Eye of the Wasteland

Chapter 283
The piercing sirens sounded from the city gates in the inner city, and soon gradually echoed around all the city gates in the inner city.

Many guard soldiers were quickly assembled, and then hurriedly boarded armed jeeps to reinforce each city gate.

When they boarded the city gate one after another under the leadership of the captain, they found that a black crowd had already gathered on the street outside the city gate in the inner city.

Countless residents of the outer city and shanty towns stood on the streets, each holding a variety of old-fashioned firearms, kitchen knives, and sticks.

Although the city walls in the inner city of Fuyuan City were also tall and strong, and the city walls did not lack facilities such as heavy machine guns and artillery, all the guard soldiers still looked nervous.

At this moment, many soldiers of the guard army were trembling slightly in the icy cold wind, and many timid ones even started to chatter slightly with their teeth.

They have never seen such a shocking scene, and they have never encountered such a thing, let alone solved it.

Looking at the city gates of the inner city in the distance on the streets where the cold wind was also blowing, countless people began to shout again.

"Drive away the wasteland nobles, Fuyuan City belongs to us."

"Everyone can eat, don't starve to death in winter."

"The inner city doesn't deserve to exist and all people deserve the same fair life."

The sky-shattering roar sounded neatly on the street, and then it was uploaded towards the city wall of the inner city along the icy cold wind.

The sound in the howling wind made everyone on the city wall very nervous, and even a captain of the guard army raised his hand in the cold wind to wipe the cold sweat off his head.

The cold and oppressive atmosphere made him feel short of breath, so he hurriedly walked towards the tower beside him.

In the tower, the equally nervous communicator was maintaining real-time communication with the City Lord's Mansion by radio.

After entering the tower, the captain of the guard army asked the messenger: "How is it, what does the city lord's mansion say?"

The communications soldier heard the guard's captain's question, so he hurriedly replied: "The city lord's mansion is just asking us to be on guard temporarily, and don't try to provoke the assembled people."

Hearing the answer from the communications soldier, the guard commander took a deep breath to try to calm down his confused mood.

Half an hour ago, the City Lord's Mansion had repeatedly warned them with such words, but after half an hour passed, there was no news from the City Lord's Mansion.

Damn it, if you continue to delay like this, something big will happen sooner or later!
Thinking of this, the captain of the guard army was suddenly taken aback, because he seemed to have thought of a very terrible thing.

That is... the City Lord's Mansion is not delaying time, but they may also be helpless in such a situation.

He frowned suddenly, and the captain of the guard suddenly felt a more turbulent chill filling his body.

Something big is going to happen, something big is going to happen... really big thing is going to happen.

Everyone in the City Lord's Mansion knew about the massive protests in the outer city, and the news that the Wasteland Rangers and Wasteland Fist had organized countless shacks and people in the outer city that might lead to rebellion.

It's just that when they were gathered in the conference room, everyone involuntarily kept silent, and only used the corner of their eyes to observe the expressions and movements of other people from time to time.

Seeing that no one else showed any obvious behavior, most people looked at Yang Cheng who was sitting on Feng Wenyan's left intentionally or unintentionally.

Yang Cheng in the conference room at the moment is the one who least conceals his emotions among all the people present.

Anger, resentment, ruthlessness and other negative expressions all surfaced on his face without any concealment, and made his whole body exude an aura that no strangers should enter.

The repressed silence was finally broken by Feng Wenyan: "For the current situation, everyone still expresses their own views."

"The longer we drag on, the more violent the people in the shanty town and the outer city will be. I think we don't have much time left."

"Fortunately, Wasteland Ranger and Wasteland Fist haven't sent them bullets yet, and things haven't reached the last step that needs to be done with real swords and guns."

"Come on, everyone, stop pretending to be deaf and dumb. Even if you don't think about Fuyuan City, you must always think about yourself."

Feng Wenyan's words immediately caused everyone present to look at each other again, and the expressions on many people's faces were very exciting.

But soon, a middle-aged man said: "We must now think about what to do to appease public anger."

Another middle-aged woman also said in a deep voice: "We can now consider negotiating with Wasteland Ranger and Wasteland Fist."

"Since they agitated the people in the shanty town and the outer city, and they haven't distributed ammunition to those people, it proves that they also want to negotiate with us."

However, some people quickly raised objections: "No, how can we negotiate with these traitors? Doesn't this mean that they have fueled the arrogance of these guys?"

Moreover, this objection was quickly recognized by some people.

"These homeless people can't believe that they have only been in Fuyuan City for a long time, and they have caused such a big disturbance."

"If this matter is compromised, I don't know what trouble it will cause in the future."

"Let's talk, how do we talk to them? They didn't say they were willing to listen to City Lord Feng. I think there may be room for maneuver when City Lord Feng comes forward to mediate."

"I think those shops can resume their trade with Wasteland Ranger and Wasteland Fist first, and ease the conflict between the two parties first, and the future can depend on the situation."

Hearing the slightly noisy discussion of the people present, Feng Wenyan smiled and turned his head to look at Yang Cheng who was sitting there silently with a sullen face.

"Vice City Master Yang, everyone is expressing their opinions, don't you have anything to say?"

Seeing Feng Wenyan looking at him, Yang Cheng slowly raised his head to meet his gaze.

Then, he turned to Feng Wenyan and asked, "City Master Feng, what do you want me to say?"

Feng Wenyan replied with a smile: "Things like Wasteland Ranger and Wasteland Fist are ultimately caused by the conflict between Zhiyuan and Wu Yunhao."

"Besides, after this incident, you instructed those shops not to do business with Wasteland Ranger and Wasteland Fist, which further intensified the conflict."

"Then, Wu Yunhao and his side simply broke the boat and directly incited the people in the shanty town and the outer city to protest. Now there is even a risk of rebellion."

"Don't you have anything to say about this series of things?"
