Chapter 438: Shelter
Su Hao had done his best, but after half an hour, several government officials escorted by black-clothed soldiers began to make contact with the residents.
As Qiu Yu said. They do pay attention to image. Contrary to the strength when he came into contact with Su Hao, he had obviously abandoned most of the people here, but he still showed a refreshing smile, and described the impossible and impossible bright future for the survivors in a passionate tone.
Even if you want to take away all the adult males, it is not safe for them to become a refuge in their mouths, and it is necessary for someone with the strength to build it first, and it will not be long before they come here to pick everyone up. This will not deceive the people who stay for long, but as long as they can be deceived now, they will no longer need to worry about future problems.
Qiu Yu used this half hour to unlock five more B-rank and two C-rank missions. But Qiu Yu can't do it perfectly, and the efficiency of other players can be imagined. Ninety-eight single adult males are leaving. For this group of people alone, together with the first part to be completed, there are only thirty-one B-ranks unlocked, not even a third.
In addition, the good news is that this government's unilateral plundering has been turned into a population transaction by Qiu Yu. Su Hao paid one hundred and thirty-four adult males in advance, and the return was eight assault rifles, eleven corps/pistols, dozens of magazines and grenades. It's not a one-time deal, it's going to be something else when the government comes back to pick who needs it and takes away the adult men who come here in the future.
Shortly after the deal was struck, another large transport helicopter hovered to the roof.
The helicopter's rotors are more than 25 meters in diameter and can transport more than 30 people at a time. But it's such a Big Mac, and the sound it makes is not much louder than a car engine. This noise-reducing technology alone threw the helicopters of the Zero Division a few streets away. Su Hao had to reassess the strength of the government in this world.
Of course, Qiu Yu will not be the first to go. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qiu Yu explained the important matter to Su Hao again.
"The unlocking of future houses will be prioritized from near to far, followed by the direction of the police station, and if you have enough time, try to unlock all the C-level and above. I'm afraid that after the difficulty of the day after tomorrow increases, it will be difficult to move outside. If this happens, use the unlocked future house as a node and transfer it to the laboratory. ”
"The day after tomorrow to transfer? Didn't you say it's hard just to move outside? Even if we're lucky, there will be at least one or two hundred meters between the houses in the direction of the laboratory, right? That's a distance where a bunch of people can die right now. ”
"It won't be long before Qian Xiao will come here. With him, a few more trips would have been enough to get everyone to the lab safely. If it doesn't work, let him call the Nine Tails and Li Ningfeng again. However, this is the place where we communicate and do business with the government, and people who heard the announcement before will continue to come here, so we can't all go away. Depending on the situation, the three of them can take turns sitting here. Don't hold on, if even they can't hold on, then give up here completely. ”
Su Hao hesitated, "Let's just go to the laboratory, won't we lead people from the government over?" ”
"Don't worry about that. With the game's intelligence control, in their eyes, they can't tell where the lab is superior to other buildings. After completely abandoning the N75, take the initiative to get them to the lab to continue trading with you. Once all the existing unlocks are complete, try to get someone to come with them, or send some players to their shelter to develop new unlocks. ”
When the transport plane and helicopter arrived for the fourth time, Qiu Yu finally reminded, "The greater value of broadcasting now is to spread information than to convene people." Put in all the information about unlocking and what you want to say to the player, we don't need to worry about anything, just be practical. Also, you can discuss anything you can't decide with Qian Xiao, don't underestimate him. ”
After the helicopter took off, there was no situation where the windows were covered or the occupants were blindfolded, so Qiu Yu threw away his gas mask and seized this rare opportunity to observe the terrain and the movement of zombies from a high place.
It's a pity that this observation time will not be too long. It took only 20 minutes for the helicopter to make a round trip, and in addition to the time to get on and off the plane, it took seven or eight minutes to get from the N75 building to the shelter each way. But in fact, in less than five minutes, the helicopter began to land on the roof of a building with more than 20 floors.
When he flew closer, Qiu Yu found that the building was actually hollow. The helicopter enters from the top of the building and descends all the way down the interior of the building. Finally, after descending more than a few dozen meters of the building, it stopped in an underground plaza the size of a football field.
Seeing that the helicopter had completely shut down, the black-clothed soldiers nearby made a few gestures upward, and the entrance to the roof of the building, which was nearly 100 meters high, was shut under the sound of humming machinery. The entire underground plaza is quite bright, and it is not dimmed by the natural light source in the slightest.
Qiu Yu looked around. This underground plaza has several entrances. Each entrance is quite wide, and it is impossible for helicopters to cross, but enough for combat vehicles to pass. Judging from the traces left on the ground, it should have been full of vehicles with considerable weight not long ago.
On the high platforms around the square, there were still a few machine guns, but no one was there to control them. I don't know if it's a lack of urgency or a lack of staff.
"You guys, come with me over here." A black-clad soldier counted the number of people and led the group to one of the entrances. Although he didn't look back, perhaps because he had many handling experiences, a set of rhetoric that could calm the people's tension, but not too contrived, was said fluently, "From fuel to weapons, from food to daily necessities, there are a lot of reserves here." The other entrances are classified by type of storage and cannot be approached without authorization. Now we are taking this road to the residential area. Ordinary people, soldiers and government officials, all live here. ”
The entrance aisle to the residential area is not long. After more than ten meters, you can see that there are rooms on both sides of the wide driveway where you are walking. Qiu Yu glanced in as he passed an open room. The depth of these rooms was quite amazing, at least Qiu Yu didn't see his head at a glance. The room was filled with bunk beds of the exact same style, and some black-clad soldiers were resting on their beds, or gathering in groups to talk between the beds. When a group of people passed by the door, some people waved in greeting.
The soldier who led the crowd made a brief introduction, "These are the barracks of the army, thirty in all, each of which can accommodate one squadron. ”
"Isn't there three brigades here?"
Qiu Yu heard the familiar voice, and the perception spread over, and found that the person who asked the question was Jabba, who was extremely excited to hand over the house to him not long ago.
The soldier seemed to have been waiting for someone to ask this question, and as soon as Jabba's voice fell, he immediately replied, "There are sixty barracks at the other two entrances in front of us, plus ten squadrons scattered to guard the key personnel and positional order, there is a total of one wing here. ”
The soldier's words made the aborigines beside Qiu Yu show expressions of surprise and relief.
Qiu Yu patted Jabba on the shoulder, "Explain to me the troop establishment here." ”
Recognizing that it was Qiu Yu, the corners of Jabba's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly, "A squad of twelve, ten squadrons for a squadron, ten squadrons for a brigade, ten brigades for a wing, and ten wings for a legion." ”
"How many actual combatants are there in that wing?"
"Twelve thousand, of course." Jabba woke up and realized that Qiu Yu's IQ was indeed problematic, and he couldn't do such a simple arithmetic problem.
Qiu Yu frowned, "Twelve thousand people are fighting with guns?" Who does the logistics of medical aid and material transportation? ”
Jabba's eyes flashed with a blank moment, but his mouth was normal, "With the squad as a unit, each soldier has part-time communications, medical aid, food supply, ammunition supply and other jobs. Whether it's a clan battle or a squad mission, it works in this mode. ”
This model of the army is indeed more efficient than you can imagine. Each squad can handle almost any situation independently. And when these squads are like individual parts that form a larger machine, the machine can be up and running at a rapid pace without the need for adjustment.
But the problem is that doctors and cooks may be able to work part-time, but without a dedicated transport team, you can't always let the people who supply ammunition and food carry tens or even hundreds of kilograms of things on their backs, right? If it is an intermediate civilization, it is estimated that it can indeed solve the problem of individual burdens, but it seems a bit nondescript to put the army mode of intermediate civilization here.
After passing the soldiers' barracks, there are separate houses with benches and flower stands around them. If you ignore the size of the houses, it is simply an upscale residential area.
For this, the soldier only said that it was an important person who lived, and then he sped up vigorously to let everyone follow.
This area was much larger than the place where more than 3,000 soldiers lived, and after a long time, just when everyone thought they were going to go on like this, suddenly they saw a vast, but crowded space.
The houses here are all simple pieces made of iron sheet and plastic, one after the other. Walking through narrow aisles that are not wide is like walking through a maze.
Fortunately, the lane along the way is not occupied, and no matter how you go, you can use it as a reference.
"This used to be a place where tanks and armored vehicles were parked, but now that all the tanks are out to deal with zombies, it has been changed to a temporary residence for survivors who have been rescued from the search, and you will live here for two out of every three days."
"And what about another day?" Someone asked.
"That's your mission." The back half of this space is occupied by a row of large military tents. There are still people standing guard in front of many tents. The soldier led the group to the door of the largest tent and looked inside, "It's your turn, go inside." The people inside will tell you what to do next. ”
The words of the soldiers who led the way whetted everyone's appetite. But when they entered the tent, a black-faced officer explained everything in just one sentence, "From the day after tomorrow, you will carry out a zombie cleanup mission every three days." ”
This is obviously different from saying yes, a group of people ask each other with their eyes, motivate. But until the officers told them to go to the box in the corner to collect their uniforms and weapons, no one stood up to question them.
This situation is a bit like the disgrace of some special forces to newcomers. You don't need to question, you just need to obey. To make this clear, most of the contents of the box are good and bad. If you have a high degree of obedience, you can get the best equipment if you go up first.
In order not to be an eye-catching bird, Autumn Feather was not the first to go up and get something. Instead, perceptual creep scanning is used after approaching a certain distance. As a result, he had to readjust his thinking.
There is no difference in the contents of the box. They were all standard military uniforms with epaulettes removed, and a pitch-black dagger more than 20 centimeters long.
Many people here have cut zombies, except for Qiu Yu, who know that the longer the weapon for cutting zombies, the better. If you say that you are not engaged in construction here, but if you fight zombies, you can barely accept it. After all, judging by what the government did the other day, no one thought that they would provide protection for free. But it's simply incomprehensible to let yourself fight zombies not with a gun, but with a small and short dagger. It's really no different from sending you to death.
When the box was turned upside down and all the weapons were daggers, the atmosphere in the entire tent instantly became gloomy.
The black-faced officer shouted, "At a time when the city is on the brink of destruction, everyone must do their part. Now that you are here, you must complete the tasks assigned to you, whether you want to or not, while you are safe. If you don't agree, you can leave the shelter at any time. ”
Someone hid in the crowd and protested, "But you can't let us fight zombies with this kind of thing, this is a slaughter in disguise." ”
"As I said, your mission starts the day after tomorrow." The black-faced officer patted the map behind him, "This vault has two large exits for helicopters, four medium-sized exits for vehicles, and twelve small exits for personnel. Three of the small exits are near us. Each of the three exits connects to the city's busiest places. It's not an evacuation zone, supermarkets, hospitals, banks, everything, no one has touched it before us. Although a lot of them have been removed after several rescues of materials by the troops, there are still a lot of good things left there. And the only ones who guarded these good things were the few zombies that wandered from other places after the troops cleared them. If you don't feel good about the weapons in your hands, if you want to eat something better, if you want your family to come here, or even live in the high-end residential area you have seen on the road, exchange it for what you have collected. ”
