Chapter 440 Farmland
Qiguangguo's words, Qiu Yu was shocked.
The situation in the city is already quite bad, but the army is all fighting in the suburbs, doesn't this mean that the situation in the suburbs has become so serious that the zombies in the city don't even have time to deal with it?
"Are there more zombies in the suburbs or in the city?"
Qiguangguo thought for a moment, "This is really not good. According to the intelligence compiled by various parties, the most dense places for zombies are in the central area of the city and the edge of the city. Being beaten by the army like this, there should have been a lot of zombie groups on the edge of the city to the suburbs. ”
"Do you want to guide the zombies out of the city and then clean them up with heavy weapons?"
"I remember that the weapons in our arsenal alone were enough to plow an entire city several times. But somehow, the army has been calling for a shortage of heavy weapons. So all that was done now was to build a line of defense to stop the zombies from spreading to the outskirts farther afield. And your job is to deal with the zombies that have slipped through, oh, and maybe the rats. ”
"Can you transport us to the suburbs?"
Of course, the shelter is built on a section of the subway that has been blocked by the government, and a few hundred meters down the driveway in front of you can take the subway that connects to the suburbs. In several areas controlled by the military, there are also subways that provide direct access to other shelters...... Guess why the government is paying so much attention to the suburbs? ”
Qiu Yu replied without thinking about it, "For food." ”
Qiguang Guo's words that had been brewed were stagnant, "Ahem, yes." No matter how much food you have saved, there will always be a time when you finish eating, and if you really wait until you are almost done to find a way, then you don't need to do it with zombies, and the people here will have to pinch it themselves. Several scientists have also proposed that zombies can absorb energy from the air, and we will definitely lose if they starve to death first. As a result, several shelters in the north were given the task of guarding the farmland on the outskirts of the northern part of the city. However, although it is still under the unified management of the government, each shelter has to take care of its own needs. I don't know what about the rest of the place, anyway, the administrators here have been holding off under the pretext that they want to leave the army to deal with the sudden zombie transformation in the shelter. But a few days ago, the airborne transmission of the zombie virus suddenly stopped, and people will no longer become zombies because of a little injury. The managers here had neither worries nor excuses, so they had to drive their troops to the outskirts. ”
Qiu Yu's heart rippled slightly. The things you redeem have a much greater impact on the world than you imagined.
Seeing that Qiu Yu was deep in thought, Qiguang Guo paused before continuing, "There are almost no people in the suburbs, especially in the farmland area. The army's first zombie removal was quite easy. But the zombies in the city are constantly spreading around, and if they are left alone, they will fill up all the farmland in a few days, and they will not be able to fight in the farmland. So the army, relying on armored vehicles, built a defensive line on the edge of the city - a fairly long line of defense. There are only more than 10,000 troops in our Vault, and even if we add a few other Vaults, we have all put together a legion. If this person wants to defend the entire north of the city, it is not impossible, at least it is quite difficult. A large number of zombies cross the line every day. The army wants to go back and clean up, and there is a shortage of manpower. But if you don't care, in a few days, the number of zombies that have slipped through the net will increase to a terrifying number, and it will be quite difficult to clean it up. As a result, the top government officials proposed to recruit survivors to fight the war. As long as you have a plan in place and clean up every day, even survivors with little to no combat power can complete the task. ”
Qiu Yu sighed, "This situation is really bad. ”
"Who's to say it's not, it's just exchanging ammunition for food. And originally, only a small number of zombies were spreading to the suburbs, but as soon as the army's artillery fire led them, most of the zombies were running there. If you can't control the number of zombies in the vicinity before you run out of shells, you'll have to abandon most of your farmland for shrinkage defense. But if that's the case, even if you can still feed the people in the shelter, don't think about growing and recovering the city. ”
There was a question that Qiu Yu was quite concerned about, even if he felt that Qiguangguo couldn't answer it, he couldn't help but ask, "Why do we have to fight zombies to the death?" Can't I move to another city? ”
Qiguangguo shook his head blankly, "I don't know. ”
Qiu Yu asked a different question, "Can't we just give up the area next to the city and retreat a few dozen kilometers back?" With this distance as a buffer, the small number of zombies that wandered in could be easily dealt with, and the sound of battle would not lead the city out. ”
Qiguangguo frowned and said, "Our farthest farmland is only a few dozen kilometers away from the city, if we don't retreat far enough, it will have no effect, but if we retreat far, won't we have no land at all?" ”
"Cultivate your own wasteland. There are so many idle people here, are you afraid that you won't be able to support yourself when you do it together? ”
"No, you can't leave the edge of the field."
Qiu Yu asked, "Why?" ”
Qiguangguo asked suspiciously, "Yes, why?" ”
Well, the game's intelligence control directly pinched this answer.
"Can you get me on the subway as soon as possible?" Since you can't ask, you can confirm it yourself.
Qiguang Guo returned to normal and looked at Qiu Yu in surprise, "You are going to fight zombies in the field?" ”
Qiu Yu smiled, "I'm just curious, I want to go to the field to have a look, and I have no intention of fighting zombies." If you can do me a little favor, I'll leave everything that breaks to me in the future. ”
Qiguangguo hesitated, "Just take a look?" How long to watch? ”
"If I go now, I'll be back in the evening, after all, I don't want to lose my life because of curiosity."
Qiguangguo shook his head, "The tram only runs once a day, and it will have to wait until tomorrow morning at the earliest, and if you come back, it will be the morning after tomorrow." ”
"Tomorrow morning, then. Now, I'll fix everything I can here. ”
Seeing that Qiu Yu started to repair again, Qiguangguo was helpless, "Okay, I'll go find someone to arrange it for you now." ”
After Qiguang Guo left, Qiu Yu's repair speed sped up a few points. There is perceptual creep, and all failures are in front of you. If it can be repaired, it will be repaired as quickly as possible. If you can't fix it, just take out a pen and paper and write down the list of materials you need.
More than half an hour later, when Qiguang Guo returned, Qiu Yu had just finished all the work.
"The twenty-three on the right are all minor problems that have been fixed. The pile on the left is missing tools and parts that need to be replaced, and it can't be repaired for the time being. Here is the list, after I get ready according to the above writing, I can continue to work when I come back the day after tomorrow. I don't know much about the guns in the back, so I didn't move for the time being. ”
Of course, Qiu Yu doesn't really know how to repair firearms, but he just needs to keep some spiritual territory for Qiguang Kingdom, so that he can save some time. But even so, he still looked at Qiguangguo stunned.
"Oh, okay, great work......" Even Qiguangguo, who has a lot of experience as a manager, doesn't know if he should be surprised in this situation.
"That suit of clothes you have in your hand is for me, right?" Qiu Yu was quite short on time, and he couldn't let him waste time on something unexpected or meaningless.
Qiguangguo quickly restrained his emotions and handed a set of orange clothes to Qiu Yu, "This is a technician's work clothes, and I got you the identity of an agricultural machinery repairman." The place of work is not far from the subway exit, as long as you are not beaten by zombies to the subway entrance, you will not be in danger. As for the repair of agricultural machinery, there are professional people doing it anyway, you just have to pretend. The train departs at 7 o'clock every day, and this clothing is equivalent to a ticket, so remember to wear it. ”
"Thank you. There's nothing going on here for now, I want to go around, any suggestions? ”
Qiguangguo turned his head and looked around, there was really nothing for Qiu Yu to do here, "There are two places you can go to see, one is the material management office, which is mainly for non-combatants, and you can exchange your contributions for a lot of necessities of life." When you officially go through the formalities of working with me, in addition to the fixed allocation for daily work, you can get contribution points for every thing you repair. But don't worry that what you did today will be embezzled by me, and when you get through the formalities, I'll give you all the contribution points. ”
"No need, I said that I was helping today, I can't ask for it."
Qiguangguo tempted Qiu Yu with the painted cake, and Qiu Yu returned the cake to him directly. In the case of no loss at all, it made Qiguangguo feel that he was very sensible and a person who could be cultivated as a confidant, and the smile on his face became more and more kind, "Then let's talk about this then." The other one is the tent opposite. It was the Quartermaster Service for combatants. If you complete a task or collect something from the outside, you can exchange it for military merit points there, and everything related to the battle can be exchanged for military merit points. ”
For ordinary items, Qiu Yu has no interest in it at all, but it is necessary to look at the things of the Quartermaster Department. Coming out of the repair shop, Qiu Yu walked directly into the quartermaster tent opposite.
Because of the limitation of the perceptual spread range, I just scanned a lot of people here. When I looked at it with my eyes now, I realized that what I had just perceived was only this room, or a small part of this group of tents.
It is made up of more than a dozen tents stitched together. Except for the front two roofs, which are used for reception, the space behind is full of all kinds of military materials. When Aki Yu expands his perception to a blurry image where he can only see objects, he even finds a tank and a small helicopter in it. Only then did he immediately understand the concept of "everything related to the battle" that Qiguangguo said.
A quartermaster lay bored on the table, and no one bothered him. Most of the people here are new to the N75, so naturally it is impossible to exchange something, just look at the exchange list posted on the tent and whisper.
A small number of people who seem to have experienced fighting with zombies probably don't have much military merit in their hands, standing in front of the exchange list and watching silently, looking extremely entangled.
Qiu Yu quickly skimmed through it. The richness of the exchange items above is enough to open a military fair. Not to mention all kinds of firearms, armor, and tanks and planes that I saw before, even high-explosive bullets, armor-piercing bullets, steel core bullets, lead core bullets and other things that ordinary people can't figure out the difference and usage are also clearly listed. It's like deliberately enriching this dense exchange slip.
It's a pity that although these exchanges are dazzling, they are all ordinary technology-level. If you really want to use these things to fight zombies, you don't necessarily have a machete. From the beginning to the end of the entire exchange list, there was only one exchange about identity that interested Qiu Yu.
