In the afternoon, Zhang Tie followed this group of war zone scavengers to the actual control area of Karur City.
It's a bit ironic to say, when Zhang Tie first came to the Karur War Zone, he was an imperial officer, but he left the war zone without even seeing the appearance of Karur City.
What he saw along the road from the abandoned town of Fogg to the area currently under the actual control of Karur City made Zhang Tie really have a more intuitive experience of the war between the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire in his heart.
Along the way, the closer they got to the actual control area of Karur City, the more serious the confrontation between the Helios Dynasty and the Norman Empire became, and we only needed to know from the strongholds, fortresses, and fortifications built by both sides around Karur that the battle between the Helios Dynasty and the Norman Empire in the Karol area of hundreds of thousands of people was destined to be a protracted wrestling game, and until this time, from the mouths of those scavengers, combined with what I had seen and heard in the army these days, Zhang Tiecai completely understood what the situation in the Karur area was now.
In addition to the Helios Dynasty and the Norman Empire, in the entire Karur region, the city of machines Kalur was the former manufacturing center of the Andaman Alliance, and the fat that caused the war to be fought over by tigers and hungry wolves.
In the eyes of the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire, the reason why fat meat can become fat meat is because it has the qualifications and oil and water to become fat meat.
Compared with a new city like Black Flame City, which has only a few decades of history, the development history of Kalur in the machine city of more than 200 years has accumulated a strong foundation for the city, which is reflected in all aspects of Karur, whether it is the city's population, prosperity, manufacturing strength, military equipment, and the actual radiation and control area of the city, these indicators of Karur are among the best in the entire Andaman Alliance.
Until this moment, Karur still retains a regular army of nearly 80,000 people, and the regular army of Karur, coupled with the tall walls of Karur City and those terrifying city defense weapons that have been carefully operated for more than 200 years, such a force is still important in the entire war zone now, and has the ability to affect the outcome of this war.
The first time he came to the actual control area of Karur City, Zhang Tie was shocked by the prosperity shown by Karur City, looking around, within a radius of more than ten kilometers, he had not seen the city wall of Karur City, Zhang Tie's eyes had been covered by a huge chimney as dense as a forest, those chimneys came from various factories in the area controlled by Karur, these factories have been connected into a large industrial area, between many factories, there are also air traffic tracks and various large and small pipelines, under the winter sun, The chimneys spit out puffs of black smoke that literally dyed the whole sky gray and black, and the factories under the thick smoke were still in full swing at this time, and there was no depression at all.
Just compared to these factories in the controlled area outside Karur City, the few factories in Black Flame City, maybe the steel mill is still a little larger, and the others are simply as simple as the small workshops of the rich people in the countryside.
And this is only the corner of what Zhang Tie saw in the northern part of the area controlled by Karur City.
The smoke from a factory chimney makes people feel like they are polluted, and the smoke from hundreds of tall chimneys makes people feel like they are small.
Here, Zhang Tie felt the power brought by human industrial development for the first time.
Inside the factory, the heat is in full swing, and outside the factory, the influx of hundreds of thousands of refugees from around Karur brought about by the war has made the whole area look a little chaotic.
Walking down the streets, you can see the ragged and emaciated refugees lining up outside the recruitment points of the factories, and more men and women holding signs on the side of the road, usually with the following content: I'm a seamstress, and I used to work for food.
Tents for refugees were erected everywhere in the slightly open areas along the roadside, many of which were filled with the cries of children, and on the slightly more noticeable roadside clean walls, there were notes and photographs plastered everywhere.
Because it was the first time to come, in order not to show his feet, Zhang Tie adhered to the principle of talking less and seeing more, stuffed his head, carried the things on his back, and followed the team of those war zone scavengers.
On the way along the way, Zhang Tie heard all kinds of legends, in the past few months, there are many teams of war zone scavengers who have never returned since they entered that war zone, some war zone scavengers have indeed made a fortune, and found some property that others have not had time to take away somewhere in those abandoned towns and villages, and even picked up some valuable trophies in some places where there have been traces of war between the two sides, such as sophisticated weapons or gold coins on some corpses, but there are also some unlucky guys, put his life on the line.
It may be exciting to scavenge for money in the deserted villages and towns around Karur City, but this excitement is also played with life, and this business that came into being because of the war is really a knife licking blood for ordinary people.
"Do you see my daughter, my daughter's name is Selena, here is her picture, she said she was going to school this morning, but she hasn't come back yet" "Do you see my daughter, my daughter's name is Selena, here is her picture, she said she was going to school this morning, but she hasn't come back yet" On the side of the road, a woman in her fifties was holding a photo of a woman, and every time she passed by her, she pulled her to ask the same question, but although the woman's mouth was asking, her eyes had become empty as if she had no soul.
Zhang Tie followed the person silently past her.
"This woman is already crazy, she came from the south, the situation in the north is a little better, I heard that in some places in the south, those beasts of the Sun God Dynasty rape women when they see them, from a few years old girls to fifty or sixty-year-old old women, the men over there were beheaded at the slightest resistance, and many others were arrested to work, build roads, and move things" Jerry, who was walking beside Zhang Tie, sighed and said.
"The flow of refugees in Karur started from the south, and when I heard the news from the south, the people from the north also ran away, and everyone wanted to run to Karur to seek a little shelter, but who knows, there are many refugees in Karur, and everyone's life is gone."
Zhang Tie was silent, and felt another kind of touch in his heart, this is the real cruel side of war, a war, the greatest harm to the ordinary people caught in the war, now hundreds of thousands of people in two countries fighting a war will cause such a disaster, if the holy war breaks out in the future, what will be the tragedy at that time.
Less than twenty minutes after entering the controlled area of Karur, Zhang Tie followed these war zone scavengers to their camp, their camp was in a garbage dump behind a factory area, the garbage dump was very large, and the ground was all black, although it was a garbage dump, but because the dumped waste here was coal gangue and other waste, the environment here was not absolutely unacceptable.
The entire Karur is more than 100 years old and has more than 100 years of coal gangue and other garbage, so you can imagine what it was like here.
In this garbage dump piled with coal gangue, there are thousands of tents set up in a dense area, at least 10,000 or 20,000 people live here, and even when Zhang Tie came here with the team, the steam trucks pulling coal gangue are still dumping garbage here, as soon as those trucks come, a large number of children began to run with the trucks, regardless of the possible dangers, and when the coal gangue on the car is so low that it cannot be used is dumped out, the pile of children will rush up.
With buckets and baskets and the like, he began to dig up the few coals in the garbage heap that could still be reused.
The whole refugee camp was dusty, cars were running and people were running, and men and women, old and young, were all huddled together, and it was like a pot of porridge.
"Fred, what good things did you bring this time" Soon after the group entered the tent area, an old man in his 60s greeted them.
"The harvest is average, but today I went to Fogg Town, and I got a little bit of winter stuff and a little tableware, you give a fair price" "Winter things, now many people don't know how to survive this winter, these things are coming in time," the old man in his 60s looked at the things that everyone was carrying and nodded.
"Come with me" Zhang Tie also followed the others to the old man's tent, Zhang Tie also carried a few bundled dusty quilts from Fogg Town, at this time Zhang Tie, in addition to the original harvest, also had a half-new and not very good imitation wool coat on his body, and he looked like a refugee, seeing him following the team, the old man just glanced at him and didn't pay attention to him.
The group followed the old man to a tent, which was large and surrounded by a lot of stuff, and a few men who looked as strong as thugs patrolled the area, which seemed to be a small center in the tent area.
In front of a bulletinboard-like thing on the road next to this tent, there were many people gathered there, and when passing by the billboard, Zhang Tie saw the heads of him and Major Franca, which were two wanted warrants, and under these two wanted warrants, although there were other wanted warrants, but because the bonuses on these two wanted warrants were the highest, the wanted warrants of Zhang Tie and Major Franka were put on the top, and the bonuses for both of them were 3000 gold coins.
Just at a glance, the contents of the two wanted warrants came into Zhang Tie's mind.
Zhang Tie's heart was shocked, it didn't make Zhang Tie feel too strange to see the wanted warrant of the Norman Empire in the refugee camp in Karul close to the control area of the Norman Empire, this place now, except for the absence of war, is simply a gathering place of three religions and nine streams, it is not strange to see the wanted warrant of the Norman Empire, what makes Zhang Tie really strange is that Major Franka is also wanted Major Franka is also wanted by the Northern Frontier Military Region of the Empire, and it is the Order Review Committee of the Empire that wants him, and the crimes of both wanted warrants are murder, which made Zhang Tie taste a little special taste.
For the sake of himself and Major Franca, the big names above seem to have done it in this matter.
This is good news for Zhang Tie, at least, the heart that Zhang Tie originally hung for the family in Black Flame City fell into his stomach all of a sudden.
There is a Northern Xinjiang Military Region covering, if something happens to his own family, and those secret police make some kind of moths, isn't it a naked slap in the face of the Northern Xinjiang Military Region and the Iron Horn Army Because his age and appearance look far from the image on the wanted warrant, no one doubts that this scavenger-like man at this moment is actually the guy worth 3,000 gold coins on the wanted warrant.
Some of the things that Zhang Tie brought finally brought him an income of four silver coins and 37 coppers.
Everyone in the team has a harvest, according to the rules, everyone has to hand over 30 of their own harvest to Fred, as a protection fee, after happily handing over their 30 income today, the boss of this team of scavengers, Fred's eyes looked at Zhang Tie even softer.
"How about it, I see that you are bold enough, join us, and we will work together in the future" Fred invited Zhang Tie to join him with the enthusiasm and tone of "creating a great cause together".
Zhang Tie, of course, would not do such a "promising career" here, and after politely declining Fred's "invitation" under the pretext of wanting to find a stable job in the factory, Zhang Tie touched the few silver coins and a pile of tinkling copper in his pocket, and left the camp.
Although the power of the Norman Empire's secret police is not yet extended to the control area of Karol City, it does not mean that they are safe at the moment, the temptation of 3,000 gold coins is enough to make many people take risks, the wanted warrant in the refugee camp is the best illustration, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, if they are caught, those people can definitely send themselves out of the Karol war zone, this short distance of more than 100 kilometers, the sun god can come to such a big airship, not to mention only one person, How difficult is that?
Zhang Tie thought while walking on the street, similarly, even if he did not appear on the military's wanted notice, the army would definitely not be able to go back, because if he went back, he would not be able to explain the cause and effect of the conflict with the secret police.

So, how can I go back to Black Flame City and find a way to get in touch with my parents?
Zhang Tie thought while walking, I don't know how long he walked, when a building on the side of the street appeared in Zhang Tie's sight, Zhang Tie's whole person suddenly shook.
Above the main entrance of that building, there was a mighty relief of a huge four-winged golden peng That's right, Fortune Wings Bank Thinking of the all-encompassing services provided by this bank that he saw last time in Jinpeng Bank in Black Flame City, Zhang Tie's eyes lit up suddenly:
