Chapter 240: Autumn

A few months after the outbreak of the apocalypse, CD City was virtually devoid of survivors.

Among the ruins, in addition to the zombies hidden in the shadows, some only exude a palpitating dead silence like ghosts.

However, none of this is entirely absolute.

The sound of the screw shattered all this, and a helicopter slowly flew into the city from the nearest.

Immediately after, the stones on the pavement began to tremble slightly.

"Click, click, click."

The sound of crawlers grinding stones on the ground sounded, and a tank appeared at the end of the street.

It is a heavy tank with army green livery, thick armor, and a 120mm main gun.

The heavy tanks were followed by a number of armored vehicles, each with a strange semicircular part on top of which the muzzle of the gun could be clearly seen.

Behind the armored car, there are modified off-road vehicles, the windows and tires are welded with protective iron nets, the crash bars are welded with sharp corners, the sunroof is open, and a soldier with a machine gun is waiting for him.

More than two dozen off-road vehicles passed, followed by dozens of heavy-duty trucks that had also been repurposed.

The noise of the huge convoy wiped out the silence.

"Commander, the troops are approaching the target area."

Eva's sweet voice came into his ears, and Wang Peng opened his eyes slightly and looked down at the helicopter.

In sight, a large steel company came into view.

"Okay, let the vanguard team clean up the zombies around and ensure safety, and then let the transport team carry out the carrying work."

Wang Peng said lightly.

"How's it going over there with Rhino Tank?"

"Report to the commander, the Rhino tank is in good working condition and fuel consumption is also being planned."

When Wang Peng heard this, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Good."

This Rhino tank was recently built, and this is the first time it has participated in combat.

Although Wang Peng is fully sure of the quality of the tanks produced by the Red Alert system, this is the first tank he owns after all!

The Rhino Tank, the most basic tank in the Red Alert game, is also the main battle tank of the Soviet Army.

Compared to the Allied Grizzlies, the Rhino is a full lap larger in size, and the sacrifice of mobility results in armor that is nearly twice as heavy as the Grizzly Tank.

In the Red Alert system, the Grizzly Bear Tank costs 8,000 points, and the Rhino Tank costs 10,000 points, and the difference between the two is only 2,000.

So after weighing it twice, Wang Peng chose the Rhino tank with slightly less mobility, but more powerful armor and artillery fire.

In the Red Alert game, the Rhino Tank is the second most cost-effective unit of all vehicles.

But under the magic change of the red alert system, it is still unknown whether it is cost-effective in the game.

……

After a brief burst of gunfire, Eva soon received feedback from the vanguard.

"The building materials factory has been searched and confirmed to be internally safe."

When Wang Peng heard this, he immediately took out a walkie-talkie from the satchel on his waist and said: "Transportation group, drive the vehicle into the building materials factory to carry steel, the distribution of the main steel has been made into a map and sent to each driver, please carry it according to the corresponding area!" ”

The heavy trucks at the rear began to move, and the heavy trucks slowly drove into the building materials factory, driving towards different areas.

"If all the building materials are swept away, the construction progress of the base car should reach more than 90%."

This building materials factory, a few days ago Wang Peng has taken a helicopter to repeatedly inspect and confirm, there is a large amount of steel stored here, preliminary statistics may also have more than 1,000 tons of steel.

With the current number of heavy trucks, I am afraid it will take two or three trips to deliver them all to Base 2.

Such a large project naturally needs heavy military support.

Wang Peng's willingness to spend a lot of money to build a rhinoceros tank is precisely in mind.

Compared with other soldiers in the Red Alert system, the tank is much less cost-effective, but it is undoubtedly the most powerful.

THE 120MM MAIN GUN IS LETHAL ENOUGH TO KILL THE GIANT ZOMBIE IN ONE SHOT, AND ITS ARMOR IS MUCH THICKER THAN THAT OF A MULTI-PURPOSE INFANTRY VEHICLE, MAKING IT USELESS FOR ANY ZOMBIE.

Tanks are invincible to zombies.

……

Forklifts quickly drove down from a heavy truck, and kept working back and forth to carry the steel into the heavy truck.

There are still some talents in Wang Peng's base, including a forklift driver.

The amount of work that can be done by a forklift is simply incomparable to ordinary manual labor.

Wang Peng, who knew that he had this kind of talent, simply asked him to guide and train a group of forklift drivers, and also built more than a dozen forklifts for this purpose.

These forklifts have now become the equipment with the best handling effect in Wang Peng's hands in addition to multi-functional maintenance vehicles.

After more than an hour, all the trucks were already loaded with steel.

With a wave of Wang Peng's hand, the whole team retreated, and everyone performed their duties in an orderly manner, with extremely fast efficiency.

It has been nearly two months since the start of manufacturing the base car.

In the past two months, this kind of thing has become familiar to everyone, and even the unarmed survivors have no sense of fear or fear.

There are helicopters in the sky, as long as there are zombies approaching, they will be warned, and no warning means that there are no zombies, which is very safe.

Wang Peng, who was on the helicopter, watched the team below retreat one after another, although he was still vigilant, but his heart was also relaxed.

Suddenly, a breeze blew, and Wang Peng couldn't help but shiver.

Before you know it, the height of summer has passed, and autumn is coming.

Originally, for a southern city like CD City, the climate at this time should still be extremely hot.

However, the outbreak of the end times has completely changed the world, and at the same time, it seems to have quietly changed the climate.

Autumn has just arrived, and the temperature drops so fast that you can feel a noticeable chill even during the day, and at night, it is even more cold and shivering, and you have to cover it with a thick blanket.

The temperature drop is just a small thing.

Two days ago, some old farmers in the base found Wang Peng and reported a matter.

The sudden drop in temperature, coupled with the continuous rain in the past few days, caused the crops in the farmland around the base to freeze to death in patches, and those who were originally waiting for a month or two to mature are now all gone!

This bad news made Wang Peng immediately realize that this was a very serious problem.

With the support of the grain depot, the food reserves of the base are sufficient, and there is no need to worry about food in the short term.

But no matter how much grain there is in the granary, it will be eaten up one day.

What worries him even more is how long will this abnormal climate last? Will it continue to deteriorate.

You know, it's only autumn, and when winter comes, how will the temperature drop?
