Chapter XXVIII
"Commander, subordinates think,"
Renault pointed to the west of the base, the direction of Zephyr on the map, and said,
"From the perspective of distance, the distance between the base and Zephyr City is only about ten miles, which is extremely disadvantageous for us."
"If there is any change in the zombies in the city, I'm afraid we will be in danger again."
"Combined with the commander's previous plan to recruit troops to hunt down zombies wandering out of the city to obtain resource units, I think we should directly abandon hunting these scattered zombies that have been scattered."
"Gather a large number of troops recruited by the commander in one fell swoop and continue to advance in the direction of Zephyr City"
"Advance to a distance that will not be noticed by the zombies in the city and chase them out on a large scale, and gather the advantage of firepower to intercept and kill all the zombies that have wandered out of the city and have not been completely dispersed."
"When necessary, you can also take the initiative to attract the zombies in the city to chase after them, and then besiege them to get the maximum progress of resource collection."
"Of course, this can also detect the movement of zombies in Zephyr City at any time, and if the situation is not right, the commander can retreat in time."
Renault doesn't say it, a lot of it, but it's just a proposition, attack!
In Xia Zhengge's ears, this analysis is also in place, and it is also in line with his plan to hunt zombies and make a lot of money while the zombies are not out of the city.
Nodding his head, he looked at Layton and Rambo.
"What do you think?"
"Commander, I think what Renault said is not unreasonable, but in addition to zombies, we may also face a big problem."
"Food and water."
It was Layton who spoke, but he got to the core.
Xia Zhengge's face also changed.
Indeed, Leighton is perhaps the bigger problem than the zombie crisis.
There are more and more troops in his hands, and there are more and more problems that need to be faced, which are all things that he, as a commander, needs to consider, and it is also a necessary test for the growth of a team.
In the past, when there were only a few people in Zephyr City, even ordering a takeout could solve the problem.
Now being put on the table, having to face this serious problem.
If the previous mobile castle was still around, it might not be bad.
Not to mention how much food there is, but there is enough food to feed them for a few days.
It's just a pity that the Moving Castle has fallen to Zephyr.
Can't solve this problem, their next meal is a problem.
There are zombies outside that need to be defended at any time, and every warrior must ensure enough physical strength to have the energy to face the zombie threat.
Not to mention that Xia Zhengge's daughter Xiaoxi is also here.
No one can starve a child.
Although there must be a large amount of grain in the fallen Zephyr City, at this time, who has the ability to go to the Zephyr City to transport it.
"And, Commander, we must figure out a way out."
Rambo, who had not spoken, took over the words and said directly, "Regardless of whether the zombies will go out of the city or not, for us, we must prepare for the worst right now." ”
"I believe the commander has no intention of staying here for long."
"So, where do we go next and from which route."
"Will there be the same zombie outbreak on the way forward, we can't blindly move forward regardless of this."
"It has to be scouted."
Putting aside the worries of the food problem for the time being, listening to the analysis of the three only generals under his command at present, Xia Zhengge was extremely satisfied.
Now that several people have made it clear, Xia Zhengge is really blind to the position of commander if he doesn't know what to do.
"Okay, Brain, how many fighters have been recruited now."
"Your Excellency, 250 mobilized soldiers and 50 American GIs are currently recruited, for a total of 300 new recruits"
"Remaining existing resource reserves: 127,640 units"
"Well, okay, stop recruiting as soon as you recruit another 60 people."
Xia Zhengge made a decision, he has enough energy now, and he was originally preparing for a large-scale riot, but he had to be forced to stop.
If he wants to continue recruiting soldiers, he must first finalize the food problem.
Otherwise, everyone will starve to death.
"Come, you see, that's what I intended."
After giving the order to Zhi Brain, Xia Zhengge looked at Layton and the others and said,
"From now on, the troops will be reorganized."
"The previous squad of twelve people was all conscripts, but now it has been changed, ten conscripts plus two American GIs are mixed into a squad"
"No, one class, from now on, the basic establishment will be unified into a class, and there will be a squad leader."
"Then every three squads assemble into a platoon and have a platoon leader."
"Three platoons are a company, with a company commander, and the company commander can add 12 people to the guard squad, with a total of 120 people in each company."
"Leighton served as the commander of the first company, Renault second company, and Rambo third company."
"Expand the force in the future, and each squad leader, platoon leader, and company commander will be served by American GIs in their respective teams."
"What do you think?"
After finishing his question about the establishment of the army in one breath, Xia Zhengge asked rhetorically.
"Commander Wise!"
Several people immediately shouted respectfully.
As far as this troop is concerned, they are absolutely obedient.
With the increase in troops, the previous squad system is indeed no longer suitable for the development of this team.
Xia Zhengge's squad and platoon system was just in time.
In addition, if each team is damaged, it can also recruit fighters and fill them in directly, so there will be no confusion in the clear system.
It is more efficient to execute commands.
"Okay, if you all have any opinions, then you all follow the order."
Looking at the three of Layton, there is no objection, after all, they are all prepared after practical tests, Xia Zhengge immediately ordered,
It was true that he brainstormed, but in the end, it was decided that he, the commander, had to make the decision to finalize the execution.
"Renault, you haven't fully recovered from your injuries, and you don't need to travel long distances, so lead the soldiers of the second company to clean up the zombies around the base"
"At the same time, we should also pay attention to find those vehicles that have been attacked by zombies, etc., and bring them all back if they are not completely damaged."
"Pay attention to the availability of food, as long as we can collect all we can use."
The zombie outbreak was sudden, and although everyone fled from Zephyr City in a vehicle, they obviously did not completely get rid of the zombies.
Xia Zhengge witnessed with his own eyes that there were a lot of scattered vehicles and other tools outside the city, and the fate of their master was obviously not easy.
And these scattered vehicles are his target.
"Yes, Commander!"
Renaud agreed, while Xia Zhengge looked at Layton, pointed to the terrain on the map and said,
"Leighton, the zombie outbreak is sudden, and those who can escape will definitely not be able to carry too much food, and there shouldn't be much food in the scattered vehicles."
"So you have to take a company and go deep into the mountains behind to hunt the beasts, and the food problem will be left to you."
"Also, divide a part of the team and go to this direction to reconnoiter the route."
Pointing to the direction in which Westwind City continued to the east, Xia Zhengge said affirmatively, "When Westwind City had not yet fallen, I heard that there were other city settlements in that direction, and we had to move closer to that direction for supplies. ”
"I just hope they don't have the same fate as us in Westwind."
Pray silently, just this is possible...... Xia Zhengge, who had no other way to go, could only give it a try.
"Yes, Commander, I promise to complete the mission."
The food problem and the reconnaissance task are all on Leighton's shoulders, which can be described as extremely important.
But the fighters recruited by the Red Police were born to solve problems for their commanders.
"Okay, then Rambo, besiege the zombies of Zephyr City, and the task of hunting will be handed over to you!"
"Let's do it, get it organized, and let's go."
