Reincarnated Bamboo Rat Starts Extreme Survival

Chapter 306 The era of the upper four cities is over
"The promulgation of the Wildlife Protection Law does not mean that we will no longer make money, nor does it mean that development of dangerous areas is not allowed. Our fundamental purpose of protecting these wild animals and plants is to better obtain resources."

"Our fundamental purpose of protecting dangerous areas and developing them in a rhythmic manner is to defend our own rights and interests."

As the top manager of Chishui City, Bell's order to stop the adventurous craze was implemented at an alarming speed.

From official notices to private newspapers and periodicals, from chat bars to schools at all levels, wildlife protection laws have become a new hot spot in the city.

Destructive mining is undesirable and has become a public consensus in a short period of time.

Although the total amount of resources in the world of Digoa allows all races to completely ignore consumption and waste, as long as the technology and strength are sufficient, they can continuously draw resources from various dangerous places.

But for most cities in the southwest, and most ordinary people in this world, they have to make a living in those dangerous areas throughout their lives, so rhythmic protective mining is still necessary.

The binding force of legal provisions has greatly reduced the number of residents going to gold mining in areas controlled by other cities, but this does not mean that this behavior has completely disappeared.

After a period of exploration and practice, starting from Chishui City to explore dangerous places in other regions, a tourism industry has initially formed.

Those gold diggers who specialize in efficient hunting will no longer visit places, and the danger of dangerous areas has been greatly reduced. Such places are perfect for tourism development.

The humans in the world of Digoa are quite tough. Even the most squeamish noble lady can wield a weapon. Their desire for exploration and adventure is very strong. The thrill of successful hunting and the excitement it can bring to people are engraved in their genes. .

In these dangerous areas where safety has been greatly improved, the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce directly cooperates with surrounding cities to turn these places into hunting grounds and other facilities, and directly develop tourism.

For the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, these expanded industries are complementary industries on their business road. Although the profits are not as good as many projects within the Chamber of Commerce, the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce will not let go of any money-making opportunity.

In the industry, the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce can express arrogantly that it doesn’t matter how much you earn or how little you earn. What’s important is that I have to earn the money.

For those small cities that cooperate with the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, they can also get a share of the tourism projects developed by the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce. The large number of foreigners brought by the tourism projects can more or less boost tourism consumption.

Although these small cities are compared horizontally with Chishui City, most places here are not as good as the countryside around Chishui City.

Residents of these small cities can clearly feel the gap after having more contact with Chishui City.

People who come out of Chishui City seem to be smarter, more confident, and richer.

Obviously they are all human beings, but people in these small cities just don't know why there is such a gap. They cannot understand the changes that have occurred in all aspects. They can only attribute it to the gap between the upper four cities and ordinary cities.

Those insightful people who want to change the current situation of their cities have gone to study and understand the changes in all aspects of Chishui City, and they feel that the gap between the two sides is growing.

"We want to change. How can we build a good city by following an insect like Kulu City!"

"Yes! We must also follow the development pace of Chishui City and carry out on-the-spot construction and reform!"

There are more or less various sounds in each city under the control of Kulu City. The closer the city is to Kulu City, the less noise there is, but after these sounds appear, it is difficult to disappear. of.

The small city farthest from Kulu City and bordering the actual control area of ​​Chishui City has already taken practical actions.

After their envoy group entered Chishui City, a group of diplomats who were not on the official list directly discussed multi-dimensional in-depth cooperation with Eddie.

In name, this is an in-depth cooperation, but in fact, it is preparing to leave Kulu City and join Chishui City.

"Our small place has been struggling for so many years with little opportunity for development. Now that we see Chishui City, we see hope. Mayor Eddie, please let us join the big family of Chishui City. We really want to make progress. ”

When the small city had the opportunity to get rid of Kulu City, it naturally came with full sincerity.

They felt that Chishui City was so big now that they might have the opportunity to change the structure of the upper four cities into the upper two cities. Since they would have mountains on their heads, why not pick two gentler mountains.

Kulu City's governance model and methods are the most brutal among the upper four cities. Direct use of force to suppress and assassinate assassins will make it difficult to win over the subordinates.

Eddie had dealt with a lot of things like the surrender of small cities during this period.

There is currently only one small city that is determined to rebel, but most of the small cities under the control of Kulu City have contacted Eddie and have shown varying degrees of cooperation.

Judging from the current situation, although Kulu City and Chishui City are both in the upper four cities, the actual control scope of both sides has not changed much.

But secretly, the situation has changed drastically. Kulu City has become a deaf and blind lone family. It can only guard its own base, and it is no longer possible to extend its influence to the outside world.

At the same time, diplomatic envoys from Cuijing City and Mangshan City also conducted many negotiations with Chishui City and conducted in-depth research on how to turn the Upper Four Cities into the Upper Two Cities.

Even though there is a contract with the Southwest Seventeen Cities Alliance in the southwest region, it is well known that contracts have always been used by the strong to restrain the weak. The strong can find various ways to avoid the punishment of the contract, and even directly tamper with the rules of the contract.

The contract of the Southwest Seventeen Cities Alliance has tightly bound small cities, but the benefits enjoyed by Chishui City and the obligations it needs to bear are completely different from those of small cities.

"Does Mr. Bell think it's time to turn Upper Four Cities into Upper Two Cities?"

"You can ask me this question. It seems like you are confident."

After Bell woke up from another deep sleep, Eddie talked about the current situation and brought it to Bell.

The time has come and we have now entered the late summer and early autumn season.

During the past few months of stability in the southwest region, all forces have accumulated strength and look like they may explode at any time.

The latest information came from Mangshan City. This city, which has been silently making a fortune, finally has the intention to take the initiative.

"Autumn is coming, and the Barbarian Empire in the northwest is ready to go south. Kulu City has to transfer most of its troops to the northwest to fight against the Barbarians. This is the best time to attack Kulu City." Southwest. The Seventeen Cities Alliance is not monolithic. Kulu City is the gateway to the entire southwest region and has been fighting tenaciously against the barbarians in the northwest region for thousands of years.

However, Mangshan City did not have a strong will to resist. On the contrary, they had mastered a secret trade route and had been conducting exchanges with the barbarians in various fields.

Even Mangshan City will sell some information about the southwest region to the barbarians, so that the barbarians can put enough pressure on Kulu City and prevent Kulu City from having the opportunity to pressure them, thereby reaping benefits.

"Joining Mangshan City, our two cities can completely separate some of their troops. While resisting Cuijing City, the main force will attack Kulu City, and cooperate with the barbarians going south to defeat Kulu City before winter."

Eddie put forward his own opinion, which is also the current mainstream opinion among decision-makers in the city.

If we really want to enter the rhythm of urban warfare, the strong men from Chishui City and Mangshan City will mobilize in full force, and they are fully capable of overwhelming Kulu City's defense forces.

On this stage where legendary powerhouses are the high-end combat power, Kulu City and Cuijing City, which have already lost legendary powerhouses in the past two years, are absolutely unable to compete with the combined efforts of Chishui City and Mangshan City.

It would be extremely easy to deal with Kulu City, which was known for its assassins, first, and then gather the strength to go back and crush Cuijing City.

"Using this plan to solve Kulu City and Cuijing City will give up part of the northern area to the barbarians, but for us, this is already a good business that makes a lot of money."

Bell analyzed Eddie's plan and found that the probability of success of this plan was extremely high, and the profit ratio was quite astonishing.

But Bell only has one question to say about this plan:
"We really captured Kulu City and Haocuijing City, and the pattern of the upper four cities changed to the upper two cities. What next?"

After the upper four cities become the upper two cities, what will happen next?

The name of the Southwest Seventeen Cities Alliance has been changed, but the inner part has not changed at all. The entire region is still in a state of overall self-governance. The cities cannot communicate with each other. If you want to flex your muscles, you will be constrained and have a headache.

As for the high-speed rail plan that Nabel wants to build the most, if his high-speed rail network can start from Chishui City and directly cover all cities in the southwest region, and be able to travel between two cities in the southwest region in one day, this will The productivity improvement and cohesion improvement it can bring are huge.

But now Bell's high-speed rail plan does not even cover the Chishui City area. Does Bell not want people to build high-speed rail that extends in all directions?
The surrounding forces have completely different views on high-speed rail. Most cities have no intention of building high-speed rail and refuse Bell to build high-speed rail in front of their doorsteps.

"Division is never a good state. The real strength is coming together."

Bell did not want to turn the Upper Four Cities into the Upper Two Cities, which would not bring about real changes in the region. He wanted to unify the entire southwest region.

"Let me see what Kulu City thinks. I think it's time for the southwest region to become a real country."

Bell said this, he flipped through the cooperation request sent by Kulu City, and prepared to break the situation from another angle.

Now the mainstream view in the entire southwest region is to turn the upper four cities into the upper two cities, whether it is Chishui City or Mangshan City, and the same is true for Kulu City.

Although they carried out a large-scale assassination against Chishui City some time ago and formed a lot of grudges with Chishui City, as a city dominated by assassins, this group of people's attitude towards hatred is quite unique.

Many times, Kulu City puts profit first.

They have become weak, and after the city's power has been largely weakened, it will be difficult to maintain the city's interests.

Most people in the southwest region know that Kulu City is about to face an attack by the barbarians from the north. It will be easiest to attack them in the next period of time. How can they not know it?
But Kulu City, which has become the weakest party, is not in a hurry. Sometimes, the party with the weakest paper strength will not become the loser. Even if it is not the final winner, many times it is a skill to not lose.

Kulu City gave up the communication between Mangshan City and Cuijing City. Cuijing City did not border Kulu City, and previous external military operations failed. It was basically impossible to seek help from this fellow sufferer.

Not to mention Mangshan City. This dormant city has now entered the stage of preparing to take action. Everyone knows that Sima Zhao is planning to attack Kulu City.

In the end, Kulu City placed its hope on Chishui City, which had caused them to lose troops and generals before, and offered its utmost sincerity.

They are willing to cooperate with Chishui City at the cost of the death of a legendary powerhouse.

This is an extremely terrifying courage. After all, a legendary strongman is the cornerstone of a city. In most cases, the death of a legendary strongman is a strategic loss.

As for the current Kulu City, those who are willing to sacrifice legendary powerhouses are just using it as a bait to seduce and paralyze Mangshan City.

"Staging a big drama with Kulu City, a big drama called siege of Kulu City, but actually killing Mangshan City."

Bell finalized the next basic steps and united with Kulu City to destroy Mangshan City and Cuijing City.

They really want to turn the upper four cities into the upper two cities, but the two missing cities are Mangshan City, which is currently quite strong, and Cuijing City, which is not geographically located and will most likely not be able to affect the battle situation in the north. .

After the destruction of these two cities, the mission of Kulu City should also end. The pattern of the previous two cities cannot continue to exist at this time, and they will also be banned.

"After ending the two upper four cities, there are absolutely not many strong men left in Kulu City to defend their city. Even if there are many strong men left, they can't make any waves with me here."

Bell was quite confident in his plan and contacted Chishui City. Kulu City, which was preparing to star in this big drama, most likely knew what his choice would eventually turn into.

But for Kulu City, this is already the best choice.

Their city didn't have many choices. It was forced to disintegrate, part of its territory became the land of barbarians, and part of its territory was divided up by other cities.

After losing his status as the top four cities, he was able to defend his territory and drag the other two cities down, and finally everyone returned to the same starting line.

Kulu City made its own choice, a choice that did not win but would not lose either.
