How am I still alive?

Chapter 1599 Rest
Once a war starts, it will be difficult to end it before both sides can no longer bear it.

In fact, many countries and people regard this as the beginning of the Third World War.

This plane war has undoubtedly affected most countries in the world, and most people in the world will be affected directly or indirectly. When the disaster strikes, everyone finds that the peaceful life they used to live in is so precious and fragile.

And now, the island countries in the Pacific probably have the most painful understanding of this reality.

"Perhaps, some countries are about to disappear from the stage of history."

A large number of victims were housed in crude log warships, and even though local officials had stressed that the area was safe, they were still reluctant to take refuge in the city gymnasium.

Rumors and gossips continue to spread, and the citizens who were lucky enough to have saved their lives have become frightened birds. No one can really make them feel at ease. In fact, under the current circumstances, it is not a good thing to really feel at ease and let down one's guard.

No one can guarantee that this place will not become a battlefield again. Some of the victims hope to be protected by foreign fleets, believing that without these Easterners, everyone will die. Others try to expel these outsiders, believing that they will bring disaster. Both sides' claims seem likely to come true.

Looking at the heavy rain in front of him and the confused and desperate people behind him, Lu Ping'an also had a lot of insights.

The memories of two lives made him subconsciously believe that the modern state system was quite stable. Even if the fighting outside was fierce, his hometown would be in a peaceful daily life. But now it seemed that no one was really special. When the plane war started, no one was ready.

Perhaps, the modern country that has been passed down for thousands of years will become history because of this war.

Lu Ping'an shook his head and stopped thinking about those trivial things. He was just a part of the whole world, a slightly larger chess piece.

“Just do your own thing.”

As a savior, Lu Ping'an is first-rate, and as a war legion, the Third Fleet, which has gathered a large amount of resources from the East Country, is also first-rate.

As time passed, the heavy rain stopped, and the rescue and conquest of Hengyu City was completed.

Outside the port, the huge sea beast had been dead for a long time, and the severed and burnt snake heads were dragged to the dock. Craftsmen and porters were busy processing this extraordinary trophy.

A large number of fish heads have been piled up like a mountain in the port area, and the huge Legions have been pushed and piled together to form a temporary line of defense.

There was no suspense in this battle. After all, this city was only one of the targets of the foreign invaders. Sending several overlords was already a high-level deployment, and the Third Fleet that came to support was the elite combat force group of the East Country.

There is naturally no suspense when a fist hits a little finger. The slow-running overlord-level creatures may even leave the corpse behind.

"We resisted for a day and a half, but our defense line collapsed."

The local defense force is much stronger than expected.

This is an important commercial port, as well as a possible entry point for reinforcements and resources, and possibly even an escape route for local residents, so it naturally requires special defense.

In fact, there used to be two divisions and a Demon Hunting Knight Corps (a local supernatural regiment), but after the seventh-level garrison was surrounded and eaten by the overlords, it was only a matter of time before the city collapsed.

However, the damage to high-end combat forces and the existence of local extraordinary legions did buy the city more time.

A group of people managed to escape at the first moment, mainly seamen and fishermen, as well as a few citizens who had been prepared. Many of them had even been living and eating on the boat for half a month. They were even ridiculed by the local news media as frightened lunatics two days ago. But there is no point in pursuing these now. Going by land would probably be a dead end, and now floating on the sea is also a risk of death.

Those who stayed in the city lived two more days and waited for reinforcements, but...
"Originally, there were more than 400,000 citizens here, and now, there are probably 50,000 to 60,000 survivors."

It was a blessing that about one-tenth of the people survived. If the rescue fleet had arrived one day later, there might have been only 10,000 or 20,000 people left. If it had been two days later, it would have been a rare opportunity to have a few thousand lucky people.

Lu Ping'an did not comfort the sad citizen. The director of the Civil Affairs Department was already the highest official in the local area. The City Hall turned into a deep pit in the first place. He was a rare administrative official among the survivors.

Lu Ping'an handed the task of comforting the refugees to his subordinates. After all, he was a soldier and had no mood to comfort the local victims. It was an almost endless job.

"Lieutenant General Su, what's the situation?"

Lieutenant General Su Yixin, a senior captain temporarily transferred from the Eastern Navy, has also been a military district administrator for at least twenty years.

He was dispatched when the rescue mission was being carried out. His identity was "armament inspector and military discipline inspector." But both his qualifications and reputation in the army far surpassed Lu Ping'an.

Before departure, an old general of the same rank as Lu Ping'an was urgently summoned. The purpose was quite clear. For a war of this level, although the authorities had great confidence in Lu Ping'an, they were still worried that he would mess around or make wrong strategic decisions due to insufficient tactical qualities.

"Our personnel are in good condition and morale is high. The damage to our ships is acceptable. Our logistics department said that the local shipyard is still usable. It seems that the fishmen on the other side took the initiative to preserve it."

After listening to the detailed description, Lu Ping'an shook his head.

"You don't need to tell me. Just make the arrangements. If there is anything you need me to do, just tell me directly."

Lu Ping'an didn't care about power at all. He was forced to do the job and had no interest in becoming a regular soldier.

There was someone willing to help him share the responsibility, and he was a veteran, so Lu Ping'an naturally would not refuse.

"Okay, I need you to go over and appease those high-level fighters. They seem to have some disagreements about the distribution of the spoils."

The old general was not polite and directly asked Lu Ping'an to deal with the dispute over high-level combat power.

This time the Third Fleet has come out in full force, and many of its high-level fighters are civilians or neutrals. Since they have taken action, they naturally want spoils of war, and since they are used to being brutal, they will naturally not let go easily.

"it is good."

Lu Ping'an was very decisive. He went over and solved the most troublesome high-level combat power dispute in just a few moves. He solved it so easily that many people who knew the matter could not understand.

What Lu Ping'an did was actually quite simple. What they were fighting for was nothing more than the inheritance of those overlords. Some things you have, I don't have, so Lu Ping'an asked them to sell them directly to the courtyard, and then distribute life points, and then spend them in his courtyard.

If someone wants a physical object, then they can bid internally and then divide the money. When there is a "general equivalent", many disputes become easy to accept, especially when Lu Ping An, the "bank", has the killer weapon of "blocking your account".

The Third Fleet reorganized as expected, while awaiting further orders and news from other fleets.

The First and Second Fleets were fighting in this area, and it was because they requested reinforcements that we rushed over from the South China Sea.

During the renovation period, Lu Ping'an was also constantly strengthening his own warships and defensive positions. As far as he understood, the news waiting to come on the battlefield was often worse news.

And this time, there is no exception.
