Chapter 287: Heavy Rain

Rain, endless heavy rain.

Whether it is a city or a village, there is no distinction in the face of rain, and it rains heavily in some areas, and there are even extremely heavy rains in some places.

In just a few days, the cumulative rainfall has reached more than 300 millimeters, and there has been no human maintenance and management, 80 percent of the street drainage capacity is almost paralyzed, the waterlogging is serious, and the turbid and smelly water has almost flooded the city.

The two forces that exchanged fire had restricted their access everywhere and even suffered from flooding, damaging many vehicles.

As a result, the battlefield had to be shifted from the urban areas with many high-rise buildings to the suburbs.

The confrontation was chaotic, because not only people, but also thousands of zombies planning to join in the excitement and gather in front of the view blocked by the rain.

Bullets flew everywhere, and in the mud-spattered space, the running figures were pitch black.

Gunshots, rain, thunder...... The icy rain could not extinguish the flames of war, and the smoke disturbed the purity of the wasteland, and the blood of men, zombies, and parasites poured out of the wounds and collected on the ground with the rain.

The blood stinks so much that even the earth can't drink it......

The zombies probably didn't want people to kill each other, and they eventually succeeded in dividing the battlefield, forcing two groups of people to evacuate.

However, some unexpected circumstances proved that their withdrawal was wise.

On another night, the water level of many rivers and lakes continued to rise, seriously exceeding the warning water level, and the heavy rainfall area produced a superimposed effect, the embankment was soaked by high water level, and the rice fields near the Shantang reservoir and small and medium-sized rivers began to appear in danger such as pipe surges, leaks, and even collapses.

Floods inundated some areas, washed away countless homes, and swept zombies into rivers and soaked to death.

……

Makeshift camps have been set up on higher ground around the nuclear base, generators have been activated, and some functional equipment has been energized and operational.

Dozens of large and small vehicles form a tight circle to form a protective wall, and inside, there is a sandbag wall made of piles, which can isolate rainwater and can also be used as a combat defense line.

Inside the camp, hundreds of army-green tents were erected, each of which was nailed and very strong, and there were water diversion ditches dug on both sides.

Detachments of soldiers, dressed in raincoats and armed with weapons, dutifully patrolled around the perimeter.

In the evening, Wang Tu arrived at the nuclear base by special car, bringing with him a large number of life jackets, sacks, and other tools, as well as assault boats, hovercrafts, and other vehicles transported by large tractors, to cope with the flood disaster that could break out at any time due to the continuous torrential rain.

Tanya, Iron Rooster, and Qi Dingshan led the team to greet and lead the commander into the largest tent...... Forward command post.

The inside is spacious enough and brightly lit, with a wide combat table in the middle, a large vertical TV on one side, and a strategic topographic map of Koto City hanging on the other.

"It's raining so hard, and I don't know when it's going to rain, so I've taken care of the food and everything, right? Don't get damp and moldy...... "Wang Tu was covered in cold air, wiped his face with a hot towel, and felt much more comfortable.

"Everything is arranged," Qi Dingshan said, pausing, a little entangled: "Sir, I ......"

Tanya had already reported to the commander on his behalf about the conflict with fate a few days ago, but Qi Dingshan knew very well in his heart that it was because of his recklessness that it directly led to the deviation of the main actions of Xinghuo Town...... After all, Spark Town's large-scale mobilization of forces is not to run to fight with others.

The impact is far more than that, the friction between the two sides wastes a lot of manpower and material resources, and the military is stationed at the nuclear base at least two days late. The most important thing is that fate has already understood the plan of Xinghuo Town, and has begun to extend its tentacles to the nuclear base frequently, if it is not for the torrential rain, the conflict between the two sides may reach an extremely hot level.

The more thoroughly the analysis was made after the fact, the more annoyed Qi Dingshan became, the commander treated himself well, and as the deputy captain of the town guard, he really shouldn't put personal enmity into his work.

"The sir has been traveling all the way, let's eat first." Tanya interrupted Qi Dingshan's words, stepped forward to help the king tie down his windbreaker, and hung it aside.

In the corner of the long table, the incubator was already placed, and she flipped open the lid and took out plates of steaming dishes from it.

"What dish? It smells so good, have you eaten it? Wang Tu bumped all the way, a little motion sickness, and at this moment he smelled the fragrance, and his stomach barked sluggishly.

"Plum cabbage button pork, braised lion's head, charcoal-grilled beef leg ......" Iron Rooster played with a pen in his hand and reported the name of the dish next to it.

"I've made too many dishes, so I'll finish eating." Wang Tu pulled over the chair and sat down, picking up chopsticks.

"What is lacking now is grain and vegetables, but there is no shortage of meat, and the deformed animals reproduce very quickly, and they are running everywhere." Tanya shrugged and brought out the last dish, a thick pot of hot and sour soup.

"Add vinegar and chili oil, drink it while it's hot, and go to the cold." Tanya spooned a bowl and placed it next to the king.

"Okay." Wang Tu was not polite, took a few bites of food, and drank the soup, which was really sour and spicy, and extremely appetizing.

"You all sit down," Wang Tu pointed to the row of empty seats opposite with his chopsticks and smiled, "By the way, tell me where your respective work has progressed." ”

"Yes!" Everyone sat down and pulled out their notebooks, which listed the contents that had been summarized in advance.

The task of renovating the underground base belongs to the current central work, which is the most critical, urgent and even heavy, so the iron rooster was the first to speak, he got up and saluted, and after sitting down, he cleared his throat and looked like a person.

"Chief, initially, concrete, cement, bricks, stones, wood, bamboo, glass, metals, engineering plastics, composite materials were brought from Xinghuo Town...... About 30 tons, which is far from enough, and there is still a big gap in special materials such as waterproof and moisture-proof, fireproof and flame retardant, anti-corrosion, sound insulation, heat insulation and thermal insulation......"

"Among them, there is another problem that cannot be ignored, that is, in the underground base, there is radiation energy everywhere, and ordinary people cannot approach it at all, and this special situation will seriously affect the progress of gold mining......

After the iron rooster finished speaking, Tanya followed closely to report.

"There is a serious safety hazard of radiation leakage at the nuclear base, and our team cannot get too close, which will also lead to the military defense line that we have built on the underground base will be stretched for a long ......time."

"In the surrounding area, after careful detection, the number of zombies is not much, the main threat is the Destiny Company, due to the conflict of interest, it is impossible for us to develop harmoniously with them......" Tanya said this, as if unintentionally glanced at Qi Dingshan, and said coldly: "Yesterday the military dogs found a reconnaissance team of theirs, a total of six people, killed four, two were arrested, I pried open the captive's mouth, the next step, fate is against us, there will be a big operation, we must be strictly guarded against......"

Zhang Qiang stayed in Xinghuo Town and didn't come over, and the person who presided over the office management here was a middle-aged man named Niu Dongliang.

It is said that he served as a soldier, opened a listed company, went bankrupt due to persecution, and struggled to survive by delivering food for his life.

Here, he got a wife, had a hot meal, and lived in a warm and safe house, so he chose to work for Xinghuo Town without hesitation.

Wang Tu himself, he had seen it for the first time, and before, he had only heard of it countless times. It's so young, he sighed in his heart, and then reported seriously.

"The flood has washed away many traffic arteries, and one section of National Highway 377 has even been covered by mudslides, so we have to build a few heavy machinery, set up an engineering team, and organize emergency repairs and disaster relief ...... as soon as possible."

"At present, there are many engineering projects that need to be promoted, and the transportation team will be fully operational to collect all kinds of materials needed for construction, but I think it is still necessary to adhere to the principle of taking materials nearby...... Now that there is heavy rain and the water level in many places is above the warning line, we may be able to use boats to transport equipment to save the distance......"

……

After a meal, after eating for a long time, the chopsticks in Wang Tu's hand stopped many times, but he never spoke, he knew very well in his heart that in the progress of the work, there would inevitably be various problems, but he was not interested in listening to other people's reminders, he just wanted to know...... Yes, how to fix it.
