MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 672 Steady in the top three

Although Instructor Cheng had completely changed his appearance at this time, with his messy chicken coop-like hair trimmed neatly and the stubble on his chin cleanly shaved, Zeng Bo recognized him at a glance, because Instructor Cheng gave Zeng The impression that Bo left was too deep. If it wasn't for what Instructor Cheng said that evening, Zeng Bo would still be living in the student dormitory of Nandu University.

   Colleague glanced at Zeng Bo and said in surprise, "You know him?"

  Zeng Bo nodded and explained: "Well, I know, you know the live-fire military training in colleges and universities across the country a while ago? I was still studying at Nandu University at that time, and this is my instructor."

"Hey, it turns out that you are a college student who was called to join the army. You are amazing, and you have a future ahead of me." He will soon surpass him, and the latter will come first.

Because the meaning of the four words called enlistment is completely different from that of enlistment. Those who enlisted in the army are conscripts with low allowances and poor treatment, and those who are called into the army are generally cadres or non-commissioned officers. It is impossible for a non-military-born college student to become a non-commissioned officer when he joins the army, but as long as he does not make mistakes, his promotion speed will definitely be much faster than that of a conscript.

"I have a bad future. My target score is very poor. The company commander opens a small stove for me every day. It is good luck not to be kicked out of the team." Zeng Bo smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand to Cheng Xu, and respectfully said: "Instructor Cheng, long time no see. ."

Cheng Xu obviously didn't recognize Zeng Bo when he first entered the door. It's no wonder that Cheng Instructor was in charge of training more than 100 students in two classes at the time, and Zeng Bo had nothing special except chatting with Cheng Xu for a while at dinner. Naturally, Cheng Xu was not impressed.

Zeng Bo is self-aware and has a first-class ability to observe words and expressions. He can see the confusion on Cheng's face at a glance, so Zeng Bo explained it clearly when he explained to his colleagues just now, not ignoring Cheng's impolite actions, but In this way, Instructor Cheng was reminded to avoid embarrassment to each other.

"Yeah, long time no see." Cheng Xu finally recalled who the young man in the military uniform was in front of him, and immediately stood up and shook Zeng Bo's hand tightly, "You kid? Haha, I was right at the time, I knew you were the most promising among your group of students, but you were the only one who clearly felt fear and had to overcome fear and practice hard, hey, you look so much more handsome in a military uniform!"

  Instructor Cheng's warm and sunny appearance is completely irrelevant to the decadent instructor. Zeng Bo was stunned for a while, thinking: Maybe time can really heal all wounds.

After    released his hand, Zeng Bo made a cup of tea in a disposable paper cup, brought it to Cheng Xu, and asked politely, "Instructor Cheng, why are you in Shanghai?"

"You're in the army now, and I'm still a commoner. Don't call me Instructor Cheng, call me Cheng Xu, or call me Brother Cheng..." Cheng Xu suddenly changed his face and waved his hand. , "Uh, no, you should still call me by my name."

Zeng Bo was tactful and thought about it a lot. He immediately thought of what Cheng Xu was taboo about, and smiled knowingly: "Brother Cheng, are you coming to Shanghai for tourism or business? Now the central government has issued a death order, and you must not get a stay permit. Leaving Shang Hai within two weeks, you should know that?"

   "Of course I know, hehe, I know earlier than you, and know more than you." Cheng Xu smiled nonchalantly, "I came to Shanghai for neither a tourist nor a business trip. I came to fight."

   Facing the doubtful eyes from his colleagues, Zeng Bo explained: "Brother Cheng used to be a corpse hunter in the Far River, and he led his team to participate in the defense of the Southern Capital. He has made great achievements in combat. His combat experience is much richer than ours."

"But..." Zeng Bo looked at Cheng Xu again and asked, "Brother Cheng, when you say that you came to fight, do you mean the magic tide? You don't want to participate in the war as a civilian, right? If you don't have enough weapons, you're going to die. In this case, I can only forcibly transfer you back to the location of your household registration. Besides, where are you going to fight? Hasn’t the central government already abandoned Shang Hai? Otherwise, why should you evacuate the whole country?”

"Abandon Shang Hai? Nonsense. You sit first, and I'll talk to you slowly." Cheng Xu pointed to the seat, as if he was the owner of the chat room, "How can evacuation from the whole territory and abandoning Shang Hai be the same thing? Do you think the evacuation work has only started recently? You are wrong. Since the tightening of the real estate transaction policy in Shanghai City three months ago, a large number of valuable assets have been secretly transferred, from enterprises to factories to precious metals in bank vaults. Most of it has already been moved."

   Zeng Bo was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at his colleague, and saw his face full of surprise, shock in his eyes, and more disbelief.

   "So, the real evacuation work started three months ago? Now what we are doing is just population evacuation, evacuating people?" Zeng Bo asked.

"Well, since it's the information that I can find out, it shouldn't be considered top secret. Anyway, it will be revealed sooner or later, so it's okay to tell you first." Cheng Xu smiled, "If you think about it carefully, you will know that the defense of Nandu is based on What makes it so beautiful? The army had already been deployed before those space cracks appeared in Nandu and Shangjing. After the monsters appeared, almost all the troops gave no-delay strikes, which means that there must be some means of predicting where the monsters will appear. , the specific principle is not clear, it may be detected by some instruments and data like the weather forecast. It is estimated that Shanghai was detected as a hardest hit area a few months ago, and, think about it, it was also predicted before the southern capital defense battle. There are monsters of the magic tide, so why not evacuate all the people of Nandu?"

"why?"

"Because the military has the confidence to protect the people of Nandu, it turns out that with the joint efforts of the Awakened, the Far Rescue Association and the military, the battle to defend Nandu has been successfully won with almost no casualties. Evacuate the whole territory? This is a super metropolis with a population of more than 20 million, and the economic losses and political impact caused by the evacuation of the entire city are more than ten times more serious than the evacuation of the South!"

   "Because... I'm not sure to protect the people this time? So I would rather suffer huge losses than evacuate the people to a safe area first?" Zeng Bo swallowed, but his mouth was even more dry.

   "Yes!" Cheng Xu nodded heavily, "So, the evacuation of the entire Shanghai does not mean that the fight is no more, on the contrary, it means that there will be an earth-shattering uphill battle in Shanghai."

   "As for the scale? It's hard to say anything else, but in all the wars since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has been firmly in the top three!"
