A week ago, Bai Ze was forging various equipment from mutated and evolved beast materials in his workshop, and the rest of the village was not idle.

In fact, almost no one slacks off.

The next morning, a few hours after Shangguan Bingxue had been in Bai Ze's workshop for the first and last time for seven days, a team of about seventy armed men and thirty logisticians under the leadership of Fu Xuefeng and Zhong De assembled. Begin to march south.

Although the road from the village to the barracks has been cleared after some effort, it is necessary to open the road to the south to reach the Baiquan camp, so there is still an effort. It is estimated that it will take no less than three days and a maximum of five days to arrive.

It was a task that took a long time to complete, so they carried many rations with them. After all, you can't go back to the village often, and the fuel consumption is also very huge.

At the same time, a team of ten people set off in different directions, looking for smaller villages. Every time a survivor is found, they are rescued and taken to the starting point village. Finding food rations is also something to do at the same time. The soldiers of these groups were excited every time they found supplies, as the leaders promised to give additional rewards if the number of supplies exceeded a certain threshold.

In addition, Shangguan Bingxue also instructed several mechanical professionals to start replacing the car body with mutated animal materials. It's not so much about replacing it as it is about reinforcing the body.

She even ordered the wheels to be replaced with rubber-coated animal bones.

Everyone was confused by this order. After all, these vehicles are hardened enough to withstand the attacks of mutated beasts without any problems.

But what's the point of changing wheels?

However, no one dared to disobey her orders. Without Bai Ze, Shangguan Bingxue is undoubtedly the most powerful person and the most authoritative person. So, everyone began to grind the useful bones into rounds, cover them with rubber, and then replace the old tires.

As for Shangguan Bingxue, she also has her own ideas. This idea originated from Bai Ze's giant sword.

That greatsword definitely weighed more than a ton. If more people use the equipment of mutant evolution beasts, the conventional vehicles will definitely not be able to bear the weight. As a result, she had no choice but to anticipate and adapt to whatever might arise in the future.

...

Like the White Springs subdistrict, the village now has a satellite radio found in the barracks. These radios, unlike others, appear to be able to fight mana waves at shorter distances.

This means that starting point villages can also start issuing their own announcements stating the location, the number of survivors currently gathered, etc.

Survivors continue to arrive every day, and while perhaps not as many as the White Springs Battalion, which has been called in the name of the government, they are still able to receive an average of fifty to a hundred survivors per day; Survivors from different places, somehow managed to escape the pursuit of the beast, mainly by escaping the zombies in the village and narrowly escaping the danger.

This naturally increases the workload quite a bit, and the militia grows exponentially due to the increase in the number of weapons.

Under the guidance of Chen He and Fu Yunlong, who were scheduled to join the team, the troops began to receive military training. Although far from being comparable to a real soldier, the discipline and class unique to the army were gradually formed.

Wu Yijun, Cai Jingyi, and Shangguan Bingxue regularly lead the team to search the surrounding area for more survivors, supplies, tools, and other things that may be useful; Even clothes and cooking utensils are collected as long as they can be used.

……

Day 3.

After more than 100 people worked hard for more than three days, 70% of the area of Qidian Village has been completely fenced. Although it is not a particularly strong fence, and beasts can easily break through the defenses, the wooden fence that is about seven meters high is definitely a big obstacle for ordinary zombies.

Besides, even if a beast tried to get in, if it couldn't jump over, it would take at least a few seconds to open a hole. In life-or-death situations, time is precious.

The northern entrance to the village is one of the areas that has not yet been completely cordoned off. Because White Springs Street is to the south, priority is given to increasing defenses in the area.

Precisely because the north face is almost completely unprotected, several outposts are set up on the road leading directly to the village.

The outpost farthest from the village was guarded by twenty men, each armed with machine guns, rifles, and even grenades. In addition to these, two Type 53 heavy machine guns were placed on either side of three military jeeps.

Considering that this is the weakest part of the village, all this protection is necessary. Unless a large group of fierce beasts or first-order fierce beasts appear, even a level 25 monster that is close to evolution will be blown to pieces no matter how high its defense is. After all, this creature simply could not withstand a strong bombardment from grenades.

"In just over a week, life has really changed a lot. From being hungry to having a stomachache and not being able to sleep, to being able to eat three meals a day...... You can even play with pretty women once in a while. One of the militants, Xiao Ming, sighed gratefully.

He was the leader of the group, one of the militants who had worked for the Big Four, but surrendered when he met Bai Ze's team, who had just left the university at the time. As one of the first allegiances, his status was quite high among some soldiers.

A middle-aged militant with a shaved head chuckled, rummaged in his trouser pocket, and saw his comrades shake it slightly, "No kidding...... I can still smoke a cigarette once in a while. ”

", old man, what about yours?!"

". I'll finish it right away, and I'll get me one. ”

Amid laughter and sighs, there was a small commotion.

While talking, the conversation was interrupted by the roar of an engine, followed by gunshots. In the distance, a pickup truck wades up a cloud of dust. In the rear, two modified cars chased at full speed, sometimes firing at the pickup.

The face of the soldier in charge of guarding this place changed greatly, and Xiao Ming commanded in a deep voice: "Everyone, everyone is in place!" ”

The soldiers immediately went into action, and soon began to look for cover, pointing their guns at the front with a serious face. After a week of rigorous training and the killing of many zombies, these people are no longer as afraid of fighting as before.

One of the militants handed the horn to Xiao Ming, who shouted: "The vehicle in front! Stop now, or you'll be treated as an enemy and we'll fire immediately! I repeat! Stop now, or we'll fire right away! ”

In the front car, which was being chased by two other cars, a burly middle-aged man drove with an angry face. However, when he saw the barricade in front of him, his face changed slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

The middle-aged man is not alone. In the back seat sat an old man with a gunshot wound and a beautiful woman with a pale face.
