Chapter 580: Day by Day
If it weren't for the map drawn by Dong Yiqing, Leng Hao and the others would not have been able to find this bullet factory that has only been opened in the past few years and can be regarded as top-secret information.
"It should be in front of you."
After checking the map again, Leng Hao raised his head and looked at the previous road, which had been blocked by a large number of collapsed houses.
"Everyone, be on alert!"
Under the reminder of the black eagle, the people with rifles in their hands stepped on the road full of bricks and ruins one by one, carefully exploring the surroundings.
Zhang Yi even had a nail gun in their hands.
Now the rat expedition has reached the point of exhaustion.
The entire advance team had less than a thousand rounds of ammunition.
The monsters encountered along the way had to be solved by Liu Siyuan and them in armor and with manpower as much as possible.
Thanks to the fact that there is now another person with strong force in the base, people will not be overstretched.
Liu Siyuan and He Tengyun have shown superhuman strength in front of people many times, which has made Leng Hao, who is not afraid to use bullet time for the time being, a lot easier.
"Pass!"
The experience of these outings has made the people of the current Rat Expedition full of a sense of suspicion about the outside world.
Compared to the peaceful and tranquil base, it seems that the world is full of dangers.
"Now there are no wild vegetables and fruits in this area."
Song Xiaya took Liu Feng and them back to Leng Hao, and said a little tiredly.
The advance party that went out could not carry much food, so they had to eat in the wild.
This is also one of the reasons why Leng Hao is desperate to find fuel reserves and cars, and the weight carrying capacity of people nowadays is too low.
As winter approaches, it becomes increasingly difficult to find food in the wild.
"This kind of expedition will really get more and more difficult in the future."
It has been almost two years since the end of the world, and there is no production and manufacturing, and a large number of foods once made by humans have rotted and spoiled in the wind and rain, and the changes of the seasons have also made various animals and plants scarce.
"Let's hold on."
Looking at the earth full of wreckage, Leng Hao also showed a trace of helplessness.
"Oops! Mouse! ”
"Don't scream!"
Zhang Yi, who was walking in the front to explore the way, suddenly let out a surprise exclamation and chased towards the grass.
"Click! Click! ”
The black eagle behind them, Wang Xiaohui and the others immediately took over the sentry post and looked around vigilantly.
Originally, this kind of behavior was not allowed, but now this is something that cannot be helped, and the advance team is about to run out of food.
"Through here, there is about one more hill to be able to reach the bullet factory."
When people lit the cooking smoke and prepared to barbecue a nest of rats and a green snake they found, Song Xiaya looked at the mountain in the distance with some longing.
"When we find those supplies, then Lao Tzu will have a chicken in his left hand and a duck in his right hand......"
Leng Hao's spirit of making fun in bitterness makes people cry and laugh, and chickens and ducks? In this world, the chickens and ducks in those farms must have starved to death.
…………
"Company commander, we did spot survivors moving towards our side."
Leng Hao: They didn't know that their whereabouts had already been exposed.
Several Wehrmacht servicemen, with some jagged hair and whitewashed clothes, were reporting to a serviceman in his mid-thirties, without an arm.
The one-armed soldier, who had the rank of captain on his shoulder, was carefully trimming his beard with a dagger.
"Well, someone is finally coming. Let's decide, what should we do? ”
Zheng Ximing put down the dagger in his hand and looked at the soldiers who came to him one after another when they heard the news.
Once upon a time, his company numbered more than a hundred people.
From the cooking squad leader for many years to the recruits who enlisted in the army last year, Zheng Ximing can call out their names.
And now, there are only thirteen people left in the entire company.
When the apocalyptic times broke out, Zheng Ximing decisively killed the mutant instructor and led the soldiers to eliminate all the comrades who were parasitized by the Amida protozoa.
Then, Zheng Ximing led people to stick to the factory.
Because when they came here, they were told that this is one of the pilot research and development bases of the country's new generation of rifles.
It is a great national defense project.
Day after day, month after month.
Without the government's radio waves, without the orders of their superiors, finally some people in the company began to seize the few foods, completely forgetting their duties as soldiers.
In this civil strife, Zheng Ximing lost an arm, but he survived with the soldiers who stood firm in his faith.
And then parasitic diseases, flu, and various illnesses caused the researchers to die one by one.
Now there are only thirteen people left in the bullet factory, two of whom are still factory technicians.
"It is impossible for the country to come to the rescue of us again, and I still advocate self-help."
A technician looked up at Zheng Ximing.
"We've searched this area for a long time, and we don't have any production tools. In the base, we were able to survive by growing vegetables and mountain springs. ”
"What is there to communicate with the survivors? Haven't you had enough of the last loss? ”
Some of the soldiers said babblingly.
After some examples, they don't trust these outsiders.
"However, we can't go on like this forever, have you forgotten the scene where those comrades-in-arms left one by one because of illness?"
"We're only thirteen, and we're too vulnerable in these days when there's no security."
"So what do you say? One by one, these survivors are trying to steal guns and bullets, and you promise they won't turn their guns on us when they get their weapons? ”
People chattered until Zheng Ximing raised his head.
"Let's go and arrest the survivors first, and then gradually discern them, and let them have credible people among them join us."
A gleam flashed in Zheng Ximing's eyes.
"We need to replenish people, but we have to be trustworthy."
"Company commander, are you going to prepare for development?"
"Develop a fart, find some people to join the group to keep warm."
Zheng Ximing scolded helplessly.
Everyone understands what Zheng Ximing meant, because they have always held the mentality of sticking to the base and waiting for the state's orders, and they have lost the best opportunity for development.
Within 50 kilometers of this circumference, there is no trace of human activity at all.
If you want to make use of the mechanical ammunition in the factory, the first premise is that there must be people!
"In fact, if we start to develop directly after the end of the world, maybe we will also be a hegemon."
"What nonsense? We had to be at the mercy of the state. ”
Zheng Ximing's eyes widened and he looked at one of his subordinates.
"What's so good about this kind of broken era that you can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes? Fighting under the red flag at the beginning is our best life. ”
With Zheng Ximing's words, everyone present fell silent.
