The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 739 I have a bigger idea (Dear readers, please subscribe!)
"Not only is the community well-preserved, but there are also many scattered vehicles. If we collect the fuel, it will be enough for our daily use..."

Huo Jingang was talking to himself, and Zhang Su did not interrupt him. These things were not critical, but it was clear that Huo Jingang had an attitude. After he finished speaking, he did not answer his question, but touched his chin and asked, "Where does Zhao Linfeng plan to migrate to, west?"

"Yes, he said before the split that Lu County is a good place to go. If that doesn't work out, go further west. At worst, he can join the Tangcheng Zhengdao Association. Does Chief Zhang know about this force?"

Zhang Su nodded: "I have heard the broadcast of the Zhengdao Association."

"Well, we have also received the news that the Zhengdao Association seems to be a large survivor camp, and Zhao Linfeng is very confident about that place."

"Hehe... this is a bit like a beggar complaining about his food being rotten. He has become a stray dog, but he still thinks that my Tianma Island is not high-class enough. He would rather go far away to find an unknown righteous society than come to me."

Zhang Su smiled with a strange expression.

This was the actual situation, and Huo Jingang could only shrug his shoulders along with Zhang Su.

"Old Huo, let me ask you, are those who followed Zhao Linfeng really willing to do so? Is it possible that they just admire Zhao Linfeng's strength and do not agree with Zhao Linfeng's decision, but only recognize the strength of the Iron Wall Security Battalion and are willing to follow a powerful person?"

Zhang Su asked the question that concerned him most.

Huo Jingang has more than 500 people on his side, which is not a small number, but what Zhang Su wants is the entire Southern Alliance, or at least the vast majority. If there must be a specific number, it would be one thousand people!

Loyalty, at this stage, is no longer the primary criterion, because when the Southern Alliance disappears, the entire Qin City will only have Tianma Island left, except for the unknown survivor camp in Lu County far to the west!

When an area is no longer divided by multiple forces and becomes unified, do we still need to worry about the issue of loyalty?
It cannot be said that it is completely unnecessary, but it is not that important.

Zhang Su really didn't believe that anyone could lead people to rebel under his nose. He was not bragging, if someone really could do it, perhaps it would be better for the rebel leader to take charge of Tianma Island!

Huo Jingang thought about Zhang Su's question very seriously. He was very clear about the deep logic behind this question. After thinking for about a minute, he said solemnly: "It is possible that some people are thinking of admiring the strong, accounting for about 40%. The other 60% are somewhat reluctant to join other camps and want to follow Zhao Linfeng to re-establish a safe camp."

"I understand their concerns. They are just afraid that they will be excluded and targeted when they come to Tianma Island. If they know that this phenomenon does not exist in Tianma Island and that Tianma Island treats every survivor who joins the camp equally, will they change their minds?"

Zhang Su felt that Huo Jingang spoke very thoughtfully. He must have been a person of status before the disaster broke out, perhaps like Lao Li, so he asked questions very clearly and directly.

"If we can convince them of this, I think 70% of the people around Zhao Linfeng will be willing to come to Tianma Island. But after all, there are some very loyal brothers who will not leave him. He has his own code of conduct and personal charm."

Huo Jingang gave the answer in his mind.

"Come on, Lao Huo, look at me."

Zhang Su suddenly took off his sunglasses and looked at Huo Jingang seriously with a serious expression.

There was no light in the car, but there was a high-wattage street lamp between the parking lot and Wangshan B&B. Huo Jingang could see Zhang Su's cheek clearly by the light.

Perhaps it was because the other person was wearing sunglasses and his eyes could not be seen, so at first glance he looked particularly dark and deep, as if he had some kind of magic.

"Promise that everything you said is true and you are not lying to me." Zhang Su said word by word.

Facing Zhang Su's gaze, Huo Jingang was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead. A sense of righteousness surged in his heart, and he nodded heavily: "Everything I said is true, including my subjective judgment. It is also the conclusion I came to after careful consideration!"

"Okay, you take a rest here."

Zhang Su put on his sunglasses, opened the car door and walked out, leaving Huo Jingang sitting in the car and thinking about the inexplicable emotions in his heart.

"Hey, Brother Su, how's it going?"

"The situation is very interesting. I'll be back in a bit. Please keep an eye on it."

Zhang Su patted Wang Xin on the shoulder, then walked straight towards Xiao Xingyun B&B, but did not return to the house.

Knock, knock. "Who is it?"

Zhang Su knocked on Yu Wen's door, and a cautious voice came from inside.

"It's me, Lao Yu. Open the door."

Zhang Su saw a faint light through the gap under the door and knew that Yu Wen was not asleep.

"Mr. Zhang?"

Yu Wen opened the door, pushed his glasses with some surprise, and quickly let the person in.

Before, the frequency band that Ma Changshou used to contact Zhang Su was only for the two of them. If Zhang Su was not there, it would usually be Zhong Xiaoshan or Zheng Xinyu who answered the call, and Yu Wen had no idea that there was a guest visiting at night.

When they first arrived at Tianma Island, Yu Wen and Yu Qing lived in the same house. Later, Yu Qing moved out and lived with Zhao Dezhu, and Teacher Yu was left alone. The house was still as big, but it seemed a bit empty without one person.

This was Zhang Su's second time to come to Yu Wen's house. The first time was the day he just arrived at Tianma Island and was assigned a house.

Seeing the paper and pen on the desk, he knew that Yu Wen was still writing a work report, so he took out a cigarette and handed it to him, and said straight to the point: "Huo Jingang is back."

pat...

Yu Wen dropped the cigarette he had just taken and quickly bent over to pick it up. He looked at Zhang Su in shock and asked, "How many people did you bring?"

He had expected a defection from the Confederacy, but he had not expected it to happen so soon.

"Only him!"

Zhang Su sat down on the chair in front of the desk, and then quickly and concisely repeated the news brought by Huo Jingang.

"Old Yu, what do you think about this?"

Zhang Su could make decisions on most major matters on his own, but for decisions of this magnitude, it would be a good idea to discuss it with others.

Yu Wen didn't expect that before going to bed, he would receive such thunder-like news. His tired eyes suddenly lit up and he clenched his fists and said, "Hurry up, where are they? We should go pick them up now. More than 500 people, wow, that's more than 500 people!"

Now, there are less than 800 people in the entire Tianma Island. With the joining of more than 500 and nearly 600 people, the population of the entire camp has a qualitative leap. Moreover, they have joined in the form of surrender, which will not be involved in too many conflicts of interest and disputes. The subsequent issues are very simple!
"Old Yu, aren't you being a little radical this time? Just seeing so many people coming, aren't you worried about the hidden danger?"

Zhang Su rarely saw Yu Wen being so aggressive.

Yu Wen picked up a wooden handle from the table, rubbing it while saying: "Mr. Zhang, things are different now. We assume that the news brought by Huo Jingang is true. Think about it, Zhao Linfeng led those 800 people to migrate westward, then the entire eastern part of Qincheng from south to north will only have Tianma Island left!

If the 500 people led by Huo Jingang don't join us, what will they do? Go south to bypass the zombies and go to the Caofei District of Tang City? Or... go to the sea. There is almost no way to go. If we don't accept them, they will be a hidden danger. It is better to recruit them into the camp openly!
Let's take a step back. If Huo Jingang's words are fake, then we have to doubt his purpose. If he is plotting to take over Tianma Island, then it would be a good idea to lure him into a trap!"

The population swelled from 200 to over 700, a three-fold increase. Yu Wen was worried, but this time the population increased from over 700 to 1,200, which was not even doubled, so he was not panicked at all!

Sometimes it’s the quantity that counts, and sometimes it’s the proportions that matter.

"I personally think that it is very likely that Huo Jingang came here sincerely to ask for help. His faction has been forced into a dead end. Mr. Zhang, although it seems hasty, this is a good opportunity!"

Yu Wen nodded heavily, confirming his statement.

After listening to Yu Wen's analysis, Zhang Su smiled and said thoughtfully: "I have some of the same ideas as you. If we let more than 500 of them wander around outside, there will be more problems. But I have a bigger idea!"
