Chapter 45: The Base
The second principle is to first secure the inside, and then connect with the outside.
"First settled" refers to settling the survivors who are currently gathered together, and at the same time having a good system to manage them. For this problem, Tian Guangye put forward a specific plan.
After counting, a total of 12,873 people have survived, including more than 60 seriously injured, all of whom were injured during the day's fight with wild beasts.
In other words, in the process of escaping Qianzhi Mountain, more than 1,000 people fell behind and died, and it is conceivable that the main ones who fell behind were the seriously injured. Most of those who were able to escape were strong and strong, and at most suffered only a few minor injuries.
Tian Guangye suggested that in view of the changes in the combat targets and the combat environment, the original 10-person group should be changed to a group of 15 people, so that the role of group members in covering and cooperating with each other can be better brought into play and the group's ability to protect itself can be enhanced. In the future, all outings will be carried out in small groups to fully ensure local combat superiority.
A group of fifteen people, a small team of ten is a small team, and a team of ten is a group. All personnel were organized into eight full-fledged regiments, the head of which continued to be the previous regimental commander, and the rest were assigned to the organs of the alliance command.
The headquarters of the alliance shall have a chairman and a political commissar, with Xu Shuqing and Cao Huazhang serving as the positions respectively, and shall be divided into the General Staff Department, the General Logistics Department, and the General Operations Department.
Jiang Mantian served as chief of the General Staff and was responsible for establishing and directly leading the physical and mechanical research group, the biological research group, the biological and chemical weapons team, and the medical assistance team.
Tian Guangye served as the director of the general logistics department, responsible for equipment distribution, resource allocation, logistics supply, production development, etc.;
Long Yuandong served as the commander-in-chief, directly commanding the five regiments, mainly teachers and students of the country;
Xu Yue served as the deputy commander-in-chief, directly commanding the two regiments mainly composed of teachers and students of Huaqing University;
Cheng Gongyuan served as deputy commander-in-chief, directly commanding a regiment composed of officers and men of the armed police and various schools.
The regimental commanders, the ministers and group leaders, the chairmen, and the political commissars are all members of the alliance command, and the standing committee members are Xu Shuqing, Cao Huazhang, Jiang Mantian, Tian Guangye, Long Yuandong, Xu Yue, and Cheng Gongyuan.
The plan proposed by Tian Guangye was carefully considered, and everyone basically had no objections, and it was only to be implemented after going down the mountain.
"Post-linkage" is, of course, to contact other people other than their group.
However, how many "other people" can be connected to is a question that needs to be explored. From the day before yesterday to the present, great disasters have been one after another, and the number of people who have been able to survive under such dangerous conditions can be said to be extremely rare and very small. Let's just say that all of you here, if it weren't for Jiang Mantian's prediction of danger, I'm afraid most of them wouldn't have had the opportunity to speak here.
Wherever the tide can be submerged, it is basically inconceivable for ordinary people to survive without any special opportunities or preparations, except for the military.
The so-called "Lianwai" is actually mainly to contact the people of the Yandu military, and then expand to the surviving humans outside the area where the tide is raging.
Xu Shuqing raised his right hand and pressed it weakly, signaling everyone to be quiet.
In fact, there are not many people talking at this time, and he presses it like this, which is a habit accumulated over the years of meetings, and it is also a way to attract attention:
"Now that the situation has developed to this point, there are some things that I will also inform you about. The escape ship under the Chengming Lake in Yiheyuan is a strategic security backup facility that our country has spent a lot of effort to build, and there are 16 of the same facilities, numbered according to the eight characters of 'heaven, earth, Xuan, Huang, Yu, Zhou, Hong, and famine'. There are two strategic ships of the "Tian" brand, numbered "Tianjia" and "Tianyi", the number below Yiheyuan is "Tianjia", and the other "Tianyi" strategic ship is in the north of Yandu, I think the main retreat place of the Yandu military should be there.
The remaining 14 strategic ships are distributed in various important places across the country, and most of them are directly controlled by the military. Since this strategic ship is very advanced, it is even equipped with a small number of light nuclear weapons, and the attack power is not trivial. Therefore, the National Security Committee is also very strict in its control over strategic ships.
In principle, the Tianjia strategic ship can only be opened by combining the keys in the hands of our ten principals, and as for whether there is any other way to open it, we have to try it to find out. ”
"Let's assume that every strategic ship in the country can save an average of 10,000 lives, adding up to 160,000. It should be possible for 160,000 people to unite and set up a number of large bases to help each other.
In addition to strategic ships, there must still be many survivors in the western and southwestern regions of China and the vast northwest region, and in my personal estimates, the total number of survivors in the country will not be less than 15 million. It's just that they're very scattered, and it's predictable that this number will decrease dramatically over time.
In addition, in the world, due to the influence of Professor Jiang's scientific research achievements, as long as a country with a little bit of strength, more or less will build its own strategic security base, so the total number of surviving human beings in the world should be more than 50 million.
Now that we have such important resources as combat readiness warehouses and strategic security ships, we certainly have the obligation to concentrate as many scattered people as possible, first, to improve everyone's chances of survival, and second, to provide a powerful guarantee for the continuation of human civilization. ”
After listening to President Xu's analysis, everyone had a general understanding of the future situation.
The night was long, and I couldn't sleep for a while, so you went back and forth on many other topics, and I don't need to repeat them one by one.
The next day, the weather was clear.
Jiang Mantian woke up early in the morning and received news from Long Yuandong: After last night's rest, more than 700 people have evolved physically, and more than 50 of them have awakened their martial spirits.
There are all kinds of martial souls, including animals, plants, and daily utensils, and as for the attributes, most of them are the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The Nine Palaces have relatively few attributes, and it is difficult to distinguish, except for Professor Huo Jinniu, who seems to have evolved spatial attributes, and Professor Dastan has become more chattering, there are no new discoveries.
When I hear the good news, my heart is naturally happy.
If this trend continues, human beings will soon be able to complete their first evolution as a whole, and the overall combat effectiveness will increase exponentially, and the ability to resist risks will of course also increase.
Jiang Mantian climbed the high platform and looked up, but seeing the sparkling waves at the foot of the mountain, it was obvious that the tide had not yet receded, so after thinking about it, he discussed with the members of the alliance command for a while, and decided to stay on the top of the mountain for two more days, and then return when the sea water completely subsided.
More than 12,000 people were cramped on the top of the mountain, idle, and remembered the matter of hunting soul beasts and obtaining soul crystals, so they joined the ranks of fighting monsters and upgrading and expanding their territory.
In two days, not only did they solve the food problem, but they also obtained a large number of soul crystals, which provided support for promoting the evolution of more people.
Ten days later.
Two hundred meters south of the stone boat ruins of the Dragon Garden.
Long Yuandong sweated like rain, commanding 3,000 young people, digging ditches and walls, and was busy.
After the sea water invaded this place for two days, I originally thought that most of the beasts and insects would die, but who knew that after the sea receded, all kinds of animals, insects and birds, not only did not decrease, but there were signs of increase.
In order to prevent the attack of fierce beasts, everyone surrounded the station with a simple wooden stake fence, but the protection was quite limited.
For the sake of safety, and for the sake of once and for all, everyone decided to dig a large ditch with a depth of two meters and a width of two meters around the station, and the excavated earth and stone were two meters away from the ditch, and a wall three meters high and two meters thick was built.
This defensive structure is carefully calculated.
The three-metre-high fence is large enough to keep most of the small animals out, while the large animals that can jump over the three-metre-high wall must take off two to three metres back, and the take-off point happens to be in the deep ditch. Good things were waiting in the ditch, wooden thorns, bone knives, sharp stones, rusty iron rods, etc., and quicklime, sulfur, and coke were buried to prevent reptiles......
Anyway, if you can get something from local materials and have a certain protective effect, no one will be stingy with an insurance for yourself.
However, digging a trench and wall is not a small project, and without the right tools, the progress is miserable.
Regardless of survival, development, and struggle, it is absolutely impossible to do without iron tools, and with iron tools, the efficiency of doing anything can be increased several times or even dozens of times.
Tian Guangye organized a hundred teams and scattered them to find pots and pans, gas stoves, rebar, iron doors, anti-theft windows, etc. in the ruins of the building. Some of the iron tools found can be used directly, and some are stored first, and then they will be considered when there is an iron-making furnace later.
With the city walls, you can't always fall asleep in the open air.
For the sake of the convenience of reproduction, the house must be built.
After careful planning, Xu Yue led 3,000 people to cut down and work quickly, preparing to build the first batch of 100 collective rooms, 200 husband and wife rooms, and a large conference hall in the base.
Again, there is a severe shortage of tools and materials.
However, people cannot be suffocated by urine, and it is necessary to adapt to local conditions and simplify because of ugliness. Half of the ground is dug underground, half is built on the ground, half earth and half wood, half kiln and half house of the affordable housing, announced the completion. Anyway, it's always okay to have a good night's sleep.
Tian Guangye thought more thoughtfully and long-term, led more than 500 people to dig aqueducts and sewage ditches, and made a number of settings and regulations for garbage disposal and sanitation and safety.
Although there is food and shelter in the base, soul crystals and fresh meat and vegetables are scarce, and Cheng Gongyuan and He vigorously led a thousand well-equipped warriors to go out hunting.
Those mutated animals are very strange, when you don't look for them, they are everywhere, and if you really look for them, you can't find them.
At first, everyone could only barely catch a small number of fish in Lihai, but then they walked farther and farther, and the more they leaned towards the Qianzhishan Forest Park, the more small animals there were, and the more abundant the harvest became.
Several groups under Jiang Mantian also carried out intense research work.
In addition to repairing various damaged electrical appliances, including electric lights, horns, computers, automobiles, and radio transceivers, Hawkingniu is in charge of the physics and mechanical research team, and he also has to find ways to make steel, tools and weapons.
Attempts to liaise with the outside world are also underway, but so far there has been no progress. The Yandu military seemed to have disappeared, without the slightest news.
The biological research team supervised by Lin Xiaoqing mainly studies the evolution of animals and plants under the new magnetic field space, which plants can be eaten, which plants cannot be eaten, which animals can be raised, which animals can't, what kind of animals, and what kind of direction they generally evolve, etc., and in this regard, they have achieved certain results and experience.
The biochemical research team composed of a chemistry professor and a group of biologists, after hard work, ceremoniously launched the first batch of biochemical weapons: powerful mosquito repellent tablets, non-toxic and non-additive, can effectively repel mosquitoes, insects, cockroaches, poisonous snakes, economical and practical, easy to carry, popular throughout the base.
He Tingting and dozens of doctors and nurses formed a medical treatment team that actively tackled key problems, and not only took comprehensive care of more than 100 mild and serious wounded under very simple conditions, but also equipped them with a variety of first-aid and physical evolutionary medicines, which made great contributions.
Xu Shuqing led 300 members of the team to Yiheyuan to find the entrance of the strategic security ship, but unexpectedly, after the tide, the sediment accumulated, and the vegetation grew wildly, the jungle was luxuriant, and the direction was difficult to distinguish.
