Eye of the Wasteland

Chapter 226 The Homeless Stronghold in Winter (Part [-])
Hearing Cao Chengan's words, Wu Yunhao and Chen Xiaojia looked at each other, but neither of them said much.

Seeing this scene, Cao Chengan continued: "I think you already know the news about the homeless strongholds."

"This time the inner city has thrown us a mess and we've had to deal with it to the best of our ability."

"Based on the current situation, we only have four strongholds that can be as self-sufficient as the Anze stronghold."

"Twelve remaining strongholds are at risk of casualties, and another [-] strongholds are at risk of mass casualties."

"The most important thing is that we still have five strongholds that are at risk of freezing and starving to death."

"The situation in Fuyuan City, I also heard from some wasteland rangers."

"The reason why those forces in the inner city are willing to give up the homeless stronghold they control is to make us look ugly this winter."

"If there is really a problem with the homeless stronghold under our control, they and the forces under their command will definitely publicize it in Fuyuan City."

"If these things get out, it will be very bad for the reputation of our Wasteland Ranger and Wasteland Fist."

Hearing that Cao Chengan directly analyzed a series of problems that Wasteland Ranger is facing now, Chen Xiaojia asked with a smile: "Then I think since you know these problems, you should have thought of a solution, right?"

Cao Chengan took a look at Wu Yunhao who was watching him silently, and replied with a smile: "Yes, it's just... these are just my personal thoughts and speculations..."

Seeing Cao Chengan's slightly melancholy appearance, Wu Yunhao said, "Here are all our own people, there is nothing hard to say."

With Wu Yunhao's affirmation, Cao Chengan nodded lightly before replying: "I think... we can consider giving up those small or even some unqualified strongholds."

"Transfer the food, personnel and all supplies in those abandoned strongholds to places with potential such as Anze stronghold."

"In this way, we will be able to centrally deploy manpower and materials to re-plan and build these strongholds, so that they can develop like Xinshan Village."

"Also, this can give up the need to mobilize many Wasteland Fist teams to disperse to those unnecessary strongholds, thus saving a lot of personnel mobilization and material loss."

Cao Chengan's plan sounds like the best way to solve the plight of these homeless strongholds.

Just thinking about it briefly, Wu Yunhao and Chen Xiaojia discovered many problems in this plan.

Therefore, Chen Xiaojia took the lead and asked Cao Chengan: "Although this plan sounds feasible, it is very difficult to implement."

"If we let those homeless people leave their strongholds now, it is likely to be opposed by those homeless people."

"Not to mention that these people are unwilling to leave the stronghold where they live, even if they are willing to go to other strongholds, will the homeless people in other strongholds welcome them?"

"The situation in the wasteland era has created suspicion and vigilance among the homeless. Even if the two parties live under the same roof, whether they can coexist harmoniously is a huge problem."

"If these vagrants are placed together rashly and forcibly, as long as someone with a heart instigates it, large-scale hostility or even internal strife is likely to occur."

Wu Yunhao also frowned and nodded, but then he said: "However, this plan is not impossible."

"Although it is difficult to implement, as with many things, the greater the risk, the greater the reward."

"Just like how we accepted the nearby Cangyan Gang and the homeless team in Xinshan Village, once it is done, it will really be of great benefit to the wasteland rangers."

"Now the development momentum of the Xinshan Village base is obvious to all. As long as Xinshan Village itself does not encounter large-scale attacks, it is not impossible for the entire base to become a small town."

"If we can have a few more such strongholds under our command, I'm afraid that the line from Xinshan Village to Fuyuan City can be regarded as the sphere of influence of our Wasteland Rangers."

After listening to Wu Yunhao's words, Cao Chengan smiled and said to Chen Xiaojia: "Captain, Angkor is right, what he said is also what I want to say."

Seeing that Chen Xiaojia and Cao Chengan were full of confidence in this plan, Chen Xiaojia continued to ask: "In this case, what do you two plan to do?"

"There are nothing more than two methods before us. One is to try our best to persuade those homeless people to move here, and we will help."

"There is another kind of trouble, that is, we forcibly force those homeless people to move."

"With the strength of Fist of the Wasteland, the second method is indeed possible, but it may suffer a lot of abuse and notoriety."

"And we forced these vagrants to move here, fearing that the people in these strongholds themselves would raise objections."

"I'm afraid the first snow will come soon. Before we make such a big deal, we'd better consider the impact."

What Chen Xiaojia said caused Wu Yunhao to be silent for a moment, and then he said to Cao Chengan who was at the side: "In this case, then let the four leaders contact the people in the stronghold who can talk."

"We have to eat one bite at a time, and we have to do things one by one. Let's first listen to the opinions of everyone in Anze's stronghold on the migration of other homeless people from outside, and then make a judgment on this matter."

Nodding to Wu Yunhao, Cao Chengan quickly turned around and walked towards the four Anze strongholds waiting not far away.

When Cao Chengan gave Wu Yunhao's order to the four bosses, Chen Xiaojia asked Wu Yunhao, "Are you sure if you treat them like this, they will agree to your plan?"

Wu Yunhao smiled and replied to Chen Xiaojia: "Even if they don't agree, on behalf of us Wasteland Rangers, we must first show our attitude."

"We've only just taken over here, and it's not a good start if we give in to them as soon as we come in, or if we just come in and the two sides are at loggerheads."

"We need to let them understand that we are different from the guards under the command of the big powers in the inner city."

"We will respect them, but on the premise that they respect us, we will also give them the best life possible."

"A carrot in one hand and a big stick in the other. The reason why such a strategy has been tried and tested is because it recognizes human nature."

"If Wasteland Ranger really wants to be able to compete with the big forces in the inner city of Fuyuan City in the future, this time is a hurdle we must pass."
