Woo.

The sky is high and the sun is far away.

The melodious train whistle sounded across the land.

With a thumping sound, a green-painted locomotive slowly crawled out from the shadow of the building and headed into the distance with its long tail.

"Give way and don't step on the grain I bought!"

"Train fast food, one for five o'clock. If you need it, please come to Car No. 8 to buy it."

"Do you have any brothers who want to play poker? Come over here and play together."

"There are still four tickets for the third section of the mountain range. Those who need to make up for their tickets should hurry up and go through the procedures!"

"."

In the carriage, different sounds came and went. Occasionally, there were shouts and curses from people passing by, bumping into and stepping on each other, making it very noisy.

From time to time, someone got annoyed by the noise and stood up angrily and yelled.

But sitting in the back row, watching these people coming and going, Ge Jianan only felt cold all over his body and his mind went blank.

When he received the task of submitting a petition from Somo, he was frightened on the spot.

Compared with the Tianyuan Territory, the hard power of the Dragon Phoenix Territory is indeed very weak, like an ant.

The permanent population is only a few thousand people, and the defense force is only a little over 300 people. In addition, the weapons are basic weapons purchased from other territories.

If it weren't for the supervision of the mutual non-attack agreement jointly issued by the three major territories.

I'm afraid that the Tianyuan Territory doesn't even need to send a team directly. It only needs a light missile to send everyone in the territory to the sky.

But this is a comparison between territories.

For ordinary people, even a small dragon and phoenix territory is still an insurmountable mountain.

A complete defense force with large-caliber rifles, bombs for throwing, and complete systems.

Just thinking about this, Ge Jian'an can feel an obvious sense of powerlessness from head to toe.

"The Heroes Association is just an organization established in a town in the Tianyuan Territory. What can we use to subvert the Dragon Phoenix Territory!"

"Even if Alliance Leader Su sends me dozens of people with guns, they will still be far from my opponent!!"

Ge Jian'an recalled his life of wandering around the wasteland over the years, constantly wandering between major territories.

There are not only people who try to subvert the territorial government, but there are indeed many.

There are cases where the higher-ups of the territory conspired to get rid of the lord and replace him with someone else following the Clothes Edict.

There are cases where brothers at the bottom of the hierarchy rose up to resist after being severely oppressed by their lords.

There are also some cases where the longan from outside comes from the red territory and directly picks peaches.

According to statistics compiled by some good people, regime changes occur in territories in the New World almost every day.

But what about the success rate of replacement?

0.13%

Even if you try it a hundred times, you may not succeed even once!

"Uncle, you are also going back to the Dragon Phoenix Territory, right? You don't have anything with you. You didn't make any money from the summer harvest in the Tianyuan Territory this time?"

While thinking, a slightly younger voice sounded in Ge Jianan's ears.

Turning around, I saw a skinny young man with bared teeth and dark skin, wearing only a small vest, sitting down next to him with a smile.

"Well, I'm from the Dragon and Phoenix Territory." With his mind in turmoil, Ge Jianan had no intention of chatting. He nodded coldly and looked out the window.

But what surprised him was that the young man was very familiar with it. Not only did he continue to talk, he even took out two dry and hard pancakes from the snakeskin bag he carried with him.

Keep one for yourself and pass one to Ge Jianan.

"Uncle, I've seen you before. You are Carpenter Ge, right?"

"Ge Dabao and I are good friends. He always praises me about how awesome you are."

A second ago, Ge Jian'an thought that there was either a fool or a gangster sitting next to him.

Sharing food with others rashly, who knows if there is any medicine in it.

But the next second, when he heard the words Ge Dabao, Ge Jianan's eyes moved slightly: "Do you know Dabao?"

"Yeah, my home is in the east end of the town. My mother and I live alone."

"When there is no work outside, I am in the construction team in the town. I have known Dabao for a long time."

"This time I said I would go out with him, but he said, Uncle Ge, you won't let him go, so I will go out alone to make money."

While secreting saliva to melt the dry and hard pancake in his mouth, he answered Ge Jianan's questions honestly.

Afraid that he would not believe it, the young man also gave several details to support his words.

"You and Dabao know each other, what's your name?"

"My name is Hou Yong"

"Hou Yong? Are you a little monkey?" Hearing this familiar name, Ge Jianan's tense face finally relaxed a lot.

When traveling in peacetime, you must always be vigilant to prevent being deceived.

Not to mention that in the chaotic apocalyptic wasteland, there are more liars here, and their methods are more cruel than in the civilized era.

If you accidentally hit the road, you may lose your money, or you may lose your life.

"So Uncle Ge, you know me." Hou Yong seemed extremely happy when he met an acquaintance: "I went to work in Wuya Mansion this time. Oh my, I am such an unlucky old man. I have only been working for two weeks and I didn't expect to meet someone.

Such a sudden big hailstorm caused all the work to be lost. I hid in that shelter for a few days and almost paid money to go in. It was a big loss!"

"You went to Wuya Mansion?" Ge Jianan's eyes flickered slightly.

There is a huge and "sparsely populated" Tianyuan Territory separated between the Dragon Phoenix Territory and Wuya Mansion.

Ninety percent of people would not choose to go far away from home and work in Wuya Prefecture, which is farther away and has a larger population.

"That's right, Uncle Ge, don't say anything yet."

"If our Dragon Phoenix Territory and Wuya Mansion hadn't reached a strategic cooperation agreement this time, and everyone traveling back and forth would be reimbursed for their round-trip tickets, I would have made no money at all, and my trip would have been in vain!"

Patting the bag containing grain on the ground, Hou Yong looked slightly embarrassed and touched the back of his head in embarrassment.

When he first chose a place to work, his first consideration was indeed the Tianyuan Territory.

After all, between the two, Tianyuan Territory is far superior to Wuya Mansion in terms of wages, distance, and reputation.

But the reason why he finally went to work in Wuya Mansion was really very simple.

He has sat and stood.

At that time, in order to make more money, he was busy working in the construction team in the territory the night before he got on the train, and did not go back to bed until three o'clock in the middle of the night.

I got up at six o'clock the next day and got on the train, and I didn't even come back to my senses.

The drive from Longhuang Territory to Tianyuan Territory took just over eight hours, and Hou Yong was able to stay awake for the first five hours.

After three hours, sleepiness set in and he couldn't hold on.

When he opened his eyes again and regained consciousness, the train had already traveled more than 200 kilometers out of Tianyuan territory and was soon approaching Wuya Mansion.

There was no way, the money in his pocket did not allow him to get off the bus at this time, so he paid for the ticket first and then sat back.

I had no choice but to push my way all the way to Wuya Mansion and start working.

"When did the strategic cooperation agreement happen?" Ge Jian'an didn't pay special attention to Hou Yong's dramatic life, but he was slightly surprised by the sudden agreement.

There is a feud between Wuya Mansion and Tianyuan Territory, and everyone knows about it.

As a small territory, the Dragon Phoenix Territory may be able to survive in this crack if it can remain neutral.

But if you actively choose to get involved and are used by Wuya Mansion to disgust Tianyuan Territory, the meaning will be completely different.

No matter how good-tempered the Tianyuan Territory is, once it is really angered.

"Maybe it was just after the disaster, right? Hey, Uncle Ge, you don't know?" Hou Yong's eyes shrank when he noticed that many people were looking at him, and he felt bad in his heart.

He thought that everyone would know about the cooperation agreement by now, but looking at the current situation, it seems that he is the only one who knows about it?

"I don't know the specifics, but I heard from them that between our territory and Wuya Prefecture, we can send each other's citizens to work there, and Wuya Prefecture will reimburse travel expenses to a certain extent. Isn't this a good thing?"

"Send each other?" Ge Jianan's heart skipped a beat, and Ge Jian'an quickly stretched out his hand and pinched Hou Yong under the table.

The latter trembled slightly and quickly stopped talking.

After a while, the noise and crowding nearby reappeared, and no one looked at the two of them again.

Ge Jianan then quietly lowered his head and lowered his voice as low as possible: "Did Wuya Mansion say when they would send the first wave of people to cross our territory?"

"As I said, on July 15th, which is still more than half a month away, the first group of people who will come over will help us build some disaster-resistant buildings, bring some low-cost basic materials, and it seems that they will also help us consolidate the defense of our territory.

, Reduce the number of unexpected events that may occur during special periods.”

"Will they send troops over?" Ge Jian'an's tone became more serious again, startling Hou Yong.

"Uncle Ge, how can I know this? But at this special time, wouldn't it be good for them to send troops here? Our Dragon and Phoenix Territory is not as big as those big territories. If there is a wandering lunatic organization, it will be a big trouble.

."

"It's okay, I'm just curious to ask." Realizing that he was indeed too nervous about this topic just now, and his intentions were extremely vague, Ge Jian'an's expression changed continuously, and he suppressed his shock.

Tianyuan territory is east to west, north to south and west.

The east side is close to the mountains, and the west side is close to the boundless sea.

It borders the two large territories of Wuya Mansion and the Dwarves of All Nations to the north, and connects dozens of small and medium-sized territories to the south as well as the entire outside of the New World.

Because of the endless wars for years, few outsiders pass by in the north.

Most of the caravans coming and going enter from the south and go all the way to Wuya Prefecture.
