Chapter 196 Give Me a Chance (Second Update)
Before Lin Feiyin could come to her senses, she suddenly heard Qiu Hongsheng's malicious voice again: "What? Miss Lin, are you going to leave the safe zone with them?"
His words reminded Lin Feiyin, and she came back to her senses instantly. She hesitated for a moment, then sat down quickly. Before sitting down, she whispered to the person standing next to her: "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to protect you, and I will never let them drive you out of the safe zone."
After she finished speaking, she gave the man a soothing look and sat down with peace of mind, not noticing that the man's mouth twitched and he sneered with disdain.
Believe her? Think he's a fool?
The man thought with disdain, and then shouted: "General Qiu! General Song! General Li! I know I was wrong! I am willing to accept the new regulations! Give me another chance! I am willing to accept military training, please give me a chance! I really know I was wrong!"
His words reminded the other people standing there. They felt guilty and started shouting, saying that they knew they were wrong and hoped that the military would give them another chance.
Then, all the people who were about to be kicked out started shouting like this. At first, the voices were chaotic, but gradually, they became more uniform. They all admitted their mistakes in unison, and their expressions changed from initial panic and reluctance to earnestness.
If they admitted their mistakes deliberately in order to survive, their mood gradually changed after they said this, and there was sincerity in their expressions and voices.
They are really willing to receive training and go out to hunt zombies!
As soon as these people spoke, the people who were originally sitting also began to speak for them.
"Yeah! Just give them a chance!"
"Give them a chance!"
"Give them a chance!"
"Give them a chance!"
Then, those who were standing also became aware and said, "Yes! We know we were wrong! Please give us a chance!"
Gradually, all the sounds came together, deafening and rising straight into the sky!
They were not very strong, or they were actually in good physical condition, but they were afraid, so they didn't dare to go out. But at this moment, after they said what was in their hearts, they heard their own voices, and a sense of pride arose in their hearts.
Isn't it just killing zombies? Others can do it? Why can't they? We are all human beings, what are they afraid of?
Qiu Hongsheng did not speak, but General Song and General Li stepped forward at the same time. General Song asked, "Are you really willing to accept the new regulations of the safe zone? Accept military training, and then go out to hunt zombies?"
Everyone said in unison: "Yes! We do!"
General Song said, "Okay! Since you are willing, we will give you another chance! I hope you don't forget what you just said! Follow the instructions, receive training, and go out to hunt zombies!"
Everyone shouted in unison again: "Kill the zombies! Kill the zombies! Kill the zombies!"
General Li raised his hands, pressed them down lightly with his palms facing downwards: "Quiet!" Everyone quickly quieted down, and then he continued, "I hope you don't blame General Qiu. He just said that on purpose. It was actually a test for you to see what kind of character you have. He didn't really want to drive you out of the safe zone. But I still have to say that the situation is very serious now. There are more and more zombies wandering outside the safe zone. You should all know that the zombies attacked the city last night.
Although we have saved the safe zone this time, what about next time? What about the next time? We force you to serve in the military and receive military training, not for ourselves, but to give you the power to kill zombies and keep you alive as long as possible! Only when everyone can fight and kill zombies, can we keep the safe zone, kill all the zombies outside, and restore the peaceful and quiet life of the past!
Now tell me, do you want to be hungry all day, or do you want to feed yourself and your family? Do you want to live in uncertainty, live in confusion, numbness, or hold your destiny in your own hands? Do you want to live in this kind of fear all the time, or do you want to live in peace and tranquility, without the threat of death? Tell me! "
After hearing these words, everyone's faces gradually changed. Although they just said that they wanted to kill zombies, they were only supported by a sense of pride and determination. However, this alone is obviously not enough. We must completely change their mentality and plant firm beliefs and will in their hearts to completely change them, so that they can truly accept the cruel military training from the bottom of their hearts and go out to hunt zombies, instead of running away or even giving up because of the hardship and danger!
Now, after listening to General Li's words, they couldn't help but recall the peaceful days before the end of the world. The people here come from all walks of life. Some of them once lived a rich life, while others were at the bottom of society, working hard every day to make a living.
However, no matter how hard the days were, at least they had enough food and clothes, and a safe place to stay. They didn't have to worry about man-eating monsters rushing into the house and eating them up at any time, and they didn't have to go hungry all day.
In the past, they had all kinds of complaints about their lives. However, after they truly experienced the cruel end of the world, they suddenly discovered that the previous days were so happy!
And now, the only thought in their minds is to kill all the zombies outside and get life back on track!
Perhaps in the future, their mentality will change again, but at least at this moment, they all have firm beliefs and the goal of living!
The three generals were very satisfied with the result, so Qiu Hongsheng stood up and said, "Since everyone has understood, let me tell you one more thing. The conscription registration has begun. After the meeting, you can go to the mission hall to register and register your identity information. The training will start tomorrow. During the training, everyone who participates in the training will be able to get a portion of food. However, this food is not given away for free, it is an advance payment to you! The bill will be recorded on your ID card, and you will have to pay it back slowly when you participate in the mission."
Everyone quickly accepted this condition. They now understood that food was precious. They were very happy that the military was willing to pay them in advance, not to mention that they were unwilling to give it away for free! They were not able to eat enough every day, so they were naturally very happy to have food now.
The three generals were a little worried that someone would object, and they had even thought of a plan to deal with this situation. However, they did not expect that these people would accept it directly without any objection.
They secretly breathed a sigh of relief and started talking about another incident, which was that someone took advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble last night.
This time it was no longer Qiu Hongsheng who spoke, but General Li. He said, "Okay, everyone knows now that someone took advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos last night. Not only did they steal the supplies of meritorious people, they also tried to attack the army! Now, all the instigators are here. I hope everyone can remember what they did, and remember not to make the same mistake again! Your enemies are the zombies outside, not your compatriots! Anyone who dares to attack his compatriots will not be spared once discovered!"
Hearing this, all eyes were directed at the tied up prisoners. The prisoners here were not all the people, but only some of them. Thousands of people were arrested last night, some were thieves, and some were preparing to challenge the military and seize control of the safe zone.
The more important leaders are all here, and the rest have been sent outside the safe zone to build fortifications.
There had never been a large-scale zombie attack before. It was just scattered zombies running outside the safe zone, which was easy to deal with. In addition, everyone was busy looking for supplies in the city before, so only the protective wall was built. At that time, the top management did not know that the zombies would advance so quickly and their strength would be so terrifying. They just thought that having such a protective wall was enough.
But what happened last night was a wake-up call for everyone, making them realize that they must hurry up to build fortifications outside the safe zone! Otherwise, if zombies attack the city again, it will be too dangerous!
Therefore, the top management specially summoned a large number of people to build fortifications outside the safe zone, one to thicken the protective wall, and the other to dig deep pits outside the protective wall. All the excavated soil was used by earth-type ability users to thicken the protective wall, or to create earth spikes in the pit and set traps.
At the same time, a suspension bridge is installed outside the protective wall. The suspension bridge is usually retracted and close to the wall. Unless there is an emergency and you need to get out of the safe area, the suspension bridge will be lowered and placed over the trap to form a safe passage.
In the past, the entire safety zone had only one gate for entry and exit. Now there are four gates, and except for the road at the entrance, all other places have been dug into deep pits.
The swamp created by Fang Jintang before did not disappear, and the top leaders did not order people to fill it up. Instead, it was deliberately left there to be used as a "natural" trap.
Because more and more zombies appeared outside the safe zone, building fortifications outside naturally became a dangerous task. Fortunately, after all, it was outside the safe zone and there were special people protecting it, so safety was relatively guaranteed.
But not everyone is willing to do such a task.
Therefore, the prisoners caught last night were taken out directly and dispersed outside the safe zone, specifically responsible for digging pits. The people who dig pits will stay in the pits. Once they encounter danger, it is very difficult for them to escape, which can be said to be the most dangerous.
Originally, the remaining leaders were also to be taken out to work. But before taking them out, the top leaders intended to let the residents of the safe zone see it as a warning to others!
You can see it, the game here is psychological warfare~
