Doomsday magician

Chapter 317
"With our current strength, if we want to conquer Shanghai, wouldn't it be a bit overthinking?"

Hearing Xu Bai's proposal, Leopard couldn't help being suspicious.

This is not to say that he grows zombie ambition and destroys his own prestige, but that the Shanghai urban area is indeed a very dangerous place.As one of the most densely populated cities in the south before the end of the world, the urban area of ​​Shanghai has a population of more than ten million.Even if most of the zombies were killed in the recovery operation at the beginning of the end of the world, and a lot of them came out one after another in the past year or so, there are still millions of zombies hidden in Shanghai!What's more, human beings are not only facing ordinary zombies, but also various zombie animals!
In the complex terrain of the city, it is definitely not easy to deal with so many zombies that have evolved for more than a year.

The most important thing is that the remaining munitions of the 10,000+ soldiers in Shanghai are not much.Letting them guard the base may be able to barely cope with two or three large-scale wars, but if they want to take the initiative to attack the city, they will have more than enough energy but not enough energy!
It was because of these reasons that Leopard was not confident in Xu Bai's plan.

The confident Xu Bai glanced at him, and asked with a smile, "Why? Do you think my plan is too radical?"

Leopard nodded, and admitted: "It's a little lack of confidence! I know, the chief thinks that with the silver medal, he can form a team of supernatural beings. I'm afraid they will be the main force in the battle as you expected? But, Shanghai is so Big, if you want to regain it, you need a huge number of supernatural beings. Thousands? Or tens of thousands? The capable troops will only have the capital to carry out the Shanghai recovery war!"

"well said!"

Xu Bai clapped his hands to encourage him, which made Leopard slightly embarrassed.However, Xu Bai immediately stated his judgment and plan: "From the perspective of recovering Shanghai City itself, your analysis is impeccable, but you have forgotten the logistical pressure of the Shanghai base!"

After being pointed out by Xu Bai, Leopard suddenly realized that he had missed an important factor.

For a long time, the Shanghai base has been the largest official survivor base in the south, with the largest number of troops and food.However, no matter how much food there is, there will be a day when it will be eaten up.For more than a year, although the base has continuously sent people out to collect food, the food stock has become less and less.Especially in recent months, the food returned from hunting has plummeted like a diving.At the same time, the base took in 70 million survivors from the Nanchang base, and they were poor with no food left. This dramatically increased the logistical pressure on the base!

"Even if we live frugally, the Shanghai base can only last for another two months!"

Xu Bai showed the specific figures to Leopard. This is the first-hand information he got after he took over Shanghai, and there is nothing more reliable than this.

"That is to say, it won't work if we don't fight?" Leopard frowned while analyzing: "Perhaps, we can also add the food on our island. With the substantial addition of the World Tree, at least one year can do it." Four seasons of rice. The amount we planted this time is not too small. If we take it all out, we may be able to delay the production of rice until the next season if we think of a way. As long as we greatly increase the area of ​​rice planting, we should be able to help the base survive the difficulties!"

Xu Bai shook his head and said, "Your analysis is still problematic!"

Leopard was stunned for a moment, and now he really didn't understand: "Where did the chief executive start?"

"For such a large-scale expansion, where do the seeds come from? Where does the fertilizer come from? Although the acceleration effect of the World Tree is excellent, it does not require any fertilizer. Besides, the area that the World Tree can currently affect is Limited, the effect is still a long way from covering the entire island, which undoubtedly greatly limits the area that can be cultivated. The last point is also the most critical point, you miscalculated the population base of the Shanghai base!"

Leopard blinked, somewhat unconvinced: "I agree with the first two points, but isn't the third point obvious? The total number of survivors from our Xishan Island plus the original Nanchang base plus the Shanghai base is close to 300." Ten thousand!"

"That's the problem!"

Xu Bai emphasized his tone slightly, and said: "The total number of people in Shanghai is 300 million now, but it doesn't mean that it will be 300 million in the next few months. You have to take a long view! I just want to say, since the Nanchang Base Can’t bear the pressure and merged into Shanghai and Shanghai, what do you think of other southern provincial bases? Southern Fujian base? Cantonese base? Southern Yunnan base? How long can they last?”

These words were like a basin of cold water being poured into the head, which instantly chilled the leopard!
Except for the Shanghai base, the strength of some other provincial bases is roughly the same, even if it is worse.Now that the Nanchang base can no longer withstand it, the situation in other bases is likely to come to an end. Which provincial base cannot have dozens of millions of survivors?Once they are forced to abandon the city, probably the first choice is Shanghai, right?

After all, now is no better than the beginning of the end of the world, when you can find a base at will and settle in!

Without enough strength, those third- and fourth-tier zombies outside can easily wipe out their entire army without the city wall!

Leopard fully understood now: "That is to say, in the next few months, there will probably be other large bases asking for help from Shanghai... This will be difficult! If you don't agree, you will die. No. If you promise, God knows there will be millions more survivors!"

"So, we must fight, and as soon as possible!"

Xu Bai said firmly: "It is a good thing that there are more survivors, but if they cannot be fully utilized, then such a large population base will only become a burden. From this perspective, it is also necessary to subdue Shanghai. By then, we will We can make full use of the millions of survivors and resume production in an all-round way! Food is only one aspect, and the various factories and machines in Shanghai are the big ones!"

Leopard no longer had any doubts, nodded and said: "It's still the chief's foresight, so let's prepare for the action to conquer Shanghai as soon as possible!"

Xu Bai waved his hand and said, "There's no need to panic. It won't take three or two days to completely recover the huge Shanghai. We'll think about it after we set up our first experimental camp of fake supernatural beings." It's not too late for this question. I think we can first delineate a vanguard area in Shanghai and let these 300 people cooperate with the team of supernatural beings to fight together. When the number of pseudo-specialist troops is increased to [-], we can then It’s not too late to start the official conquest!”

This is actually a two-step solution.

Leopard's idea is to pull out tens of thousands of 10,000+ people in one go, and then a big battle will be completely eliminated within three to five days.Xu Bai's plan is even longer, he plans to spend two months to conquer Shanghai!Compared to the former, Xu Bai's plan is undoubtedly more practical and less difficult!
Facts have proved that Xu Bai's idea is correct.

Probably because of their great energy, the supernatural beings who went out to hunt zombies only took a day and a half to rush back.After handing in all the crystal coins, Xu Bai used them to summon [-] silver medals in one go, and distributed them to the first independent battalion of supernatural beings who had been eagerly waiting beside them!
This is a special unit destined to be remembered in history!
"Is this the power of supernatural beings?"

"I feel it!! Even though it's just a beginner level!"

A group of pseudo-superhuman soldiers cheered excitedly. They didn't even care about their manners, and loudly communicated their feelings.It's a pity that they haven't issued standard equipment—elemental weapons.Without this, this troop of pseudo-supernatural beings is actually not much different from ordinary survivors. At best, it can only be said that there is an extra empty platform.

Although this platform is far superior to ordinary people, if it is not loaded with weapons and energy, it is no different from waste!
Elemental weapons, this is the tool used by pseudo-supernatural beings to fight.Xu Bai can provide them with a large number of machine gun shooters. Each machine gun shooter comes with nearly [-] rounds of elemental bullets, which can be used for them to fight for a long time.Correspondingly, the price Xu Bai needs to pay is to bask in the sun for half a day next to a large number of twins, that's all!

With such a comparison, the advantages of the superhuman army were immediately highlighted!
In the following time, Xu Bai spent all the remaining crystal coins to exchange the primary sun energy box and machine gun shooter for the soldiers of the first independent battalion of supernatural beings, and spent a lot of time summoning enough blasting bullets.Equipped with these, the independent first battalion has a well-organized army, with a flame machine gun shooter with super ammunition consumption.In order to ensure that he would not suffer losses in the night battle, Xu Bai responsibly sealed ten more magic circles with sealing cards!

The first battalion who got these seemed like a tiger with wings added, and finally had super firepower that could challenge any zombie army!

"Just talk and don't practice fake moves! Now that you have become an army, let's take it out and try it!"

As he said that, Xu Bai, who was looking forward to it in his heart, personally led these three hundred pseudo-supernatural beings to find a group of zombies with a scale of more than ten thousand.

Among them, there are six or seven third-tier zombies!
If it was an ordinary soldier, it might take a lot of effort to face so many zombies.And if the battle is sudden, there is likely to be a lot of losses.Xu Bai really wanted to know how far the army of supernatural beings could go!
