Beneath the Upper City

No one knows when it began—

But the world was split in two.

Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...

Chapter 966 The Wind Rises

When this speculation came up, Ning Fan couldn't help but get excited.

If the common goal of both sides is to go to the upper city, then there is a possibility of sitting down and communicating.

Of course, even if this was possible, Ning Fan knew that now was not the best time to take the initiative to find the other party.

On the one hand, the strength on our side is not matched by that of the other side.

Even though Ning Fan had a strong army and almost captured half of the lower city, and had high-level [Thousand Souls Level] warriors like Wigginton and Guan Shanyue in charge, he was still a little lacking in confidence when facing the [Ten Thousand Souls Level].

The combined strength of Wigginton and Guan Shanyue is enough to tie with Bai Peng.

This is still a good way to think.

Bai Peng had actually fought against Su Wanjun of the Ten Thousand Souls Level, and Ning Fan knew what the outcome was.

Therefore, Ning Fan was not underestimating himself, but he really felt that he did not have enough capital.

On the other hand, although he had the broken sword in his hand, he was still not sure what the real use of this [key] was.

The information asymmetry may also cause Ning Fan to be led by the other party when he faces the other party.

Ning Fan didn't like this feeling.

So, we will definitely talk about it.

But not now.

During this period, Ning Fan will try his best to understand the other party, while continuing to improve his own strength and reach a balance with the other party as soon as possible.

"husband."

Wen Cai looked at Ning Fan who was thinking, and said gently, "If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. You don't have to accompany me."

Ning Fan looked up and saw a sweet smile.

What surprised Wen Cai was that Ning Fan smiled and shook his head.

"For the next period of time...I'll have to stick to you."

Not only Wen Cai, almost everyone did not expect that Ning Fan would be resting for more than half a year this time.

During the past six months, almost all the affairs of Yecheng were assigned by Ning Fan, and he became a hands-off boss. He felt as if he had gained power and began to let himself go.

After breaking away from Ning Fan's "control", Yecheng did not fall into chaos, but instead became prosperous.

The reason for this is that Ning Fan understands that professional matters should be left to professionals.

First of all, Yecheng's team has been re-divided.

The team of about two million people was first divided into two major categories.

One type is specially trained for fighting against exotic beasts, while the other type is used to fight against humans.

This was an idea proposed by Duan Weijun before.

Everyone has their own expertise. Just as everyone has been accustomed to fighting humans before, they would feel uncomfortable if they suddenly encountered a large-scale wave of alien beasts.

On the other hand, if we only train for alien beasts, then later on, if we need to participate in wars among humans, we will feel a little uncomfortable.

However, the possibility of human civil war in the future will become smaller and smaller, so the military forces of these two parts are not evenly distributed.

There are only 600,000 humans fighting on this side.

As for the specialization in exotic beasts...

One million and a half!

This was the general direction Ning Fan had set half a year ago when he had some free time.

In the future, mankind’s greatest enemy will be alien beasts!

While the team specializing in exotic beasts continues to grow, the War Academy is also expanding rapidly.

At present, these 1.5 million people have more or less "studied" in war colleges.

This huge team was also divided into five legions.

The First Legion: [Opening the Mountain].

Legion commander, Guan Shanyue.

Second Legion: [Destroy].

Legion Commander, Wigginton.

The Third Legion: [Po Jun].

Legion commander: Duan Weijun.

The Fourth Legion: [Against the Night].

Legion Commander: Gerlan.

The Fifth Legion: [Tongtian].

Legion Commander: Lu Yiming.

Among them, it was quite surprising that two of them became leaders.

One of them is Gerlan.

This "surrendered general" from Region A was initially difficult to trust.

After all, when he was brought to Yecheng, he was more like a hostage.

But just as Ning Fan had thought before, the lower city was already in chaos, and the concepts of each district were becoming increasingly blurred.

After seeing the strength of Yecheng, Gerlan also made his own judgment on the situation.

It is almost a pipe dream to want to maintain the independence of Region A.

After discussing with Little York over the phone, Little York also decided to completely merge into Yecheng.

At this point, after showing enough obedience, Gerlan gradually gained Yecheng's trust.

Another person who was unexpectedly able to obtain a legion was Lu Yiming.

Ever since Lu Yiming proved that he could truly avoid being attacked by alien beasts...

This old man, who was already quite old, began an extremely painful journey in life.

He was thrown under Duan Weijun's command to learn how to lead troops in battle.

Given Duan Weijun's character, no matter who you are, as long as you come to me, you are my soldier.

How you treat others is how you treat yourself.

Lu Yiming regained the feeling of youth.

Duan Weijun scolded him more than once in front of many people, saying he was stupid and slow to react...

Afterwards, a man who had a good relationship with him in the army tried to persuade him: "When your son was here, he was scolded much worse than you!"

Just like that, Lu Yiming gritted his teeth and persevered despite Lu Yuan's dissatisfaction.

He also became the last person to be entrusted with the leadership position.

Before taking office as commander, Lu Yiming also went through a test.

Lead troops to attack Area D.

Lu Yiming fought very well in that battle.

This silenced many people.

Yes.

Region D was also taken down by the passing troops during the past six months.

At present, except for the original F area that has been occupied by strange beasts, Yecheng has actually conquered more than half of the lower city.

District B has not contacted Ning Fan again, and Yecheng has no intention of attacking District B.

Yecheng also wanted to go through Area B to see what the situation was with the Southern Defense Force.

What disappointed everyone was that the Southern Defense Force was surprisingly quiet during this period.

It seems that after they occupied Area C, they had no other plans.

Even though Ning Fan was on vacation during this period, he could probably guess that the Southern Defense Force was not settling down, but was waiting for an opportunity.

He believed that once there was movement in District C, this movement...

It will be huge!

It is worth mentioning that for more than half a year, Yecheng was not satisfied with just defending the forbidden wall.

With the joint cooperation of several major legions, the defense line on the Yecheng side has been pushed out of the previous buffer zone.

At present, a large number of troops have been stationed outside the Forbidden Wall.

Fifteen kilometers outside the forbidden wall is all Yecheng’s defense line!
