The harvest of this operation was unexpected, although it failed to catch the old witch, but it also gave her a serious injury. At least for a short time, her base camp in Dengwan City will be much more stable, and she will no longer make waves in Linjiang City.

And Ding You, the hatred in his heart has been dissipated a lot, and some people have material harvest, and his mood naturally improves.

It turned out that there were still a lot of zombies in the urban area of Linjiang City, but the old witch used a special trap method to trap all the guys with the virus crystal nucleus in a small range of cages.

This ruined city in the last days is full of cages, broken houses, campuses, hotels and guesthouses, all of which can be used to house zombies, and all that needs to be consumed is some arc interception nets.

Ding You also knew the real name of the old witch from the mouths of those captives, the name of a very ordinary woman, but he didn't expect the old witch Liu Qin to have some ideas and means in dealing with zombies.

The reason why so many zombies were imprisoned was probably to harvest their virus crystal nuclei in the future, but now those living dead have all become Ding You's trophies along with the captives and survivors found in the underground shelter.

The synthetic food processing equipment hidden underground by the old witch has a daily production capacity of 360 tons. In other words, it can be calculated based on the daily consumption of 1.2 kilograms of food per person, which is enough to feed as many as 300,000 people.

Such a large production figure really shocked Ding You.

This means that as long as the operators are skilled, have a steady supply of energy and raw materials, and supply 3.6 tonnes of raw food from the supermarket space or food growing and cultivation silos, these machines can expand their production to 360 tonnes for themselves.

It's just exaggerated, it's scary!

3.6 tons of food is 3,600 energy points, even if all of them are obtained from the supermarket space, it is not difficult to feed the existing population of the base. After all, with 3,600 points of energy, it is enough for the Deep Blue Star Base of less than 40,000 people to eat for a week.

Oh my God, if the food planting and cultivation warehouse equipment is used to provide food raw materials, then the supermarket space can be suspended from obtaining food.

The more Ding You thought about it, the more excited he became, but it would take a bit of effort to move these pieces of equipment back.

And after calming down, Ding You also knew that the synthetic food produced by these equipment was mainly for emergency use, and the nutritional content was definitely not as good as the food produced in the cultivation warehouse, let alone the fresh food provided in the supermarket space.

Otherwise, how could these survivors in front of them still be so yellow-skinned, and Ding You was also keenly aware that many houses in this underground space had empty bottles of nutrients.

It seems that synthetic foods can provide a feeling of fullness in a short period of time, but long-term use of nutrition will not keep up, and you have to take it with nutrition injections to ensure survival.

In this way, the planting and cultivation equipment in the base needs to be continuously expanded, at least not completely dependent on these synthetic food processing equipment. It can only be used as a supplement for fresh food sources, and let Zhou Qingquan and his biomedical expert group study it well in the future, and strive to make synthetic foods also take into account the nutritional content, at least in terms of gaps, they can't pull down too many original foods.

Captives and newly discovered remnants of survivors are too easy to look after. With the protection of the radar car, the induction collars or electronic chips they wear are all controlled by Ding You, and now it is estimated that no one dares to let them escape.

Although Ding You was unhappy to see the armed soldiers who surrendered, when he thought of the bomb he threw in the middle of the night last night, it was estimated that the ammunition stocks in the base were not very much. These captives happened to go back and arrange for them to work as laborers in the arsenal, and let them atone for their sins through labor, which could be regarded as labor reform.

Of the 21,000 survivors in total, many of them were elderly, women, girls and children, and the proportion of young men was not particularly prominent.

Ding You calculated his current acceptance capacity, and estimated that it was not a big problem to start the apartment buildings on Sixth Avenue and the main base and settle down.

Don't look at the fact that they are all hungry and look like they have been malnourished for a long time, Ding You is confident that they will be brought back to recuperate for a few days, and they will be the new force of the Deep Blue Star Base in the future. After all, to develop and grow, the living will always be a good thing in the last days.

Besides, the captives and survivors are all labor that can be put to good use when the equipment is carried back.

On the way from the center of Linjiang to the Deep Blue Star Base, there were many long convoys and pedestrians, and the long queue of black pressure was a little overwhelmed at a glance.

Thanks to the fact that there are still some transport trucks in the base, and there are several large trucks hidden in Linjiang City, Ding You ordered everyone to carry all the equipment into the car and rush to the base.

After the zombies around the Civic Square were cleaned up, more than 400 catties of virus crystal nuclei were harvested, and the number of zombies eliminated should be more than 5,000 after a simple replacement.

This time, the old witch was kind, and just now in the crematorium of the underground shelter, she found the complete crystal card extraction and production equipment left by the old witch, and there was still inventory in it, a full 2 million crystal cards.

Without air threats and radio interference, the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft sent by the Deep Blue Star Base carefully searched the urban area of Linjiang and found that the number of zombies imprisoned everywhere was still very large, at least not less than 500,000.

If calculated according to this number, those old zombies who have been "surviving" for several years in the last days will each give birth to about 45 grams of virus crystal nuclei, so the total number of crystal cards will easily exceed 20 million.

This is really Ding You's "granary" in the future, as long as the two bridges in the southeast are guarded to prevent the zombies from escaping, this is Ding You's real crystal card warehouse in the future!

Ding You left a few heavy tanks and a team of 100 people in Linjiang City, mainly occupying the buildings adjacent to the two bridges in the southeast area to guard and prevent other forces from taking advantage of the situation. As for the cultivation of the guarding forces in the later stage, Ding You planned to go back and settle down and then transfer some personnel and equipment over.

The Deep Blue Star Base had already learned the news from Ding You in advance, and the preparations had been prepared.

Maybe the old witch Liu Qin was hit hard, and she didn't think about coming to fight with Ding You for a while. Therefore, when the large army returned to the range of the Deep Blue Star base, there were no additional losses at all.

However, when I arrived at the base, the scene was lively, and with so many residents added at once, the entire base was busy. Even Ding You had to be busy picking up clothes and moving quilts from the supermarket space to settle these new residents.

If it weren't for the small gains in Linjiang City, Ding You really wouldn't have so many energy points to consume. However, even with more than 2 million crystal cards to replenish, this arrangement has consumed more than 1 million energy points.

Ding You is a little reluctant to use it, after all, he still has to provide personnel and weapons for those teams left behind in Linjiang City, and all the energy points are used up, what can be used to ensure the logistics of those left-behind sergeants!

The Sixth Avenue living area was originally designed to have a maximum of 35,000 residents, but Ding You almost filled it in a few days.

Fortunately, the armed personnel do not live with ordinary residents, and the vigilant patrol units live in the guard base of the main base. In a camp that can accommodate 1,000 people at a time, it is not a problem to accommodate the existing 750 guards, not to mention that there is a team of 250 people guarding the prisoners at the arsenal.

As for the regular combat units, the number is now set at 4,000 men, including two battalions of 900-man artillery battalions.

Although the new recruits have not yet formed combat effectiveness, with the improvement of equipment and training, I believe that these men who are crawling around in the last days will adapt to their new roles as soon as possible.

Since the barracks in Yamashita New Town are not yet that large, some of the soldiers live in the spare apartment buildings in the sixth block and the main base.

The more than 2,000 captives were all driven to the arsenal by Ding You, where they stepped up the production of weapons and ammunition, and some worked as coolies to build a new synthetic food processing factory. There are still a few open spaces on the ground of the main base, and there are also several buildings that were originally used as chariot warehouses, and Ding You asked Qin Mutian to renovate them and use them to install food processing equipment.

At this time, Tang Jianye and Qiao Guangji also had something to do, and began to work overtime to assemble the machine with the members of the technical team under them.

Of course, the entire Deep Blue Star Base is running rapidly, there are many people, and there are a lot of things to do in terms of logistics support alone. Tian Hanqiu, a professor of sociology, must not be idle, and must pay close attention to sorting out and formulating various management systems to ensure the smooth operation of the entire base.

And Zhou Qingquan and others in the biological laboratory are also very busy now.

Ding You found a lot of experts and scholars who were very capable in scientific research from those refugees in Linjiang City, and they joined the research team of Deep Blue Star, and they could also help Zhou Qingquan a lot.

Ding You's requirements are actually very simple, now that they have the processing and manufacturing equipment for synthetic food, they need Zhou Qingquan and them to develop some raw materials that cooperate with food production. There are only new things, and you can't use equipment to produce artificial stem cells, and you can't make them eat, so Dr. Zhou's courage on his shoulders is not light.

When it comes to managing a base in the last days, it's hard to say, but it's actually quite easy to say. Life in the world is nothing more than a few major elements, food, clothing, housing, transportation and security.

Now in the Deep Blue Star Base, there is Ding You's supermarket space to provide fresh food, and if it is insufficient, there will be food planting and cultivation equipment expanded to 200 acres in the future. And more importantly, now that there is synthetic food equipment, as long as you pay attention to the nutrient injection and matching of artificial food, it is not difficult to feed hundreds of thousands of people.

In terms of housing, the existing base building can fully meet the needs of the existing personnel to have a warm residence, and if it is to be expanded in the later stage, then with the help and guidance of the defense technical consultants led by Xiao Han and Qiao Guangji, with the installation of advanced building security equipment, it is not difficult to expand the residential area in the new urban area under the mountain.

If you wear it, there are so many women in the base, you can't underestimate people's ability to needlework, not to mention that Ding You also specially collected clothing production and weaving equipment. So in terms of wearing it, the current Deep Blue Star base also has enough capacity.
