Chapter 196 People on a Boat
Seeing this, Di Si continued, "Uncle, didn't you say before that we are now in the same boat?"
"If we can't defend the Western Theater, I will be held accountable and lose my position as marshal. By then, the Qian family will have no one to rely on."
Qian Qing's eyes changed color.
"I didn't say I wouldn't send you more people."
"However, the Qian family does not have many mercenaries, and even fewer with high spiritual power levels. Even if I send all my mercenaries to the Fourth Army, it will probably be a drop in the bucket."
"It's better to have someone using it than no one using it." Di Si said immediately.
"My uncle sent me here, so I won't use him for nothing."
"Depending on their strengths, I can give them corresponding military ranks."
"Also, if the Qian family wants to come along, I have no objection."
"A ten-man mercenary team in exchange for a logistics quota."
"The young masters of the Qian family are here to do the logistics, and their lives will no longer be in danger."
Di Si's words touched Qian Qing's heart.
He was indeed planning to place members of the Qian family in the Fourth Army, but he was worried that something might happen to the people he sent again.
So many of his juniors had gotten into trouble before, and although he finally managed to appease everyone, he left everyone distrusting him and the Fourth Army.
And this distrust will not disappear in a short time.
Letting the Qian family take care of logistics is actually a good choice.
Security is the first priority. Second, it will not affect the Qian family’s plan to slowly infiltrate the Fourth Army.
"Okay. I'll discuss it with the other companies later and try to get more people for you." Qian Qing said.
"Thank you, uncle!" Di Si said excitedly.
Only after the video call ended did Di Si's face turn cold.
The two mercenary captains looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward and saluted Di Si.
"Marshal, the boss has a total of ten mercenary teams. If they can all come to support us, it will be a considerable force."
Di Si looked at the mercenary captain with a helpless expression.
"There are a total of ten mercenary teams. It would be a good thing if half of them can come." He said.
The two mercenary captains looked at each other and tried to comfort Di Si.
"Marshal, don't be so pessimistic. The boss knows the seriousness of the matter and will not sit idly by and watch the war on the front line."
"That's right. If he really doesn't care, I will find a way to contact people from other mercenary teams!" Suddenly, one of the mercenary team captains said.
After these words came out, Di Si and the other mercenary captain looked at him.
"Really?" Di Si looked at him hopefully.
The mercenary captain who spoke realized that he had said the wrong thing, but when he saw Di Si looking at him like that, he quickly suppressed his regret.
"certainly!"
"Every man has his share of responsibility for the fate of his country. If the Western Theater Command cannot be defended, countless people will suffer. I believe that if they knew the situation, they would definitely be willing to help."
"Besides, helping is not for nothing. There are so many high-level Zerg in the Zerg tide. After a battle, we can harvest a lot of high-level crystal cores."
The other mercenary captain glanced at him and nodded.
Risks and benefits coexist, but if you are strong enough, the benefits will far outweigh the risks.
If these people were afraid of death, they wouldn't be mercenaries.
"Okay! Thank you! With people like you who are loyal to the empire, what do we have to fear from the insect tide?!" Di Si's eyes were excited.
The two mercenary captains looked at each other and expressed their loyalty to Di Si.
They are not pure mercenaries now, and they are not even mercenaries anymore.
Because not long after they joined the army, they were incorporated into the Fourth Army.
During this period, they lived and ate with the soldiers of the Fourth Army. They went on missions together, trained together, ate together, chatted together, and joked together. They had become accustomed to life in the barracks.
In today's battle, the insect swarm attacked the border, and the marshal personally took part in the battle.
Rescue them and the people who rescued them.
A commander like the Marshal deserves their loyalty.
If Qian Qing knew all this, he would definitely regret allowing the mercenaries to join the army.
He thought that if he treated his mercenaries well enough, they would remain loyal to him.
But I don’t know how much influence the military has on people.
Coupled with Emperor Si's deliberate guidance, it would be strange if the mercenaries who have joined the army did not change their hearts.
After the insect-killing tide first broke out in the western theater, other theaters also followed suit.
Because all the major war zones were prepared, although the fighting was fierce, the losses were within controllable range.
At this moment, the Jin Group suddenly announced that it would purchase Zerg corpses in large quantities.
This made all the armies except the Fourth Army very happy.
The insect swarm broke out, the number of star beasts decreased, and they were worried that the results of the battle would be reduced.
Jin's acquisition behavior is like someone giving him a pillow when he's sleepy.
After announcing the purchase of Zerg corpses, Jin immediately started a live broadcast to inform the public that Zerg meat was edible and tasted better than star beasts.
At the same time, Su Yue also specifically pointed out that the energy contained in Zerg meat is higher and more beneficial to mental power.
When Di Si saw the news, he immediately lost his composure.
All the ingredients that the Qian family had bought from the Jin family before were now in his hands, so he had no shortage of ingredients during this period.
But now, Zerg meat, which is more beneficial to mental strength, has come out, but because of his "conflict" with Jin, it is difficult for the Fourth Army to purchase it in bulk.
If this continues, the speed at which the entire legion improves in strength will be lagged behind other army groups.
Anxious Di Si immediately found Qian Qing and asked him to help him buy Zerg meat.
The Qian family has been suppressed by the Jin family recently to the point where they can hardly raise their heads. The business of natural food ingredients has plummeted. Some of the family heads chose to sell off their stocks, while others chose to hold on.
Qian Qing is the type of person who is selling off his stock. He has already sold off nearly 70% of his stock, and he plans to keep the remaining 30% for his own use.
In addition, he also ordered a reduction in the planting of new vegetables this season.
Be prepared to stop immediately if you see something is wrong.
In short, Qian Qing’s condition was very bad, and the conditions of the other Qian family heads were also very bad.
Qian Qing received a video message from Di Si, asking him to help buy Zerg meat from the Jin family. Qian Qing was upset and had a headache.
Before that, he found a way to buy food ingredients worth 40 billion star coins from the Jin family.
Considering that after the Fourth Army, he would still need to purchase more food for the Jin family, he thought about buying some more in batches.
As a result, Jin didn't know if she had noticed his intention, but blocked the accounts he used to buy ingredients.
Now, although he still has some accounts that can be used to purchase goods, he dare not purchase in large quantities, for fear that these accounts will also be blocked.
If you can't buy it directly from Jin's, you can only buy it from wholesalers at a higher price. The cost is higher.
"Uncle, don't forget that we are in the same boat." Di Si said when he saw Qian Qing's unhappy look.
