Chapter 1371 Steady as an Old Dog

Big Camphor Tree Base, Inner City.

Second Uncle returned from the outer city and walked on the main road of the inner city.

The trees on the roadside were crooked, and Ding Jiu led people to clean up the fallen leaves and branches on the ground and straighten the trees on the roadside.

The huge camphor tree in the center, the tender green leaves on the tree shone brightly, and the air and grass exuded a fresh breath.

The sun shone through the clouds on the main road, emitting a series of dazzling lights.

This huge camphor tree is the most important symbol of their big camphor tree base, and it is also the origin of the name of the big camphor tree base.

After the storm, many branches and leaves fell from the tree, and even two thick branches broke and fell.

But this is nothing to this huge camphor tree.

"President." Ding Jiu and Wang Cheng and others greeted the second uncle after seeing him.

"Okay." The second uncle walked hurriedly without stopping.

There were things in his mind, and he could make decisions on many things, but some things still needed to be discussed with Li Yu.

I hurried to the villa area and just walked to the gate of the yard.

Several big wolfhounds at the gate stood up and lay down after seeing that it was my second uncle.

The courtyard was in a mess, and the flowers and green plants originally planted were scattered all over the ground.

Li Yu was cleaning up with Li Yuan, Li's mother and others.

After the rainstorm, the entire camphor tree base was a bit messy.

Reinforce the greenhouse, repair the underground drainage canal, remove the mud, sand, branches and other messy things in the drainage canal, and repair the broken surveillance camera.

Except for factory staff, on-duty staff, planting staff, etc., everyone else was dealing with the traces after the thunderstorm disaster.

Li Yu saw my second uncle coming in, put down the shovel in his hand, took off his gloves, and said to Li Yuan: "You continue to do it, I will talk to my second uncle."

"Okay." Li Yuan glanced at my second uncle.

He greeted my second uncle.

"Xiao Yu, Yuanzi" The second uncle's eyes shifted from the wolfhounds and saw Li Yu and Li Yuan.

Li Yu took his second uncle into the villa, but did not stay in the living room, but went directly to the rooftop terrace.

The dark and humid rainstorm lasted too long, and they did not want to stay indoors, and liked to bask in the sun outside.

"Sit down, second uncle." Li Yu poured a glass of water for his second uncle, and then sat on the rattan chair.

He put his hands on the back of his head and squinted at the sun.

He knew that his second uncle came to him, and he must have something to discuss.

It was too boring to stay indoors, so it was more comfortable on the rooftop terrace.

The second uncle sat on the rattan chair and drank a sip of water.

"Xiao Yu, I came to you to discuss a few things with you."

"Uncle, go ahead."

Uncle put down the cup,

"He Bing and Lao Dong have already produced the ultraviolet lamps, and it is expected that 600 units will be produced in two days. It is estimated that 400 units will be needed in Oil City. The headquarters base does not include the buffer city and the satellite city, and the outer city wall alone will require 300 units."

"I think that Oil City has a large population and is more popular, which is easier to attract wall-climbing zombies, and its defense is not as good as that of the headquarters base. So I want to satisfy Oil City first, and equip the rest to the outer city wall of the big camphor tree base. What do you think?"

Li Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and what Uncle said was not unreasonable.

It seems that the number of wall-climbing zombies is relatively small now, but they are more powerful.

The mobile gate knife at the trading market is still a primary version, not as good as the gate knife at the headquarters base.

If the wall-climbing zombies are fast enough, they can still get through the gaps in the mobile gate knife.

Although the oil array can be used, it consumes oil.

"Well, I have no problem, but I think we should leave some of them. Although the wall-climbing zombies are powerful, they are afraid of ultraviolet rays."

"By the way, second uncle, last time I told you to send someone to the northwest to take a look, who do you think is more suitable to lead the team?"

Second uncle adjusted his sitting posture and leaned forward.

Regarding the team leader, he also thought of several people before looking for Li Yu.

Old Xie, Old Yi, Xiao Jun, Ju Tianrui and Dongtai are all in Oil City, and Old Xie will definitely go to the North Border next.

The thunderstorm has just passed, and Ju Tianrui and others will definitely stay in Oil City for a while.

In addition to them, there are only Old Lv, Old Bi, and Old Luo who are more suitable in the entire camphor tree base.

Of course, if Old Qin Jackal and others are willing to lead the team, it will naturally be the most suitable.

But they have been following the third brother, and they are probably not willing to let them lead the team alone.

There are too many uncertain factors on the way to the northwest.

It is a difficult journey, and an experienced person must be led, otherwise it is easy to be wiped out if you encounter trouble.

A good captain makes very important decisions when encountering difficulties, which is related to the life and death of a team.

"Xiao Yu, I think Lao Bi or Lao Luo are suitable. They have experience in leading teams, and they are all from the army, so they are more combat-effective."

"In addition to them, you can ask Lao Qin and Ant, they are also suitable candidates."

"Uncle Qin and the others will definitely not be willing."

Li Yu shook his head and said:

"Lao Qin and Uncle Ant like to follow Uncle San, let them lead the team alone, although they may agree to it for Uncle San's face, but there is no need to let them do things they don't want to do."

"Lao Bi and Lao Luo. I think they are actually quite suitable, and Uncle Er seems to have misunderstood what I meant."

"Oh?" Uncle Er was a little confused.

Li Yu saw that his second uncle didn't seem to understand what he meant, so he explained:

"We have helicopters. Isn't the maximum endurance of 2,200 kilometers? Let them fly the helicopter to search this area first."

The second uncle slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot about this. I kept thinking about sending people to search from the ground."

"But."

The second uncle frowned again and asked: "It's so far to the northwest, what should we do about the fuel problem when we return?"

Li Yu waved his hand and said:

"As for the issue of return, follow the previous method and store fuel in the cabin. At most, a helicopter does not need to seat so many people and carry so much supplies.

A helicopter can even seat four or five people, carry a small amount of supplies, and use the remaining space to store fuel. "

Most of the helicopters they seized had a range of less than a thousand kilometers. This method was used before the helicopters were not modified to increase their range.

Although very troublesome, it is very effective.

"That's okay. Just send helicopters, don't we need to send people on the ground?" the second uncle thought.

Li Yu has also thought about this problem.

Although the helicopter has a wide field of view when it is high in the sky, it is not as clear as on the ground, so it is easy to miss something.

Moreover, when a helicopter flies 2,000 kilometers away, its maximum speed is only 300 kilometers per hour, making it impossible to make a round trip on the same day.

It is more dangerous to stop in an unfamiliar place at night.

"No more sending."

Li Yu thought over and over again and still felt that it was unnecessary to send ground troops.

There is no shortage of helicopters at Da Zhangshu Base, and it would be a waste to have dozens of helicopters parked in the base.

It's better to let Lao Luo and the others fly a helicopter out. Even if they can't find the so-called evil star in the northwest, they can still get to know the forces within two thousand kilometers.

It is equivalent to figuring out the distribution of various forces in the end of the world.

The Dazhangshu Base has reached this point, and since it has to leave to the outside world, it must not rest on its laurels. Only by going out can we know what the current world situation is like.

"Yeah." The second uncle nodded.

I sighed in my heart, yes, they have helicopters,

In fact, the strength of Dazhangshu Base is already very strong.

He was originally a little worried. According to what Li Yu said, sending a helicopter high in the sky would definitely be easily discovered and easily exposed.

In the past, the Da Zhangshu Base had always adopted a conservative attitude. Apart from dealing with enemies, it never easily exposed itself to other survivors.

After four or five years of struggling, I got used to it and my thinking did not change.

I still feel that the Da Zhangshu base is weak.

But when the second uncle re-examined the strength of the Dazhangshu Base at this moment, he discovered that the Dazhangshu Base had unknowingly grown into a powerful force.

Once upon a time, when the Da Zhangshu base was first established, there were only dozens of people in the entire base.

He could not even imagine that Da Zhangshu could develop into three places: the Northern Territory, Oil City, and the headquarters base, and directly manage thousands of people. If the affiliated forces of the Northern Territory were included, that would be nearly 20,000 people.

A large force that can indirectly influence hundreds of thousands of people.

It has a variety of heavy weapons, including tanks, armored vehicles, heavy artillery, and helicopters.

Inexplicably, I remembered a sentence: Who else!

Li Yu saw his second uncle in a daze and said:

"Second uncle."

"Huh?" The second uncle raised his head.

"In addition, the Da Zhangshu base logo on the helicopters must be removed with spray paint, and a radio station should be installed on each helicopter to maintain contact."

"Two helicopters form a group, so even if one helicopter has an accident and encounters a sneak attack by strange forces on the ground, the other helicopter can still contact the headquarters base."

"This way we can send people over to rescue."

Second uncle came to his senses,

He glanced at Li Yu with some amazement.

In the apocalypse, it is not when you are weak that you are most dangerous.

It is when your self-confidence is inflated and you think you are the most powerful that you are most dangerous.

Blind self-confidence means that you are not cautious enough and will make mistakes every step of the way.

After reviewing the strength of Da Zhangshu Base just now, he felt a little proud.

Unexpectedly, Xiaoyu remained as calm and cautious as ever, and even thought of these trivial details that were easily overlooked.

Xiaoyu is really stable!

"Xiaoyu, you have thought very carefully." The second uncle said sincerely.

"That's all I've thought about for now. Second uncle, you are more thoughtful than me. Please see if you have anything to add later."

"My" second uncle was a little embarrassed. Hearing Li Yu say this, he felt even more ashamed.

"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll think about it later."

Li Yu nodded, "Second uncle, do you have anything else you want to discuss with me?"

"Do we still need to continue to excavate the bunkers in the base?"

Li Yu hesitated for a few seconds after hearing this. When there were reports of wall-climbing zombies in Oil City at first, he had talked about building a new bunker to expand the underground area.

But I didn’t expect that the problem of wall-climbing zombies would be solved so quickly.

"Build it, but don't allocate too many manpower. There are many things going on now and they all need people. I think we need to increase the planting area, whether it is in the north or at the headquarters base."

“At this stage, the focus is first on expanding the planting area and building a buffer city.

Over there in Oil City is the trading market, so Ju Tianrui must maintain and manage it well. "

"Okay." The second uncle nodded.

"There's nothing else to do. Xiaoyu, I'll arrange it first."

After saying that, the second uncle got up and walked downstairs.

Li Yu stood up to see him off and saw his second uncle out of the yard.

After Li Yuan and the others took care of the courtyard, it became much cleaner and tidier.

Li Yu stretched and looked at the sun hanging in the sky.

I sighed, it feels comfortable when there is sunshine.

The warm sunshine shines on the body, making it warm.

After a morning of sunshine, a lot of water on the ground has evaporated.

The lake under the cliff on the right side of the camphor tree base is sparkling under the sunlight.

There was silence.

There are also zombies in the lake, which will take time to clean up later.

There are still thousands of zombies left in the entire buffer city, and they will be dealt with slowly later.

The second uncle found Lao Luo and Lao Bi and told Li Yu about sending them to the northwest.

The two of them were a little confused. Since they didn't clearly explain their destination, could they just wander around blindly?

In response to their doubts, the second uncle explained:

"The core mission is to find out the various forces. It is best to go to the northwest and take a look."

"Plan your route map and try not to overlap the routes."

Lao Luo thought for a while and asked: "You mean to find other forces? And then report to you?"

"Both near and far, right?"

The second uncle reiterated again: "Northwest, mainly northwest. The main direction of your search is northwest. If you see other forces on the road, you must also register them."

"In the five northwest provinces, you start looking for places that are easy to get to."

The five northwest provinces are Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai and Xin.

Xinjiang is too far away from Da Zhangshu Base, and it is very likely that we will not be able to return from the past.

After Lao Luo and Lao Bi heard about this task, they felt a little tricky.

Flying a helicopter over long distances is a huge load on the body.

And with such a long distance, it is impossible to make a round trip on the same day.

The most important thing is that they must stop to refuel the helicopter on the road. This period of refueling is the most vulnerable time.

Once someone attacks, they can easily be surrounded.

This requires them to find a safer place to stop.

But in these last days, danger is everywhere.

Carrying so much helicopter fuel means that there cannot be too many people sitting in the helicopter.

There is no support from ground personnel.

This task is very difficult.

"Okay, I will listen to your arrangements, President. When will we set off?" Lao Luo only hesitated for a few seconds and then agreed.

Seeing that Lao Luo agreed, Lao Bi quickly said:

"President, I will also obey the arrangement."

When the second uncle saw that they all agreed, a smile appeared on his face.

"Then this matter will be left to you two. As for the departure time, it will be in two days. You can also use these two days to plan the route, maintain the helicopter, and prepare fuel and supplies for departure."

"Yes." The two nodded.
