The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 53 A Strange Mission

Li Meng took the helmet handed over by Ma Yuzhen and put it on his head.

In silence, Li Meng strode out of the tent.

When Li Meng opened the door curtain and walked out of the tent, Chen Tianyou had been waiting outside for a long time.

Li Meng said: "Let's go..."

Without saying anything more, Chen Tianyou stepped aside and followed Li Meng, walking towards the entrance and exit of the subway station.

Behind the two of them, the imperial archers lined up in front of the tent moved silently, four people in a row, followed closely behind, and lined up.

Looking back at the soldiers following behind him, Chen Tianyou's eyes flashed with curiosity.

These people are very unusual, and their every move gives people a sense of well-trained...

Thinking of this, Chen Tianyou quickly stepped forward and came to Li Meng's side. As he walked, he said: "My lord, did you sleep well last night?"

With a calm expression on his face, Li Meng said calmly: "She is pregnant..."

After a moment of shock, Chen Tianyou reacted and smiled bitterly: "My lord, I don't know this, Sun Gaowu never told me..."

"Sun Gaowu?"

With only surprise in his eyes, Li Meng asked: "What is the relationship between Ma Yuzhen and Sun Gaowu?"

Slightly lowering his head, Chen Tianyou said: "Ma Yuzhen is Sun Gaowu's wife..."

Hearing this, Li Meng frowned slightly in his helmet...

Ma Yuzhen is actually Sun Gaowu's wife?

Glancing at Chen Tianyou beside him, Li Meng said calmly: "Your loyalty is commendable, but don't do this kind of thing in the future. I am the governor, not a local tyrant. Since I am in charge of this place, I must follow my rules. I will restore order and establish laws here..."

Slightly bowing his head, Chen Tianyou said: "Sun Gaowu can become the lord of Yingjiang Shelter for a reason. He may not be smart enough, but he is loyal enough. Although he is not a good person, he is not a big evil person. The governor wants to control the shelter completely. He is the fastest shortcut. Otherwise, the shelter seems calm now, but it will definitely cause chaos over time..."

Li Meng did not refute Chen Tianyou's words.

Yingjiang Shelter is very large, with a population of nearly 10,000, which is not comparable to Qing'an Shelter.

It may be possible to rule here by force, but it is absolutely impossible with only the current 100 imperial archers.

"So you let her wife warm my bed? If I really want to kill him and don't want to use him, everything you do will be useless..."

Smiling slightly, Chen Tianyou said: "Since the adults have said this, I feel relieved..."

"..."

There are really many smart people. As expected, those who can hold power in this era are not fools, and they are very thoughtful...

"Here, Chen Tianyou is here, and those people..."

As Li Meng and Chen Tianyou arrived with the army, the noisy crowd in the passage suddenly quieted down.

With the sound of footsteps, Li Meng led the army to move forward through the road cleared by the crowd and stepped onto the stairs to leave the shelter...

"Let's go, let's go..."

Seeing this, some people in the crowd shouted and organized the team to set off.

When Li Meng led the army out of the shelter, the sky outside was completely bright...

Although the sky and the earth were still dark and the cold wind was howling, the dark night had gone.

A team of thousands of people poured out from the exit of the subway station, and soon, a long black dragon formed on the snow.

On the snow, Li Meng and Chen Tianyou walked at the front of the team, and the army guarded on both sides.

As they walked, Li Meng said: "The task of leading the team this time can be handed over to others. I hope you can count the population of the shelter as soon as possible. Although three days are enough, you don't have much time to waste..."

Chen Tianyou bowed his head slightly to Li Meng's words, and said: "Don't worry, sir. As Sun Gaowu's assistant, I have managed the big and small things of the shelter over the years. Naturally, I can't do it alone. I have my own team and my own management system. I just need to issue orders to the people below, and they will naturally do it. Within three days, the population details of the shelter will naturally be handed over to you..."

Hearing this, Li Meng said no more and looked forward.

There are nearly 10,000 people in Yingjiang Shelter, and Chen Tianyou's management system team must be not small.

At present, Li Meng only needs the population of Yingjiang Shelter, and does not intend to change the management system of Yingjiang Shelter now. If he does it by force, it will only cause Yingjiang Shelter to fall into chaos.

Yingjiang Shelter is not Qing'an Shelter. The population scale of the two is very different. We can't mess around.

Even if we want to change the system, we have to integrate the current system into the new system. We can't be impatient, we have to do it bit by bit.

On the road between the buildings, a huge team moved slowly in the snow. Looking from the sky to the ground, it was like a group of ants, a dark mass, covering hundreds of meters of the road...

The Jianghuai Canal is not far from Yingjie Shelter. It's just over an hour away. In front of it is a vast snowfield. The canal is here...

"Ten people in a group, get to work, hurry up, everyone go to the river to pile snow..."

Although someone had told them what to do last night, at this moment, the task of piling snow still made everyone feel a little puzzled. What's the point?

Although there were doubts in their hearts, they still had to do what they had to do.

Under the scolding of Chen Tianyou's men, the huge crowd gradually poured into the river and dispersed.

Piling snow is not a difficult task, so let's pile it...

As the team poured into the river, more than a thousand people, more than a hundred groups of people, spread over hundreds of meters around the river, began to pile up snow.

For a moment, snowflakes danced on the river, figures surged, and everyone worked in silence, and the scene looked quite spectacular.

Chen Tianyou also joined the crowd on the river to supervise.

"Press it tighter, no less than three meters high and three meters wide, so loose, more than two meters will collapse..."

"Yes, yes, that's it, pat it and press the snow tightly..."

Although Chen Tianyou also felt a little puzzled about the task of piling snow, since he had come here, he had to do his best.

Looking at Chen Tianyou who was directing everyone to pile snow in the crowd, Li Meng turned and joined the army lined up on the shore.

Li Meng stopped when he was blocked by the iron body of the imperial archer behind him.

With a thought, Li Meng opened the item page...

"Exchange for 5 landmark sensor sticks, -2500 resource points, -10 iron resources, -5 copper resources, -5 sand resources, -5 silver resources, -5 gold resources, -5 titanium resources, wormhole open, light transmission start, countdown: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..."

As 2020's words fell, a white light emerged on the snow under Li Meng's feet. When the light dissipated, five landmark sensor sticks suddenly appeared in the snow.

"Each group of five people, each group takes a landmark sensor stick, and spreads out with Qing'an Shelter as the center. When the signal is interrupted, walk three kilometers forward and put down the landmark sensor stick. Go, and return directly to Qing'an Shelter after completing the task..."
