When Wang Ke repeated Gao Qi's words loudly, the originally silent slaves finally reacted.
The crowd finally began to stir, and then Kenny's long-awaited cry of joy finally appeared. Although it was sparse, it was no longer deathly silent.
Kenny, who was holding the gun in front of his chest, turned his head to look at Gao Qi. His bearded face was full of puzzlement as he said, "It wasn't like this before. In the past, when we rescued the slaves from the farms, they were very happy. But the people here, they are like … like … like dead people. Yes, they are like dead people."
Gao Qi exhaled. He pointed at the chains on Mark's body and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Help me remove the chains on his body."
The chains weren't easy to remove, but Wang Ke took out two thin steel wires. Like magic, he fiddled with the iron hoop on Mark's waist. After that, a lock was unlocked and Mark was released from the chains.
At this moment, Niu Lidong's voice sounded from the gate. He excitedly shouted, "Brother Qi! Brother Qi, where are you? We're rich! "
Gao Qi patted the scarred Mark and whispered, "Let's go, you're free."
Mark fiercely raised his fist at the slaves beside him. The slaves beside him had faces full of panic, but they didn't even dare to resist. They realized that they were going to be beaten, and their reaction was to stand up straight and prepare to be beaten.
"You trash, cowards, cowards, bah!"
Mark only cursed a few times, but he didn't hit them. He only said to Gao Qi, "Let's go quickly. I don't want to stay in this damned place for a moment longer."
Gao Qi said to Kenny who was beside him, "I'll leave this place to you. Do a headcount. Untie the chains on the slaves who are willing to leave. As for the slaves who aren't willing to leave, let them go. I'll be back in a while and give them weapons and food."
Kenny still didn't understand and said, "Leave it to me? But what can I do? These people, they, why are they like this? "
Gao Qi didn't want to stay in this stinking garage for another second. If he hadn't heard Mark's voice, he wouldn't have come in at all.
Gao Qi supported Mark, who was staggering as he walked out of the garage. He took a few deep breaths, while Niu Lidong was extremely surprised. "Mark? Damn, it's really Mark! Why is Mark here?! "
Gao Qi exhaled and said, "It's a long story. Let's not talk about him for now. What did you guys discover?"
"Oh, oh, there's everything. There aren't many guns, they're all junk that we snatched from the Desolate Dwellers, but there's a lot of bullets. There's also a lot of heavy machine gun bullets, boxes after boxes of them, and even artillery shells! Brother Qi, here are some artillery shells, grenades, and rifle grenades. They're all packed in boxes, hehe! "
"Oh, there are artillery shells? Where are the cannons? "
"Yes! There are two mortars! "
Gao Qi said helplessly, "They're not mortars, they're those … cannons! I'm talking about cannons! "
"Cannons … aren't mortars considered cannons? The barrels are very thick, they're not those small cannons. "
"Have you counted the number? And food, is there a lot of food? "
Niu Lidong shook his head and said, "There's not much food, but there's a lot of fast food. That's what Old Wang called it. Fast food, canned food, it's good!"
Gao Qi nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Niu Lidong looked into the garage and said, "Are we going to leave this place alone?"
"I don't care, it's making me angry."
Gao Qi followed Niu Lidong to the ammunition depot. The commandos were moving the ammunition out, and dozens of them were very busy. When they saw Gao Qi, Wang Ming Yuan, who was in charge of counting, immediately said, "You're here. Today's harvest is not small. There are two M252 81mm mortars, 22 boxes of artillery shells, four rounds in each box, four M2HB heavy machine guns, four spare barrels, and nearly 200 boxes of 100 rounds in total."
"Wait a minute, there are nearly 20,000 rounds of heavy machine gun ammunition?"
"Yes, is there a problem?"
"No problem, continue."
Wang Ming Yuan shrugged and said, "There are 12 boxes of 7.62 caliber ammunition, 1,000 rounds in each box. There are 40 boxes of 5.56 caliber ammunition, 1,000 rounds in each box. Since this is the forward base of the City of Sin, and also an important supply station, I don't think this amount of ammunition is a lot. According to the expansion speed, strategic goals, and tactics of the City of Sin, the expansion of the City of Sin has reached its limit."
Gao Qi frowned and said, "Wait, you're analyzing the battle strength of the City of Sin for me?"
"Yes, is there a problem?"
A common problem for smart people was that they were easily overconfident and arrogant, thinking that they could easily handle any field.
Gao Qi was silent for a moment and said, "No problem, what else is there?"
"There are 26 boxes of hand grenades, 30 in each box, which means there are 780 hand grenades. Among them, there are 16 boxes of stun grenades. It can be seen that the enemy here doesn't use hand grenades as their main weapon. When the battle reaches close range, it is time for them to capture the slaves."
The main purpose of a slave raiding team was to capture slaves. Gao Qi sighed and said, "Replenish ammunition for our commandos and replace the guns that can be replaced. As for the remaining weapons and food, half of it will be transported away, and the other half will be distributed to the slaves who are unwilling to leave."
Wang Ming Yuan was stunned and said, "Distributed to the slaves who are unwilling to leave?"
"Yes, half of it will be distributed to them."
Wang Ming Yuan shook his head and said, "No, no, the point is that the slaves are unwilling to leave? Are you kidding? "
Wang Ke said in a low voice, "Boss isn't kidding. Dad, I think there are many slaves who won't leave. If they aren't forced, some of them won't even open their chains."
Wang Ming Yuan thought for a moment and then said with a serious face, "That's too powerful!"
Gao Qi was stunned and said, "What's too powerful?"
"The brainwashing methods of the City of Sin are too powerful. Otherwise, why would the slaves not be willing to regain their freedom? Regardless of the reason or the method, the City of Sin's methods must be very powerful. Oh, do you want to take a look? "
Looking at Wang Ming Yuan's expectant face, Gao Qi shook his head and said, "No!"
"No? These are slaves who have been brainwashed, the type that is absolutely loyal. Although they are a little less subjective, as long as they are modified, they will become the most reliable soldiers. They are slave soldiers, don't you want them? "
Gao Qi thought for a long time and then shook his head and said, "No, I don't want them."
Wang Ming Yuan sighed and said, "It's a pity. These slaves are very obedient. If you don't need them in a war, you can let them work. If they are willing to regain their freedom, you can give them freedom. As for those who are addicted to being slaves, you can satisfy their wishes. You can say it in another way. For example … lifelong employment. You can even provide food and shelter. Isn't that good?"
Gao Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Old Wang, your idea is very dangerous. I want to be a liberator, not a new slave owner."
