Chapter 365: Three-way Interview
When the municipal base was evacuated to Xuanwu Lake Island, it was too hasty, and it only had time to transfer important materials such as food, weapons and equipment, and clothing and bedding were not the key materials, so naturally they were not prepared.
Just relying on a single coat, it is almost a fool's dream to survive the winter, not to mention that there are fewer buildings on Liangzhou Island than on other islands, and there is no way to shelter from the wind and rain, and many people can only live in the open air.
"It's okay Dad, if the plan goes well, it won't be long before everyone on the island can be picked up, and then there is no need to worry about this." Zhao Nina sat on the side and comforted, while taking off her coat and putting it on her father.
"No, your dad and I are very strong and not afraid of freezing." Zhao Qingze refused with a smile: "It's you, like your mother, you have been afraid of the cold since you were a child, and you have to turn on the air conditioner 24 hours a day at home in winter, wasting electricity." ”
Zhao Nina smiled, but seemed to think of something, her eyes were slightly dim, "I miss my mother a little." ”
Shortly before the outbreak of the zombie virus, Zhao Nina's mother went abroad to attend an international conference on behalf of multinational companies.
Now that the virus has broken out and the end of the world has come for several months, it is difficult to judge Zhao Nina's mother.
Shen Bai sat aside, watching Zhao Nina's mother and daughter miss their relatives, but his attention was attracted by the temperature problem that Zhao Qingze said earlier.
"Zhao Shuji, you just said that in the past few days, the temperature on the island will drop to zero degrees at night?"
Shen Bai frowned slightly, and confirmed with Zhao Qingze again.
"There are bonfires lit on the island at night, and the temperature is not so low, but in the area near the lake, the temperature is really close to freezing."
Zhao Qingze was slightly stunned, and then said.
"Something is wrong......"
Shen Bai and Zhao Nina came from Penglai City, Dongshan Province, which has a temperate monsoon climate with four distinct seasons, and the temperature can even drop below minus 20 degrees Celsius in the coldest part of winter.
The city of Nanxi is located in the south. Tropical monsoon climate. During the coldest time of the year, the temperature only hovers around freezing.
It's only the end of November, and there is still nearly a month before the winter solstice, but the temperature in the south is close to freezing. These days, Shen Bai is just like that at the Penglai City Gold Mine Base where they are located.
The first winter of the end of the world is very likely to usher in an extremely cruel winter.
Of course, Shen Bai was not worried about the cold winter in the future, his base had sound facilities, and the power plant was enough to provide heat supply, but what he was really worried about was the island in the middle of this Xuanwu Lake.
"Battalion Commander Jiang, when your soldiers were patrolling the lake in the past few days, did they find any freezing on the lake?"
Shen Bai immediately asked Camp Commander Jiang again.
"Is it icing?"
Camp Commander Jiang thought for a while, and then replied: "Yes, there is, but a thin layer of ice forms along the edge of the island, and it dissipates quickly after dawn, why do you ask this?" ”
As soon as the words were spoken, several people present thought of something, and their faces changed slightly.
Zhao Qingze, Zhao Nina, and Camp Commander Jiang themselves are all smart people, and Shen Bai is so concerned about the temperature and icing problems, which also makes several people immediately think of the reason.
Now the people on the island can survive the siege of the corpses, relying on the water of Xuanwu Lake, once the lake is frozen, the zombies can step on the ice and land directly on the island. At that time, the island in the middle of the lake, which is impregnable in the lake, has become a flat land without any shelter in all directions.
"Shen Bai, are you worried about the lake freezing? It's unlikely, right? Zhao Nina shook her head and said: "Here in Nanxi City, the temperature is not low all year round, even in the coldest time, Xuanwu Lake has not been completely frozen, at most a thin layer of ice has formed, and it can't bear the heavy objects at all." ”
"I hope so." Shen Bai sighed, "It's just that it's not yet December, and the temperature can plummet to about zero degrees at night, and when we came today, the weather was not very good, and it felt like it would rain in the near future...... If it's just raining, it's fine, but if it's snowing at this temperature......"
Shen Bai's sigh made several people a little speechless, he was not alarmist, this is the end of the world, what else is impossible? In particular, this is a matter related to the survival of the entire island in the middle of the lake, and there is no room for sloppiness.
"Shen Bai, it's okay if you have any arrangements on your side, if we can negotiate a suitable cooperation plan with Lu Mingyuan and them tomorrow and resolve the conflict peacefully, I hope to deal with it in a way that avoids fighting." Zhao Qingze said solemnly to Shen Bai: "For the sake of the thousands of survivors on the island, I hope you can understand. ”
Shen Bai nodded, "I understand, but this is only based on the fact that the other party will behave and not play tricks, if someone wants to do something, then they can't blame me." ”
If it weren't for Zhao Nina and Zhao Qingze, this bit of on Xuanwu Lake Island had nothing to do with Shen Bai, and he didn't care about the life or death of the people on the island.
Now his behavior is a bit nosy, and it is completely inconsistent with his previous standards, but these people around Zhao Qingze are also affectionate and righteous, especially the more than 1,000 survivors, who were not tempted by the better treatment of the superpowers, and always followed Zhao Qingze.
This made Shen Bai a little bit of an idea of saving them, and taking them back to their own territory, and integrating them into the Fanwai troops, if Battalion Commander Jiang and his soldiers also joined, the combat effectiveness of the Fanwai troops would inevitably be qualitatively improved.
The next day, as the sky gradually brightened, the long-lost sun still did not shine on the earth, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, making the whole sky look gloomy, and a cold wind blowing would make people shiver.
In one of the few buildings on Liangzhou Island, Shen Bai, Shen Qingze, Lu Mingyuan, and a male superpowered person in his early 30s sat together.
"Cao Liang is the leader of the other three islands, and he is also the strongest superpower."
Shen Qingze introduced Cao Liang's identity to Shen Bai.
The latter's gaze did not look at Shen Bai, but always stayed on Alice, who was standing quietly not far behind Shen Bai, and his eyes did not hide his naked possessiveness.
A hint of coldness flashed in Shen Bai's eyes.
It can be seen that he suddenly has superpowers, and he has mastered three islands, which is on an equal footing with the secretary of the mayor and municipal party committee who was once present, which makes Cao Liang, who was once just an ordinary person, extremely inflated.
It's a pity that he didn't know that there were more superpowers who died in Alice's hands than he had ever seen, and he didn't know that so far none of the superpowers who were hostile to Shen Bai had survived.
