Chapter 1239: Warwick City
"yes!" Hearing Chen Yuan's question, the person in charge of reception in Huawei City couldn't help but sigh: "The first two years were particularly frequent, not to mention the scattered zombies, the large-scale zombies basically came to attack every one or two months. Sometimes they even come two or three times a month. However, the scale is generally not large. ”
Then he paused, as if in thought, and then quickly continued: "Then the number of attacks became less, once every two or three months, three or four months, but the scale became larger! Sometimes the size of the zombies even reaches thirty or forty thousand! And every attack is very intense! ”
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes again, and then began to endorse their city lord: "If it weren't for our city lord's good leadership, I'm afraid our settlement would be no longer there!" ”
In this regard, Chen Yuan, Regers and others nodded noncommittally.
The situation in the UK is special.
The population density is large, and it is mainly concentrated in cities and towns, so whether it is a city or a township, the population is relatively large. In addition, there are many towns.
Therefore, the local zombie army is very dense.
It's normal for a place like the Warwick Settlement to be attacked on a regular basis.
It's no wonder that Arthur and Willis and others have such a high opinion of Wood Town.
However, there is a benefit to this situation on the British side.
That is, outside the city, the scale of the zombie army in the general township is not very large.
Anyway, for the troops of the United States and China, it is just right, it is relatively easy to be eliminated, and the number of zombies is not too small.
Otherwise, if there are only a few hundred zombies, the benefits of the battle are too low, and the troops are too lazy to move!
And while Chen Yuan and the others were talking to the reception staff sent by Arthur, the gate of Warwick City had already opened in front of them.
With a noisy sound, Chen Yuan, Lei Jie Si and the others immediately saw the crowd of people inside the city gate.
Regarding the news of the arrival of the Americans and the Chinese, the Warwick settlement did not deliberately publicize it, nor did it deliberately conceal it.
After all, so many planes landed at Warwick Airport, so many American and Chinese troops got off the planes, and such a big scene could not be concealed.
Therefore, this matter has already spread in the Warwick settlement when the United States and the Chinese allied forces went to attack Woodtown.
In particular, the arrival of the Americans seems to have given the survivors here hope for the end of the apocalypse.
So after learning that representatives of the United States and China were about to visit the settlement.
Many people spontaneously ran to the city gate to welcome them.
It was a crowd of people, like a grand parade and celebration. Many also made rudimentary American and Chinese flags, waving them constantly.
"Oh......"
Seeing the convoy of Chen Yuan and others driving into the city gate, the welcoming crowd instantly erupted in huge cheers. It was as if they were welcoming the victorious returning heroes.
In fact, the combined forces of the United States and China had indeed just won a victory that the local British considered glorious.
In a very short period of time, they conquered the previous three local settlements, and they were unable to defeat Wood Town with several times the number of troops.
This strengthened the confidence of the local survivors in the strength of the Americans. (At this time, ordinary survivors did not know that Huaxia's troops also played a huge role in this battle.) )
So their cheers can't be enthusiastic!
However, Chen Yuan, Regers and others also quickly noticed that many of these welcoming crowds were described as very thin, pale, dry hair, and very sloppy clothes, but they had long lost the demeanor of the British gentlemen of the past.
Although they all tried their best to wave to the vehicles of Chen Yuan and Regers and others, they all looked weak.
It's not that they're not excited and enthusiastic enough, it's that they really don't have the strength!
It's like someone who has been hungry for days.
Looking at the buildings and streets in the town, it is generally possible to imagine that this used to be a small town with a beautiful environment, typical of British retro style.
Today, however, the number of survivors has increased dramatically, making the settlements extremely crowded, so the environment is no longer what it used to be.
Wherever Chen Yuan's convoy passed, you could see a lot of self-built tin houses. Some of them have even been covered on the road, making the already not very spacious street even more crowded!
Even so, the number of homes seems to be far from sufficient.
On the way to Warwick Castle with Chen Yuan and others' convoy, many people were still running out of the houses on both sides of the street to watch.
Sometimes you will see six or seven people coming out of the door of a small iron house, and they will crowd at the door of the iron house, watching Chen Yuan and their convoy pass in front of them.
Obviously, these people live in such huts with an area of less than seven or eight square meters.
Chen Yuan couldn't help but ask the person in charge of reception, "Mr. Ian, is your housing here very tight?" ”
Ian, who was in charge of receiving Chen Yuan in the Warwick Settlement, humbly replied, "Mr. Castle Chief, you can just call me Ian." ”
Then he continued: "We really don't have enough housing here. After all, Warwicktown used to have a population of less than 6,000. Although there are some hotels that can accommodate foreign tourists. But at its peak, the total number of people in the town was only 10,000. Today, more than 80,000 people live here. ”
Regers also asked, "Why don't you build some high-rise residential buildings?" ”
"On the one hand, there are not enough building materials." Ian replied respectfully, "Most of the building materials we have collected have been used to build the walls and broken houses in the town. On the other hand, no one dares to live in high-rise residential buildings. ”
He explains: "We were often attacked by hordes of zombies, and the walls weren't high enough. If you build a high-rise building in the town, you can easily become a target for zombie trebuchets. And these high-rise buildings may also be used by zombies to attack Warwick Castle in the rear. ”
He said, "You know, zombie archers, condescending to shoot farther. Therefore, high-rise buildings with a height of more than 5 floors are generally not allowed in the town. ”
Hearing this, Regis couldn't help but frown.
And Wang Ruhan also said in a deep voice in Chinese: "What kind of reason is this! Is it because they are afraid that the castle will be threatened, so they leave the housing problem of the inhabitants of the settlement unsolved? ”
At this moment, their motorcade happened to pass in front of a five-story building......
