Resurrection Empire-Chapter 907 - 348: Steel Torrent (Part 3)

Liang Qifa angrily pointed at a Fourth Level Gunsmith hiding nearby in the shadows.

The person's lips trembled but dared not speak.

"You all have your own equipment and skills. When you were suffering in other towns or wild tribes, you knew there was no future without fighting. Now that you've reached our territory and witnessed Ren Zhong's equitable compassion, do you really think your lives are more precious? Isn't the heart made of flesh? Aren't you ashamed?"

"Don't think that after we're all dead, this town will fall into your hands. Or that the Mayor of Chromium Carbon Town can do anything. You don't understand Ren Zhong. Although he's merciful and kind, he clearly distinguishes between rewards and punishments. You've never seen him kill citizens. Frankly, if all the natives die in battle and you're unharmed, even if the Seven Towns Alliance takes this place, he will level it to the ground."

"Our reinforcements have already set off and will arrive within half a day at the latest. By then, Ren Zhong will know what has happened in the town, and those who shrink back in fear before the battle will be executed without mercy! Don't expect to score points by performing before him; no one can play tricks before Ren Zhong."

"Though I, Liang Qifa, am not a Professional, I will return to the city wall, sticking to my death without retreat. I've made myself clear; make your own choice. Suit yourselves!"

"Oh, by the way, let me tell you one more thing. Based on our interrogation of captured prisoners, all individuals in the Seven Towns Alliance Army are implanted with remote-controlled bombs. That's why this forcibly conscripted motley army dares not fear death. Even though more than twenty thousand have died, they still keep charging forward. Check your conscience, consider your treatment, see how I trust you. Has the Ren Group ever mistreated you? Farewell!"

After saying that, Liang Qifa truly walked away.

Liang Qifa, although a First Rank wild man, was greatly valued by Yang Bingzhong, undertaking most daily chores of Starfire Resources back then. After turning to Ren Zhong, he's never made mistakes and arranged everything orderly and appropriately, indeed showcasing some skills.

His speech skillfully mixed kindness and threat, vividly hitting the soft spot in the hearts of the opinion leaders among these outsiders.

The crowd exchanged looks for a long time, remaining silent.

Finally, the Fifth Level Mechanical Warrior with an injured shoulder firmly slapped his subordinate's head, "Get moving quickly! I'm heading out to fight! I'm a damn man, after all, shouldn't let myself be entangled here by you guys."

After saying that, the Mechanical Warrior glanced at the allies huddled together gloomily on the other side.

This group was the main proposers of hiding here until the war ended, also known as the wavering faction.

He coughed loudly, then spat a glob of saliva off to the side, "Manager Liang is right. The old residents in the town are fighting desperately not just for themselves, but also for the family and friends we've brought. I can't stand watching this anymore."

On the other side, a Fifth Level Demolition Master, a lithe lady, also stood up, softly said, "Everyone, times have changed. We are now under Ren Zhong's command; we can no longer live with selfish thoughts. When Ren Zhong came to inspect here, he had met me. Previously, when I interacted with other high-ranking citizens, almost everyone wanted to strip my clothes right away. But he merely praised me, saying that although I am born a wild man, I am hardworking and ambitious. He also gave me a brand new Level Six gloves. These days, which one of you hasn't gone to Manager Liang to collect equipment? When you took the equipment back then, you solemnly promised to give your best to Ren Zhong. Now, when it's truly time to risk your life, why have you broken your words? How is this any different from those scum citizens who only make empty promises? I've been slept with by so many citizens, have I had a good life? Coming to Chromium Carbon Town, I damn know what life is! Though I have only an outdated micro brigade, today I'm truly going to fight!"

After saying this, the lady first pushed the door open and walked out.

"Actually, we made a mistake. We didn't get the key point." A core figure among the outsider wavering faction lightly coughed.

Others watched the lady's back while also looking at this person.

"What mistake?"

"What is the key point?"

Everybody asked one after another.

"Manager Liang has made it very clear, Ren Zhong will never give up on Chromium Carbon Town. Even if the Seven Towns Alliance unites together, they are actually no match for Ren Zhong. No matter how today's battle goes, Chromium Carbon Town will eventually belong to Ren Zhong. Therefore, whether it's for others or for ourselves, everyone... let's fight."

Ten minutes later, as the news spread, all outsiders finally mobilized. More and more Professionals with their respective weapons rushed out from their hiding places.

With the Special Forces under Ou Youning continually achieving victories, coupled with the outsiders who truly exerted themselves, the situation within the city changed once more.

The Seven Towns Alliance Army that breached the city quickly suffered losses, and the front line began to push back outward again.

After a half-hour of see-saw fighting, the Alliance Army was eventually forced out of the city walls, entering a stalemate phase, both sides started applying attrition tactics, engaging continuously.

As hours passed, moving into evening.

At Wangdong Town, Ren Zhonggao, who just woke up, stood atop the Town Government Tower, gazing out to the city wall distance.

Over there, hundreds of vehicles resembling mammoth giants, with their hulls supporting warship turret-like gun barrels, were rapidly assembling.

These vehicles came from Starfire Town and had just stabilized.

The engineering personnel of Starfire Five Route Army within Wangdong Town were bustling like ants among the convoy arrays, refueling, reloading, and carrying out urgent checks and verifications for these vehicles.

At the parking lot square in the town, the elite troops of the Thirty Thousand Five Route Army were seated on the ground.

Yuan Qinh stood on a high platform, explaining the operational guidelines of the new type of combat vehicles to these warriors through projectors.

Ten more minutes passed.

Yuan Qinh finally waved his hand, "Move out!"
