Chapter 444: The Noose Around the Neck

This New Year made people happy for several days, and the logistics department opened up the supply of materials, eating and drinking spicy, so that people gained several pounds in the New Year. All of them are a little oily, with fat heads and big ears.

The warm atmosphere in the team also made the newcomers led by Guo Mingfan, Liu Leping, and Gong Xiuli completely integrated into the team. The goal of "bringing everything back to the way things were" is not just a slogan, but a shared wish of the entire Doomsday team.

On the fifth day of the new year, led by Leng Yang, all the staff went to the "sky" mountain to worship the heroes who bravely sacrificed their lives for the team. Today's Doom Team is not a collection of survivors, they have their own goals, their own organizations, and even their own histories.

There is still a long way to go, and compared to the zombie hordes all over China, the Doomsday team is pitifully weak. To achieve their ambitious and somewhat unrealistic goals, people are just getting started. The warriors who died for this will always deserve respect, and without them there would be no Doomsday Team today.

"Shoot, salute!" In the sonorous command of the cold sun, the neat salute gun sounded, and the people standing in front of the cemetery raised their right hands in unison.

Huang Ling, Cao Zhongyuan and his wife, Chen Lu, Li Daqiang, Zhong Min, Li Zhiqiang, Zhao Dao, Zhang Qiang, and other comrades-in-arms who are buried here. The voices and smiles of these former comrades-in-arms flashed in front of Leng Yang one by one, he couldn't give up, he had to work hard. Because he already has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, that is what people expect from him.

In the apocalypse, there are not only songs and laughter, only clouds and light winds, but more people's bloody battles and people's struggles to survive. Don't think that everything is going well in the development of Shibaozhai base so far, on this road, it is the sacrificed comrades-in-arms who have completed it with their own lives.

The development of Shibaozhai has reached a bottleneck until now, and it is almost impossible to expand to the periphery. In order to survive, in order to keep up with the footsteps of the evolving zombies, Leng Yang and they must work harder, this world has been forcing people to move forward, and people can only be forced to keep moving forward on the road of life.

This sacrifice also shocked the new team members. When they joined the team, the team was strong enough to deal with the scattered zombie hordes as easily as chopping melons and vegetables. And the tombstones on the "Sky" mountain make these people who are almost forgetting the past recall that they are still in that apocalypse, that apocalypse full of zombies.

"Now that the year is almost over, everyone needs to return to normal life. If you have any suggestions, let's talk about them. Leng Yang sat on a chair in the conference room, gently stroking his clean chin with his hand, with the supervision of a woman these days, his personal hygiene is good.

The people in the command are also gradually recovering from the joy of the New Year, and they are responsible for the direction of the whole team. In a small county town, the team of hundreds of people is not enough to allow people to recuperate with peace of mind.

"I'll come first, we've taken the time to go to various counties to investigate in the past few days, and the zombie group is still like that, there is no sign of large-scale movement towards us, but the proportion of mutated zombies is gradually increasing." As soldiers, Feng Ye entered the working state faster than ordinary people.

People have expected this, and on the day of the end of the world, almost the entire city will be full of ordinary zombies. Then all kinds of mutated zombies, ironclad zombies, assassin zombies, and jumping zombies slowly appeared. Even without the existence of red monsters, these mutated zombies still appeared, from one by one, to piles, to groups.

"From what we know, it is already difficult to find large reserves of ammunition in the areas that we are able to explore. Unless we go to war with the zombie hordes in several nearby counties, it will be difficult for us to get a large amount of ammunition replenishment,"

Professor Guan Mingsi's words are very realistic, after owning Linjiang County, people's other daily necessities have been greatly replenished, but ammunition and food, the two most important materials, are still a little short. Fortunately, there are some warehouses in the nearby small villages and county towns, but there is no replenishment of guns and ammunition. Unless it can be clear that there is a supply of ammunition there, the Doomsday team, which cannot produce its own weapons at present, will not gain more than it gains.

Professor Guan Mingsi's brow furrowed, and his gray hair stood out in the conference room, and he continued. "Don't forget, the erosion of that strange fog will cause the metal to gradually corrode. If those weapons, ammunition, and industrial equipment wait a few years, then they will be the same as the three warhawks in the hangar! ”

The three Huaxia Kingdom's latest war eagles are an eternal pain in people's hearts, and people can only watch them slowly rust under the erosion of the fog as a symbol of powerful force, and can no longer gallop in the blue sky, and can no longer make the enemy frightened.

With a soft sound of "touch", Leng Yang threw a box of "Yellow Crane Tower Sky Tour" onto the long table in the conference room, and let people hold it by themselves. This is a super-high-end cigarette before the end of the world, and it costs more than 1,000 soft girl coins each.

Zhang Limeng frowned lightly and put the ashtray in front of Leng Yang. In the last days, people are under a lot of psychological pressure, and no one knows how long they can live. Every meeting is full of smoke, and they can only silently care about their men.

The base is developing well now, but the human resources are not enough for people to rebuild civilization, and the zombies will not give them that long time. And that strange fog is the real threat, it doesn't kill, and even now there are fewer germs in the air than before the apocalypse. But it corrodes people's civilization all the time.

Yan Shibin lit the cigarette in his hand and took a deep breath, "The technical department's current ability to reload bullets is only three to five thousand rounds per day, and if the manpower is increased, about 100 skilled workers can produce 10,000 rounds per day." ”

Before people could show joy, Yan Shibin continued to say a lot. "But our technology is very mediocre, and the reloaded shells can only be reused three times. And we only have a little reserve of explosives, and if we use our own black powder as a primer, we will need more technicians. ”

This middle-aged man is the technical backbone of the team, he is a soldier, and he has been working in the front line of the factory for a long time, and his words are the final conclusion of the technical department. Three times reused, and now the base is only five million rounds of ammunition, so the calculation is fifteen million, which is still not enough.

No one can shoot one at a time, especially in front of a large group of zombies, it is normal to miss, or several people to shoot at a target at the same time. Taking the team's best melee group as an example, then it is basically an average of three rounds of one mutant zombie and twenty-five rounds of one ironclad zombie. This bullet is simply not enough to support people to defeat Jiangcheng, which has at least millions of zombies.

"We have to go outside and look for ammunition." Zhou Lei slapped the desk and shook the tea and ashtray loudly. He followed Leng Yang from the beginning, and knew deeply that only by constantly fighting the zombie hordes could people get the materials they needed to survive.

From a small team of three men and more than ten women on the leisure villa, to today, the Doomsday team relies on constantly fighting the zombies that make people scared and afraid. They are not rats in the apocalypse, not by luck, but by their own bloody battles to get to where they are today.

"It's not just ammunition, we need a lot of manpower!" Several voices rang out in the conference room at the same time. First of all, Liu Wennan, the former engineer shouted loudly, "Just give me 5,000 people, no, 3,000 people." With a certain amount of equipment, we can guarantee the supply of reloading bullets and ensure the production of 50,000 rounds of bullets per day! ”

Liu Wennan's words made everyone in the conference room look at his face, if it can really be done, then people will really be able to gradually start to eliminate zombies. Instead of being like now, because of worries, watching the zombie group gradually grow and develop.

"Is that true?" Leng Yang hurriedly pulled out an ancient sentence, his hands grabbed the edge of the table, but his whole body leaned forward vigorously, his eyes full of excitement.

Liu Wennan bit his lip, and the technical personnel did not dare to exaggerate, "We also need some equipment, ammunition and other equipment, and every large city will inevitably have an arsenal." With the training of workers, I estimate that it will take about half a year to a year before we can reach that output. ”

Although Liu Wennan's demands are too many to be realized in a short period of time, after all, it is a way, and people cannot live forever by seizing them. The arsenal and manpower were firmly remembered by Leng Yang, which was the most important target besides ammunition.

Ever since the otaku had seen those three rusty war eagles, he had died in his heart for high-tech warfare. Now all he has in his eyes is rifles and bullets, at most they are similar to bazookas, small guys like five or seven cannons, and large heavy weapons, and he no longer has any reverie.

After Liu Wennan finished speaking, Feng Ye also stood up and said, "We need a lot of manpower, and now we have laid down Linjiang County, but in fact, our range of activities is only a few kilometers of the new base, at most to the first line of the wharf." Without manpower, we simply cannot do enough control, restore production, and consolidate national defense. ”

In a small area, the team can now rely on the mobility of the car to move quickly, but the weak force of the people cannot control the entire Linjiang County at all. Without manpower, even if they conquered Jiangcheng, just carrying the supplies in the city would be enough to make people work hard for months.

But where did this person go to find it, the team near the county town searched all over it, but what they harvested was a large number of survivor corpses. "By the way, the number of people and ammunition that survive in the wild will be reduced with the passage of time, the scarcity of food, and even climate change. If only we are left in the whole of China, then all efforts will be meaningless! ”

Xiang Yuning's words tightened people's heartstrings again, originally there were seven or eight hundred or even thousands of survivors in Linjiang County, but when the team rescued, there were only five or six hundred. This is still the corpse that people have seen, not counting those who have long since turned into white bones and are buried in the mud and sand.

"Damn, I thought that after having a base, we could start to develop steadily and steadily, it turns out that the world is still forcing us to move forward."

The gradually corroding industrial products, and those who are struggling on the brink of life and death, are the nooses tied to Leng Yang's neck, which are slowly and silently retracting. This is a great threat, but it can slowly suffocate the entire Doom team.

If there are no more machines in this world that can be activated, there will be no more manpower to replenish. In the face of hundreds of millions of zombies that are still mutating, and the zombie hordes with red monsters as the leader will undoubtedly crush the weak Doomsday team, even if they are heroic in the cold sun!
