Chapter 605: Siberian Difficulties
Just when the headquarters was struggling with food and oil, the Powers Administration in the Siberian Plain was at a loss, apparently helpless for the current predicament, where they were located was the city of Tyumen, and the oil fields here were also the famous Tyumen oil fields, so to speak, this is the largest city east of the Ural River, heavy industry is also OK, and there are many banks in the city.
Xiao Sheng and others have been coming to Tyumen for more than a year, they came with a mission, they must pass the oil pipeline, originally thought that at most it was to kill a zombie, and if the zombies were solved, the pipeline would be opened, and when the time came, everyone who completed the task was still a famous hero in the world.
Originally, the oil imported by China from the country of Goose was extracted and transported from the vicinity of Oha, and this place originally belonged to China in the Qing Dynasty, but now that the end is coming, there are too many zombies and mutant beasts on Sakhalin Island, and it is in the Far East, and the country of Goose cannot take care of it, so after two years, there are basically no living people on the island, and no manpower means that it is impossible to extract oil, so the Abnormal Energy Administration can only come to Tyumen City, although it is far away, it is a lot farther than the distance from Karamay to Yanjing, But pipelines have been built here before, and there is no shortage of people around.
Therefore, as long as the crisis in Tyumen can be solved, then oil will be continuously transported to the northeast, and the purpose of transporting oil will be completed by borrowing the pipeline of the goose country, and as for the funds that need to be paid, it is a problem for the headquarters, whether it is purchased with gold and silver, or in exchange for grain, there is no problem.
As a result, after Xiao Sheng, the deputy captain, came to Tyumen with more than 20 abilities, he found that all the zombies of Tyumen had been killed, and Siberia was already vast and sparsely populated, so even in the big city of Tyumen, there were only 500,000 people, which was the number of people in ten ordinary towns in China.
500,000 zombies, under heavy firepower, were quickly wiped out.
However, the difficulties have only just begun, for the vast and sparsely populated Tyumen, the zombies are too small to pose a threat, and the most serious problem in Tyumen is the lack of food!
Originally, in the Siberian Plain, such a suitable place for growing crops, starvation is generally unimaginable, especially here has long been mechanized operations, large agricultural machinery sowing, pesticide sprinkling, harvesting, processing, labor costs have been infinitely reduced, although only one crop can be planted a year, but there are many plains, and there will be no shortage of food.
But what people didn't expect was that there was also a shortage of food in Tyumen, there were only 50,000 people in the city, not many people, but a large part of these people were workers, it was enough to extract oil, and the city wall was built four or five meters high, which could resist ordinary mutant beasts, but the lack of food had to go out to find food.
If there is a shortage of food, there will be a shortage of food, anyway, what the Abilities Authority needs is oil, as long as it can start digging oil again, it will be enough!
However, the process of oil mining is not smooth, in the vicinity of Tyumen are all plains, except for farmland is forest, Siberia's forest cover is the first in the world, with forests, there is space for mutant beasts to live, and most of the things these mutant beasts eat come from humans.
In Siberia, there are a lot of brown bears, and the Internet is always ridiculing Maozi's combat effectiveness and being able to subdue brown bears with his bare hands, but that's basically a joke, if you really believe it, then it's brainless, you must know that there are humans attacked by brown bears every year and make the news.
Brown bears are wild animals that often go to the garbage dump to find food, but in winter, there is a lack of food in the forest, so they can only look for food from the garbage dump of the population, so as not to starve to death.
As a result, after there are more mutant beasts in the forest, the food will be even more unable to support the consumption of animals, and now not only brown bears dare to go out of the forest to find food, wolves and badgers have also come out, and the mutated animal individuals have increased a lot.
Although wolves are recognized as carnivores, this is not pure meat-eating, a species wants to live, it will always adapt to the environment, what can be eaten in the environment, animals will eat, so whether it is wild boars or wolves, all burrow into the farmland and start to spoil crops.
Before the corn is ripe, it will be broken off and eaten by brown bears, and wild boars are desperate to burrow into the sweet potato fields to arch the soil, a wild boar can spoil several acres of fields, and the city of Tyumen in order to prevent the crops from being eaten, so they sent people to guard the farmland, as a result, the cunning mutant beasts learned to strike at the west, and after making a noise in the east, a large army gnawed crops on the west farmland.
Miners also had to eat, and if they didn't dig for oil, they wouldn't die, but if they didn't eat, they would starve, so the plan to dig for oil in Tyumen was put on hold for the time being.
Xiao Sheng took the people from the Ability Administration Bureau to go deep into the forest in order to solve the trouble, and killed the animals when they saw them, Xiao Sheng, Jin Zijue, and Zhang Zi were all fifth-order abilities, and it was not easy to kill mutant beasts?
For a time, the animals in the forests near Tyumen were all extinct, and the prey they hit could be regarded as sustaining the action for a while, and the workers finally agreed to start work, but when they went to the mine, they found that all the caves around the original mine had been dug out by mutated marmots, and the ground was full of dense holes, which simply became a hornet's nest.
Around the mine, the soil is extremely loose, the original mine has collapsed, and if you look at the machinery, it is all rusty, but it is just over a year, and the steel machinery can no longer be used.
"No, you can only choose other places to drill wells, this area is no longer usable, you can only choose other places to drill wells, but don't worry, we may not have anything else in Tyumen, but there is absolutely enough oil!" The old miner of Tyumen replied to Xiao Sheng.
As a result, it didn't take long for winter to come, it snowed heavily, the winter in Siberia, as you can imagine, in winter the ground is all frozen soil, it is extremely difficult to drill wells, the snow on the ground can be fifty centimeters deep, at this time, the brown bears in the mountains begin to hibernate, human activities will also be reduced, can only stay in the house to keep warm, Siberia may not have anything else, the wood is absolutely enough, and the people of the Alien Administration Bureau spent the whole winter in the house.
While these people were spending the winter in Siberia, Qin Kewei gathered some of the remaining personnel of the Abnormal Energy Administration and went to the Pacific Ocean basin in the southern hemisphere to look for meteorites.
It was summer in the southern hemisphere, and if you didn't consider the dangers encountered at sea, it was still very comfortable, and Xiao Sheng and others at that time also felt that the task of salvaging meteorites was better.
I never thought that the world's fleets were losing troops at sea, not to mention the meteorite, and even the manpower was almost all folded in.
And after the end of this year's winter, Xiao Sheng immediately urged the oil company to quickly exploit oil, otherwise, the domestic oil gap will really not be filled, and now winter has arrived, all the snow outside has been spent, the ground is no longer frozen soil, and you can find a place to extract oil.
But there are only 50,000 people left in Tyumen, and there are still many women and children in such a small population, and when spring comes, they must hurry up and farm the land, if they don't farm, they will have nothing to eat!
"My dear friend, you must not force us to exploit oil, for now we can only eat rye bread, and if we miss the planting season, we will not even be able to eat rye bread!" Xiao Sheng got such an answer.
After learning this result, Xiao Sheng was going crazy, because he had been in Siberia for almost a year, and there was nothing else to do except kill mutant beasts, hoping to send the oil back to China as soon as possible, but the miners here wanted to farm, and if they continued like this, there would be problems again.
As the days passed, the planting was complete, and the engineers in the company finally began to plan where to dig the wells.
After Xiao Sheng hung up the call from the headquarters, he immediately summoned his companions from the Abnormal Energy Management Bureau and directly stated the current situation: "Brothers, sisters, the headquarters already has a great opinion on the progress of our mission, if we still can't complete the task in a short time, we may have to be withdrawn!" ”
"It's okay to retreat, I don't want to stay in this place at all, it's cold to death in winter, we have to go to the mountains to kill mutant beasts, and we have to find a way to solve the food problem of these people, this is not over, now the headquarters is urging us every day, as if we deliberately did not complete the task, they think we are very bad, right, change people!" Jin Zijue was not happy at first when he heard this, he had worked so hard to do so many things, but now there are so many opinions on Yanjing's side, it is really difficult to do.
Jin Zijue was not satisfied, and directly expressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and what he was thinking now was also what a large part of the people wanted to say.
Everyone came to Siberia with the idea of completing the task, but the headquarters didn't ask about any difficulties, but kept asking why they couldn't complete the task, and they didn't treat their side as a human being, and everyone obviously couldn't stand it.
Xiao Sheng hurriedly explained: "Isn't this the headquarters that values us?" We need to think about the headquarters, hold on a little longer, as long as we can send the oil back to China, we will be the heroes! ”
For this kind of words, Jin Zijue didn't appreciate it, but asked directly: "Isn't it said that Yanjing has formed a new organization of supernatural beings?" First set up the Heavenly Election Bureau to share our power, and then set up the Heavenly Dragon Bureau to balance us, do you think we clay legs recruited from the bottom can't do it? That's easy to do, let's go back, and then let the people from the Tianlong Bureau deal with it! ”
As soon as these words came out, they were immediately echoed by everyone, and Chai Kefu also replied directly: "Vice captain, it's not that we don't work hard, it's really that our strength is not good, we may be overestimated, didn't Ke Yiming also spread the news, saying that we were killed?" Then you don't have to be reluctant, let the people of the Tianlong Bureau figure it out! ”
Xiao Sheng heard that what his subordinates said was getting more and more outrageous, and he had already decided that this time the task was in vain, he really couldn't help it, and said, "Enough!" Now when you encounter difficulties, you can find an excuse to retreat, and this time you can avoid it, but what about next time? What about next time? Do you want to be a coward for the rest of your life? ”
Everyone looked angry, obviously disapproving of Xiao Sheng's scolding at this time, it would be really stupid to really take the completion of the task too seriously, the headquarters has begun to check and balance themselves, if you can't see it clearly, then it's really stupid.
For this question, Xiao Sheng took a deep breath and said: "If you think that we are the objects that can be replaced, then you have really given up on yourself, and now I can tell you the latest news, that is, the Tianlong Bureau has now been disabled, Shen Feng is not dead, he came back from the sea and killed more than twenty supernatural beings with people!" Therefore, in today's China, only we can complete this task! ”
After everyone heard the news, they were all stunned for a moment, obviously they didn't expect this to happen, did the Heavenly Dragon Bureau's supernatural people actually kill more than half of them? Can Shen Feng have such a strong strength?
Xiao Sheng struck while the iron was hot and continued to cheer everyone up: "So, our ability management is still the strongest organization in China at present, if we can't complete the task at this time, then no one else in China can complete this arduous task!" ”
At this time, everyone was still in shock and could not come to their senses, they had been hit several times by the news of the establishment of the Abnormal Beings organization one after another, and they all felt that they were not reused, but now, their side has become the hope of the headquarters!
