Yue Zhong looked at Bei Mingyang and said coldly: "I'm Yue Zhong! If you have something to say, say it! Don't try to drag it out, otherwise I'll execute you! "
Bei Mingyang stared at Yue Zhong and said solemnly: "Then I'll be direct! Yue Zhong, the armory behind me is filled with explosives! As long as I don't return within 20 minutes, they will be detonated. The ammunition, weapons and equipment in the armory will all be blasted to smithereens. Other than the armory, I've also made arrangements for the granary. As long as I don't leave here alive, 20 minutes later, the place will be turned into a sea of fire! "
When Yue Zhong heard this, he frowned. There were 50,000 survivors in Tianxin District. If the food in the granary was destroyed, then the 50,000 survivors would be a huge burden. Even if Yue Zhong transported the food from Jingxi District to Tianxin District, with the amount they had, it would not last for more than 3 months.
Wu Yin's eyes narrowed, as he threatened furiously: "Bastard! If you dare to do that, I'll cut you in half! "
"If you do that!! I, your father, will give you a slow death!! "
"… …"
Yue Zhong's subordinates began to shout out in anger.
Facing those threats, Bei Mingyang ignored them all, and just looked at Yue Zhong quietly.
Yue Zhong waved his hands, and Wu Yin and the rest of the subordinates finally stopped shouting.
Yue Zhong stared coldly at Bei Mingyang and said: "State your conditions! As long as it's not too ridiculous, I can agree to it! "
Bei Mingyang had come here alone, and did not burn the armory or granary. It was obvious that he did not want to push things too far. He also wanted to live.
Bei Mingyang looked at Yue Zhong and said solemnly: "I'm willing to surrender to Leader Yue Zhong! However, I hope that Leader can guarantee the safety of our families and personal belongings will not be harmed. Furthermore, after we surrender, we will have the same rights as your subordinates. "
In this apocalyptic world, human lives were as cheap as ants. Bei Mingyang was afraid that if he surrendered to Yue Zhong, he would be treated like a pig and slaughtered. He had not been in this world for long, and had seen the darkness of the apocalypse. He was afraid that Yue Zhong would be a tyrannical terrorist.
Yue Zhong replied: "Fine! I promise you! "
Yue Zhong had already intended to fulfill the conditions that Bei Mingyang had mentioned. He had never shown mercy to his enemies, but that was all. He never had the habit of massacring a city.
Hearing Yue Zhong's promise, Bei Mingyang heaved a sigh of relief, as he pulled out a walkie-talkie and spoke bitterly: "Everyone, surrender immediately!"
After receiving Bei Mingyang's orders, the resistance in the other areas of Tianxin District was greatly weakened. The doors to the armory were also opened, allowing Yue Zhong's soldiers to charge in and occupy it.
In the armory, there were also IFVs, Red Arrows missile launchers, anti-aircraft machine gun vehicles and many other advanced weapons.
Under Bei Mingyang's command, only a dozen or so veterans from Zhao Zhigang's Elite Company knew how to use such advanced equipment. However, before they could reach the armory, they were intercepted by Yue Zhong, unable to unleash the might of the weapons.
Otherwise, Yue Zhong's casualties would be even greater.
With Bei Mingyang's surrender, Tianxin District's resistance weakened by 80%. However, there were still some who tried to stop Yue Zhong's army from entering the town. However, under the relentless assault of Yue Zhong's troops, they were all crushed to smithereens.
Not long after, the resistance in Tianxin District was completely crushed, and the rioting within the district was also quelled. All the rioters were executed on the spot. Under that iron blooded suppression, the entire Tianxin District slowly regained its peace.
After the entire Tianxin District fell into Yue Zhong's hands, the expert battalion under Bei Mingyang also fell into Yue Zhong's hands.
That day, the commander of the expert battalion, Bai Xiaosheng, had engaged in a game of '1 dragon and 4 phoenixes' with a few beauties. In the end, he was exhausted, and slept for an entire day and night. By the time he woke up, the entire Tianxin District was already in Yue Zhong's hands.
Seeing that Bei Mingyang had surrendered to Yue Zhong, Bai Xiaosheng also tactfully submitted to Yue Zhong.
After conquering Tianxin District, Yue Zhong swiftly reorganized his troops, and in a short span of time, there were 4 infantry battalions and 1 expert battalion. On top of that, there were 6 additional infantry battalions, and Yue Zhong's army had grown to a total of 4,000 people.
However, within this 4,000 strong army, the truly strong ones were the 3 infantry battalions and the expert battalion. The rest of the troops were still undergoing training, and would not be able to form a strong combat force in a short period of time.
When the 4 infantry battalions and the expert battalion were formed, Yue Zhong began to deploy them in various directions, clearing out the zombies in the surrounding villages. On one hand, he would reap the spoils of war, while on the other, he would constantly increase their combat strength, increasing the number of Enhancers and their levels.
As for the rest of the reserve troops, Yue Zhong would send people to educate them and train them strictly. Although these reserve troops could not fight yet, after a few months of training, they would be able to become qualified recruits.
As for the government, with the experience of setting up the Long Hai City government, Yue Zhong had also selected a group of people who were familiar with the administrative processes, and with the help of Bei Mingyang, they set up a government.
Bei Mingyang was a very talented person. Before the apocalypse, he was an industrialist with a net worth of over a hundred million, and he was an ambitious person who had started from scratch. He was knowledgeable, talented, and had the charisma of a leader, as well as a resolute will. This was how he was able to lead a small team to become a huge faction with over 50,000 people. If Bei Mingyang had a weakness, it would be that his combat strength was not strong, and was only at the level of a Level 11 Enhancer.
Although Bei Mingyang was outstanding, Yue Zhong did not choose him to be the head of the government, instead, he chose Wei Ningguo to be the head of the government. Although Wei Ningguo's abilities were mediocre, he did not have much ambition.
If Bei Mingyang were to become the head of the government, the moment Yue Zhong was not around, he would immediately think of ways to rebel against Yue Zhong. He would snatch away all of Yue Zhong's assets! Although Wei Ningguo was mediocre, even if Yue Zhong was not around, he would not have any thoughts of rebelling. In this world, the most complicated thing was the human heart. It was hard to find someone who was loyal and capable.
For a person like Bei Mingyang who had the ability and ambition, Yue Zhong could only trust him after he had established the order of the Empire. In such an unstable situation, Yue Zhong could only rely on someone like Wei Ningguo to ensure stability.
Yue Zhong's troops headed southwest towards Long Yun County to clear out the zombies in the surrounding villages. After a week, they had no choice but to retreat back to Tianxin District.
"It's snowing!!" In front of a villa in Tianxin District, Yue Zhong looked at the sky, as snowflakes continued to fall. He stretched out his hand, and a snowflake landed in his hand, turning into a puddle of ice water.
Yue Zhong looked at the puddle of water in his hand, and sighed deeply.
"Master! Why are you sighing? Isn't the snow beautiful? This is the first time I've seen snow! "Beside Yue Zhong, there was a melodious voice of a loli.
Yue Zhong looked to the side, and saw Ming Jiajia, who was dressed in a thick coat and gloves. Her face was red from the cold, and she looked like a doll.
Currently, Ming Jiajia was looking at the pure white snow, and her face was filled with joy. She had grown up in the south, and it was the first time she had seen snow in the real world.
Yue Zhong looked at the beautiful snow and spoke solemnly: "Our Guang Xi has always had a moderate temperature. There are very few places where it snows. Tianxin District has not seen snow in the past 10 years. Even if it did, it wouldn't be this heavy. It's obvious that the climate of this world has become abnormal. Such a change, to us humans, I'm not sure if it's good or bad! However, this winter, I'm afraid many will freeze to death! "
Right now, the temperature outside had dropped to -4 degrees, and it had persisted for a week. Everywhere was covered in snow, and the roads were closed.
After Yue Zhong had conquered Tianxin District and Jingxi District, he had obtained a large number of winter blankets and other supplies. Even so, in this week, there had been over 20 survivors who froze to death. Almost all the survivors had holed up in their homes, shivering under their blankets.
If Yue Zhong had brought his men out into the wilderness, this sudden cold could have claimed the lives of many of his men.
Under such conditions, the majority of the troops under Yue Zhong had already returned to Jingxi District and Tianxin District, and were undergoing training indoors. The search for resources and hunting of zombies had to stop as well.
"Achoo!!" Ming Jiajia suddenly let out a cute sneeze.
"Let's go back!" Yue Zhong ruffled Ming Jiajia's head and said.
The problem with the weather, Yue Zhong could not change it. Although he wanted to bring his troops to deal with Wuyan Hong, he could only wait for the snow to stop. Otherwise, his troops would have been defeated by the cold before they could even fight with Wuyan Hong.
Yue Zhong brought Ming Jiajia towards the most luxurious villa in Tianxin District.
"Welcome home, Master!" The moment Yue Zhong brought Ming Jiajia into the villa, he saw 2 rows of 12 beautiful maids bowing towards them, as they greeted in unison.
Yue Zhong looked at the beautiful maids with curiosity, and his lips curled slightly: "Not bad!"
Ever since Yue Zhong had conquered Tianxin District, he had been busy training his troops, setting up a new government, as well as training his own combat skills. He had been so busy that he did not have the time to go home. Basically, he would just sleep in his office. This was the first time he had gone home. (To be continued.
