Startled slightly.
After a brief moment of shock, Hu Kui had to accept the reality in front of him.
Twelve fortress cities were destroyed at the same time. A large number of civilians suffered heavy casualties, and the infrastructure in the cities was completely destroyed.
The dilemma everyone will face next seems to be surprisingly consistent.
That is - a serious shortage of various living supplies!
Food, drinking water, energy, medicine and even shelter from the elements.
It is conceivable that these things that are not valuable in ordinary times, or even easily available, will become extremely precious in the days to come.
Narrow your eyes.
Hu Kui also realized the seriousness of the situation and couldn't help but said: "What do you mean, do you mean..."
"That's right."
A sad look flashed in his eyes.
Xue Yun said in a deep voice: "Next, the twelve fortress cities of the Great Xia Empire will most likely turn against each other due to the shortage of supplies."
His shoulders slumped down, and he reached out to cover his bandaged chest.
Hu Kui lowered his head and gritted his teeth secretly. Even if he was so unwilling to face it, he knew in his heart that Xue Yun's views were definitely not just alarmist.
"Will it really turn into a civil war?"
Clench your fists.
Hu Kui gritted his teeth and shouted: "In the past twenty years, everyone has been getting along very harmoniously. If necessary, I really don't want to go to war with other princes."
"no way."
Sighed softly.
Xue Yun's tone was full of helplessness: "We humans always think that we are the spirits of all things, but in the face of life and death, most people are not much different from beasts and monsters."
Survival is never easy.
Faced with limited resources, people have to fight and compete if they want to survive.
Just as Xue Yun said.
Once forced to a dead end, human beings are actually a group of wild beasts out of control.
At this point, in order to gain a chance of survival, internal fighting has almost become a certainty.
Unless someone is so stupid that they would rather starve to death than unite everyone with dignity.
Ask yourself——
Although Xue Yun and Hu Kui also have the world in mind, they are not such extremely bad people.
"In short, be sure to send people to collect as many materials as possible first."
He staggered towards the outside of the camp.
Xue Yun's physical condition has reached its limit after not having a good rest for seven consecutive days.
Despite this, he still had no intention of stopping, and said as he walked: "Let everyone hurry up and restore order in Longdu City as soon as possible."
"In the short term, maybe everyone can coexist peacefully..."
Finally, he glanced at the lord of the city who was in a daze in front of the desk.
Xue Yun's eyes were blazing and he smiled bitterly: "However, human nature cannot stand the test. For the overall benefit of Longdu, it is best to prepare early."
Boom~~~
Xue Yun, who had just walked out of the camp, forcibly activated the "absolute armed" state again. As soon as he soared into the sky, he rushed towards the most chaotic city center area.
There are still many thorny problems out there that require a lot of manpower to solve.
Anyway.
If Xue Yun takes action, whether it is rescue operations or maintaining public security and stability, it will usually get twice the result with half the effort.
This was one of the reasons why he didn't want to rest.
Under the current situation, Xue Yun knew very well that he was racing against time with the devastated Longdu.
...
the other side.
Located on the outskirts to the east of Longdu City, a large open plain has long been cleared.
Look around.
The densely packed temporary tents were crowded together in a chaotic manner. Apart from the crowds of people, all kinds of noisy shouts and curses could be heard almost constantly.
This is a temporary shelter established by Longdu to accommodate citizens who survived the disaster but lost their homes.
Almost hundreds of thousands of people are concentrated in this area, and the number is increasing every day.
One can imagine.
With so many people gathering together to eat, drink, and defecate, with no infrastructure at all, the level of chaos is beyond words.
"I go!"
There were tampons stuffed in the nostrils.
Zhuge Gang walked into the temporary tent with a strange expression, shook his head and complained: "I want to tell you some very unfortunate news. The men's cesspit outside the tent is blocked, and a lot of vicious bastards are simply hiding in the ruins not far away. It’s so convenient, but the smell is simply horrible..."
He looked tired and listless.
Everyone in the tent, which was not too big, looked listless.
Xiaogu and Lengxintong were nestling in the corner. The latter's eyes were slightly red, and it was obvious that he had just cried.
Beside him, Shi Kelang and his two sisters were sitting by a simple stove, skillfully cooking the relief food uniformly distributed by the War Readiness Department.
As for Xue Ningwei, she was curled up on the bed at the moment, with her back to everyone, and she didn't know whether she was asleep or not...
"Well......"
Seeing that everyone was ignoring him, the atmosphere became even more depressing.
Zhuge Gangtang twitched the corner of his mouth, quickly took out the tampon from his nostril, and waved his hand: "Actually, there is no need to worry. I believe that within a few days, the War Readiness Department will clean up those things. It is not a problem, hahaha Ha ha!"
Having said that.
But it is impossible for everyone to be as optimistic as Zhuge Gang.
Today's Longdu City, it may not be appropriate to say that everything is in ruins and waiting for development. The living conditions are difficult and have reached a terrible critical point.
They are a pretty good bunch, at least they have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
As everyone knows, there are still many people in the slums who simply live in the open and live in ruins, eating all kinds of messy things.
Morality, integrity, and social order have collapsed at the same time, and it is already rare to be able to survive by hand.
As for the Longdu War Readiness Department led by Hu Kui and Xue Yun, they were still busy cleaning up the ruins and rescuing the wounded, and had no time to take care of other things.
"Xiao Gu, I can't wait to pull..."
suddenly--
Leng Xintong, who had been silent all this time, stood up suddenly, gritted his teeth and cried: "I'm going to the training camp now. No matter what, I have to find the kid Xiao Yi. Even if he is really dead, I have to see the body. That’s it!”
As soon as these words came out.
Xiaogu, who had always been dull, quickly frowned, while Shi Kelang on the side lowered his head and said nothing.
Only Xue Ningwei, who was curled up on the bed with her back to everyone, couldn't help but tremble.
"Xintong, calm down."
He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Zhuge Gang stepped forward quickly and admonished: "Didn't Lao Hu and Lao Xue say that the cleanup work at the training camp is still going on, and the bodies of the children have not been found yet."
There was a pause.
Zhuge Gang continued: "I believe that Xiao Yi will be fine. The dragons are in chaos at this time. It is definitely not a wise choice to leave the shelter rashly."
