Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 1885: Lurking Zombies
Boom boom boom~
The convoy drove to the open space outside the gate of Wu City Military Base.

The behemoth stood out among the convoy, extremely outstanding.

Song Qi saw the Unimog in the convoy at a glance.

In the entire camphor tree base, almost everyone knows that the car is the city lord’s exclusive vehicle.

Li Yu got out of the car and arrived at the gate of the military base under the protection of the guards.

Bang bang bang bang~
Suddenly, at Song Qi's signal, the garrison members stationed at the military base shouted in unison:
"Welcome City Lord!"

Li Yu walked up to Song Qi with a smile on his face.

With the smile on his face unchanged, he whispered, "How come you are doing such nonsense?"

"Hurry up and let the convoy in. Don't block the door. The sun is about to set."

"Yes, yes, yes." Song Qi quickly called on the garrison members to vacate their positions and allow the transport team to enter the military base.

Accompanied by Song Qi, Li Yu, Dapao and others walked into the military base.

Li Yu hadn't been to the military base for a long time. What surprised him was that the military base had undergone significant changes.

One of the storage rooms, which has been vacant for a long time, is now used to store zombie generators, and the electricity generated is used to provide power for the entire military base.

Pushing open the door next door, you will see greenery everywhere, and there is a fill light above your head, illuminating the entire space.

Song Qi explained with a smile:
"City Lord, this is our latest indoor plantation. It's not very big, only 4 acres, but it's enough to supply the guards stationed here."

"We lacked fresh fruits and vegetables before. If we wanted to eat vegetables, we could only get bean sprouts and mushrooms. But now with this indoor plantation, it's different. We can eat fresh vegetables anytime."

After seeing this scene, Li Yu nodded repeatedly: "Not bad."

The entire military base covers an area of ​​dozens of acres. If there is no transport convoy coming here to rest, the entire military base will be extremely empty and a lot of space will be wasted.

It’s great that we can now make use of some of the space.

Although 4 acres of planting area is not much, if all of it is planted with high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes and corn, the guard members stationed here will not have to get food from the headquarters base.

It is completely self-sufficient.

After all, there are not many guards stationed here, only dozens of people.

After visiting the zombie generator and indoor plantation at the military base, Song Qi took Li Yu to visit the open basketball court, ping-pong table and other sports venues at the military base.

Except for the basketball hoop which is fixed, everything else is basically movable.

Once a convoy comes in, these things can be moved away.

Later, we visited the library corner, lounge, entertainment room, shower and bathing pool and other places in the military base.

After watching this circle, Li Yu said with some emotion:
"Although the house is small, it has everything you need. There was nothing here before, but you built it into a comfortable living space with your own hands. That's great."

The same house can turn into a garbage dump for some people, but can be turned into a warm home for others.

This all depends on their own subjective initiative.

The improved living conditions at the military base will also be of great benefit to the transport brigade.

At least you can take a hot bath here, have a good sleep, and relieve the fatigue of driving for a day.

Night falls.

Li Yu, Li Qi, Song Qi, Zuo Ruxue, Xiao Hu and others sat on chairs in the middle of the lounge.

Li Yu asked Song Qi and Li Qi how they felt about being here and if there was anything else they needed support from the headquarters base.

Both said they had no need for support.

"How long have you been stationed here?" Li Yu asked, looking at the two men's fair faces.

Both of their faces were pale, obviously caused by staying underground for a long time without sunlight.

Li Qi and Song Qi looked at each other. After hearing this question, Li Qi suppressed his excitement and answered:

"One year and two months."

The city lord asked this question personally, and the meaning behind it was very clear - it’s finally time to replace someone!

Li Yu was stunned for a few seconds after hearing the number one year and two months.

He remembered that Li Qi and his team had just arrived not long ago, but when he thought about it carefully, it was almost the same. The blizzard and flood disasters alone lasted for more than half a year.

Li Qi and Song Qi have been here for so long, it's time to change people.

Thinking of this, Li Yu said to the two of them:

"I will find replacements for you in the near future. Where do you want to go after you leave here?"

Li Qi said without hesitation:
"I want to join the transport team!"

She had long envied Zuo Ruxue's life of being able to run around every day, especially after staying in the military base for a year, she felt like she was going to molder.

"Yeah." Li Yu nodded. He originally wanted to form another transport team, and then he could let Li Qi lead the team to join.

With the development of the oil city, the exchange of materials with the headquarters base is becoming more frequent.

It is not enough to rely solely on the transport team of Zuo Ruxue and Xiao Hu.

Besides, the North also needs material exchanges.

But now, because Oil City has to prepare to fight against the zombie army and the general offensive in the northwest, the transport team has not been to the north for a long time.

There is also equipment loss in the north, and support is needed from Oil City and the headquarters base.

The grain produced there is now piling up like a mountain, and the warehouses are almost full.

The few people in the North cannot consume all the food produced in the North.

"What about you?" Li Yu looked at Song Qi.

Song Qi said without hesitation: "I want to join the exploration and publicity team!"

When Li Yu heard Song Qi say this, he looked at him in surprise.

This brigade is still in the planning stage and was just proposed at the general meeting at the headquarters base a few days ago.

In order to promote the Dazhangshu base and attract more survivors to join Dazhangshu.

Refer to the Oil City and intensify the publicity of the camphor tree.

While attracting more survivors to join the base, it can also explore South China, Central China and other regions.

Find exploitable mineral resources, find out the current domestic population situation, collect all usable materials, understand the distribution of zombies in each region, the degree of mutation, etc.

In short, this exploration and publicity team is looking for people, mines, resources, and zombies.
Song Qi knew it now, probably because his sister Song Min told him.

Song Min is considered a high-ranking figure in the Dazhangshu forces and is qualified to participate in some important meetings.

"Okay, exploring the propaganda team will be dangerous, so you have to be mentally prepared." Li Yu reminded.

Song Qi nodded quickly and said, "Yes, City Lord, I'm ready!"

Seeing that he answered so firmly, Li Yu said no more.

It's a good thing for young people to have some drive.

Regarding the replacement personnel, Li Yu also asked Song Qi and the others for their opinions.

They mentioned Sergeant Luo and Gao Zhongtian who had passed by here before, and Li Yu had some impression of these two people.

However, Li Yu felt that the Wu City Military Base was a relatively important place.

As a transportation hub connecting the Dazhangshu Base and the Oil City, a more reliable person must be stationed here.

The night passed.

Early the next morning.

Zuo Ruxue got up early, and as usual, she inspected the fleet and checked for some dangerous and potential faults.

She had this habit since she took over the transport team.

She hopes to solve the problem as much as possible before departure to avoid problems arising during the convoy's journey and requiring temporary solutions.

During transportation, time is of the essence.

The apocalypse at night is extremely dangerous, and the convoy can only travel during the day, which means that the transport convoy must travel from the headquarters base to the military base, and from the military base to the oil city within the limited daytime. Li Yu happened to see Zuo Ruxue inspecting the convoy. Seeing Zuo Ruxue being so serious and responsible, Li Yu suddenly felt how wise it was to hand over the transport brigade to Zuo Ruxue.

When doing transportation work in the apocalypse where zombies are everywhere, you must be careful and meticulous, as many times some details can lead to irreparable disasters.

Zuo Ruxue did a good job in this regard.

Li Qi was able to transform an empty military base into a livable one. He seems to be a meticulous person and is suitable to be the leader of the second transport brigade.

After half an hour.

When the convoy arrived here yesterday, it immediately filled up the fuel and replenished water.

After some inspection, the convoy set off.

bang bang bang --

The gate of the military base burst open.

The imperial concubine led the advance team out first, followed closely by the assault squadron led by Li Tie.

The huge transport convoy headed towards the oil city.

Until the shadow of the convoy disappeared from sight, Song Qi and Li Qi were still standing at the gate of the military base looking at it.

The rising sun shone on their faces, and smiles appeared on their faces with longing and expectation for the future.

Soon, they would be able to leave this tomb-like place.

Living in an underground military base is okay for a while, but it gets really boring after a while.

"What's the matter with that exploration and publicity team you are going to join? How come I don't know about it?" Li Qi asked after a while.

Song Qi turned his head and looked at Li Qi.
"I heard about this from my sister a few days ago. I remember mentioning it to you. Did you forget? Do you want to join the team?"

Li Qi shook her head and said:

"No, I've already told the city lord to go to the transport team. I won't bother with you anymore. However, the exploration and publicity team you're joining sounds quite dangerous, so you better take it easy."

The two had been stationed together at the Wu City military base for more than a year and were very familiar with each other.

Song Qi is only 23 years old this year, and Li Qi is 8 years older than him.

In Li Qi's eyes, Song Qi is like his own younger brother.

During the time when the two of them were stationed at the military base, she was also quite caring towards Song Qi.

Hearing the concern in Li Qi's words, Song Qi replied with a smile:
"Men need adventures! I'm looking forward to it."

Hearing his immature remarks, Li Qi rolled her eyes and didn't bother to pay any more attention to him. She turned around and walked into the military base.

However, after the transport team left the Wu City military base, they headed north without encountering any setbacks along the way.

The only problem was that when they passed the Yangtze River and crossed the Yangtze River Bridge, because the convoy was too long, it attracted a large number of zombies on the river to attack.

But with the powerful firepower of the escort and commandos, not a single zombie was allowed to crawl ashore.

After the convoy left, zombie corpses were floating everywhere on the river.

These corpses floated on the water for a short while before they were pulled down by the zombies in the river and divided up and eaten.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, they had arrived in Dawu County, south of the oil city.

It is less than 100 kilometers away from the oil city.

In the northern area of ​​Dawu County, there is an iron mine and a copper mine rebuilt by an oil city. Generally speaking, iron mines and copper mines always appear at the same time, and a symbiotic relationship between the two is very common.

In the Unimog.

Zuo Ruxue and Li Yu were in the same car.

They came to a fork in the road, one going straight north and the other going northwest.

Both roads were covered with weeds, but the weeds on both roads showed signs of being crushed by wheels.

Zuo Ruxue pointed to the road on the left and said to Li Yu:

"City Lord, if we go in from this road, we will reach our copper and iron mine in Dawu County."

Li Yu looked up at the fork in the road and wanted to go over to take a look, but it was getting late.

So he asked, "How far in will it be to the mine?"

Zuo Ruxue thought for a moment and replied, "It will take more than half an hour to get there."

"Um"

Li Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it, let's not go. Let's go to Oil City first."

If he went to inspect, the commando team would definitely follow him, and the transport brigade led by Zuo Ruxue would definitely be worried. If the transport brigade was taken over as well, it would be a waste of time.

It’s better not to go.

After hearing Li Yu say he would not go, Zuo Ruxue breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, City Lord."

Northwest of Oil City.

Thirty kilometers away is a transportation hub where the fork in National Highway 312 before the end of the world was located. To the south of this hub, there is also an east-west railway.

In the center of this transportation hub is Oil City’s No. 6 sentry tower.

The sentry tower is about 15 meters high and is made entirely of containers.

It is fully enclosed, with iron fences protecting the top floor.

At the bottom of the watchtower, four people walked out of the watchtower.

A man walked out of the watchtower and shouted to the four people:
"Thank you, Lao Ma. Bring me two more packs of cigarettes next time~~"

The four people stopped and the man named Lao Ma turned his head and smiled:

"You guys are such a waste of cigarettes. Okay, I'll bring you some next time. Let's go. If you don't leave now, you'll have to stay here overnight."

He came here to deliver supplies to the sentry tower. Almost every week, he would come to sentry tower No. 6 and bring them the water, food, fully charged batteries, cigarettes and other supplies needed by the sentry tower.

There are dozens of sentry towers in the four directions of the oil city. These sentry towers not only provide convenience and temporary protection for the teams going out on missions, but also serve as a warning against foreign invasions.

After Lao Ma finished speaking, he quickly got on the truck and drove towards the oil city with the other three people.

The man standing at the door looked at the backs of Lao Ma and the others as they left, and was about to close the door of the watchtower.

For some unknown reason I felt that the patch of grass to the west was a little strange.

But when he took out his telescope and looked carefully, he found nothing.

Boom!
He closed the iron door of the watchtower and locked it with several thick horizontal bolts.

Evening sunset.

Behind the grass that is more than one meter tall to the west of the watchtower, there is a lush bush.

In the bushes, there were two hundred wall-climbing zombies.

Tian Yunxiao was somewhat puzzled and asked Xiang Hua:

"We had such a good opportunity just now. They opened the gate and didn't get in the car. Why don't you take action? Give me five minutes. I am sure I can take down this sentry tower!"

Xiang Hua said seriously:
"Don't lose the big picture for the sake of small gains. Our ultimate goal is the Oil City, not these sentry towers!"

"It would be useless even if we take down the sentry tower. Once the people in the sentry tower spread the news, our whereabouts will be exposed!"

"Besides, there's no need to do it during the day. It would be better for us to do it at night when it's dark and windy."

"Retreat, there is a sentry tower ahead, we will definitely be discovered if we pass by. It seems that there must be many sentry towers near the Oil City. If we move during the day, the noise will be too loud, so we should walk to the Oil City at night!"

Although Tian Yunxiao was a little unhappy, he also knew that what Xiang Hua said made sense.

He snorted coldly, but also agreed to Xiang Hua's action plan.

We have come so far, and if we are discovered before we attack the oil city,
The blitzkrieg and surprise attack they carried out this time ended in failure.
