War, behind these two simple words, there are bloody records.

The peak population of the Eastern Han Dynasty was about 65 million; during the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China, the population dropped sharply by 40 million. The Yanhuang civilization was once forced into a desperate situation.

The peak population of the Song Dynasty was about 126 million, and the national population at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty was 8.87 million.

From the late Qing Dynasty to the founding of the People's Republic of China, the number of abnormal deaths was about 150 million.

These are all tragedies that are imprinted in the soul of the Yanhuang civilization.

Similarly, for the Yanhuang civilization, war and conflict are different.

A battle involving hundreds or thousands of people can only be called a conflict. Only tens of thousands of people can be called a war.

The total population between the Tianlong people and the justice camp is about 45 million now - only counting the Hongsong City cluster and the Cangyun City cluster;

Among them, the Hongsong City cluster is about 20 million - a lot of people died in a series of recent battles and chaos.

In Hongsong City, the population of the Tianlong camp is about 12 million;

And the population of the justice camp is only about 8 million.

The reason for this is that ordinary people are blindly obedient. Everyone has been brainwashed by the various propaganda of the Tianlong Cult, and then they are coerced.

The justice camp has some bottom line in doing things, but they lost at the starting line.

However, in the war of the cultivation era, the number of people is not the main thing, but the number of masters is also important. But the Tianlong camp can cooperate with alien species and even ghosts.

In fact, this is also an important reason why the Tianlong camp has a large number of people.

For the vast majority of ordinary people, visible benefits are called benefits; if you talk about long-term benefits to ordinary people, ordinary people will ask you: what to eat tomorrow.

It's not that they don't know that there may be danger the day after tomorrow, but if they don't accept the current conditions, they can't get through tomorrow.

Sometimes you can't blame ordinary people for being short-sighted, nor is it that ordinary people don't have dreams. It's because reality forces ordinary people to rush for the next meal and can't pay the price for their dreams.

This situation is especially true in the end times. Alien species are rampant, ghosts are rampant, and if you don't want to die, you either run away with your family or you can only join the Tianlong people.

Running away with your family is unknown; joining the Tianlong people seems to be unchanged.

Faced with this situation, ordinary people will of course vote with their feet.

But ordinary people don't know the game between the top leaders, and don't know the changes at the higher level now. Thunder City will never let the Tianlong people mess up like this, but the Flame City is fanning the flames and will not let go easily.

War has long been inevitable, it's just a matter of when it will break out.

So, is the war about to break out or even has already broken out? Then how will the war be triggered?

In just a moment, these thoughts flashed through Chu Fei's mind, and he slowly landed.

Lan Wenjiang looked solemn, and when he saw Chu Fei, he still waved excitedly, "My nephew is back at the right time. There was an emergency, and my nephew's strength may be needed."

Chu Fei asked calmly, "What's the matter?"

"Let's talk about it later."

Chu Fei nodded and waited silently by the side.

Whether to participate in this matter or not, let's see what happens.

His plan here at the Lan family is basically completed by 70%. The remaining one is to use the lava cave to temper the body. But there is no other way without the lava cave, at most building a high-temperature furnace.

There is nothing that science can't solve, especially such a simple thing.

However, the most important thing about the lava cave is that in addition to the high temperature, there is also special energy. If you build your own equipment, the energy problem is not easy to solve.

However, if there is really no way, building it yourself is also a good method. It is better than being cannon fodder.

Although the cultivation level of 11.0 is okay, Chu Fei dare not waste it because there are 12.0 masters behind this conflict.

After waiting for another ten minutes, in addition to the military personnel of the Lan family and Black Mountain City, there are also representatives of some foreign families, mercenary groups, etc.

This is related to the current situation of Black Mountain City. Because there are too many outsiders, the Lan family "sold" one-third of Black Mountain City.

In fact, it is impossible not to sell it. Those who come here are all cross-river dragons. The Lan family simply goes with the flow and gains a lot of materials, technology, etc.

Similarly, today's meeting also invited these foreign representatives to participate.

Many representatives looked at Chu Fei at first glance, and then nodded slightly.

Although Chu Fei did not speak, he has become the brightest cub at the scene. Especially those who are familiar with Chu Fei, they stared at the long sword hanging on Chu Fei's waist.

In the past, Chu Fei's main combat weapons were long swords and whips, which were used as emergency weapons. These were not secrets, and there was no way to keep them secret.

But today, Chu Fei no longer had a long sword, but a long sword.

Compared to the domineering long sword, this long sword was somewhat delicate.

Compared to Chu Fei's 1.8-meter height, the one-meter long sword looked a bit like an embroidery needle.

But as a master of cultivation, when he saw Chu Fei change his weapon, his eyes became more fearful.

Long swords, in the hands of ordinary people, are just funny and cool, and are really not as useful as long swords.

But in the hands of masters, they are weapons of killing, and that is a kind of killing horror that ordinary people can't imagine.

Chu Fei, obviously a master!

But facing the scrutiny and questioning eyes of the crowd, Chu Fei said nothing, but just stood quietly, like a swordsman who was isolated from the world.

However, the more Chu Fei did this, the more attention he attracted. Many people whispered to each other, so more people noticed that Chu Fei had changed his weapon.

Just as everyone gradually gave up on Lan Wenjiang and began to pay attention to Chu Fei, Lan Wenjiang clapped his hands, coughed twice, and said: "Okay, everyone is here, let's have a small meeting.

Because there are so many people and there are so many things to show, I can only trouble everyone to sit in the press conference hall for a while.

The environment is not very good, please forgive me."

Everyone doesn't care about the environment, but wants to know what happened that made Lan Wenjiang call everyone over.

Sitting in the press conference hall, Lan Wenjiang came to the podium and first opened a map. The map was not very clear, but it was pretty good. At least Chu Fei could see the high walls of Hongsong City and Heishan City at a glance.

This is a map centered on Hongsong City, with all the Hongsong City clusters drawn on it, including some mountains, rivers, major gathering points for strange beasts, and part of the territory of Cangyun City.

There are also important information such as roads on it.

Through the scale, the approximate data can be clearly calculated.

Lan Wenjiang pointed to the location of "Yaohe City" and spoke:

"Yaohe City, as everyone knows, is an important high wall that has always been under the control of the Zhao family. Moreover, the Zhao family's rule here is quite overbearing, and they even dare to rob the wife and daughter of a 10.0 master.

After the recent exposure of the Tianlong people, the Zhao family has become more overbearing and more outrageous, and has developed to open robbery.

And something happened recently. Several masters of the justice camp joined forces to destroy the city lord's mansion of Yaohe City, cleaned and blocked Yaohe City, and at the same time gathered some people in the surrounding high walls who were righteous and gathered together to defend the city.

Because the Tianlong people and the masters of the justice camp were in a subtle confrontation, Yaohe City was relatively safe. Stable.

But recently, the Tianlong people have once again led a group of ghosts to descend and launched a crazy attack on Yaohe City.

The Tianlong people said that they would kill everyone in Yaohe City unless they knelt down in front of the Tianlong totem.

In less than two days, more than 30,000 people died in Yaohe City, and a large number of people knelt down in front of the Tianlong totem.

But the remaining people, there are still about 150,000 people, ready to break out. And these people are seriously lacking in weapons and equipment.

These people are a banner and must be rescued.

Just now, the inspector Zheng Chengan contacted me personally, and the Lan family had to organize an armed force above the awakened to join the rescue team.

The temporary retreat route is as follows..."

Everyone looked at the map and stopped talking.

Yaohe City, to the southeast of the Hongsong City cluster, is separated from Heishan City by a mountain range, with a straight-line distance of about 220 kilometers.

In the mountains in the end of the world, alien species are rampant and there are no roads. Ordinary people want to cross, it is difficult.

Or they can move northwest. But there are two high walls in the northwest: Jinji City and Jinsha City, both under the control of the Tianlong people.

The team can migrate to Jinji City, and then go west to Xiaoheishan City, with a total straight-line distance of about 230 kilometers.

From Jinji City to Xiaoheishan City, there is only a muddy mountain road - better than nothing, and there are also mountains and forests along the way, so the safety is not high.

Especially Jinji City is under the control of the Tianlong people, which is even more dangerous.

As for crossing Jinji City and continuing north, passing Jinsha City, and then detouring to Hongsong City, all the way on the highway, but the second half will take the initiative to enter the core area of ​​the Tianlong people and take the initiative to die.

Therefore, if you want to withdraw these 150,000 people, there are only two directions.

One is to cross the mountains and reach Heishan City directly. The straight-line distance is 220 kilometers, and the actual distance is unknown.

One is to go north, pass Jinji City, and then cross the low hills and forests. The total straight-line distance is 230 kilometers, and the actual distance is estimated to be no more than 300 kilometers. But Jinji City is the territory of the Tianlong people.

In fact, there are also Tianlong people wandering in the north of Xiaoheishan City, and the army and masters of Tianlong people may appear at any time.

And during the whole retreat process, it is impossible for Tianlong people not to take action. The most likely thing is that the masters will snipe.

Seeing such a route, Chu Fei was silent.

It is definitely not possible to stay, there are ghosts and Tianlong people. But the migration route is also full of dangers.

150,000 people, how many people can safely reach Heishan City or Xiaoheishan City in the end?

It can be foreseen that this is a difficult battle, and the casualties will inevitably be heavy.

It is not even ruled out that the Tianlong people are completely prepared to "siege and attack the reinforcements" to eliminate the masters and elites of the justice camp.

In short, no one at the scene spoke.

Lan Wenjiang took a deep breath, "Everyone, the current situation is that if we win together, we win together, and if we lose together, we lose together. If these people cannot be rescued, or even if we don't rescue them at all, the consequences will be unimaginable. The remaining people will turn to the Tianlong people in large numbers.

Recently, the Tianlong people have been slaughtering captives and sacrificing ghosts on a large scale, especially to your families who have come here, they are the most cruel!

No one has a way out."

Finally, someone spoke up: "Our Jincheng Merchant Group can support some masters. But I have to go back and count the specific number. This matter requires voluntary registration."

Lan Wenjiang immediately said: "For all those who participated in this rescue, rewards, compensation, etc., are all implemented according to the standards of Thunder City.

In the later stage, these rewards can be used to enter Thunder City for trading. If you die, you can also give them to your children or beneficiaries designated in your will.

Those who participate in the battle at the same time will get a quota and can send their children and descendants to Thunder City for study. This opportunity can be sold."

As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards, and more people signed up immediately.

Chu Fei figured out the matter, but didn't say anything, just quietly left the hall.

When he came to his secret room, he saw Wang Yujing practicing, with a steady and vast breath in his body. He was already a half-step 10.0 awakened master.

Now he is only one step away from breaking through.

Maybe after Wang Yujing consolidates his cultivation, he will naturally break through.

Chu Fei's arrival made Wang Yujing wake up. After seeing Chu Fei, his face turned red, but he still stood up.

This time, Chu Fei did not stop Wang Yujing from being busy, and said directly: "Something happened, and the war may break out at any time. You sort out all the supplies, I will go to Qingshi City first and report to Zheng Chengan on the work."

After a brief exchange of information with Wang Yujing, Chu Fei spread his wings and flew away.

From Heishan City to Qingshi City, you need to pass through Xiaoheishan City first, and the total straight-line distance is about 235 kilometers.

With Chu Fei's current extreme flying ability, that is, the swift transformation, he can go back and forth in half an hour. But Chu Fei didn't want to reveal the secret of the swift transformation for the time being, so he still flew with dragonfly wings.

The maximum speed of dragonfly wings can reach more than 500 kilometers, but it is most appropriate to maintain a speed of 400 kilometers per hour at this time - the speed, energy consumption, time, etc. are all reasonable, which can maintain good maneuverability, and can also scan the surroundings to prevent rushing into the encirclement due to excessive speed.

And this time, going to Qingshi City is not just about asking about the war situation, but more importantly... rewards!

After the last melee between the masters of the Justice Camp and the Tianlong Camp, Chu Fei left and attracted two ghosts; recently, Black Mountain City encountered a beast tide crisis, which was also solved by Chu Fei.

And just now, Chu Fei also killed 13 10.0 awakened Tianlong people.

There must be rewards for these three things.

Thunder Land City should be very difficult now, but the more it is at this time, Thunder Land City should not be stingy.

Especially when a war is about to break out, it is the best opportunity to ask for rewards.

As for saying that the group is difficult and everyone will overcome difficulties together, Chu Fei will never believe it. If you don't believe me, just look at the bosses. They always look sad, and they get a new car. They talk about business in the club at night and spend money like water.

This is the end of the world. If people don't think more about themselves, even if they are not punished by heaven and earth, they will be killed by the enemy because of the lack of weapons, equipment, medicine and cultivation resources.

During the flight, Chu Fei even calculated how much reward he should get. And his own cultivation realm, should he hide it?

The cultivation in the virtual machine is easy to block. This is another application of the virtual machine-let the virtual machine suspend and be in standby mode.
