Chapter 267 Analyzing the Situation_2
Su Han's expression became serious.
Yan Tiejun's hoarse voice came through, "We all held on for several months until the second fog tide came, and couldn't hold on anymore. In heavily fortified cities with plenty of Armed Forces and fortifications, we absolutely could have held on longer, even make it through the transition."
"You two must have simulated it again these past few days."
Su Han's eyes were sharp as he looked towards Li Ruikang and the others.
They didn't deny it and said, "Yes, according to the scale of the second wave, a large part of the cities would become fallen cities, the number of survivors would significantly decline, and the Survivors' Camp might even be destroyed, losing the ability to recover by itself. But we believe there are still some cities that will inevitably be preserved, even having recovered before us."
Li Ruikang's tone was firm as he met Su Han's gaze, and he said, "The cities vary in their levels, and so do their emergency levels. Even we immediately convene a meeting upon encountering such heavy fog, let alone those major cities and Armed Forces bases."
Yan Tiejun spread out a map, which bore the marks of repeated erasures but ultimately retained several large circles and a few smaller ones, scattered across the map.
"This is our result, just a direction, not necessarily accurate."
Su Han looked at the map, stunned momentarily; they must have repeated countless times to obtain a rough idea.
Li Ruikang pointed to a red dot in the south, and said, "This is our South City, bordered by hills with dense, but not high elevations. Just entering the city, the monsters inside the mountains might be our biggest obstacle. Under the fog, we don't know whether the monster Evolution is faster than ours or behind us, nor do we know exactly how many interspatial fissures exist there."
Su Han felt a sudden pressure in his heart; Li Ruikang's words were very objective.
"But there are benefits here too,"
He pointed to a hill on the west side of South City, "Here, a decade ago, an iron ore was discovered. The reserve is neither large nor small, but due to highway equipment and infrastructure, it remained undeveloped, only starting to show activity in the past two years. Now that supplies are cut off, if we need metal, we have to rely on ourselves.
I've mentioned this to Meiyu before, and she should have some ideas."
Su Han nodded and said, "Let's talk about the cities, these six big circles."
The six big circles encompassed more than one city; Su Han's gaze landed on Yan Tiejun's face, filled with curiosity.
"The six Armed Forces regions, Southwest Armed Forces, Central Armed Forces, Northern Armed Forces, Eastern Armed Forces, Northwest Armed Forces, Southern Armed Forces."
The west's terrain is complex, the largest area, the Armed Forces established two bases there, respectively Northwest and Southwest, the rest are divided by terrain.
Yan Tiejun said, "My rank isn't high enough, all the Armed Forces have their own bases, they are divided out, I only know a few main areas, so I drew them here. Central Armed Forces overall have the strongest strength, all sites have the finest equipment, and they also control the Dongfeng series weapons. They might be the first to have recovered at the early stage of the first tide."
"Fenglu, Wushan, East Sea, Mo City, Lingzhou, Kakta these major cities all have military bases nearby, they will stabilize the Armed Forces' chaos first, then recover the cities, and relying on the cities, at all costs, contact surrounding bases, connecting to form a city defense circle."
Su Han's eyes slightly moved as he followed Yan Tiejun's pointing hand, looking at those large circles, and he couldn't help but be impressed.
Yan Tiejun's military calculations might be the highest possibility, even he couldn't gauge some information he didn't know.
An Armed Forces section chief of a city can know about some open bases; this was already the limit of his authority.
But what specific weapons there were, he couldn't possibly know all.
Take interspatial rifts for example, although the monsters are huge, even with Third Order individuals appearing, but what about a missile?
Could the Third Order withstand it?
Absolutely not.
Under such military strength, the recovery of cities is inevitable, and the monsters inside the cities will no longer pose a threat.
The real monster threat lies outside the cities, becoming stronger over time.
And now, the biggest obstacle may still be this pervasive white fog, which secludes sight and communication, causing many variables.
"Previously, when you were at the camp in South City, you always dragged it out, not only aiming to recover South City, but also waiting for the Southwest Armed Forces to contact you, or you to contact them, right?"
Su Han suddenly asked with a smile, looking at the two old, calculating fellows in front of him. Your next read is at empire
Li Ruikang generously admitted, "Yes, we just didn't expect the second fog tide to come so quickly and fiercely. Even more, we didn't expect you to become so powerful, advancing everyone a rank, a big rank. We must be fortunate, if it wasn't for you in South City, we might have been destroyed like many other medium and small cities, or at least lost the possibility of recovery."
His words carried a hint of regret as his gaze uncontrollably moved towards other cities; in his and Yan Tiejun's overnight calculations, most cities in Jiangling Province probably suffered even more severe damage in the second tide.
If every city had a Su Han, it would be great.
Li Ruikang had this thought more than once, but upon seeing Su Han, he recalled Bai Qiuwen's words.
Su Han must be an exception, a rare exception, with inexplicable perception, understanding capabilities, and ability to Fusion, markedly different from other Talented Ones.
