Chapter 236: Desolate Penglai City
Without the threat of a wave of corpses, some are back on track.
The next morning, the burning of the corpses overnight gave the air a scorching smell, but it did not affect the mining work of the armored vehicles.
The soldiers and ordinary survivors suspended mining in the lower mining area and began to clean up the perimeter of the base.
Although the bodies of most of the zombies have been cleaned up after incineration, the scene outside the base is still chilling to watch after dawn.
There were stumps and severed arms everywhere, and jet-black blood almost whitewashed the ground and walls around the base.
And more than that, there are countless bullet holes left in the ground.
The asphalt and cement pavement is full of potholes and bullet holes, which is shocking to see from a distance.
The siege of 100,000 corpses, if it is changed to ancient times, can be called a large-scale battle.
It took days for soldiers and ordinary survivors to dispose of the remnants of the war, and even then, everyone who passed through the area would find obvious traces that could not be completely erased after the battle.
Three days later, the base resumed normal operations.
Previously, after Ida Wang's statistics on the materials, Shen Bai added more than 500 soldiers, because the food stored in the base is only enough for 1,000 people to consume for four months, so it is still the old way, and if you can save it, you can save it.
This time, the soldiers were mainly replenished by mercenaries, because there were a large number of vehicles that needed to be repaired, and there was also the idea of Shen Bai building a mine......
……
At noon, the clouds were thick, making the sky gloomy and stormy.
It's not a downtown area, and the resident population is not large, so the number of zombies is small.
In the middle of the road, a badly decomposed zombie wandered along the road.
Suddenly, the road shook faintly, and the movement of the engine attracted the attention of the zombies.
It looked up in the direction from which the sound had come from, but the next moment, its head exploded.
"Bang!" Only then was the roar of large-caliber sniper rifle fire belated.
Thousands of meters away, sitting in the car, Shen Bai, holding a telescope, took in the scene and couldn't help but bow slightly.
"Commander, ahead is the Xincheng Gold Mine."
In Shen Bai's consciousness, Ida Wang's voice came.
Xincheng Gold Mine is also a gold mining enterprise located in Penglai City, and the annual output of gold mines is about two-thirds of that of Zhangjia Gold Mine.
What's more, the location of the Xincheng Gold Mine is only about 7 kilometers away from the Zhangjia Gold Mine, which can be reached in 10 minutes by car, which is the closest compared to several other gold mines around Penglai City.
Shen Bai has been inspecting this position for a long time.
If you want to compare the output, the annual output of the Sanshan Island Gold Mine, located on the shore of Penglai Bay in the north of Penglai City, is the highest, even higher than the Zhangjia Gold Mine, but first of all, the Sanshan Island Gold Mine is located near the township, and the permanent population on the streets of Sanshan Island is nearly 100,000, which is far less remote and sparsely populated than the location of the Zhangjia Gold Mine.
If we take a long-term view, if we can own Zhangjia Gold Mine and Xincheng Gold Mine at the same time, the gold mine output will definitely be far better than that of Sanshan Island Gold Mine.
Moreover, compared with the Zhangjia Gold Mine and the Xincheng Gold Mine, which are less than 10 kilometers away, the Sanshan Island Gold Mine is nearly 30 kilometers away from both.
……
"Clean up the remnants of zombies around and explore the entire gold mine."
With Shen Bai's order, dozens of off-road vehicles drove out from the rear, and a large number of soldiers got out of the cars one after another, holding guns and heading towards the Xincheng gold mining area.
After a while, scattered gunshots rang out.
The layout around Xincheng Gold Mine is similar to that of Zhangjia Gold Mine, in order to improve mining efficiency, corresponding family buildings, staff hospitals, office buildings and some essential shops have been established around the gold mining area.
In about half an hour, the soldiers swept away all the remaining zombies in the surrounding area.
With 500 soldiers, the speed of cleaning up zombies has skyrocketed.
"Commander, the surrounding area has been completely cleared and has been determined to be absolutely safe."
As the soldier reported, Shen Bai nodded slightly, and then said, "Then let's get to work." ”
After a few moments, all the mercenaries rushed in, and the ground began to tremble slightly, and the tremors grew louder and louder.
Then many of the buildings changed, and the brick-by-brick walls gradually appeared.
This is simply too sci-fi, and Shen Bai was dumbfounded.
In the previous wave of 100,000 corpses, Shen Bai used 100,000 survival points to draw lottery, in addition to soldiers, he also drew some other props, such as this construction acceleration card, which originally took several months to build, but under the effect of this card, it was all completed in less than half an hour.
The choice to build a base here also considered the division of troops to garrison.
After all, it is not far from Zhangjia Mine, and you can provide timely support when necessary.
After the construction of the base was completed, Shen Bai was not polite, and summoned more than a hundred mercenaries again, asking them to work in the mine, and in the future, as long as he came to collect the mine once a regular time and exchanged it for survival points.
……
Since the zombie siege incident, for half a month, Shen Bai has led soldiers to Penglai City every day to shoot zombies and sweep up the city's supplies.
Since the soldier's ammunition is automatically refreshed every day, Shen Bai doesn't have to care about anything at all, but whenever he sees a zombie, the gun will rain out mercilessly.
There is no way, now there is an additional base, and more than a hundred mouths have been added to eat, and food and clothing are the first problems to be solved at present.
After half a month, the effect is remarkable, and half of the materials in Penglai City have been emptied by Shen Bai.
The half-month-long zombie clearance made Shen Bai slaughter almost all the zombies in the urban area of Penglai City, and now it takes a lot of effort to find a zombie in the urban area.
In the zombie-infested apocalypse, this is simply incredible.
The only regret is that although there are few zombies left in the city, there are almost no survivors.
Previously, the G-type zombies attracted a tide of 100,000 corpses and swept the entire city, which can be described as digging three feet into the ground.
Originally, because of the strange changes in the corpse groups in the city, many survivors already felt bad and left early, and there were not many survivors left, and they were almost completely wiped out by this wave of sweeping.
When the city became empty, it became even more desolate.
At this moment, on the empty street, there are five cars driving slowly on the road.
The five cars were two sedans, two off-road vehicles and a pickup truck, and the dirty paint and various dents on the bodies showed that the road must have been quite difficult.
"Is this Penglai City? Why does it look so deserted? ”
The car slowly stopped on the street on the outskirts of the city, and a man got out of the car and looked out at the city in the distance.
"Yes, it's strange, there are no zombies on this road, why can't you even see an abandoned vehicle? It's like someone has deliberately cleaned it? ”
"Do you want to go into the city and have a look?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little silent.
It's easy to see what the downtown area means to survivors.
