When 9% of the survivors in the New World were still enjoying themselves on small sampans, a fully-organized armed fleet was indeed a bit exaggerated.

Even though the flag of the Red Flower Gang was waving to identify themselves, the survivors on the river were still involuntarily holding the boat back as the central command ship gradually approached.

This comes from the fear of giants that is rooted in human genes.

However, when the fleet approached quickly and the cargo ship in the center appeared in everyone's field of vision, the fear that had just appeared was immediately suppressed by the excitement that quickly rose.

The Red Flower Gang territory is very poor.

Although there are many mineral resources in the surrounding area, there is even a small gold mine that is almost equivalent to an open pit.

But as we all know, before there is sufficient mining capacity and sales channels, the purchasing power of this thing is actually no different from that of stones that can be seen everywhere.

Sitting on a pile of useless stones and unwilling to leave directly led to not only the poorness of the territory, but also the poverty of the residents of the territory.

Most of the people's clothes are in tatters, and there are patches of grass fibers stuck to the holes all over their bodies.

Compared with the affluence of Tianyuan Territory, this place may not even qualify as a slum.

However, in the eyes of Song Chunrui, Wang Bi, and Pang Pangyuan, it was a different story.

As early as when the deep-sea survivors left for the New World in large numbers, many people felt that as long as a territory was established, all kinds of necessary supplies would be produced sooner or later.

However, after actually arriving here, the cruel reality wakes up anyone who is still dreaming.

Yes, everyone knows that to make a piece of clothing, you only need to cut the fabric into a suitable pattern and sew it.

Some people also know that cloth can be woven from raw yarn through warping, sizing, and drawing.

Even fewer people know that raw yarn can be made from cotton through a variety of processes.

But in reality, without those modern automatic machines, how many people can turn cotton into cloth?

The answer is cruel!

Mature industrial capabilities can turn an originally complex matter into countless simple processes that are superimposed back and forth.

But without this ability, enforcing these simple processes is no less than reinventing new laws.

"It is indeed a territory of more than 200,000 people. It is developing so fast here. There are so many ships."

"There are no naked people. How luxurious. They don't need to take off their clothes to work?"

"Brother Liu really didn't lie. The development of the Honghua Gang can at least rank in front of 70% of small territories!"

"Haha, with the supplies that Brother Liu bought from thousands of miles away, this 70% will probably become 99%."

"Look at this group of people, they are all calling Brother Liu's name. It seems that Brother Liu has a lot of prestige in the territory!"

The three people's unabashed compliments flooded towards Liu Zhi like a tide, making him feel a sense of ecstasy. Looking around again, cheering crowds gathered on both sides of the river, their voices rising and falling, as if they were lifting him up into the clouds.

Is this what it feels like to return rich and rich?

Liu Zhi thought to himself, and his chest involuntarily stood up, forming a right angle with the sky.

The other accompanying crew members also breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

Stay in Tianyuan and return to the Honghua Gang.

They chose the latter amid all kinds of tangles, and now the facts have proved that their previous reckless decision was very wise.

The Tianyuan Territory, which has developed into the era of heavy industry, does not care about a few extra unimportant ordinary people in the territory.

If they choose to stay, they will only gradually die in a long and ordinary life.

But the Honghua Gang, this small territory is so barren that it is shocking.

They returned like a bright light in the dark night, enough to light the way forward for 200,000 people.

Sandwiched between the cheering crowds on both sides, the fleet slowed down and began to move forward slowly.

The ripples on the river surface rippled gently, as if they were also dancing for this grand scene.

After confirming the identity of this fleet, some bold survivors plucked up the courage to get closer.

Although after being discovered by the sailors, they immediately stopped this dangerous behavior with a loudspeaker, but it can be seen that the name of the human God Su carries an exaggerated weight no matter where he is.

Even though the survivors in the wasteland know that blind trust may have fatal consequences, many people have paid a heavy price for trusting others.

But in front of the human God Su, it seems that these dogmas that have been realized through life can be temporarily left behind.

They involuntarily put down their guard and chose to trust the human being they had never met.

"With the reputation of a lord, we can reduce 99% of our troubles wherever we go!"

"With this advantage, other forces simply cannot catch up."

Standing in the command room and watching the scenes relayed on the screen, Cui Lu was not surprised.

He was also a survivor brought back by Somo from the origin camp, and he knew the feeling of hope suddenly approaching.

Now, although Sumo has not come in person, this huge fleet can still restore 90% of the effect.

Cui Lu secretly guessed.

Now if he waved his arms and encouraged them a few times, these people would probably immediately rebel against the Honghua Gang and join Tianyuan.

"While enjoying the benefits of fame, you will inevitably be trapped by fame."

Su Deben still remained calm, especially after he started to think about teaching students, he never wanted to pass on his way of thinking.

"If I were those dwarves, I would definitely not miss such a good opportunity now. Look at these ordinary people surrounding our ship, how happy they are.

If a surprise attack could be launched at this time while the fleet was docking, even if it did not cause too many casualties, ordinary civilians would subconsciously blame the Tianyuan fleet for the casualties. "

"I will even take the initiative to target these ordinary people, and I will not shout any stupid slogan that if you want to cooperate with Tianyuan, you have to pay a price.

I will give these ordinary people the illusion that I regard them as people from the Tianyuan Territory. This will have a better effect. They will directly think that it is the Tianyuan Territory that harms them, rather than them cooperating with Tianyuan.

When a good reputation has negative attributes, you will have too many concerns if you want to use it next time."

As Sudben said, he couldn't help but put himself into the dwarf's perspective to make plans.

The level of viciousness immediately stunned everyone in the command room, especially the second officer in charge of the fleet's armament and the third officer in charge of the fleet's navigation route. The two men suddenly showed a look of shock.

However, it was a pity that before this impromptu plan was completely completed, a rapid beeping sound suddenly sounded in the cabin, interrupting it.

It’s in the bioradar detector!

"The detection has detected that a large number of unknown creatures are approaching, very quickly!"

The radar soldier sitting in front of the screen suddenly screamed strangely, causing the atmosphere in the cabin to tense up.

Everyone's eyes glanced at the red dots reflected back from the radar map. The originally sparse point signals now showed dense red dots, like a fire burning in the darkness.

But the strange thing is that these threats do not come from far away, but underwater!

Hundreds of thousands of red dots appeared quietly like ghosts. They quickly gathered together to form a huge funnel-shaped encirclement. The fleet was in the center of this encirclement, as if it was a carefully planned hunt.

If you really say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here!

"Teacher, this"

Cui Lu's mind still echoed with the vicious plan Su Deben had just described, and his face instantly turned pale.

As the captain, his first reaction was to immediately put the fleet on alert to prepare for the enemy's attack.

However, before the order was issued, he was interrupted by Sudeben's hearty laughter.

"The three key points I told you before were just theoretical discussions, just words on paper."

"Including the plan I just mentioned casually, there are all flaws. If you think carefully, you can deduce how to deal with it."

"And now, the opponent's carefully prepared killing move has arrived. This is the first lesson you face!"

The huge fleet is still heading towards the temporary dock of the Honghua Gang.

After the red dots hunted underwater quickly approached, they did not rush to the surface to take advantage of the opportunity to fight, but waited and lingered at a depth of about ten meters.

This discovery could not help but make the atmosphere in the command room relax a little, and everyone's tense nerves relaxed a little.

But even as he breathed a sigh of relief, he became increasingly confused about the thoughts of these enemies.

However, Su Deben seemed unusually calm at this time. After briefly explaining some precautions, he simply handed over the command and became the hands-off manager.

According to his exact words.

The task assigned to him by Sumo was not to assist the Polaris Fleet in completing its first voyage, nor to ensure that the fleet could successfully conduct caravan trade. These trivial matters should be handled by Captain Cui Lu.

What's more, the enemy's plan has been guessed in advance, and there is such an important information gap to assist.

If this battle cannot be won, then there is no need for the Polaris Fleet to exist.

"Pass my order!" Cui Lu's voice echoed in the command room, firm and powerful. He issued the order decisively: "The sailors inside the cabin immediately changed their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy. The sailors outside should not notify them for the time being, so as not to alert the enemy!"

Excessive pressure did not make the still new captain cautious, but instead brought surging fighting spirit.

And this is precisely the reason why he was not on the list of the top 100 people in the wasteland in Future Relics, but was able to obtain the recognized title of 'Breaking the Army's Raging Waves'.

Having said that, the reason Su Deben was so reassured was probably because the enemy's methods were too low-level, and he had already predicted in advance any possible attack that these enemies might launch after they gathered together.

And Cui Lu knew that he was still far behind in this regard.

Especially when it comes to predicting the enemy's plans in advance. After all, most of the wars he has access to come from old-fashioned recorded cases, as well as those film and television works that can be called dramas, which are far different from the real battlefield.

Of course, if the fleet now pours out its firepower, it can shoot these idiots underwater into a sieve, but then it will lose the meaning of growth. Any commander with a normal mind can do it.

Therefore, he chose a more cautious and secure strategy.

Being prepared means taking the bait.

"Captain, an explosive reaction has been detected at the temporary dock ahead, and the intensity is expected to be at a low numerical level."

"Captain, a large number of biological reactions have been detected in the front, distributed behind the dock, and the number is about three thousand."

"Captain, we have detected a small number of creatures approaching Xianjiang, come closer."

One piece after another, important information is passed through the monitoring device to the command room in an orderly manner.

Among them are the Foundation-standard devices brought by the Red Spider Caravan, as well as new devices developed in the opposite territory.

From a technical perspective alone, it can easily surpass the world's technological level by several blocks.

And considering that the other party does not have any shielding means, this is basically a strategic game played through perspective.

"Interesting, it seems that the plan they implemented is not to directly attack and shift blame."

Such thoughts flashed through Cui Lu's mind.

in the screen.

There are already several larger sampans approaching on the water ahead, with colorful flowers hanging on them, which is very festive.

Tianyuan territory and the three super territories will be contacted at specific times through the code words of the world channel.

These territories that have passed the micro stage will naturally not ignore this important means of communication.

Liu Zhi must have contacted the territory through a similar method before setting off.

So now the fleet has just arrived, and groups of welcoming ships have already been sent out at the dock.

"Brother Liu has indeed made good arrangements. He has already made arrangements in advance before returning home."

"Wherever, mainly because Tianyuan's fleet is coming, we have to communicate with the territory in advance, otherwise it will be bad if we bump into the distinguished guests."

Liu Zhi's face was indifferent, but his heart was so excited that he wanted to fly.

Before the fleet actually set off for the territory, he had been suppressing his excitement and did not dare to send a message.

After all, it would be embarrassing if you informed the territory in advance that the cooperation was successful, but failed to bring the goods back in the end.

And it was not until yesterday morning that the fleet set off.

He then simply stated the success of the cooperation and the arrival time of the fleet in code words on the World Channel.

Time was really short. I didn't expect Ji Wuming to be so capable and prepare the welcome ceremony in just one day.

Although it is not as luxurious as Tianyuan Territory, looking at the opening ceremony, it is definitely considered grand for a small territory!

As the flower boat approached, there was another round of enthusiastic cheers.

Waiting until the temporary dock that was ten times larger than before departure appeared, Liu Zhi finally couldn't help laughing and said:

"Everyone, I'm afraid I have to go get ready. I'm going to go down and coordinate first."

"Brother Liu, please!"

"As expected of the Red Flower Gang, this magnanimity is truly extraordinary. Brother Liu, please come!"

"Don't worry about us, today is your home court."

Envy flashed in the eyes of the three of them, and they stared closely at Liu Zhi's figure as he disappeared around the corner of the gangway below the deck.

If nothing else, the size of this temporary wharf is almost one-third the size of Tianyuan Wharf.

Compared with their territory, the Red Flower Gang not only has a huge advantage in distance, but is also much faster in advance preparation.

If this cannot develop further, then there will be

boom!

At this moment, dazzling flames suddenly flashed behind everyone.

Immediately afterwards, an explosion loud enough to shake the sky exploded in the ears, deafening, as if it was about to tear the entire world apart.

In just an instant, a huge wave of air swept over like a violent wind, causing the three of them to lose their balance instantly, and their bodies flew heavily towards the side rails on the deck.

Fortunately, the direction of the explosion was not towards the water, but towards the land, otherwise it would have been fatal or crippling.
