: Section 281: Secrets of the Western Regions Empire

Wang Jingrong followed the guards to a separate house. At this time, there was a double post at the door of the house. Seeing Wang Jingrong's arrival, the guards saluted immediately. After Wang Jingrong returned the salute, he strode the door and entered, only to see a few lights in the house. Candles, the light is not bad, and there is a soldier standing with a gun on each side of the house, and in the center of the house, there are several chairs, and several people are tied to the chairs.
Wang Jingrong saw that these people were wearing military uniforms that he didn't know. Not only did they wear different clothes, but their appearance was also different from his own. They looked like Westerners, but they were different. , There is not as deep eye sockets as Europeans, and the nose is not as sharp. Wang Jingrong thought at first glance that they were from West Asia.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?" Wang Jingrong asked harshly.
These people looked at Wang Jingrong blankly, without saying a word.
"Don't test my patience, if you don't tell me honestly, I will kill people!" Wang Jingrong was still threatening.
Several people still looked at Wang Jingrong blankly without saying a word.
"Hemp, are these grandsons dumb?" Wang Jingrong asked the soldier when he turned his head.
"No, when we chased them, they also yelled a few words, but we didn't catch what they yelled." The soldier replied.
"That's good, talking is a good thing." Wang Jingrong said with a smile.
Wang Jingrong suddenly took out the pistol around his waist, pointed to a person's head and asked, "Should I tell you, maybe I've broken you!"
The man whose head was pointed at by the gun changed his expression and shouted indiscriminately: "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
When Wang Jingrong heard this, he cursed secretly: "No wonder these grandchildren don’t speak. It turns out that they don’t speak Chinese. This is a minority language in West Asia. If Lao Tzu had not performed missions in the northwest, he might have killed this group by mistake grandson!"
Find out why these people didn't talk, and other things would be easier. In fact, these guys were very afraid of death. Wang Jingrong only frightened them a bit, and they honestly confessed.
It turns out that these people are from the Western Regions Empire. They are robots accompanying the army and are responsible for maintaining those weapons and equipment. The zombies are too clumsy and it is difficult to even use weapons to target the basic tasks, so this complex machine Maintenance work can only be done by humans, and many magic arrays must be controlled by them, otherwise the magic array cannot be activated at all.
When the magic circle was activated, it was the grandsons who made it. Wang Jingrong almost took out his pistol and broke these guys in order to avenge the more than 1,000 soldiers who sacrificed. However, Wang Jingrong still held back. After all, more news could help him reduce more casualties, so Wang Jingrong temporarily endured it.
"Where did you get these magic artillery and crossbow arrow technology?" Wang Jingrong asked.
"These artillery designs were taken out by our imperial emperor, but the pattern seems to be made by our national division!" a captured soldier replied.
"National teacher? What national teacher?" Wang Jingrong asked.
"We have never seen this national teacher. We only know that he was brought by the Yellow Emperor from India. However, I heard a friend of mine say that he was fortunate to see this national teacher, who always used his cloak to shine. He, and his words are always eerie and terrifying, the most terrifying thing is his eyes, not human eyes, but hollow like holes, there seems to be a green flame flashing in the eyes. And this national teacher has a staff, There are rumors that this staff can call the wind and call the rain, and can make many people's lives dry instantly. In short, it is very powerful and terrifying." The soldier said.
When Wang Jingrong heard it, he was also confused. What kind of person would have fire in his eyes, or green flames, what kind of special effects glasses?
"What else do you know about that national teacher?" Wang Jingrong continued to ask.
"Also, it seems that our imperial emperor is very afraid of him. Every time he decides important matters, he must be present, and only with the consent of this national teacher, our emperor can give the final order, otherwise the national teacher does not agree, our emperor Will also veto these resolutions." The soldier said.
"Oh, he can only agree with your national teacher? Very interesting!" Wang Jingrong listened and wrote down this information deeply. Obviously this national teacher is definitely not simple.
"Then where are your weapons produced?" Wang Jingrong continued to ask.
"Our weapon production is in Urumqi, where the infrastructure is pretty good, and there is its own power plant, so our emperor ordered the army to transport all the machinery and equipment that can be searched to Urumqi, and then set up many factories there, and then there The production of weapons and equipment, these magic guns and ballistas, are all produced in those factories."
"Oh, it's so powerful, so soon I have produced weapons by myself! What kind of weapons are produced besides these magic guns and ballistas?" Wang Jingrong continued to ask.
"These cannons are the most basic weapons. Before we came out, we heard that more advanced magic cannons have been developed above, which not only have a longer range, but also have greater power. In addition, I also heard about the magic wheel Machine guns and airplanes are also in the development process. They said that it will not take long to complete the test, and then a large number of equipment will be shipped out of the factory." The soldier confessed.
Hearing this, Wang Jingrong immediately felt a lot of pressure. If these weapons were really made, the future battles would be difficult to fight. Now he has no threats in the air, and he can attack from the air wantonly. Zombies have planes, so they need to be very careful when attacking from the air. Then their own griffon and airship troops may lose their function, and the enemy’s artillery power and range will increase, so their own long-range attack advantage will also It doesn't exist anymore. When the time comes, the zombies can use their numbers and physical advantages to attack themselves in turn!
Thinking of this, Wang Jingrong felt a cold sweat, so Wang Jingrong briefly learned about the deployment and population of the Western Regions Empire, but in this regard, as technical arms, they don’t know much about it, only knowing that most people are reduced to Slaves were sent to work in various places. The vast majority of workers in those factories were slaves. These people had no rights and were not paid for their work. The only thing they had was to have three meals a day and work clothes to wear.
"Are these people working voluntarily? Are you not afraid that these people will eat for nothing and not work?" Wang Jingrong suddenly remembered the usual lazy workers in the factory.
"Lazy? No, absolutely not. There is monitoring in the factory. Those who dare to be lazy will not be given food for the light ones, and the severe ones will be executed by whipping in public. If they are executed twice, others will never dare to be executed again. I'm lazy." The soldier said.
Only then did Wang Jingrong understand that the textbooks he learned when he was in school and the descriptions of slaves living under slavery were not fictitious. It was just that it was the prosperous period before the end of the world, and it was only a few years in the end. This barbaric system, He was resurrected in front of his own eyes.
Wang Jingrong did not ask too much. He must sort out the factory information and send it to Li Yuanhong as soon as possible, so that Li Yuanhong can make a decision as soon as possible on how to eliminate this hidden danger.
So Wang Jingrong strode out of the switch room and sent additional manpower to guard these Western Empire technical soldiers more closely to prevent the remaining enemies in the city from coming to grab people. However, it was later confirmed that Wang Jingrong's worries were unnecessary. Because then the soldiers caught a few waves of soldiers who were about to escape from the city. These soldiers of the Western Empire only thought about how to escape, but didn't even think about how to save others. At this time, they are still in charge of others. Life and death.
Wang Jingrong went directly to the telecommunication room and directly reported the news he had received to Li Yuanhong. Then Wang Jingrong sat in the telecommunication room and waited for Li Yuanhong's reply. About half an hour later, Li Yuanhong responded, and then Wang Jingrong continued. Interrogating, trying to dig out all the information related to the factory, Li Yuanhong didn't quite believe that it was impossible for the Western Region Empire to put all the eggs in one basket.
After Li Yuanhong reminded him, Wang Jingrong also felt that the soldiers did not fully tell the truth, so Wang Jingrong told the guards that if there were any new soldiers caught, they would be detained alone. Wang Jingrong planned to interrogate them separately. See if the confessions of these people are the same, and then extract some new information.
The newly arrested soldiers were arraigned by Wang Jingrong the next day. These soldiers are also of the West Asian race. These people have taken refuge in the emperor of the Western Empire in Afghanistan. To be honest, before the end of the world, Afghanistan was impoverished due to years of fighting. If it hadn’t been for their warlords to try to grow opium and tablets to make money, it is estimated that their own country would almost have no money to buy bullets in wars. This would cause most people in this country to starve to death directly after the end of the world, instead of being killed by zombies. .
Therefore, when the emperor of the Western Regions promised them that they could eat and wear warmth, these people had no resistance to take refuge in the emperor of the Western Regions, and had never thought about how this emperor would not be attacked by zombies. Moreover, they were favored by the emperors of the Western Regions because of their years of civil war. Everyone knew about weapons. According to their own words, they could assemble the gun even with their eyes closed. Even some handy ones, give him a hand. Hammer and saw can knock you out a gun.
Such a loyal and skilled follower would naturally not let this imperial emperor let it go, so the backbone of the empire were not Chinese, but these Afghans, and the Chinese, the vast majority, were slaves. Perhaps this is the revenge of the military commander Chen, but no one knows the specific reason.
There is also news that Wang Jingrong is very concerned about. Although there is a factory in Urumqi, the other soldiers know nothing about the specific production. In other words, only the first soldier to be interrogated knows the specific content, so Wang Jing Rong decided to swindle the soldier again.
In the evening of the next day, the soldier was taken out of the room alone and came to another room. There was a large chair in this room with many circuits on the chair and a helmet on the chair. The soldier was taken into custody. When entering the door, a soldier who had turned black was just dragged out.
The soldier was still a little puzzled when he saw the blackened soldier. He couldn't help but glanced at it a few more times. After seeing this, he realized that the soldier knew him and was a fellow villager who came with him. His complexion was jet-black, his hair was erect, and his human form was completely lost.
The soldier was pushed into the house and tied to a chair, and then Wang Jingrong walked in: "Do you know what kind of chair this is?" Wang Jingrong said in a cold voice.
"No... I don't know!" The soldier replied with a trembling voice, and he had a somewhat vague premonition.
