Power comes out of the barrel of a gun, this sentence is very reasonable, especially in troubled times, power is not as good as guns, and some people are not as good as soldiers. Whoever controls the army has the right to speak!

And the last days are more chaotic than the troubled times, but at the same time, the control of military power is more important!

After contacting Chen Guorong's side, although he didn't know much, and the other party didn't have any confidence in Li Ye, Li Ye still learned a lot of information about the overall situation today.

"It seems that the real people in charge of this base are a few leaders of the military region, although I heard that several provincial political leaders and M city leaders are still there, but they are only responsible for the regular work of the base, and the real decision-making power is not in their hands."

When Li Ye came back from Chen Guorong's side, he immediately told everyone some of the situation. First of all, the status of the military personnel of this base is very high! Very high!

To put it mildly, the survivors of the A-level treatment at the base have to give three points of courtesy when they see the soldiers.

In fact, this is normal, the base is now maintained and protected by the army, and of course enough attention must be paid to the people who protect themselves. It's not normal to be held in power by a few politicians like in P City.

The good news is that, at least in general, people in the military hold on to power better than politicians.

"It seems that several leaders of the military region are not fools......" Li Luoji, who rarely expresses his opinions, occasionally pops up a few words.

After a long time, everyone also found that this middle-aged uncle seemed to have a very bad impression of the official political axe, and it could even be said that he had a faint hatred.

Although I am curious, I don't want to ask about this kind of thing.

"Well, for the time being, the operation of the base is quite normal, the military and political divisions are very fine, and the people of the political axe are responsible for the maintenance of the base, including all kinds of water and electricity, food distribution, and then pacify the more than 200,000 people in the base."

Those people don't know how long they have been doing these things, they are very skilled, and they can see why this town, which was originally desolate and now so lively that it can't crowd people, is in order.

And now because of the large population, you can still see some people building new houses with some simple materials. After all, a small town with only a few tens of thousands of registered people has suddenly become more than 200,000 people, and it will definitely not be able to live. Even if you can use all of it, you can't use it.

Fortunately, there is a cement factory in the town, and it is still very surviving, so I don't have to worry about raw materials for the time being. And the town has probably widened a large area outward, and a fence has been built.

Houses are now being built in the fenced lots.

These are all political axe people who are in charge, but they are only in charge and have no real power. All raw materials, water plants, power plants, and more importantly, food storage points and weapons depots are under the control of the army.

These things are strictly distributed on a daily basis, and the people of the political axe are nothing more than executors, and they take as much as they give them.

Military power, food, and weapons are all in the hands of the leaders of the military region, so it is no wonder that the people in charge now are not politicians with political axes. But that's fine, at least you don't have to mess up the base with those fools with all your brains.

At the beginning, the materials were relatively sufficient, although I don't know how many, but judging from the situation of the people in the entire base, it should not have reached the final point.

"But today I got a little bit of a breath from Leslie Chan, maybe our opportunity has come......"

Although the base is now very stable, the person in charge of this base seems to be quite smart, and knows the allusions of sitting and eating empty mountains and preparing for a rainy day.

It is very difficult to maintain a small town of more than 200,000 people. Although it can't be compared with the city of the past, or even less than a county seat, it was also the population of a big city in ancient times!

The daily consumption of more than 200,000 people is a huge number.

Now the entire base is supplied by a coal-fired power plant in the town, and although it is backed by the mountains of the coal mine, the coal resources here have long been exhausted.

Then there is the hydraulics, I heard that it is the extracted groundwater, which seems to be no problem for the time being, and there is a sewage treatment plant in the town, which can barely be recycled.

And food, at the end of the day, this thing is the hardest place right now, there is no output, only consumption. Even if the resources of the entire M city were emptied at the beginning, there are more than 200,000 people! How long can it last?

And some people in the base are still big fish and meat, it can't be too long. There is also the army's weapon consumption, Chen Guorong didn't say much about this, but obviously there will not be enough stock.

"Today I saw something from Lieutenant Colonel Chen Guorong, the base has the same system as we did in P City, encouraging the survivors in the base to form teams to go out to find supplies, and the materials found do not need to be handed in at all, they can keep them by themselves!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised, they thought that there would be a hunting system, after all, as long as they are not idiots, they will not sit and eat nothing.

But what you find can be kept by yourself and not handed in, and the person in power here is so good?

"It seems that the boss of our base is a good person?" Levi said in a joking tone.

"Don't be happy yet, I thought the same thing as you at first, but after careful questioning, I realized that the truth is not what we thought."

It turned out that Li Ye only learned after asking Chen Guorong specifically that although the policy of the base is to keep what he finds, this is to return it with his life, and the political axe will not be collected, which has won the hearts of the people of the entire base.

But those survivors who went out hunting were not easy, although they were able to find some good things back. You can eat your own food, and some luxury goods such as cigarettes, alcohol, and cosmetics can be sold in some special markets in the base, or exchanged for what you need.

However, a large part of those materials were directly transferred to the hands of those in charge of the base in one way.

"Weapon Rental!" Li Ye said a very strange name.

Under his explanation, everyone finally knew what it meant. Some survivors who go out hunting cannot go out without anything, and some necessary tools and weapons still need to be prepared.

And apparently the army's firearms, some military jeeps are the best option. But of course the people in the army won't use it for you. But you can rent it.

And the cost of renting is those supplies! You can even rent a Type 98 heavy tank according to a price list set by the army!

Of course, that price can make people shake their heads directly......
