Chang Bing and Luo Xue saw that there were zombies in front of them, and they took the initiative to block the left. Leng Yuhan was also next to the two of them, making a gesture of active fighting.

Zheng Jieming originally wanted to let the woman avoid it first, but when he saw that the three of them took the initiative to step forward, he didn't say anything.

"Now that there are not enough people, it would be best if women could fight." Zheng Jieming thought, "You should probably think of them as women who can fight independently, after all, there are not too many zombies now." ”

is really facing zombies, although Chang Bing's performance in the battle is not bad, but the coordination of his hands and feet is far inferior to Leng Yuhan.

Although Leng Yuhan's height is not very high, in the face of zombies, he slashes cleanly with a knife, his eyes are decisive and sharp, and he does not drag mud and water.

And Luo Xue, who is good-looking, slashes zombies with a knife, but she doesn't seem ambiguous, but she feels a little heroic.

Zheng Jieming and others also threw themselves into the battle against zombies. A large number of zombies wearing camouflage uniforms were distributed around the factory warehouse and were killed by them one by one.

"Wearing camouflage uniforms, will it be a soldier?" Luo Xue asked, her sleeves stained with some blood.

"Definitely not, it's supposed to be the one who works here." Zheng Jieming replied while killing.

After solving this wave of corpses that were not too big, everyone cautiously walked towards the blue factory.

This factory is not actually fully enclosed———— it is not so much a factory building, but a larger shed with a roof but only two walls!

The inside of this shed is full of logs one by one, which are tied together with iron chains, and some are stabilized with brackets, and they are stacked very high, about two to three stories high.

This is a log yard warehouse.

And next to the factory warehouse, there are several bungalows in the extension, which have accommodation beds, although they look a little shabby, but they are good places to stay.

At the back of the bungalow, there is a large processing workshop, in which there are some equipment such as chicks and workbeds, and some wooden planks are piled up next to it.

"Looks like this is a lumber factory?" Geng Zhi said, "How? Do you think it's okay here? ”

Zheng Jieming nodded, did not say anything, continued to walk outside the house, and looked around the factory carefully.

This is not a single factory———— several similar but functionally different factories are set together along a hill on the edge of the city, and what they all have in common seems to be related to wood products.

And on the westernmost side of the factory, a railway line sticks out lonely, directly into a large blue factory shed.

Three or four rusty open cars were parked in the shed, which was littered with planks on the left and right.

The entire factory area is full of wooden pallets, and forklifts are parked in some places.

Zombies are naturally everywhere, and several people are killing together, and zombies are not particularly difficult to deal with.

"I think so." Zheng Jieming said, "This entire factory area is suitable as a complete base. There are no particularly tall buildings around, and this is already a high point, and the area is wide and circuitous. The roads near the periphery are lower than here, and the defenses are good for people and zombies. ”

"I also think so, that you can add an iron railing to the perimeter – you can put the railing in the middle of the road on the platform outside. If one day the black clouds disperse, you can engage in breeding on the platform ahead. Geng Zhi said, "The piled up wood can also be used, at least you don't have to worry about firewood for a short time." ”

"It's just that the bed is in poor condition. Moreover, living in this kind of bungalow, they are not connected to each other, and the door of each room is facing the factory shed that is not closed, which means that as long as everyone walks out of the door, it is equivalent to being exposed to the outside, will it be unsafe? Luo Xue asked.

"This factor does exist. It is enough to seal the gap between the factory shed and the bungalow. Only the exit facing the hill is left behind, and a door can be added. This is easy to do if the cool water is in the ...... Ahem, a few of us men can figure out a way to nail a door and a tin wall. Geng said straightly.

"This is not a permanent base, it is only used as an emergency shelter for us to search for supplies in the city, and a storage place for some supplies." Zheng Jieming continued to explain, "Moreover, if there is a special circumstance, we can completely abandon the watchtower and come here." ”

Soon, the new backup base was chosen.

Immediately, the people began to clean the room, the women removed all the items that were not very "clean" in the bungalow, and the men began to erect the fence. Fortunately, this is a lumber mill, and the wood and various tools are extremely complete, and everyone quickly encloses a relatively closed area for whatever they want.

"Here, it's called a garden villa!" Geng Zhi pushed the last nail into the factory shed and went around the back door.

The woman has also cleaned up the bungalow, and there is a new wooden bed in the factory warehouse next to it, which can be used when you take it.

．．．．．．

Over the next few days, the two groups took turns arriving at the new base, each using their own ideas to improve the base's defenses.

Soon, the entire timber mill was enclosed. On the front side, this is nothing more than an unanomalous abandoned factory shed.

"What do you think about fire prevention?" In order to solve the fire prevention problem, Hua Bong replaced part of the baffle with iron sheets. It's a little safer this way.

However, the most prominent security vulnerability in the entire factory warehouse is always the point of fire prevention.

"Defensively, it's not difficult to use the timber to set up an observation deck on the top of the shed." At the suggestion of Zhang Xiushan and Jin Yue, everyone built a platform along the factory shed and wooden wall.

From the inside, it looks like a medieval Robin Hood wooden fortress, and people can climb onto the platform and shoot at the outside under the cover of the factory shed or the planks built behind.

In order to make the battle more convenient, we even spent two days to run through all the platforms———— not to shuttle back and forth between different sheds, as long as from the heights, you can go from the westernmost railway transportation shed to the easternmost finished wood storehouse.

"You can use this as an aerial highway, which means that even if someone tries to set fire, we can use the passage above to quickly transfer and even escape!" Hua Bong explained to everyone with great satisfaction.

This timber processing factory area soon carried more of everyone's life and work functions, and the watchtower became a transit place for fishing.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

On Sun Cheng's side, all kinds of pressure began to pile up on him.

The greatest pressure lies in the functioning of the small estate.

When the site was selected for the small manor, the place Sun Cheng chose was not close to the city.

He simply took a small village on the plains as the starting point, surrounded the land, dug a trench, and built an earthen wall.

In his plan, the small estate should be an area based on agriculture. He wanted to set aside an area where farmers could farm with peace of mind without worrying about a zombie or even a group of zombies popping up from a corner.

He did it.

Except for a small number of armed men, the core activity that the rest of them need to do is farming.

But now farming itself is no longer efficient.

The person in charge of managing the small manor had already asked Sun Cheng for instructions for several days.

"Now that we can't grow any of our previous food crops, and now there is no sunlight all day, should we continue to wait, or just dig up all the seeds we planted before?"

"We've started growing leeks on a small scale, but we can't feed more than 100 people on these alone! Mr. Sun, do you see if we have any other way to go? Do you want to convert all these people to hunting? Or simply move places? ”

Sun Cheng listened to the people from the small manor asking for instructions, but he felt a deep headache.

No matter how abundant the food reserves are, they can't catch up with the three meals consumed by a large family every day.

Even if you hunt and fish, there is no guarantee that the current order can be guaranteed.

Sun Cheng knew very well that these survivors———— if they had food to eat, everyone would be able to get along safely, and once they encountered a shortage of food, it would be even more difficult to manage the two bases.

"You go out first, let me think about it." Sun Cheng had a headache and blasted away the messenger of the small manor, and asked Zhao Ying to arrange a temporary residence for the man.

Then Sun Cheng took out a piece of paper, a pencil, and began to calculate on the paper.

"138 people, 231 people over here, plus a dozen people from the north shore." "With the existing reserves, it seems that it is difficult to maintain the original stability. ”

In the past few days, Sun Cheng has been trying to increase the amount of food harvested, and he has even forced many armed personnel who were not responsible for production and relatively weak people to participate in hunting, fishing, and going out to search, but the supplies still cannot reach the reserves that satisfy him and rest assured.

In his eyes, only when he reaches a year's reserve can he truly feel at ease.

Now, it's only going to last two months.

Sun Cheng stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the crowd in the yard who had just brought back the prey. Brown hat Yao Tianzheng organized everyone to deal with prey, skin and cut meat.

He took a look, and the prey today was only two fawns, but there were more than forty hunters on the way.

"Actually, getting more people involved in killing and plundering is the better way to solve the food problem......" Sun Cheng said softly, his hand touched a thin layer of gray glass, and gently drew two horizontal lines on it.

Then he erased one of the horizontal lines heavily.
