Chapter 2519 The Great Changes in the World (Part 2)
"The third thing is to talk! Talk as much as you can. We don't necessarily have to have all the land. We can give up wasteland, buffer zones, and even the outer edges of some provinces."
"Pushing the war a hundred kilometers away is like saving a city for us. Don't feel ashamed. We need to keep our people here first so we can have a chance to survive and develop later."
He placed his hand on the table, his voice steady and calm:
"The dragons won't take over this game. I believe in the 'bottom-line protection' the black dragons have given us, but I won't expect them to guard every single gate for us. We are the ones who guard the gates."
No one on the screen said a word.
Everyone is taking notes, drawing pictures, and comparing them with their own geographical maps.
"Now each district is sending up a list of characteristics of the 'enemy already seen' through an encrypted channel, along with any images that can be captured. Pay attention to three words: verifiable. Don't mythologize, don't exaggerate, and don't let rumors ruin morale."
These days, Zhang Yi is quite adept at attending such meetings, speaking clearly and logically, and no longer relies on Yang Xinxin to prepare his speeches.
The main reason is that he has no psychological burden and has the strength to back him up, so he can say whatever he wants.
No one interrupted him; they all listened attentively.
"Houtu, you and Ksitigarbha are responsible for creating an overlay map of the geography, underground passages, and resource points; Li Guangxiao, prepare the nautical chart; Chen Xuanba, investigate the abnormal climate on the border; Xiao Lie, Jueguo, and Luo Zhuo, go through the procedures for your evacuation points again, treat today as a drill; Zhu Zheng, give me a draft of the plan to appease the people, not just a 'slogan version,' I need the kind that can be implemented at the street office level."
He looked at each projection, finally stopping at Houtu, his tone softening slightly:
"Everyone is tired. But I still have to say the same old thing—today, we don't want anyone to be a hero. What we want is not one or two brilliant battles, but to bring the country intact into the next year, the year after, and ten years from now."
Houtu nodded: "Understood."
"receive."
The group of people responded in turn, and no one raised any objections.
Zhang Yi crossed his arms and smiled faintly, "Alright, that's about all I wanted to say! Everyone, please share your thoughts."
Zhang Yi spread his hands, signaling for everyone to speak.
The order of speaking is generally based on the strength of the region.
After Zhang Yi finished speaking, it was naturally the turn of the Shengjing region.
So Meng Yuanjun cleared his throat and spoke, his voice low and steady.
"Gentlemen, an upheaval has occurred. Let's not wait for the storm to pass; let's first prepare our umbrellas. The meeting has three objectives: coordinates, boundaries, and bottom lines. First, report the situation, then determine the plan. Let's start with Shengjing!"
He picked up his speech, glanced at it, and added, "Several unidentified groups have appeared wandering around the outer ring of Shengjing. They are scattered in form, including anthropomorphic individuals and aberrant variants. Their energy spectrum shows a high level, but they have not actively attacked."
"We have sealed off all access routes, and Shengjing City has activated its defensive shield, ensuring no contact with the outside world."
"Furthermore, prioritizing population concentration will ensure that food and energy supplies are not a problem for the time being, and we can be self-sufficient for three years without any issues."
Shang Daowen pointed his finger in the air, projecting the structure of the Shengjing city cluster into the air: "We have connected the cellars in the old city into a continuous cold chain, and the young and weak have been relocated; the groundwater level is stable, and the granaries have been replaced with smaller chambers to prevent them from being wiped out in one blow; in addition, the first round of knowledge backup has been completed."
Within a single day, they had completed all preparations for battle, truly deserving of their reputation as the most powerful region in Huaxu Kingdom outside of Tianhai.
Everyone nodded in agreement, expressing their approval of the Shengjing region.
Then, Ji Changhai from the Northeast region took over.
“In our northeastern region, there have been three attempts by spying people to test the border. Lu Ya personally led a team to retaliate, but the other side was only testing us and did not make any move against us.”
"We assigned the core members of the winter training team to various locations for garrison duty, and the villages and towns outside the city were brought back to the urban area. An additional thin air route was added above the snow line to ensure emergency evacuation."
Han Shanzuo spoke slowly: "We will not initiate an attack, but we will not retreat. The boundary is drawn by three lines: mountain ridges, fault lines, and glacial lakes. Any behavior that breaks the rules—such as turning an entire valley into an ice shell—is considered quasi-aggression. We will mark it first and then report it."
When the National Protection Army spoke, Chen Xuanba said in a deep voice, "The National Protection Army encountered the Ice and Snow Race on the border of Fremont. It's not an ordinary cold wave, but a regular cold zone. Our reconnaissance posts are frozen on the map—this is not a figure of speech, but the reality."
“We withdrew, built a fire line, and left a hot needle. If the other side continues to advance, we have a ‘heating’ plan to raise the ground temperature to a manageable threshold before withdrawing personnel.”
In the Northwest region, Xiao Lie's statement was more concise: "Underneath the Northwest Sand Belt, there is a giant body turning over. The earthquake pattern is different from that of wild animals; it's like a machine rolling 500 meters down. I've kept the border troops stationed on the second line, not advancing rashly. The provisions have been replaced with high-calorie dry bricks, and water is being drawn from underground salt springs."
There were no unusual developments in the Southwest region, so the two brothers didn't say much.
Zhang Yi, recalling the feud between Gao Changkong and Indra, instructed them, "Keep a close eye on Bharata! Gao Changkong has betrayed us—"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zheng's eyes widened immediately.
Has he betrayed us again?
So where is Gao Changkong now?
Zhang Yi glanced at him meaningfully, but did not tell him about Gao Changkong's subsequent movements.
Because he doesn't know it himself.
"Indra is also acting strangely now. He encountered some strange sights while he was on the moon. This guy has a special ability to predict the future, so he's someone worth paying attention to."
The two brothers nodded, indicating that they would definitely comply.
Next, it was the turn of the Jiangnan region.
Zhu Zheng cleared his throat, temporarily suppressing his fear of Gao Changkong.
“We have witnessed sightings in both the coastal areas and inland regions of Jiangnan. We are following your training regulations and will avoid contact if possible. Major ports are closed, and fishing boats are entering. Blizzard City evacuated 37,000 people into the city in one day, with the pressure mainly focused on food and lodging.”
"As for the sea area, with my brother Chaos here, I feel very reassured!"
Zhu Zheng looked at Zhang Yi with a smile. Their Jiangnan region and Tianhai City were connected. Today, Tianhai City was more than capable of being a region on its own.
With such a good brother and powerful connections, he felt very secure.
Following that was a speech from the East China Sea region.
Li Guangxiao directly released the nautical chart to the public.
"Unidentified creatures are roaming the waters near the East China Sea. We will not venture into the deep sea. The entire fleet will return to port, and the underwater vehicles will serve as sentries in the shallow waters. The Xuanwu will guard the outer harbor with a three-layered denial ring. The pyloric alert of the sea and air radars will be activated, and any suspected alien species approaching, regardless of size, will be marked first."
After listening, Zhang Yi nodded, his tone gentle, yet each word was uttered firmly.
"Okay, I've received the situation reports from each district. Now, let Xin Xin handle the specific arrangements!"
Zhang Yi was still not very good at arranging specific action plans, so he simply gave Yang Xinxin a look.
