Chapter 1719

Zhang Xiaoqiang, dressed up neatly and fresh, didn't see Hao'er. Just as he walked out of the door, he saw Zhang Huai'an and Wang Le waiting for the door. When he saw him coming out, he immediately surrounded him and nodded to say hello. Looking at the two old men in front of him, Zhang Xiaoqiang shook his head helplessly. When he returned to the base, he not only felt the warmth of his home, but also shouldered the responsibility of 100000 survivors, Zhang Xiaoqiang also accompanied Wang Le and Zhang Huai'an to inspect the military factory inside the base.

The cockroach base is not as narrow as the hot spring base. It is made up of mountains and valleys. If you want to walk from head to tail, you have to have a car. It takes half an hour to get there. Zhang Xiaoqiang, who is sitting in a military vehicle, observes the fields on both sides of the road. The busy people in the fields are everywhere. After he got angry about the food problem, the fat Cook made great efforts to rectify it, It's not too late to mend a dead sheep. Although we have said the best time to sow, the end of the world is an era of miracles. As long as the seeds germinate, we can always harvest some makers.

There are traces of fighting everywhere. In some places, there are still large areas of anxiety. Some white bones can be seen in the black ashes. From time to time, we can see weeds growing crazily on the roadside. These weeds grow in the most unlikely places, various rock crevices, roadside drainage channels, and some rock gullies without soil.

"It's strange that weeds grow up in places where zombies are dead. I have a look at them. Many weeds are only a little bit of soil the size of fingernails. If we can guarantee the water supply, they can grow more than ten kilograms. If only these weeds were grain, we don't have many livestock and we can't use up all the fodder. We have to send people to cut them down, It's a waste of time

Zhang Huai'an pointed to the weeds outside and said this to Zhang Xiaoqiang in the tone of eight trigrams. When he said this, Zhang Xiaoqiang's eyebrows immediately wrinkled, which made Zhang Huai'an feel guilty and thought that he had said something wrong. Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't blame Zhang Huai'an, but thought about the grassland army, The corpse liquid of zombie has a general catalytic effect on the growth of plants and makers. Why doesn't Hubei base know the effect of corpse liquid? You know, the grassland Corps can easily feed more than one million people, that is, they are recovering a large number of farmland, at the same time, they also have zombies as resources, and they continue to produce grain hoarding. Even if it is conservatively estimated that only the Yellow River irrigation area in Yinchuan region has produced grain that can meet the consumption of three million people for one year in at least eight months, let alone the research on various new mutant plants.

"The Perilla wood pulp I had with you just now tastes good. How many people in the base can drink it?"

Perilla wood pulp is produced from mutant plants. Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't know that the base's research work on mutant plants had reached such a stage. Perilla wood pulp, which can replace milk, is obviously the best nutrition. If it can be provided in large quantities, it will not only be good for the army, but also for the minors. I heard Zhang Xiaoqiang's inquiry, Zhang Huaian laughed bitterly

"That thing can be regarded as a luxury now. There are only a few perilla trees nearby. We sent a large number of people to find only a hundred. These perilla trees are big and small. The bigger ones can produce one cup a day, and the smaller ones can only produce more than ten milliliters. The total daily production is less than 5000 milliliters, In addition to satisfying mupeipei and Haoer, they can also satisfy Ke'er. As for other people, they can taste it every so often. "

Zhang Xiaoqiang nodded to know. It seems that the grassland army did not share the results. Although he did not know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Zhang Xiaoqiang did not like this practice. Even if the grassland army did not have a bad idea, it was enough to explain the generation of the faction. As he had guessed before, if he was gone, All the forces established in his hands will disintegrate immediately. Except for the Hubei base, other forces can keep face at most, but they will never listen to the orders of the management of the Hubei base.

After frowning and pondering for a while, Zhang Xiaoqiang found that he had no good way, not only the grassland corps, but also the underground city's song kunhai, Zhuo Mingyue's forces, and the Russian subordinates on Longhua island would not listen to orders. They could obey Zhang Xiaoqiang, but they would never obey others. If Zhang Xiaoqiang were them, it would be the same, At this time, he understood why the founding emperor always liked to slaughter the meritorious officials. Even a few wise people would remove the military power of those meritorious officials occasionally, or let them enjoy the title of nobility, infatuated with wine and beauty, or give them money to return to their hometown. Frankly speaking, Zhang Xiaoqiang was faced with this kind of situation, once he was gone, Those leading generals who have real power in their hands can easily become warlords. At that time, it will be a blessing rather than a disaster.

"From now on, the plant research center will be set up as a first-class confidential unit. It will find a valley that can be closed in the mountain area nearby, and send the most loyal team to take over the defense. No one will be allowed to enter or leave easily. It will mobilize materials from Wuhan to ensure the consumption of the research center to the maximum extent, and then record all the discovered mutant plants, Let Xu Jing come back to preside over the research center. "

Speaking of Xu Jing, Zhang Xiaoqiang remembers his previous battle briefing. The zombies in Hubei base fought against Wuhan. They fought hard and excellently in the early stage, and the form was bad and bad. In the end, the whole cockroach base was about to be destroyed. Even Zhao Deyi's troops, who were sent to guard the three mountains, couldn't support them. They had to turn to the Yangtze River fleet. At the last moment, they were killed, Zhao Deyi's troops rescued by the Yangtze River fleet recovered the outer wall, cut off the way back for the zombies, and had to give up the attack. Instead of attacking, they retreated. In the air battle of chasing and killing the new era seeker, they found the zombie Z2 in the zombie sea, dropped the intelligent bomb, and finally won the final victory. On the basis of this victory, the source of erosion played a great role, If it wasn't for this, it would be a problem whether the zombies could be disposed of as quickly as possible, and whether Zhao Deyi and the elite commandos could occupy the wall.Xu Jing is a high-tech military talent bought by Zhang Xiaoqiang. Originally, he thought it was just a waste. He eventually made a giant chain saw to solve the problem of the giant black fish. Later, through the giant black fish, he found the source of erosion and solved the problem of D3 zombies breaking through the wall and entering the gathering place. It can be said that without Xu Jing, the fighting in the gathering place on that day was still unknown, There is no doubt that Xu Jing's achievements have saved tens of thousands of survivors and thousands of soldiers.

Zhang Huai'an doesn't ask what role the plant research center plays. As long as it's Zhang Xiaoqiang's order, he will complete it unconditionally. However, Wang Le hears Xu Jing's coming back and thinks about what he is thinking. Xu Jing is the treasure of Zhenshan in Hubei base, and what it may mean for Zhang Xiaoqiang to let Xu Jing come back. Wang Le has great expectations for this. Wang Bing is his dry son, In the gathering place, Xu Jing has cooperated with Xu Jing. Now they are very close. Xu Jing is almost his daughter-in-law, but Xu Jing still has a layer of identity. Zhang Xiaoqiang bought Xu Jing at the beginning. If Xu Jing wants to be with Wang Bing, Zhang Xiaoqiang has to agree. How to make Zhang Xiaoqiang promise to come down is difficult, at least Wang Le feels sleepy.

"How many zombies did you catch?"

If you want to start a plant research center, you must have fertilizer. Zombies are the best fertilizer. Zhang Xiaoqiang's inquiry made Zhang Huai'an dull. Although there were hundreds of thousands of zombies left in the base after the death of Z2 zombies at that time, these zombies were all killed in the army's encirclement and suppression, and scattered numbers sent elite soldiers to shoot at close range, A large number of them are corroded by corrosion sources. The sea of zombies that come and go is completely destroyed. Where can he find the living zombies?

Zhang Huaian's silence, Zhang Xiaoqiang clearly, since the Hubei base does not know the potential of zombies, and will not have the habit of leaving zombies, he can't help but remind us:

"Order Zhao Deyi's troops to capture zombies as much as possible, starting from the evolutionary zombies. The higher the level, the greater the credit. Improve the reward base, and let them catch more than 3000 evolutionary zombies for the cockroach base, There are more than 300 type 2 zombies. In the future, these zombies will be one of our most valuable resources. In addition, when cleaning up the battlefield, all the zombies that are not dead are not allowed to be killed. They are all brought back. "

When the zombie affair came to an end, Zhang Xiaoqiang and Wang Le entered the barracks of the cockroach base. As soon as they entered, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw rows of neat machines processing all kinds of raw materials and parts in the roar. Looking around, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw thousands of gun barrels lined up on the wooden frame in the corner, and each gun barrel was black and shiny, The blue of the barrel reflects its luster in the natural light.

"These are the barrels made by ourselves. The most easily damaged barrel of previous rifles is the barrel. When it is broken, there is nothing to change. Soldiers usually dare not do shooting training for fear of reducing the life span of guns. Before we found the weapons depot of airborne army, we had no way to deal with the damaged weapons. Later, we found the machinery of Hanyang ordnance repair Institute, Only in this way can we make our own barrel. In the future, we don't have to worry about anything except ammunition. "

Talking about the barrel, Wang Le is very proud. In the sniping battle in the gathering place, 80% of the rifles have problems. At the worst, almost all the tens of thousands of rifles in the militia's Arsenal are damaged. Once the rifles are damaged, even the firesticks are inferior. At a critical moment, the soldiers can only use bayonets and lose hand to hand combat. Now it's better, He took over some of the machinery of the original Hanyang ordnance factory. In addition to the large amount of raw materials that the army hoarded in the ordnance factory, they also had the capital to maintain their equipment.

Zhang Xiaoqiang highly appreciates the hoarding of spare barrel. It has always been restricted by the military industry. The combat effectiveness of the army has not been improved rapidly. The legacy before the end of the world is rich. Weapons depots and equipment of various sizes are constantly found. However, these equipment are restricted by logistics, and there is no complete industrial system. No matter how good the weapons are or how much ammunition there are, If the soldiers can win one by one in the front line, the biggest project is logistics. There is no reloading, no smooth transportation, and there is not enough wasted ammunition and materials to provide the basis for their victory.

In addition to the barrel, 80% of the rifle parts can be made here. These 80% parts are enough to assemble a rifle. Except for some parts that need special engineering plastics, there are basically no problems with other parts. Moreover, they have got a lot of brass and plate rolling machines in Wuhan. With these things, they can make their own cartridge cases, Although the output is not very large, the monthly output is only more than 300000 rounds, but it is gratifying enough compared with the previous only rejuvenating ammunition.

"Our next plan is to make our own cars, engines, chassis and so on. We have gained a lot in Wuhan this time. We found a large-scale factory specializing in the production of off-road vehicles. Unfortunately, the original technicians of the factory are gone. We have equipment and materials, but no one understands it. I heard that there is a guy in Yinchuan who is very good, We can optimize all kinds of equipment and machinery. If only we can get them. Maybe we can also build high-power engines. "

Wang Le is no longer focusing on military industry, and Wuhan is in a good situation. Most of the zombies in the surrounding cities are concentrated in the suburbs and gradually spread to the surrounding fields. The search team is also easier to find materials and various firearms than before. In addition, when the zombies leave the central area of the city, some survivors living in every corner can find something to eat before they starve to death. Therefore, their current focus is no longer fighting for survival, For the first time, development has surpassed military development. The way of development is transportation. With enough vehicles and the greatest improvement of transportation capacity, resources and raw materials scattered everywhere can be concentrated, transformed into various finished products, and supplied to the base to improve productivity and development. In this way, they can get rid of the dilemma of relying on the heritage of previous generations and really stand up, Even if they can't find them, they can make them themselves."Don't aim too high. We've only been developing for two years. Now the most important thing is to try our best to attract survivors. The population of Hubei is several times that of the border areas, and the number of survivors is less than one tenth of that of the border areas. That's no good. In order to have enough productivity and depth, we have to open up contacts within several spheres of influence, Only in this way can we have enough confidence to defeat all our enemies.

At present, we still focus on storing ammunition and food. After all, we haven't reached the time of complete safety. When I came from the coast and passed through Shanghai, less than 10% of the zombies left in the center of the city. Most of the zombies left the city. The speed of zombies moving is far lower than I expected, but they will come one day, Don't rely too much on the source of erosion. Any accident may happen. We should have all kinds of plans and records just in case. "
