****************************

Seeing that the last zombie in front of the mining area was killed by the team members, Chen Yuan knew that the battle was over, and it was only half past eleven in the morning, half an hour earlier than they expected. So Chen Yuan immediately ordered: "The second squadron will organize defense and set up sentry posts on the spot. The third squadron, clean up the battlefield to see if there are any zombies that are not dead, and if there are any, destroy them immediately, and at the same time recover the spirit flesh. The first squadron immediately dispersed to search the entire mining area to see if there were any missing zombies, and if any, dispose of them. ”

"Yes!" Zhang Zeshan, Zhang Zhen and Jiang Wenli took orders one after another.

"Wei Chen, you send a signal and let the snipers come back. When they come back, let them organize their defenses on the spot. ”

"Good!" Wei Chen nodded and fired a signal flare into the sky.

Then, Chen Yuan looked at Xu Kai again, and he said, "Brother Xu, the matter here is over, and the affairs of your intelligence department must be grasped quickly." You immediately rush back to the settlement to make arrangements. By the way, escort the wounded here back, and the two wounded who were infected by the enhanced zombie virus will be handed over to Dr. Hu. ”

Xu Kai immediately nodded and said, "Okay!" Do you have any other arrangements inside the Steel Castle? ”

Chen Yuan thought about it and said, "No, let Dr. Hu pay attention to safety measures." It is not known whether the two wounded who were infected by the enhanced virus will be able to successfully transform into half-corpses, and it is possible that they will still be semi-middle-corpses. So be sure to tie them up tightly when you test them. so as not to be attacked suddenly. It is best to take someone to protect Dr. Hu's safety throughout the process. ”

Xu Kai nodded and said, "Understood, I will explain." ”

Finally, Chen Yuan looked at the messenger who had been following him and ordered, "Notify Resource Point 01 so that they can go." ”

Ten minutes later, the snipers who received Wei Chen's return signal returned to the copper mine area one after another.

The search mission of the first squadron was also quickly and successfully completed, and it was confirmed that there were no other zombies in the entire mining area. But there were no survivors. Zhang Zeshan said: "The environment here is too simple, and it is difficult for survivors to hide. It is estimated that they have either fled from here, or they have all been found and killed by the corpses. ”

Chen Yuan nodded and didn't say anything. After the appearance of corpse control, it is indeed becoming more and more difficult for human survivors in the area of the zombie legion to survive.

Then Jiang Wenli also reported to Chen Yuan the harvest of cleaning the battlefield. She said, "Castle Chief, the spirit flesh has been recovered. There are a total of 6 pieces of Hundred Corpse Elder Spirit Meat, 9 pieces of Enhanced Zombie Spirit Meat, and 912 pieces of ordinary Zombie Spirit Meat. In addition, there are about 1,000 sets of zombie cold weapons prepared, including long swords, spears, shields, helmets, and armor. But they're all crude weapons, how do you deal with this? ”

Chen Yuan thought for a while and said, "The spirit meat was handed over to Zhang Fatzi and stored in a few freezers we brought. Just pile up the weapons and equipment of those zombies, it's useless to take such a crude weapon. Dry it first, so that everyone is okay and don't get close, there is still a zombie virus left on it, in case it is accidentally cut, it will be troublesome. After a few days of natural death, the virus on the equipment will be brought back to the Steel Castle to melt and re-make steel. Speaking of this, Chen Yuan said to Wang Tieshan by the way: "Brother Wang, the smelter in the second phase of the project has also started construction in Hatu Village, and now we have coal mines and copper mines. You have to prepare for it, and when the smelter is built, start smelting copper as soon as possible. The bullet production line of the arsenal will also be in place soon, and copper will be indispensable for the production of bullets by then. ”

Smelting is a heavily polluting industry, so Chen Yuan naturally does not place the smelter in the settlement. Choose another place, which is naturally the most suitable for Hatu Village. Hatu Village already has a city wall, and in the second phase of the project, it will be upgraded as an important resource hoarding site for settlements. It may not be as sturdy or tall as the Steel Castle, but at least zombies can't easily run in. In addition to the start of the garrison, the smelter will only be open during the day, and the personnel will return to live in the Iron Citadel at night. In the event of a zombie attack, personnel can retreat to the Steel Castle in as little as 2 minutes. Security is sufficient.

Although Wang Tieshan was born in iron, he also had some understanding of metal smelting, so Chen Yuan asked him to take care of both the blacksmith shop and the smelter.

Wang Tieshan immediately replied: "Understood, Castle Chief! Several of the survivors of the settlement used to work in metallurgy. In addition to supervising the construction of the smelter, I have also asked them to hurry up and train a group of workers, so that when the smelter is built, the workers can take up their posts and continue their studies and start metallurgy. ”

Chen Yuan nodded, expressing satisfaction. Then he said to Wei Chen: "Wei Chen, we originally planned to go to Zhangjiaba tomorrow, and according to the local survivors, there is a small iron mine there. Although we can still collect a lot of steel from nearby villages and towns for the time being, it is enough to use. But having an iron ore is always good for us in the future, and more importantly, there are usually two elements in it, lead and sulfur. I heard Mr. Cai, who teaches chemistry, say that sulfuric acid is one of the important raw materials for making smokeless gunpowder nitrocellulose. The bullet core of the bullet is filled with lead, and the bullet without lead will pass directly through after hitting the person, and the bullet hole is small. If the bullet is covered with lead, it will lose its balance and roll over because of the different specific gravity of the body, and the bullet hole will be large. Therefore, we are also determined to win the iron mine, so you will go to reconnoiter in the afternoon and explore the situation over there first. ”

Wei Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get ready to go." ”

Chen Yuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"Isn't that what I should have done?" Wei Chen said with a smile: "But Captain Bao, if you really don't care, I don't mind if you give me a salary increase of twenty or thirty contribution points every day." Hey! ”

"Yes!" Chen Yuanjiao said with a smile: "But this salary is to earn more and get more, and it is not a problem to give you twenty or thirty contribution points a day, but you have to get me an extra piece of corpse spirit meat every day." For example, today, you will be rewarded with 20 contribution points. ”

"Uh......" When Wei Chen heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes: "Don't, I'll take my current salary." That corpse is not easy to deal with, look at my body armor. Wei Chen pulled the body armor full of sword marks on his body and said: "Just like today, when the main force of the zombies has been contained, I went to deal with the corpse and was cut like this, if I go to fight with a group of zombies controlled by the corpse system every day, will I still have my life to come back!" ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

After a brief meeting of the people, the crowd dispersed again. Wei Chen went to prepare the equipment for the reconnaissance mission. Chen Yuan took a few people to inspect the various mining machinery and equipment in the copper mining area, and many of the machinery and equipment were dismantled by the zombie group to make weapons, which gave Chen Yuan a headache. Jiang Wenli's third squadron carried the zombie corpses on the ground to bury them, these corpses were so stinking that there was no way to live without disposing of them. The men of the first squadron were collecting stones to build a fortress, and there were a lot of stones in the vicinity. So before the logistics personnel arrived, the fighters who rolled up their sleeves and worked had already brought back a large pile of stones. In fact, even if you don't collect these stones, there are a lot of excavated copper ores in the yards in the copper mining area that can be used. It's just a bit of a waste.
