After lunch, to the astonishment of Lin Lele and Qiao Meng, Chen Yu drove a Mengjiang armored snow sled out from a nearby mountain gully.
Then, the car carrying the two headed towards Datong Town, which was in the morning.
This small town, which he had just liberated, became the first stop for him to mobilize his forces.
Ten minutes later, a gentle yet authoritative female voice resounded throughout Datong Town.
"Attention residents of Datong Town! Sun Dabiao and his gang have been executed. From today onwards, Datong Town has been liberated! Please inform each other."
"At the same time, as a public welfare team for disaster relief, we are issuing a recruitment notice. As long as you can join our team and complete the tasks, each person can receive 2 kilograms of high-quality rice every day. If you do well in completing the tasks, there will be additional rewards! Those who are interested in participating, please come to the town center square to register."
After saying that, Qiao Meng looked at Chen Yu and asked softly, "Mr. Chen Yu, is this alright?"
“Very good, continue.” Chen Yu nodded.
Having received Chen Yu's approval, Qiao Meng continued shouting.
"Sir, I just don't understand. Aren't we the 'Cold Relief Militia Corps'? Why not use such a good identity and instead use this 'public welfare team'?" Lin Lele couldn't help but complain.
"What organization does Sun Dabiao claim to be?" Chen Yu asked casually.
"Joint defense brigade!" Lin Lele blurted out.
"Then, who appointed them?" Chen Yu continued to ask.
"Official?" Lin Lele asked uncertainly.
“That’s it. The residents of this town are already suffering greatly from the persecution of that so-called ‘joint defense brigade.’ If we were to use the name of the ‘anti-cold disaster relief militia’ again, guess what would happen?” Chen Yu asked rhetorically.
“They will be afraid, they will hesitate, and they might even mistake us for another group that has come to persecute them,” Lin Lele nodded, her eyes shining with understanding and admiration for Chen Yu’s strategy. “After all, Sun Dabiao and his gang have committed numerous atrocities under the guise of official authority, which has instilled a deep fear and distrust among the residents of this area towards any organization with ‘official’ or ‘military’ affiliations. Our appearance as a ‘public welfare team’ will not only dispel their wariness but also win their trust and support more quickly.”
"Hmm, at least you have some brains." Chen Yu nodded.
…………
An hour later, looking at the still empty Datong Central Square, Chen Yu couldn't help but frown.
Are all the residents of Datong Town this rich? Faced with such a "high salary" recruitment offer, not a single person is tempted?
But that doesn't make sense either!
According to his visit that morning, the residents of this small town had long been exploited by Sun Dabiao and his gang, and there was no way they would have much surplus food left.
Chen Yu frowned, his gaze sweeping back and forth across the empty square as he pondered to himself.
In his mind, the conditions he offered were an irresistible temptation for the residents of Datong Town who were suffering from hunger and cold.
However, the scene before them was quite different from what they had expected.
Seeing this, Qiao Meng stopped shouting. She hesitated for a moment and said to Chen Yu, "Mr. Chen Yu, why don't we reveal our true identities? Perhaps the identity of 'Anti-Cold Disaster Relief Militia' will gain the trust of the disaster victims more."
"Impossible. The officer just said that Sun Dabiao has already overused the 'official' title. We're still using the 'militia' identity. We're lucky if they don't attack us," Lin Lele said confidently.
Faced with Lin Lele's questioning, Qiao Meng did not compromise. She shook her head and said, "I don't think so."
Faced with this opportunity to suppress Qiao Meng, Lin Lele showed no mercy: "You call yourself a reporter? I can't believe you're so stupid. You can't even understand such basic human nature. You're really stubborn!"
Although Chen Yu also felt that Qiao Meng was too naive, in order to save face for Qiao Meng, he still looked at her with a curious expression, as if he wanted to hear her continue.
“It is precisely because of my experience as a journalist that I know how much the people of our Great Xia trust the government and the army, and how skeptical they are of so-called ‘public welfare organizations,’ especially in such chaotic times. Moreover, since we have already wiped out Sun Dabiao and his gang, it has already shown that we are not with Sun Dabiao and his gang, so how can we be confused?” Qiao Meng said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu smiled wryly and shook his head. This Qiao Meng is still too young. You have to know that people's hearts can change with the environment, especially in this life-or-death situation.
However, seeing Qiao Meng's confident expression, Chen Yu knew that he couldn't reason with her.
Seeing that he couldn't mobilize the residents of Datong Town, Chen Yu decided to give up on the place and let Qiao Meng try out her own ideas, giving her a vivid lesson in reality.
So he smiled and said to Qiao Meng, "Alright, let's try it again according to your idea."
As he spoke, he took out paper and pen, preparing to write his message on them.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Meng whispered, "Mr. Chen Yu, how about letting me write the article?"
Chen Yu was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then laughed and said, "Hehe, I forgot that you're a reporter, Xiao Qiao. Alright, then I'll leave this to you."
As he spoke, he handed the paper and pen to Qiao Meng.
Qiao Meng took the paper and pen and quickly wrote a new recruitment notice. Her handwriting was neat and strong, which contrasted sharply with Chen Yu's slightly messy handwriting.
After finishing writing, Qiao Meng carefully checked it and then handed it to Chen Yu, wanting to get his opinion.
Chen Yu waved his hand, indicating that Qiao Meng could handle it.
Immediately, Qiao Meng's clear and powerful voice rang out again over the town: "Dear residents, this is the officially authorized 'Anti-Cold Relief Militia Group.' We have now determined that Sun Dabiao and his gang of traitors are spies infiltrated by foreign forces. They used the guise of official authority to commit all sorts of oppression and plunder. We, the 'Anti-Cold Relief Militia Group,' as guardians of justice and peace, have completely eliminated these evildoers and restored a clear sky to Datong Town."
We know that everyone is going through a tough time under this extreme cold disaster and urgently needs help.
However, due to the natural disaster, our militia has limited supplies and is unable to save everyone. I am deeply sorry for this!
However, although natural disasters can destroy our homes, they cannot destroy our indomitable spirit!
As long as we are united, there is nothing in this world that we cannot overcome!
In order to jointly combat the severe cold and rebuild our homes, we urgently need more like-minded friends to join us, work together, and overcome these difficult times.
We need to find more supplies to support the families who need help the most!
At the same time, we promise that the families of members who join our team will receive special care and priority assistance!
