in the past few days. But tonight, it is believed that the eldest young master will check on her for checking whether I have cuckolded him. The truth will be revealed."

"You?" Wang Zhiyang's face turned pale in an instant. He stared at Li Yeling as if it was about to spit out fire. A handsome white face instantly became ferocious and terrifying. But Li Yeling saw a trace of pain in his eyes.

"Well, it seems that my guess is really good. Haha, this Xia Ruolan is quite charming!"

After thinking this, Li Yeling suddenly felt aroused his heart, turned his face to look at the car window, and no longer cared about Wang Zhiyang, who was gritting his teeth behind him.

Looking at the cities outside, I deeply feel the difference. It can be seen by the electricity alone. In the end of the world, it is not only the number of troops or the number of weapons, but also the more important indicator of electricity! If a city can achieve the level of unlimited electricity, it means that the city's heavy industry level and energy level have reached an extremely high level, with continuous energy and continuous war potential.

Hummers were rushing around in the traffic, crossing the streets and alleys, and crossing countless intersections. Finally, when the night was already dark and the lights on the streets outside had already shone through the city, they turned into a spacious street.

As soon as he turned into this street, Li Yeling felt something was wrong. In addition to the large number of live-fire guards at the intersection, the entire street was also dark. In addition to the light columns of the red and yellow headlights of the convoy, there were only extremely faint lights in the distance. The tall buildings on both sides also disappeared, replaced by towering vermilion walls. After a while, the convoy approached, Li Yeling discovered that the faint light was the colorful light hanging at the gate of a house.

There are all rich families here, and there are not many portals on the street. Li Yeling felt a stern heart. The master was about to see him. He looked at his watch and it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. When he entered the city just now, it was only around five o'clock, which means he had been driving in the city for five hours. This also shows how large the main body of the city is. You must know that even Anxi City, where Li Yeling originally was, is known as the largest metropolis in the five northwest provinces, it took an hour and a half to cross the entire urban area.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of a high-gate courtyard. Li Yeling got out of the car and looked at the place carefully.

There are high red brick walls with light green glazed tiles on the walls. Every two meters above the courtyard, there are soldiers carrying guns and ammunition guards guarding each two meters. The entrance of the gatehouse, the gate with vermilion nails covered with copper nails, the high steps, and the solemn guards at the door. It gives people the feeling that this is simply a courtyard of ancient princes and nobles.

Xia Ruolan in front also got out of the car and looked at the courtyard with a smile on her face. A thin old man in a suit walked out in the doorman and nodded to Xia Ruolan and smiled: "Director Xia, you are back."

Xia Ruolan also smiled gently: "I have met Uncle Fu!"

The old man is very graceful, thin, but very energetic. He has a decent tuxedo and holds a cane in his hand, looking like an old gentleman in Western countries.

Uncle Fu greeted Wang Zhiyang, Li Yeling and others in turn, with a thorough manner, with a humble and polite face, but not a badass. Li Yeling sighed. Uncle Fu should be the housekeeper of this courtyard, and this is the temperament that can only be cultivated by aristocratic families. He is not as talented as an existence similar to a nouveau riche.

Uncle Fu smiled and said, "Director Xia, Mr. Li, please come in and have a cup of hot tea first. The eldest young master has not come back from the General Staff. I want to ask you to wait for a while. Haha, sorry."

"No! Uncle Fu, have you been brewing tea for a long time? I miss you so much, hehe!" Xia Ruolan's performance made Li Yeling stutter. She held Uncle Fu's hand, acting like a little daughter in front of her father, and Uncle Fu's face was full of a doting smile. This smile was completely different from when facing Li Yeling and Wang Zhiyang. It was a superficial and professional smile, while when facing Xia Ruolan, it was a heartfelt love.

At this time, Xia Ruolan could not see the charming and cruel look at the time, and she was just an innocent little girl.

Uncle Fu patted her hand and smiled and said, "Adminton Wang, Mr. Li, please come in, haha, you girl, stop making trouble, let's make people laugh."

Seeing Xia Ruolan happily walking in with Uncle Fu's hand, the other servants looked respectful when they saw her. Li Yeling thought to himself, it seemed that the relationship between Xia Ruolan and the eldest son did not seem to be as simple as she said!

Luxury is no less than the living room of a five-star hotel, with smoke swelling. Fu Bo’s ability to make kung fu tea is not inferior to that of the old man in the country. The whole process is smooth and beautiful. It seems that these old men with all their necks all have some ability to show off.

Li Yeling and Peanut sat in the seats, drinking tea lightly. Five orc men stood behind him like stakes, motionless and looked like iron.

Although Ming Sutian may not be the same as Li Yeling, he knows the right way. At this time, he should give Li Yeling a face, so he is particularly serious. With such spirit, coupled with their huge heavy firepower weapon, even Fu Uncle who has seen the world, his eyes lit up and he was slightly amazed.

Ten minutes later, Li Yeling finally met the true face of the person who had heard it many times recently.

Before I could see anyone, I heard a burst of heroic laughter. Then, the door of the living room was pushed open and a man in military uniform walked in.

He is very tall, about 1.9 meters tall, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, thick buzz cuts, and hard face lines. He is about thirties, and is the most attractive and young man when he is a man. Li Yeling has to admit that he is a man with a very tasteful and elegant appearance.

The man was very energetic, with a smile on his face, giving people a feeling of extreme heroism. Li Yeling was concerned about the golden lieutenant general's epaulette on his shoulders.

Seeing the big man walking in, Xia Ruolan cheered in surprise, and without any concern about the eyes of everyone present, she threw herself into the arms of the big man like a slutty swallow plunged into the forest.

Uncle Fu looked at the two people hugging, smiled and gently stepped out, and did not forget to bring the door with him. Wang Zhiyang also had a wink and followed him to retreat. For a moment, only Li Yeling and a few people were left in the living room.

Needless to say, this great man is Liu Zeming's eldest son, Liu Chongli, deputy director of the General Staff Headquarters of Phoenix City.

Liu Chong glanced at Li Yeling, who had already stood up and pretended to admire the ink paintings hanging on the wall. With a smile in his eyes, he gently patted the woman in his arms on the back and whispered: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back. Get up first, don't let others laugh."

Xia Ruolan stood up reluctantly, gently touched Liu Chong's face, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were filled with joy.

Liu Chong gently put her waist on her face and kissed her, walked to Li Yeling, and smiled and said, "This is a big name with Gao?"

Seeing that he took the initiative to reach out and his favor towards this person increased a lot, Li Yeling reached out and shook with him, and smiled and said, "Li Yeling, I have seen the eldest son!"

His hands were very powerful, giving people a sense of calmness and heaviness. He was just at the extreme of his younger brother Liu Yang's frivolity, and the two brothers did not look like each other at all. Li Yeling couldn't help but maliciously speculate whether someone had worn a big green hat on Commander Liu Yimin.

"Brother Chong, this is the great help I invited to you during the messaging. Haha, he is a person with great power in Ningbei Province." Xia Ruolan walked up, took Liu Chong's arm, and said with a giggle.

Li Yeling thought to himself that you don’t have to show your love in front of me!

"Oh? It turns out that Mr. Li is the person mentioned in Ruolan's message. So how did Mr. Li and Ruolan recognize him this time?" Liu Chong sat next to Li Yeling and asked with a smile.

Li Yeling looked at the smile on his face and thought to himself. This is an absolute test. It seems that no matter what kind of man you know that his woman is with another man for a few days, he is suspicious. However, Liu Chong was extremely honest and asked straightforwardly.

Li Yeling had already thought of the answer and smiled and said, "Director Xia was not clear in his message before. I guess the eldest young master is still in doubt. I will tell you the whole story. I guess the eldest young master already knows that the second young master returned in Wuyun City, right?"

Liu nodded: "The second brother didn't do this very well. Now everyone in the city knows about this. I heard that he met several masters outside Wuyun City. Not only were the people killed, but Jianwan was also stolen. Could it be?..."

Looking at Liu Chong with a suspicious look on his face, Li Yeling smiled and pointed at himself: "I didn't do this."

When he said this, Li Yeling had already made plans to turn against the young master. No matter what he was thinking, after all, Liu Yang was his nominal younger brother. He had already said so bluntly that he had to make a little reaction.

However, when Liu Chong heard this, he was stunned at first, then laughed loudly. With a smile on his face, he patted Li Yeling on the shoulder and said loudly: "Okay, Brother Li, you are doing this beautifully!"

Li Yeling was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself whether Liu Chong was really a heroic and scheming person? Or was the relationship between the two brothers deteriorated to the point where there was no need to cover up?

"I am a straight-hearted person and will not beat around the bush. My second brother doesn't like me, and I don't like him very much. I always want to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson. Haha, Brother Li, I have to thank you very much!" Liu Chong's straightforward and unconcealed feelings of hatred have greatly increased everyone's favorability towards him.

Li Yeling touched his nose. If this boss really has this kind of temperament, can he reach this point? But if he is disguised, it would be too terrible!

"That time Liu Yang fled in the desert, and Director Xia became my prisoner. Haha, to be honest, I originally wanted to kill Director Xia at that time, but later I learned about Director Xia and you, and I will not hide it. This time I came to Phoenix City to have something important to do. After learning about the relationship between you two, I did not kill him. Instead, I wanted to ask Director Xia to be a middle-aged person and cooperate with you, the eldest son."

"Oh? That's that simple?" Liu Chong had an unconcealed suspicion on his face.

"Director Xia wants to survive. I need your help to come to Phoenix City to do business. Director Xia has mentioned your plan to me, and I believe I can help you. The interests are so simple!" Li Yeling sipped the tea and said lightly.

Liu Chong stared at Li Yeling for a while, then suddenly slapped his thigh and smiled, "Okay, well said, what a stakeholder! Brother Li, you can say these words, it is enough to show that you are a cheerful person! I like to deal with people like you."

He pondered for a moment, tapped the table with his right hand and said, "Have Ruolan told you about my plan?"

"Counterattack on Wuyun City, the army is approaching, brothers compete, right?"

"Yes, what do you think?"

"Then I have to ask first, how strong is the eldest son at hand?"
To be continued...
