Li Guotao followed Luke and continued to go deep into the center of the production department of the base, and the more he went inside, the tighter the defense, Li Guotao couldn't help but wonder what was being produced to make Luke so choked and hidden.

Luke led Li Guotao to the door of the warehouse where the weapons were stored, the warehouse at this time has changed greatly, there are many chimneys sticking out of the top, and there is a thick concrete anti-shelling bunker on top to protect it, and after showing his identity information, Luke took Li Guotao into the underground warehouse.

As soon as he entered the door, a deafening roar came, and Li Guotao asked curiously and loudly, "What are you doing down there?" Why is it so loud! ”

Luke Thief smiled and said, "Come with me!" Then he took Li Guotao down to the underground warehouse, where all the equipment in the middle of the huge warehouse had been transferred, and instead of a lathe sparkling sparks, the piercing grinding sound made people get goosebumps.

The place where the huge roar came from was the corner of the workshop, and the two huge engines made a huge roar under the debugging of the staff on the side, Li Guotao looked at the lathe below and then looked at the engine tested on the side, his eyes widened in shock, and he said in a trembling tone: "Are you producing high-horsepower engines!?" Incredible! Incredible! That's impossible! You must be lying to me! ”

Luke looked at Li Guotao, who was already incoherent, and laughed: "What am I lying to you for, it's not a jet engine, besides, in World War II, the Maozi Tractor Factory built tanks, and we collected machine tools from more than a dozen industrial parks around it, can't we even build a World War II-level engine?" ”

Luke handed Li Guotao an earplug and took him directly to the front of the two engines, the two engines were running at full strength on the platform, Li Guotao looked at the engine in front of him and was doing the comparison test curiously, and he was still talking to himself when he left and continued to walk forward.

On the way, Li Guotao asked Luke curiously: "What is the horsepower of your engine?" What about the yield? Luke was asked this, and he was very hesitant, but after thinking about it, even if he said it, it wouldn't be anything, anyway, now it's all in this world, and he is not afraid of others coming to grab technology.

Luke said: "This engine is our reverse imitation of the B2-54 series engine on the Type 59 tank, the original horsepower is 520, our technology level is limited, we can only produce about 500 horsepower engines for our tank factory to use, but the impact is not big, as for the output, because many parts are difficult to manufacture, can only be made 3 units a week." ”

Li Guotao nodded when he heard this, and suddenly Li Guotao shouted loudly: "What are you talking about!?" You can still build tanks!! Luke was stunned when he heard this, looked at Li Guotao blankly and said, "Didn't you see it when you came that day?" Otherwise, where did I get those tanks from? ”

Li Guotao was in a trance and was taken to the tank workshop, the current tank factory has stopped the production of several other tanks, and is now making every effort to copy the T34 tank, because of the previous accumulated experience, the output has risen a lot, in order to ensure the production speed of two vehicles per week, and a lot of improvements have been made.

The original 45mm front armor is now increased to 70mm, and the turret is designed to resemble a World War II Leopard tank in order to simplify the process, which is directly welded from steel plates, 75mm on the front and 45mm on the side, and the firepower configuration is a chassis composed of an imitation of the 2A28 low-pressure 73mm gun with a 14.5mm machine gun, and a water-cooled 12.7mm machine gun is on top.

Li Guotao walked around the tank being assembled and asked, "What did you do with the tracks of your tank?" Didn't I remember that tracks were not very difficult to make? Luke smiled and said: "We are ready-made, don't you see that the tank uses 59 load wheels and tracks?" Besides, if we are in a hurry, we can also go directly to the all-steel tracks! It's not so much detail now."

After visiting the tank factory and the rest of the weapons production workshop, Luke took Li Guotao to the agricultural department, which was originally a barren park has become a large greenhouse next to each other, and a slogan was hung at the door of the agricultural production department, which made Li Guotao very surprised. The slogan reads: "Strive to produce more food!" Socially handed! The rest is all our own! Logistics production! Also an important battle! ”

Luke looked at Li Guotao, who was staring at the slogan in a daze, pushed Li Guotao, and said: "Don't be surprised, just learn from the valuable experience of your predecessors, indirect experience, otherwise productivity will not come!" ”

Li Guotao nodded, didn't speak, and went in alone, Luke was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the soldier next to him helplessly, and the guard next to him couldn't help but smile and said, "I guess he was scared stupid, haha!" Luke nodded, and laughed along.

Li Guotao was like a fool in the greenhouse, looking left and right, and kept asking the staff a lot of questions, and when Luke found him, Luke laughed completely crazy, only to see Li Guotao sitting by the fence of the chicken farm, his eyes were dull, and he muttered in his mouth: "Impossible!" I must be dreaming! ...”

Luke stepped forward and forced a smile and said, "Comrade Li Guotao? Have you thought about it? Are you alright? Li Guotao looked up blankly and said, "Think about it, think about it, is it a fool not to come?" I have to come! ”

There was a commotion in the sleepless city that night, the earth emperor and Guo Jinhao were especially excited, Li Guotao and Luke, who had the strongest level of force in the sleepless city, and their people left the sleepless city, and the ownership of that place made the two bigwigs have a fierce fight.

Back at the base, a huge convoy stretching for two kilometers slowly drove towards the gate of the base, and the heavily guarded gate of the base slowly opened, and in the eyes of these vegetable-faced survivors, there were no soldiers holding weapons to guard against them as they imagined, nor were there many machine gun sentry posts.

There are lanterned roads and welcoming crowds that lead them directly to their own neighborhoods, where people who have experienced famine, rebel sieges, and displaced people begin to weep when they see the brightly lit neighborhoods.

After temporarily relocating the nearly 10,000 refugee team, all the newcomers were gathered at dinner time in the former shopping mall's converted restaurant, and the elderly and children were given special nutritious meals, which made the people who had experienced the famine salivate.

Under everyone's gaze, Li Guotao and Liu Qi jointly announced that they had officially joined the base and that all new joiners would enjoy the benefits of the base, which caused warm applause from the audience.

The current population of the base has swelled rapidly to about 65,000, almost tripling. The huge population has been replenished to various positions, especially the replenishment of skilled workers, so that the industrial production of the base can quickly increase production.

A lot of machine tools that have been collected but cannot be operated are now because of these skilled workers to operate, many parts that are difficult to produce can now be produced, Liu Qi decided to start trying to manually imitate the Type 59 tank according to the current good state of industrial productivity has been greatly improved.

Because of the entry of skilled machining manufacturers, many precision instruments can be manufactured and improved, such as the 73mm low-bore pressure gun that was originally equipped in small batches has been improved to 80mm caliber, expanding the charge of armor-piercing shells.

The original 73mm tail stabilized armor-piercing projectile has a armor-piercing thickness of only 300mm, and the penetration power has been improved after increasing the charge, and it can already penetrate 400mm homogeneous steel armor, which means that the Type 69 and Type 59 tanks without explosive reactive armor can already threaten the front, and the side of the Type 96 tank is also a great threat.

The demographic dividend has allowed the base to be extravagant, many soldiers with average physical fitness have been replaced by soldiers with better health, and the quality of the soldiers in the base has been greatly improved, and the current strength of the base has been as high as about 15,000 people, which can be said to be the army with the highest level and quality in this piece of land in the urban area.

The rapid expansion of the population at the same time the problem of food shortage began to return to people's field of vision, the original park has been covered, Liu Qi ordered Luke to take down the riverside community park, but when marching to the riverside park, something happened that made everyone afraid every time they recalled it,

Early in the morning, Luke and Zhao Zhuoyuan led a special team with several trucks and an infantry chariot to assemble at the gate of the base, waiting for the loading of ammunition and the distribution of weapons, which are now fully managed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, eliminating all possible corruption.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and now the temperature has dropped to a terrible temperature of about minus 25 degrees Celsius every day because of the lack of sun, and even if you are wearing thick clothes, the biting cold wind still makes people feel no warmth.

Li Mansha and Cheng Xiaorui were so cold that they jumped around, making Luke and Zhao Zhuoyuan laugh, Zhao Zhuoyuan said sullenly to Luke through the mask: "Do you know? Now the new refugees are complaining about us. “

Hearing this, Luke asked curiously, "What are you complaining about us?" Do you need some wine to eat and drink? Zhao Zhuoyuan punched Luke and said, "You're scared of you, can you not be so serious when you're fine?" Those who don't know think you're paralyzed! “

Luke couldn't hold back when he heard this, and said with a smile: "What about teasing you, what did you say?" I've been practicing my marksmanship for the past two days, and I haven't paid attention to what is going on outside. Zhao Zhuoyuan said helplessly: "You, I'm sorry for you, forget it, I'll tell you directly, the men among the newcomers are going crazy these two days, don't you know, your brother had to redistribute glowing paper to men because of insufficient toilet paper production, hahaha"

"You don't know that a row of glowing butts can laugh at you every night when the voice-activated light in the toilet is dark! Hahaha! Luke also burst out laughing when he heard this, so Luke and Zhao Zhuoyuan both began to squat on the ground like fools and laugh, and Li Mansha and Cheng Xiaorui also came over curiously when they heard the sound.

After Luke finished speaking breathlessly, the two girls were stunned for a moment, then closed their eyes and imagined for a while, and began to laugh wildly, after a while, Zhao Zhuoyuan relieved a little, and then continued: "You don't know, they also made up a joke for this paper, magic mushroom paper, a good helper to save electricity, who uses it shiny!" Now go to the store in the new resettlement area and tell the clerk directly about the shiny toilet paper and they will bring it to you. Hahaha"

Five minutes later, a few people got into the truck with red faces, tears in their eyes and smiles on their faces, which caused a burst of laughter from the surrounding soldiers, but the joke could not be opened again outside the gate, after all, the area outside the high wall was not the absolute safety zone of the base.

Leaving the base, everyone headed towards the riverside park a block away, the current residential area has begun to be insufficient, and after the riverside park is recovered, the base can also expand some territory by the way, and make room for the residential area.

On the way, I met the reconnaissance team who had just returned to the base, and they said that there were only about 300 zombies in the riverside park in front of them, and Luke relaxed when he heard it, only 300, and a team of more than 100 people was not enough to stuff his teeth, and the atmosphere in the convoy was lively for a while.

Just when everyone was laughing and laughing in the car, the armored car suddenly braked suddenly, and everyone didn't react and was thrown out of their seats.

Then there was a dull sound of heavy machine gun fire in the truck in front, and everyone in the car hurriedly got up, Luke dragged Li Mansha, loaded the MG42 in his hand, opened the firing port, and looked around.

There was nothing outside, and the news came from the 92-step chariot that was at the head: "Five mutant zombie dogs have been found ahead!" So far, it's been killed! ”

Everyone didn't feel anything, sat up and continued to chat, and soon the armored car stopped at the entrance of the riverside park, and everyone easily got out of the car with their guns.

The sparse zombies in the riverside park made everyone very relaxed, and everyone got off the bus and pointed at those zombies casually.

Zhao Zhuoyuan got out of the car and killed a zombie casually, and said indifferently: "These zombies are not enough for me to stuff my teeth!"

The crowd didn't feel any danger, and some of the fighters even got together to joke. Luke and Li Mansha practice marksmanship with Type 85 sniper rifles against zombies in the distance.

Luke aimed his rifle at a zombie, and with a strong blow from his shoulder, the zombie's chest was punched by a bullet and fell to the ground weakly.

Crackling gunshots rang out around the park, and the number of zombies in the park began to dwindle, and suddenly Luke saw a running corpse struggling through the snow in the snow-covered jungle.

The corners of Luke's mouth turned up slightly, and he calmed his breathing, then pulled the trigger, and the bullet hit the running corpse with precision.

But after this running corpse fell, several more running corpses that had never been seen before appeared in view.

The running corpse in the sniper scope looks very ugly, its body glows green, and there are a lot of pustules on the epidermis, its eyes look surprisingly large without eyelids, and the most terrifying thing is that its arms are like spikes like crazy corpses, which looks very dangerous.

Luke looked at Zhao Zhuoyuan strangely, Zhao Zhuoyuan also happened to come over, the two looked at each other with a puzzled expression, and just when Luke was about to speak, Li Mansha suddenly shouted in panic: "Look at you!" What a lot of crazy corpses! ”

The shrill screams attracted the surrounding warriors, and everyone looked over to see a dozen bare muscles and hot air spewing from the snowy dead wood, and the wild corpses were running in the solid snow with a low roar.

Everyone hurriedly set up their weapons and aimed at these terrible mad corpses and fired continuously, but one group fell and the next one rushed out, and more and more, and the large-caliber heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles began to fire.

The 14.5mm and 12.7mm bullets continued to bring up a piece of stump and flesh in the zombie horde, but it had no effect at all, and more and more zombies began to appear. The barren bullets couldn't stop these hordes of horrible corpses.

Then the soldiers on the flanks suddenly began to retreat, and one of the soldiers said in a trembling voice: "Sir, hurry up!" There are at least a few thousand zombies on the side streets! I can't stand it! ”

Luke's face changed when he heard this, and he shouted loudly: "All get in the car!" Contact the base! Shrink the defense!"

Then the group began to board the bus, and when the last soldier got into the car, a running corpse appeared at the end of the street.

Then, in the frightened eyes of everyone, hundreds of zombies appeared at the end of the road, and the vibration of the footsteps seemed to be felt in the car.

The convoy was moving forward at a rapid pace, and the engine was making a sturdy roar due to the excessive speed of the engine. The water in the water-cooled jacket of the M2HB heavy machine gun on the tail car has begun to boil, and the steam from the exhaust hole is spraying wildly, and the machine gun is constantly sucking the chain of bullets into the chamber.

But the terrible thing is that there are more and more zombies and they are getting closer and closer, the base has received relevant reports, 82mm mortars have begun to fire continuously, and the soldiers at the gate are waiting.

The guards, who had not felt that the situation was serious, were completely blinded when the convoy appeared in view.

I saw that the tires of the pickup armored car at the back had been stuck by the corpses of the zombies, and the zombies began to climb on it continuously, and the machine guns on the car could only fight back weakly.

The driver's desperate voice came over the radio, and the driver said resolutely with a crying voice: "Road sir! Take care of my nephew! The kindness of the base! It's back in the next life! ”

Then, before everyone could react, the pickup truck suddenly turned and fell across the road, and a group of zombies were directly hit by the pickup truck.

Luke watched this scene from the firing port being blocked by the fast-closing iron door, couldn't help but close his eyes and raised his face, and whispered, "Hero, let's go!" ”

Then a loud explosion was heard, and the explosives and ammunition loaded inside the pickup truck were detonated. Like a rain, the flying stumps fell on the concrete roof of the wall.

Luke covered Li Mansha's eyes, he watched blankly as the windshield wipers on the car kept brushing away the minced meat and dirty blood, and the sound of minced meat and blood falling on the roof of the car crackled and made people extremely sick to their stomachs.

The leather overturned truck was loaded with 50 rounds of 82mm mortar shells, and the explosion was terrifying.

Looking at the flesh and blood on the glass, the faces of everyone around him were gloomy at this moment, and the corpse tide was coming, and it was an extremely terrifying scale!

All the high-level leaders of the base in Liu Qi's office gathered, and Luke stood aside and frowned and said: "I personally speculate that this corpse tide is because of the disappearance of the population of the surrounding towns, the zombies have lost their food, and then they began to gather, and a large area of migration has caused this corpse tide!" ”

Zhao Zhuoyuan also said on the side: "This morning, I went out of the sewer with a sniper unit, and when I went to the top of the tax bureau building, good guy!" There are hundreds of thousands! A large piece of black pressure. ”

Liu Qi looked at the map of the urban area and frowned, looking at the neighborhood that was almost full of red lines on the map, and helplessly held his forehead.

On the side of the city wall of Diamond City, the guards of Diamond City looked at the zombies outside in horror, and weakly took the spear in their hands to pierce the heads of the zombies below.

Guang Changchun sat on the chair and looked at the corpses outside through the glass, squinting his eyes and smoking the cigar in his hand continuously, and said to Fang Yuan, who had lost a lot of weight on the side: "Xiao Fang! What do you think this wave of corpses can bring us? ”

Fang Yuan frowned and thought carefully for a long time, but he still couldn't think of it, he bowed his head and bowed his back, and said respectfully: "The subordinates are stupid, I hope the leader will advise." ”

Guang Changchun laughed when he heard this, slowly extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray, looked into the distance, and said slowly: "Xiaofang! I'm old, my body I know, my time is short! But why did I ask you to be my successor? It's because you're smart and forbearing! ”

Fang Yuan was stunned when he heard this, he didn't know what to say, sweat flowed down intensively, and then Guang Changchun continued: "This corpse tide is a challenge for all people, you see that we have a thin foundation, but we have a thick backing!" This zombie tide is our chance to turn over! ”

"Although we are surrounded now, you also know that wealth is in danger! Look well! When I think you're about the same, you'll take over! ”

Hearing this, Fang Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The walls of the base have been completely filled with zombies, and in order to save bullets, the base has ordered a total ceasefire, waiting for the next order.

The opinions of the combat departments in the base were constantly discussed, and from time to time there were fierce debates.

The last three options were left behind, and the third option was the use of thermite bombs in conjunction with mortars for routine clearance, which was the least dangerous but most costly.

The second option is to attract zombies, get them out of the base range, and then shoot them with cannonballs.

The third option is the most dangerous and efficient, but it is the most difficult, and it is called the suicide operation.
