Chapter 515 Western Conference?

It rained continuously for several days.

The air became humid, and the walls were covered with a layer of mist.

In the second outer city, the wall has only been built to 12 meters due to rainfall.

In the outer city, the housing originally planned to be built was not built.

Although there are zombies outside the wall, the number has not accumulated to a certain level, and the threat to the base is not that great.

One is because the height of the base wall has increased to more than ten meters, and the other is because the current zombie wave is not that ferocious in number.

Therefore, although it is currently in a level 2 alert state, the number of people on the wall is about thirty.

I try my best to use crossbows every day to consume some zombies and reduce the number of zombies outside the base. For everyone, this is something we are used to.

Being used to facing zombies, and being used to resisting zombies all day long, made everyone more proficient in using bows and crossbows, and their shooting skills were greatly improved.

Anya took some people from the base and Xu Zhen, who had just joined the team. He had also worked as a drainage engineer before, and together they upgraded the drainage system in the base.

The crops that have just been planted cannot be submerged in water, as they will easily cause root rot, so they and their team are responsible for the irrigation issues at the base.

He Chao and the others also arranged tasks.

Now because it's raining, they haven't gone out to perform tasks and collect supplies, but they can't be idle, so Li Yu told them to do some manual processing work.

Li Yu was not idle either. He, Cannon, Lao Zhou, He Bing and others were in the auto repair shop, modifying the vehicles currently owned by the base.

Everyone else in the base, except for those on duty at the fence, has their own arrangements.

Make sure everyone has something to do.

Because of the rain, everyone was bored in the house and busy with things.

It rained for almost a month.

During this month, several more couples of men and women formed a team in the base.

After a month of hard work, Li Yu and the others finally completed the vehicle they had modified for a long time.

Currently, basically all vehicles are equipped with a fender in front of the vehicle. This fender can be used to rush out when faced with a zombie wave.

The body has also been reinforced.

The population in the first outer city is already quite large.

Because after Lao Qin, He Bing, and Lao Luo joined, the population in the outer city has exceeded one hundred.

When it rains, many people around who have cooperative relationships with the base will come in to temporarily avoid the danger of zombies.

For the previous construction of the second outer city, these people contributed a lot. Of course, the base also contributed nearly a ton of food.

There were about 150 of these people, and at this time, they also set up simple tents on the edge of the outer city.

When they enter the base, they need to turn in all their weapons, and there will be several people watching them for a long time.

So there won't be any trouble.

In a blink of an eye, the plum rain fell for another two or three days.

On this day, Lao Luo suddenly found Li Yu.

"Mr. Li, do you want a tank?" Lao Luo said, his words were like throwing a huge boulder on the lake.

Li Yu was surprised.

"Why, do you know where there are tanks?" Li Yu asked.

Lao Luo said: "Yesterday I heard He Bing said that you were modifying vehicles. I remembered that in South China, there were still a few tanks that had not been driven out of the military camp we escaped from.

I asked Lao Bi, and he also had an impression. However, there were too many zombies there, which was a bit dangerous. "

Li Yu frowned and said, "How many zombies are there?"

Lao Luo said: "At least 50,000, maybe more. And most of them are soldiers."

"What you mean is that most of them are neatly dressed. Do they wear helmets?" Li Yu asked.

"Most of them didn't have time to wear them, but some of them did." Lao Luo said after thinking for a while.

Hearing this, Li Yu thought for a while and asked: "Where?"

"South China, Shaocheng Military Camp." Lao Luo replied.

Li Yu nodded and said: "The distance is not far, but the risk is too high. If there are more than 50,000 zombies, if they are surrounded by zombies in the past, they will definitely die. Although tanks are good, they must have lives to use them. This matter , take a long-term approach.”

Lao Luo also knew that the risk was high, so he mentioned it, knowing that he might not go.

After Lao Luo left, Li Yu looked at the rain that was about to fall in the sky, looking a little lost.

Originally, according to his idea, he didn't want to make the base big, he just wanted to have a small corner.

However, after the apocalypse broke out, the thoughts and suggestions of his family and friends, as well as the constant intrusion of enemies, made him realize that what he had thought before was a little too simple.

All along, the construction and development of the base has been based on the original basis, step by step, and the development has been relatively slow.

This has advantages and disadvantages, but until now, the base has a small population and there is not much pressure on food.

The disadvantage is that if there is a zombie wave of more than 100,000, the base may not be able to resist.

What made Li Yu's mind loosened was Ma Di, who was captured in the chemical plant.

From his mouth, he learned that after the zombie outbreak, a group of people moved to the west. These people have not had contact with them until now.

I don’t know if they are powerful, maybe they have died.

However, precisely because it is unknown, it puts more pressure on people.

Some of the medical equipment originally brought back from the county hospital can be used to solve normal minor illnesses and disasters.

But some of the larger ones are only available in hospitals in further provincial capital cities.

I didn't think of it before, but now Li Yu still feels that he should try to bring these things back to the base.

"When the rain stops, I still have to go to the provincial capital city and search." Li Yu murmured.

It rained like this in July.

July 5th.

The rain that lasted for dozens of days finally stopped.

The reservoir in the mountain pond has long been filled, and the hydroelectric generator on the mountainside has contributed a lot of energy for more than a month, making up for the lack of solar power these days.

Coupled with the batteries saved previously, the power in the base has not stopped.

It stopped raining.

"The rain finally stopped. It's raining all day. It almost suffocated me to death." Yang Tianlong walked out of the room, stretched and complained.

"The rain has stopped, so we have to continue working." Cannon, who lives next door to him, said with a smile.

"Have you heard about it too?" Yang Tianlong said.

Cannon nodded and said, "I heard what Brother Yu said, whether I go out or stay in the base, I will be suffocated to death."

Yang Tianlong joked: "When you go out, you want to come back, and when you come back, you want to go out. You are really pissed off."

Cannon said: "Isn't this a siege? But, I am also used to this exciting life.

Do I really want to go back to the same old life, or is the current life more suitable for me. Doing tasks is exciting, and I feel very happy to have a group of brothers like you here. "

Yang Tianlong smiled and said nothing. It was obvious that he agreed with what Cannon said.

The rain has stopped, but construction in the base will continue.

This point still follows the original general direction.

He Chao, Lao Qin and others, as well as some people who cooperated with the base, were responsible for transporting the raw materials back.

Ding Jiu and the five workers, as well as He Bing and a dozen other people, plus some people from the base, a total of more than 30 people were responsible for the construction.

On this day, Li Yu found his second uncle and the others and told them about going to the provincial capital city and bringing back medical equipment and medicines from the city hospital.

No one had an opinion.

This time, Li Yu planned to lead the team out by himself. Because he had to carry more equipment, there were more people going.

"Third uncle, you stay at the base and guard the safety of the base." Li Yu said to his third uncle.

Then, he said to his uncle: "Uncle, you are responsible for the construction of the outer city and the safety of their transportation."

Both said there was no problem

Li Yu was relieved. This time, he was prepared as before, except for the two brothers Cannon, Tianlong, and Li Gangtie.

He also planned to bring Lao Lu and Lao Lu over.

Almost the 35th person.

After setting everything up, Li Yu and the others loaded the food, water, and weapons prepared in the base into the car.

In addition to the Unimog, and two other modified RVs.

There are also 3 pickup trucks and 5 heavy goods vehicles.

This truck has a capacity of 20 tons and can transport even the heaviest medical equipment.

In order to be able to move some heavier medical equipment, they also brought some specially transported equipment.

The continuous rain a few days ago made the air clear.

In the past two days, the sun has come out, and the wet ground has become dry.

Outside the wall, the zombies that had been surrounding the base dispersed due to the sun these past two days.

I don't know where to hide, maybe in the river, maybe in the ditch of the mountain forest, maybe in a cave somewhere.

Just wait until it gets dark and come out again.

………

7 a.m. the next morning.

The sun is out and there is no fog.

A group of people set off from the Da Zhangshu base.

Everyone on the wall watched Li Yu and the others leave.

Boom~

The vehicle starts...

Shortly after they left, some convoys came from the next province.

It is less than 80 kilometers away from Xincheng.

These convoys are well-equipped, each has its own firearms, and everyone looks like a member of the team.

These people are searching for all kinds of things around the city.

What is different from many survivors is that these people have ruddy faces, not the pale faces of ordinary survivors due to lack of nutrition and food.

"Brother Tian, ​​you said that after we joined the Western Conference, although we have food, we are still too frustrated. Why, every time we come out and take risks to help them find those messy things. "

Among them, a man with short hair but sharp eyes said.

The man wearing leather boots and military uniform, known as Brother Tian, ​​frowned and said:

"I want to have food, but I don't want to pay. Where can so many good things come from? What's more, the order we received in the first place was to protect them."

The smart young man who looked to be in his early twenties said: "That's not what I meant, Brother Tian, ​​I just wanted to fight for you. Why?"

The man in leather boots looked at the men on the other side and said, "That incident has passed. Now we are eating in others' houses. Don't say such things again in the future."

The young man glared at those luxuriously dressed and arrogant people.

Then the search resumed.

………

But they said that after Li Yu and the others left the Da Zhangshu base, they headed north.

After the locust plague, the fields were originally bare.

Now, because of the continuous rain for a month, it is also spring and summer, the time when all things grow.

Therefore, the leaves on the branches are quite dense.

There is plenty of rain and the fields are green.

This made everyone who had been bored at the base feel much happier when they saw the gorgeous field scenery.

Fresh air blows in from the car window.

Li Yu said to Lao Luo next to him: "Recently, are you still adapting to the base?"

Lao Luo was blinded by the wind from the car window, rubbed his hands and said, "It's pretty good, and the atmosphere is also very friendly. Lao Bi said that he will retire here."

Li Yu looked up at Lao Bi with a smile and said, "Lao Bi, it's too early to provide for old age."

Lao Bi chuckled and said, "You're just kidding, our base doesn't support idlers. I like to work."

Everyone laughed.

From south to north.

We still took the same road as before. Lao Lu and his third uncle had walked there before, so they were relatively familiar with it.

Driving a car and looking at the scenery outside the window feels like driving.

However, after they drove for two hours, they were blocked by landslides, debris and trees in front of them.

Ga~

The Unimog at the front stopped.

Li Tie shouted to Li Yu in the RV: "Brother, the road ahead is blocked."

Li Yu climbed to the top of the RV and looked ahead. He found that the road ahead stretched for hundreds of meters and was filled with gravel.

There is also yellow mud, which has been dried due to the sun these days.

Li Yu looked at the hillsides on both sides and saw that the hillsides above were all uneven. It seemed that it was caused by the continuous rain in the previous battle.

This road is a national highway, the closest way to the provincial capital city.

If you take a detour, you may have to take a lot of wrongful detours.

But the current road is really troublesome to clean up. For them, it's not necessary.

In the middle of the road, there are several large rocks weighing several tons.

It's too much trouble to move away.

Li Yu took out the walkie-talkie and said to Lao Lu behind the car: "The last time you went to and from the provincial capital city, did you take the expressway? Are there many expressways?"

Lao Lu said: "When we went, we took the expressway, and when we came back, we took the national highway. There are some high-speed cars, but not too many. What's the matter? Mr. Li. Let's stop now?"

Li Yu said: "There's a landslide ahead and it's blocked. We can't walk."

Lao Lu was silent for a moment and said, "Let's take the expressway. There are some cars, but it's still fairly smooth."

"Um."

"Tiezi, take a detour and take the highway." Li Yu said to Li Tie.

As Li Tie made a U-turn, the vehicles behind him also followed him, and they also saw the front one after another, and the road was blocked.

Take a detour and drive at high speed.
