Chapter 1053: Anti-Ancient Situation, Methods to Deal with Aging!

Since Hunter Tiger took over the command of the Pingtan Army, the idea of ​​weapons and equipment for the entire Pingtan Shelter has undergone a major change.

From the initial large-scale deployment of firepower weapons, it suddenly changed to focusing on sophisticated firepower suppression weapons.

These were either purchased from the Foundation's blueprints and technology, or weapons and vehicles looted from other forces.

Hunter Tiger finally kept only the best ones, and traded the rest to other places in exchange for more valuable things.

And such a choice, with the help of various types of equipment that are still at the peak of mechanical quality, will inevitably bring a period of prosperity to the Pingtan Shelter.

But similarly, after the glory, it will naturally be a mess.

Equipment in video games has durability, let alone real equipment.

Ordinary guns can still be maintained by the establishment of a weapons management office in the shelter, but those large vehicles and cutting-edge weapons that require engineers to disassemble and maintain.

Such as combined tanks, such as self-propelled anti-aircraft guns.

These things, no one can afford the consequences of poor maintenance after disassembly, or even the consequences of not being able to be reassembled after disassembly.

So when the internal problems appeared, it was already in a hopeless state.

Especially recently, with the advent of the metal aging disaster, those weapons that were on the verge of retirement suddenly began to have large-scale problems.

Including the exclusive vehicle of the Hunting Tiger, since the last trip, the track has been rotten to the point of needing large-scale repairs.

Fortunately, this matter has not been heard by the enemy, let alone the allies in the alliance.

Otherwise, if they knew that the current combat effectiveness of the Pingtan Army is less than half of that of last month, it would be a big problem.

Therefore, considering the deterrent problem in the future, the Hunting Tiger almost sent out the best goods at the bottom of the box when supporting the bunker.

Including the two tanks that look brand new.

"It doesn't seem to be as bad here as imagined. At least they have built a wall!"

The captain of the Giant City Shelter is Chapman.

This returnee who is deliberately trying to take revenge on the Sunny Harbor Shelter.

It stands to reason that he should not come here as a deputy manager, but the recent changes are really exciting.

First the raiders attacked, then the undead appeared.

Before the Qinggang Shelter could catch their breath, the fog obscured their vision again and brought all the revenge actions to an abrupt halt.

Then the Rangers Corps suffered a setback in the Western Suburbs, and the brainless Hunter Tiger actually learned to form an alliance.

The establishment of the Western Suburbs Alliance completely gave Chapman hope for revenge.

This time, he established the bridgehead of the alliance in the Pumpkin Bunker and launched the first battle of the offensive. He applied for the position of captain without hesitation.

The purpose was to come here to see the probability of success with his own eyes.

And now standing in front of the Pumpkin Bunker, it looks really good here.

From the crooked wall, Chapman could feel that the people here had not given up half of their hope of survival.

Compared to dealing with a group of brainless wanderers, it is obviously easier to deal with this kind of civilized slaves.

At least in theory.

Just as he was thinking about this in his heart, the ordinary soldiers in the alliance team also expressed different sighs about the bunker.

"It's really well built here, much more complete than our Pingtan shelter!"

"Yeah, we just came to the ground to try to live, and they have already built so many houses here."

"What's good about the ground? Aren't you really afraid of a nuclear bomb suddenly falling from the sky?"

"What's there to be afraid of? Compared to living a lifetime underground, I feel that these days on the ground are ten times happier and ten times more fulfilling!"

"Yes, yes, breathing fresh air every day, being able to bask in the sun, and patrolling the streets, this is simply too happy!"

"Do you think the administrator will transfer us here to assist in defense? I don't think they have many guards?"

"It's possible. If I can apply, I must be the first to apply!"

The blocks above the Pingtan shelter have now been flattened and rebuilt.

Although there is no assistance from large-scale engineering machinery, the progress is not as slow as imagined.

The broken streets have been renovated and paved with white cement to form a hardened road surface.

The dilapidated villa courtyards on both sides of the road have been leveled several times, and some of the land fertility can be divided into agricultural production areas.

Some buildings had more debris, so they were simply rebuilt into public buildings for residents like Hope Village.

Even the tiger hunter was so outrageous that he even copied the management of the village.

On the ground, he also set up a department similar to the General Works Administration.

Every resident can accept tasks, which can offset the shelter-level tasks, and can also save up to exchange for things on the supply list.

In addition, he did not miss the wall, which is a landmark building of the soul.

The tiger hunter has a big appetite.

Now starting from the location of the broken bridge, a wall is being rapidly expanded.

Most of them are made of demolished construction waste, but they can't be seen at all after being wrapped in cement concrete.

After some changes, the ground world, which used to be afraid of tigers, has become a hot commodity with the opening of tiger hunters.

Even these guards are unwilling to return to the damp and cold ground to live.

"Hey, there are people coming out of the city gate. Are they from the bunker?"

"Why are these guards holding farm tools? Don't they have guns?"

"Who will ask?"

Looking at the "new soldiers" who came out after the city gate opened, a group of soldiers looked at each other and exchanged words.

However, there was no chance for them to interrupt and ask at this time. Wang Qian, who represented the Pingtan Army, had already walked up. ׺°”˜˜`”°º×

"I am the support team leader of the Western Suburban Alliance Flat Beach Shelter, Wang Qian."

"Hello, Captain Wangwangqian, I am Bacon, the deputy guard captain of Pumpkin Kefu Bunker."

The lame vice-captain forced a smile, but the movement was too big and the wound was aroused, and the pain made him grin.

"Thank you so much for the welcome. With the arrival of the alliance's garrison, we finally feel more at ease."

"What happened, why was this place attacked by the South Suburban Shelter?"

"It's a long story, here's what happened"

Yesterday on the radio, Lao Dao did not report clearly what happened.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the interrogation of the Rangers has not ended yet.

The guards were dead and injured. You can't expect ordinary villagers to use farm tools to interrogate a group of wanderers, right?

As a result, it wasn't until the guard captain Nat made his move in the morning that he got the specific information.

"You mean those wanderers also wanted to join our Western Suburbs Alliance, so they handed in their certificates of nomination and came to the bunker?"

Wang Qian was not very satisfied with this answer and immediately frowned.

According to what the deputy captain of the guard said.

It was the escaped members of the Ranger Legion that triggered the pursuit from the southern suburbs shelter, and they chased them all the way here.

And the reason why they came here was because they heard about Pumpkin Bunker joining the western suburbs.

In Qinggang Shelter, they suffered inhuman torture and abuse, and were thrown out as consumables to be consumed by each other in the southern suburbs.

Now that the Western Suburbs Alliance has been established, it has the qualifications to compete with Sunny Harbor Sanctuary.

As a result, they decisively chose to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side, and handed in a letter of surrender that they thought they were satisfied with.

"Yes, that's what they told me." Bacon nodded quickly, glanced at the people around him and continued: "And to show their sincerity, they also brought a lot of information, including the new city of Qinggang Shelter. All kinds of information in it.”

"Tell me about it?" Su Deben asked calmly.

"The specific information is with Captain Nat, I just"

Before Bacon could finish his words, he saw a group of people galloping over from behind the city wall, and it turned out to be Lao Dao and his party.

Among them, Captain Nat is also impressive.

Seeing the size of the reinforcements, he was stunned for a moment, then wiped his eyes in disbelief.

It wasn't until he confirmed that all this was true that he rushed forward with great joy.

"Distinguished guests, distinguished guests from the alliance, please come in quickly, we have prepared a sumptuous reception ceremony!"

"It is the glory of Pumpkin Kefu Bunker that you can come here. If the owner can see it, he will be very happy."

In any case, Nat is quite clear in terms of self-awareness.

He immediately put himself in the lowest position, which immediately won the favor of most people present.

Including Wang Qian, including Chapman.

Even Su Deben nodded inconspicuously, thinking about it.

Looking at Nat with a humble look on his face, the three of them looked at each other and waved to the group of soldiers behind them.

"Our people will not go in for the time being. Please send some people to help them set up a camp."

"In the next few days, at least until there is no further instruction, we will help you share the defensive pressure."

Nat looked at Sudben with a look of disbelief.

Not going into town? Just help defend outside?

How could the Western Suburbs League be so abiding by the rules?

In his view, being annexed is now a certainty, and Pumpkin Bunker will completely become the bridgehead of the Western Suburban Alliance.

However, what the other party did was to put the bunker on the same line as other shelters in the alliance.

There may be high or low, there may be priorities.

But definitely not a vassal!

"Okay, we will immediately send residents to help the reinforcements build the camp!"

Nat opened his mouth, but finally turned it into a sentence.

He turned around without stopping for a moment and quickly returned to the bunker to make arrangements.

On the other side, Lao Dao and others also came up.

"How is it going?"

"It's just as serious here, aging has reached a critical point."

After answering Su Deben's question, the old man quickly told everything he had seen and heard yesterday.

The specific time of the next metal aging disaster has not yet been officially announced.

But just a warning has already severely damaged the vitality of the indigenous people.

Among them, four-fifths of the metal farm tools in the bunker were broken, and most of them became scraps that broke after just one use.

Although the situation of those doped with alloys is better, the benefits are also very limited.

In particular, several small production lines in the bunker have all been broken down by the power of the aging disaster.

It can be said that the people here have almost returned to the primitive times, and they are almost no longer able to produce tools on their own.

"Is it so serious here?" Chapman's eyes widened.

Wang Qian next to him snorted noncommittally, his face full of complaints about the former's acting skills.

Don't you have a clue whether it's that serious?

The distance between the bunker and the city is so close, can the giant city shelter be an exception?

The old Taoist didn't stop and continued talking.

"In fact, this is not the worst. The spoons and forks they use have become old. Now many people have been forced to eat with their hands. In addition, all the vehicles stored in the open air in the bunker are basically unusable, and the few remaining off-road motorcycles are on the verge of damage."

"This is just a small example, but I think it is representative enough. If we really want to consider deploying here, we must first consider how to transport manpower and supplies from the western suburbs."

"We can't hope that the shelters of the Southern Suburbs Alliance are afraid of us, just like they opened fire yesterday. There is no shortage of lunatics in this world."

In fact, Laodao's reminders are redundant for Wang Qian and Chapman.

As "old guys", their understanding of the situation is obviously deeper than what they are saying now.

"So we need to find a way to solve the aging problem as soon as possible, or find a substitute for the time being?"

Chapman was evasive, but finally said the real idea of ​​this trip.

"Well said, this is also one of the purposes of our coming here."

Wang Qian repeated it, looking at the fertile land under his feet, and said to himself.

However, the topic naturally ended after talking about this.

After all, no one present could explain how to solve it and what to replace it.

Are we going to return to the era of cold weapons again?

This is the favorite of Hunter Tiger, because the combat effectiveness of the mutants he has won over will reach its peak.

But it does not help to prevent the situation in the city from continuing to deteriorate.

It can be imagined that once cold weapons are used as the main combat force, bombs are used as auxiliary.

The shelter of the mole man will definitely not last long. It will not be fun if the South Suburb Alliance turns the table.

The Qinggang Shelter wants to slowly eat away the population to expand its scale.

The West Suburb Alliance is the same. It chooses the Pumpkin Bunker as the bridgehead of the alliance and also wants to plunder enough supplies.

If a fight really breaks out, then whoever wants this hot potato will take it.

"Let's take a look first. We can discuss this matter slowly later."

The adventurer terminal in his pocket vibrated slightly, and Su Deben opened his mouth to end the topic.

In front of the city gate on the other side, scattered residents have begun to walk out, joining the camp construction work with shocked faces.

The progress is very fast, and the slaves in the bunker are more skilled in work than the residents in the shelter.

Especially the slaves selected by Catalina at that time, they were originally skillful people.

After greeting a few words, he ordered the soldiers to build the camp near the orchard isolation belt.

Su Deben flashed and disappeared in the shadows of the trees.

At this time.

The center of the explosion.

Lv Kuan, wearing a protective suit, was holding a small piece of fragment the size of a thumb in his hand and put it directly under the sun for observation.

Seeing the dense lines reflected by the fragments under the illumination of light and shadow.

His expression was slightly shocked, and he couldn't stop muttering.

"It turned out to be like this. It's not that there is a problem with the energy machine's induced energy, but aging. Aging has occurred inside the energy stone."

"But the energy stone is not metal, how can it be counted in this category?"

"But if it is really aging that caused the energy stone to explode, no, this pattern could be..."
