Chapter Fifty-Three: Lanjia City
Tang Feng and his friends in the Xinsheng followed the Lan family's guards through the streets and alleys of Linjiang City, the once prosperous streets no longer existed, and the broken glass and rubble indicated that human civilization had moved towards another process.
Along the way, Tang Feng also found that in some relatively intact communities and courtyards, some surviving humans were forming self-defense teams, building defensive facilities, such as building outposts, consolidating walls, and even homemade traps, etc., as if small groups were replacing the government.
"Uncle Meng, are the Linjiang Public Security and the Linjiang Government paralyzed now?"
Meng Kuo immediately showed a disdainful expression after listening to Tang Feng's question, and looked in the direction of the city center through the color-changing glass of the armored car, "On the first day after the end of the world opened, the Linjiang government was completely paralyzed, and it is said that the Demon Capital Military Region once sent people to rescue the surviving officials, but in the end it ended in failure. ”
"Then it seems that the demon capital is still under the control of the government." Tang Feng said with relief.
"This is not necessarily, it is estimated that the demon capital government is already a puppet government, and the real controlling force behind it should be the demon capital military region, no, it should be the three super families of the demon capital military region."
When it comes to the Demon Capital Military Region, Meng Kuo's expression is very solemn, after all, before the end of the world, there were differences between the Lan family and the Demon Capital Military Region in terms of energy supply, and in the era of peace, the Lan Energy Technology Group under the Lan family still has the capital to compete with the forces of the Demon Capital Military Region, but now it is the end of the world, and the powerful military region forces must be above all forces.
"And what about the Public Security Bureau, which has thermal weapons? Is it also paralyzed? ”
"Hmph, in peacetime, ten police officers can't find two or three who can shoot, plus the lack of maintenance of the guns, the next day the public security bureau was broken by mutants. However, those people's policemen who serve the people, they are still using their bodies to resist the walking corpses for the masses at the moment before they die, which is very worthy of our respect. ”
Tang Feng didn't expect that the two major government agencies would fall so quickly, and this heavy topic also plunged the armored car into a dead silence.
After a bumpy journey of more than an hour, Tang Feng and the others finally came to an endless wall, the wall is about five meters high, it is made of reinforced concrete, and a high-voltage power grid is set up at the top of the wall, which can completely resist the group attack of mutants below the top ten levels.
The convoy slowly drove to the entrance and exit of the wall, the entrance was well protected by the towering iron gate and the double guardrail, and several guards with assault rifles were checking the convoy at the outpost behind the iron gate.
Once inside the wall, the road becomes relatively smooth, and a large number of traps can be seen in the open spaces on both sides of the road.
At this time, the sunlight had broken through the night and shone on the earth, and Tang Feng could vaguely see the sparkling waves ahead with the help of the sunlight.
"This ...... Is this a moat? When Tang Feng saw the river in front of him, which was obviously excavated by the population, his face couldn't help but show surprise.
Tang Feng's surprise brought Meng Kuo an incomparable sense of pride, "That's right, that's the moat that we artificially dug through the ability we evolved after the end of the world opened. ”
After the mutation crisis of the Lan family was resolved, Lan Feiduan hired the surviving people in Linjiang City to build the first wall of the Lan family's compound in two days through various payments such as food.
Then, after discussing with the Lan family leaders, Lan Feiduan agreed that the laborers involved in the construction of the wall would live between the first wall and the second wall, provided that these laborers were willing to cooperate with the construction of the more difficult second wall.
As for the moat, it was carved out by the Genshi after successful evolution through the power of the original power. Among them, Meng Kuo's contribution is the greatest, he controls the earth with the origin of the earth, changes the terrain, and finally excavates a moat with a depth of five meters with other sources after three days and three nights of hard work.
After Tang Feng and the others crossed the moat, they could see a large number of wooden houses built on the open space on both sides, some tents, and even some power facilities and living facilities.
As the sun rose, people in cotton coats had already walked out of the wooden houses one after another, and came to the open space to wait for the orders of the guards.
Tang Feng looked at the crowds of civilians and asked suspiciously, "How many people have gathered here, and what are they doing?" ”
"Outside the second wall, close to a thousand people have gathered at this time, and they are waiting for instructions from the escort to carry out the construction task, which can only be exchanged for food." Meng Kuo looked at the labor force that had become a large scale and said with a smile.
"Mission?"
"Well, there are two kilometers between the first wall and the second wall of Lanjia City, and the moat is five hundred meters away from the second wall, and these five hundred meters are the labor living area and the defense area after the first wall is breached, so it is necessary to build a large number of defense facilities within these five hundred meters, and also to build a large number of traps within the first 1,500 meters, and these labor tasks with low technical requirements will be distributed to the labor troops in the form of tasks.
In addition, the third wall, which is now being built, as well as the greenhouses and energy pools within the second wall, also require the deployment of technicians from the labor force. Laborers can get the next day's food and housing rights after completing the tasks of the day, and the Lan family does not support idlers. Meng Kuo replied domineeringly.
Tang Feng didn't expect that the Lan family would be able to arrange all this in an orderly manner in just over a week, and even designed a perfect defensive circle like three walls.
Meng Kuo seemed to see what Tang Feng was thinking, and immediately explained: "The defensive circle of the triple wall is borrowed from the three major capitals in Feiduan, and now the three major capitals are building a hundred-meter-high triple wall, and I heard that the height of the third wall of the imperial capital is even more than a hundred meters, this kind of defensive circle will surely be imitated by more cities and forces in the future." ”
"But the premise of building such a defensive ring is the availability of labor and resources, without which all ideas are empty talk."
"Don't underestimate the super forces before the apocalypse, and don't underestimate the country, their heritage is unimaginable, those super forces before the end are less than 10% likely to be destroyed after the end starts, and even after the end of the world will be even more influential." Meng Kuo seemed to want Tang Feng to understand this fact, but how could he have thought that the ability that Tang Feng possessed now could completely destroy a force, and the dominance of Yanyou and Demon Vine would be even more domineering in the days to come, not to mention the Chiyang of the Heavenly Divine Beast level, coupled with Tang Feng's amazing foundation that could condense the Stable Source Force Vortex at the top fifty-five ranks, perhaps in the future, Tang Feng alone would be equivalent to a super force, or even a country.
The convoy slowly drove along the road to the second wall, the second wall was fifteen meters high, and at this moment, on top of the wall, a thin and tall figure stood proudly, he was the master of this city: Lan Feiduan.
