Chapter 1137 Meeting 3 (Too lazy to think of a title)

The group walked into the interior of the office building. The spacious and bright hall had been renovated and exuded a simple and efficient military style.

Without too much decoration, the mirror-like floor reflects the solemn figures of the people. Huge electronic display screens are hung on the walls, scrolling the situation information of important locations in the war zone in real time. Occasionally, staff officers in casual or combat uniforms walk by in a hurry. When they see this team of generals, they immediately stand up and salute, their eyes full of awe.

Gu Chengyuan nodded slightly in response, and without stopping, he led everyone to the dedicated high-rise elevator.

Because it was originally a library, the space inside the elevator was not very spacious, but if they squeezed together, it could barely accommodate the dozen or so senior generals. As for the rest of the accompanying personnel below the rank of lieutenant general, they could only squeeze into the elevator next to them.

The elevator runs smoothly and quickly, with almost no noise, only the slight sound of mechanical operation.

The generals in the Eastern Theater silently felt the sense of power under the silence. Zhou Wei and Wang Zhiming communicated silently with their eyes from time to time. The shock in their hearts had not yet subsided, and they were more expectant and cautious about the upcoming talks.

"Ding--"

With a slight sound, the elevator reached the eighth floor smoothly, and the doors slowly slid open to both sides.

The first thing that caught my eye was a wide and solemn corridor with bright and soft lighting. The floor was covered with dark non-slip carpet that absorbed all the sounds of footsteps.

What is even more eye-catching are the guards standing solemnly at intervals on both sides of the corridor.

They were all dressed in starry sky camouflage training uniforms, matte black 'Dragon Spine-I' exoskeletons, full-face tactical helmets, and held QBZ-191 assault rifles equipped with various accessories. They stood as tall as pine trees, looking straight ahead with sharp and determined eyes.

When Gu Chengyuan was the first to step out of the elevator, the guards seemed to have received a silent command. They moved in unison and raised their guns to salute at the same time with a "swish" sound!

The movements were clean and powerful, silently demonstrating the extremely high standards and discipline of this place.

Gu Chengyuan's face was calm as he accepted the guards' respect calmly, but he paused slightly to show his respect for this solemn etiquette.

The generals of the Central Plains Theater behind him had long been accustomed to it, while the representatives of the Eastern Theater once again felt the breathtaking authority and order that came towards them.

Gu Chengyuan didn't say much and led everyone straight to a heavy double door with a metal frame deep in the corridor.

Two soldiers from the Royal Guards Regiment standing at the door pushed the door open on both sides, and a spacious and solemn meeting room instantly appeared in front of everyone.

The main tone of the conference room is dark. A dark walnut oval long conference table occupies the center position. On the table are exquisite microphones, name tags, and uniform notebooks and pens. The chairs are heavy leather high-back chairs, which look calm and comfortable.

The wall directly in front is a huge high-definition electronic display screen, which is currently in standby mode and emits a deep blue light.

Above the display screen, the national emblem of the Zhou State and the battle flag of the Zhongzhou war zone were hung solemnly.

The walls on both sides are relatively simple. On one side is a large map of the Zhou Dynasty and a world map, and on the other side are some inspiring slogans and combat regulations.

The entire conference room has no unnecessary decorations. The light mainly comes from the soft light strips embedded in the ceiling and the focused lights above the table, creating an atmosphere of focus, efficiency and slightly oppressive. Everything is in line with the style of the highest decision-making body of the military - practical, serious and authoritative.

"Everyone, please take a seat." Gu Chengyuan walked to the main seat, but did not sit down immediately. Instead, he gestured with a smile.

After hearing the order, the guide in the conference room immediately stepped forward and guided everyone to their seats according to the name tags.

The Standing Committee members of the Central Plains Theater naturally sat to the left and below the right of Gu Chengyuan, while the representatives of the Eastern Theater were arranged on the right side of the conference table.

After everyone was seated, the atmosphere in the conference room seemed to settle, becoming solemn and focused.

Everyone's eyes, whether openly or secretly, were focused on the main seat.

Gu Chengyuan placed his hands lightly on the smooth table, his fingertips touching each other, his posture straight as a pine tree, his eyes slowly sweeping over every general present, lingering especially on the faces of the representatives of the Eastern Theater.

"First of all, on behalf of the Central Plains Theater, I would like to extend my warmest welcome to General Zhou, General Wang, and all our colleagues from the Eastern Theater!"

"With the advent of the apocalypse, human civilization faces unprecedented challenges. Our forces are scattered across the land, cut off from information, and fighting on their own. Survival is difficult, let alone development."

"Today, being able to sit together with comrades from the Eastern Theater to share our strengths and discuss the future is in itself a positive sign and a flame of hope that we are working hard to ignite amidst the darkness and predicament."

His words were not overly flowery, but carried a sense of perspective that transcended his age.

Lieutenant General Zhou Wei of the Eastern Theater Command immediately took over the conversation, his face filled with a sincere smile, his tone filled with just the right amount of humility and emotion:

"Commander Gu is absolutely right! Thank you for your gracious invitation and thoughtful arrangements. To be honest, what we have seen and heard along the way has truly shocked us and filled us with emotion!"

He leaned forward slightly, his posture very low:

"Your army is strong and well-organized. I heard you're even working on retaking important cities like Yucheng, creating such a peaceful and prosperous base. You're truly a model for us to emulate, and the hope for the future of the Zhou state!"

Although the purpose of Lieutenant General Zhou Wei of the Eastern Theater Command's words was to flatter and elevate the Central Plains Theater Command to an extremely high position to facilitate subsequent requests, his admiration and envy were genuine.

While our own war zone was still playing Boom Beach, the enemy had already started to attack Zhou Bang’s largest industrial city, and it was said that the progress was very rapid!

There is no need to explain what industry means to the army. If the already extremely powerful Zhongzhou war zone can capture Zhoubang's first industrial center, the combination of the two will be like adding wings to a tiger!

When Yucheng's industrial capacity is integrated by the Zhongzhou War Zone, Zhou Wei really can't think of anything that can stop the Zhongzhou War Zone!

By that time, the Central Plains War Zone would probably be so powerful that even he couldn't imagine it...

Maybe in the future, the banner of ending the apocalypse will really have to be carried by the Zhongzhou War Zone, and can only be carried by the Zhongzhou War Zone!

As soon as Lieutenant General Zhou Wei finished speaking, his old partner, Deputy Commander Wang Zhiming, immediately added something. His tone changed, and it was a little heavy:

"Yes, Commander Gu, compared to your prosperity, our Eastern Theater Command... well, we are truly ashamed."

"Trapped in the Zhoushan Islands and scattered coastal outposts, the sea routes are severely threatened by mutated sea beasts, air routes are almost cut off due to fuel shortages, and the land is even more isolated by the tide of zombies numbering in the billions."
