Dingwu Expressway.

An off-road vehicle sped by.

The atmosphere in the car was extremely solemn.

They were Yuan Zhi and others who were attacked at the central defender.

After being attacked, they did not take Tian Yunxiao with them.

Yuan Zhi was in a dilemma.

Go back and save him, maybe everyone will have to stay over there.

In desperation, they could only abandon Tian Yunxiao and move on.

However, because Tian Yunxiao was caught, everyone knew Tian Yunxiao's urine quality, and one thousand percent would confess that they were going to Lanshi.

I couldn't go to Lan City, so I took a detour and took the Dingwu Expressway to go to Wuwei first.

If you can't stay in Wuwei, continue walking northwest.

Before the end of the world, although the environment in the northwest was not suitable for human survival.

The population is also relatively small.

But it has become an advantage in the end times.

Fewer people means fewer zombies.

If you keep going northwest, after passing Wuwei, you can still go to Zhangye or Jiayuguan.

These places are relatively safe, at least logically speaking.

"Governor, it seems that our plan is right. Along the way, there are many fewer zombies on the roadside." Wang An broke the silence in the car and said.

They all tacitly refrained from mentioning the events of the previous two days.

"Well..." Yuan Zhi replied calmly.

His complexion is not very good and he is already old.

In addition, he suffered a huge blow in the northern border and was displaced all the way. His physical fitness could not compare with young people like Yuan Luo.

Along the way he was either sleeping or half asleep.

There are very few sober states like now.

Yuan Luo took out a bottle of water and said to Yuan Zhi, "Brother, drink some water."

As he spoke, he unscrewed the lid and handed it over.

Yuan Zhi took it and took a small sip.

He took a long breath and said:

"These days, I know everyone is very tired, and they are bumping along with me, alas..."

"However, everyone must believe that what cannot kill us will eventually make us stronger..."

Yuan Zhi knew that the mentality of several people was not very good, so he gave everyone a chicken blood injection just like he did in the north.

Only this time, several people understood this situation.

There is almost no possibility of a comeback.

Unless...unless they can find a force more powerful than Oil City, and this force is willing to help them.

Is this possible?

No one thinks there is.

But after hearing what Yuan Zhi said, everyone knew what he meant.

So they all responded verbally, cheering up and appearing very passionate.

....

....

Big camphor tree base.

Li Yu was in the inner city as usual, running and exercising every morning.

After breakfast, I accompanied Yutong for a walk in the inner city.

In the afternoon, I patrolled the outer city and handled some matters in the base.

In fact, there wasn't much that he needed to do. The second uncle left all the internal affairs of the base to Li Hang and Li Tie.

There is also He Chao taking care of the outer city.

So he only needs to show his face outside every day, and there is nothing else for him to do.

Today he came to the outer city duty room as usual.

Seeing Li Tie put down the radio headset in the duty room, he asked:

"Second uncle has arrived in the north, right?"

"Well, my second uncle just contacted me and they just arrived." Li Tie replied.

Li Yu nodded after hearing this and walked out of the duty room.

Standing on the outer city wall, overlooking the surroundings, you can see the construction site in the distance.

Today, most of the trees within three kilometers of the Da Zhangshu base have been cut down, leaving only a small part of the forest.

Especially between the outer city wall and the third layer of wall, only a very small part remains.

The construction of the third layer of walls is progressing at a gratifying rate. Most of the foundations have been completed, and a two-meter-high wall has been built in areas where progress is rapid.

In the first stage, the third layer of the wall only needs to be built to a height of four meters, which can provide a relatively safe living space for many collaborators.

After the first phase of the construction project is completed, the fence will be widened, heightened, and partitioned to isolate each area.

In the second phase, less important industries in the city inside and outside the base will be moved outside.

Nowadays, the area inside and outside the city is basically being used, and the manpower is actually not enough.

Most of the people in the inner and outer cities are combatants, and the rest are base internal staff. The manpower in agriculture and industry is somewhat tight.

And some people wear multiple hats.

But there is nothing we can do about it. To ensure the safety of the inner and outer cities, we must control the entry of people.

Perhaps when some industries are later transferred outside and then handed over to some non-staff personnel, it should be greatly relieved.

In addition to industrial relocation, greenhouses must be built simultaneously to maximize land utilization.

Many times, the zombie tide passes through, and although it is not as large as locusts, it will trample the originally planted crops into a mess.

Building a greenhouse should be able to provide some protection.

However, in the planting area within the third layer of walls, this part of the wall still needs to be raised higher to prevent zombies from damaging the crops.

Seeing Lao Bi driving a vehicle to patrol the construction site outside, Li Yu felt a little emotional.

As the Da Zhangshu base moves out, the people in the base are also flowing out.

Third uncle, Ju Tianrui, Lao Xie, Lao Yi, and Xiao Jun have all gone to the north and Oil City.

Currently, all three places are under construction in great strides.

And all three places are absorbing refugees, and their populations are increasing day by day.

What follows is food pressure.

As time goes by, Li Yu's positioning of the three places becomes increasingly clear.

The northern border adapted to local conditions and used its vast space to become an agricultural planting point, producing a large amount of food supply.

The Oil City produces oil, and the trading bazaar it manages is responsible for trade transactions and obtains profit resources from the transactions.

Part of the benefits obtained from these two places is retained locally, and the other part is transferred to the Da Zhangshu Base.

But both the oil city and the northern border have their advantages and disadvantages.

Even though Oil City used the ancient cemetery to build plantations, it still could not supply food for the entire Oil City population.

In the northern border, most of the industry has been transferred to Da Zhangshu Base and Oil City, and it only has agriculture and certain defensive capabilities.

Therefore, neither Oil City nor the Northern Territory can be independent. They must rely on the Da Zhangshu Base to survive in the long term.

The reason for doing this is that Li Yu is worried that if the distance is too far, he will be easily controlled by someone with malicious intentions in the future, and then rebel.

Only the Da Zhangshu Base has truly reached the pinnacle of industry, agriculture, and defense.

Oil City is only used as a bridgehead and test point until the trading market is successfully verified.

It can be completely operated at the base of Dazhangshu.

"Brother."

Li Tie's voice came from behind, interrupting Li Yu's meditation.
