Chapter 197: Battle in Shashi
"Chief Gu, shall we go up there?"
Wu Yanxia saw that Gu Ming was a little bored staying in the room, so she suggested.
"Is it okay?"
It was quite boring to stay in the room, and it would be more comfortable to stay in his own tank, but Gu Ming couldn't not give face to the Shashi base. Now he heard Wu Yanxia's words, and he asked back with a little joy.
"Okay, let's go." ❃
It's just to take a look at the battle situation last time, what's wrong with that? Wu Yanxia took Gu Ming and Gu Xiao out of the guesthouse and walked along the passage directly to the entrance of a base.
There were many soldiers and logistics personnel coming and going in the passage, and Wu Yanxia took Gu Ming and the others to walk along the wall.
Wu Yanxia took Gu Ming directly to a tall building next to the entrance of the base. This tall building was used as a sentry post for the base and was more than ten stories high.
Walk up the stairs and reach the top floor. There are dozens of soldiers fiddling with various weapons to attack zombies, including sniper rifles, rocket launchers, grenade launchers, etc.
Without interrupting their battle, Wu Yanxia was greeted by an officer. It turned out that this officer was a platoon leader. He had received a notice from his superiors to receive Gu Ming and his men.
Gu Ming took the telescope handed to him by the other party and looked into the distance.
It can be seen that the zombies are still charging towards the wall, but they are blocked by the powerful firepower of the Shashi base and cannot reach 50 meters in front of the wall. The ground is full of zombie corpses, but Gu Ming saw some zombies cleaning up those corpses.
The back of the zombie group is also fighting with various mutant beasts. It can be said that the entire zombie group is attacked by mutant beasts and humans. If the number of zombies is not so terrifying, they would have been slaughtered long ago.
Gu Ming did not see the zombie king. Of course, with millions of zombies, it is wishful thinking to find a zombie king.
Zombies are not mindless attacks. They will throw all kinds of things, so humans still have casualties. This kind of throwing attack makes Gu Ming feel a little strange. He feels that zombies have begun to use tools. This is also the path that humans have taken. Zombies have begun to show signs of the birth of civilization. Will humans really have to fight zombies with weapons they have made in the future? Gu Ming thought with a little worry.
The most conspicuous thing about the Shashi base is the rows of rockets fired at the zombies, which are a bit like Katyusha rockets. This thing has great lethality to the zombies.
"Let's go. Sorry to bother you."
Gu Ming saw that Wu Yanxia was not so interested and had a bit of fear on her face. He knew that no matter how powerful the other party was, she was just a woman. He said to the platoon leader.
As a woman, Wu Yanxia does not like war. It can be said that she has basically not faced zombies or mutants since the end of the world. This is a woman who is protected too well by the government.
Gu Ming didn't know whether this situation was good or bad for Wu Yanxia. You know, in the doomsday era, the official forces may not be able to survive forever, and the Xiaguo Mountain City Base may not be able to remain unattacked.
In fact, the Xiaguo official has already launched the final plan, that is, when the earth is no longer suitable for human survival, they will build a spaceship and fly directly to the moon or Mars. This is also the last hope for mankind.
However, to build a spaceship, it is not only energy power, but also the materials for building spaceships, etc. There are still many aspects to be broken through, and the biggest hope lies in Gu Ming. The new materials this time can also build spaceships. It can be said that the official attaches the most importance to Gu Ming, and even important figures such as Han Mei and Wu Yanxia are not so clear.
Because Gu Ming brought Chu Heng's gang back from the country of Benzi with a nuclear submarine, and did not seal those people, the fact that he has a nuclear submarine that is more advanced than any other country in the world has also been known by the official intelligence agency of Xiaguo.
The Xia country officials also have a final backup plan, that is, if the official cannot build a spaceship, then the official believes that Gu Ming can definitely build a spaceship, and then the official forces can completely merge with the Yuanxin base, which is also the last choice.
Why did the Xia country send Wu Yanxia and Han Mei to negotiate with Gu Ming in the beginning? This is also a fair and aboveboard beauty trap. If Gu Ming really takes a fancy to Wu Yanxia and Han Mei, then these two women will be the best communication bridge between the official and the Yuanxin base in the future.
Although Wu Yanxia and Han Mei did not know the plan of the higher-ups, they could guess part of it. For the sake of the country, they had no complaints, which was why they followed Gu Ming to stay at the Yuanxin base for two days.
The three did not go back to the guesthouse directly, because Gu Ming wanted to go shopping. Thinking of the last time he stayed in the Shashi base for a night and did not go shopping, Wu Yanxia also accompanied Gu Ming and Gu Xiao to go shopping.
There were many ordinary survivors in the passage, and I don’t know if it was because of the zombie group, the survivors all returned to their rooms.
The entire underground base is divided into four floors. The area of the first floor is very large. Gu Ming feels that the underground base is hollowed out from the entire underground of Shashi.
The passage is like a spider web, and the lights are not so bright. If there were no maps and signs at each fork, Gu Ming felt that the three of them would get lost quickly. To go to a farther place, they would just take the subway.
The area is too large. The three of them did not finish the first floor. They just wandered around the second and third floors. The most important thing is the fourth floor, which is also the largest and has the most people. The guesthouse where Gu Ming and his friends live is also on this floor.
The fourth floor has a population of one million, equivalent to the population of a fourth-tier city. It is divided into commercial areas, industrial areas, agricultural areas, leisure areas, residential areas, and a central agency area.
Transportation includes bicycles, electric vehicles, subways, and electric rail cars. The three of them went to the commercial area first.
The commercial area is comparable to the Yuanxin base. It is very lively and crowded. It is much better than the Fengshi base. Of course, the Fengshi base has only 300,000 or 400,000 people. It is normal that there is no commercial area. First, it is unnecessary, and second, there are not so many places for business.
The Shashi base is different. It has a population of more than two million. It can be said that the base management level must be fully set up in all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation, otherwise it is easy to have problems, especially the Shashi base is formed by the merger of the original Shashi and Yangcheng City, Guangnan Province.
Gu Ming can hear people speaking Xiangnan dialect, Yangcheng Cantonese, Guangnan Province, and Xiaguo Mandarin in the crowd. There are all kinds of accents, which sound very mixed.
Most of the shops in the commercial area of Shashi Base are restaurants and clothing stores, and there are some shops selling other things. Gu Ming did not see any supermarkets. He wondered if they could not be opened because of incomplete supplies. He felt that if he sent people to Shashi Base to open a supermarket, he would definitely make a lot of money. However, Gu Ming found that the survivors of Shashi Base took out things like food stamps to buy things.
After listening to Wu Yanxia's explanation, Gu Ming realized that the thing was really the currency issued by Shashi Base - food stamps. This was to use things used in the last century. Survivors had to go to the bank of Shashi Base to exchange other materials for food stamps so that they could consume in the commercial area.
If he opened a supermarket in Shashi Base, Gu Ming felt that Shashi Base might not agree. If he was not careful, he might overwhelm the other party's food stamp currency system. Of course, Gu Ming could ask the management leaders of the base first.
If the management leaders of Shashi Base agreed, Gu Ming felt that Yuanxin Base could start a supermarket in the first-line official bases across Xiaguo, supplying various commodities, and the business would definitely be booming.
