August is the rainy season for this region.

The night rain is lingering and chilly.

The two rangers, however, took advantage of the night and rain to hunt the zombies in the mining area.

They are equipped with monocles, which give them the ability to have night vision. The special breathing mask isolates the breath, making it impossible for the zombies to perceive their presence through their sense of smell.

Theoretically, the sweat glands of the human body are the main source of 'human flavor', but the rangers are modified, they are like dogs, they have no sweat glands, and their skin plays more of an isolation effect, which makes them more resistant to cold than ordinary people, but it breeds a problem, how to regulate body temperature?

Exercise, especially the vigorous sport of fighting, generates a lot of heat, and is it also solved by sticking out the tongue, like a dog?

The truth is, almost. They have special artificial organs that control the heat, and if that doesn't work, the excess heat will be expelled through the mouth in a breathing way.

That's why they wear special breathing masks, without which they would be able to move like a train, even in summer, they will breathe white air.

The ranger's dress is extremely compact, as if he just came out wearing a far-infrared corset, in fact, this is an external antique nano clothing, which has good protection against scratches, cuts, and thorns, and can effectively reduce the damage from zombies.

Its disadvantage is that it has poor protection against blunt blows, such as the fist of the muscle bully, or the kinetic impact of the bullet, or the shock wave of the explosion, which has no resistance.

The ranger also has a cloak that pulls the wind, this cloak is like the skin of a chameleon, providing mimicry camouflage, using this cloak to cover himself, and he can instantly blend in with the surrounding environment, more than 3 meters, as long as he does not move, even if he stares, it is difficult to find clues.

But the real strength of the rangers is their ability to recover, as long as there is recovery time, they will soon be able to become alive again, their stem cell genes have opened the memory module, even if it is an injury like a broken bone, as long as the position is roughly corrected, the remaining details, can be corrected by the memory module itself, this system is called the self-surgical system, and the advanced ones already have a magical taste.

This is also the reason why the soldiers of the Shining System are all elites.

It can be said that these soldiers are the simplified versions of the Space Marines wearing high-end colonial costumes on the Hill.

The Space Marines from Warhammer 40k have the combat power to destroy modern human civilization with a single detachment, with extraordinary talent and amazing will, coupled with first-class biochemical transformation, specially born for war.

The Space Marines of the Hill are not as unique and potential as the real Space Marines, but they are not much inferior. After all, there are Kane's evil god cells and high-end technology, and the talent is not to say, genetic technology is not comparable to the biochemical transformation of Warhammer 40k, it is deeper, more detailed, and changes from the source, without hard injuries and shortcomings.

Only the amazing will can't be compared. Because the absolute will is amazing, all driven by emotion. That is what is often said to be cold on the outside and hot on the inside. This will, strong has almost no upper limit. At least in theory.

And Kane's series has always taken the route of erasing feelings and absolutely ruthless machines, such a stable play and not easy to have problems, but the upper limit is not good, and it can't explode.

Correspondingly, the soldiers provided by the shining system also have this kind of problem, they can indeed see death as home, but expect them to be able to write legends and create miracles, basically can't do it, but all of them are emotionally rich to the extreme, and the strength of 200% or 300% after the explosion can be deduced, and Kane's creation has no such possibility. Their upper limit is locked, but the lower limit is also locked.

Zhao Wenrui himself prefers the latter, counting on a miracle to save the country, he can only say that this country should die, correspondingly, as a commander, he will not expect to win by someone's explosion, so he needs to play a stable combat power more than a crazy hero.

The soldiers given by the shining system were so appetizing to Zhao Wenrui that he started to try the tactics of going around in circles when there were only 4 rangers.

He remotely commands one Ranger to seduce the zombies, and uses the other three Ranger as fixed firepower.

The rangers can be at the level of being ridden by zombies and still calmly archery.

Their shooting skills are not as good as those of the Hawkeye, and their skills are poor, but they are steady.

All soldiers also have a sharpening system, through the battle to complete the grinding, the completion of the grinding can be promoted to a veteran, there is no closer change, the veteran means that the coordination of the body has been corrected to the best, the strength of the all-round completion of a jump, correspondingly, the sacrifice is potential, even if he was expected to become a superhero, after the refinement of this system, it is also a veteran to the end.

This setting is also very suitable for Zhao Wenrui's spleen and stomach.

Although it is a soldier who does not want to be a general, not a good soldier.

But there is a specialization in the art industry. How to become an elite soldier, this topic is enough for ordinary people to spend their best years studying.

Modern countries have implemented the non-commissioned officer system in the army, which is the proof, if you want to deviate from command and management, you will climb the road to the sergeant major, and if you want to deviate from technology, then you will run on the road of various professional examinations such as guns and artillery sergeants. I don't dare to say that it's a lifetime series.,It's basically enough to play before the age reaches the station.。

This is actually pointing out in a change of direction: the starting point of being a soldier is low, and don't dream of being ambitious.

And these soldiers in front of them can be said to be in line with this logic, and they have achieved the extreme, the real elite.

Zhao Wenrui naturally retains great confidence in him.

The actual operation did not disappoint him, after giving the order to give priority to attacking key targets, rather than attacking the closest target to himself, the rangers were able to complete the instructions very well, and repeatedly hit the zombie group in the position of the temporary backward, but in fact more threatening rapid corpses, mad corpses.

Compared to these two types of zombies, ordinary zombies are easier to be distanced by rangers, which means that a smaller space can complete the 'kite' tactic.

Similarly, leading a bunch of ordinary zombies around in circles is also less risky.

However, there are still problems when it comes to specific tactics.

For example, the problem of hate retention caused by poor speed.

Simply being exposed to the target's field of vision and triggering its pursuit is only a relatively superficial hatred, but a certain distance away from it may cause ordinary zombies to give up the pursuit, or 'empathize with other loves'.

But ordinary zombies are not at the same rate as fast and fast corpses and crazy corpses, and if you accommodate ordinary zombies, you will be chased by fast and crazy corpses.

In the face of such embarrassment, Zhao Wenrui specified two specific measures.

If the number of Swift Corpses and Madness Corpses is small, kill them first.

On the contrary, priority is given to cleaning up ordinary zombies, and let the one who pulls the hatred lead the swift corpse to run a few more laps.

Of course, there are new problems that arise in doing so.

That is, Swift Corpses and Crazy Corpses are more likely to be angry, and although rage is not the same as explosive seeds, their roar will cause a larger area of zombies to be attracted.

This may lead to too many zombies to kill, and the rangers are in danger.

In this way, the main thing is to test the ability of the commander. Including the delineation of the preset battlefield, the formulation of the route to attract monsters, and so on.

The Commander's ability to slow down the gods and time makes it possible for him to seize those fleeting opportunities to make the stranger stray and dangerous.

The effect is like playing a soccer ball through the gaps of the opponent's many people, sometimes it is really a fraction of a second, passing by, if it is blocked, it is basically a dead end.

Under the premise that the soldiers absolutely carry out the order, the problem can only be the commander's pot, and for Zhao Wenrui, the capture of this opportunity and the planning of the route are also very challenging. But he knew that this ability would be his main means of overcoming hardships and hardships in the future, and he should not escape it, but practice it as soon as possible, even if it is worth risking the lives of some soldiers for this......

However, in the place of Hidden Gold Valley, there is no opportunity to show him too many extreme operations of this kind. The lack of special funerals such as flying demons is one reason, and the other reason is that even ordinary zombies are limited in number, and the ratio of rapid zombies and mad corpses is not high.

This is actually the common feature of 'dead point', this area is the low-active low-end of zombies, lack of circulation, and lack of strong zombie domination, no nest, just zombies wandering aimlessly here, and then lack of external factors, just rely on this, and gradually form a turbulent backwater pattern, this is the 'dead point'.

Trains, being cleared, these are naturally external factors that can stimulate them, so on the whole, they will instinctively move towards the stronghold.

But this attitude of movement is not resolute. Maybe it's hot today, and there are a lot of people sweating like rain in the stronghold, so that these zombies smell some 'human smell' from afar, so they will take two steps in this direction unhurriedly, but a light rain or wind may interrupt their train of thought, and they will become wandering again.

Of course, there is also the kind of tendon that moves in the direction of the stronghold without hesitation, which is the most important need for vigilance and prevention, among which the tendon in the faster swift corpse and the mad corpse is the most dangerous, because once they appear, the time left for the human side to react is often very limited, and a ranger has no way to shoot it in front of his face.

Zhao Wenrui calculated, if a swift corpse was discovered by the ranger early and fired at the farthest attack distance, then it was almost necessary to shoot with two claws scratched by the swift corpse before it could be killed.

Only after becoming a veteran can you kill it on the way to the rapid corpse or even the mad corpse charge.

In other words, two swift corpses come to fish, and a patrolling ranger is likely to be killed if he has a hard top, and even if he can win, it will take a lot of time to recover afterwards.

And without the assistance and command of his god's perspective, the rangers may be able to play tricks in circles, not to mention kite tactics.

You must know that the core needs of zombie attack are hunting and eating, so it is a priority to ensure hunting, rather than finding a strong opponent to compete.

This means that once an ordinary person, or even an ordinary facility, is exposed to its field of vision, or within a certain range, it will give priority to attacking the facility or the ordinary person, which leads to the location of the patrol, as well as the details of the implementation of the kite tactic, are all said. If you don't do it well, it will be self-defeating.

But there are always more solutions than problems.

Zhao Wenrui quickly came up with a way that was not a solution, that is, to collect the sweatshirts of the engineers, and then use oilcloths to include them.

As soon as necessary, the tarpaulin was removed, and before this pack of sweatshirts, there must be a simple wooden fence.

This pack of Han clothes can cooperate with the soldiers who do not have the ability to 'smell to pull hatred' and have one more means to pull hatred. Zombies with low IQs don't have much of a concept of going around the target, as long as they can see the dynamic target and confirm the smell, they will choose to destroy everything that stands in their way and take the so-called shortest route.

In this way, before the wooden fence is destroyed, the soldiers can safely stand on the stake output.

Of course, this trick can only deal with sporadic fishing, if there are more than 10 people, and the soldiers are under the city and there is no space for attack, the zombies may bypass the wooden fence.

At the same time, in terms of numbers, the destructive power of zombies has also increased greatly, and the wooden fence can't hold up a few times.

But even so, Zhao Wenrui's strategy is still too much beyond Jonathan's imagination.

In a huge stronghold, the guards actually meowed in single digits, almost one or two soldiers, guarding one direction. Later, even worse, the entire stronghold sent one or two soldiers to patrol in key directions, and the rest actually took the initiative to attack and eliminate zombies!

My goodness, this stronghold is simply a delicious meal with thin skin and big filling, and a few random zombies can complete the snowball and completely turn it upside down, which is also too suspenseful.

What especially displeased Jonathan was Zhao Wenrui's attitude towards the forest area.

Of course, the mountains are high and dense, and the boulders are craggy, which effectively plays a barrier role. It shouldn't be considered completely risk-free.

Looking at the forest area that seems to be extremely deep and secluded even in the daytime, there is no fear and precaution of the unknown and uncertainty.

Of course there is, but it's still the same sentence, since you are down, you have to believe the referee.

Zhao Wenrui once believed that the purpose of the Vientiane Gate system was not to torture and kill reincarnators in various perverted ways.

And now Zhao Wenrui believes that the purpose of the existence of the Shine System is not to trap him.

This system, which has the skin of steampunk and is quite high-tech at the core, he feels that it is trustworthy, more reliable than his cheap relatives in this world.

Since the concept given by the shining system is that some directions are isolated barrier states, it means that zombies will definitely not come in from there, and if there is a change, the system will inevitably have a hint.

Therefore, although the dense forest in the south is deep and dangerous, Zhao Wenrui believes that there is no problem over there. Didn't even go to the survey himself.

Recently, he has been a little busy, busy commanding a limited number of soldiers, clearing out the zombies around him, and building a stable rear.

In fact, not only the dense forests in the south, but also the rivers in the east are also a problem.

Although the river is turbulent and the zombies can't swim, after all, it is less than 50 meters wide, what if the zombies are seduced by the increasingly strong human smell here, what if the desperate swimming is successful?

But by default, the river is isolated, so it means that there is no eventuality.

Well, take it for granted.

Also, the hunter's hut, the fishing hut.

This is all attached to the shine system, which can be said to be an important means to obtain stable food production in the early stage.

But in fact, the people of the Obonin Kingdom do not have the habit of eating wild animals, and they are afraid of infection.

On the east bank of the river, in particular, the land has been corroded by viruses, giving it a sickly floating soil character, and when the sun is at its strongest, it glows like oil paint, which is easily reminiscent of chemical waste and other substances.

With such a riverbank, are you sure that the creatures in the river are edible?

But if the shine system says it's fine, then there's nothing wrong.

What's even more amazing is that whether it is a hunter's hut or a fishing hut, its food output is constant, you don't care if the hunter's hut is raising rats and rats, don't care if the fishing hut is raising loaches, anyway, when the settlement is made, qualified meat can appear.

And it is semi-frozen, so a lump, I can't tell what kind of meat it is, the taste is like chicken, but the fat content is slightly higher, it is more delicious, whether it is frying, roasting and frying, there is no problem, even the picky Jonathan said that it was good, and when asked, Zhao Wenrui could only be deduced that it was a new technology.

There are so many new technologies that even Tesla's wireless power transfer system has become plausible. Although it may not seem like a big difference, the kernel has changed a lot.

It can be said that the new sparkle system is completely built within the power transmission range built with Tesla's power towers, and if you leave this range, even a wooden wall that does not need electricity cannot be built.

This is the price, the price of being tied down by the system and not being able to create freely.

But this price is bearable for Zhao Wenrui, because it has returned extremely high work efficiency, and absolutely reliable quality creations, not to mention the people who follow orders and fulfill their duties.

Although he is a general, there are not many people who are under the guidance and management of Kleven Zhao. The core is a hundred people in the command center, who occupy all important positions, including the backbone of the engineering corps specializing in construction.

The second level is the skilled workers, who correspond to the veterans and are excellent construction talents, and the original officers and soldiers have basically been transformed into skilled workers.

Skilled workers were also the main force that made up the available population, and the soldiers were selected from this class and then trained.

Another class, which can be called a new ding, an assistant, and an apprentice, is the role it plays anyway, and it has nothing to do with age, mainly depending on the mastery of relevant technologies, and secondarily on mentality and will. As the population of the stronghold increased, it was not without apprentices in their forties and fifties.

Finally, there are the freedmen, who represent the average of the four people in each camp, the two who cannot be counted as the disposable population, who are equivalent to non-laborers, who can be women and children, or old people, who fill all the gaps that the shining system cannot provide, so that the stronghold forms a whole small society.

This is a vulnerable group that has a hard time making its voice heard.

As the saying goes, the breadwinner of the family is the hardest-spoken, and in the context of the head of the family being controlled by the shining system, most of the time these people just complain uselessly, and then go against the grain.

In fact, apart from some fears, for most of them, life is better now than in the past.

What people usually ask for is nothing more than food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

Clothes, for the people of this era, clothes are luxury.

A hundred years have degraded most of the cotton and wool fiber clothing in those towns, and attacking the zombie-ridden towns is definitely a matter worth repeatedly considering the pros and cons, and it is difficult to make the trip.

For the Aubonin Kingdom, land is the most valuable, and there is not enough land to grow cash crops such as cotton.

Therefore, the source of people's clothing is nothing more than the fiber of wild plants and the fur of wild animals.

Many people wear so-called blended fabrics that feel much worse than the sack sheets of the past.

Against this backdrop, the work clothes provided by the base are as valuable as wedding dresses.

Food, in the Obonin Kingdom, the people in the slums are basically struggling to live, eating a kind of paste to survive, often not seeing much oil all year round, and there is not enough food for people to eat, so naturally there is no surplus to raise livestock wantonly.

The limited number of pigs, cows, sheep, etc., are not eaten by the poor.

So how many poor people are in Aubonin? A little more than a third of the total population, less than 40 percent in percentage.

And in the Tibetan Gold Valley stronghold, people can eat whole wheat bread, although the bran is a little more, but it is still a lot more than the past diet bars, more rare is to have meat, two large pieces a day, a piece of animal meat, a piece of fish meat, although the source of this synthetic meat is suspicious, but one did not eat the dead, the other did not make people become zombies, and even the taste is very good, so what else to ask for?

Living, the people who came to the Golden Valley, when they were in the city of Obonin, many of them had no place to stand on the bottom, there was no tile to cover their bodies, and the places where they lived were rented and needed to be paid, and here, the homestead was allocated to them, that was their home, a place to settle down, and although it was a tent now, it could be turned into a house in the future.

And even if it's a tent, it's more comfortable than what they've used to live in.

In fact, this is also a place that Jonathan is puzzled about. Because the tarpaulin used in the tent is not cheap in Obonin, and it is even more expensive than mud and stone bricks.

This is because Obonin is not short of clay and coal, which means that he can burn paper bricks, but cotton and linen are very good, and it is normal for tarpaulin to be expensive.

And Zhao Wenrui ordered people to build these tents, the tarpaulin used is still exceptionally good, uniform and dense, and it is also brushed with a rubber layer to prevent wind and rain.

Jonathan knocked on the side and asked about the origin of these tarpaulins, Zhao Wenrui refused to say more, but vaguely revealed that it seemed to be related to external forces.

Jonathan couldn't help but think about it.

"Dwarves, or new humans, it should be impossible for the greenskins, the greenskins are very crude, and the Titans are not very likely, they are hostile to all races except themselves......"

In any case, even living in a tent is a treat for many of the Obonins who have migrated.

Only in this last line, General Zhao established a hierarchical system and strictly divided the area of activity, and the civilians at the lowest level had a particularly limited range of activities.

Most people can still understand and understand this, and the human settlement of the Tibetan Gold Valley is still in the initial stage, so it is natural to be careful.

Despite the constraints of the living area, the natural scenery of the living area is still wonderful and pleasant.

Therefore, the people of the Tibetan Gold Valley are generally satisfied.

Especially since the arrival of General Craven Zhao, there has not been a single case of bad news of death in battle, and people have not even seen zombies, and people know that this is not because there are no zombies here, but because General Zhao is capable and has the right strategy......

Overall, in less than a week, Zhao Wenrui has won the basic trust of the people of the Tibetan Golden Valley.

At this time, his farming was generally barely keeping up with the pace of the plan, and the original plan that should have been completed at this stage was basically completed.

First of all, on the west side of the Sheep Intestine Valley Road, the zombies have been cleared.

Jonathan suggested that a pass be established at the end of the valley road.

But after thinking twice, Zhao Wenrui still gave up.

The amount of work involved in establishing a pass is not small, and it will seriously drag down other constructions.

In addition, he didn't want to provoke the invasion of zombies outside the western valley by this step.

So in the end, it remained a stagnant pool, at least from the outside, and if the occasional wandering zombie entered the canyon, it would be strangled by the two rangers stationed there.

So, how much power was put into it in the end?

Two Ranger equals 240g + 2 wood + 2 usable population, and one wooden watchtower, 120g + 10 timber. A wooden gate with a steam mechanism that opens on its own when the train passes, 60 gold + 10 wood + 4 metal parts and equipment.

If you don't count Tesla Tower, that's so much.

With this little resource, a direction was settled, and the west gate of the entire Tibetan Gold Valley was closed, and Jonathan said cow when he saw it.

In the early morning of the fourth day, the rangers completed the clearing of the area of the Tibetan Gold Valley, especially the valley in the valley.

The exact location of the valley is on the other side of the mountain where the mine is located, but the entrance is not here in the mine, but about 2 kilometers north along the foothills.

There, there is a pocket-shaped area, to the west, there are steep mountains, and to the east, there is the foothills of the mines, and in this valley, there are many zombies.

After the cleanup, according to the analysis of the remaining artefacts, it was once a refuge for the survivors.

It is likely that it survived a failed pioneer mission in the past 20 years, but eventually fell due to a shortage of goods. The Sentinels even have access to a number of resources that can be recognized by the Shine System here, including food. Zhao Wenrui couldn't even think of what kind of food could be stored for years with simple utensils and craftsmanship, and it could still be eaten and nutritious.

It doesn't matter, anyway, the shining system recognizes it, which is a great thing, and he backhanded used these resources to add two more rangers, a Tesla Tower and three camp tents, which is equivalent to earning back the investment on the side of the Sheep Gut Valley Road in advance.

Although the terrain of this valley is good, it is not suitable for building farms or setting up facilities such as windmills and generators, and Zhao Wenrui eventually established 'Erben' here.

As one of the core facilities, the main role of the second book is to unlock a series of related technologies, such as farms and wooden houses, which are very valuable.

However, key technologies, such as the Market, Sniper, Ballista, etc., need to be unlocked in the tech tree with tech points.

Technology points can only be obtained after completing the quest or exploring a quest dungeon, so Zhao Wenrui can only watch it for now.

But Erben still has its basic value, it is itself a large factory with light rail, there are cranes, with it, it can improve the overall production efficiency, allow the manufacture of prefabricated parts, and make the construction of facilities faster.

Two books plus some simple facilities, and then the valley mouth, is a good barrier, even if the Tibetan Gold Valley falls, here can be held for two or three more days, maybe you can wait for reinforcements.

Of course, Zhao Wenrui didn't focus on building such a shelter in the Golden Valley, he was now racing against time, racing against the corpse tide that would come in 10 days.
