The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 733: Leaving safely is the ultimate goal

After Zhao Linfeng showed off his muscles, the team entered the final stage. The process was not long and it took only ten minutes to complete the division.

I thought that the Iron Wall Security Battalion would show off their muscles and the situation would be one-sided, but the final result surprised everyone...

More than six hundred people stood beside Huo Jingang, and including the tardigrades themselves, there were about seven hundred people.

Coincidentally, the number of survivors who chose to follow Zhao Linfeng was only about a hundred more, or about eight hundred.

The two sides have similar population sizes, but different composition structures.

It can be seen with the naked eye that the proportion of the elderly, the weak, women and children on Huo Jingang's side is very high. Correspondingly, the combatants behind Zhao Linfeng are more abundant.

The original Southern Alliance had a total of nearly 400 combatants, and at this moment, there were 300 of them following Zhao Linfeng, while Huo Jingang had less than 100 combatants, a huge difference in numbers.

This is a very natural and human choice.

Strong fighters are willing to use their abilities to create a sky of their own, while ordinary survivors with little combat power prefer a stable living environment. Compared to migrating towards the unknown, it is far better to choose an environment that is within reach and settle down.

The emergence of war zombies further promoted this phenomenon.

Clues could be seen from the eyes of the people at the scene. Most of the elderly, the weak, women and children looked at the corpses with fear and avoidance, and stayed away from them as much as possible.

On the other hand, the fighters standing next to Zhao Linfeng all had fiery eyes, with a more or less hint of fanaticism, which was the natural worship of power in human nature.

Through this team-up, almost everyone in the camp was divided into two factions. It was not that all members would follow the boss. The majority of people had independent thinking abilities.

There are four camp leaders on Huo Jingang's side. Besides him, there are Liu Shanshan of Shadow, Lu Da Huzi of Iron Guard, and finally Su Yanxing of Awakening.

Of the eleven people who had gone to Tianma Island for help before, excluding Huo Jingang, seven chose to go north to cooperate with Tianma Island.

On the contrary, in addition to Zhao Linfeng himself, he was also surrounded by four former leaders and a group of elite fighters.

"Brother Huo, is this scene what you wanted?"

Zhao Linfeng looked at the clearly divided crowd, helplessness showing on his face. He was not happy at all because this result was not what he wanted.

"I hope everyone is safe!" Huo Jingang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhao, thank you for giving everyone a chance to choose. You are an open-minded leader. I believe you can lead everyone to a brilliant future."

"No more words to say. We are all destined to be together. Now that we have chosen the direction for the future, we should not regret it! So now we have encountered the first problem. How should the supplies be distributed?"

Zhao Linfeng spread his arms and looked towards Huo Jingang. Behind him, there were elite soldiers with passionate eyes, some holding various cold weapons, some holding hot weapons. Although they were silent, they were full of deterrence.

The first conflict arises after choosing sides.

The difference in numbers and the disparity in strength will become the key factors affecting resource allocation. This is also the biggest crisis after the alliance splits!
If not handled properly, it is likely to cause conflict.

Several leaders on Huo Jingang's side looked at each other and saw a solemn look in each other's eyes.

Not only were the top executives nervous, but no one else was immune to the situation, with everyone having more or less trepidation on their face.

"Brother Zhao, please allow us to discuss this."

No matter how chaotic the scene was or how tense the situation was, Huo Jingang tried his best to control the situation at his own pace.

"can."

Zhao Linfeng behaved very magnanimously. He did not give up until the last moment and wanted to use various non-violent means to attract more people to his side.

"Old Huo, things have come to this point. We are currently at a complete disadvantage. What should we do?" Big Beard Lu narrowed his copper-bell-like eyes and glanced in the direction of Zhao Linfeng.

Liu Shanshan placed one hand on the hilt of the sword, with a troubled look on her face.

Su Yanxing snapped his fingers, pouted at Zhao Linfeng, and said nonchalantly: "Why not let him answer the questions he raised."

Huo Jingang waved his hands and said, "We can't let him speak. That way there will be little room for bargaining! The number of combatants determines the proportion of material distribution. If we want to resolve the issue peacefully and gain as much benefit as possible, we must make concessions!"

"Brother Huo, what do you think?"

Liu Shanshan asked softly.

"one tenth."

Huo Jingang said in a voice that only they could hear.

Upon hearing this answer, Lu Da Huzi and the others all frowned.

"We have fewer fighters than them, but it's not nine times as much!"

"Will we appear too weak and make the other side think we are easy to bully?"

"I don't think it's necessary to be so humble..."

The three of them disagreed with Huo Jingang's proposal. Regardless of the number of people or strength, they should not be given only one-tenth of the resources.

Huo Jingang patiently explained, "Do you think Zhao Linfeng is very generous today and shows a compromising attitude at all times? Do you think he has become easier to talk to? In fact, this is all his performance to win people's hearts!
There is nothing wrong in winning people's hearts, but now that we know this, we must make one thing clear: resources are an important part of winning people's hearts. He will not give in easily. Before, everyone did not choose to stand on the side, and he did not have much confidence. Now he is confident!
In other words, even if Zhao Linfeng still wanted to be generous and modest, the people around him would not want to do so. Being able to take away one-tenth of the supplies was already the limit, and leaving safely was the ultimate goal. Everyone, don't be impulsive!"

Don't be impulsive, this is mainly said to Lu Da Hu Zi.

"You're thinking too much. I can't think of it. Okay, Lao Huo, if you think it's okay, then do as you say."

"Then leave it to Brother Huo."

This is the consequence of being outnumbered. The three men were also people with vision. After understanding the situation clearly, they did not get entangled and let Huo Jingang negotiate with Zhao Linfeng.

"Brother Zhao, we have discussed it!"

Huo Jingang walked to the front of the crowd with a calm look on his face, and said as naturally as possible: "From the perspective of numbers, the number of brothers behind you and me is about the same, but you have more combatants than me, and the food consumption will be greater. Our demands are not high, and it is reasonable to take 30% of the alliance's supplies."

In this set of words, I first made the objective factors clear, saying that the number of people on both sides was similar, and then I pointed out the other party's advantages, meaning that I could see the reality clearly. Finally, I made concessions, gave the other party enough face, and at the same time left room for the other party to bargain.

Huo Jingang's words made Lu Da Huzi and the other two nod their heads secretly. The fact that the water bears were able to gain a foothold in Beihe District with only a few dozen people was largely due to the boss's level.

"Cough cough!"

Zhao Linfeng coughed. He thought that Huo Jingang might ask for an equal share because there were similar numbers of people, and then they would bargain and pull each other. He didn't expect that he would give a gift as soon as he came up.

"You're right. Combatants consume more energy. One person eats as much as ten children. It's reasonable for me to take more supplies, but I think the 30-70 split is not enough! I have three times as many brothers fighting zombies as you, so why are the supplies only a little more than twice as much?"

"That makes sense. Then divide the supplies into four portions and we only take one!"

Huo Jingang gave in immediately, and his attitude was very sincere.

The four leaders behind Zhao Linfeng trembled. If it were them, they really couldn't bring themselves to continue bargaining. But Zhao Linfeng was different. His position, his temper, and his personality caused him to further occupy more!
"It can be seen that Brother Huo is very sincere. We were able to come together in the end times because of fate. Let's part ways in peace! In this way, you can take away 20% of the supplies, but not weapons. You can only take away the weapons you are carrying now. In addition, the car also counts as a weapon!"
