Chapter 418: Five Days Have Passed
After the news of the victory on the front line came back, the survivors in the base were in a state of excitement. [Full text reading. 】
This time there is a big victory, although there are not many places to recapture, but the significance of this is too great.
Because this proves that their Xin'an City base already has the ability to counterattack zombies.
This has greatly boosted the self-confidence of these survivors, so that they no longer live so precariously and less worried that one day a flood of corpses will come and break through the city.
It can be said that this makes those survivors at the bottom also see hope for the future.
The soldiers who returned in triumph were surrounded by the excited crowd and returned to the barracks, and after some of them were left on duty, most of them went back to their barracks to rest.
Of course, the barracks can rest here, but the entire Xin'an City base is like a war machine running at full strength.
Now that the zombies near the outpost have been cleared and the wall has been built, it can be said that the most important first step has been completed on the army's side, and now all that remains is to expand with all its might.
The temporarily recruited workers have already received their salaries and left, but here in the logistics department, there is still an engineering team of 5,000 people, and these people are more professional.
The reason why they weren't sent out yesterday was because most of the people in these engineering teams were ordinary people, and they didn't have much ability to resist when they encountered zombies.
But now with the wall, it's different, as long as you send a little regiment of soldiers, you can easily protect them.
And in addition to arranging for the engineering team to go over, the houses in the outpost were also sold by Sun Xue in the form of auctions, and those merchant groups who saw business opportunities rushed to buy them one after another.
Judging from the current development momentum of Xin'an City, the population will definitely increase in the future, and the price of land will rise accordingly.
These houses are definitely a good choice, whether they are converted into shops or rented out, or they are held in their hands and wait for the price to rise.
And these businessmen, after buying these houses, will naturally send people to maintain and renovate. In this way, Sun Xue has even saved the cost of renovating the base, and can even make a lot of money.
Of course, in order not to let these businessmen monopolize, Sun Xue adopted a policy of restricting purchases and opening up loans, which allowed those ordinary evolutionaries to buy a house of their own.
However, there is a limit to loans, so they can't afford to buy good houses, but they still have no problem buying ordinary houses, or houses that have been damaged by the war.
As soon as Sun Xue's policy was implemented, nearly half of the survivors in the base of Xin'an City poured into the outpost to build their respective industries.
Due to the sudden increase in population, the outpost will attract a large number of zombies, and Pender's side has to send three regiments of soldiers to be stationed in the outpost again in case of accidents.
However, perhaps because of yesterday's carpet cleaning, the vitality of the zombies was greatly damaged, so it didn't happen, and that kind of large-scale corpse tide hit.
At noon, the soldiers, who had rested for the morning, set out again to clear the surroundings.
In such a situation, there is no need to worry about security anymore. At the same time, Sun Xue also let go of his hands and feet to do it, and increased his investment in the outpost.
Seeing the army set off, those mercenary groups who were also recuperating their energy were, of course, also set off again, following behind to collect supplies.
In this way, a steady stream of materials was transported back to the base in Xin'an City, providing a lot of resources for the construction of the outpost.
And the army's sweep of zombies, the most harvested is those evolution R, as long as the soldiers in the army transform these evolution R into cultivation, then their combat effectiveness will be able to improve a lot again.
It can be said that at this moment, the base of Xin'an City is developing and growing at a terrifying speed, as for how long this growth rate can last, Ye Feng is not clear, but one thing is certain, that is, this kind of time will not last too long.
Five days have passed in a blink of an eye, and in these five days, the entire Xin'an City base has undergone earth-shaking changes.
In just five days, stimulated by Sun Xue's various policies, the outpost has become quite large-scale.
In the case of working day and night, a wall of 15 meters high and 3 meters wide has been erected.
The streets are also bustling with people, with many vendors setting up stalls selling all kinds of goods obtained from the city.
Although it was only five days, nearly 100,000 people were transferred to the outpost.
After all, the original Xin'an City base is just an industrial area, full of factories, not to mention how comfortable, and with the rapid increase in population, it also seems a little crowded.
Now, with the adjustment of housing price policies, of course, there are a large number of survivors who are willing to relocate.
Due to the large amount of materials harvested in the past five days, the prices of goods here have dropped again and again. Many business groups have already set their sights on Shuangzhou City and Pingfeng City, and it is undoubtedly more cost-effective to sell these materials in their hands to other cities.
And this is exactly what Ye Feng wants to see, these business groups will spread the influence of their Xin'an City.
In addition, in the past five days, they have cleared nearly one-tenth of the entire Xin'an City.
And the zombies killed are more than one million, and the number of evolution R obtained, even if Ye Feng listens to it, it is difficult to calm down.
You must know that among these zombies that were killed, at least 700,000 were second-order zombies.
These second-order evolutionary R, if converted to first-order evolutionary R, can be a full 3.5 million.
It's a number that makes people's hearts tremble when they hear it.
After obtaining this Evolution R, Ye Feng immediately sent someone to inform Yi Yalan and let her plan there be fully launched, and the supply of Evolution R on his side was completely fine.
Of course, in addition to the good news, there was also bad news during these five days. In the past few days, zombies have begun to be promoted to the third order on a large scale.
If it was said that when they first launched an attack on the zombies in the city, only one of the hundred zombies was a third-order.
So now, among the hundred zombies, at least five are third-order zombies, which is already a little terrifying.
This can be seen from the most intuitive casualty figures, on the first day, when Ye Feng and the others went to clean up the zombies, the casualty rate was only about 30 people in one day.
But yesterday's count has exceeded 160 people, which is enough for half a battalion of casualties.
But fortunately, such a loss, with the current strength of Xin'an City, is still completely bearable.
Even in five days, the total number of their soldiers increased from 18,000 to about 22,000 instead of decreasing.
The reason why this is so is also because of the victories won by the military, so that the survivors who were wavering before made up their minds to join the army and make contributions.
