Doomsday Commander Chapter 182

  Chapter 182 The beginning of the territorial dispute

  The news that Zhuguang City began to set up checkpoints around the city spread to thousands of households through television.

  People in Chasing Light City were naturally rejoicing, because it was said on TV that after the safe zone is established, ordinary residents can also walk out of the city gate and go to the wild.

  The wilderness is now a world of adventurers and mercenaries. Regular troops are busy attacking counties, and those small towns and villages are their world.

  As for ordinary residents, it is very difficult to find or collect some supplies.

  Besides, although the city is good, people can't always stay in one place, going out is inevitable.

  So people in Chasing Light City are very happy, but others are not so happy.

  In Jinghe County, Liu Yibang also saw this news.

   Now that Li Wuyou has returned to the Yuanjing Palace, he is still in charge of all affairs here.

  Before Li Wuyou left, he also ordered Liu Yibang to establish a good relationship with Tang Zheng, and strive to draw him into the empire's camp as soon as possible.

  Liu Yibang originally wanted to find someone to inform Tang Zheng that if he was willing to join the empire, he could consider giving him the title of Viscount.

  But seeing this news, Liu Yibang didn't think so anymore.

  This Tang Zheng has great ambitions, it can be seen from the fact that he started enclosing the land, he is not satisfied with a corner in Chasing Light City.

   Moreover, he has also learned about the situation in Zhuguang City in the past few days. If he were Tang Zheng, the Earl would not want it, let alone the Viscount.

  He planned to use the viscount to win over Tang Zheng, but deep down he didn't want the other party to be in a high position.

  Although Tang Zheng ruined his own good deed unintentionally, it also made Liu Yibang instinctively unhappy.

   Moreover, he also learned about Tang Zheng's situation in the past few days, and he didn't expect that what he thought to be an old man or a middle-aged man turned out to be a handsome young man.

   Knowing Tang Zheng's family history again, Liu Yibang felt more and more that this guy is a talent, no, a genius.

  An ambitious genius, a born hero.

  After he reported the news about Zhuguangcheng and Tang Zheng to Li Wuyou in Yuanjing, the other party asked him to contact Tang Zheng as soon as possible. If possible, she planned to go to Zhuguangcheng before the Spring Festival.

  Liu Yibang still clearly remembered that Li Wuyou didn't say that before.

   What she said was, if possible, let Tang Zheng come to see her.

  How did she go to Chasing Light City now?

   At that time, if Tang Zheng really took refuge in the princess, and became a member of the empire, I am afraid that at least the Marquis started, and the Duke is not impossible at all.

  Thinking about Tang Zheng and Li Wuyou's appearance and age, Liu Yibang didn't send anyone to Zhuguang City.

  He also learned one thing, Tang Zheng is still single, surrounded by countless beauties, and still doesn't have any female companions in the true sense.

  It is too difficult to be able to do this in the last days, and he, Liu Yibang, is still single, because he has a higher pursuit.

   Li Wuyou, the princess of the empire, he must marry. Compared with Wanli Jiangshan, he would rather endure his own desires, but also achieve this highlight.

  But why did Tang Zheng do this?

   What does he want to do?

  Although there was no sign that Tang Zheng had the same ambition as himself, the man's intuition still made Liu Yibang wary.

  In an area, one shining star is enough, so now the plan to recruit Tang Zheng can be announced to stop.

  However, Liu Yibang does not intend to do nothing. As the commander of an army group and the lord of a big city, Liu Yibang has a very keen eye.

  He saw that Tang Zheng wanted to expand, but the Northern Region had some natural disadvantages.

  To the north, the farthest you can go is the edge of the Tongtian River. Crossing the river is the boundary of Daliao, and it cannot be expanded.

  The northeast is the Guyun Mountain area, which cannot be expanded.

   To the east is Hezhou. Hezhou has two big rivers passing through the city, and the main bridges are all in the urban area. As a natural barrier, it blocks the direct contact between its own Jing River and Zhuguang City.

  So Tang Zheng couldn't expand to this side, even if he thought about it, he couldn't get over it, so he could only send troops to gnaw at the tough bone of Hezhou.

   To the west is the endless desert of Mobei Province. Thinking about it, Tang Zheng will definitely not go there for the time being, and there is no practical significance.

  So Tang Zheng wants to expand big enough, there is only one choice, and that is to go south.

  Fengcheng and Qinzhou, these two populous cities, have unlimited resources and possibilities.

  Liu Yibang thought for a long time and made a decision.

  Since Tang Zheng doesn't want to expand, then he must be suppressed.

   Her Royal Highness the Princess is concerned about this matter, and it is definitely not possible to suppress it directly. Then he will suppress Tang Zheng's future development space, so that he cannot form a large scale in a short period of time.

  At least until he gets through to Hezhou, Tang Zheng absolutely can't continue to grow and develop, so let him hop around in the northern region.

   If you want to go south, that is absolutely impossible.

   After opening up Hezhou, his influence has directly expanded to the Northern Territory, and Tang Zheng can announce his dismissal.

  The strategy of Qinzhou and Fengcheng that has been in progress can be started ahead of schedule.

  After seeing the effectiveness of this kind of enclosure, Tang Zheng felt as if he had been beaten.

  This shows that in his current occupied area, the surrounding forces have no objection.

   This is also very normal. After all, there is no force in the Northern Territory that can compete with Tang Zheng, and he has not violated the interests of other survival bases. Of course, no one will rush to object.

Perhaps the empire will object, but the Fifth Army is currently 1,300 kilometers away in the Jinghe River, separated by the unavoidable natural barrier of Hezhou. Before taking Hezhou, the empire will not be able to interfere with itself action.

  The area of ​​500,000 square kilometers is certainly very large, but if you circle it piece by piece like this, there will be enough time after all.

  In the next few days, Tang Zheng continued to carry out this enclosure movement.

   Thirty checkpoints in a row were established by Tang Zheng, and the number of people in the city guard battalion also continued to increase.

  One checkpoint has sixteen people, thirty is 480 people, which is almost two companies.

  There are other bases, which were also sent by Tang Zheng to the troops of the City Guard Battalion.

  Among the twelve bases, the university city base still has a population of nearly 70,000, and the rest of the bases are between 20,000 and 50,000.

  In the university city base, Tang Zheng stationed a full-man company, and the rest of the bases were all a platoon.

  As for some of the original troops in these bases, they were all dismissed by Tang Zheng on the spot.

  Some people who were demobilized petitioned the local interior department, hoping to meet the general and let them continue to serve as soldiers.

  Tang Zheng didn't do everything right, he dispatched political officers and security officers to each base, and then selected some dismissed personnel, but the security officers at that time.

  The Minister of the Interior, the Director of the Public Security Department, and some of the following main officials of each base are all people from Tang Zheng's system, and it doesn't matter if the positions of ordinary office staff are handed over to survivors.

  With the continuous establishment of various checkpoints, Tang Zheng's road system in the northern region has become more and more perfect.

  Wanting to bypass the checkpoint, it became more and more difficult to take the path, and Tang Zheng's control area also became larger and larger.

   Nearly a week passed, and Tang Zheng finally completed the construction of the surrounding areas of Chasing Light City and the checkpoints around the Twelve Bases.

   At this time, the territory controlled by Tang Zheng in the system has reached 120,000 square kilometers!

  Nearly half of the three-way zone in the Northern Territory was controlled by Tang Zheng, and the rest were places where other survival bases existed.

  But Tang Zheng has done the calculations, even if this area is completely under control, it is still not enough for 500,000 square kilometers, so he still has to go outside if he wants to complete the task.

  North is one direction, Tang Zheng can even push his territory to Beifengdu on the bank of Tongtian River.

  However, some county towns in Lumbardy City are in this area, which is not considered a safe area.

  The scope of Tang Zheng's territory determined by the system not only needs to be recognized by other forces, but also must not have a large number of zombies. Human beings cannot move safely in this area, so it is still a territory.

   After capturing the two counties of Qingquan and Shuanglin, perhaps the territory can be expanded by tens of thousands of square kilometers, but it will be difficult to expand, because the space is so large.

   Tang Zheng has been thinking about this for the past few days. If he goes to the north, he cannot expand if he does not take down Lunba. To the northeast is Guyun Mountain, and he cannot expand.

  Going east, you will enter the boundary of Hezhou, Tang Zheng doesn't want to contact the empire too soon.

   To the west is Mobei Province. The desert is relatively easy to control, but the desolate and uninhabited place is useless for the time being.

   Do you want to go south, in the direction of Fengcheng?

Fengcheng is a bigger city than Lumbah and Hezhou, and there are more survivors in the surrounding area. Tang Zheng just passed through Fengcheng and came here, but he is not very clear about the specific situation of Fengcheng, after all There is still a distance of about 700 kilometers between the two.

  Besides, the apocalypse has been going on for so long, everyone's sphere of influence has been fixed, and entering the sphere of influence of other survival bases rashly will easily lead to war.

  If it was the first two months, Tang Zheng didn't care about this kind of thing, but the situation is different now, the empire has even resumed the operation of the TV station, and everyone has a certain degree of restraint in their actions.

  Although the empire is no longer as binding as it was before the end of the world, after all, we should be more careful and try not to be criticized by others.

  The empire has been established for hundreds of years, and it has been deeply rooted in the land of Hanyue and has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even now in Zhuguang City, many people are interested in the empire. It is too risky to directly confront the empire. Tang Zheng had to consider these issues.

   Just when Tang Zheng was thinking about these issues, a piece of news from Jinghe caught his attention.

  On the evening of November 10th, Jinghe news broadcast a shocking piece of content.

   "Reporting good news to everyone."

   "With the unremitting efforts of the Duke of the Empire and the commander of the Fifth Army, Mr. Liu Yibang, the Qinzhou Survivors Alliance accepted the imperial offer."

   "After the request of Duke Liu Yibang and the approval of His Royal Highness Princess Li Wuyou, Liao Yucheng, the leader of the Qinzhou Survivors Alliance, was appointed as the division commander of the Independent First Division of the Fifth Army, and was awarded the title of Marquis of the Empire."

   "The ministries of the Qinzhou Survivors Alliance have been integrated into the First Independent Division of the Group Army. The current troop size is 50,000."

   "In addition, the military headquarters of the group army are in contact with several major survival bases in Fengcheng, striving to bring Fengcheng back to the embrace of the empire as soon as possible."

"I hope that the survival bases in various places can take the initiative to move closer to the group army after seeing the news, and strive to establish an organized and orderly sphere of influence in the north-central and central-western regions of the empire as soon as possible, and jointly fight against the greatest enemy of our mankind, zombies, Restore the glory of the Empire."
