Retake Wanghai City from Xenomorphs?

I have to say that this is a very tempting proposition, and it now seems that NAC does have the ability to do so.

Before the war, Wanghai City was not only an important economic center for pan-Asian cooperation, but also an industrial base with high-tech industries as the core. If the entire city of Wanghai can be brought under control, the speed of restoring pre-war technology from the ruins will undoubtedly be much faster.

But this brings us to another issue.

While it is true that xenomorphs threaten the lives of the survivors, the subcrystals they provide are also the cornerstone of the survivors' industrial development. The power station in the sixth block needs it, as do the fuel rods from cars to power armor. Survivors who were unable to obtain helium-4 from the moon to produce fusion batteries relied on subcrystalline fuel rods of the same specification to power pre-war equipment.

For example, in Vault 27 now, this fuel rod is used.

The Sixth Block's source of income depends on the hunting ground of Wanghai City, and if the xenomorphs in this steel-concrete forest are cleared, the hunting groups that depend on it for their livelihood will have to travel farther to get their prey.

However, Jiang Chen hesitated for only two minutes before making a choice.

Regain Wanghai City.

The reason is simple, from hunting to farming, it is the only way for barbarism to civilization. And this first step towards civilization is something that NAC must one day take. Jiang Chen can't always provide food here, the total population of NAC is only tens of thousands now, and what about hundreds of thousands in the future?

As for the problem of farming, if you are willing to pay the cost, there is actually a way to solve it. The Garden of Eden Project controlled by Lin Ling. With the current productivity of the NAC, it is not impossible to establish a closed biosphere on the outskirts of Wanghai City.

As for the source of the crystals. Jiang Chen actually had another idea in his heart, but he wanted to turn it into reality. It will also need to be discussed with the biologists in Vault 27.

After coming out of the community center, Jiang Chen came directly to the open space of the Aerospace Science and Technology Research Institute, where he found Jiang Lin, who had just returned to the surface.

It's also funny, I saw that this guy was playing with the wrench while walking around the BM-21 rocket launcher that Jiang Chen bought. This picture is like a modern rocket expert in the 21st century, messing around a Ming Dynasty "Divine Fire Flying Crow".

The soldiers on the side were looking at Jiang Lin nervously, for fear that he would dismantle this thing.

He doesn't care about scientific research or not, as a gunner responsible for launching rockets, he only knows that this thing has wiped out half of the city's zombies and xenomorphs. The whining majesty. Even though two days had passed, he still remembered it vividly.

"Do you see something famous?" Walking up to him, Jiang Chen asked casually.

While nodding, Jiang Lin sighed: "The design is very simple, and it can even be described as primitive, whether it is a directional tube or an ignition system. The resulting rockets also did not add any guidance functions, suppressing the target purely with saturated coverage. Combined with the coagulation of gas, oil, and bombs, which are artifacts that kill biological targets, there is indeed no better way to deal with zombie xenomorphs than this thing. But I'm afraid this thing will put a lot of pressure on logistics, right?"

Jiang Chen smiled mysteriously. He was not answered this question.

Just kidding, is logistics a problem for me?

"The logistical pressures are there, but they are not insurmountable. I need you to help me design a similar cluster rocket launcher that doesn't require any anti-natural guidance. It is only necessary to send more than thirty kilograms of combat parts to a few tens of kilometers away. The power is greater than this old antique, and the error is smaller than this old antique. Can you do it?"

"It's easy, just change the composition of the propulsion fuel and explosives. The problem is in the material. It's harder than anything to find oil in the wasteland. If the problem of raw materials can be solved, it will not be difficult to produce such a luxury weapon. Jiang Lin nodded. After a pause, he suddenly remembered something and asked. "So do you still need to build the Dolphin-10 ballistic missile?"

"Of course I need to, I have other uses for nuclear bombs. Jiang Chen smiled.

Jiang Lin scratched the back of his head and said helplessly: "Okay, since you insist." ”

After the rocket is arranged, the next thing is the issue of subcrystalline production.

The xenomorph tide had ended, and Wang Zhaowu began to prepare to lead the Second Corps back to Camp 27. When Jiang Chen came out of the Aerospace Science and Technology Research Institute, the convoy of the Second Corps was already lined up at the gate, waiting for Wang Zhaowu to give the order to set off.

"Marshal. After seeing Jiang Chen, Wang Zhaowu gave a military salute.

"No need to be polite. Are you ready to leave for Camp 27?"

"Yes, our soldiers are ready. Wang Zhaowu said.

"Then take me for a ride, I just happened to be going there too. Jiang Chen said.

"Okay!" Wang Zhaowu nodded, and immediately went to arrange a place for Jiang Chen.

About ten minutes passed, and the convoy of the First Corps finally finished loading. As the gates of the base opened, the convoy began to slowly hit the road under the watchful eyes of the survivors.

Along the way, there were scorched corpses all over the field, and halfway through the convoy, Jiang Chen saw a mountain of flesh kneeling in the middle of the road. Its complexion was hideous, and its whole body was darker than that of a black man. Seeing that it was blocking the way of the convoy, the assault infantry vehicle that Jiang Chen was sitting on turned the top machine gun, and only a few shots suddenly burst out lightly, and the black coal seemed to be like a mountain of flesh and shattered into carbon cubes like honeycomb coal.

Running over the "cinders", the convoy continued forward. The tragic situation along the way is really a little disgusting, but for the determined end times, it is just an ordinary landscape.

Jiang Chen, who was sitting in the car, turned off the camera of the observation port, leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.

After about an hour's drive, the convoy finally reached the gate of Camp 27. When setting up the floor washing, the First Corps did not let go of this dead end, so at this moment, the entire black and dark area of Camp 27 looked like it was on fire. However, the materials on the surface have basically been moved underground, and it doesn't matter if the remaining cement is burned casually.

The door opened, and the inside was also a mess.

The zombies who smell the breath of the living will not let go of this place because of the withdrawal of the Second Corps, and the wall of more than ten meters is a matter of thousands and hundreds of zombie meat pads.

The corpses were piled up at the entrance of the elevator, and the sappers jumped out of the car, put on gas masks, and worked for a while with shovels, and finally cleaned up the charcoal ash piled up at the entrance of the elevator.

", the people of the First Corps are really ruthless. After getting out of the car with Jiang Chen, Wang Zhaowu grinned and couldn't help but laugh and scold.

"We're going to have to be ruthless, or we'll have to face a bunch of zombies crawling over the wall when we come back. Jiang Chen joked.

"That's right. But the sappers who were in charge of cleaning up the battlefield had a big head. After teasingly, Wang Zhaowu said goodbye to Jiang Chen and walked to the truck at the back of the convoy.

He now needs to make immediate arrangements for the redeployment of fixed weapons. At the time of evacuation, the machine guns and electromagnetic guns on the fence were pulled back to the Fish Bone Base, and now they have been pulled back, so naturally they need to be reinstalled.

At the same time, the current bird-like picture in the camp is obviously uninhabitable if it is not cleaned up much.

Without disturbing the work of the Second Corps, Jiang Chen walked straight in the direction of the elevator of the refuge. (To be continued.) )
