Everyone is gathering firewood and the flames are high,

There is strength in numbers.

Li Yu walked on the wall of Oil City, overlooking the trading market and the buffer city in the distance.

The construction site is densely packed with people everywhere.

The sight of tens of thousands of workers building it together is extremely shocking.

But it also means that a lot of food is consumed every day.

After successfully harvesting grain in the northern grain growing area and the buffer city of Da Zhangshu Base.

With thousands of tons of grain reserves in the oil city, Uncle San dared to recruit workers vigorously and went all out to build the trading market project and the buffer city.

This is the productivity that bursts out after having massive amounts of food.

Today's big camphor tree forces in the three places have formed a positive cycle after accumulating for many years.

The larger the planting area, the more food can be produced, and the more people can be fed. The greater productivity can be exerted, and a wider area can be built to grow food, and then feed more people.

Advance step by step.

It has only been ten days since the buffer city wall was built. The foundation on the east side has been completed, and the construction of the foundation on the south side of the wall has actually begun.

This construction speed is more than ten times faster than the buffer city of Da Zhangshu Headquarters.

I think the buffer city at the Da Zhangshu headquarters base lasted on and off for nearly a year.

This was not only due to manpower shortage, but also affected by natural disasters, which put it on hold for a long time.

.......

Buffer city wall construction site.

A scene of construction in full swing.

Tens of thousands of people are busy here, and the sky is filled with dust.

Wu Xing sat on the roof of the car, looking at the construction site of Nuo University, and sighed to Zhang Tianfu next to him:

"Old Zhang, our oil city is very generous. This is the first time I have seen such a big scene in the apocalypse."

Zhang Tianfu pressed the magazine in his hand back into the gun and waved the white smoke that blew over.

"Feeding so many people is not an easy task."

"A few days ago, the transportation team delivered grain. I heard it was thousands of tons. This is the most impressive batch!"

When Wu Xing heard the word "food", he sighed:

"Yes, if our Southern Paradise had sufficient food, we wouldn't have to integrate into the Oil City."

"It's truly remarkable that Oil City can still produce so much food in the apocalypse."

Zhang Tianfu smiled and said:

"But... after integrating into Oil City, life will be much easier, isn't it?"

"certainly!"

Wu Xing nodded heavily and said:

"City Master Li is also a kind and kind person. After taking over our Southern Paradise, he did not exclude others and gave us the treatment of third-level personnel, which is really good."

"At least I have food and drink, so I don't have to go hungry anymore."

Zhang Tianfu looked to the south and said with emotion:

"This should be the treatment that Mr. Hu fought for for us. I don't know how his old man is doing."

"If you have a chance, I'd better go and see him."

Hearing Zhang Tianfu mention Tiger Lord, Wu Xing felt a little heavy.

"How is Master Hu's health lately?"

A few months ago, Mr. Hu's doctor had pronounced that Mr. Hu would not survive more than two months.

But after going to the sanatorium at the Da Zhangshu headquarters base, he is still alive today.

Zhang Tianfu replied:

"I heard from the minister that Mr. Hu no longer needs to lie in bed, he can already walk, and his physical condition is pretty good."

"Tsk."

Speaking of this, Zhang Tianfu couldn't help but sigh.

"This headquarters base is really strong. It can only produce so much food, and the medical level is so good. If I have the chance, I really want to visit the headquarters base."

Hearing what he said, Wu Xing also looked forward to the headquarters base.

According to Zhang Rufeng, who has been to the headquarters base,

Although the headquarters base is quieter, it is more like a paradise.

Sizzling——

At this moment, a voice came from Wu Xing's walkie-talkie.

"Team Wu, there are about a dozen zombies coming over from Jigong Mountain... they appear out of nowhere..."

Wu Xing quickly replied: "Just kill him, you still have to ask me about this kind of thing."

After speaking, he thought for a while, picked up the walkie-talkie and continued:

"Wait, I'll come over."

He quickly inserted the walkie-talkie back into his chest, and then said to Zhang Tianfu:

"I'm going to go there. Someone should be guarding the main road over there. There are zombies that appear out of nowhere. I have to go there myself."

"Okay, I'll watch over here at the construction site." Zhang Tianfu nodded.

Wu Xing jumped out of the car, walked to a pickup truck opposite, took a few people and drove towards Jigong Mountain.

The buffer city is very large, much larger than the buffer city at the Da Zhangshu Headquarters Base.

Therefore, the length of the wall must be much longer.

Although it is daytime now, due to the accumulation of clouds, guards need to be outside to protect the construction workers.

To prevent zombies from breaking into the construction site and affecting the normal construction of the project.

Wu Xing and Zhang Tianfu both belonged to the militia brigade and were captains of the 12th and 13th brigades.

Each led two hundred militiamen to patrol around the buffer city construction site to ensure the safety of the construction site.

.......

Wu Xing hurriedly drove the vehicle to the east intersection.

There are ten militiamen here at the fork in the road, guarding the main road.

Avoid zombies coming from the main road.

Several trucks transporting materials passed by, and Wu Xing parked the truck on the curb.

He shook off the dust in front of his eyes, covered his mouth and nose, and walked over.

Due to the recent large-scale construction, many transport trucks are carrying construction materials, such as some sand and gravel passing by. It is inevitable that sand and gravel will fall when the vehicles vibrate.

In addition, it has not rained in recent months, and the air is extremely dry.

This caused several cars to drive by, kicking up dust all over the sky.

In the dust, Wu Xing walked up to the men stationed here.

"Brother Xing, these zombies appeared from the main road, but at the checkpoint in front, they all said they didn't see any zombies. It's very possible that the zombies ran out of the mountains." His subordinates said quickly.

Wu Xing glanced at him and said, "Zombies are not that smart. They will avoid people? Are you kidding me?"

He squatted down and took a closer look at the zombies. The zombies were a little wet on the surface, as if they had just crawled out of the water.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wu Xing discovered this keenly.

water?

The ditches around the trading market have long since dried up.

But these zombies look like they just walked out of the water.

"Dumb, where is the water near here?"

His subordinate Dumb smiled and replied:

"Water, how can there be water nearby? It hasn't rained in almost five or six months. Where can the water come from..."

As he spoke, he suddenly looked towards the distance of the road.

After reacting, he said:

"There is water. There is a ditch in front of it that transports water from Nanwan Lake to Oil City. There is a wellhead right there."

The ditch from Nam Van Lake to the trading market is 10 kilometers long, two meters long and wide, and is buried underground.

In order to prevent the ditch from being blocked by sediment and garbage when transporting water, there is a wellhead every few hundred meters.

The well head can be descended from the ground into the trench.

After turning off the water diversion switch, you can clean up the garbage inside.
