Chapter 135 Joint Pressure and Panic
Charles has gone mad, and everyone knows that he is unreasonable. People cannot reason with a madman, so naturally they can only transfer the pressure to the Jingshi base and try to get the relatively rational and communicative party to make concessions.
The world has always been like this.
However, Gu Jinsheng was not someone who could be swayed by external forces. Once he made a decision, he would not change it, no matter how hard it tried.
As for Ji An, he was too concerned about the overall situation in his previous life, which led to his death due to being wronged. Now that he has the opportunity, he is unwilling to wrong himself in this life again.
Both of them were like this, and the other subordinates in the Beijing base followed Gu Jinsheng and Ji An's lead, completely ignoring the pressure from the outside world.
The Research Institute was prepared, and with the accurate positioning of the missile launched by Base M, the missile was successfully intercepted again outside the borders of Xia State.
Considering that no one was living at H Base, the Research Institute destroyed the missiles at M Base over H Base this time. It did not cause any more damage, but it still scared the other bases.
Some bases that might be affected could no longer bear it and stopped standing idly by, and took the initiative to contact Base M.
"Commander Charles, hello. We are contacting you for the sake of the overall development of human peace. Now is the end of the world. It is a matter of life and death for mankind. It is not easy to fight among ourselves. No matter what grudges we have had before, we should put aside our prejudices and work together to overcome the difficulties."
One of Charles' eyes was destroyed in the last siege, and he had no chance to replace it. This time he wore a black eye patch, which made him look even more sinister and violent.
"Go and tell these things to Gu Jinsheng, why tell them to me? He is the one who doesn't want mankind to unite, and I am just a humble, pitiful commander-in-chief who is seeking the survival of the residents of my base."
Although they knew that Charles's words were all lies and the truth was far from it, no one dared to confront him. All the negotiators were afraid of angering Charles, which would make him even crazier and attack indiscriminately.
They could only speak kindly, even coaxing with a child's tone: "We know that the person who did something wrong this time was Gu Jinsheng. Since he has found an artificial planet for human survival, at this critical juncture, it should be opened to all mankind instead of hiding it."
This condemnation touched Charles' heart, and he was very satisfied.
Seeing Charles's expression soften, they dared to ask: "We will jointly condemn him at the Jingshi base, but I don't know what conditions you have on your side in order to be willing to coexist peacefully?"
Obviously, everyone is at the same level, but Charles's condescending attitude is as if he is the superior who can easily decide the life and death of the people on the other side of the video.
Charles said: "I am easy to talk to. As long as Gu Jinsheng agrees that the residents of my base will migrate to that artificial planet and promises to nominate me as the president of the new planet after migration, that will be fine."
"We will definitely find a way to make Gu Jinsheng agree. Your request is not excessive. As long as the Jingshi base does not want to be the enemy of all mankind, he must agree." At first, the commander-in-chief of the Y base did not react to the meaning of Charles' words and agreed immediately. He was also surprised that Charles was so easy to talk to this time.
It wasn't until the assistant beside him quietly touched his arm and whispered something in his ear that he reacted. He was so shocked that his pupils dilated and he almost lost his words.
The assistant quickly turned off the speaker.
"He's crazy, he wants to rule the world."
The assistant said: "If we simply persuade Gu Jinsheng to agree to the immigration of all mankind, it is possible for all bases to jointly exert pressure. But if Gu Jinsheng is asked to agree to Charles' rule over all mankind, Gu Jinsheng will definitely not agree."
"Don't even mention Gu Jinsheng. I won't agree to it either. Charles is so crazy that he has no mercy on the residents of his own territory. If he really becomes the president of all mankind, he will definitely do something crazy."
"Then what shall we do?"
"It's good that Charles said this. Let's convey Charles's intention to Gu Jinsheng first. Gu Jinsheng will definitely not agree to such a ridiculous request. Then we can take a step back and ask for the immigration of all human beings, which will be a good opportunity for negotiation."
If the entire human race had been proposed to migrate at the beginning, Gu Jinsheng would probably not agree. But if he first proposed an absurd request and then took a step back, then no matter how outrageous the subsequent request was, the other party would think it was not so bad compared to the first one.
After figuring this out, the representatives of Base Y pretended to agree and turned around to put pressure on the Base in Jing City.
When Ji An heard the serious conditions of the representatives, he almost laughed out loud in mockery. It had to be Gu Jinsheng. Faced with such outrageous conditions, Gu Jinsheng was able to keep his expressionless face straight.
"Impossible." Gu Jinsheng only gave three words.
The representatives on the other side of the video did not expect Gu Jinsheng to have such an attitude.
"You have to know that Charles is crazy. He won't listen to reason. If you don't agree to him, he will launch an H war against the Jing City Base."
How could Gu Jinsheng not know that the people on the opposite side were full of ulterior motives. They kept saying that they were doing it for the good of the Beijing base, but in fact they had their own plans.
"If that's all you want to say, I have something important to do and can't keep you company." Gu Jinsheng said this and was about to close the video conference, and the commanders on the opposite side who were arguing became panicked.
"No, we know it's hard for you to accept Charles as the president of the new planet. Let's put pressure on Charles with all our strength. You just have to agree to allow all humans to immigrate."
The representatives on the opposing side thought that they had already made concessions and that Gu Jinsheng would make some compromises no matter what.
Gu Jinsheng was still firm in his attitude, "I only accept Xia nationals as immigrants."
"Gu Jinsheng, you can't be too selfish. That planet doesn't belong to you alone. It belongs to all mankind."
"It was independently manufactured by our Xia country, so it belongs to our Xia country." Ji An said.
Seeing that Ji An was unhappy, Gu Jinsheng hung up the video call directly.
The representatives from the opposing base had never expected this result and looked at each other in bewilderment.
"How come this Gu Jinsheng is as difficult to deal with as Charles?"
"They are all crazy. They are all crazy."
"They all rely on their economic strength to dare to fight. What should we do with our bases that have not developed well in the post-apocalyptic economy?"
"Contact Charles and see if Charles is willing to compromise."
“Not likely.”
Charles hung up the video call without waiting for these people to finish speaking.
Charles doesn't care whether the residents of his jurisdiction can immigrate, he just wants to be the president of all mankind.
"How can these people be so shameless?" Kong Zhongcheng cursed angrily after the meeting.
"When we were making the artificial planet, they didn't contribute a penny. Now that we have made it, it becomes theirs. Why?" Wan Xueying was equally unconvinced.
"The funniest thing is Charles. He is only the commander-in-chief of a base on Earth. He wants to be the president of all mankind after immigrating to our artificial planet. What a bold idea! All good things will be his."
Ji An said: "It's all fantasy. However, we should also make preparations early."
Gu Jinsheng asked, "How is the follow-up improvement of the artificial planet going?"
"The soil and water sources are still insufficient, and there is not enough time. The psychics are already working overtime to purify the area. Many of them have exhausted themselves, but time is still needed."
Gu Jinsheng said: "Tell them to take a rest."
"I've forced them to rest."
The representatives of the European bases were unable to convince Charles or Gu Jinsheng, and they were extremely worried.
After thinking about it, forget about Charles. If he is pushed into a corner, he might go completely crazy and do something horrible, maybe even something crazy that would lead to the destruction of the whole world. So he put the pressure on the Beijing base.
These bases issued a joint statement that if the Jingshi Base did not open the artificial planet to all mankind, they would unite and launch an H war against the Jingshi Base.
"Boss, what should we do now?"
"Isn't it too unwilling to compromise like this?"
"We created that planet on our own. Why should they seize the fruits of our labor in the end?"
Owen said worriedly: "What I am more worried about is that even if we accept them and arrive at the new planet without the zombie crisis, they may not develop peacefully. Then they will attack us, on the planet we created, and fight us Xia people. It would be too cowardly for us."
"I will never compromise." Gu Jinsheng stated directly.
"If you want to live, then join the Xia nationality. The artificial planet is ours, and only our citizens can live on it." Ji An also refused to give in.
"The immigration conditions can be relaxed. This time, residents who have no criminal history, are not anti-Xia, and recognize that the artificial planet belongs exclusively to Xia can all become Xia citizens." Ji Andao said.
“You can have this.”
Just as the European and American bases were encouraging base residents to work together to oppose Xia, the latest immigration policy of the Beijing base came out.
This time there is no economic bottleneck, the only requirement is to recognize that the artificial planet is a policy that belongs exclusively to Xia Country, and almost all foreign residents are tempted.
As for joining Xia Country's nationality, Xia Country is currently the best developed base among all bases. Joining such a base would be something we would be eager to do, so how could we reject it?
After receiving this news, some shrewd foreign psychics simply packed up their luggage and secretly ran away under the pretext of going out to hunt zombies.
By the time the top brass at each base reacted, most of the base residents had already fled.
The top leaders of the base could no longer sit still and resorted to tough measures. Anyone who fled to Xia Country would be shot on the spot along with their family members once they were discovered, without the need to report or verify.
The original intention of the top brass of the base was to use this iron-blooded approach to intimidate the residents of the base who wanted to negotiate, but they did not expect that it would not only have the opposite effect, but also give some villains an opportunity to take advantage of it.
"Oh my God, my son didn't run away, he just went out to hunt zombies." A mother kept explaining her son's whereabouts to the psychic who came to question her.
"His father and I were both injured in the last zombie hunt. Now there is nothing to eat at home. If he doesn't go hunting zombies for food, our whole family will starve to death."
"You're just quibbling. I think he has clearly escaped to the Jing City Base. He is a traitor to the M Base. Your whole family knew about it but didn't report it, and tried to cover up for him. You all deserve to die."
"We didn't. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to monitor our house. We agreed when he left that no matter whether he could hunt zombies or get food, he would come back in three days to report that he was safe."
"He has been gone for two days. He will be back tomorrow at the latest. You just need to wait for one more day. If he doesn't come back tomorrow, you don't have to do anything. We are willing to end our lives."
"I think you are clearly stalling for time." The psychic didn't listen to the couple's explanation at all and directly attacked the couple.
The couple was unwilling to die like this, so they rose up to resist, but in the end they were outnumbered and killed.
The companion looked at the couple's bodies lying on the ground with their eyes wide open and said uneasily: "Captain, it's only one day. It doesn't matter if we wait a little longer."
The captain's eyes widened. "If their son really escaped to the Jingshi base and colluded with the people in the Jingshi base, come here tomorrow in a hovercraft and pick up their family and their neighbors. You will be able to take responsibility then."
The team members were trembling with fear, and she couldn't afford it.
Just at this time, the son who went out to hunt zombies came back. He actually hunted a high-level zombie and exchanged the zombie crystal core for enough water and food.
He happily rushed home, thinking that his parents were also waiting for him, but as soon as he reached the door, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
His foreboding feeling reached its peak when he saw the psychic in patrol uniform standing at the front door of their house.
"Mom and Dad!" The son rushed into the house like crazy, and what he ran into were the bodies of his parents lying in a pool of blood.
"What did you do to them? I just went out to hunt zombies to earn food. I didn't escape. Why did you kill them? I want to file a complaint. I want to file a complaint against you."
The captain raised his rifle and shot a bullet through the head of the last survivor of the family.
The team members couldn't bear to see this and said, "Captain, we killed someone by mistake. Why are you making the mistake even worse?"
"Otherwise, wait for him to file a complaint, and then we will be the ones to be punished. If any of you think this is cruel, just turn yourself in. I will definitely not stop you."
The team members were silent and no one was willing to surrender.
The captain turned around and curled his lips slightly. He knew of course that his son was just out hunting zombies.
He really wanted to kill their family. This family had offended him before, and he had never had a chance to take revenge. Now that he had this golden opportunity, what would happen if he took revenge?
Such unjust, false and wrongful convictions occurred in various bases, and many people died unjustly.
This caused the residents of the base to become even more panicked, and those who had no original plans to emigrate began to try to immigrate to the Beijing base.
