Sure enough, during dinner, a maid came up and said, "Young master, the master asked you to go down to eat together." ”

"Okay, tell sù master, I'll go down right away."

The maid nodded and retreated, Zhou Zheng put down the pen in his hand, and sat quietly for a while, then stood up, tidied up his clothes, and left the room.

When I got to the large restaurant below, a headlight was turned on, illuminating the entire restaurant.

Just by glancing at it, Zhou Zheng couldn't help but sigh at the sumptuous Cheng dù of this meal.

Braised snake strips, grilled pork chops, sliced pork with isopine, turkey and mushroom soup. In the center, there is a large roasted whole leg, which is golden and oozing with a lot of oil juice, and exudes a rich fragrance. This is the thigh of a mutated curly sheep, the third-order curly sheep is not easy to see, the body is slightly larger than the yak, and it has always been a favorite source of meat for the besieged city.

Similarly, there are some local juices from the city and several bottles of dry red wine on the table.

A set of tableware is placed on a table, extremely neat.

Zhou Hongqiang prefers Western-style eating, so when he feasts his subordinates, he usually appears in this aristocratic banquet. Or in his mind, this aristocratic order should be revived in the new world, in order to achieve the most powerful purpose of domination below.

"Father!"

Zhou Zheng went down to the restaurant, asked Zhou Hongqiang, then turned his head and continued: "Uncle Yu is good, Uncle Yan is good, Captain Ding is good, Captain He is good." ”

At this banquet, not only Yu Jianzhong and Yan Chuan were present, but even Ding Baozhong, who was in charge of city affairs, and He Yanqing, who was in charge of the peripheral areas, were also present. Generally speaking, there were usually only three giants, but now there are two more than Ding Baozhong and He Yanqing, who are second only to the three giants, which is a little different.

Zhou Hongqiang just said "um", and the others responded: "Young Master Zhou." ”

"Sit!"

Zhou Hongqiang's words were very concise, pointing to a chair that was still vacant on the dining table.

Nodding his head and walking over, Zhou Zheng sat down on the only chair that was still empty.

The maid serving next to him added a bowl of soup to Zhou Zheng, and Zhou Hongqiang said beside him: "Pour him a glass of wine, he is also an adult, and he has the right to drink." The maid nodded, opened the red wine and poured a small half glass for Zhou Zheng, then stuffed the red wine and retreated behind Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng took a look, the red wine is just an ordinary domestic Changyu dry red wine, not a world-famous red wine.

However, in this new world where supplies are scarce, it is not bad to be able to get these wines, and it doesn't matter whether it is a famous foreign wine or a domestic dry red.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard all day, and they should be hungry, so let's eat first."

Zhou Hongqiang picked up the wine glass and gestured, and the others all picked up the glass and touched the glass, and then took a sip. Zhou Zheng used to stay at home, and he often drank beer, but he didn't have any preference for this wine, so he took a sip lightly, which was a little astringent, and then showed a hint of sweetness.

Zhou Hongqiang took the lead, and the six of them did not make a sound, eating silently.

To be honest, eating with Zhou Hongqiang is a bit depressing, Zhou Zheng doesn't like it very much, he takes a knife, cuts a small piece on the leg of lamb, and then puts it on a plate, and then cuts it into his mouth with a fork. Coming to the new world, Zhou Zheng tasted this extremely rare delicacy for the first time.

The kitchen work is first-class, and the roasted leg of lamb is very tender and juicy, and what is even more rare is that the skin is not hard and has a soft and crispy feeling, which is very appetizing.

There are also braised snake strips, when you eat it in your mouth, you can't imagine that this will be snake meat, it does not have the smoothness of other snake meat, but it is like eating crispy bones. This snake is also precious, a common but extremely difficult mutated snake to catch, without much attack power, but surprisingly fast.

I tried everything, and it was not difficult to see that this meal was definitely the best treat for the siege.

When he was half-full, Zhou Hongqiang stopped his hand and heard the knife and fork, wiped the residual juice on the corner of his mouth with a napkin, and took a sip with a wine glass.

The others all stopped what they were doing.

"Captain He, is the matter really confirmed?"

He Yanqing stood up, but Zhou Hongqiang motioned for him to sit down and answer.

"Chief, it has been confirmed that a large stream of poisonous corpses is moving towards the besieged city from the direction of the ancient city, and at their speed, they will appear in the safe area of the besieging city at noon tomorrow. In addition, according to the footage taken by our patrol team, there are some super giant corpses in them. ”

After getting an exact answer, Zhou Hongqiang looked at Yu Jianzhong again: "Old Yu, what do you think?" ”

Yu Jianzhong, as one of the Big Three, although he was slightly worse than Zhou Hongqiang, but after all, he leaned back in his chair and said: "Since there are giant corpses left, defense will only make us passive, I mean that we should not be allowed to enter the safe area." ”

"I agree with Lao Yu's Jianyi, the crops outside the besieged city will be harvested in more than half a month, and if they are destroyed by the poisonous corpses, the grain storage in the besieged city will be in crisis."

It was Yan Chuan who spoke, he was fat, his eyes were squinted, and what he mentioned was straight to the point.

In the new world, humanity was almost wiped out, so they had to leave the city and settle in some remote areas, where they were caught between poisonous corpses and mutant beasts. Food, on the other hand, is the most important thing, and it is where the people's hearts and minds are stabilized and their rights are strengthened, and there must be no problems.

Yan Chuan does not have military power, but he can become a big three, because he is responsible for the logistics, which is related to the food supply of tens of thousands of people in the entire besieged city.

Zhou Hongqiang's face was slightly moved, more gloomy, these are not good news, he looked at Ding Baozhong: "Captain Ding, today's transfer, is the news leaked?" ”

Ding Baozhong was in charge of the security of the besieging city, he shook his head and said, "Chief, the news has not leaked yet, but the changes on the city wall should be guessed." However, the leader can rest assured, at the beginning of our siege, everyone has experienced the moment when the end of the world appears, and even if the psychological defense line is a poisonous corpse in the city, it will not cause any chaos. ”

This made Zhou Hongqiang satisfied, the people in the besieged city, but they have experienced wind and rain, and they will not mess up when there is a storm.

"Captain He, have you figured out what caused the abnormality of the poisonous corpse?" Zhou Hongqiang always felt that there was something strange in this, but he couldn't say it for a while, just like a month ago, he went to check it in person, but except for being attacked by strange beasts, there was no abnormal movement of the poisonous corpse.

"Chief, a patrol team has been sent to reconnoitre, and there is no news on this for the time being."

Zhou Hongqiang leaned back in his chair, rubbed his temples slightly, and said for a long time: "Originally, I wanted to use the slope of the besieged city and the tall city wall, but now it seems that I can only take the initiative to attack, but I don't know how many casualties will increase." Captain He, has the specific poisonous corpse information been collected? ”

He Yanqing nodded: "It has been preliminarily confirmed, we can use three-quarters of our strength to besiege the city, and we can stop the enemy outside the safe area." ”

He Yanqing didn't say the specific information, Zhou Hongqiang is the leader, too specific things, he doesn't need to know, he just needs to know a general direction.

"Lao Yu, what do you think?"

Yu Jianzhong said decisively: "Taking the initiative to avoid affecting the crops is a consequence that we cannot afford." ”

Zhou Hongqiang closed his eyes and pondered, calculating some of the possibilities and gains and losses.

A few minutes later, Zhou Hongqiang opened his eyes and said, "Lao Yu, gather tomorrow morning, and hand over the rear to Lao Yan, well, I will let Captain Ding cooperate with Lao Yan's work." Captain He, you also contact your people. Crops must not be allowed to suffer, and they must be stopped outside the safe zone. ”

As if thinking of something, Zhou Hongqiang suddenly said: "When I am not there, Zhou Zheng will temporarily replace my power." ”

Yu Jianzhong and the others were all stunned, especially Yan Chuan, whose eyes narrowed even deeper, and glanced at each other with Yu Jianzhong, this news surprised them a little.
