Chapter 395 Six Cities
"Goodbye, we will treat you well when we arrive in Yanzhou."

"We also want to stay, at least to see what's going on, but life is hard. The loan will be repaid in two months. We must first get some valuable prey. This time the harvest is quite big, but it is negative financially. .”

"We also want to fight, but we may regroup when we go back in the second round, and the team leader is gone."

"It's not that I don't want to participate, but we haven't ceased fire on the southern front. We were able to come because our brothers switched defenses. Now we have to go back."

Some things seem to be a little different from Zheng Li's expected development.

On the temporary social network of newcomers, when the twin-city strategy was proposed and the war between Xingping and Qiuzhishan was imminent, many newcomer groups chose to leave.

There are many reasons, reasons, and even excuses, but the most fundamental thing, Zheng Li can still see it.

"They have already reaped the greatest benefits, so they are ready to leave. If blood and tears must be shed or something, at least if they pay for their own city-state, it can still be counted as a work-related injury."

In the second round, everyone knew that the risk was high and terrifying, but not many people backed down. At this stage, when the main force on the battlefield was replaced by the coalition forces of the six cities in the central region, the newcomers retreated from the main force to the auxiliary position, and many people naturally Then there are other ideas.

"At least, wait until the calculation results of the third round come out. Didn't you have glorious battle achievements before, don't you want to exchange them?"

"It's okay, the calculation results and later rewards will not go away. Honorary military exploits and so on, the exchange is also a post-war matter, and then I will ask someone to help with it."

It really can't be said that the "newcomer battle group" is too realistic. Zheng Li himself knows that without the approval of the official forces in the big city and the neutral forces behind it, it is impossible for them to retreat.

It seems that many big cities and big forces feel that support is already in place, and it is too much to send precious newcomers, those future trump cards who have already enjoyed great benefits, and have been tempered with a high probability of being above the myth, to the real battlefield of life and death. adventure.

But most of the battle groups in Shiqian City did not retreat.

Even the crippled Martial Arts Alliance stuffed the remaining few survivors into other war groups. Zheng Li named a person here, but the reorganization was not over, and I don't know if it was approved or not.

"Why do we have to stick to Digital City. Ninh Binh City?"

Regarding the rabbit's question, Zheng Li pointed directly at the map on the living room wall.

The six cities in the central part are scattered in all directions in this area. Beast City is the westernmost, Xiujiang City is the southernmost (the border with foreigners is the most stressful), Beishi City is the northernmost and Digital City is the first big city. The place of origin, its geographical location is in the middle.

Shiqian City, as the youngest city, is located in the area between Xiujiang and Ningping.

"We, are allies?"

"Well, generally speaking, the neighboring big cities are the Iron Alliance, because the only reinforcements you can count on in case of an accident are the nearest other big cities."

This is also the reason why Shiqian City and Xiujiang City have a good relationship. The number of mutual rescues in history is higher than that of Shiqian City. It stands to reason that the other party still owes Shiqian City favors.

Iron and steel allies in the military, the best choice in trade, and sharing and interoperability in technology. When the outside world is still full of enemies, neighboring cities must have good relations.

"The other big cities"

"Haven't they already finished aiding? And they are indeed under a lot of pressure. Every city has its own front. Except for Beishi City, except for some special places, their surroundings are as safe as heaven, but there is no People are counting on the legion of Beishi City, and it is enough to leave a few top-level fighters, people with rare abilities, and propaganda organizations."

Zheng Li already knew some of these things, but in order to make an accurate decision, he specifically asked Room Chief Long Biao to confirm.

These "common senses" are not secrets in the first place, but the understanding at the official level is more comprehensive and rational, so that they will not be distracted by some media.

Room Chief Long Biao also added a bunch of private goods by the way, which made Zheng Li not sure how to evaluate it. If these things leaked out of his mouth, it would probably cause a bunch of diplomatic disputes.

"Beishi City, don't think of him as a whole. Their big thinkers are a collection of ruthless people. The internal factions are too complicated. Your friendship and disputes with some of them can be regarded as only with a certain person." The relationship between factions should not be extended. Whether they are trustworthy on the battlefield or not depends on which faction you want to see, and the difference is huge."

"Myriad Beast City, we are quite far away, and we have relatively few contacts, but the relationship is actually quite good. Among the six cities, we have a relatively high proportion of subhumans and aliens, and the history is relatively short. Racism is relatively rare. Few. We sometimes conduct academic and technical exchanges, but it often turns out that they spend a lot of resources to buy our new technologies, and even second-hand technologies from other cities. They have quite good relationships with Yanzhou, Beishi, and Xiujiang. Difference."

While chatting at that time, Zheng Li realized that something was wrong. These things probably exceeded his own inquiries, and it was not suitable for a newcomer to know.

But Zheng Li also knew that this was good intentions, and it was something he had to know. When he was young, he accidentally made a mistake with a friend and said something critical, and it might become an indelible political stain in the future.

Communication at the city level does not mean that there is no emotion or personal dislike, but the core of the communication is the interests. These are the things Chief Long has repeatedly hinted at.

"If you want to make friends, you'd better make 'good friends' from Shiqian City. Otherwise, your position in the future will be very delicate."

Zheng Li shook his head helplessly, but he had to listen carefully.

"Yanzhou City has the strongest comprehensive strength among the six cities. They are not one of them. They are quite trustworthy on the battlefield, and they can make friends in all aspects. Many Yanzhou craftsmen and technical scholars wander among the six cities all year round, exchanging ideas. , Conducting the development of new technologies. In this regard, the other five cities owe them a lot. But they are also under a lot of pressure. Several lines of defense are against the enemy of mankind, and this time there is no regular army."

Zheng Li opened his mouth, but did not ask in the end, about the Yanzhou native's performance in this rookie competition.
"I know what you're thinking. First of all, their main force is civil forces, that is, those neutral forces with signs. They are quite loose inside, but they can be gathered when necessary. Second, a rock that has built a good position The state battle group is the real Yanzhou iron army, and the field battle is at least two grades weaker."

Zheng Li nodded silently. He had heard the saying that Yanzhou was number one in overall strength several times before, but he might not see the real Yanzhou Iron Army on special occasions. The battlefield environment this time is indeed It is not suitable for Yanzhou people to play. The second and third rounds are all escape battles where the enemy is strong and we are weak. They are still in the body of the gods, and a large number of spiritual equipment cannot be used.

"Xiujiang, our brother cities. They are all militarized special city-states, similar in style to Digital City, and their overall strength will be at the top of the list. They are trustworthy on the battlefield, 'Xiujiang in the field, defensive battle The "Yanzhou" are all comrades-in-arms groups worthy of entrusting the rear and flanks. Correspondingly, there are "crazy Beishi and crazy beasts", who are pure individualists and often lose their chains on the battlefield. Not to be trusted, but sometimes there are surprises."

Hearing this, Zheng Li was also a little curious.

"The digital city, or our time-shifted city? Is there nothing to say?"

"Uh, 'ordinary time shift', it doesn't really matter, we're short after all, and there's... a digital city that drives people crazy. 'Crazy Bei Poem' is what drives digital people crazy. You haven't seen Bei The appearance of high-level poets and high-level digital people together, tsk, it’s best not to see them, the ideas and work styles of the two sides are completely opposite, there is a high probability of talking and doing things, and there can be infighting from the grassroots to the top, so don’t make them into A combat system is considered common sense."
