Chapter 40 - Neighbors in the Neighborhood
Major Zeng, who was scorched by Zhou Zhiyuan's achievements, still agreed to his request, but let them return to the base first to discuss other important matters, so after the helicopter came to pick up all the survivors, he took the female soldier team back to the base, and on the way back, he deliberately used a drone to record the terrain around and in the distance of the future advance base, so that everyone could better understand the situation when they had a meeting.
"Your combat exploits are counted as 2,000 people, and you have no problem with half of the remaining evenly divided among the ten female soldiers, right?"
Zeng Weizhong said
"It's really yours, you have found the most resources, rescued the most survivors, and killed the most living corpses, so it is estimated that you have already blossomed in the army."
Cao Ming smiled at Zhou Zhiyuan
"Ha, who told me to be born lucky, by the way, what happened to call everyone back?"
Zhou Zhiyuan asked
"Our team found a very strange phenomenon while cleaning the village on the east bank, so let's take a look at the recorded video."
Liu Jianyu said
In the picture, when Liu Jianyu and his party were fighting on the shore of the lake, several dark green behemoths climbed ashore from the lake and devoured all the living corpses near the shore, but they ignored Liu Jianyu and his party and had no objection, and crawled back into the lake after eating up the living corpses, the creature was about 2 meters long, 1 meter wide and 1.5 meters high, looking like a giant lizard with a turtle shell, its skin was like a scaly tongue with a forked tongue from time to time, and the limbs had claws and tails ending in spikes.
Another picture recorded by a drone, a nearly 20-meter-long black giant snake with a body at least one meter thick in the fish village on the east bank of the reservoir, in addition to constantly devouring the living corpses, it will also use its tail to whip away the living corpses close to the shore of the lake one by one, as if guarding their own home to prevent any living corpses from approaching the lake, and the turtle beast that appeared in the previous film also went ashore to assist the snake to eat up the living corpses, but after the battle, the two parties did not interfere with each other from the lake into the landscape.
The two films amazed everyone when they watched it, and the speed of change in the world has been numb; Maybe no one will be surprised if a dinosaur escapes tomorrow, because humans just need to find a way to survive all the time, and there is no way to think about anything else.
"It is supposed to be a new species that changes on the day of the catastrophe, and it only eats living corpses and does not attack humans; It's amazing."
Xie Dongcheng sighed
"They seem to be protecting the reservoir from the living corpses, what is the reason for that?"
Zhou Zhiyuan wondered
"Anyway, as long as they don't attack us, I won't interfere with them, those who can kill living corpses are good friends, at present, all the habitats in the east and north near the base have been inventoried, and the mountains of thousands of square kilometers in the west and south add up to are national nature reserves, and the northeast of the reservoir is also a mountainous area, so the direction we have to guard against now is the north and east of the reservoir."
Zeng Weizhong said
The base is located on the west bank of the second largest alpine artificial lake in the province, this lake has the role of water storage, power generation, breeding, sightseeing, etc., the whole reservoir is surrounded by mountains on three sides, it is narrow and long in the north-south direction, the lake is as wide as 60 square kilometers, the capacity is 1.8 billion cubic meters, and because there is a mountain hot spring area next to it, there are several hot spring resorts for leisure and sightseeing in addition to a few small fishing villages along the coast, and there is also the only large hunting ground in the southern province on the peninsula on the northwest coast.
"The north side of these two directions is relatively desolate, that area was originally used to regulate the floods of several central provinces to lead water to the reservoir of the river, only a few agricultural towns on the two sides to walk 100 kilometers before there will be a county seat, the east is a straight line distance of about 10 kilometers There is a county seat, and then there is a prefecture-level city about 20 kilometers away, but there is a mountain between the reservoir and the county seat."
Sergeant Major Cao Ming added
"The station of the mechanized infantry brigade is about 110 kilometers in a straight line to the southwest of us, and the other base of the army aviation is 310 kilometers southwest of us, in the past, the road of these two bases was not too dangerous except for climbing over mountains and hills, and the remaining military bases, no matter which system they were, were either in the urban area or they were blocked by the city, and there were only these two military bases left that we could explore now."
Captain Xinghua said
"Personally, in addition to gathering people from the military, we can already start broadcasting radio and wireless messages to accept civilian survivors here, but now this is a vast and sparsely populated place."
Yao Li said
"The police vehicles and radio devices that I got back before can come in handy, drive the car to the stronghold close to the city and broadcast our news there, so that the survivors can find us, for example, the power station on the east bank of the reservoir, and broadcast it condescendingly in the direction of the county, saying that it can't even be received by the prefecture-level city."
Chen Guohao said
"Now there is a county-level city 60 kilometers south of the reservoir, a prefecture-level city 40 kilometers away, and a county-level city 75 kilometers west of the reservoir.
Captain Sun Shiyun said
"Okay, then the next task assignment will be assigned by the medical officer, you will be responsible for the task of searching and rescuing civilian survivors, Captain Sun and I will take the members of the original special brigade to the station of the Jibu brigade, Zhou Zhiyuan, your team will be lucky, find a way to explore the situation of the main base of the army aviation, what information do you need, you can ask the company commander Gao, and Yao Li, you are responsible for the guard and vigilance of the base, except for the troops required for the mission, the rest is under your control, and we will drive away the four 4X4 assault vehicles, and the rest will be handed over to you."
Major Zeng finally clapped his head
"Brother Zeng, wouldn't it be too unkind for the five of us to go so far away, and the troops of one of your platoons go so close?"
Zhou Zhiyuan said with a smile
"If I had your own person, I would have compared to the perverted combat power of the previous platoon, and I would have fought to the Northern Capital a long time ago, and you are embarrassed to talk here for miles, and you will disperse and disperse... I still have tasks tomorrow, so I will rest early and recuperate."
Zeng Weizhong shook his head and said disdainfully
After the meeting, everyone returned to their own rest areas, some prepared tomorrow's task equipment, some chatted about today's housekeeping, and finally everyone was very tacitly nostalgic for their families, Zhou Zhiyuan and the five people were also talking and laughing in their officers' bedrooms, which survivor and female soldier had a good figure and a beautiful face, and they had no pressure on tomorrow's task, as if it was just a longer outdoor hiking trip.
