Sun Miao told Ren Zhong that the two hundred million people in the Underground City have all been forced to accept the transformation of the Tree Project.
Close to fifty million people died during the transformation, and the remaining one hundred fifty million made it through.
As of now, the "pseudo-network" of the Ren Group has essentially beco the first superbrain of Source Star, capable of providing enormous computing power, but Hua Yuelan reported that this computing power was still far from enough.
Sun Miao, with a complex mood, told Ren Zhong that they must find a way to gather more people.
After careful consideration, Ren Zhong decided to make a change.
He summoned the couple, Yujin and Hu Yang, to his office.
Yujin had grown up and was no longer the oblivious young man he once was. His body had beco strong, his expression was stern, and his facial contours carried a sharp, murderous aura. The only resemblance to the past was his unabashed admiration when looking at Ren Zhong.
Hu Yang had also transford from the gaunt appearance three years ago into soone both graceful and spirited, resembling both a well-bred lady and a valiant warrior.
Ren Zhong was very pleased with their union.
He looked at the two standing rigidly and pointed to the sofa beside them, "Sit down and let's talk."
Hu Yang was still a bit reserved, first exchanging glances with Yujin before sitting down with him.
Ren Zhong picked up a pen and scribbled on paper for so ti before handing the note to the two.
After Yujin and Hu Yang read the note, they nodded in unison, indicating their understanding, and then left.
Two hours later, Yujin and Hu Yang left the combat sequence and organized a special task force with a scale of one thousand people.
The main task of this task force was managing prisoners.
Previously, neither side engaged in capturing prisoners. Those caught were generally executed on the spot, their brains handed over to the Hunters, and their bodies frozen and secretly sent to ngdu City.
Now, Ren Zhong had changed his strategy; he planned to secretly intercept half the prisoners and send them to the Underground City of the Ren Group, while only sending half to the ngdu Group.
Li Yang on the Source Star Military Industry side barely had three "eyes," naly Ying Hao, Ren Zhong, and the specially tasked ssenger Armored Soldier.
In a sense, Li Yang had already thoroughly controlled the Source Star Military Industry and did not need to waste precious "friend" slots here.
Thus, there was essentially no risk of Ren Zhong's small maneuver being exposed.
In the following ten days, Yujin and Hu Yang sent over a million prisoners to Sun Miao every day on average.
This number didn't et Sun Miao's expectations, but it was better than nothing and provided so help.
Furthermore, a significant incident occurred during the prisoner operation.
One group of prisoners beca restless, secretly contacting the main force of the ngdu Group. The Commander of the ngdu Group captured this information and secretly gathered tens of thousands of elite troops, setting an inescapable net to ambush Yujin and Hu Yang's transport team.
Yujin and Hu Yang led the thousand-mber special task force in a fierce counterattack, relying on geographical advantages to hold on for a full two hours, until they received reinforcents from Zheng Tian's main force of ten thousand troops.
When Zheng Tian's forces arrived, it happened that the ngdu Group sent out a second thirty-thousand elite unit to reinforce when the first ambush unit failed to make breakthroughs.
This turned into a situation where Zheng Tian's forces were besieging the ngdu Group's thirty-thousand elite troops.
On the battlefield, the situation evolved where Yujin, Hu Yang, and a few others were surrounded inside. The thirty thousand elite troops of the ngdu Group were outside, with Zheng Tian's one hundred thousand strong force further outside.
In the past, with the tacit understanding between Ren Zhong and Hewitt, if a small number of Source Star Military Industry soldiers were surrounded inside, the ngdu Group's assault forces would typically intensify their attacks, swiftly eliminating those inside, then begin breaking through to escape. Or the Source Star Military Industry's troops would only probe slightly, causing a bit of damage, and then decisively abandon the rescue target and withdraw.
But Ren Zhong worried about exposing his prisoner-stealing operation, and he did not want Yujin and Hu Yang to perish here. He directly told Li Yang that one of the people being besieged was his adopted son, and he did not wish for him to die.
Li Yang then issued new orders to the ngdu Group's forces, telling them to reduce the intensity of their attack and leave survivors, which led to a stalemate.
To prevent Ren Zhong's "stealing people" secret from leaking, Zheng Tian also issued strict orders to her subordinate soldiers to keep communication jamrs on throughout the operation, to ensure the rescue of Yujin and Hu Yang, and to completely annihilate the enemy's main force here.
