Chapter 308: Underground
There are three small document storage boxes on the table, and the documents inside are almost squeezed in. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A big rough hand reached over the storage box, fiddling back and forth with five fingers, and finally selected one of the stacks and pulled it out vigorously.
"Wuyang, it's been a long time since we've seen the sun." Said the owner of the big hand.
"It's been a month and a half, and the zombie activity has been too frequent lately, and the monitors we have placed in various places have been accidentally damaged." Next to him was a young man in his twenties, dressed in a dark green uniform, with a pair of nearsighted glasses, and his hair looked like he had cut himself, with a somewhat uneven flat head.
"Yes, my watch has stopped for a long time, I can't see the sun, I sleep when I'm sleepy, I eat when I'm hungry, and all that's left is to sit at this table and wait, I didn't expect it to be so long." The owner of the hand rolled up his sleeves and brushed his somewhat gray unkempt hair, revealing a Chinese face, with large pores on it and a lot of stubble hanging on his chin.
This is a middle-aged man of nearly 50 years old, his eyes are bloodshot, and he is obviously very tired.
"Actually, you can fix the watch."
"Fixed? Watch how long we've been living like cockroaches and rats! ”
Facing the middle-aged man's angry questioning, the young man seemed to have gotten used to it, easily picked up a thermos from behind him, filled the middle-aged man's water cup, and said: "We are working towards a better future under your leadership every day, this is the history that will go down in history. ”
"You can talk, think about it, we've been losing since three months ago! All the way away, all the way to death, we have not won a single battle! Three months ago, how many of us were there? What now? What qualifications do you think we have to say hard work!
"That's just the mistake of those incompetent wastes, haven't we continued to damage since you took over?"
"yes, hide down there and build an underground city, but that's not what I want!" The middle-aged man slammed the document in his hand to the side, stood up and slammed his fists on the table.
"We need time, just a little more time, and when we finish building this city, when we recuperate for a while, we will succeed." The young man didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and he didn't have the impulses peculiar to young people at all, and it felt like the personalities of these two people were completely reversed.
"Time, such a thick pile of documents, full of plans, you tell me how much has been completed!" The middle-aged man's anger has not subsided, and he can't be blamed for this, no matter who it is, he will not be able to stand it for two months in the dark.
"This ...... We have limited conditions. The young man's expression was a little embarrassed, and it was obvious that he was also helpless when he talked about this.
"Hey, I can't control my temper lately, it's all about making these things happen, Wuyang, don't mind."
The middle-aged man sat down again, picked up the water that Wu Yang had poured for him just now, and took a sip.
"It's okay, you're right, it's just a pity we don't have a chance." Wu Yang shook his head nonchalantly.
"Is the food research out?" The middle-aged man picked up the scattered documents just now and asked.
"There is no progress, there is still only an alternative, and it is too difficult to feed half a million people!"
"A bunch of garbage, I'm almost vomiting all those broken roots!" The anger of the middle-aged man has come up again.
"There's no way around it, we don't have the talent for that."
"Talent talent! You tell me that the city can be done in a few years, that talent! How long does it take for talent to emerge? ”
"This..."
"Forget it, I guess I'll have to stay underground for the rest of my life!" The middle-aged man turned off the fire and leaned back in his chair weakly.
"Knock knock!" There was a knock on the door.
The middle-aged man motioned for Wu Yang to open the door.
"Colonel Wu, General Hong, this is the report from the monitoring room just now." The man dressed in a military uniform, put a report on the table, and slowly withdrew.
The middle-aged man frowned, picked up the report, and tore the file bag on the outside directly.
As his gaze shifted, his face became more and more ugly, and he finally slapped the report on the table.
"General Hong, what's going on?" When Wu Yang saw this, he guessed that it was not good news.
"See for yourself, all ground operations have been terminated, wait for these zombies to go away." While Wu Yang was flipping through the report, General Hong said.
"This report is too vague, what does a large number mean?" Wu Yang's face is not good-looking.
"I don't know, let's hide anyway, we don't have the ability to continue fighting." General Hong waved his hand and motioned for Wu Yang to pass the word.
Wu Yang put down the papers, opened the heavy stone door and walked out.
It was an underground fortress where all the excavated stone was used to build various structures, which were constantly dismantled, constructed, smelted every day, and the excess sand and earth were transported to the ground and piled up into several hills.
The internal electricity supply is all from groundwater, because the nuclear experts have long since been killed by zombies.
The few coals that are dug up are used in various smelting.
There is no sense of science and technology here, nor is there any luxury and indestructibility, the craftsmanship is very rough, and those who don't know think it is the tomb of the ancients.
However, this underground space is not small, like an anthill, constantly digging down, constantly reinforced, and constantly expanded.
Thanks to the full efforts of everyone, a considerable area has been created, and the underground with a diameter of fifty kilometers has been hollowed out.
Don't think that this range is small, you know, there is a façade underground.
More than 300 meters have been dug into the ground!
Fortunately, although all kinds of talents have entered a state of shortage here, there are many talents in architecture, and according to their logic, it is possible to build a depth of about a thousand meters here.
However, it is clear that people in construction are not experts in geology, and although there are all kinds of minerals that are needed, it is too difficult to dig! And there is also a small coal mine, you know, built on a coal mine, it is very difficult to reinforce!
But with the strength of 500,000 people, these people still dug such a huge crypt alive!
You must know how long Yao Shaozhi has dug up the Tomorrow Number, and there are many people and great strength, and it is indeed true.
A large number of people means that food has become a top priority, but it is already as close to the city as possible, but the food and clothing of 500,000 people is still a big problem.
The temporary solution is to dig up the roots, which grow so fast that they are broken up to make food.
This is much more unpalatable than the roots of the grain seeds that Yao Shaozhi ate, this is wood! Eating broken sawdust can be imagined how difficult it is to swallow! (To be continued.) )
