Chapter 264: 【Republic: Three Steps to Suppress Bandits】(4.1k)

At this time.

In the live stream room of the Polaris official website.

Through the bandit suppression in the plot, many Blue Star players have figured out the general process.

Now they are all watching the work after bandit suppression to see if it is thorough.

After all, this is a problem that has plagued the 【Huaxia】 land for thousands of years.

According to the plot at the beginning.

The bandit suppression process on the Republic side, after being organized by Blue Star players, is roughly divided into three steps.

First is to concentrate forces to hit the most chaotic Southwest region and Central-South region.

Surround these places of bandits tightly.

This step.

The Republic mobilized a total of more than 1.5 million elite troops, equivalent to 39 armies to encircle and suppress these bandits.

With the momentum of crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.

Directly crushed those large-scale bandit nests gathered together.

In a very short time.

They destroyed many large-scale, concentrated bandits, directly smashing the bandit nests that were originally deeply rooted.

Those bandits turned into fragments and dispersed.

Some hid in deep mountains and old forests, some mixed into the common people; at this step, the bandit problem still existed and was not thoroughly solved.

Many Blue Star players are very familiar with this step.

Because the plot at the very beginning was.

What interests Blue Star players is the clearing in other regions, how to eliminate these remnants.

In the Southwest region, Central-South region.

These regions with serious banditry were still conducting heavy hammer strikes.

And in some regions with fewer bandits.

With the suppression of large-scale bandits, the remaining small-scale bandits dispersed and hid.

In order to be more detailed and thorough in clearing these tumors, the Republic's troops were actually dividing and contracting by area.

No longer concentrating forces on a large scale.

Instead, they dispersed the troops to each county, district, township, etc., with each company or battalion-level troop assigned an area.

Until all areas were assigned.

All troops began to comb through every piece of land in their assigned area like a comb.

This method made Blue Star players dumbfounded.

They thought about it, and even discussed various methods.

Just didn't expect the Republic to choose such a "stupid method," the simplest and most direct screening.

Each troop is assigned an area.

Screening over and over again.

Once is not enough, then twice, three times, until after several times, no trace of bandits is found, they will stop.

This method.

Although simple and crude, it is very effective.

The only trouble might be time-consuming and labor-intensive.

But compared to banditry, what is time-consuming and labor-intensive?

If banditry could be suppressed just by being time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Then in the history of 【Huaxia】, I don't know how many emperors wanted to do this.

Because once this succeeds.

That is a great achievement that will be passed down through the ages.

But no one has this national strength.

Mobilizing 1.5 million troops just to suppress bandits.

Looking at the history of 【Huaxia】, no one can do this.

Because what is paid is far more than the return.

So no matter how much they want to suppress banditry, reason will persuade them that the gain is not worth the loss.

But who would have thought.

The Republic did just that, and not only did it, but it also uprooted the foundation on which the bandits relied for survival.

After screening.

Not only in military aspects, like plowing the courtyard and sweeping the cave, clearing small-scale bandits.

In various townships and villages.

There were also unknown numbers of propaganda personnel, using the simplest plain language to tell the masses and hidden bandits:

"The chief culprit must be handled, the coerced will not be questioned, and those who perform meritorious service will be rewarded."

Dividing and disintegrating the interior of the bandits.

Very simple slogan.

The chief culprit must be handled; one sentence can make many bandits waver.

Because there is only one leader.

As long as the leader is handled, they can turn over a new leaf, and even be rewarded for meritorious service.

Such temptation is a new way out for many bandits.

Not only encouraging the masses to report, encouraging bandits to surrender, the Liberation Army also organized and established militia organizations in various townships and villages.

Letting the common people also participate in standing guard and providing intelligence.

Until all bandits are cleared, there can be no relaxation for a moment.

Let those bandits have no place to hide anymore.

Immediately followed by eliminating the most deeply hidden remnants, landlords, and bullies; these forces might look unrelated to bandits, but in reality, they are inextricably linked.

Through continuous propaganda and suppression.

Many common people trusted them completely and spontaneously carried out reporting and exposure.

Digging out some deeply hidden roots of trouble.

After these steps.

In some regions with fewer bandits, the number of bandits is decreasing rapidly.

It can be seen from the map data in the Polaris official live stream room.

Some regions only have 20,000 bandits.

But under the Republic's suppression, the number of bandits quickly dropped to a few thousand, and it is still decreasing by dozens or hundreds every day.

Obviously, in these places where the number of bandits is small.

Under such strikes.

It is estimated that it won't be long before it is cleaned up.

The main thing is.

This series of methods by the Liberation Army has thoroughly uprooted the bandits.

They also organized townships and villages everywhere and started militias.

Even if there are ten or twenty people later, I'm afraid the Liberation Army doesn't need to be dispatched; the young and strong in each village can solve them.

Because the courage has already been practiced.

People in the past didn't know how to resist, or didn't dare to resist because of fear.

But now with the Liberation Army behind them as a backing.

Those bandits can no longer scare them.

Fang Ming watched for a while and had a rough understanding of the Liberation Army's bandit suppression.

A few days ago, he only saw the Liberation Army strike with heavy fists.

Smashing large bandit nests.

Now watching the subsequent regional clearing, as well as deep-seated clearing, thoroughly digging out the social foundation on which bandits rely for survival, he couldn't help but admire the courage of the Liberation Army and the Republic.

After all, letting the masses arm themselves.

This matter.

How many dare to do it?

But in order to clear the banditry that has lasted for thousands of years, the Republic really did just that.

The Liberation Army united with local people.

Thoroughly eradicating the foundation on which bandits rely for survival; local people in the past didn't understand or were afraid, but now they can also pick up weapons to resist.

And when the people know how to resist, where is there any room for bandits to survive?

Although the bandit suppression at this time has just begun.

But through these places, one can see a glimpse; this banditry can definitely be thoroughly eradicated.

After understanding the Liberation Army's methods.

Fang Ming went to Polaris's forum to stroll around.

At this time.

The plot in the 【Bandit Suppression Record】 DLC is proceeding in an orderly manner.

And many Blue Star players.

Started discussions on offensive and defensive battles according to some powerful bandits in the game.

Especially those with dangerous terrain that are difficult to capture.

They were even ranked by Blue Star netizens in the forum.

Fang Ming clicked in, wanting to see what was so difficult about these bandits, but just seeing the terrain occupied by the number one bandit nest made him unable to hold back.

"Holy crap?"

"What ghost is this?"

"This terrain, is it too outrageous?"

Fang Ming was dumbfounded.

The number one that came into view was called Bamian Mountain.

What kind of mountain is this?

Isn't this a natural fortress?

I saw that Bamian Mountain lived up to its name, with eight almost vertical cliffs rising from the ground, and above it was a flat plain.

What's even more outrageous is that clouds and mist were actually winding around the mountainside.

Compared to other small mountains that only reached the height of the root of Bamian Mountain, one can imagine how high this Bamian Mountain is; wanting to enter from other directions is simply impossible.

There is only one mountain road that can go up.

If the bandits above hold this place, I'm afraid it would cost a great price to attack.

Before, Fang Ming didn't take it seriously.

Thinking how dangerous can a bandit nest be? And specifically make a ranking?

But now after seeing it...

Fang Ming can only say.

Reasonable.

Many Blue Star friends in the live stream room were also confused:

【Is this something a human can take down?】

【Holy crap, this height, you can't even climb up from the cliff.】

【That's right, this height is at least 1500 meters.】

【Even special forces can't go up this way.】

【More than 1500, I checked the data, it's more than 1800 meters.】

This is true, and the Blue Star players in the live stream room didn't refute it.

After all, they haven't been special forces before.

In the 【World War II】 series, or during the 【Republic of China】 anti-Japanese war period, they haven't done less of this kind of flying over walls, surprise attacks.

But...

That kind of cliff, at most tens of meters, at most hundreds of meters.

Climb a bit and you're up.

What is this?

This is more than 1800 meters.

Not to mention whether you can climb up, even if you climb up, I'm afraid you won't have the strength to suppress bandits.

Your arms will be dragged to explosion.

The forum is also discussing heatedly.

Because all around is heaven, it's almost impossible to climb up from below, and the only few paths leading to the top of Bamian Mountain are only one meter wide.

And this one-meter-wide ladder is not a straight line, but winding up.

A moment of carelessness and stepping on empty air could fall off the cliff.

In such a situation, how should one attack into Bamian Mountain and eliminate those bandits?

After all, looking at the Polaris official live stream at this time.

There are quite a few bandits in the Bamian Mountain region, and they are even divided into different groups of bandits, all entrenched on Bamian Mountain.

Looking at this terrain.

The Blue Star netizens in the live stream room also feel outrageous.

This situation.

Not to mention it's hard to go up the mountain.

It's also hard to go down the mountain.

These bandits really don't mind the trouble.

Think about it.

Every time they go down the mountain to plunder, they have to wind up when they come back.

Bamian Mountain, which is more than 1800 meters above sea level, if they don't plunder enough supplies on this trip.

It might not be enough for the consumption of a round trip.

Even after the forum players investigated, they supplemented more detailed data.

Compared to other regions.

Most are bandit and bully forces planned and disguised by the blue side, the banditry in Xiangxi here has been passed down since ancient times.

In other words.

Hundreds of years ago, this was the old nest of bandits.

It can be said that the bandits here.

Are the most ferocious and purest bandits passed down since ancient times in 【Huaxia】.

The degree of ferocity can naturally be imagined.

Key is there is also the old nest of Bamian Mountain that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

Regardless of how many died in these hundreds of years, and how many new bandits came, these bandits have always been developing Bamian Mountain, which is easy to defend and hard to attack.

Not to mention this natural fortress terrain.

Blue Star players created this kind of map in custom mode according to the terrain and some known data, and conducted simulated offensive and defensive battles.

For a time, quite a few people challenged it.

However, some players found that the roads up the mountain are not just those few.

It's just because those few are a bit wider, so the bandits use them often, so it looks like just those few roads.

In fact.

If you look for them in these deep mountains, you can find many small roads up the mountain from the thorns.

It's just that these small roads can only be taken by personnel lightly.

Some are even a bit stronger, fatter, and can't pass.

And in many villages under the mountain.

Some villagers also know some unknown secret paths.

But Blue Star players tried it.

No one dared to say.

After all, they are all individual players; how can they get results by asking?

In case they are discovered going up the mountain.

And provoke the bandits.

And ask who they knew the road from, I'm afraid it will directly implicate the whole village to suffer.

So even if Blue Star players visit those old hunters and old villagers, they can only get a few words.

Perhaps only when the Liberation Army presses the border, and they have sufficient sense of security, will the people in these villages dare to speak out.

Although secret paths, bandit defense, and these information can't be asked.

But some information about water sources and the like.

Can still be asked a little.

It's just that using this information, there is no way to conquer Bamian Mountain.

Some Blue Star players are already impatient.

They created some troops from 【World War II】 in custom mode, or imperial elites, wanting to try to attack Bamian Mountain.

But they all suffered major blows.

After all, there are only those few roads up the mountain, and the bandits lock them up; attacking is equivalent to a living target.

Not only that.

Blue Star players also found that these bandits are simply too ancient.

When attacking.

Not only will they suffer long-distance attack methods like rolling logs and rolling stones.

There is also fire attack with bows and arrows.

If it weren't for the machine gun and rifle shooting, Blue Star players would have thought they were in the ancient times of the 【Huaxia】 series, attacking a bandit stronghold.

Although these methods are ancient.

But the bandits guard the key points of the mountain road, that mountain road more than a meter wide, there is no place to hide, leading to Blue Star players having no good way.

Unless storming.

But the loss is too great.

On the other side.

Polaris Company Headquarters.

In the president's office.

Zhao Ming was watching the battles organized by the six major federations in 【2022】, while flipping through the game forum.

He also felt a bit surprised that Blue Star players challenged Bamian Mountain.

After all, it was a standard data setting, didn't expect Bamian Mountain to attract so many people to challenge.

Zhao Ming simply released all the bandit data on Bamian Mountain.

This makes it easier for those Blue Star players to render.

Subsequently.

Zhao Ming's gaze looked at the projection in the 【2022】 plot.

The federations that purchased the agency rights have already sent their troops into the game.

At this time, they have already become familiar with their locations and have also received new tasks.

Looking from Zhao Ming's god's-eye view, the major federations are about to collide, but because some hidden materials were added when setting the plot.

So it's not just the collision of the six major Blue Star federations, but also collisions with Earth NPCs.

For example, the troops of the Free Star Cluster Federation are about to bump into the local "Russian Federation" troops on Earth.

The special warfare brigade of the Daxia Federation is about to bump into the armored special warfare brigade of the Antarctic Star Cluster Federation.

There are clashes between the six major federations on the Blue Star side, as well as clashes between the six major federations of the Blue Star and the "indigenous" troops.
