Tomorrow's Ark, the journey of hardcore and ruthless people

"That's right, the purified source stone. Who dares to knock the ore with so many impurities? We are not afraid of stomach bleeding. In fact, we mainly use the source stone powder to add to the coffee, and the refreshing effect is first-rate. Now we just knock it directly... Disease? Hey, I forgot about that stuff. It's nothing serious, it's our Holy Terra's Human Immunity Origin Disease."

The people on Terra are suffering from ori disease caused by the Originium. Ore disease is an old problem that everyone knows about, regardless of race or nationality, and is a headache and worry for everyone.These "human beings of Holy Terra" actually have their own immunity source stone, which naturally makes this guerrilla group full of infected people silenced and broken... Ahem, there is hope.

And the box of injections left by Command quickly stunned Patriot and his little friends-one injection was effective on the spot, and the origin stone crystals on the surface of the mild disease fell off on the spot on the spot; When it rises, the effect is almost equal to bringing the dead back to life.The efficiency makes the guerrillas attach great importance to this unknown force.

Of course, if these were the only things available, Commander would probably be left with nothing.As a force that can get along relatively well in the anarchic jungle society of the northwest tundra, the Patriot guerrillas have relatively strong moral integrity and have not yet penetrated the bottom line, so they will not kill people and buy goods, but they are still highly realistic.

If Comand only came to discuss cooperation with a bunch of advanced weapons and equipment and other materials, the guerrillas would be more likely to swear "there is only one answer, and I will be loyal to you" on the spot than breaking their swords on their legs. When they opened their mouths to beg for things, they were full of tears and full of emotion, and free compliments were given away basket after basket; as for other things, sorry, the Infected Shield guerrillas are an independent armed force.Make decisions on various major issues?That would only make people stand aside very politely...

However, the key is this "but".

When Comand first appeared on the stage, there was a row of space fighters standing behind him.

Facts have proved that "big is better" is an undeniable truth in the aesthetics of Gears of War.Facing the average height to stabilize themselves, the swords on their bodies are about the same height as ordinary people, and everyone is as big and strong as a captain. The shield guards stood in a few rows to avoid being overwhelmed , but the effort seemed futile.

As for Frost Star and the Snow Monster team... Everyone can only draw circles behind, muttering "It's amazing to be tall, isn't it?"

After witnessing the opponent's use of helicopters, tanks and power armor laser gun infantry to violently blast into the mobile mine to liberate the slave workers, the guerrillas had a heated debate on the issue of cooperation, fully exchanged opinions, and finally chose to join the "Northwest Tundra Society" Problem Workshop".Then the patriot and his soldiers couldn't believe their eyes when they saw the brightly lit new camp in the northwest tundra.

The former imperial combat hero, former guerrilla leader, and current member of the Central Executive Committee of the Integration Movement, "Patriot" Bozokasti, was standing on the shooting training ground of the "Training Center" in the main camp of the Integration Movement, looking at the people queuing up to return their guns. warriors.

The Patriots never doubted that the 113th could bring about a new world.

Bodrocasti "The Patriot" was once a fighting hero of the Ursus Imperial Army.However, the double negative labels of aliens and infected people stopped his rank as captain.After the death of his wife, the current emperor's policy against the infected allowed him to witness his beloved son's death for the infected when he suppressed the uprising of the infected.Therefore, he led the shield guards to rebel against the Ursus army, fought for the infected, and joined his subordinates in guerrilla warfare in the northwestern tundra of Ursus, specifically punishing the Ursas who killed the infected.At this time, he rescued Frost Star, a small infected slave worker who was about to be cleaned up in a certain mine.

The long and hard life and fighting, combined with the attack of ore disease, seriously affected his health.When the doctors of the 113th Division of the People's Federation of Extraterrestrial Corps examined him, they were horrified to find that under the armor that never took off, the flesh, the armor and the origin stone had almost grown together.

After a long-term injection of anti-Originium serum, Bozhuo Kasti underwent a major operation: he was severely eroded by the Originium, and the irreversibly damaged bones were replaced by artificial bones cultivated and strengthened according to his somatic cell clones; unbearable Part of the heavy-duty organs were replaced by artificial organs, and other slightly damaged and unhealthy organs were also repaired and enhanced-no doubt, even part of the technology of the Star Warrior transformation surgery was used.

After being soaked in the culture fluid of the medical cabin for hundreds of hours, Bozhuo Casti stood up by himself without the life support system.

It was a miracle.

But what is even more unbelievable than the miracles is that these "ancestors" immediately pulled up the kneeling converts, and then began to teach "The Technical Principles, Functional Processes and Uses of "Miracles".

At first, the guerrillas were skeptical about the social science theories and organizational methods taught by the 113th Division-not because they were too old-fashioned, but because these things had never been seen before.When the soldiers of the former Ursus Imperial Army used exaggerated rhetoric to ask: "Will the 'integration movement' control even a single gun in the future army?", Comand actually answered very seriously: "Of course!"

But everyone is very satisfied with other things supported by the 113th Division, from uniforms to camping equipment, from compressed food to accommodation, from radios to submachine guns - especially firearms.

Patriots first saw gunpowder weapons during the Battle of the Four Emperors.The Gallic army at that time, as well as the Ursus, Victoria and Letania armies of the anti-Gaul alliance, did not take those "just a joke" weapons seriously.Front loading, smoothbore, flintlock, rate of fire three rounds per minute, range no more than 1 meters, misfire rate fluctuates between 100% and 40.00%.Honestly, like a toy. (PS1)

Before the Lovely Country could recover, those muskets had leapt from "the time of a certain Dwarf himself to the time of Dwarf III" (Commander's description).The new "Berdan" rifle developed to the rear-loading rifle has more than three times the range and rate of fire of the front-loading smoothbore gun, and the traditional crossbow, which has begun to show signs of decline, has been completely overwhelmed.

As for those shiny new crossbows, such as the electromagnetic acceleration crossbow powered by origin stone, or the crossbow that can fire spell balls, there are various problems: the former is a sophisticated electrical device, from cost to reliability to serviceability Let the rear and the front line live in Bengbu together; the latter is similar to Lateran's blunderbuss, which has high requirements on the user's Originium skills. Once the output is not "stable and delicate", it will immediately strike or even explode in the hand.

The musket is different from them all.

It is simple to manufacture, only needs wood, steel and gunpowder, and will never seize precious strategic materials; it is reliable in action, and its mechanical structure is far rougher than the originium circuit; it is easy to operate, and it is impossible to spell the word "originium technology" The illiterate can learn to load and fire in one day, and the firepower it shoots is no worse than that of a sharpshooter; its performance is not weak, the projectile has a lower muzzle velocity than a crossbow bolt, its trajectory is straight, and its power is enough to penetrate all kinds of armor that is far scarcer than itself.In fact, the less skilled the shooter is, the more practical the gun is than the crossbow.

Therefore, although many soldiers in the armed forces of various countries still use bows and crossbows to achieve special killing effects, although muskets are still unsatisfactory in many aspects of performance, even though the halo men of Lateran, from ordinary believers to religious cavalry The use of "guns" was so tiring that I stuck my tongue out - muskets were suddenly popular all over Terra, becoming the most common weapon replacing swords and crossbows.

It is true that the strong can do all kinds of unimaginable operations, but after all, they cannot solve everything alone.The weapons and armor they use, the exquisite dishes they eat, and everything necessary to exert their terrifying power cannot be separated from the "weak".When a ruler acts perversely and causes serious damage to social productivity, the people who are driven to a dead end will still rise up: anyway, they are dead, so it is better to fight.

Even if the ruler can "20 meters in an instant", "stop time", "split mountains and open barriers", what can we do at this point?Kill all these rebels?Then who will farm the land and make iron?The destruction of productivity itself will lead to the lack of food and money for the rulers, and eventually the ruling order will come to an end.Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the strong is still deeply affected by productivity.This is true of the shieldguard's armor, the material of a Sarkaz spell, or the Grand Inquisitor's hand cannon.

That's why "this land" can maintain a social evolution process that is basically consistent with the universes that Comand is familiar with, despite having all kinds of wonderful gadgets.

It was Comand who used the theory that the guerrillas were not very convinced to explain the examples they had seen first-hand, so that the guerrillas began to accept "those flowers and flowers".But before that, the guerrillas quickly threw away the broken guns and artillery in their hands and picked up brand-new automatic weapons-this thing was more real than anything else.

In the six months since the integration movement was formally established, efforts have been quite fruitful.To this day, the integration movement squeezed out the pickets and gendarmes of the Ursus Empire, and isolated the local garrisons of the empire in their own strongholds; established a good relationship with the local people and laid the foundation for the establishment of the local government of the integration movement in the next stage .

However, such a thing has happened now—one of the executive members of the Central Executive Committee of the Integration Movement is actually the target of the possession of the god of Ursus; moreover, this "god" may have a very close relationship with the Ursus Empire, otherwise How can we use Ursus's emperor's inner guard?

This incident attracted great attention from the 113th Division.Considering that even with automatic rifles, it would be difficult for detachments of the armed work force to compete with the internal guards; and that the integration movement had successfully turned a large number of villages on the tundra against itself, the 113th Division decided to order the integrated armed work teams outside to return The main base is preparing to hold a meeting to summarize experiences and lessons and plan next steps.

The Patriots were worried at the moment, eager to meet and communicate with Comand.Can Talula be trusted as the heir chosen by Black Snake? — This is not even the most important thing.There are so many questions to ask:

Integrative sports receive totally inadequate training and too little practice time.Apart from ex-farmers, slave laborers or vagrants, the most "professional counterparts" are also guerrillas. Even with advanced assault rifles and semi-automatic rifles, they still suffer a lot when encountering the Ursas regular army with only one single player; The needy soldiers have urgent needs for revolution, and their revolutionary will is firm, but their fighting skills and sense of discipline are quite poor; in addition, there are...

Bozhuo Kasti, who was sorting out the questions in his mind, suddenly heard the noise in the distance.

Everyone among the current military workers of the Integrated Movement knows Comander.Either this former farmer or wanderer was recruited by him with his scouts; or this guerrilla was deeply impressed by the "traveling businessman" who ate source stones raw; or this infected slave worker was at the mining site The den trembled for a long time listening to the sound of gunfire and was liberated by this man.

Later, in the training center, everything from queue training to grievances and public trials, from seminars to political courses were all hosted by Comand.The guerrillas were all impressed by this guy's sudden transformation from a fool desperately throwing coins to a devil instructor.

From a distance came the warm greetings of "The Chief Political Commissar is back!" and "Hello, Chief Political Commissar!"Comand nodded calmly, and waved to everyone who greeted him. He walked through the crowd running towards the cafeteria, and everyone went to the cafeteria after saying hello. It is the integration movement fighters who kneel down, and they all have love and admiration for the 113th division.But Comand went in a different direction from the food grabbers, and met the Patriots who were coming from the direction of the shooting range.

Chapter 6 Sociology Points Are So Difficult

Comand worked his ass off to pull off the current integration movement.Among them, there are farmers recruited from the broken villages in the northwest tundra where birds don’t lay eggs, there are wandering infected people taken in from the wasteland where birds don’t shit, and there are infected slave laborers who have just been liberated from the mines. There are also guerrillas who march barefoot in the snow and dare to fight the Ursus army with three bullets per person.

It's the last part that we're going to talk about first.

"Patriot" Captain Bozokasti was a war hero of the Ursus Empire.But his only son was unfortunately killed in the riot of infected people.This man is the infected person who is the punching bag of all Terra, the discriminated Sarkaz "Demon Race", and the victim of the empire's policy of discrimination against infected people-he chose to take his own shield warriors to rise up.

However, as a former Ursus military officer, he has a deep understanding of the military strength of the Ursus Empire.Therefore, he could only take a few hundred troops to fight guerrillas in the Northwest Tundra, where Ursas ruled the weakest.In the harsh environment where "breaking off a tree stick is a weapon, melting snow in the mouth is water, and only bark and grass seeds are in the stomach", they fought bravely, tenaciously, and unyieldingly.

Contrary to their opponents, who are mainly composed of the dregs of society, the pickets wantonly squeeze and commit violence, this guerrilla group named "Shield of the Infected" is real gold refined in fire.

Although the northwest tundra is the weak link of the empire's rule, the natural environment here is so harsh that it is difficult enough for the residents here to survive.The guerrillas can only move around, and the weapons and equipment brought out from the Ursas army cannot be replenished or repaired; the pickets, gendarmes, and local garrisons of the Ursas Empire always have an overwhelming advantage in strength and equipment; Can't support it, only the fragile economic system of natural villages can't support "armed separatism".The guerrillas can only roam the snowfields and train the peasants who defected to them into fighters; facing the slightly stronger mobile mines, they are as helpless as encountering the Tuba Road of the artillery tower.

All partisans knew they were waging a hopeless war.They are faced with a harsh environment, a powerful enemy, and a desperate situation without backup.If the Ursus Empire launches a campaign of siege a little more seriously, the annihilation of the entire army may come tomorrow.These ragged and hungry warriors in the snow field fought because they hated oppression and discrimination.Their existence is a rare bright color on this unsightly land.

Comand spoke very highly of the Infected Shield guerrillas, and stated more than once in public that the guerrillas were his biggest gain since entering the Northwest Tundra.

"Greetings, Comrade Bodrocasti."

"Hello, Comrade Commander. How is the situation?"

"Are you referring to Tallulah? This will have to wait for the investigation committee to make a conclusion. But this time I invite you to come over to talk about this issue. Have you read the latest internal reference?"

"Tallulah's personal analysis and preliminary discussion on the black snake problem? I've read it."

"That's good, please wait a little longer." Comand waved his hand.

Before he finished speaking, a sharp female voice came from the side: "Dad? Why are you here?"

Patriot's adopted daughter "Frost Star" Yelena rushed over and almost couldn't stop the car and hit her father: "Go back! Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so you can't come out to have a blast!"

Bozhuo Kasi's voice was calm: "I can't stand there and confront the inner guard when you are in the most danger, can't I even spend some time to understand the situation now?"

Commander smiled: "That's such a pity. I really want to see the scene when the inner guards confront you. I heard you say that two inner guards can't deal with you?"

"Uh... isn't that a discussion meeting?"

Everyone turned their heads together and saw Alina holding a red envelope in her arms with a blank look on her face.

"Part of it is right." Comand waved his hand calmly.

People froze for a moment, and then knew what "part" meant.

Tallulah appeared.It’s just that everyone didn’t recognize her at first glance: she was the same as before, wearing the military coat provided by the 113th Division to the revolutionaries, but she no longer held her head high and walked briskly.She slumped now, shuffled, and didn't stop until she was about to bump into everyone.

"Do you have a surveillance bracelet?" Comand asked.

Tallulah, who was suspended from work for investigation, glanced at Commander silently, raised her hand, and slid down her sleeve to reveal the positioning bracelet on her wrist.

Commander nodded: "Think better, I just ask you to carry the positioning transmitter at all times and not leave the camp. Even after I make a report, I am allowed to take you out."

Anyone with a little bit of vigilance and political awareness can't help but look around: here are three of the five central executive members of the Integration Movement, among which Comand and Bodro Kasti are the two with the highest status.

As the chief executive member of the Central Committee, Tallulah was informally called the "leader" by everyone.When Command made it clear that he would not "sit in the top spot" in the integration movement, the Terraya people who had taken this for granted were very surprised—Command was the convener of more than 2000 people in the integration movement. The highest representative of the People's Federation forces in the integration movement has the right to decide the material and human support of the People's Federation for the integration movement.Being a leader seems normal.

However, since Commander repeatedly stated that whoever likes to be the boss should be the boss, the natives of Terra were not polite.After a fierce competition with intrigues, despite the strong support of all the former guerrillas, the Patriots were still defeated by the political assistant and historical current affairs lecturer at the training center, who was as popular as Tallulah who loved to show off - how could the rough old man defeat him? How about beating a beautiful girl?

And everyone soon understood how heavy the title "General Political Commissar" was to the system of the "Integration Movement". "Ideological and political work" and "organizational building work" are by no means dispensable.

"What are you going to do?" Tallulah asked calmly.

"Go and talk about your ideals and other things." Comand said, "I heard a joke recently. The fighters of our integration movement listened to us, the instructors of the People's Federation, that people must have spiritual pursuits when they are full. Noble things.

"Although farmers, miners, and homeless people think that having a beast of burden to farm, marrying a wife to build a house, and having two meals a day to eat is the best life, you have no idea what a 'noble thing' is. I understand too well, but it is definitely noble to make revolution and build integrationism.

"So everyone thought hard and came to the conclusion - this People's League team is full of food and comes out to help everyone in the revolution in pursuit of nobility..."

What else can you answer besides laughing awkwardly?

Comand waved his hand suddenly: "It's okay, this issue must be clarified.

"We said that there are 100 million worlds under the rule of the Human Future Community Alliance over there - that is, planets. There is a 120-kilometer-diameter space star castle and escort fleet hidden behind the moon. They are sent to 'here' All this land is just a forward base of forward bases. Of course you don't believe it.
