Not only herself, but she also used the rules to ruin many people who had ideals, ambitions, and hoped to be shown and recognized.But things are so strange, they should be hated but become partners in the end, and they should be grateful but become mortal enemies.This is politics, which is irrational and inhumane.

Chapter 919 Timely Assist

The display of humanity not only appeared in the council, but also in the south of the city safety zone.At this time, the yard in front of the small building has become a sea of ​​joy, and dozens of unshaven, bare-chested refugees are singing and dancing around the campfire.No one cares about the specific dance, anyway, just shout and jump, happy.

What is there to be so happy about? Just the return of the legendary former boss of the alliance really doesn't have such a strong allure.

Not long after Zhang Weiping and Shabalin entered the small building and were warmly received by Hong Tao, and they strongly invited them to the barbecue banquet that started in the evening, several carriages from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came galloping and stopped outside the small building.

Many men and women wearing the uniforms of the Ministry of Internal Affairs got out of the carriage. They took over the field personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who were originally guarding nearby, and surrounded the small building tightly.All the people in the yard turned a blind eye to this change, even if they saw it, so what, who can interfere with the change of shifts in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

As for the obvious increase in posts, it's easy to explain, isn't it because two distinguished guests have come.Although the directors of the council say they have little real power, they are famous. In theory, they are the highest authority in the alliance. It is normal for more people to protect them.

But this normality lasted less than half an hour before it was broken by a group of uninvited guests.The new field staff from the Ministry of Internal Affairs actually wanted to enter the hospital for inspection. Hurling a large group of people, after turning around for half a circle, they left without saying anything, causing a burst of curses from the coachmen.

If a careful person carefully counts the number of field workers from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who came in and the number of field workers who went out, they will find that there are three fewer people who went out than those who came in. Inside, they were dressed similarly to those of refugees, mixed in with the singing and dancing crowd.

Coincidentally, there was such a person in the courtyard. As soon as the courtyard door was closed, Buyakov approached Hong Tao and whispered something in a low voice. After a while, he saw Hong Tao in the temporary warehouse at the end of the first floor. these three people.

"They are all friends I met in the Redeemer. Don't mention them to anyone except Minister Zhou." Hong Tao recognized them with just one glance, and turned to send Buyakov out first.

Zhuma, Camilla and Yu Jia, it was because of them that I ran all the way to the capital. As a result, I lost contact with Zhou Yuan by accident. I didn't expect that I would deliver it to the door today.

"Bijs, it's me, Zhuma!" Seeing that there were no outsiders in the room, Zhuma immediately turned into a bird and rushed over.

"And me, Kamili... and me, Yu Jia!" The two children also ran over, not tall enough to compete with Zhuma's body, so they simply hugged each other's legs.

"It was Zhou Yuan who sent you back?" Of course, Hong Tao was also very pleasantly surprised. If the three of them could have appeared a month earlier, the series of events that happened later might not have happened, and he would not have to face the current danger.

But apart from surprises, you have to be a little vigilant. First, you need to find out where the three of them have been and how they suddenly appeared here. Thinking about it.

"Well, all the students in the school are temporarily seconded to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to perform tasks. It is an internship before graduation. We got into the carriage of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and were led into the yard by a little girl named Lan.

It's like a dream!When we left Xinjiang, we were still worried about you. Only Sister Zhou firmly said that you must still be alive. While waiting for you to come back, I will go to the school run by her to learn some skills, and I will become a Your good helper! "

I haven't seen her for two years. Zhuma's appearance hasn't changed much, but her figure is obviously more vigorous, and her personality is more lively. She speaks Chinese fluently, and basically loses the smell of mutton skewers.

"I know how to use a telegraph machine, and I can send telegrams across long distances! And me, and me, I can shoot a gun, and my grades are better than Camilla's!" Not only Juma said, but also Camilla and Camilla. Not to be outdone, Yu Jia tried her best to show off her newly learned skills.

"Then you don't need to go back?"

Hong Tao probably understood that Zhou Yuan didn't give the three of Zhuma the official household registration of the alliance at all, but arranged them in the school jointly established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the name of training agents.

In that school, some students only had code names but no real names, their identities were kept secret, and the elimination rate was very high. They would disappear soon after graduation, leaving only a piece of personal information in the top-secret file of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The cadets, like Juma's sister, were chosen to train as secret intelligence officers.There is a high probability that future jobs will be sent to other survivor groups, or simply infiltrate incognito to perform long-term latent missions.

"We're on the knockout list at school too, no one's going to notice! Oh my god, these bastards, what did they do to your face!"

Talking about the two years of life, Zhuma was very happy, but through the firelight outside the window, she saw the dense scars on half of Hong Tao's face, and remembered the desperate struggle by the Sailimu Lake.Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I can imagine how dangerous it was from these scars.

"You shouldn't call her elder sister, you should call her auntie!" Hong Tao began to swear again without worrying about the future.

"I'm used to it. All the students in the academy, including the students who are trained by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, must call me sister in person, otherwise they will be punished. I have good grades in school, Camilla is better, and Yu Jia is a little worse. I don't care about you." Seeing him is too playful!

"... When did you know I was here?" Through simple chatting, Hong Tao heard something. Zhuma didn't seem to know what happened before, otherwise he wouldn't just talk about it after meeting. Not to mention the current situation.

"On the car coming here, I heard what Miss Lan from the Ministry of Internal Affairs said. At first, I wondered why Camilla and Yu Jia were brought along during the mission...Bigesi, I saw my sister, she is still alive! But Sister Zhou said that we can't recognize each other for the time being, she is an intelligence agent of the Redeemer, if her identity is exposed, she will be sentenced, so I have to find a way slowly."

Sure enough, Juma spent the past two years living an almost isolated life in the secret service training academy jointly established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, knowing nothing about the outside world.

And that blue girl should be Lan Ling'er.It seems that Lin Na also participated in this matter, at least to provide convenience for Zhou Yuan.Otherwise, it would be difficult for Wang Jian alone, but for Zhuma, there is no way for the two children to sneak in secretly.

"Well, let's talk about other things slowly tonight. I'm going to talk to Sabalin first. You guys wait here for a while." Regarding the whereabouts of sister Zhuma, Hong Tao is really powerless. He heard Gao Qiao talk about it on the destroyer , Zhou Yuan arrested Niu Dafu on the grounds that he violated the alliance secrecy law.

According to Takahashi's speculation, it is likely to be related to the beautiful foreign daughter-in-law married by Niu Dafu.This incident was considered big news back then. Not only the military knew about it, but many alliance officials also heard about it.

Takahashi was also fortunate to attend the wedding and met the bride.She is indeed beautiful, not ordinary beautiful, and she is indeed a girl of a different race, very similar to the white-Russian descendants who settled in Japan.

Through the limited information, Hong Tao can probably guess that Zhuma's sister must have found a chance to marry Niu Dafu, so that he can continuously provide important information about the East Asian Alliance to the Redeemer executives.

But at this moment, not only was he incapable of thinking of a way to rescue him, but he seemed to be implicating him as well.If it weren't for Niu Dafu bombarding her, Zhou Yuan would definitely not tear her face apart.As long as it is not made public, there is a way to get people away through private means, and Niu Dafu will not say anything.

But now it's troublesome, Zhou Yuan became a lover in anger, and the identity of Zhuma's sister became public information.Even if the redeemer no longer exists, the crime of espionage is still a felony, and as long as it is found guilty, it will basically end in secret shooting.

Even if Zhou Yuan wanted to save her, it would not be so easy. This is a side effect of the rules.Whatever it is, once it's brought to the table, there's not much wiggle room.

But then again, any rules are made by people, as long as the thinking is not slippery, there are more solutions than difficulties.As the creator of the rules, Hong Tao can still come up with a solution, but he needs to pay a relatively high price, and he can't guarantee 100% success.

Chapter 920 The Foundation of Trust

In less than 5 minutes, the door was pushed open again, and the oil lamp was lit.Behind Hong Tao was a burly man with a big beard and big round eyes, a bit calm and pretentious.

"Camilla! Is it you, Camille, my Camilla, is this true!" But when he saw Camilla's small face, he immediately bent down and smiled all over his face They are all ravines, in which there are two springs flowing.

"Uncle... Uncle Sabalin... woo woo woo..." Camila didn't know the slightest bit before, and stared at the big man for more than ten seconds before confirming that it was true. Before it arrived, the cry had already sounded.

The moon is cloudy and sunny, and people have joys and sorrows.What is most precious in the last days is blood relatives.After the outbreak of the zombie virus, most of the families were destroyed. It is common for those who are completely wiped out, and the only ones that are left are considered normal, and those who still have relatives have to smoke from the ancestral graves.

But Sabalin and his niece Camila are obviously in the same area, but they haven't seen each other for several years because of the struggle among the survivors, and they don't even know whether the other party is still alive.

Today's sudden reunion, how can it be summed up in a few words of joy and surprise.According to their customs, when there is a big happy event in the family, the neighbors and even the whole village must be invited, and the best food and wine will be served, singing and dancing, and eating and drinking.

Although the current conditions are limited, mutton and wine can still be obtained. For singing and dancing, those who can dance can dance, and those who can’t dance can dance blindly.

As a third-hand bulk herdsman, Hong Tao would still be able to jump around a few times.As the double benefactor of Camilla's family, he naturally couldn't be idle.You have to drink a big bowl of wine, you have to eat a big piece of meat, and you have to dance a lot.

But the person who drank the most, ate the most, and danced the most today was Sabalin.At this time, he had already taken off his jacket, only wearing a small embroidered waistcoat, crossed his feet, bent his upper body and spread his arms outstretched.

For a while, it was like a hen protecting its chicks, stretching out its hands and swaying from side to side, and then turning over again, changing to galloping vertically and horizontally on a horse, dancing very professionally.Nothing can disturb his interest tonight, this is a gift from the true God, and whoever stops him will be in a hurry!

"Come on, Uncle Bizes, please accept Sabalin's faithful blessing!" But there was one exception. Seeing Hong Tao approaching, Sabalin immediately stopped dancing and held up a big bowl to do it first.This guy is a bit of a Crimean style, with a stupid mouth, whether it is gratitude or hatred, everything is in the wine!

"Sabalin, I want to ask you one thing." The wine must be undrinkable, although Sabalin and Zhang Weiping are the guests, but today he was toasted the most to himself.

Hong Tao dragged the big man, who was two times stronger than Kerim, to the underside of the arbor, avoiding the crowd, and at the same time covering up the eyeliner who might be watching from a high place, before opening his mouth to speak.

"Uncle Bires, you are the elder of my family, you can ask for anything, I can't do it, I will find a way!" Sabalin is about forty or so, Hong Tao wanted to call him brother, but he But he insisted on calling himself a junior, and he couldn't stop him.

"Speaking of Kamili's benefactor, I deserve it. She and that little guy were adopted by a Han man named Fang Wenlin. This man was an intelligence officer of the rebel army, and unfortunately died on the way to escort the child.

At that time, the conditions were limited, so I could only bury him in the mountains of the ancient road.Now that Camilla has found her relatives, Yu Jia is even more lonely.The two children grew up together. If you don't dislike him as a Han Chinese, can you consider adopting him together? "

What does Hong Tao want to discuss with Sabalin? It's a big deal, a big deal.But before we talk about serious things, we have to throw a relatively small matter as a foreshadowing, to see if this leader is as bold as he seems on the surface.

"I know Mr. Fang. My brother mentioned him when he led the tribe to Yining. Many friends have disappeared over the years. They are all good people, and there are many Han people. This child will be my son from today. If he wants to There will also be a Kazakh name!"

Hearing this past story, Shabalin picked up the big bowl and raised his neck to dry again. The flesh on his cheeks trembled, and he readily agreed to the request, and planned to officially recognize Yu Jia's identity according to their customs.Having the name of the ethnic group is equivalent to being a member of the clan, regardless of blood relationship.

However, there is no trace of sadness in his eyes. The rebel army has been fighting for six or seven years from more than 2 people at the beginning, and now there are only more than 8000 left. They are young and strong, and sadness has long become a daily routine.If it wasn't for the hard heart, I'm afraid I couldn't bear it long ago.

"How are you? Are you still getting used to life here?" Having solved Yu Jia's question, Hong Tao still didn't get into the subject right away.Whether benefactors are benefactors or not, ordinary people's moral emotions are farts in his eyes, without any credibility.The only thing he can believe is his own eyes and brain, the rest are illusions.

"...Not good! Food and drink are good and safer. But there are no mountains, no grasslands, no cattle, sheep, and horses here. Uncle Bizes, I also want to ask you to do something, please help us again, and point out a job The way down. If this goes on, my people and warriors will soon become drunkards and gamblers."

It was originally a polite remark, but Sabalin became serious, and the more he said it, the more excited he became, and the more he said it, the more helpless he became.Suddenly he grabbed Hong Tao's wrist. Under the light of the campfire, his two big bloodshot eyes flickered like wild dogs on the side of the road.

Hong Tao was not polite either, he turned his palms and grabbed the opponent's wrists, pressing one down and lifting the other up, secretly competing with each other.Having spent several years as neighbors with Crimea, Hong Tao has already become familiar with the shepherd's character.

When interacting with these people, you must not be too shy, let alone too humble.They advocate ability from the bottom of their hearts, and whoever is strong has weight in his words, and the weak have no right to speak.Of course, high intelligence is also considered strong, but it is too unintuitive. The fastest and most effective is the force value.

"Hahaha... Zhang Weiping said that you must have a solution. I still don't quite believe it. Now it seems that he is right. Please forgive my recklessness. No matter what others say about some things, you have to try it yourself before you believe it!"

Ordinarily, whether Sabalin presses from top to bottom, or uses his right hand to his left hand, should take a lot of advantage.But Hong Tao's raised forearm couldn't be pushed down after two attempts, so he let go, admitting his rudeness and sinister intentions.

"It's a good habit, and I'm almost the same, so even if I have the answer to the question just now, I can't tell you easily."

In fact, as long as Shabalin worked hard two more times, Hong Tao would not be able to bear it anymore. It was not that he was old and weak, but that he was not good at strength at all.The force value is useful against a small number of people. If you want to play a big game of chess, it is not enough to rely on your big arms. The most important thing is your brain.

"...Then how can I say it? If you need human protection, I can provide it, as well as weapons!" Obviously, Sabalin is not very good at using his brain, and he showed a hole card at the beginning.

"You are now a director of the alliance. According to the rules, directors cannot participate in the management of daily affairs. It will be very troublesome for the government to find out if you do this." But Hong Tao still couldn't immediately trust the tribal leader he met for the first time.

The rebel army was infiltrated and funded by the East Asian Alliance. God knows how many leaders there have already expressed their stance.Although the preliminary work is all carried out by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Zhou Yuan must be able to control most of it, so she cannot be 100% assured.

"...We suffered a loss in the negotiations, the Han people are too cunning! Uncle Biss, I never regarded you as a Han, you are Yuluo, the eagle of Xinjiang Province, and the protector of the shepherds.

Those in the East Asian League don't really want to help us, they're just using us against the Redeemer.Now the Redeemers are gone, and the Rebels are useless old horses.

But what can be done, the Redeemer alone can't win, and the East Asian Alliance must have no way out.Fortunately, Minister Zhou promised that he would not force religion and living habits, which is much better than the Redeemer.

However, our ethnic group is required to mix with other people. The purpose of this is obvious. The next step will definitely require intermarriage. It will not take many years for our ethnic group to disappear.

I'm not complaining, without the help of the Alliance, the Clan would also be bit by bit eaten by the Judgment.The agreement is signed, it is voluntary, and we recognize it.But when we got here, we realized that we had no advantage over other refugees in the safe zone, and it was very difficult for us to support ourselves.

Including my ethnic group, a total of more than 8300 people migrated this time. According to the agreement, 1000 people will stay in Chang'an, 1500 people will stay in Changchun, 1500 people will live in Jinmen Port, and 1500 people will be absorbed by the army, factories, and mines.

Except for women and children, the rest are old people. They can only do simple food and handicrafts. Many people can't even speak Chinese, let alone do business. How can they live? "

Chapter 921 Pull the Alliance

Sabalin was not slow at all, and immediately heard the distrust in the words.In fact, none of the leaders who survived the seven-year siege of the Redeemer and still have absolute dominance over the ethnic group had obvious shortcomings.

Fortunately, with Camilla as an intermediary, the two sides no longer need to start with establishing initial trust.Avoiding this most difficult stage, the following words will be easier to say, as long as you can express your sincerity, try to be as honest as possible, and don't always play around with others as fools, it will be effective.

"Well, now not only the rebels, but also the redeemers are moving eastward together. As far as I know, this big migration will continue until the first heavy snow falls in Xinjiang this year. There are tens of thousands of people, and the burden of the alliance is also very heavy. Heavy, impossible to do everything.

Your difficulties are real, but don't expect the alliance to solve them all.You have also seen the current situation. It is such a situation. No one has the ability to settle the lives of tens of thousands of people immediately. It is very difficult to satisfy food, drink and housing to a certain extent.

If you want to change the status quo, you must rely on your own efforts. In fact, you have been doing well in this regard before. Although the environment has changed, the core content has not changed. Whether you can change it depends on your own determination.All I can do is to point out how to change from experience, the important thing is not me, but you! "

With sincerity, Hong Tao will still not give too much trust, but he can already discuss the facts.Regarding the resettlement of immigrants from Xinjiang Province, it has actually started since he arrived in the capital.

I have been busy for more than a year, and I have indeed achieved great results. At least tens of thousands of people can live in sheltered houses, there is enough food in the market, and they can drink relatively hygienic well water. Infrastructure projects and expansion of factory capacity absorbed part of the workforce.

However, compared with the continuous influx of immigrants, the achievements that have been made are obviously not enough.There is a problem of ability, but more of it is caused by internal friction between various parts of the alliance.

For example, the Ministry of Agriculture should have been the largest labor-receiving unit at this time, but in this vigorous immigration movement, it was not very conspicuous, quite satisfactory, and too quiet.

Why did this happen? Hong Tao didn't ask anyone. He came to a conclusion based on his own knowledge of the alliance. Some people didn't want to watch the Ministry of Agriculture become a giant.

The current Minister of Agriculture, Yang Xitang, and Deputy Minister Yang Ping are both centrists, and they are particularly firm. If the centrists are allowed to grow, they will be another Jiaoqiao. Neither the reformists nor the royalists are willing to see this result.

This situation cannot be resolved in a short period of time, so Hong Tao simply can't count on it.Wouldn't the immigrants be able to survive without the command of the alliance? Obviously not.

Without the East Asian Alliance, or even the Revival Alliance, the other survivor organizations did not all starve to death.If it is said that there are favorable conditions for abundant materials in the early stage, then in the later stage, when the materials are gradually scarce, people still live well.

Take the rebel army as an example. They fought while producing. Most of the population that died was due to war and disease. It cannot be said that there were no real starvation and thirst deaths, but very few.

Now that there is peace, why can't we live on? This is unscientific and unreasonable.So the key to the problem is not whether there is an alliance to take care of it, but whether you have the determination to live a good life.

It cannot be said that now that there is peace and no more wars, you will immediately relax and prepare to enjoy the blessings, thinking that everything will fall from the sky, and you don't have to do anything, just open your mouth and wait.

Environmental change is not a reason. If this is a no-man's land, there is no basic condition for human survival. The problem is that there are nearly 10 people living here. Why can't you survive here?

The ancients said that saving the emergency is not helping the poor, and Hong Tao also has this concept.People who are willing to work hard but have little energy to use are worth saving. People who don't intend to work hard at all, and only want to get something for nothing, not only cannot be saved, but they have to look for opportunities to step on them.The more such people die, the faster the human race will develop.

"...Most of us are still willing to support ourselves, but we are not very good at farming. Is it too late to learn now?"

Sabalin made Hong Tao blush a little. It is estimated that not only some people in the rebel army have thought this way, but even he himself has this kind of thought.Just waiting for the alliance's charity, forgetting that he also has hands and feet.

"I guess it's too late, and I'm not very good at farming. Sabalin, I want to ask you a question, and I'll answer it after thinking it over. After so many days, you must have walked around and observed the life here. Status. Would you be satisfied if your people lived like most refugees?"

Obviously, Sabalin didn't fully understand the voice-over of what he said, so it doesn't matter, so let's clarify the question, be more specific, and thoroughly understand the leader's current appeal.

"...Uncle Bizes, you are my benefactor and also the benefactor of all the rebels. We respect and appreciate you very much and are willing to fight like soldiers for you. But I cannot represent other leaders, let alone convince them.

We have all heard about your current situation, and the attitude of the council is also very clear.If it was an ungrateful villain, we wouldn't be here.But this matter is too big, and the East Asian Alliance is not a savior, I can't risk the lives of my people! "

Sabalin lived up to Hong Tao's expectations, with only two options of agreeing and disagreeing, there was no room for maneuver at all, so he could only tear off all the pretense and speak out what was in his heart.

After being forced to leave the familiar land of his hometown, this brave and sturdy leader of the rebel army had to lower his once high head under the eaves of others for the benefit of the whole family, ready to accept his fate.

"Don't be ashamed of your choice. As a leader, this choice is correct. But you still lack a little observation ability, thinking that what you see is the truth. Sometimes, eyes can be deceiving.

My situation is not what you see, but why it is like this again, there are some reasons behind it that most people don't know.I won't go into the details, but give an example.

As far as I know, the Rebel Army is not very united. It was once split because of Camilla's father, which greatly weakened its strength.If there was no internal conflict, I would not be too passive in the next few years.Even if the Southwest Alliance pulls back, it should be able to hold most of the southern border.

In the same way, if the East Asian Alliance is split because of my appearance, not only the original members of the alliance, but also new members like you will be affected, and they may even become hostile to each other.

I'm not saying that I'm much better than Camilla's father, but I have my own demands on this issue, and when I'm not sure that I'm right, I'll try to avoid such things from happening.

So, your worries just now are superfluous. I don't mean to use favors to win you over to become private soldiers to bargain or fight against the alliance.I just ask you to express your inner feelings frankly on behalf of the tribe. Based on this answer, I can give specific ways to improve. "

Facing Sabalin's frankness, Hong Tao was a little embarrassed.Many people, including acquaintances, will take it for granted that they regard themselves as a politician who is very passionate about power, ruthless and full of tricks.

And I can't cut my stomach open like in the movie, and let everyone see how many bowls of noodles I ate.The only thing I can give them is benefits, visible and tangible benefits.

As for convincing others with ideas, it seems unreliable.Even the ancients who lived thousands of years ago understood the truth, knowing etiquette if you have a warehouse, knowing honor and disgrace if you have enough food and clothing.

If a person has problems with food, drink, housing and transportation, how can it be possible to improve his self-cultivation and reach the level of knowing etiquette and honor and disgrace?If you do not reach this level, you will not be able to tell what is right and what is wrong, and you will be prone to blind obedience and credulity, and the probability of being fooled is high.
